Radhika Gupta on being a Shark Tank India judge: 'Despite spending some money, I feel richer'

Radhika Gupta is one of the new judges to be seen on the panel of Shark Tank India season 2.

On her last day of shooting for Shark Tank India, Radhika Gupta--one of the newest judges of the popular business reality show--said that she feels richer despite spending money on budding entrepreneurs.

Sharing a video on X, the Edelweiss Mutual Funds CEO said, "Even though I have invested money, I feel like I am going back a lot richer in friendships with all the amazing Sharks (as the judges of the show are called), in learning from entrepreneurs who have come here across the length of India, especially young entrepreneurs."

The Edelweiss boss also showed off her rupee-shaped brooch which she sported on Shark Tank India. Radhika Gupta had earlier also draped a saree with the rupee motif in a previous episode of the show--a gesture that Twitter users interpreted as her commitment as an investor.
