We recently had the chance to connect with khush patel and have shared our conversation below.
Hi khush, thank you for taking the time to reflect back on your journey with us. I think our readers are in for a real treat. There is so much we can all learn from each other and so thank you again for opening up with us. Let’s get into it: What battle are you avoiding?
The battle I am avoiding is against a mindset that I believe steals your future. I see so many in my generation accepting a pre-packaged life: work 40 hours, party on the weekend, live for the next holiday, and repeat. They follow the rules of a system, but that system leaves them with immense financial anxiety.
The battle for me is to actively add life into my life, not just live it day by day. It’s the fight to create, to build, and to find ways to generate income that serve my goals, rather than being a slave to a paycheck. I am avoiding the comfortable path that leads to a cage.
Can you briefly introduce yourself and share what makes you or your brand unique?
Seven years ago, Versed Vision was just me, a freelancer with a camera and a passion for filmmaking. Today, I’m proud to lead a dedicated team of 17 creative professionals who bring that same passion to every project we touch. We’ve evolved from a small operation into a full-scale production company that creates everything from commercials and music videos to feature films.
The core of our success lies in collaboration. As we grew, I realized the immense power of bringing the right people together for the right job. That’s why Versed Vision operates with a flexible model, tapping into a global network of talent to build a dream team for each client. We’re not just a production company; we are storytellers committed to creating memorable, high-quality films, and I’m incredibly excited about the future we’re building
Okay, so here’s a deep one: What’s a moment that really shaped how you see the world?
My worldview was shaped not by one moment, but by the collection of tough days I faced starting at age 15. Through early internships, I was immersed in practical work where I often felt lost, but also incredibly engaged. That experience taught me a fundamental truth: your future is forged in the challenges of your past. The struggle to learn, the desire to turn a dream like owning my first camera—into a reality, and the wisdom from my mentors all came together. It proved to me that the difficult moments when you feel you know nothing are precisely the moments that make you who you are.
When you were sad or scared as a child, what helped?
My primary coping mechanisms when I was young were movement and music. I found that staying physically active every single day and keeping my mind busy with work and new ideas was the best way to process fear or sadness. Music was my constant companion through it all. I also learned the power of stillness through meditation, which was a great help for my ADHD. But the most important lesson I learned was that a good night’s sleep is the most reliable solution to almost any problem you’re facing
Sure, so let’s go deeper into your values and how you think. Is the public version of you the real you?
As an entrepreneur, my focus is often on structure, logistics, and tangible results—that’s a very grounded, pragmatic part of who I am. But as a creative and a filmmaker, my focus shifts to vision, storytelling, and emotional connection. That’s a more expressive and outward-facing part of me.
These two modes might seem different from the outside, but they’re powered by the same core ambition and set of values. They aren’t a ‘public self’ versus a ‘private self’; they are simply different channels of the same person.
So, the version of me you see publicly is absolutely the real me. It’s just the specific expression of my passion that’s best suited to build a business, create art, or, like today, connect in an interview
Thank you so much for all of your openness so far. Maybe we can close with a future oriented question. If you knew you had 10 years left, what would you stop doing immediately?
The first thing I’d stop doing is grinding for a ‘someday’ that might not come. I’d immediately stop taking every single meeting, chasing every new venture, and saying “yes” to projects that are more about obligation than passion. The endless hustle for a bigger future would be over.
I’d stop letting the work I have to do for my businesses completely overshadow the creative work I love to do. The film projects, the stories I really want to tell… they wouldn’t be side quests anymore. They would become the main mission.
It would be a radical shift from building more to experiencing deeper. I’d stop collecting obligations and start collecting moments.
