'Why Mock The Accent?': Fans Say 'Amore' Pitch On Shark Tank India Was Uncomfortable To Watch
While the sharks (judges) are trying to delve deeper into the emotional angle of the pitchers' lives, there are a few times when some jokes are not landing well with the fans of Shark Tank India.
Shark Tank India, in its first season, ignited India¡¯s business growth engine. The show has been designed to transform how the country views entrepreneurship. It will once more give aspiring entrepreneurs a platform to pursue their entrepreneurial dreams by pitching their ideas to seasoned investors and business professionals.
The show is based on the popular concept of the show of the same name ¨C Shark Tank USA. It launched its first season in December 2021.
However, Shark Tank India 2 is failing to live up to the expectations of fans in India. While the first season opened to a thunderous response, the second season is still trying to catch up. A recent episode of Shark Tank India left fans shocked for more than one reason.
While the sharks (judges) are trying to delve deeper into the emotional angle of the pitchers' lives, there are a few times when some jokes are not landing well with the fans of Shark Tank India.
One such incident happened when Amore Gelato and Sorbetto presented their pitch.
According to a Reddit discussion thread, the way the sharks behaved with the team of Amore wasn't "appropriate."
Someone posted, "Did anyone else get uncomfortable during the Amore pitch?" Like how every shark changed their accent to a stereotypical Italian accent? The way Aman talked to the chef? The way Anupam pushed his way behind the display and took charge of giving the ice cream to others? And generally, the whole way they acted? What are your thoughts?"
Reacting to the post, many fans shared that they found it appalling that the judges were trying to mock the Italian accent of Amore's chef.
Well, that's not all. Someone even pointed out that the Amore is a copy of the US brand Talenti.
Reacting to the same, Shark Tank India Fans wrote,
Sharks from season 1 ¨C Aman Gupta, Anupam Mittal, Vineeta Singh, Namita Thapar, and Peyush Bansal have returned for the second season. The new shark on the panel is Amit Jain. Amit Jain is the CEO and Co-founder of CarDekho Group.
