Anupam Mittal on visiting dating websites
Anupam Mittal is the founder and CEO of People's Group and Shaadi.com. When asked if he goes through his website and checks out profiles that are registered for wedding prospects, Mittal said, "I go on dating sites and when my wife asks about the same, I tell her that I'm researching the market. It's a very legitimate excuse for me to be on a dating site."
On being asked if he has misused the legitimate excuse, he quipped, "Have you met my wife? She would take my case. I don't put my profile anywhere, don't research nor do I check out profiles."

Vineeta Singh roasts Anupam Mittal
Sugar Cosmetic's CEO and co-founder Vineeta Singh is known for her sharp observation skills. She loves to playfully tease her friends on the show. When discussing Anupam Mittal, Vineeta Singh revealed an interesting fact about him. Just like her, this is his third season on the show, and he has a tendency to get fixated on certain alphabets. Throughout each season, he keeps using words that start with those alphabets. It's a quirky habit that adds a fun twist to the show.
Vineeta quipped, "In season one, he was stuck with the alphabet 'J' and would say words starting from the same like Josh, Jazba and Junoon. In the second season, he was stuck with the alphabet 'M' and would say things like ' Aap ke paas Maqsad hai, Muqaddar hai Kyuki aapke saath Mittal judne wala hai."
She mentioned that Anupam Mittal made a big jump from struggling with certain words in the first two seasons to uttering strange words like Totke and Tigdam in the third season. She even dared Mittal to come up with words starting from 'X' in the upcoming season of Shark Tank India.
Anupam Mittal shares his thoughts on the interim budget
Anupam Mittal shared his opinion on the interim budget and said, “I think other takeaways besides the 1 crore, firstly, it was on account budget, so you cannot expect too much out of it because it’s a midterm budget. But one thing is clear: our nominal growth rate in India is fast inching towards 10 percent, and when we grow 10-12 % every year…nominal is what matters; real doesn’t matter, it does, but for average, nominal is what matters,” shared the Shark.
Vineeta Singh thought that the interim budget didn't give enough attention to start-ups. She expressed her hope that the complete budget would prioritize them.
