Namita: yeh meri expertise nahi, mai isse bahar hu
Anupam: Arre bolne toh do
Peyush: Mai isse global leke jaunga
But love the show, never thought indian tv serial touch would have made it this enjoyable :p
The banter between the sharks is 🤍
And all these jokes aside, the sharks are getting deals at great valuations! They'll surely make a lot of money. Some of these startups might raise follow-on rounds from prominent VCs and become household names in coming years.
Cove harbour
ID: Portrait orientation watercolour painting of an old harbour. The focus is two brick cottages along a sloping path in the middle. A crow sits on one of the chimneys. There are old cement stairs going down to the water on the left, and a white ladder leaning against the bank of the harbour in the centre, with a white and blue wooden docked in front. End ID

love Elon Musk but-
It seems like a lot of non Indians are unaware of this but hey INDIA DOES NOT HAVE A NATIONAL LANGUAGE, We have 22 OFFICIAL LANGUAGES and 40 other yet to be recognized regional languages.
Next time dont ask an Indian if they can speak something in Indian language because sweety we have 22, and most of us can speak like 5 of them (I can and that is excluding English, because I grew up around people from multiple states, yes I'm flexing)
You don't have to know names of all of those languages (because that is a ridiculous expectation to have) but here are a few tips:
1) Hindi is not our national language
2) Each language is distinct and doesn't overlap the other apart from two or three words in some languages
3) Languages differ statewise, so maybe ask them which state they belong to and then what language they speak.
Also we have overlapping languages with our neighbors
Punjabi/Sindhi/Urdu - Pakistan (Urdu and Hindi is understood by people of both nations)
Tamil - Sri Lanka
Bengali - Bangladesh
Devanagri script is used by Nepal and India and hence people of Nepal are able to read and somewhat understand Hindi as well over and above their own language.
You travel from North to South in India and the people may not understand each other just one state apart or there are linguistic barriers between neighboring states, and we have acknowledged that difference and frankly I see it at as a strength.
You can make fun of our accent all you want but know this, we speak one language more than you by the time we are 5 and can win against you in a debate in four languages including yours by the time we are 7.
I'm tired of the ignorance, like I said you don't need to know the names of all languages but please know that not every Indian can speak the language that you may have found to be Indian (which is mostly Hindi).
Ask us and we will happily tell you just because you showed us that courtesy.
P. S. I know there are like 1600 languages and dialects in India but I used the constitution for reference.
