YouTuber Gaurav Taneja Faces Backlash for Promoting Another Brand After Shark Tank India Appearance

Following his unsuccessful pitch for BeastLife on Shark Tank India season 4, YouTuber Gaurav Taneja, also known as Flying Beast, is once again at the center of controversy. This time, the criticism stemmed from his promotion of Rosier Foods, a brand known for its organic products such as ghee made using Vedic techniques, oil, Amlaprash, raw honey, and nut butters. Taneja was observed endorsing these products in an Instagram story, offering them at a 15% discount in a special Shark Tank promotion.

The promotional activity by Taneja drew ire from social media users who felt deceived by his actions. Many expressed disappointment in Taneja for not disclosing his involvement with Rosier Foods during his Shark Tank appearance while now actively promoting the brand using the show's platform. Critics accused him of being hypocritical and using his influence for personal gain, especially after failing to secure a deal for BeastLife on the show.

Some users went as far as suggesting that people should stop consuming content from influencers like Taneja due to perceived dishonesty in their actions. Additionally, comments highlighted the dissatisfaction with the quality of Rosier Foods products, with one netizen labeling it as a scam. The backlash Taneja faced extended to criticism of his pitch on Shark Tank, where his credibility was questioned as investors pointed out that the initial success of BeastLife could be attributed to his existing followers rather than the product's merit.
