Anupam Mittal Responds After Fan Compares Shark Tank India To “Sasural Simar Ka”

Shark Tank India, a program produced by Sony Entertainment last year, unexpectedly, gained enormous popularity across the nation. Everyone who has a serious or moderately serious interest in business and entrepreneurship is aware of the rapid rise in popularity that Shark Tank India has had over the past year.

The one-of-a-kind business-based program has revolutionized the entrepreneurial scene in India by showcasing a wide range of unique, unconventional ideas developed by people all throughout the nation. It also raised the hopes of India’s budding entrepreneurs by featuring some of them on the show.

Keeping its popularity in mind, producers have come up with its second season this year. While the program has been making headlines for its innovative and new companies and BharatPe co-founder Ashneer Grover’s absence, it has also been under fire for showing far too many emotional scenes.

Many netizens troll Shark Tank India for becoming like other shows such as Indian Idol and Anupamaa, which are filled with emotional scenes and dramatic twists

Now, one netizen trolls the show by comparing it to another emotional and drama-filled show, Sasural Simar Ka.

However, on the show, one of the sharks, Anupam Mittal, reacted furiously to the comment and tried to troll the netizen sarcastically.

Anupam Mittal gives a sarcastic reply to the netizens who tries to troll Shark Tank India

Anupam Mittal, one of the sharks on Shark Tank India, got into a witty Twitter argument. On January 21, Mittal wrote on Twitter, asking if Twitter was becoming the next Quora.

Within a short span of time, his tweet attracted various kinds of responses. However, the answer that drew Mittal’s attention was a netizen named Atul Mishra’s tweet.

Replying to his tweet, Atul wrote,

“Naah but Shark Tank is the new Sasural Simar Ka”

Without wasting any time, Anupam Mittal replied to him, by writing,

“Oh good for you since you clearly watch both.”

The user, however, did not object and acknowledged that he watched both programs.

“I do and I did (for a while), it’s only after you’ve consumed sub-standard stuff, you realise the value of quality.”

Soon, the conversation was swamped with lots of other comments. Replying to one of them, Anupma Mittal wrote,

“I think as sharks we just have to be ourselves and that’s most important to keep the authenticity & innocence alive. As producers @SonyTV & @sharktankindia are constantly improvising so am sure the feedback is not lost on them … abhi season baaki hai mere dost”

After the aforementioned tweet, a user commented that “improving” and not “improvising” was the appropriate term. Mittal responded with a funny statement, saying,

“That’s why I need an edit button.”

For the uninitiated, Anupam Mittal is the founder and CEO of People Group, which includes companies including Makaan.com, Mauj Mobile, People Pictures, and Shaadi.com, the most popular marriage website in the world.
