The Founder
Anshu Goyal
“After two decades of building businesses, I found myself drawn to something deeper.”
Anshu Goyal is the Co-Founder & CEO of SimplyRaw, Director at Minar Spices, and Founder of Bharat Revolt — a community of 20,000+ EV owners for peer-to-peer charging. She has spent over two decades leading at the highest levels of Indian business.
“Two decades of building businesses brought achievement. It did not bring stillness.”
“One trip to Banaras in early 2024 quietly answered a question I hadn't known I was asking. I've been returning every month since — sometimes for a week, sometimes for a weekend. Slowly, the city became my second home.”
“Kashi with Anshu is what I built for the people who, like me then, are being called.”
What began as a personal devotion has, slowly, become public. Her short pieces on Banaras are now watched by millions — but the work itself has not changed. Ten seekers. Four days. One city.
Two years ago, Banaras became her second home — through devotion to Mahadev, surrender, and a deeply personal relationship with this sacred city.
Kashi with Anshu is what she gives now. Not as a guide. As a host who walks every step beside you — including the 2 AM Mangla Aarti.
“This is not learned through guidebooks. It is lived.”
