For the three founders of popular Indian Social media apps Sharechat and Moj, brotherhood defines their relationship. Ankush Sachdeva, Bhanu Pratap Singh and Farid Ahsan, who met at IIT Kanpur, founded Mohalla Tech in early 2015. Interestingly, all three have been living under the same roof for nearly a decade.
