Listening to the idea and the product description, Shark Ashneer Grover commented, “Mazak hai kya. Aap kya bahut zyada peete ho kya. Matlab ye idea bhi aapke dimaag mein aaya kaise ki main glass ko mask pehnaunga (Is this a joke? Do you drink a lot? How did this idea even come to your mind that you would make glass wear a mask?).”
He further added, “Ye jo product hai na matlab, iss se wahiyat product maine zindagi mein na dekha hai na mai dekhna chahta hu, mere ko bhagwan utha le, itna ganda product hai yeh. Iske baad main kuch nahi dekhna chahte life mein (I have never seen such a terrible product in my life, and I don't want to see something like this ever again. It's so bad that I wish God would take me away. After this, I don't want to see anything else in my life)”
2. Belly button shaper
Shark Tank India Season 1 featured pitchers Baldev Jumnani and Jayashree Jumnani, who arrived on the stage to pitch their idea of a ‘Belly button shaper.’ They explained that their product helped individuals achieve a ‘Gol Nabhi’ and a deep navel without any medicines or surgeries. As they elaborated about their product, the Sharks could not control their laughter.
3. ‘Sayonara’ on Shark Tank India 2
Intended for women who wear sarees, pitcher Sahill Shaha appeared before Sharks, asking for an investment in his brand called Sayonara, which manufactured petticoats. He claimed to be making an innovative and revolutionary product to help women deal with the issues associated with petticoats.
Shark Aman Gupta told the pitcher, “Kuch aur socho (Think something else). This is not a business. Kuch aur karna chahiye. Ye please aaj ke baad iske business ke baare mein mat sochna (Something else should be done. Please don't think about this business after today).” Later, Shark Peyush Bansal asked Sahill to change the logo, and Anupam Mittal mentioned it as a non-investable business.
4. Night Agarbatti
In the second season of Shark Tank India, Sharks and the audience saw a pitcher who appeared to ask for an investment in his night incense stick company.

Shortly after, Shark Anupam Mittal inquired about the inspiration behind the incense sticks. Meanwhile, Shark Aman Gupta asked if the product had been tested. The entrepreneur confirmed that it had. Unfortunately, Amit Hotchandani did not secure a deal during the show.
5. 2Ballz men’s innerwear
With their vision to combat rashes and itching, the pitchers representing the company 2Ballz appeared in the current season of Shark Tank India.
