Arslan is a very humble person, Loved this podcast.
This kind of content is EXACTLY what we need to see. Not just Pakistanis, this is great insight into the Tech Industry in general, world wide. So inspirational to see people like Arsalan Ali Shah creating value from seemingly impossible business environments and winning! Thank you Muzamil for this kind of content. Love it.
I feel Muzaammil bhai is Jinn sometimes ;) what a brilliant mind he is mashaallah.. Muzaammil bhai you asked some very very courageous questions and countered the hosts very logically wherever needed. Hats off for Arsalan bhai as well, He was very humble and got convinced on many points of yours!
I recently started on Fiverr as a Sound designer. Mry bht points clear ho rhy hyn right now.
@1:30:40, totally agreed. I think we are used to make government scapegoat for all our problems.
Podcast hai to bari lambi par it is worth to watch it ... Apke guest or ap khud bht kamaal k hain Jis tarah se ap unse sawal karte hain or wo agay se jawab dete maza ata hai sun kar
It completely changed my perspective. What a great podcast this is. I was stuck in many things and it helped me find the answers I needed. Thank a million !!!
Al Nafi is a platform for learning Emerging Technologies. Muzamil if you can bring any representative from Al Nafi that would be awesome as this will educate the young Pakistani how they can enter in the emerging technologies.

Love this podcast. Highlights exact issues we are facing on daily basis.
i was thinking to mention about him for interview but just watched a thumbnail so happy to see him on TBT
watched the full podcast. Absolutely loved the discussion regarding IT and the problems and their solutions. Big love to Syed Arsalan Ali Shah and Muzammil Hassan Zaidi
#Muzammil bhai thank you for the amazing content ... please invite this guest again for more amazing insights.
One of the most Humble Person I ever Met in my entire life.
One of the best podcasts ever. Great job, keep it up
After ganji swag's 1 hour podcast, this 2 hours podcast doesn't make me bore. Each and every word of both of you are absolutely right. I agree with everything you talk and yes, this conversation is still need to be completed and we'll wait for the next podcast with sir arsalan...

First time commenting on youtube ever. Amazing podcast. Thanks a lot, Muzamil Bhai.
Wow. Thank you guys for clearing my confusion. ❤️❤️❤️
There should be more such talks with sir Arsalan.very insightful conversation.♥️
such a constructive talk ... ab watching your channel since yesterday and I've watched 4-5 podcasts from start to end. Keep doing brother
It took me two days to complete it , but i did. I have no relation to IT but I love to listen to you and your guests.
Best talk, both are my favorites. I've been a student of Sir Arsalan. More power to you guys.
Mind-blowing podcast, the best podcast i have ever listened to... Take a bow Arsalan bhai and one and only legend Muzzamil bhai 😍😍😍
What an amazing episode! Love you both
I think this is one of the best podcasts on your channel. Today Muzammil expressed his thoughts openly. Lots of KZreadrs inspiring by you and trying to start podcasts like you but they don't have information like you. Keep it up Bro 👍
This discussion was Amazing. Love this:)
one of the greatest podcasts ever Muzzamil Bhai and Arsalan Bhai.
Watched the full podcast. Simply loved it.
I am student at Oxford Brookes which is a good ranked UK university, and I am a permanent resident here since childhood. Your podcasts still provide way more detailed information on different industries than any video or podcast I ever heard, and it’s actually interesting how on first glance we see a successful man and he break his life story down about how he got to the point he is now. As bachelor student it gives a glance about how actually things work in the world and how we could be successful in the outside world like your guests.
Love this guy. I didn't know him before December 2021 but I just got to know him better and love what he stands for.
I started freelancing one year ago now Alhumdulilah I’m top rated seller on upwork and level two seller on fiverr :)
Great efforts.We are fortunate to have an innovator like you.you have a brilliant and hard working person.
Excellent discussion! one of the things that I would like to point out here for Graphic Designers is that they can scale up their businesses through the Digital Downloads business model. They can make designs and sell on Etsy or Amazon as digital prints. Since the product will be digital, no shipping will be required. Similarly, freelance article writers can make their blogs on topics that they're passionate about. It takes less than $100 and you can generate thousands by learning through KZread videos. Just get a bit of hang on SEO writing, and you'll be good to go.
I listened to many freelancers' podcasts but Mr.Syed Arsalan Ali Shah is different and futuristic.
@1:53:30 Thanks so much Muzammil Arsalan Bhai. you both are legends. I first time watched 2 hours video on KZread
Excellent podcast. It's a superb amazing conversation.
Arslan bhai is a kind of a Gem, humble down to earth and he raised so many people who are more famous than him but he always stayed like beyond the wall, he let the other peoples to be famous and on stage, rare people have such heart ❤
Great Respect to his efforts ✨ Amazing podcast
So humble persons both of you
Awesome podcast. Doesn't seem like it was 2 hours long conversation.
Very fruitful and informative podcast. 🙌
your podcasts are real gold
This podcast is amazing. i watch the full podcast.. I would like recommend to everyone watch full podcast

