Prateek told judges by explaining the vision of their brand, “Humein jitni marketing mile utna kam hai. The more we market the sooner our product scales. We are self-taught, and we don’t have any mentor to guide us so we would want to learn from you all and understand your secret sauce to success. We had decided that till we don’t cross Rs 1cr revenue per month, we won’t bring in any external party. So, after doing the gross, this is the first time we are talking to any investor formally for funding." Amit Jain and Aman Gupta taunted each other after the sharks all saw the products and were impressed.

Following the offers made to the pitchers by Anupam Mitta and Namita Thapar, Amit Jain questioned the pitchers. However, Aman Gupta cut him short, stating, “There is no need for technology here". Amit responded to Aman in such as well, “Jisko samajh mein nahi aati technology woh aise hi bolte hai." When Aman further said, “I have a good tech brand bros", Amit taunted him saying, “We wonder how apni boat pe break lagao."
