B For Boat - Aman Gupta

Shark Tank India, the popular business-based reality show, has the country in its grip. It is the Indian franchise of the American show Shark Tank. Shark Tank entered the Indian market in 2021 just to become one of the most popular TV shows in India. Currently, the show is airing its second season. In this show, entrepreneurs from India present their ideas to the panel of judges urging them to invest in their businesses. The ‘Sharks’ this season are Namita Thapar, Vinita Singh, Aman Gupta, Peyush Bansal, Anupam Mittal, and Amit Jain.

India saw a massive spike in the popularity of sharks and entrepreneurial discussions

The after-effects of Shark Tank go far and beyond than we think, in a recent incident Aman Gupta ended up in a kid’s answer sheet. The shark who is popular for his chill attitude and his quirky one-liners now wants the alphabet B to be spelled as ‘boAt’ in schools.

An internet user uploaded a photo of his son’s answer sheet on Instagram where the kid was supposed to frame sentences with the given words. The words given to him were ‘happy, money and boat’. The child who is supposedly an ardent fan of Shark Tank wrote,

‘Boat is a brand of headphones by Aman Gupta’

Interestingly enough, the teacher also marked his answer as the correct one. Posting the picture, the man wrote,

“My son Anvay’s answer sheet After effects of Shark Tank. @boatxaman hope your purpose is served (A for apple, B for boAt) Teacher shocked Anvay rocked Expectation: Boat is a mode of transport. Reality:”

Vineeta Singh has also shared such similar instance once

Vineeta Singh, the founder of Sugar Cosmetics said,

“I was with my kids in a park when an eight-year-old spotted me from her building. She came down, spoke to me about her love for the show, and shared how she wanted to be an entrepreneur when she grows up. That’s the moment I realised the impact the show has. It was far bigger than the investment and businesses that we invested in. And that is what really is going to matter in the long run”
