Doglapan: The Hard Truth about Life and Start-Ups

This is the unfiltered story of Ashneer Grover—the beloved yet often misunderstood poster boy of Start-up India.

Raw, brutally honest, and straight from the heart, this is storytelling at its best.

From a young boy with a "refugee" tag growing up in Delhi's Malviya Nagar, Ashneer defied the odds, rising to become a top rank-holder at IIT Delhi, a pinnacle of academic achievement in India. He further honed his skills with an MBA from the prestigious IIM Ahmedabad, launching a successful career as an investment banker with Kotak Investment Banking and AmEx. Ashneer played a crucial role in building two unicorns—Grofers, as CFO, and BharatPe, as co-founder.

As a judge on the popular TV show Shark Tank India, Ashneer became a household name, but his life soon took a dramatic turn. Controversy, relentless media scrutiny, and endless social media chatter made it increasingly difficult to separate fact from fiction.
