The Dhaka Times Desk A teacher named Baiju Rabindran has become the owner of thousands of crores of rupees through an initiative to make children focus on their studies!
Getting children out of cartoons and into reading is a very difficult task. It is not an easy task to divert their attention from entertainment to study. So this school teacher Baiju Rabindran decided to teach by playing. He became a billionaire in just 7 years by moving forward with that new venture.
He used to get a salary of ten thousand rupees at the end of the month, now his wealth is about 5.7 billion US dollars (which is 48 thousand 149 crores in rupees)!
Of course, this property did not come to him just like that. Teacher Baiju Ravindran started a company called 'Think and Learn' in India 7 years ago. Online education app – ByJuice App was developed from his organization.
According to Indian media reports, Walt Disney has recently signed an agreement with Byjus. Because of this deal, Think and Learn Pvt got $150 million or Rs 1,326,825,000 in Indian currency. As such, the total value of the Think and Learn company has reached 570 million US dollars! Teacher Baijus is going to launch the service in the United States in partnership with Disney early next year.
Founder Baiju Rabindran also holds 21 percent stake in Think & Learn Pvt. That's why 37-year-old Rabindran's property is currently around 8 thousand 240 crores 18 lakhs 39 thousand 100 taka!
Baiju Ravindran said, the same way the world of entertainment opens up at home with the click of a mouse, the storehouse of education should be open for the students. From that idea, after the new contract with Disney, Simba from The Lion King or Anna from Frozen will teach mathematics and English to first to third grade students. They will also teach through videos, games, stories and quizzes. The reason is that Simba or Moana are able to attract the attention of children very much.
India is currently going through a phase where a lot of people are trying to make something of themselves. That is why India is ahead of many in increasing the number of rich people. And so Rabindran is the latest addition to the list of billionaires.
According to Rabindran, the online education market in India is growing day by day. This has made it possible to get cheap smart phones and cheap internet. This market is expanding day by day. Teacher Baiju Ravindran also thinks its future is brighter.
