Gautam Adani, the Chairman of the Adani Group, on Thursday said that failure is never the final destination, adding that life always gives a second chance.


He wrote a post on X about an 18-year-old girl in Uttar Pradesh's Gorakhpur who suicide after failing to clear the JEE exams.


"I have just this request to all of you - never consider failure as the final destination. Because life always gives a second chance…!" the Adani Group Chairman said on X.


अपेक्षाओं के बोझ तले दबकर एक होनहार बेटी का यूं चले जाना हृदयविदारक है।

Expressing sadness over the death of the student, Mr Adani said: "It is heartbreaking to see a promising daughter go away under the burden of expectations".


The teen had left a note for her parents stating that she was "sorry" for "not fulfilling their dreams".


Sharing the lesson of life, he also advised parents to keep pressures away from themselves and their children.


"Life is bigger than any exam – parents will have to understand this themselves and also explain it to their children," Gautam Adani said.


Further, the Adani Group Chairman also opened up about his personal failures and how he came out of them.


"I was very normal in my studies," he said, adding that he "failed many times in studies and life".


"But every time life showed me a new path," Gautam Adani said.
