1
00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:11,200
'Welcome, everyone to the final
match of kabaddi tournament.'

2
00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:13,160
The table is there
to keep the folders.

3
00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:16,960
There were lipstick mark
on my glass.

4
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:19,760
Your glass?
I can't even reach it.

5
00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:23,840
His allegation is justified.
But how can you allege

6
00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:25,400
unless you drink from my glass.

7
00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:29,160
It is like saying, the sugar
is non-spice. - Standby, please.

8
00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:32,560
Hello, Sharks. The AC is full on
but still it is warm.

9
00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:35,000
- Shall I have some water?
- Sure.

10
00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:39,800
It is dirty.
There are also fingerprints.

11
00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:44,160
There are lipstick mark on it
also. - Is it your glass?

12
00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:46,720
- Sugar cosmetics?
- Yes.

13
00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:48,880
Sugar cosmetics
is transfer-proof.

14
00:02:48,920 --> 00:02:50,280
It is Aman's glass.

15
00:02:50,920 --> 00:02:53,560
It must've happened with you
also when you visit a hotel

16
00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:56,880
a restaurant, an office party
or a kitty party..

17
00:02:56,920 --> 00:02:59,360
You might've ordered a drink

18
00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:03,280
and the rim of your glass
is not really clean.

19
00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:06,240
So, Sharks,
this is my solution

20
00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:08,480
Sippline Drinking Shields.

21
00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:12,720
Sippline is a sterilised

22
00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:15,120
reusable and a portable
attachment

23
00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:18,640
which will fit your glass
and when you're drinking

24
00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:22,760
your lips is not touching
the glass, directly.

25
00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:29,160
Now, the dream of Sippline is..

26
00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:31,960
The way we're used to masks

27
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:34,560
the same way, the world
should also use Sippline.

28
00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:37,680
This is basically,
the mask of your glass.

29
00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:41,480
I'm asking for Rs. 75 lakhs

30
00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:44,280
for 15 percent Equity
from our company.

31
00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:47,360
- So, Sharks.. - I am out.
- Sorry?

32
00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:50,080
- I am out.
- Even I am out.

33
00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:55,880
What are you trying prove, pal?
Is this some kind of a joke?

34
00:03:57,360 --> 00:03:59,600
Do you drink too much?

35
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:02,680
I mean, how could you get
such an idea

36
00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:05,360
of making a glass
wear a mask? - Okay..

37
00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:10,080
I got the idea because I
faced the problem. - Problem?

38
00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:12,160
One can also use a straw
in a restaurtant.

39
00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:14,320
Does this product
exists abroad?

40
00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:16,480
Ma'am, this is the first product
in the world..

41
00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:18,840
It is the first
and last product!

42
00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:22,280
Nobody will ever try
to make such products.

43
00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:24,400
- I've strong views on it.
- Okay.

44
00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:28,760
- Actually, you're standing here.
- Yes.

45
00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:32,760
- Nobody else is standing here.
- Okay. - At least, value that.

46
00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:34,720
I'd say, this product..

47
00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:38,360
I've never seen such
a disgusting product

48
00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:43,120
nor I want to see it.
God forbid, it's a bad product!

49
00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:46,080
After this, I don't want to
see anything else in life.

50
00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:54,080
I respect your thoughts.
Not you but many think

51
00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:56,120
this is valuable.. - No.
Maybe tipplers

52
00:04:56,160 --> 00:05:00,040
who are fussy will not
have problem with this product.

53
00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:03,240
Why is there a double 'P'
in your brand?

54
00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:06,080
I didn't want to keep double 'P'

55
00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:09,240
but website address compelled
me to add one more 'P'.

56
00:05:09,280 --> 00:05:11,800
- It sounds better.
- Nobody can trace your website

57
00:05:11,840 --> 00:05:15,360
- if they use the normal spelling.
- They'll find it, ma'am.

58
00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:20,200
- Sippline only has one product.
- Nobody wants to search for it.

59
00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:24,040
Just a moment.
Let's bring it all back.

60
00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:27,480
For you, this is a problem which
you want to solve it, right?

61
00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:30,080
- Why only during COVID times?
- No, sir.

62
00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:32,040
Actually, I'd made this in 2016

63
00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:33,920
but I launched it
when COVID struck.

64
00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:35,880
What we say Covidpreneur..
Which we call..

65
00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:37,120
Not really a COVID product.

66
00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:39,280
It avoids cross contamination
of any kind.

67
00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:40,840
What was your sales last month?

68
00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:43,640
Till now,
we've sold 1200 pieces.

69
00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:47,240
I agree, sales are less.
There are four reasons to it.

70
00:05:47,280 --> 00:05:49,120
First reason,
there is less awareness.

71
00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:52,000
Second, we jeopardised
the marketing.

72
00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:53,800
The messaging which we
wanted to convey

73
00:05:53,840 --> 00:05:55,680
we really couldn't pass on
that message.

74
00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:58,320
Third, the sales guy I'd hired

75
00:05:58,360 --> 00:05:59,720
he was on and off
on medical leave.

76
00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:02,600
So, I didn't get
the business continuity.

77
00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:06,680
Actually, his sales person used
to get thrashed by prospects.

78
00:06:06,840 --> 00:06:09,240
- Then, he used to go on medical..
- Nothing of that sort, sir.

79
00:06:09,280 --> 00:06:12,600
- What I said, is right.
- New concept needs awareness.

80
00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:14,360
Let's cut short the joke.

81
00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:16,280
When we all started
doing business

82
00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:20,120
people used to mock us.
So, don't get discouraged.

83
00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:23,080
You don't seem to be a person
to be discouraged, right?

84
00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:24,360
Of course.

85
00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:29,480
I'd like to say,
if the idea had been good

86
00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:34,360
then, with very minimum
marketing, it would take off.

87
00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:37,520
You're not getting sales

88
00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:41,680
because there isn't a need
or a demand.

89
00:06:41,840 --> 00:06:43,440
For that reason, I am out.

90
00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:47,160
Think from your consumer's
perspective.

91
00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:48,480
The name of your brand..

92
00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:50,760
You didn't get any website
or any trademark.

93
00:06:50,840 --> 00:06:52,960
So, you kept
this complicated brand name.

94
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:54,800
You are not thinking
from the customer's perspective

95
00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:55,880
that what he wants.

96
00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:58,200
You are not concerned
that the finicky customer

97
00:06:58,280 --> 00:07:00,560
will not remember it when he
will go to any restaurant

98
00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:01,960
that he needs to carry
it with him.

99
00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:05,000
If he is finicky then he
will ask for a straw.

100
00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:07,240
Most of the people
don't even think about it.

101
00:07:07,280 --> 00:07:08,720
So, for that reason, I am out.

102
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:12,000
Let me summarise for you,
my friend.

103
00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:16,000
I do not see any other customer
except Aman.

104
00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:18,240
Because Aman faces
this problem daily.

105
00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:19,720
So, he will buy it from you.

106
00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:21,160
Secondly..

107
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:24,160
This is called a solution
looking for a problem.

108
00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:27,320
And if you want
to change this habit

109
00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:30,480
then it will take millions
and millions of dollars.

110
00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:34,400
And you should invest that kind
of money for a product

111
00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:35,800
which you can defend.

112
00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:38,120
There's no defensibility
in this product.

113
00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:40,080
If it works
then there's no differentiator.

114
00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:42,160
There will be knock-offs
everywhere.

115
00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:45,120
It is only a plastic ring
around a glass.

116
00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:47,000
So for that reason,
I am also out.

117
00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:49,520
And unfortunately,
you don't have an offer today.

