- 70,000 Indians laced up for someone they'll never meet. 👥 Last weekend was Drishti ki Daud - Run for Vision. 21,107 of you crossed 20,000 steps. Because of that, 33,600 pairs of glasses are on their way to people who need them - thank you Lenskart Foundation team 🙏 You asked for more time. So the run continues...now through 31 August. Not too late to join: open the Lenskart app → Run for Vision, connect your health app, and start walking. For your own health, and for someone else's sight. Jai Hind. 🇮🇳 #RunForVision #DrishtiKiDaud #IndependenceDay #VisionForBillion
- In 1947, we won our freedom. But even today, millions of Indians can't see the flag they salute - simply because they've never had a pair of glasses. This Independence Day, don't just celebrate freedom. Give it. 🇮🇳 Run or walk 20,000 steps in the next 2 days - Aug 15 & 16. For every person who completes it, we donate a pair of glasses to someone in need. Your steps 👣 Someone's sight. 👁️ Jai Hind 🫡🇮🇳 Tag one person you're running with. 👥 #RunForVision #DrishtiKiDaud — 📍 India
- The team launched this last week. I've been carrying a pair around since - not to wear, just to keep finding things. 🕷️ There are 7 Spider-Man details hidden in these frames.

Find all 7 in-store, post it, tag @lenskart - first 50 get their pair free. #SpiderManXLenskart

- Nice surprise at the Ahmedabad store today 🇳🇱 Roelof van der Merwe & Michael Levitt walked in looking for Meller — they’d picked it up earlier in Amsterdam too 😄 — 📍 Nexus Ahmedabad One
- Earlier today, we spoke about our Q3 Results - growth, margins and AI. It’s been a long day - earnings call, discussions, travel. Before heading to the airport, I stopped by our flagship store at Ambience Mall. The store was quiet. The team had just wrapped up. And in that silence, you realize something simple: Companies don’t compound. People do. Behind every eye test, every store opening, every product launch - there are teams showing up every single day with discipline and belief. As AI reshapes the world around us, one thing remains constant: culture and commitment matter more than ever. Grateful to our ground teams across India and internationally. The numbers are theirs. Sharing a few thoughts from the floor. If you want a full glimpse of how we're doing, I'm sharing our shareholder letter here too: https://assets.lenskart.com/documents/2026/02/11/Reg30-ShareholderLetter.pdf

Their conversation reveals genuine curiosity and mutual respect, with Peyush drawn to Jay's depth and Jay appreciating Peyush's authentic leadership.

Anupam MittalFounder & CEO @ People Group | Tech & D2C Builder & Investor 🦈 @Shark Tank India72Anupam and Peyush share a rare alignment: both are purpose-driven founders who weave social impact into brand-building, value storytelling, and carry public profiles with care. Their complementary personalities — Anupam's playful nostalgia against Peyush's grateful reflection — create space for genuine connection.

Randi's high-intensity, spontaneous, travel-heavy routine contrasts sharply with Peyush's structured, Delhi-rooted executive life. The geographic distance and opposing energy patterns—late-night races versus quiet reflection—make sustained connection unlikely. Peyush's curiosity about Randi's balance is genuine, but her need for a partner who can keep up with extreme physical and temporal demands may overwhelm his more measured approach.

Bozoma's recent marriage and deep commitment to her wife make a new romantic dynamic feel premature and potentially intrusive, while the geographic distance and conflicting energy rhythms (reflective vs. whirlwind) would strain any nascent connection. Their mutual respect and admiration suggest strong potential for professional collaboration, but romantic compatibility is currently low due to timing, availability, and lifestyle misalignment.
