VlogMEETING FARZA
A Video byVikrant PatankarFeaturingFarza MajeedMusicTyler, The Creator
In early 2024, Farza Majeed put out a call for his "Dream Team." Instead of sending a quiet application, Vikrant made a full production out of his pitch, proving his filmmaking chops by doing the thing itself. Farza noticed. They hopped on a Google Meet. He encouraged Vikrant to come to San Francisco and even helped push the visa process along.The Dream Team project got shelved — but the public pitch had already taken on a life of its own. It caught the eye of Composio CEO Soham Ganatra, and Vikrant became the founding filmmaker at Composio. A freelance product designer from a Mumbai chawl was now making films for a San Francisco startup.This vlog is the full-circle moment. Vikrant finally meets Farza in person, and they sit down to trace the whole unlikely chain of events — from a forwarded LinkedIn DM, to a viral application video, to a career that didn't exist six months prior. Farza insists he barely did anything. Vikrant disagrees. The truth is somewhere in between: one person's post became the catalyst, but it only worked because someone else chose to take destiny into their own hands.Read the story yourself in Farza's words
