Times when Shark Tank India got trolled this season

Shark Tank India 2 has reached its season finale. The finale week has some interesting deals in its bag and viewers are all set to get amused by each business idea. However, watching the whole season some viewers have also trolled the show for these major reasons. Take a look at what made the netizens troll the reality show:

2/8

Are they Sharks or 'Loan Sharks'?

The sharks have made maximum deals with the debt. However, netizens questioned the Sharks asking why they are giving more debts than equity. A user decoded, "The number of debt deals offered to Shark Tank India pitchers has increased during the latest season, 95 pitchers had been offered contracts out of the 148 pitches that had been aired, with 32 of those deals including debt. This suggests that every third offer was a debt deal."

3/8

​Sharks only looked for profit deals

This season, Sharks have made top deals with only those brands that were well-established, viral or extremely profitable. Even actor Vishal Kotian shared his views on the same, he tweeted, "SHARKS in #SharkTankIndiaSeason2 don’t see potential but only profit. Bhai agar kisi ka pehle hi itna profit ho toh woh tumhare paas kyun aayega. Also, #AnupamMittal is trying to stand out by insulting Entrepreneurs #namitathapar hardly has any expertise other than pharma"

4/8

​Anupam Mittal and Amit Jain's major brawls

In this season, Anupam Mittal and Amit Jain have been at loggerheads many times. There was one instance when Amit slammed Anupam and said he has made four companies to which Anupam mocked him and said you could only make four pitches. I am the king around here. There have still been many instances where they have ended up in heated arguments, recently in a pitch Anupam was adamant about his words and didn't let Amit speak to the pitcher.

5/8

Anupam, Peyush and Aman's demeaning remarks for Amit Jain

Viewers have been quite upset with the Sharks for their behaviour towards new Shark Amit Jain. A Twitterati wrote," #AnupamMittal thinks he is the SHARKEST SHARK OF ALL THE SHARKS IN @sharktankindia So arrogant and Disrespectful. The way he spoke to #AmitJain was so bad. 2-4 companies bana ke kya akad aagyi hai!! Worst Shark of the season"


While another user wrote, Clearly @amitjain is not liked much by the other sharks especially @peyushbansal & @AnupamMittal and Aman Gupta.

6/8

​Former Sharks not letting Amit seal a deal

Netizens took note of how the Sharks weren't letting Amit Jain ask more questions this whole season. Here's what a user wrote, "Why do all other sharks on #SharkTankIndiaSeason2 always cut @amitjain in between questions or try to demean him or make fun of him? I feel he is very sensible and always asks every right question before jumping to conclusions. He is the only one who has reached an IPO!"

7/8

​Sharks mocking and humiliating the pitchers

There have been many instances in the show where the Sharks were quite rude to the pitchers from the breast milk jewellery pitch to the recent customized books curating brand. A user even commented on Namita's reaction and wrote, "How ironic that Namita believes books are a declining category, business is not investable and yet "signed" her copy of Dolphin and the Sharks on national TV."

Another user wrote, "#VineetaSingh interrupting & trolling #pitcher for the losses they are making is just so ironic"

8/8

​The second season got compared to Indian Idol

Many viewers realized that the emotional drama in the show has become more like Indian Idol. A user wrote, "Shark Tank is slowly becoming Indian Idol, and Anupam is the new Neha Kakkar." Another tweeted, "Waiting for the sharks to say “sorry, aap Mumbai nahi aa sakte” to an entrepreneur. Shark Tank Indian Idol #SharkTankIndiaS2"
