Entrepreneur Ashneer Grover might need left Shark Tank India after its first season but he had left a big mark on the show. Be it his popular ‘Doglapan’ dialogue or his being intimidating with some contestants, Ashneer was probably the most popular panelists on the show. Nevertheless, there was one occasion when he won hearts with a heartwarming gesture towards a female entrepreneur who had been disowned by her family.
24-year-old Rakhi Pal appeared on the primary season of Shark Tank India along together with her colleagues to pitch for his or her company, Event Beep. Their enterprise enabled college students to host events and network to attach with fellow like-minded students on the Event Beep app. Nevertheless, during their pitch, the sharks were shocked to learn that Rakhi’s family had disowned her.
Rakhi Pal’s family didn’t wish her to work or start her own business and just wanted her to give attention to her household chores. The young entrepreneur needed to misinform her family and juggle each her household work and her skilled commitments for two years. Nevertheless, she was disowned by her family after she told them the reality.
Rakhi needed to live to tell the tale her own for 6-7 months and when her family called her back, they again gave her the ultimatum to depart her work and give attention to the household chores. Her story made the Shark Tank India judges emotional. They were shocked to know that even in today’s twenty first century, women are being restricted to the confines of their homes and usually are not allowed to work.
That’s when Ashneer Grover agreed to supply Rakhi Pal 30 lakhs for 3% equity of their company. Fellow sharks Aman Gupta and Peyush Bansal also agreed to come back on board with him. Nevertheless, Ashneer said that he would give an additional 10 lakhs to Rakhi individually, which is able to only go into her checking account.
Ashneer Grover said, “Primary 10 Lakh Rupay Aur Bhi Dunga, Uske (Rakhi) Security Share Ke Liye. Jo Inke Account Mein Jayenge, Company Mein Nahi Jayenge. Uski Life Sort Karni Hai. Dikkat Sabse Zyada Usko Ho Rahi Hai.”
Fans were all praises for this gesture of Ashneer Grover towards Rakhi Pal. Praising the Shark Tank India judge, one netizen said, “Everyone else empathized, praised, saluted her. Ashneer didn’t do anything like that. He pitched within the offer and gave her the support she needed. I’ve rarely seen him getting emotional with entrepreneur pitches or stories but the way in which he does these acts silently and never takes credit is applaudable.”
While one other user said, “Ashneer is a observer and reacts after listening completely… His expressions at all times stays neutral, which brings his very deep understanding and analysing nature. People criticise him because he don’t have a sugar-coated tongue and at all times give feedback genuinely.”
A netizen moreover said, “Many individuals may hate Ashneer for his arrogance but he’s one of the best shark within the show. And he knows where to indicate emotion a really strong personality.” For the unversed, after her stint on Shark Tank India, Rakhi Pal had also penned a letter expressing her gratitude to Ashneer Grover for helping her out of her perilous situation. She moreover credited Grover for reuniting her together with her family.”
