Aman Gupta Taunts Peyush Bansal, Saying ‘Main Phenkta Nahi Hu Zyada’ In Shark Tank India 3

Shark Tank India, a reality show based on its American version, has gained immense popularity since its premiere. Not only this, but it has also taken center stage in conversations about businesses all around the country. The program has captured the interest of a large Indian audience despite its relatively modest premise.

For the duration of its first season, the show’s roster of some of India’s most well-known entrepreneurs served as a main attraction for viewers. In addition to gaining a wide and passionate fan base, it served as a major source of meme inspiration. The reality TV program solidified its place in the fabric of Indian popular culture and social media meme culture. Similarly, the current season keeps reflecting this influence on culture.

The show and its panel of sharks have managed to maintain their prominent position in the media, even after some adjustments from their amazing debut season. While noting that Ashneer Grover, the co-founder of BharatPe, is still a well-known character in relevant discussions even if he is not on the show, other sharks are also garnering a lot of traction. In line with this, one of the sharks, Aman Gupta, recently made a daring proposal that directly targeted a fellow shark, Peyush Bansal.

Aman Gupta’s pitch makes Radhika Vemuri Venkata question her decision to enter Shark Tank

Pratyusha Vemuri Venkata, the trailblazer behind AI Kavach, is on a mission to revolutionize phone browsing. The AI Kavach also ensured safety and security in the digital realm. Her motivation to fight cybercrime stems from her own experience with a Rs 5,000 swing (jhoola) purchase scam. The scam eventually exposed the susceptibility of phones to eavesdropping and cyberfraud.

In addition to sharing her heartbreaking experience, Pratyusha strikes a chord with other sharks, such as Vineeta Singh, Peyush Bansal, and Radhika Gupta, who have also come across similar false communications throughout their online explorations. Unfazed by obstacles, Pratyusha goes on to show off the AI app’s ability to fend off cyberattacks. It laid the groundwork for a sequence of offers and counteroffers.

Aman Gupta enters the scene and makes the pitch that makes Radhika question her decision to enter Shark Tank early. Recognized for his financial savvy, Aman uses a watch and glasses to subtly promote his company while conveying an important message about technology. He challenges the status quo and makes a confident proposal.

Peyush Bansal express desire to be treated as an equal advisor elicits sharp response from Aman Gupta.

In response, Peyush Bansal aligns with Pratyusha’s proposal, expressing a desire to be treated as an equal advisor.

Responding to this, Aman asserts, “Let me also make my pitch.” Subsequently, he points to the labels with his watch and glasses and adds,

“Let me show you what technology goes here and what technology goes there. I don’t talk about technology because we do technology. So I don’t need to show. Main phenkta nahi hu zyada. Mujhe toh lagta hai ye apne talent ko chori na karle. Aap apne dhande ka mazboot khiladi ho, main India me business banane ke mazboot khiladi hu. So you decide and I will also match your offer.”

Undeterred by the bold pitch, Pratyusha counters with an unexpected move—a dual proposal of Rs 1 crore for 2.5% equity and an additional 2.5% advisory equity, leaving Vineeta in shock.

Unexpectedly, Aman and Peyush accept Pratyusha’s counteroffer together, seeing its AI Kavach’s enormous potential. The unanimous decision is a great moment for Pratyusha and her creative project, confirming its status as a trailblazer in the constantly changing field of digital security.

However, it also leaves Peyush Bansal speechless. The clip of the incident has been going viral on social media, with people suggesting that Aman’s “Main phenkta nahi hu” and “ye apne talent ko chori na karle” dialogues were an indirect dig at Peyush Bansal and his brand, Lenskart.

What do you think about this? Is it intentional or not?
