The show has taken a sharp decline from the high standards it set for itself in Season 1. The current season feels like any other Indian soap with the concept of entrepreneurship being sidelined and emotional coercion of the viewer being exploited to drive viewership. The sharks barring Peyush Gupta sound like any other reality TV judges by pandering to the participants emotional distress and focusing more on cheap jokes rather than actual business and numbers. The moment a participant cracks a joke or speaks of some personal trauma, the judges completely sidetrack the investment decision and dwell on the drama which is the cheapest form of entertainment in my opinion. In the previous season, Ashneer Grover was an extremely rude shark and took things too far at times but i'd still prefer him any day over these faux investors (again barring Peyush). With Ashneer there was an actual discussion and genuine feedback provided to the participants, he was very blunt about why he did/did not invest which is helpful for both the participants and is great learning for the audience. Really hoping the sharks get shuffled next season and some genuine entrepreneurs are bought on the show.
