On a recent episode of Shark Tank India, the founders of Uncle Peter’s Pancakes showcased their flourishing pancake business. Seeking Rs 60 lakhs for two percent equity, they impressed the sharks with their Rs 5 crore sales in 2023.
Anupam Mittal and Namita Thapar offered Rs 60 lakhs for four percent equity each. Aman Gupta humorously bowed out, suggesting they sell paranthas instead: "Paranthe becho lo!" Eventually, the founders struck a deal with the trio for Rs 60 lakhs for three percent equity and three percent royalty.
Anupam’s witty remark, "aapki Aman ke baap Anupam se deal hui hai," added a comedic touch to the negotiation.
