New Delhi: Shark Tank India Season 2 is making a lot of noise these days. Be it Vinita Singh’s smashing pitch competing with Sugar Cosmetics or Flatheads emotional pitch, the show has kept the audience hooked. Now, Emcure Pharmaceuticals executive director and Shark Tank judge Namita Thapar shared a tweet in which she accused her house help of stealing her phone and posting hateful comments.
“This is what makes this world hateful, makes people poisonous. An educated house help, who was fired, stole my phone and put up a hateful post on me on social media. The cost of being a public figure! Apologies!,” she tweeted.

However, netizens didn’t believe Namitha’s explanation and trolled her for the tweet. One user commented, “That educated house help knew your phone password… Nice try, good luck next time.” “Since creating stories is not your expertise, you should have quit and let your social media manager come up with a better excuse,” Added another user. “If you had said that your account was hacked, it would have been more believable,” A third user has been added.
