Lumikai Pixels Blueprint × Outlook Respawn | From Idea to PMF: Lessons from Scaling Interactive Platforms
Updated: Apr 2
In the 4th episode of Lumikai Pixels Blueprint × Outlook Respawn, Saurabh Pandey, Founder and CEO of Eloelo Group, reflects on building one of India’s fastest-growing social entertainment platforms and the thinking that shaped its expansion into a multi-product ecosystem.
Drawing from his journey from leading category P&Ls at Flipkart to building Eloelo, Saurabh outlines how the company evolved into a four-product group with Eloelo, StoryTV, Master and Connecto, each addressing distinct user behaviours within the broader interactive media landscape.
At the core of this journey is a consistent focus on identifying the right signals early. Rather than relying on surface-level metrics, Saurabh emphasises the importance of tracking user behaviour closely and aligning product decisions with what users repeatedly return for. Over time, this approach helped shape Eloelo’s identity as a creator-led platform built around live interaction and community.
The conversation also explores how cultural behaviour informs product design. Eloelo’s early traction came from tapping into formats that felt native to Indian users, particularly in live and social entertainment. This understanding extended into adjacent products, allowing the group to expand while staying anchored in user intent.
A key theme that emerges is the role of monetisation as a validation signal. As the platform scaled, revenue became a clearer indicator of product-market fit, reflecting both engagement depth and willingness to pay. This, in turn, informed decisions on where to invest and how to prioritise growth.
Saurabh also reflects on the inflection points that shaped the company’s trajectory, from early product bets to scaling creator ecosystems and navigating fundraising. His perspective on investor relationships underscores the importance of clarity and alignment, particularly in the early stages of building.
Key Takeaways

Product-market fit becomes clearer with sustained monetisation
