BENGALURU: All eyes were on India's most-storied tech entrepreneur, Infosys co-founder NR Narayana Murthy , at The Economic Times Startup Awards. The day had been rocky with Infosys' first external chief executive, Vishal Sikka , quitting amid unceasing tensions with the `promoter' camp. Murthy didn't betray any anxiety over it.The 71-year-old looked dapper, was relaxed and congratulated the young gathering. Like this dilemma we posed to the co-founder of a former ET Startup Award winner: do you empathise with the Infosys founder or the chief executive who resigned. In a heartbeat, the Infosys co-founder said Deepika, because “she is a Bangalore girl“, as everybody burst into laughter.
