Showcasing another season full of remarkable inventions and insightful expert advice, Hashim D’souza – Head of Programming, English Entertainment, Viacom18, said, “SHARK TANK is the most revered business-entertainment reality show on television not only in the US but also internationally. With India’s expansive start-up culture and deep-rooted business mindset, SHARK TANK has become one of the most-watched shows on the channel, since the season 1 premiere on COLORS INFINITY. But the sterling performance and appeal of SHARK TANK doesn’t stop there, with the show finding a fanbase across age groups and milieu with its unique approach to reality television. Through this show, the channel goes beyond its staple English Entertainment audience by entertaining, educating and motivating while staying real and relevant. A crash course in the ‘Perfect Pitch’, Season 9 of SHARK TANK will be a class of Business:101, that further ups the ante for reality-entertainment shows on Indian television.”
