You will definitely create another unicorn, more power to you.
Despite all the drama that unfolded in Ashneer's life in the past six months, he appears unperturbed as he seems to have embarked on a new journey as an entrepreneur.
He has been teasing about his new venture after a brief sabbatical. Ashneer is yet to divulge what he is working on. Most aspiring entrepreneurs look up to him for his fiery attitude and business acumen.
Shark Tank India S1 created a movement in India's entrepreneurial environment.
While the Desis are patiently awaiting the following season, Ashneer's next move is also being anticipated by his fans.
According to PTI, BharatPe fired Madhuri Jain Grover, the wife of the fintech firm's co-founder and managing director Ashneer Grover, in February for alleged financial irregularities and canceled employee stock ownership plans (ESOPs) vested in her.
