How to Watch Shark Tank India Season 2?

Shark Tank India is returning for a second round, serving as the grand stage for ambitious entrepreneurs to showcase their business ideas and fuel their dreams. The American reality series — which in itself is a regional adaptation of the original Dragons’ Den show — helped break the notion that startups were primarily reserved for students, bringing in presenters across all age groups, whose concepts were judged by a team of potential investors, termed “Sharks.” India got its own, first iteration in December last year — and while not all presenters received the hefty cheque, they certainly left with better pitching ideas and guidance for their company.

With the second chapter in close proximity, here’s everything you need to know about Shark Tank India season 2:

When does Shark Tank India season 2 begin?

Shark Tank India’s sophomore run starts tonight, January 2, at 10pm IST, with new episodes dropping on weekdays — i.e., across Monday to Friday. Currently, there’s no word on the episode count, but going by season 1’s length — 35 episodes — we can expect a runtime somewhere in the ballpark.

It goes live right after MasterChef India season 7, which also premieres tonight, an hour prior, at 9pm. The 10pm slot previously belonged to the Amitabh Bachchan-led Kaun Banega Crorepati season 14.
