Ashneer Grover, the co-founder and former managing director of BharatPe, rose to immense stardom with his role in the first season of Shark Tank India. As one of the judges and investors, his logical roasting of the pitchers was not just a hit but a source of entertainment for the show's viewers. However, his fallout with BharatPe led to his exclusion from the next season.
But as life had its way with a few twists and turns of events, Ashneer jumped back to business and launched CricPay and ZeroPe under his new company, Third Unicorn. Ashneer has been very vocal about his life choices and doesnt shy away from calling a spade a spade. Recently, a video of him has been making rounds on the internet where he is critiquing middle-class mentality, and surprisingly, he is not getting trolled for the same.

Ashneer Grover appeared on Ishan Sharma's podcast a few months back, where he shared that people love to judge others in India.
