Zerodha CEO Nithin Kamath's Attempt To Decode GenZ Slang Goes Viral A lighthearted quiz between Zerodha founder Nithin Kamath and social media personality Gowri Bhat Gandotra sparked widespread online attention after Kamath struggled to grasp modern Gen Z slang terms. The exchange, which unfolded on social media, highlighted the generational gap in understanding internet jargon and quickly became a viral sensation. The conversation began with Gowri jokingly referring to Kamath as a "boomer boss" before correcting herself and labeling him a member of Generation X. This playful remark set the tone for a discussion about commonly used online slang. Gowri then posed a series of questions to Kamath, testing his familiarity with terms that have become staples in digital communication. The first term was "rizz," which Kamath admitted he did not know. Gowri explained that the word refers to charisma, often used to describe someone’s ability to attract attention or charm others. Kamath’s lack of knowledge on this term underscored the growing disconnect between older and younger generations in terms of cultural references. The second word was "simp," a term that frequently confuses those unfamiliar with internet culture. Kamath guessed it was a slang version of "simple," but Gowri corrected him. She clarified that "simp" describes someone who shows excessive admiration, attention, or devotion toward another person, often with the hope of receiving affection in return. This explanation revealed the term’s nuanced meaning, which extends beyond its literal definition. Next, Gowri introduced the phrase "clock it," accompanied by a hand gesture commonly used online. The phrase is typically used to indicate that someone has noticed something important or made a sharp observation.#social_media #zerodha_ceo #nithin_kamath #gowri_bhat_gandotra #gen_z_slang
