Shark Tank India 2: The Shark Tank India season 2 judges Anupam Mittal, Peyush Bansal, Namita Thapar, Vineeta Singh, and Aman Gupta lauded mother-son duo Ashish and Simmi Nanda, the founders of BeUnic for their courageous LGBTQ pitch. Ashish Chopra, his brother Vishesh Chopra and their mother Simmi had come to Shark Tank India season two to get funding for their brand BeUnic. Simmi revealed his son is gay and shared their journey on how much it took to accept this fact. Their brand BeUnic is described as a curated lifestyle products created by queer entrepreneurs. They also work and donate a share of their profits to NGOs working with the queer community. Judges loved their pitch and applaud Simmi for her statement – “Love them, hug them because the closet is not the place to be in”.
“Closet is not the place to be in”, rightly said by Simmi Nanda from #BeUnic. 💯#SharkTankIndia season 2 streaming now on Sony LIV, also available on Sony Entertainment Television. pic.twitter.com/QUvzHN4Mwj