118
00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:54,720
But sir, the scope in this
is unlike any other business.

119
00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:57,040
If you feel that
then prove us wrong.

120
00:07:57,240 --> 00:07:58,600
Go out and prove us wrong.

121
00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:00,080
But we don't think
this will work.

122
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:01,000
All the best.

123
00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:01,960
- Thank you.
- Thank you.

124
00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:03,880
- Thank you so much..
- Thank you. - Bye.

125
00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:12,720
'Welcome, everyone to the final
match of kabaddi tournament.'

126
00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:16,320
'The two teams who have reached
the finals of this tournament'

127
00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:19,360
'defeating all the other
big teams are..'

128
00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:21,040
'Anupam Ke Ajoobe'

129
00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:24,520
'and Vineeta Ke Warriors!'

130
00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:34,760
'This is going to be
a very thrilling match.'

131
00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:38,480
'It will raise your heartbeat
for sure.'

132
00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:43,600
Vineeta's warriors are up
against 'Anupam Ke Ajoobe'.

133
00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:46,200
Vineeta's warriors are leading
by one point.

134
00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:47,880
Final moments of this game.

135
00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:50,480
And 'Anupam Ke Ajoobe'
have Omraj

136
00:08:50,560 --> 00:08:51,600
raiding for them.

137
00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:53,440
Looks for the far side.

138
00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:54,400
Comes back to the middle.

139
00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:56,480
Looks for the cover
and then jump off the chain.

140
00:08:56,560 --> 00:08:57,600
Fantastic!

141
00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:00,400
'Anupam Ke Ajoobe'
are back in the match.

142
00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:06,280
Final raid of the encounter.

143
00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:07,680
The scores are leveled.

144
00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:09,600
This is what it comes down to.

145
00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:11,920
The champion of 'Shark Tank',
right here.

146
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:13,920
'Anupam Ke Ajoobe' have Omraj.

147
00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:15,800
- The defense got to go.
- Go!

148
00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:17,200
It's huge crash.

149
00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:22,880
He is off court. And it's a win

150
00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:24,400
for Vineeta's warriors.

151
00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:26,120
This is history being created

152
00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:27,560
in 'The Shark Tank'.

153
00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:31,360
- Boys, well played.
- Well done..

154
00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:34,080
Sharks, did you enjoy?

155
00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:35,960
- Indeed, we enjoyed a lot.
- I am glad.

156
00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:38,920
You just saw a small glimpse
of why kabaddi

157
00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:41,480
is gripping the nation
completely

158
00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:43,160
over the last few years
as well.

159
00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:45,000
But kabaddi is a game

160
00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:47,760
where you need a piece of land
and some people.

161
00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:50,080
This is India's game.

162
00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:52,400
And this is a 4000 years
old game.

163
00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:56,760
But India's game has come
back in an all new avatar.

164
00:09:56,880 --> 00:09:58,320
It's back with a bang as well.

165
00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:01,680
And it is today India's
second most watched sport.

166
00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:05,040
50 crore people are watching
kabaddi in our country.

167
00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:07,480
So, I am Suhail Chandhok.

168
00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:08,880
And I have Arvind Sivdas
with me.

169
00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:10,920
And we are the co-founders
at 'Kabaddi Adda'.

170
00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:14,000
So, 'Kabaddi Adda' is a platform

171
00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:17,120
where we aim to bring kabaddi
to the screens

172
00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:20,240
of every Indian household,
every day of the year.

173
00:10:20,680 --> 00:10:22,120
How do we do this, Suhail?

174
00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:25,000
We do this with the use of our
three pillars of foundation.

175
00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:28,080
Our first pillar is our content
and distribution platform.

176
00:10:29,560 --> 00:10:30,760
This is our base platform.

177
00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:33,080
Our website
and our social media handles.

178
00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:35,280
We have more
than 1.5 crore views.

179
00:10:35,680 --> 00:10:39,200
And we have more than five lakh
engaged subscribers already.

180
00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:41,760
Yes, absolutely.
And that's a huge number

181
00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:44,200
for us already.
Our second pillar is..

182
00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:46,400
It is obviously our
tournament in a box.

183
00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:47,800
That is our tournament suite.

184
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:52,440
Here we spruce up the existing
local kabaddi tournaments.

185
00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:53,800
We give them relevance.

186
00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:55,520
We bring viewers for them.

187
00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:57,800
Most importantly, we bring
revenue stream.

188
00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:00,520
And our third
and latest initiative

189
00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:02,720
is our very own tournament,
the 'K7'.

190
00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:06,160
So, 'K7' is an asset
that we own completely.

191
00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:10,320
You know, it's 83 games
in our first season.

192
00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:13,000
For us, it's really a platform,
a product

193
00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:15,520
where we wanted to give
a platform for youth talent

194
00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:18,040
to showcase ability,
to showcase talent.

195
00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:20,920
20 players have already received
contracts

196
00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:22,440
in 'Pro Kabaddi' franchise.

197
00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:25,800
That's more than 10 per cent
of all the players

198
00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:27,760
that were picked up
in the recent kabaddi auction.

199
00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:30,480
And that's for us is a huge
heartwarming fact.

200
00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:32,560
Even for these boys that have
come through like this.

201
00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:33,640
This is what we are doing.

202
00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:35,200
With 'K7' and Kabaddi Adda'

203
00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:37,760
we are transforming lives
through the power of sport.

204
00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:39,880
And Sharks, we are here
to ask for 80 lakh rupees

205
00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:41,000
for one per cent of our company

206
00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:43,280
as we would like you
to raid with us

207
00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:44,880
as we take Kabaddi to the world.

208
00:11:47,680 --> 00:11:50,560
I want to introduce Arvind
to my entire panel.

209
00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:54,240
So, of all the passionate
about sports people

210
00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:56,040
in the world that I know..

211
00:11:56,240 --> 00:11:58,880
I think Arvind's probably
on top.

212
00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:02,040
He is my batch mate
from IIT Madras.

213
00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:05,840
And both of us used to play
inter IIT sports

214
00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:08,280
for IIT Madras.

215
00:12:08,680 --> 00:12:11,480
And his wife, Dhanya..

216
00:12:11,560 --> 00:12:13,680
She was my badminton partner.

217
00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:16,480
And we won gold medal
for IIT madras together.

218
00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:18,760
Wow! - She is also
a co-founder with us.

219
00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:20,760
- Dhanya.. His wife is also..
- Wow! Okay. She also there.

220
00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:22,680
Three of us. - She's our third
co-founder. - Okay..

221
00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:24,040
Awesome! - Did you know
that they were coming?

222
00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:25,440
No. I had no idea.

223
00:12:25,560 --> 00:12:26,800
- In fact, I..
- We kept it quiet.

224
00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:28,520
That's why you made her team
the winner.

225
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:31,480
- Of course..
- We will give you a chance.

226
00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:33,280
- If you want to play..
- You have a choice.

227
00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:34,240
- You can win it for your team.
- We are ready to make

228
00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:36,480
you try. Would you like to try
an ankle hold?

229
00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:38,040
- Kabaddi?
- Yes. - Yes.

230
00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:39,200
- They will.. - Of course.
- Do you want to try?

231
00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:40,560
- Come on, Aman.
- You can.. Your team can win.

232
00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:41,920
Come on.. Let's go.

233
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:43,440
- Okay, let's go.
- Aman, let's go.

234
00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:45,960
- Who was cornered?
- I don't know. - Defense.

235
00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:48,120
Aman, think before you go.

236
00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:49,480
You have a chance, Anupam.

237
00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:50,880
I play only to win.

238
00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:52,040
Which team is going to be
the winner?

