About Guest:

Mr. Sunil is the quintessential Gujarati immigrant in America. He is CEO of InZenn Hospitality which owns 25 motels along the east coast. He came to the USA in search of a better opportunity but had to start work as a front desk clerk in a motel. Learn how he leveraged $25,000 of his savings to own 13 convenience stores to finally buy his first $1.5 million dollar motel. We will talk about how he survived visa denials, being stranded at the airport on his first day in America, and being shot at in NYC (not once but thrice)! He has also started AIANA(The Association of Indian Americans in North America) and Chalo India, the institution which brought PM Narendra Modi to the USA in 2014. The annual event held by his institutions sees participation from 30,000 Gujarati's from all over the world. 

About the show:

Welcome to Dollar Gujarati, a show about successful Gujarati entrepreneurs and professionals in America. We talk with them about their ideas and struggles on the road to success in this land of opportunity.
