The latest instalment of The Great Indian Kapil Show featured India`s finest entrepreneurs—BOAT`s Aman Gupta, MamaEarth`s Ghazal Alagh, OYO`s Ritesh Agarwal, and Paytm`s Vijay Shekhar Sharma—on stage with presenter Kapil Sharma, providing the right mix of humour and inspiration. The program promises a laugh riot, combining business expertise with Kapil`s characteristic comedy.

As the conversation shifted to the highs and lows of entrepreneurship, BOAT co-founder Aman Gupta offered his credo, "Dhanda karne ka ek hi fanda, kabhi na hona sharminda," before impersonating Navjot Singh Sidhu with a hilarious, "Thoko taali."

Aman shared an anecdote

Aman opened out about his personal path, revealing how others treated him differently during failures and successes. "I had a relative who absolutely disregarded me when my first few initiatives failed. Woh bhao bhi nhi dete the; baat bhi nahi karte the. But as soon as I achieved success in my business, they turned around and said, `Come here, my beta,`" he claimed, leaving the crowd stunned.