239
00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:54,040
Right now it is going
to be one against one.

240
00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:55,240
We must win.

241
00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:58,320
Why am I feeling like this is
going to be a wrestling match?

242
00:12:59,840 --> 00:13:01,560
Careful, guys.

243
00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:05,440
Let me tell you one thing.
Don't beat me. - No. Understand.

244
00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:08,640
Once you catch him
don't leave him.

245
00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:11,240
Fine, let's do it.

246
00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:13,600
- Sorry, this is not needed.
- This is not boxing.

247
00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:17,040
If this boat can ride the way
better be great.

248
00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:18,600
Don't give up.

249
00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:23,360
- Kabaddi..
- Where should I go?

250
00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:25,160
You should touch that line
and return.

251
00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:26,640
Okay. - That's very easy.

252
00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:28,400
Don't give up.

253
00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:33,080
- Quick..
- Go for it.

254
00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:34,640
Touch few and get out.

255
00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:37,880
Like this, right?

256
00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:41,080
It's a tie. Well done.
It's a tie.

257
00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:43,040
Oh! Now it is equal, right?

258
00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:44,240
Anupam, this was for you.

259
00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:47,280
We made it a tie so that it is
a tie in the marriage as well.

260
00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:49,240
Thank you.

261
00:13:49,680 --> 00:13:51,240
- Always equal.
- Thank you so much.

262
00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:53,480
Do a thigh five for our sharks.

263
00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:56,640
One. Two. Three.

264
00:13:56,720 --> 00:13:58,040
Thigh five.

265
00:13:58,120 --> 00:13:59,240
Thanks boys.
Thank you.

266
00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:00,280
Well played.

267
00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:02,200
Thigh five.
I like that.

268
00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:05,680
Indian are passionate
more about Cricket.

269
00:14:05,680 --> 00:14:07,360
First you tell me.
Who among you

270
00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:10,600
came up with this idea

271
00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:11,560
and how?

272
00:14:11,680 --> 00:14:13,200
Now India is not
only about Cricket.

273
00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:15,360
People are passionate about
Cricket and Kabaddi both.

274
00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:20,440
I had been involved with
Pro Kabbadi league

275
00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:21,520
since 2014

276
00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:23,200
as a presenter and commentator
with them.

277
00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:25,760
When the first match began

278
00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:26,800
in 2014

279
00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:29,080
and the live match happened

280
00:14:29,280 --> 00:14:31,120
we knew that we were
on to something special.

281
00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:32,640
I'm getting goosebumps now

282
00:14:32,760 --> 00:14:35,520
because that day Mr. Amitabh,
Mr. Sachin

283
00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:38,440
Mr. Amir and all big celebrities
came to watch the sport.

284
00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:41,600
We didn't know
what's going to happen.

285
00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:43,880
I remember many saying
what's next, Gilli Danda league

286
00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:45,640
or Kho Kho league?

287
00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:47,360
But everyone was proved wrong.

288
00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:48,680
Including I'll say myself.

289
00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:50,960
I was a professional cricketer

290
00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:52,440
eight years back.

291
00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:54,360
I never imagined standing here
today as a

292
00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:56,600
Kabaddi co-founder
or a Kabaddi commentator.

293
00:14:56,600 --> 00:14:58,520
- Let me be honest with you.
- You said you were a cricketer.

294
00:14:58,520 --> 00:15:00,200
Yes. Unfortunately when I

295
00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:02,400
had an IPL contract in my hand
back in 2009

296
00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:03,600
I had my first surgery

297
00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:05,320
on my knee
in 2010 January.

298
00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:07,120
- Sorry to hear that.
- I had subsequent surgeries

299
00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:08,800
in 2012 and 2014.

300
00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:09,880
So, I had three knee surgeries.

301
00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:13,280
And I had to give up
that dream.

302
00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:15,080
But in some sense

303
00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:18,920
Cricket is still
my first love. - Yes.

304
00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:20,160
But Kabbadi has become life.

305
00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:22,880
Nice. - In that sense, it has
given me a second innings.

306
00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:25,360
He met his wife
through Kabbadi.

307
00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:26,960
I met my wife
through Kabbadi.

308
00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:30,080
As they say to achieve something
we may lose a few things.

309
00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:33,400
Now let's talk
about the numbers.

310
00:15:34,360 --> 00:15:37,760
Tell us about

311
00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:38,880
your sales

312
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:41,120
because your valuation
is very high.

313
00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:42,800
- Of course.
- It's Rs. 80 Crores.

314
00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:46,240
In the first year we achieved
Rs. 24 lakh revenue.

315
00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:50,680
In the second year
we achieved Rs. 50 lakh revenue.

316
00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:52,800
This year
so far we have

317
00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:55,320
reached Rs. 1.2 Crores
revenue.

318
00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:57,320
We will do about
Rs. 2.5 Crores.

319
00:15:57,680 --> 00:16:00,840
And for the next year we have
signed contracts worth

320
00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:04,080
Rs. 10 Crore to Rs. 15 Crores.

321
00:16:05,560 --> 00:16:08,360
But does this bring profit?

322
00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:10,520
We are the proof that
it brings profit.

323
00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:11,800
How much?

324
00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:14,760
Gross margin
is about 80 percent.

325
00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:17,800
About 40 percent of the
revenue we earn

326
00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:19,520
is invested
in the ecosystem.

327
00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:23,720
It's a 30 to 40 percent
gross margin business.

328
00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:25,840
So we are actually profitable.

329
00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:28,600
Is it 80 percent
or 30 to 40 percent?

330
00:16:28,640 --> 00:16:30,280
80 percent is our gross margin.

331
00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:32,960
- 30 to 40 is net profit.
- Yes.

332
00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:34,160
Let's break and understand

333
00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:35,640
how you are making profit.

334
00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:40,480
You said you'll conduct
500 matches. - Yes.

335
00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:42,040
How much will you earn
per match?

336
00:16:42,040 --> 00:16:46,760
Okay. Rs. 3 to Rs. 5 lakh
revenue for every match.

337
00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:48,320
Who is giving you
Rs. 5 lakh?

338
00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:49,800
It is split.

339
00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:52,360
The majority of it comes
from our media parter.

340
00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:54,240
IPL rights get sold.

341
00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:56,560
So, Star Sports buy rights to
showcase it on their platform.

342
00:16:56,600 --> 00:16:58,720
So, these 500 matches
will be telecasted on TV.

343
00:16:59,080 --> 00:16:59,960
OTT.

344
00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:02,040
You'll be paid by Disney Hotstar
or similar such companies.

345
00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:04,080
Yes. - Correct. - What's
the profit source

346
00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:05,240
if we exclude
the TV rights?

347
00:17:06,680 --> 00:17:09,600
Sponsorship is definitely
one aspect.

348
00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:12,280
But fantasy becomes a massive
revenue stream, right?

349
00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:14,080
And today, if you see

350
00:17:14,120 --> 00:17:17,800
we have two unicorns
on fantasy alone.

351
00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:21,360
And on every fantasy. - They can
have it on your match.

352
00:17:21,400 --> 00:17:23,880
The data comes from our side
so data is owned by us.

353
00:17:24,360 --> 00:17:26,320
We biggest player of data
for Kabaddi today.

354
00:17:28,120 --> 00:17:32,680
Arvind and Sohail, my husband
and I run a basketball league

355
00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:34,640
- In Pune. - Wow!
- Under YEA banner.

356
00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:39,320
And my sons aged 15 and 10
are very passionate

357
00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:40,640
about that league.

358
00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:44,480
And we have been doing it
for past three years.

