How was your experience on Shark Tank India?
It was crazy! My overall experience on the show was amazing. It was an honour to meet and interact with such sharp minds, who are an integral part of the gigantic entrepreneurial wave that India’s witnessing. We have become a hub for startups and entrepreneurs, and the show provided them with a great platform. Also, it was not just about the participants; Shark Tank India was a great source of entertainment for viewers and made them learn about financial terminologies, new technologies and the innovations of today. The experience was insightful for all — the participants, viewers and also us judges.
