In this monologue, Shrenik Shah describes the stark difficulty he faces when attempting to speak before a massive audience. He paints a vivid scenario of standing on a podium before 500,000 people, feeling that he has many ideas to share, yet finding his words trapped in his mouth. The audience’s reaction shifts from amazement to shock, and many leave the auditorium. Shah reflects that this experience represents a loss of his natural speaking ability, highlighting the personal and professional impact of this challenge.

The purpose is bizarrely simple. Imagine you want to talk, you want to address a large audience, say 500,000 people. You are on a podium and you want to talk. You have 100 things in your head. And people know that, yes, this is going to be a genetic talk. And the moment you start speaking, words are trapped in the mouth, words are not coming out. First people look at you amazed, then probably shocked, and probably they will leave the auditorium. Without anything. And that was my life when I lost my natural speaking ability.