359
00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:48,480
Secondly, the fact that you
encourage an Indian sport

360
00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:52,440
- at a grassroot level is great.
- Thank you.

361
00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:56,320
I have an offer for you.
Eight million for five percent.

362
00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:01,360
- Wow!
- Wow, thank you!

363
00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:06,000
- Just to give you one addition.
- We just closed funding round.

364
00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:09,360
- And Shecapital is come on board.
- At what valuation?

365
00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:11,560
80 Crores pre-money.
100 Crores pre-money.

366
00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:14,320
How much did you take?
20 Crores? - Yes.

367
00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:19,960
One of the parts of the pitch
was to grow women's Kabaddi.

368
00:18:20,440 --> 00:18:21,800
There were no investments
for women sports.

369
00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:23,680
We created Mahila Mondays.

370
00:18:24,120 --> 00:18:26,000
From January for next six months

371
00:18:26,120 --> 00:18:28,600
every Monday we have four games
of Women's Kabaddi.

372
00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:32,320
- Really nice to hear that.
- I like Mahila Monday.

373
00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:35,600
- Yes. Mahila Monday.
- Has a nice ring to it.

374
00:18:35,760 --> 00:18:40,520
Why did you come here
offering a one percent stake?

375
00:18:42,160 --> 00:18:44,720
We want to get sharks on board

376
00:18:45,720 --> 00:18:47,600
as need help in brand building.

377
00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:51,160
And for now we have the product
but no brand.

378
00:18:53,040 --> 00:18:56,080
I believe it is very difficult
to make money here.

379
00:18:57,400 --> 00:19:00,840
Kabaddi is different
but I feel

380
00:19:01,120 --> 00:19:05,440
that you are not here for money
or for Sharks

381
00:19:05,880 --> 00:19:10,680
but you are here to promote
your league, all right?

382
00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:15,440
As you already have 20 Crores
from Shecapital

383
00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:19,080
and all the support
and branding you need

384
00:19:19,360 --> 00:19:21,360
is being given to you.

385
00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:25,080
Hence due to your valuation

386
00:19:25,360 --> 00:19:28,640
- I am sorry but I am out.
- Sure, thank you.

387
00:19:28,840 --> 00:19:31,840
But we are here with
a clear goal.

388
00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:33,560
Fair point.

389
00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:37,240
- Namita, can I speak to you?
- Of course.

390
00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:40,680
I have invested heavily
in sports of late.

391
00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:44,040
So I value sports.

392
00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:45,800
For a business.

393
00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:48,640
But what you are doing

394
00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:52,800
is I still see leagues
as a club. - Right.

395
00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:57,720
Correct. - It is more of a show
and game for fun.

396
00:19:57,920 --> 00:20:00,400
I understand. - I do not see
any business here.

397
00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:03,000
So I am out.

398
00:20:05,120 --> 00:20:08,080
- Sure, thanks. - Speak to others.
- Thank you, Ashneer.

399
00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:14,520
Arvind, Sohail, you have
a good valuation.

400
00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:18,360
And you know
we need to know it better

401
00:20:18,640 --> 00:20:22,080
and so for now I find this
to be very early

402
00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:26,920
so how I can help you?
You need to develop further.

403
00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:29,840
I can leave it on them.
I am out for now.

404
00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:32,040
- Will you be our sponsor?
- Yes.

405
00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:33,680
We'll come back to you
for sponsorship. - Yes.

406
00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:38,440
You will not need it. We will
come to you.

407
00:20:38,560 --> 00:20:40,200
- Thank you.
- Thank you.

408
00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:43,840
You have two sharks.
Women.

409
00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:47,640
Vineeta and I can come
together.

410
00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:50,960
But since we bring different
strength as each

411
00:20:51,560 --> 00:20:54,280
and my acumen be my experience

412
00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:57,120
be it financial terms
and operational terms.

413
00:20:57,400 --> 00:21:00,800
She has built a brand and good
consumer outreach

414
00:21:01,400 --> 00:21:04,640
but for the expertise we bring

415
00:21:05,120 --> 00:21:09,960
we seek six percent
for 80 lakhs.

416
00:21:12,360 --> 00:21:15,400
So we get three percent each.
Skin in the game.

417
00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:21,240
Thank you, you both bring
different aspects.

418
00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:24,960
We bring very different sides
and we appreciate that.

419
00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:27,920
We have a counter offer.

420
00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:33,240
1.2 Crores for five percent?

421
00:21:37,840 --> 00:21:41,520
We all know that revenue here
is long term.

422
00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:44,960
Yes. - We speak of a decade
ahead. - Exactly.

423
00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:47,520
- We cannot go below six.
- Okay.

424
00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:51,000
Will you be willing to do
one crore for six?

425
00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:54,200
No, I am sorry.
We should stop right here.

426
00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:57,440
- Go ahead. Tell us.
- We have been very clear.

427
00:21:57,560 --> 00:21:58,680
Yes or no?

428
00:21:59,880 --> 00:22:02,480
Six, we have to give
so how much?

429
00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:05,680
We'll structure it
separately.

430
00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:08,120
Between you and myself..

431
00:22:08,280 --> 00:22:11,120
Let me give a countdown here.
Ten.

432
00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:12,600
- Yes. - Nine.
- Come on.

433
00:22:12,760 --> 00:22:14,040
Speak forth. - Namita
and Vineeta.

434
00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:15,280
It is a deal.

435
00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:19,280
- Thank you. Good luck.
- Congratulations, guys.

436
00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:23,080
Very nice to meet you.

437
00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:26,200
I am really missing
my friend here.

438
00:22:26,360 --> 00:22:29,840
- We should've been in the middle.
- I am so excited.

439
00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:36,320
Awesome, I am super excited
about this.

440
00:22:36,440 --> 00:22:39,120
Looking forward to work
together. - Thank you.

441
00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:41,600
- Thanks a lot. - Congrats.
- We will need you.

442
00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:42,920
We will get in touch.

443
00:22:43,040 --> 00:22:44,760
- Thank you. Thanks.
- Bye.

444
00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:47,840
- Yes?
- Nice.

445
00:22:50,360 --> 00:22:52,560
Vineeta, we did a deal
together.

446
00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:56,080
- Awesome! Super excited!
- Super! Super!

447
00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:18,160
- Hello, Sharks.
- Hi, Sharks.

448
00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:21,080
- I am Nidhi.
- I am Anuj.

449
00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:24,600
We are founders of shades
of Spring.

450
00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:32,160
We have come here from
Bengaluru.

451
00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:37,400
Since ancient times,
flowers have been gifted

452
00:23:37,600 --> 00:23:39,720
across the cultures as a popular
choice of gift.

453
00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:42,880
Be it an occasion or a festival.

454
00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:44,120
Or marriages.

455
00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:46,360
Or any expression of emotions.

456
00:23:46,520 --> 00:23:49,480
Flowers make things special.

457
00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:54,120
If you get a flower
for no reason

458
00:23:54,360 --> 00:23:57,360
then you get a smile.

459
00:23:57,520 --> 00:24:00,320
You are here
for a reason, right?

460
00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:05,480
- Not yet certain.
- Right.

461
00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:07,480
- Thank you very much.
- They are beautiful.

462
00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:09,080
Thank you, they are lovely.

463
00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:10,000
Thank you.

464
00:24:11,080 --> 00:24:14,680
I have never seen this before.
Is this a husk?

465
00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:17,920
- Pampas grass.
- It is a flower?

466
00:24:18,360 --> 00:24:21,040
Strange! - Matches
with my dress.

467
00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:22,200
You need some more.

468
00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:24,600
- Here you go.
- Thank you.

