This season introduces Kunal Bahl, co-founder of Snapdeal, as the newest shark. Bahl is a distinguished entrepreneur and investor, having successfully built and expanded various technology ventures and invested in over 250 start-ups.
A Fresh Panel of Sharks
The panel this season includes:
- Anupam Mittal
- Aman Gupta
- Namita Thapar
- Ritesh Agarwal
- Kunal Bahl
Additionally, the show welcomes new hosts, Sahiba Bali and Ashish Solanki, who bring their distinctive energy and charisma to the series. As the shooting of the new season gets underway, several controversies have come to light.
Controversial Developments
During the promo shoot, fans have noticed the absence of Vineeta Singh and Amit Jain, leading many to ask about their whereabouts on the channel’s social media platforms. Following the release of the new promo, fans have also been inquiring about former sharks like Deepinder Goyal and Ashneer Grover. Some social media comments read:
- “Deepi kha hai? Unko bulao koi yrr.”
- “We thought Ashneer ko like aaye.”
- “Asneer ka duplicate lana pad ra but trp asneer ko lane se hi aegi.”
- “Any chance of Ashneer coming back? We are missing him.”
Deepinder Goyal’s Exclusion
Another point of controversy involves Deepinder Goyal, who recently disclosed that he was left out of season 4 due to a Swiggy sponsorship agreement. He stated, “The startup culture of India is too much about showmanship. I went there to set a different narrative, be real and change how people perceive. I felt a moral obligation to go there. I shot for one weekend and gave my perspective. I, unfortunately, can’t go back because Swiggy sponsored Shark Tank and kicked me out, at least that’s what I heard.”
Comparisons Between Sharks
Fans have begun to compare Kunal Bahl with former shark Ashneer Grover. Numerous users on social media have voiced their observations about the likeness between the two. One particular comment suggested that Kunal is being dressed in a style similar to Ashneer’s, hinting at a potential effort to mirror the previous shark’s well-received image.
Kunal Bahl’s introduction to the series has elicited varied responses. While some fans embrace the fresh dynamic, others express a longing for Ashneer Grover’s influential presence. These comparisons underscore the substantial impact Ashneer Grover had on the show and reflect the high expectations fans hold for new sharks stepping into his role.
