In an interview, Anupam Mittal talks about a pitcher who asks about shark’s fantasyÂ
Anupam Mittal, the co-founder of shadi.com and one of the ‘sharks’ in India’s most extensive show shark tank India, recently did an exclusive interview with Indian television and radio host, announcer RJ Siddharth Kannan, where he recalled about one pitch that left an impact on him during the first season of reality show shark tank India.
He said that he remembers lots of heart-warming pitches in this show but never saw a pitch like this, and he specially mentions that their pitch makes him surprised and embarrassed too. Â
In that interview, Anupam said that guy was coming with his wife, and Anupam welcomed him to the show, and the first thing that comes out from the pitcher’s mouth is, ‘What’s your fantasy?’. Who knows what next thing that pitcher asks.
Due to many embarrassments, he hid my face with my file and decided not to continue the discussion with him.Â
Anupam continued, where that pitcher said his fantasy was a deep and round belly button. He said that everyone has not a deep and round belly button. There is a massive demand for such products where superstars from the film industry and models want deep and round belly buttons. With his creation, they or anyone else we have a fantasy like this can fulfill his fantasy.
Any one of us has to know whether to laugh or cry, and we don’t know what to do.    Â
The only thing we can do is listen to what he is saying and hide our faces. That man had invented a small device that he said could help anyone get a deep and round belly button. He asked us to show a demo of his instrument, where he called for a dancer on the stage by saying, ‘Bahar Lao Sundari ko,’ and a ‘nachaniya’(dancer) came out.
And he displayed us her deep and round belly button and clamming that his invention can help to get deep and round belly button, he also shows his product where a box contains two bottles and a plastic thing. He also told us that he and his whole family have a round belly, whereas 600 to 700 other people also buy and use his product, and now all of them have deep and round belly buttons.
So, on the one hand, I am thinking about belly buttons, and on the other hand, that pitcher is asking us for investment in his company, where all other sharks are laughing. I didn’t know what to do because we all had to see what was happening.Â
At the end of his pitch, the thing that comes is that the panel turns down the pitcher. The board also asked him some questions as Vineeta Singh asked him about free trade agreement approval, on which he said that he doesn’t have that approval, but he takes oils from a pharma company.
He also said that he had done research that noted that this plastic is safe to use on your body and has no side effects, but because he has not that approval and vineeta don’t want to invest in transformation products, she got out form this deal. Whereas Ashneer Grover
sharks lost her temper and said that this is not a problem to solve, there are many big problems in the world to solve.
You are selling such a product that has no demand and medical in the market. You are just wasting your and our time. Ashneer said that be serious in your life and start doing something good.Â
