Jeevika slams the Sharks
Now, she spoke to Etimes about the same and said that the Sharks come with a lot of experience of building companies and they all have seen the lows more than the highs. She said that they have to understand that Shark Tank India is not Bigg Boss or Roadies.
She shared that making bad comments on their brand is her concern as they have also made their business with a lot of love and they have also been through a lot of struggle. She said that everyone has been very rude towards them with comments.
Jeevika is disappointed with Namita and Vineeta
She said, "There are only three things that make you an entrepreneur, first is of course you should know your finance, the second is you should know your cause ki ye hum kyu shuru kar rahe hai. And third is the image and the product that you're creating. Vineeta has defeated those three things in our case. She said, we don't have a cause, our product is useless."
Jeevika said that this is a big statement she made and the creative team used a bad poster for us and it is too low. She also said that she has respected and liked Vineeta Singh but when she pulled her down it was hurtful.
She also went on to slam Namita Thapar who said that they have spent Rs 10 crores on marketing. Jeevika gave a clarification and said that they have spend only Rs 4 crores on marketing. She also said that in this season, the sharks including Namita and Vineeta have invested in her friend's company.
