Lenskart co-founder Peyush Bansal, who is one of the investors on Shark Tank India, opened up about appearing on The Kapil Sharma Show with his fellow ‘sharks’.

Along with Bansal, the other sharks in the Indian version of the entrepreneurship-based show were Vineeta Singh of Sugar, Anupam Mittal of Shaadi.com, Namita Thapar of Emcure, Aman Gupta of boAt, Ashneer Grover of BharatPe, and Ghazal Alagh of Mamaearth.

The judges recently appeared on The Kapil Sharma Show last month. Bansal spoke about his experience on the show with comedian Rohan Joshi during a live-stream on the latter’s YouTube channel.

“He’s hilarious. My jaws, they were hurting. It was so cold on set. And on top of that, Kapil kept making us laugh. Beyond a point, I couldn’t resist, I was tired. He made us laugh for three hours, three hours non-stop.. And I wasn’t… Usually, I had started feeling Kapil Sharma is not that funny anymore, but it was hilarious,” the 36-year-old said. 

Season one of Shark Tank India, in which entrepreneurs make business presentations to a panel of ‘sharks’ to get them to invest in their company, amassed a huge following throughout its run. The reality television series is based on the critically acclaimed and multi-Emmy Award-winning American show ‘Shark Tank’, which has run through 13 seasons so far.

In an earlier interaction with comedian Abish Matthew, host of the special episode titled ‘Gateway to The Shark Tank’, Peyush had quashed rumours about the show being scripted. “The reality is that we are not even allowed to watch the presentations (of the pitchers) or behind the stage, we are shielded so we don’t get even the slightest glimpse about who is about to come, neither do we have any documents. We arrive there, the presenter comes, and a minute or two before the presenter comes, we get to see the demo unit or presentation they bring along, and we need to take a call. And it is as real as it can get,” he had said, according to a Hindustan Times report.
