        Ahmedabad (Gujarat)
        A
              Start-up. Usually, this word sounds good.
              But the one who takes up a start-up realises
              how much effort is to put in for a start-up.
        One such woman entrepreneur is Alka Gor from
        Ahmedabad. She was in search of funds for her
        start-up. She reached out to a few angel investors
        and  venture  capital  firms  for  funding.  But  every
        time she was disappointed for some or other rea-
        son. At that time, she thought that a lot of people
        like her would be trotting the steps of investors’
        offices with new business ideas. If a nice platform
        is provided for such young entrepreneurs, they will
        get mentorship and funding. Well, this led to the
        start-up show ‘Kal Ke Krorepati’.
            On the other hand, venture builder Milaps-
        ingh Jadeja of Ahmedabad was also thinking of
        staging a similar show. With the help of a common
        friend, Alka Gor and Milapsingh met each other.
        Both decided to produce the show. Film star Sunil
        Shetty also extended his support to it.
            The pre-launch event of the show was held
        in Ahmedabad and was attended by Sunil Shetty.
        Kal Ke Krorepati is a unique reality show which
        is made in Hindi language and will be telecasted
        soon on National Television. The first chapter or
        the  first  season  of  this  show  is  cantered  on  the
        start-ups of Gujarat. Going ahead, the seasons will
        also be held in states including Rajasthan and Ma-
        harashtra.
            Kal Ke Krorepati has a completely different
        and entertaining layout from other similar shows.
        For the first season, more than 500 business pro-
        posals and ideas were invited from across Gujarat.
        Out of them, 27 start-ups with original ideas were
        given a chance to shine in the show. All of them
        were provided with the opportunity to pitch their
        business and its bright future to a panel of inves-
        tors.
            For this purpose, a three-minute live pitch
        time was allotted to everyone. Commenting on
        the show, Venture Builder Milapsingh Jadeja said,
        “Kal Ke Krorepati carries a significant amount of
        potential to promote Gujarat’s start-up ecosystem
        and India’s comprehensive entrepreneurial land-
        scape. We hope that this initiative will bring start-
        ups, investors and stakeholders together for net-
        working and brainstorming and play an important
        role as a unique platform promoting fundraising
        opportunities.”
            The show is produced by Alka Gor. She spoke  show in Gujarat is a matter of pride for seven crore  necessary funds and move ahead. I am sure that
        about the high standard of the show as well as its  Guajarati and the entire country. This show will  this show will get established as an excellent plat-
        success. She said, “Such a unique and premier  make it easier for promising businesses to get the  form of the country in its segment.”
