“It’s about time - Shantanu Deshpande should stop acting like he is an Entrepreneur”-Acid

News is they are going to sell it off. That's why all the branding and personal imagery etc

lol, how will buy them? HUL, ITC, p&g?

He already has strategic investment from colgate-palmolive. I suppose they were planning to eventuall acquire it like marico did with beardo but it’s possible BSC didnt hit some agreed upon metrics stalling the whole thing
I hate seeing his Neanderthal ass face show up on my YouTube feed. I feel like he's hustling hard with all these gimmicks to get a seat on the latest Indian copycat product , shark tank india.
Also, the general reception I've got of bsc products is that they are subpar.

Who is shantanu Deshpande?

Have you heard about Bombay shaving company?

Idk about the selling off rumours, but he’s doing what those “sharks” are doing. In every field/niche, as competition grows, the incumbents are forced to level up their game. This can mean different things for different niches. There was a time when simply being an engineer was enough some decades back, and now engineers are expected to be proficient across multiple tools/technologies/frameworks.
For Indian entrepreneurship, it seems like the next big step now is to garner, shape and build a public persona that also serves as a proxy social capital for your own venture. He’s adopting the shark strategy with youtube/linkedin as his distribution. And that strategy is still a valid strategy so I don’t think what he’s doing is not entrepreneurial. In fact, if anything its even more entrepreneurial- to be able to go from “the 18 hour work comment maarne wala” to “celebrated cpg entrepreneur” via that barbershop initiative is quite an interesting and successful strategic manoeuvre. This acid mf op has started posting some bs superficial sentence of a “hot take” posted here to farm grapes or whatever engagement is coined here so id say its about time he stops acting like a cringe karma farming redditor on this platform - axiom 📈🤷♂️