A load of insight.. ✌🏼
This is the podcast which truly defines freelancing, special tribute to Arsalan❤️
It's harsh to describe yourself in that like if you are also a freelancer, but your conversation is so true.
Excellent discussion. Loved the business model of Arslan, all the best wishes.
There are two parts of tbt podcast aik me guest bolt has or dusty me muzzamil bhai :) keep it up love your content
Muzamil is extremely smart and well-informed, still stays so humble. I liked how he was slightly in "AITHAY RAKH" MODE in this particular episode! 🙂👍
amazing informative podcast 😃
Great Episode
Please invite Faisal from Al Nafi. I'm 100000000% sure that he has the answer to your worrying queries regarding Freelancing.
Love it.
Passion of Muzamil is at peak in this podcast.
I learned a lot. I need 2nd episode

What a podcast!!!!
MaShAllah More Power to you brother
Thought changing!
end kr di pori podcast.
This guy is brilliant. *Believe you me*
Amazing 👏
Careem was founded in Dubai, and is headquartered in Dubai, so Arsalan is right.
Hi Muzamil you’re doing great Love this podcast ! Please invite ASBAR ALI we want to hear him and his journey in detail currently he owns his KZread channel !
Love your smile Muzzamil
Very informative
Did u noticed ?@muzamil you asked a very long question regarding difference btw freelancing and agency and your guest didn't answer it & i was smiling throughout because the answer is simpler"""ITS A GAME OF MONEY GAME OF SHARING %"" he couldn't say Bcz agencies earn more....secondly,it was such a thoughtful interview.I got enough food from here..i see cybersecurity everywhere after three years bcz more n more security would be needed due to many online platforms presence......
best podcast
Arsalan bhai is super cool!
Man this is ❤️
Muzamil, I can sum up dichotomy of our business behavior in few words. We Pakistanis believe in capitalism when we are at giving end and conversely in Socialism when at receiving end.?
There are already automatic logo generators. Also Canva has replaced the need of having graphic designer. Similarly there is canva for videos called Kapwing. There will be no need for video editors in near future. These patty jobs are dying already. Unfortunately the govt is late like always. Govt vision is like create freelancers doing graphics, wordpress installs, data entries, call centers and stuff like this, that will die in next 2 years probably.

Graphic designing is not going to die in near future, actually it is growing at a pace of more than 3% per year, Graphic designing is a lot bigger than just logo designing.
I am waiting for the new studio and intro after 200 episodes.
I agree with Muzammil. I'm freelancer since 10 years. And mostly did coding jobs. I'm like 35 and I can't code anymore due to exhausted mind. I do get gigs and money but I don't know I've got lazy and have no energy left as before. I don't oppose freelancing, infact everyone should try it. Its the best thing that can happen to any young dude but guys do join co-working spaces atleast. Co-working spaces are like alot of ideas at steroids. Your vision will become broader.

hey man what would you recommend a software developer job at a mnc for 12lpa (24 lpa in pkr) or being a top web development freelancer ??

@@samirkumar9908 @_ Samir _ Well, I will choose both for sometime. Engaging with organizations makes you well organized. You grow with people. Freelancing is more a comfort zone where people do earn alot but often reluctant to accept remarkable challenges. At the end of the day I'd suggest you mix it up over the years. But do not except anything exceptional out of you after 35 years most. (if you're a coder) because this age you'd want passive income. Always plan for creating a "solution as service."
