Shark Tank India Season 4 returns this Monday with more drama and intense discussions. Its latest promotion features YouTuber Gaurav Taneja showcasing his whey protein brand, backed by a jaw-dropping feat: ₹1 crore in sales in an hour, even with a password-protected website.
Shark Aman Gupta couldn’t contain his admiration: “It’s the dream of many companies. » Vineeta Singh echoed this sentiment with a simple but stunned: “Oh my God.”
The exchange turned witty when Taneja joked, “Shark, aaj kal har founder ko influencer banne ka kida aa gya hai” (Nowadays, every founder seems to want to become an influencer). Vineeta Singh’s response was acerbic: “Aur influencer ko founder banne ka” (And influencers seem to want to become founders).
Taneja’s partner shared the success story of his whey protein business, leaving the sharks visibly impressed. The duo’s ability to generate ₹1 crore in sales so quickly highlighted the power of influencer-driven branding. Aman Gupta hailed their success as something most businesses only dream of.
The promo also teased passionate moments between returning shark Aman Gupta and newcomer Kunal Bahl. Bahl’s bullish investment offers – ₹4 crore to close one round and ₹8 crore for another – triggered a competition among the sharks. Gupta didn’t hold back, remarking, “This is your first time on Shark Tank,” to which Bahl confidently replied, “But this isn’t my first time making deals.” »
This season highlights small-town talent and bold entrepreneurs with bold valuations. A valuation pitch of ₹250 crore prompted Aman Gupta to exclaim, “Hum pagal hain kya?” (Are we crazy?). Another team’s ₹300-crore valuation left the panel equally stunned. However, certain arguments have inspired bidding wars, highlighting the extent of the entrepreneurial ambitions displayed.
One of the most notable pitches was for an AI-powered device that could record conversations and compile knowledge data. Anupam Mittal, one of the company’s founding investors, called the technology “no different from magic.”
