'Shark Tank India' Season 2 debuts tomorrow; details inside
What's the story
Shark Tank India will be back with its second season soon, and fans cannot wait. The reality show based on start-ups and entrepreneurs became a household name and a rage with the start of its first season.
The concept is very much accepted in the USA and has been a successful show there, and it seems that it has become a success here too.
Context
Why does this story matter?
Many entrepreneurs had earlier said that this decade is going to be about Indian entrepreneurs. With COVID-19, many people lost jobs and started their own ventures or worked on their ideas and we saw a boom in the number of start-ups.
A platform like Shark Tank helps in supporting these new entrepreneurs and raising awareness about start-ups in general.

New changes in the tank
The reality show will be back with Aman Gupta, Peyush Bansal, Namita Thapar, and Anupam Mittal from the first sean, but there are two changes.
CEO and co-founder of CarDekho Amit Jain will be making his debut and is replacing co-founder and former MD of BharatPe Ashneer Grover.
The co-founder of Mamaearth, Ghazal Alagh, will not be coming back for the second season.
Speculation
Why was Grover replaced?
Though the makers have not said anything regarding Grover's exclusion he once said in an interview that the channel could not afford him.
Many believe that it is because of his feud with BharatPe and his subsequent resignation.
When asked about replacing Grover, Jain said that the makers approached him because they wanted a new dimension to the show.