469
00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:28,240
Global gifting industry
is of 50,00,000 Crores.

470
00:24:28,520 --> 00:24:31,400
And flowers are the main
anchor product.

471
00:24:31,720 --> 00:24:36,520
But where is the company that
deals in flowers for us?

472
00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:39,520
One that we tell
our friends about.

473
00:24:39,800 --> 00:24:44,040
What company will combine
brand and florists?

474
00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:45,520
The supply chain and sourcing?

475
00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:46,680
And tech and data.

476
00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:50,760
So we get exotic flowers
every month and every season.

477
00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:54,920
Think no more. Presenting
Shades of spring.

So Sharks who is willing
to invest

490
00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:42,400
in worlds best gifting flower
industry.

491
00:25:42,560 --> 00:25:45,320
We are here to raise
three crores

492
00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:48,120
for one percent stake
in our business.

493
00:25:48,240 --> 00:25:49,800
Wow!

494
00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:52,160
I am shocked.

495
00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:55,600
The fragrance is now gone.

496
00:25:55,880 --> 00:25:58,200
Do you know the valuation?

497
00:25:58,320 --> 00:26:00,800
- Yes. - How much?
- 300 Crores. - Yes.

498
00:26:00,920 --> 00:26:02,600
So you must have a revenue
of Rs. 100 Crores.

499
00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:07,960
Our revenue for this year
is of nine crores.

500
00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:09,840
- Wow!
- Not bad.

501
00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:12,800
Not bad. - Last year we did
two and a half Crores.

502
00:26:13,160 --> 00:26:17,960
And first year on WhatsApp
we gained five million.

503
00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:19,760
What is your margin in this?

504
00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:22,800
Gross margin is 29 percent.

505
00:26:24,680 --> 00:26:27,520
Is this not less
for this industry?

506
00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:30,920
It is fresh produce industry.
Margin should be more.

507
00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:35,440
I find the valuation
to be very steep.

508
00:26:35,560 --> 00:26:39,000
A valuation of 300 crore
on revenue of nine crores?

509
00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:41,240
It does not fit
by any multiple.

510
00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:44,720
We held this valuation
because..

511
00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:48,640
More than 75 percent of revenue
is from Bangalore city

512
00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:51,640
we have projected growth
for future.

513
00:26:51,920 --> 00:26:55,840
We did through discounted
cash flow.

514
00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:57,280
We have heard it many times.

515
00:26:57,440 --> 00:26:59,480
I can give you a spreadsheet
of discounted cashflow

516
00:26:59,520 --> 00:27:01,120
and you will not
understand a thing.

517
00:27:02,280 --> 00:27:06,440
Let's not try to
fake it till you make it.

518
00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:10,120
Forget how evaluation happens.
One should have rough idea

519
00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:13,400
about what a business is worth.
Well..

520
00:27:13,520 --> 00:27:17,120
You own a 9 crore business.
if your margin is 30 percent

521
00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:19,080
you earn 3 crores a year.

522
00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:22,520
For 3 crores you don't have
a 100 times bid, either.

523
00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:24,120
It's a gross margin multiple.

524
00:27:24,240 --> 00:27:28,080
So hundred times?
If you do not grow

525
00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:30,240
and invest at this evaluation

526
00:27:30,360 --> 00:27:32,640
I'll recover it in 100 years.

527
00:27:34,520 --> 00:27:37,960
Business isn't just
selling your goods.

528
00:27:38,080 --> 00:27:41,640
You must have a general
awareness of the market

529
00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:44,280
and if you ask anyone
for anything

530
00:27:44,360 --> 00:27:46,960
you should know if you'd look
smart or foolish.

531
00:27:49,360 --> 00:27:51,200
I'm really sorry.
You looked like fools in this.

532
00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:53,160
I respect your business.

533
00:27:53,280 --> 00:27:55,760
Selling 9 crores worth goods
in India is difficult.

534
00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:58,560
Be it any item.
I respect the business.

535
00:27:58,680 --> 00:28:02,120
But I'm really sorry. You lost
me on general awareness.

536
00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:06,640
Your problem is
you're in the flower business

537
00:28:06,760 --> 00:28:08,480
and think others are fools.

538
00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:13,240
Your evaluation of 300 crores
makes it clear.

539
00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:17,200
It's not evaluated so high.

540
00:28:17,560 --> 00:28:20,600
It has no evaluation
because it'd be okay

541
00:28:20,720 --> 00:28:23,640
if you got anything logically.

542
00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:26,760
But I'll be a fool to give you
300 crores.

543
00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:29,480
I'm sorry to say,
I'm also out.

544
00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:33,280
Two sharks are out
and it's because

545
00:28:33,360 --> 00:28:38,160
you put the evaluation so high
that everyone was baffled!

546
00:28:38,880 --> 00:28:41,440
You threw a few big words.

547
00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:44,560
Data, subscription..
I wish to know about it.

548
00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:47,600
But first tell me
when you started this

549
00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:50,080
and how you know each other.
Give some background info.

550
00:28:50,200 --> 00:28:52,360
- We met on Shaadi.com.
- Wow!

551
00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:57,720
Well done! - He's even
wearing purple like you.

552
00:28:57,840 --> 00:29:01,440
- Yes, we match.
- Even their brand colour.

553
00:29:01,560 --> 00:29:03,520
Purple.

554
00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:07,080
I meet a couple married on
Shaadi.com almost every week.

555
00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:09,520
- That's so great!
- Great to meet you this week.

556
00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:11,360
Deal done.
Give the money.

557
00:29:13,040 --> 00:29:15,240
So your currently revenue
of 9 crore..

558
00:29:15,360 --> 00:29:17,680
How do customers find you?

559
00:29:17,800 --> 00:29:19,960
And what sells the most?

560
00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:22,880
Our 50 percent revenue
is through subscriptions

561
00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:25,880
where customers give
whole revenue upfront.

562
00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:30,080
We have a subscription box.
I can give you a demo.

563
00:29:30,200 --> 00:29:32,120
Okay.

564
00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:36,720
- So this costs 350 Rupees.
- Yes.

565
00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:40,920
Every box has instructions.

566
00:29:41,280 --> 00:29:44,480
It states what you have to do.

567
00:29:45,120 --> 00:29:48,280
So it's self-consumption.
If I want fresh flowers at home

568
00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:50,800
- then I'll get these.
- Yes.

569
00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:54,000
- This is not a gifting business.
- 80 percent is self-consumption

570
00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:56,640
- and 20 percent for gifting.
- But how does gifting work?

571
00:29:56,760 --> 00:30:00,640
- Do I need to put a ribbon again?
- You can visit our website.

572
00:30:00,760 --> 00:30:03,760
There you can buy
a gift subscription.

573
00:30:03,880 --> 00:30:07,600
- Do I send this box to someone?
- It's a six month subscription.

574
00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:11,160
But in India people might
not like this.

575
00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:14,120
You can buy
a bouquet for Rs. 600.

576
00:30:14,240 --> 00:30:18,960
But you send this instead.
Isn't it a bad gift experience?

577
00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:25,160
Actually, the thing is

578
00:30:25,280 --> 00:30:27,920
you can gift an average bouquet
worth 1500

579
00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:31,720
but with this you send them
flowers for a month at that cost

580
00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:33,800
and hence people like it so much

581
00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:36,200
since it goes on six months.

582
00:30:36,320 --> 00:30:39,160
- You sell one box for Rs. 350.
- Yes.

583
00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:42,560
But you're gifting
the subscription, not the box.

584
00:30:42,680 --> 00:30:46,440
Yes. - Neeta, can you get it
on your way back? Thank you.

