Since Zerodha co-founder Nikhil Kamath has already hosted tech billionaire Elon Musk on his WTF is podcast, everyone is wondering: who is the next guest?
While many would be content to wait for the announcement of Kamath’s next podcast guest, the internet is not known for its patience and many netizens have already started posting information about potential guests, ranging from the credible to the pure satire.
As people on the internet shared their theories, many noted how Kamath’s influence far exceeded that of other podcasters like Raj Shamani and Ranvir Allahabadia.
“Raj Shamani got Vijay Mallya. Ranvir Allahbadia got Ashneer Grover. Meanwhile, Nikhil Kamath: Bill Gates, Modi ji, Elon Musk. Miles ahead in guest clout by a big margin,” wrote one user, a thought shared by many on social media.

Who will appear on the next episode of the Kamath podcast? The people of the internet are guessing…
Though Kamath has largely spoken to industry leaders like Bill Gates and Elon Musk, to world leaders like Narendra Modi, netizens speculated that Tollywood icon Rajinikanth could be his next guest.
“Bill Gates, PM Modi, now Elon Musk. What a guest list Nikhil Kamath has created for his podcast. As he goes higher and higher, he will interview Rajinikanth at some point. Then he can end the series (sic),” wrote one user on X.
Meanwhile, another user suggested that another big name from the world of entertainment might appear on the Zerodha co-founder’s podcast: Sydney Sweeney.
Since the Hollywood actor has been making waves recently, especially after a controversial ad campaign for American Eagle, netizens suggested that Sweeney could be on the list, especially considering that Kamath previously interviewed Kriti Sanon from the entertainment industry.
“Building on this momentum, Kamath is now set to feature Hollywood actor Sydney Sweeney in his next episode. With the Musk clip already making waves on social media with its candid setting and unexpected pairing, Kamath’s evolving guest list signals a big leap in the global reach and ambition of his podcast,” the satire’s Instagram post said.
Another suggested that Kamath might try to interview Satashi Nakamoto, the as-yet-unidentified and elusive founder of the cryptocurrency Bitcoin.
Others, meanwhile, took it a step further and even suggested that Kamath’s next guest would be none other than Lord Krishna. Yes, the deity of Lord Krishna.
“What if this happens,” the user wrote on Instagram, sharing an AI-generated video of Lord Krishna being interviewed by co-founder Zerodha. “Nikhil X Shree Krishna” was the caption of the video and it showed the two laughing.
The video was apparently a montage of Kamath’s teaser videos for the Elon Musk episode, in which the Tesla CEO laughed along with his interviewer.
