Ashneer Grover Slams The Makers Of Shark Tank India; Says Bigg Boss Is For ‘Failures & Not Successful People’

Ashneer
Grover
became
a
household
name
after
he
appeared
as
one
of
the
sharks
(judges
and
investors)
on

Shark
Tank
India’s
first
season
last
year.
However,
the
former
BharatPe
co-founder
has
been
dropped
from
the
second
season
of
the
show
and
has
been
replaced
by
CarDekho
co-founder
Amit
Jain.

While
the
makers
of
the
show
have
refused
to
share
the
reason
behind
Ashneer’s
exit,
the
former
judge
has
finally
broken
his
silence
on
the
matter
during
an
interaction
with
RedFM.
Grover
admitted
that
the
reason
behind
not
being
on
the
reality
show
wasn’t
related
to
monetary
issues
but
rather
status
issues.
He
was
quoted
as
saying,
“Afford
sirf
paise
se
nahi
hota,
aukaat
se
hota
hai.”

The
entrepreneur
also
opened
up
about
being
approached
for

Bigg
Boss.
However,
he
refuted
the
speculations
about
being
in
talks
with
the
makers
of
the
Salman
Khan
show.
Ashneer
even
took
a
dig
at
the
celebrities
participating
in
the
show
and
said,
“You
will
never
see
me
on
that
show.
Failed
individuals
go
on
that
show,
not
successful
people…
There
was
a
time
when
I
used
to
watch
the
show,
but
I
feel
it’s
become
stale
now.
They
approached
me,
I
said
sorry,
not
happening.”

He
then
went
on
to
add
that
he
would
only
do
the
controversial
reality
show
if
the
makers
paid
him
more
than
the
host,
Salman
Khan.
Well,
even
though
he
won’t
be
seen
on-screen
for
the
time
being,
Grover
recently
announced
his
first
book,
Doglapan
and
it
has
generated
a
lot
of
buzz
on
social
media.
