Eventually though, it was Joshi's astuteness, ability to build political consensus and undying loyalty to the Shiv Sena founder that ensured his many successes.
The Maharashtrian Brahmin from Konkan first arrived in Mumbai to work as a teacher in a coaching class. From thereon he built his own multi-crore technical education institute before expanding into real estate and hospitality.

Joshi emerged as a key player in the Shiv Sena's control of the powerful Bombay Municipal Corporation in the early 70s, and he steadily rose through the ranks, becoming the mayor of Bombay then the leader of opposition in Maharashtra Assembly and crowning it with becoming chief minister of the first Shiv Sena-BJP government in Maharashtra in 1995.
