Kamlesh Nanasaheb Ghumare, known as Jugaadu Kamlesh, rose to fame on the first season of Shark Tank India due to his unwavering passion for his project. He proposed a pesticide spraying machine, which he had been developing for over seven years.

“Last 1 year, post shark tank season 1, one question I have been asked most is…’Peyush, what is happening with Kamlesh?’
Despite the high level of attention, Peyush and his team remained focused and avoided becoming entangled in media attention. He added,
And every time I smiled at them 🙂 and stayed 🤫 Reason being …the expectations and attention on this were so high, that I wanted to ensure we (including Kamlesh) stay focused and deliver something and not get caught into all the media attention…. And honestly this is not my expertise, so I also wanted to stay focused as I was worried if I will even be able to add any value here ….
