A pitcher from Shark Tank India season 1 said two judges ghosted him despite promising him a contract on the business-focused reality show, according to a former contestant.
During the first season of Shark Tank India, a participant tweeted that he had met a pitcher who had not only appeared on the reality series the previous year but also landed a deal with two of the judges. They did not, however, ever meet him after the show or even reply to his emails. Akshay Shah, the founder and CEO of iWebTechno and a season one finalist on Shark Tank India, accused two Shark Tank judges in a series of tweets of ghosting a pitcher after promising him an investment on the business-focused reality show. Akshay did not take any names, despite requests from Twitter users to identify the pitcher or the sharks.
Shark Tank India season 2 debuted with its first episode on SonyLIV and Sony Entertainment Television on January 2, 2023. Rahul Dua, a stand-up comedian, is the show’s host. Anupam Mittal, Aman Gupta, Namita Thapar, Vineeta Singh, Peyush Bansal, and Amit Jain are among the six sharks that appear in it. For the most recent season, Ashneer Grover did not return. Ashneer, the co-founder and CEO of BharatPe, which is backed by Sequoia and Ribbit, and his wife Madhuri, the former head of controls at BharatPe, were fired from the organisation last year due to poor corporate governance.
