Piyush said, “Aman Gupta, change your perspective in Shark Tank.” Peyush even questioned the trend of startups focusing mainly on quick delivery services and low-value products. “Are we going to be happy being delivery boys and girls... Is that the destiny of India... this is not startup, this is entrepreneurship... What other side is doing -- robotics, machine learning, 3D manufacturing and next generation factories factories.”
Further, he asked the sharks and other entrepreneurs to focus on businesses that are high in tech, innovation, and are futuristic. Talking about the same, he asked the entrepreneur if it is necessary to always make a chips or an ice cream brand and not focus on innovation and technology. Moreover, he mentioned how technology and innovation as business can shape the future of the country, and it is important for all the entrepreneurs to think wisely about it.

He also urged greater participation from local investors to foster self-reliant and sustainable growth.