585
00:30:49,080 --> 00:30:51,360
You asked us what
our revenue is.

586
00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:55,080
Our margin for subscription
is low at 20 percent.

587
00:30:55,200 --> 00:30:58,360
We have a bigger margin
in bouquets. 40 percent.

588
00:30:58,720 --> 00:31:01,200
Revenue is split 50-50 percent
between us both.

589
00:31:01,520 --> 00:31:04,800
So the idea is simple.
When people get a subscription

590
00:31:04,920 --> 00:31:07,240
they know what flowers are like
at 'Shades of Spring'.

591
00:31:07,360 --> 00:31:10,480
During a gifting need in future
they'll come to us.

592
00:31:10,600 --> 00:31:13,720
It's really attractive
for Rs. 350.

593
00:31:13,840 --> 00:31:17,200
Because such fresh flowers
at that cost

594
00:31:17,440 --> 00:31:19,200
is hard to find.

595
00:31:19,320 --> 00:31:22,680
So I understand how this gets
50 percent revenue for you.

596
00:31:23,040 --> 00:31:26,080
But those consumers who are into

597
00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:30,000
such specific things are niche.

598
00:31:30,120 --> 00:31:32,160
It's a tiny market in India.

599
00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:35,920
Mostly rich people have
fresh flowers at home.

600
00:31:36,040 --> 00:31:38,920
Unfortunately most people
have plants at home

601
00:31:39,040 --> 00:31:41,760
or have artificial
flower decoration.

602
00:31:41,880 --> 00:31:44,360
I think it's a small market.

603
00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:47,360
Another problem
with subscription is

604
00:31:47,480 --> 00:31:50,440
very less such businesses
could be scaled in India.

605
00:31:50,560 --> 00:31:52,800
Right now you're doing it
in Bangalore

606
00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:55,320
after cracking this price point

607
00:31:55,440 --> 00:31:58,360
and Bangalore has most
early adopters

608
00:31:58,480 --> 00:32:01,600
who can go for tech subscription
currently.

609
00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:06,040
But I doubt this business can
go beyond 15 to 20 crores.

610
00:32:06,160 --> 00:32:09,560
Ashneer.

611
00:32:10,760 --> 00:32:13,160
- Thank you so much.
- So, the situation is

612
00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:14,720
three Sharks are out.
Two are left.

613
00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:17,120
- What would you like to do?
- Same reason..

614
00:32:17,160 --> 00:32:20,720
A valuation of Rs. 300 crores
is extremely high

615
00:32:20,760 --> 00:32:24,120
for this business. So, I'm out.
But all the very best.

616
00:32:24,160 --> 00:32:27,000
Thank you. - I think,
you're doing too many things.

617
00:32:27,040 --> 00:32:29,800
What hasn't been proved in such
a small business in India

618
00:32:29,840 --> 00:32:31,800
sometimes, you've to do
vertical integration.

619
00:32:31,840 --> 00:32:35,120
But from supply, importing

620
00:32:35,160 --> 00:32:37,480
B2B, B2C..
You're doing everything.

621
00:32:37,720 --> 00:32:41,840
I think it is complicated with
a not clear growth strategy.

622
00:32:41,880 --> 00:32:44,760
As you two met on shaadi.com,
I'm saying it nicely

623
00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:48,040
even I've to be out of it.
I wish you all the best.

624
00:32:48,080 --> 00:32:49,440
And I hope you prove us wrong.

625
00:32:49,480 --> 00:32:51,200
But today,
you don't have an offer.

626
00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:54,600
Thank you. - Thank you, Sharks.
All the best. - Best of luck.

627
00:32:54,640 --> 00:32:56,760
- All the best.
- Wish you luck.

628
00:32:57,520 --> 00:33:01,160
Come on! Valuation of
Rs. 300 crores. - 300 crores!

629
00:33:03,360 --> 00:33:04,800
- That looks nice.
- Nice.

630
00:33:04,840 --> 00:33:07,880
Wow! I got to see
something different. - Yes.

631
00:33:25,480 --> 00:33:27,360
Greetings, Sharks.
My name is Mayank Pareek.

632
00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:30,200
I'm 30 years old
and I'm from Bangalore.

633
00:33:30,240 --> 00:33:34,200
Birthdays hold a special
importance in our lives.

634
00:33:34,360 --> 00:33:36,960
My 24th birthday was going
to be very special..

635
00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:40,760
The plan was set to go to
Singapore with the MBA batch.

636
00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:42,960
Nanyang University..
Immersion programme

637
00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:45,120
Birthday celebrations..
I was extremely excited.

638
00:33:45,280 --> 00:33:47,360
But unfortunately,
something happened

639
00:33:47,400 --> 00:33:49,360
where I'd to drop out
from my college.

640
00:33:49,800 --> 00:33:51,360
My education loan
was not approved.

641
00:33:51,560 --> 00:33:55,000
My family
wasn't financially sound

642
00:33:55,040 --> 00:33:57,800
so that to mortage property
or an asset.

643
00:33:57,840 --> 00:33:59,720
For this, my loan
was not approved.

644
00:33:59,760 --> 00:34:03,120
I think, there are so many
people like me in our country.

645
00:34:03,160 --> 00:34:05,800
The sole reason
was financial crunch.

646
00:34:05,920 --> 00:34:08,240
When I started to search,
I came to know

647
00:34:08,280 --> 00:34:11,760
that is a gap between students
who need help

648
00:34:11,800 --> 00:34:14,760
and scholarships which
are available in our country.

649
00:34:14,800 --> 00:34:16,880
So, there had to be a solution.

650
00:34:16,920 --> 00:34:20,360
As we know, CSR is booming
in our country.

651
00:34:20,360 --> 00:34:23,160
In the last five years,
it has touched one lakh crore.

652
00:34:23,200 --> 00:34:26,640
I saw an opportunity
and decided to bridge it.

653
00:34:26,680 --> 00:34:29,680
And that is when, I
launched my product 'Scholify'.

654
00:34:30,400 --> 00:34:32,240
Scholify is an online platform

655
00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:36,520
through which we match students
with available scholarships.

656
00:34:36,560 --> 00:34:37,960
That too, in only three steps.

657
00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:41,120
I saw a gap where
there isn't any awareness

658
00:34:41,160 --> 00:34:44,440
the process is difficult
for children how to apply.

659
00:34:44,480 --> 00:34:47,160
So, I decided to do this
through my app.

660
00:34:47,200 --> 00:34:49,360
Just with one click

661
00:34:49,360 --> 00:34:51,480
they can apply for any
of their favourite scholarships.

662
00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:52,640
So basically

663
00:34:52,680 --> 00:34:57,120
neither one has to fill
long forms nor to upload.

664
00:34:57,160 --> 00:34:59,000
Scholarship will be
at the tip of their fingers.

665
00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:01,720
Last year, on our platform

666
00:35:01,760 --> 00:35:05,080
we registered around
7.5 lakhs users.

667
00:35:05,120 --> 00:35:07,040
Our mission is that,
with Scholify

668
00:35:07,080 --> 00:35:09,480
with an impact
and social enterprise

669
00:35:09,520 --> 00:35:12,360
we dream of becoming
India's unicorn company.

670
00:35:12,400 --> 00:35:14,520
So, Sharks,
for my company's growth

671
00:35:14,560 --> 00:35:19,120
I'm asking for Rs. 50 lakhs
against 7.5 percent Equity.

672
00:35:21,200 --> 00:35:23,680
- Something is bothering me.
- Okay.

673
00:35:24,080 --> 00:35:26,640
You said, you want to
be the unicorn, right? - Yes.

