Off Script | Fearless Business Lessons from a Life Lived Differently

About the Book -

Most People Follow A Plan.

Shailesh Didn’t.

Instead, he built a life and career by asking bold questions, making gutsy decisions, and refusing to let fear call the shots. From launching and exiting multiple businesses to learning life’s toughest (and funniest) lessons the hard way, Off Script is a story of living—and leading—with courage, clarity, and a well-timed punchline.

In this honest, often hilarious, and deeply insightful memoir, Shailesh shares the mantras that shaped him—like “Better an OOPS than a WHAT IF,” “You can’t always make everyone happy, you’re not a big bar of chocolate,” and “Mental clutter is just postponed decisions.” Each chapter is a real-world reminder that success isn’t found in spreadsheets or strategies—it’s in how you show up, what you stand for, and how well you can laugh when things go sideways.

Whether you’re an entrepreneur, executive, or just someone trying to make sense of this messy, beautiful thing called life, Off Script is your guide to ditching the playbook, thinking clearly, living fully, and doing business with zero regrets.

Because when you stop just existing and start truly living, every moment becomes worth it—and every story becomes unforgettable.
