The business reality television show Shark Tank India concluded on February 4, 2022, after a phenomenally successful run of more than a month. It’s on the verge of becoming a fad among Indian audiences. Not only has the programme captivated viewers with its intriguing business presentations, but it has also gotten a lot of traction on social media thanks to its amusing memes.
Both in terms of viewership and in terms of stimulating the startup ecosystem, the show has been a big success. It’s a spinoff of the original American series, which aired for 13 seasons starting in 2009.

Sony Entertainment Television’s non-fiction show Shark Tank India has benefited India’s start-up ecosystem’s expansion. The show has highlighted the rising wave of entrepreneurship that exists in every part of India, serving as a source of inspiration for individuals belonging to different sectors of the market. This show has given many young entrepreneurs the push they needed to succeed, with all it took to wow the sharks being one flawless pitch.
The judges’ panel on Shark Tank India appears to have become a major topic of conversation among viewers as the show’s popularity surges. The show features a panel of seven successful entrepreneurs who listen to pitches from potential entrepreneurs before debating whether or not to invest in the project. The seven judges have now established themselves as celebrities, and their popularity is developing in parallel with the show’s popularity.
Vineeta Singh-Â Co-Founder and CEO of SUGAR Cosmetics, Anupam Mittal-Â Founder and CEO of People Group-Â Namita Thapar-Â ED of Emcure Pharmaceutical, BharatPe co-founder-Â Ashneer Grover, BoAt co-founder-Â Aman Gupta, Lenskart co-founder-Â Peyush Bansal and Chief of MamaEarth-Â Ghazal Alagh are among the judges for this event.
Judges who are popularly known as Sharks don’t only pass judgement on other people’s ideas but also share their own and provide unconditional guidance to help them improve their future proposals.
Another thing to remember about judges is that, while we now recognise them for their expertise, they were once aspiring entrepreneurs attempting to make it in the business world.
Here’s how the Sharks appeared when they initially started their businesses and how they seem now:
