Shark Tank India, a spectacular business-themed show, has recently risen to the top of the conversation after it was renewed for a second season.
For the uninitiated, the show is a remake of the American reality television show Shark Tank, in which prospective company owners presented their ideas to a panel of seasoned business experts known as “sharks.” While many businesses got a lot of attention during the first season, it was the sharks who stole the limelight.

The show, broadcast on Sony Entertainment Television, made those sharks or self-made billionaires an internet sensation, especially BharatPe co-founder Ashneer Grover. His banter and dialogue became meme fodder on the Internet, which is why lots of people still remembered him when he was not featured in the second season.
Due to this, many people criticized Shark Tank India season 2 and questioned Ashneer’s experience.

Recently, Anupam Mittal captured fans’ hearts when he gave a job to a businessman who had come looking for funding for a failing footwear line. Taking to his official Instagram handle, Mittal shared a video and captioned,

“Deal li ya na li, purre India ka jeet liya … isi liye haar kar jeetne wale ko baazigar kehte hain. Well done @ganesh.balakrishnan, everybody is rooting for you & thanks for teaching us the power of being open, honest & accepting. As you & I discussed today ‘success builds ego but failure builds character’ Onwards & Upwards.”
Anupam Mittal, a co-founder of the well-known marriage website Shaadi.com, is shown in the video chatting with a pitcher in the Shark Tank 2 episode from January 6.
In front of the sharks on the show, Flatheads co-founder Ganesh Balkrishnan, who pitches his shoe line made of breathable fibers, became upset and said that he is about to close down his company.
Additionally, he disclosed that 33% of his angel investors are pulling out of his business. Balakrishnan even said that his wife supports the family with her salary and that they have a kid who is 10 years old. Due to this, Anupam Mittal quizzed him about his personal life.
When Balakrishnan said that he was considering finding work, Shark Anupam offered him a position at his firm and also indicated an interest in investing in Balakrishnan’s company after he learned the fundamentals of running a business.