674
00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:30,160
This is a fad. Do you know what
is fad? - I understand. Yes.

675
00:35:30,680 --> 00:35:33,880
- Stop racing for the unicorn.
- Okay.

676
00:35:33,920 --> 00:35:37,880
We aren't unicorns. We might be
one by God's grace. - Yes.

677
00:35:37,920 --> 00:35:41,520
- But we don't start for that.
- The purpose to start

678
00:35:41,560 --> 00:35:43,920
- is to solve the problem.
- You said, you want to be

679
00:35:43,960 --> 00:35:46,800
- the first unicorn in this space.
- As an aspiration.

680
00:35:46,840 --> 00:35:50,440
But don't keep the valuation
as your aspiration. - Sure.

681
00:35:50,480 --> 00:35:53,080
Building value will attract
valuation, okay?

682
00:35:53,120 --> 00:35:54,320
Absolutely. Absolutely.

683
00:35:54,360 --> 00:35:56,760
- Are you into business..
- Yes.

684
00:35:56,800 --> 00:35:59,880
- Or into CSR?
- Purely into business.

685
00:35:59,920 --> 00:36:02,280
- It is a profit based company.
- If I'm a student

686
00:36:02,320 --> 00:36:05,360
and want to apply
for a scholarship. If I'm a CSR

687
00:36:05,360 --> 00:36:08,520
I'll pay money for helping
consumers, right? - Yes.

688
00:36:08,560 --> 00:36:11,000
What is your revenue model?
How do you earn money?

689
00:36:11,040 --> 00:36:13,800
Both are separate verticals.
The license we offer

690
00:36:13,840 --> 00:36:15,800
to corporates
for the implementation of CSR

691
00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:17,240
for that,
we charge a license fee.

692
00:36:17,280 --> 00:36:19,720
We've also introduced
a subscription model

693
00:36:19,760 --> 00:36:22,840
for our students which
has been economically priced.

694
00:36:22,880 --> 00:36:25,040
The important feature is that

695
00:36:25,080 --> 00:36:27,960
every quarter, we conduct
scholarship test.

696
00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:31,320
This is available
for paid users.

697
00:36:31,360 --> 00:36:33,640
Let's say, this is 75 percent
of the revenue system.

698
00:36:33,680 --> 00:36:38,040
25 percent.. - Is 75 percent
B2C or.. - B2C. Yes.

699
00:36:38,080 --> 00:36:41,920
- What is the revenue?
- Till now, we're pre-revenue.

700
00:36:41,960 --> 00:36:43,880
Now, your revenue is zero.

701
00:36:44,360 --> 00:36:46,560
How many scholarships
are being given in our system?

702
00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:50,240
Around 2200 children
have got scholarships last year.

703
00:36:51,120 --> 00:36:53,760
What is the value of the
scholarship? - 4 to 5 crores.

704
00:36:53,800 --> 00:36:57,080
- How much did you earn out of it?
- Nothing.

705
00:36:57,480 --> 00:36:59,120
Very nice.

706
00:37:00,040 --> 00:37:04,080
Instead of taking SaaS
from corporate

707
00:37:04,200 --> 00:37:08,960
can't you take 10 percent
commission on scholarship?

708
00:37:09,360 --> 00:37:10,840
We did a small campaign

709
00:37:10,880 --> 00:37:14,120
due to which, in one week
without any marketing

710
00:37:14,160 --> 00:37:17,560
organically we got
around 200 users

711
00:37:17,600 --> 00:37:19,520
who bought the plan
without seeing anything.

712
00:37:19,560 --> 00:37:20,760
That was a proof of concept

713
00:37:20,800 --> 00:37:23,080
that if our price is less,
we are adding value

714
00:37:23,120 --> 00:37:24,600
and giving add-ons with it

715
00:37:24,640 --> 00:37:26,640
so it becomes a worthwhile
deal for students.

716
00:37:26,680 --> 00:37:28,840
Are you only doing
scholarships of India

717
00:37:28,880 --> 00:37:30,000
or are you doing it globally?

718
00:37:30,040 --> 00:37:31,200
No, we are focused on India.

719
00:37:31,240 --> 00:37:34,920
What is the value of total
scholarships in India today?

720
00:37:34,960 --> 00:37:39,320
Last year around 2667 crores
scholarships were dispersed.

721
00:37:39,400 --> 00:37:42,400
In that,
the marker place maker

722
00:37:42,440 --> 00:37:44,040
the one playing in the middle

723
00:37:44,080 --> 00:37:45,480
since this is the work of CSR

724
00:37:45,520 --> 00:37:47,040
I don't think you
can go to 20 percent. - No.

725
00:37:47,080 --> 00:37:48,880
- You can take 10 percent at most.
- Yes.

726
00:37:48,920 --> 00:37:52,120
The industry size will
determine your size. - Yes.

727
00:37:52,160 --> 00:37:55,120
Even if you take-up
10 percent out of it

728
00:37:55,160 --> 00:37:58,320
so you can acquire
around 400 to 500 crores.

729
00:37:58,320 --> 00:38:01,920
Is the industry so big that
you can make a Unicorn?

730
00:38:01,960 --> 00:38:06,360
If not, have you thought
about student loans?

731
00:38:07,080 --> 00:38:10,120
No.
Personally, I'm against it.

732
00:38:10,160 --> 00:38:12,080
If I offer student loans

733
00:38:12,120 --> 00:38:15,160
then it goes back
to the same things.

734
00:38:18,120 --> 00:38:20,080
This is people who
don't have properties

735
00:38:20,120 --> 00:38:21,080
who can't pay loans..

736
00:38:21,120 --> 00:38:25,320
But I don't understand
as Mr. Ashneer said.

737
00:38:25,320 --> 00:38:26,720
- To be honest.
- Okay.

738
00:38:27,240 --> 00:38:29,240
What's the problem with taking
a loan? I took a loan too.

739
00:38:29,280 --> 00:38:31,160
I did my MBA with a loan.

740
00:38:31,200 --> 00:38:33,160
They held my degree as mortgage

741
00:38:33,200 --> 00:38:35,560
until I pay the loan,
they won't give me my degree.

742
00:38:35,600 --> 00:38:36,920
It took me five to six years.

743
00:38:36,960 --> 00:38:39,600
I earned from my job
and repaid the loan.

744
00:38:39,640 --> 00:38:41,080
Why are you against it?

745
00:38:43,440 --> 00:38:46,400
It has a market. I'm saying
that there's a market for this.

746
00:38:46,440 --> 00:38:49,320
I went on an exchange
programme to France.

747
00:38:49,360 --> 00:38:51,720
I got a scholarship
from French embassy.

748
00:38:51,760 --> 00:38:53,000
It was luck.

749
00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:56,440
There's a market, but you are
thinking about it as a business.

750
00:38:57,360 --> 00:39:00,160
The best scholarship
scheme in India

751
00:39:00,200 --> 00:39:03,200
was run by a restaurant.
That is Nirula's.

752
00:39:03,480 --> 00:39:05,120
When we were young

753
00:39:05,160 --> 00:39:07,640
if you score more
than 90 percent

754
00:39:07,680 --> 00:39:10,000
take your report
card to Nirula's

755
00:39:10,040 --> 00:39:11,520
you would get a chocolate fudge

756
00:39:11,560 --> 00:39:14,040
and you would get a stamp
on your report card

757
00:39:14,080 --> 00:39:15,080
by Nirula's.

758
00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:17,400
- They were acquiring customers.
- Yes.

759
00:39:17,440 --> 00:39:18,320
What are you doing?

760
00:39:18,360 --> 00:39:21,200
You're saying you want to give
scholarships to several people.

