Namita Thapar on Shark Tank India dropping Ashneer Grover: 'One man doesn't make...'

Shark Tank India judge and executive director of Emcure Pharmaceuticals Namita Thapar has spoken out about the business reality show dropping popular "Shark" Ashneer Grover from its second season.

Soon after sharing a promo of the upcoming show, Thapar tweeted, "One person doesn’t make or break a show… not me, not anybody… this show is about celebrating our entrepreneurs, job creators… it’s about teaching masses business concepts through beautiful stories of these nation builders.. focus on that and the hard work put in by the team."

Although she did not name the former BharatPe founder, it was apparent to Twitter users that she was pointing at Ashneer Grover's absence.

When a Twitter user responded that since Shark Tank India is about stories of talent and growth with or without Grover, Namita Thapar said, "So agree! Well said."

She also hit out at a Twitter user who suggested that the show was not a real investors' pitch but just a reality show to garner TRPs.
