Damn, can't believe that the Indians (or dhotis for some here) have reached the pinnacle of the Banking sector now. First it was the ailrine industry and then the IT sector and now they've gone to bag the biggest prize out there. Instead of us Neps blasting dhotis at every step, there are a few I'm proud to take my hat off to. Seems like we're still way behind them in terms of their achievements in the US Corporations:

Vikram Pandit: CEO Citibank

Ramani Ayer: Hartford Financial

Indra Nooyi: CEO Pepsi Co

Vinod Khosla, co-founder of Sun Microsystems

Sabeer Bhatia, founder of HotMail

Professor Amar Bose, founder of Bose sound systems

Rakesh Gangwal: CEO US Airways

Subodh Karnik: CEO ATA Airlines

Raj Gupta: CEO Rohm and Haas

Rajat Gupta: McKinsey and Co aka "The" Firm

 

Lets try and emulate them instead of labeling everyone from India as being stereotyipical dhotis.  I'd love to see a Nepali make it too the list too...Hopefully someday!!
