Indian Entrepreneur Mujtaba Releases Book on Startup Burnout and Mental Wellness

NEW DELHI - July 9, 2026 - PRLog -- New Delhi, India — Mujtaba, Founder & CEO of ASMZ International and known by his personal brand "Mr. One," has released his debut book Startup Illness: A Story of Burnout, Ambition, and Peace — a candid narrative about the psychological toll of building a business and the journey toward mental peace.

The book comes at a critical time when India's startup ecosystem, one of the fastest-growing in the world, continues to overlook the mental wellness of its founders and employees. Drawing from over six years of personal experience in venture scaling and digital transformation, Mujtaba brings an honest, first-person perspective rarely seen in Indian business literature.

Startup Illness is not a self-help guide — it is a story. A story of ambition pushing beyond its limits, of burnout arriving uninvited, and of eventually finding peace without abandoning purpose. It speaks directly to entrepreneurs, startup employees, and young professionals navigating the pressure of building something from scratch.

"We celebrate hustle but never talk about the cost," says Mujtaba. "This book is for every founder who has felt alone in their struggle."

Mujtaba is an entrepreneur, consultant, and published author based in New Delhi. He is an IIM Bangalore alumnus with a focus on Service Marketing, holds a Harvard certification in web development, and has earned more than 11 professional certifications from Google, Meta, HubSpot, Semrush, Microsoft, and LinkedIn. He is the author of Startup Illness: A Story of Burnout, Ambition, and Peace, published in December 2025, and is also the founder of SorryBoss, a job portal focused on talent connectivity.

Startup Illness is now available for readers across World.