761
00:39:21,240 --> 00:39:22,120
Yes.

762
00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:25,160
And there are plenty of kids who
should get scholarships. - Yes.

763
00:39:25,200 --> 00:39:26,520
So you're making a platform

764
00:39:26,560 --> 00:39:28,360
- that's a good idea.
- Yes.

765
00:39:28,400 --> 00:39:30,720
Nobody has pitched
this idea to me yet.

766
00:39:30,760 --> 00:39:33,040
But you can't make
a big company with this.

767
00:39:33,080 --> 00:39:34,960
You are acting like
a payment gateway.

768
00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:36,720
You're saying the one
who gets the scholarship

769
00:39:36,760 --> 00:39:38,120
they should pay the fees.

770
00:39:39,560 --> 00:39:41,200
You must change the model.

771
00:39:41,240 --> 00:39:45,600
First, he said that one
who gives the scholarship

772
00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:47,280
take commission from them.

773
00:39:47,920 --> 00:39:51,000
Secondly, think about the ones
who are not getting scholarships

774
00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:54,160
how will they benefit
from your platform.

775
00:39:54,200 --> 00:39:56,160
Do they get any
benefit from it now?

776
00:39:57,080 --> 00:40:01,120
7.5 lakh students have filled
their details on your platform

777
00:40:01,160 --> 00:40:02,360
you've acquired them

778
00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:04,800
you have to think
about monetizing that.

779
00:40:04,840 --> 00:40:06,880
That's the simple
point he's telling you.

780
00:40:09,600 --> 00:40:13,040
What is your tech team?
Are you the only one?

781
00:40:13,360 --> 00:40:15,640
I began about
three and a half years ago.

782
00:40:15,920 --> 00:40:18,240
I had a friend who'd be
the cofounder

783
00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:20,040
we had some differences..

784
00:40:20,200 --> 00:40:22,600
We were at a Company
at Gurugram

785
00:40:22,760 --> 00:40:25,120
and we were about to get
the deal

786
00:40:25,320 --> 00:40:27,680
and we were showing them
the demo and it did not work

787
00:40:27,840 --> 00:40:29,720
we went the next day
and the same happened.

788
00:40:29,840 --> 00:40:33,840
It did not work and co-founder
did not respond.

789
00:40:35,360 --> 00:40:38,840
So there was trouble,
I do not know coding.

790
00:40:39,040 --> 00:40:42,040
It took some time to build trust
and get someone on board.

791
00:40:42,240 --> 00:40:45,280
Eventually I was called at
a college in Gandhinagar

792
00:40:45,440 --> 00:40:47,160
for an event as a panellist.

793
00:40:47,280 --> 00:40:50,600
I met few kids and I hired
three interns from there.

794
00:40:50,760 --> 00:40:53,960
And with them we made
the code

795
00:40:54,080 --> 00:40:55,640
and we built the product
from scratch.

796
00:40:55,640 --> 00:40:58,280
Dad still asks me what became
of this app of mine.

797
00:40:58,400 --> 00:41:01,800
I said I am working on it
and he is not impressed.

798
00:41:02,240 --> 00:41:05,520
He is worried to have me married
as a typical Marwari family..

799
00:41:05,640 --> 00:41:08,560
I'll be blunt now
and give it to you.

800
00:41:08,760 --> 00:41:10,720
This is a real problem but
you cannot crack it.

801
00:41:14,440 --> 00:41:15,800
There is one simple reason.

802
00:41:15,920 --> 00:41:17,000
Tell me something.

803
00:41:17,600 --> 00:41:19,640
You said you can get scholarship
from Corporates.

804
00:41:19,800 --> 00:41:21,160
That goes to the students.

805
00:41:21,600 --> 00:41:24,440
Had it been so simple
and easy for the system

806
00:41:24,720 --> 00:41:26,280
then you could have
a scholarship

807
00:41:26,320 --> 00:41:29,240
to get you someone
to do your coding.

808
00:41:30,960 --> 00:41:35,000
First you must solve
your own problem.

809
00:41:36,320 --> 00:41:38,320
I think you must get
a job first.

810
00:41:38,960 --> 00:41:40,920
You need to understand
what business is..

811
00:41:44,520 --> 00:41:47,640
You want to be a unicorn?
You cannot do it.

812
00:41:47,960 --> 00:41:49,960
Quit, and stop wasting
your time.

813
00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:52,640
Let me tell you that
this screen..

814
00:41:52,640 --> 00:41:54,360
It was the highlight
before you came in.

815
00:41:56,000 --> 00:41:57,360
And then all went downhill.

816
00:42:00,080 --> 00:42:03,720
I am out of this for now.

817
00:42:05,680 --> 00:42:07,560
I could not understand
your business model.

818
00:42:08,080 --> 00:42:11,760
I cannot determine
your market size.

819
00:42:11,800 --> 00:42:12,960
And how will you earn from it?

820
00:42:14,640 --> 00:42:19,120
- I am sorry, I am out.
- Sorry to hear that.

821
00:42:19,400 --> 00:42:21,600
- I wish you all the best.
- Thank you.

822
00:42:22,200 --> 00:42:26,880
You need a lot of work.
I am out.

823
00:42:28,240 --> 00:42:31,440
Mayank, 'Scholify' is
a good name.

824
00:42:31,600 --> 00:42:35,440
Get it trademarked. I did not
understand the model.

825
00:42:35,920 --> 00:42:38,480
You seemed confused
and I am out.

826
00:42:38,480 --> 00:42:41,360
All the best for your business.

827
00:42:41,520 --> 00:42:42,400
Thank you.

828
00:42:43,280 --> 00:42:46,440
Mayank, I love
your resilience.

829
00:42:46,640 --> 00:42:47,920
And I am very inspired.

830
00:42:48,960 --> 00:42:52,880
I think nothing is more crucial
than being an entrepreneur.

831
00:42:53,520 --> 00:42:57,280
I hope you get some revenue
and then come for fund raising.

832
00:42:57,760 --> 00:42:58,840
Absolutely.
Thank you.

833
00:42:59,120 --> 00:43:02,040
- Thank you. - Best of luck.
- Thank you.

834
00:43:02,160 --> 00:43:03,320
- Thank you.
- Good luck.

835
00:43:41,840 --> 00:43:43,080
Ashneer.

836
00:43:43,800 --> 00:43:47,840
Can you please sugar-coat it?

837
00:43:47,880 --> 00:43:50,120
I wanted to say the same
but you said it.

838
00:43:50,120 --> 00:43:53,200
That he cannot do it?

839
00:43:53,360 --> 00:43:56,440
A question, if we have choice

840
00:43:56,760 --> 00:44:00,160
we can they cannot scale it.

841
00:44:00,280 --> 00:44:03,920
But he can do
a small business.

842
00:44:04,040 --> 00:44:07,080
- Directly being harsh is wrong.
- Did you see his goal?

843
00:44:07,200 --> 00:44:08,880
Do you see his goal?

844
00:44:08,920 --> 00:44:11,920
Sometimes you are nice to people
by not being nice to them.

845
00:44:12,240 --> 00:44:15,720
Today I have scolded him

846
00:44:15,880 --> 00:44:18,360
and I did the best for him.

847
00:44:18,480 --> 00:44:23,200
You could be gentle. - We hope
he proves Ashneer wrong.

848
00:44:23,360 --> 00:44:26,680
- Even he hopes that.
- Yes.

849
00:44:26,840 --> 00:44:30,560
- But there was no business.
- Yes. there was none.

850
00:44:30,720 --> 00:44:32,280
It cannot grow much.
