Popular faces from MTV Roadies, Raghu Ram and Rajiv Laxman, are now back with a new reality show on MTV, which will serve as a platform for young entrepreneurs. MTV is introducing India’s first start-up reality show to mentor Indian startup entrepreneurs and taking their journey forward. The show is titled, Dropout and is scheduled to air in the upcoming months. The show will be hosted by the twin brothers.
The show is inspired by SharkTank, the famous American reality television series that was first premiered on August 9, 2009, on ABC. The registration process for aspiring entrepreneur-contestants are now open, and they are welcome to make their business pitches to a panel of Dropout investors’ team, who will then judge whether or not to invest in the idea.
Three business personalities have joined the show as panelists. Sandeep Aggarwal, founder, Shopclues & Droom, who claims to have dropped out from Wall Street and took the decision to drive his own ambition and became an e-commerce giant owner in India. Aggarwal’s networth as an individual is $1.5billion.
The second panel member, Anisha Singh is the CEO and founder of MyDala.com. Anisha’s net worth is $150million and she says that she dropped out of the stereotypical role and benefits of being a housewife. The third and the final member on the jury is Alok Kejriwal, who gave up the opportunity to contribute to his family business but he too, opted to so otherwise. He then, went onto become the CEO and co-founder of GAMES2WIN with a net worth of $100million as an individual businessman.
