In 2021, Shark Tank India debuted in the Indian market, providing a valuable platform for a diverse range of entrepreneurs to showcase their businesses.
The newest Shark on the scene Ritesh Agarwal has created quite a stir online! The OYO CEO recently opened up about his wealth of knowledge on Shark Tank India and gave some details about who he would like to see as Sharks on the beloved show. The answer might just surprise you!
Ranveer Singh and Kartik Aaryan as Sharks
In an interview with Hindustan Times, was asked about the Bollywood celebs he would love to see be `Sharks` on Shark Tank India. The CEO answered, “I think Ranveer Singh would be the one. He will bring a sense of consumer understanding and energy, which we also try to bring, but of course, he will bring his own perspective.”
OYO Rooms Founder and CEO also thinks would be a perfect fit, “Kartik Aaryan is a small-town person, but has done very smart things. Not much is talked about him, but he came from a small town and became very successful in Bollywood. He has done it all, but very quietly and systematically and made a bunch of investments. I would say these two (Ranveer Singh and Kartik Aaryan) would be best.”
