Shark Tank India Launches #DontBeATota Campaign
Shark Tank India has started a new campaign called #DontBeATota.
They want people who want to start businesses to focus on real business skills, not just using fancy startup words.
The campaign features a parrot named Tota who repeats startup terms but doesn't understand them.
This shows that knowing the words isn't as important as knowing how to run a business.
Aman Gupta, one of the Sharks, said that building a company is about solving problems and being resilient, not just sounding like an entrepreneur.
They are looking for founders who understand their businesses well for Season 6 of the show.

Quotes
Aman Gupta
Shark on Shark Tank India, co-founder of boAt, and founder of Off/Beat
“If repeating startup buzzwords was enough to build a business, we would all be investing in parrots. That’s the thought behind this campaign. Over the years, Shark Tank India has helped make entrepreneurship part of mainstream conversations, and that’s something we are incredibly proud of.”

“Building a company has never been about sounding like an entrepreneur, it is about solving real problems, understanding your business inside out and showing the resilience to keep building every single day. That’s exactly the kind of founders we’re excited to meet in Season 6.”
