Here’s What Jugadu Kamlesh And Naru From Shark Tank India Season 1 Are Doing Now

The much-loved television program Shark Tank India is back this year with a fresh season and maintains the basic premise while making a few small adjustments.

However, many people are still remembering the pitchers and pitches from the previous season, despite the fact that this new season is full of fantastic and distinctive pitches and pitchers.

For the uninitiated, Shark Tank India is a replica of an American business-inspired show. Its major objective is to support aspiring business owners by persuading some of the biggest and most successful CEOs in the nation to invest in their ventures.

But there is one moment from the first season of Shark Tank India that has left an indelible impression on everyone. It comes from the pitch that everyone remembers the most.

Not only did Jugadu Kamlesh win over viewers’ hearts, but Peyush Bansal, the co-founder of LensKart, also rose to popularity as their preferred shark on the program because of his passion for supporting gifted entrepreneurs and investments with a clear purpose.

Who is Jugadu Kamlesh?

After making an appearance on Shark Tank India, Kamlesh Nanasaheb Ghumare, also known as Jugadu Kamlesh, earned an investment of $10,000 for 40% ownership from Shark Peyush Bansal as well as a $20,000 flexible no-interest loan.

Kamlesh began his business path since he didn’t want to work for someone else. He has always been motivated to find an easy solution to the issues farmers confront. He came up with a solution and created a pesticide cart after observing his father and several other farmers struggle with the pesticide tank and the negative effects it was having on their health.

Before presenting the product to the Shark Tank India judges in 2021, he made a number of adjustments to it. He uploaded a video of himself using the pesticide cart to YouTube, and it quickly gained popularity. After then, he was mentioned in various news outlets.

He gained further fame after making an appearance on Shark Tank India. He received recognition from Zee Hindustan’s RISE (Startup to Unicorn) as well.

Where is Jugadu Kamlesh now?

Jugadu Kamlesh had his training at LensKart Academy before he and his cousin Naru started KG Agrotech. He is currently using his cutting-edge technologies to assist small-scale farmers.

He even shares his journey of triumph and hardship in a Josh Talks video. Kamesh said in the video that he had dreamed of becoming an army officer initially. However, when he grew older, his passion for acting evolved, although he ran into some bad luck in that area.

Then Kamesh explained that he traveled to Mumbai to pursue his aspirations but that his family wasn’t supporting him. Additionally, the day after he came, they kicked him out of their home.

The season one star said that he has had a number of difficulties in his life, including being defrauded at work and having financial difficulties. He even considered suicide. He persisted nevertheless, and he gave the business a shot. He described Peyush Bansal’s assistance to him throughout the journey.

Jugaadu Kamesh became extremely well-liked for his idea to use his methods to assist needy farmers. His plan showed how to assist farmers who are carrying hefty pesticide canisters on their backs.

Peyush Bansal was fascinated by Kamesh’s concept and desire to alter society. His enterprise was sponsored and funded by the shark.

Kamlesh and Naru are constantly guided by Peyush Bansal

Ghazal Alagh: “Aapne loan lene ki koshish kyu nahi ki kabhi?”

Jugadu Kamlesh: “Dega kaun?”

Peyush Bansal: “Mai dunga. Aap Bharat ki umeed ho. Aapko support kisi ne nahi kiya par mai karunga.”

Peyush Bansal has earlier revealed why he supported kamlesh,

“I invested in the entrepreneur and if you asked me he is the best among all. He has a vision, confidence and he was vigilant. I was impressed by him because of his positive attitude and even when the sharks denied investing in him, he remained positive and was continuously smiling. He won my heart when he said he won’t leave Naru which shows his humility. I respect Jugaadu Kamlesh as an entrepreneur because ‘bande me hai dum’.”
