In a new promo shared by SonyLIV on Instagram, it was revealed that the show will be titled Getting Candid With The Sharks.


The special episode will be hosted by comedian Abish Mathew. Going by the promo, the episode will feature sharks including Vineeta Singh of Sugar, Peyush Bansal of Lenskart, Anupam Mittal of Shaadi.com, Namita Thapar of Emcure, and Aman Gupta of boAt.


However, Ashneer Grover of BharatPe and Ghazal Alagh of Mama Earth were not seen.



In the promo, Abish called the panel "sharks with a heart", "a bit cynical but as sweet as possible."


In the clipping, Aman Gupta can also be heard saying (translated in English): "Normally, the average cut time is around one hour. In that, Anupam speaks for thirty minutes. Namita doesn't need to say much."


Peyush commented that Namita speaks little as she only needs to say if she has the expertise or not. This was in reference to memes on Namita and how she often gets away by saying that she doesn't have the required expertise.


Sharing the clip, SonyLIV captioned the post, "From their funny jokes to their quirky styles, we are Getting Candid With The Sharks along with Abish Mathew! Stream this exclusive episode on 11th Feb at 9 PM, only on #SonyLIV!"


With season one of the Indian versions of the global Shark Tank show concluding last week, a total of 68 out of 198 pitches cracked deals on the show.


Anupam Mittal, one of the judges, also reflected upon his journey on the show on Linkedin saying it will "change the entrepreneurial landscape forever’.  


“As the curtains come down on Season 1 of #SharkTankIndia, it’s evident that India’s entrepreneurial decade has just begun to unfurl. I’ve been reflecting on the opportunities we’ve created, the conversations we’ve started, and most importantly the fire we’ve sparked with Shark Tank India," he wrote.


He said that the show has “been the catalyst that will change India’s entrepreneurial landscape forever", and proudly shared some "cool facts".
