Emerging startup, Truly Madly enables young guys and girls to find their counterparts according to their wish. Whether you are looking for a girl who can cook or a boy who earns well, app like Truly Madly look to find someone who is in sync with you by just a click of a button.

Truly Madly is a Delhi-based online dating and matchmaking app which is founded by several serial entrepreneur, including Sachin Bhatia, who had also Co-founded MakeMyTrip.

Apart from Sachin Bhatia, Hitesh Dhingra and Rahul Kumar are the other Co-founders who collectively started the venture.

"Our entire focus is to make app relevant to Indian culture and social context. While developing the app, we realize that what girls were looking for is verified profile of genuine singles and I think this was the big insight for us. Beside this we do compatibility.
