With an impressive Rs 293 crore invested across four seasons, Shark Tank India, the business reality show, is back to fuel more entrepreneurial dreams. The much-anticipated fifth season has officially been announced, and a fresh promo has stirred intrigue—not only about the show’s return but also about the possibility of new investors stepping into the tank. The teaser emphasizes “More fire. More founders. More deals,” leading many to wonder if the original Sharks are being replaced.
New Promo Teases Entry of Fresh Faces
The latest teaser, unveiled by Sony LIV, marks the official start of Season 5’s promotional campaign. Captioned “Turning 5 never looked this fierce! More fire. More founders. More deals,” the clip blends real footage of past pitches with a dramatized sequence where people stuck in uninspiring jobs dream of doing more. The highlight of the promo is a segment featuring Peyush Bansal, who encourages aspiring entrepreneurs to identify major problems, build strong solutions, and step onto the Shark Tank India stage.
More notably, the promo emphasizes “more founders” joining the show. This phrase has sparked speculation that the original Sharks may not all return, and new investors could take their seats.
Satirical June Promo
Before the latest announcement, a June teaser had already stirred public interest. That promo, infused with satire, mocked billionaire N.R. Narayana Murthy’s contentious advocacy for a 70-hour work week. It featured fictional CEOs lamenting over the “crisis” of employees leaving to start their own businesses—one even complains about losing someone to carry his golf bag.
A sarcastic narrator warns viewers not to quit their jobs or register for Shark Tank, cheekily encouraging them to do exactly that. The satirical tone struck a chord online, leading to viral reactions.
Will OG Sharks Return or Be Replaced?
While Sony has not officially confirmed any departures, fans are questioning whether long-time Sharks like Aman Gupta, Namita Thapar, Anupam Mittal, Peyush Bansal, and Vineeta Singh will return. Over the seasons, guest Sharks such as Ashneer Grover, Amit Jain, Ghazal Alagh, Deepinder Goyal, Radhika Gupta, Kunal Bahl, Viraj Bahl, and Ritesh Agarwal have made appearances, creating a flexible judging format.
With the new promo stressing "more founders," Season 5 may follow a similar model—retaining a core group while introducing fresh business leaders. However, no names of new entrants have been officially revealed.
Since its debut on December 20, 2021, Shark Tank India has served as a major platform for budding start-ups across the country. The show has completed four seasons, with Season 4 airing from January to March 2025. According to details from the latest teaser, investors on the show have collectively invested over Rs 293 crore into start-ups from Season 1 through Season 4.
