She said, “What was depicted on the show appeared pleasant, but the reality was far more challenging. I felt a sense of frustration as Vineeta reiterated the same points repeatedly, particularly criticizing my packaging. However, I was not allowed to voice my perspective.

As a bootstrapped entrepreneur seeking assistance, I expected a collaborative dialogue. If I had everything sorted out already, I wouldn't have sought their guidance." “It was very difficult for me to control myself from crying at one point. I just wanted to run away from Shark Tank.

I didn't want to cry on national television. Vineeta kept asking me what the differentiator in my products is," she noted in the podcast. She continued by revealing that her sales surged from ₹45 lakh in January of this year to nearly ₹1 crore following the airing of the episode.
