“Shark Tank using @Ashneer_Grover’s names for getting views #Doglapan #SharkTankIndia,” wrote X user Nawaz while sharing a picture on the microblogging site.
The picture shows a clip uploaded by Shark Tank India on their YouTube Channel with the title, “‘Inside FPV’ ke creative drones ko dekhkar Shark Amit hue ‘speechless’ [After witnessing the creative drones of ‘Inside FPV,’ Shark Amit became ‘speechless’].” The interesting part is that the video was originally uploaded on January 25 with the hashtag #AshneerGrover, as per the screenshot.
