OPPO India to Co-Present Shark Tank India Season 5 with Sony LIV

Empowering young innovators to Make Their Moment on India’s biggest stage for entrepreneurship 

Mumbai, 19^th December 2025: OPPO India announced its association with Sony LIV as Co-Presenter of Shark Tank India Season 5, marking a strategic partnership rooted in a shared belief in creation, self-expression, and the courage to pursue one’s passion. Bringing its brand philosophy, Make Your Moment, to India’s premier entrepreneurial stage, OPPO reinforces its commitment to empowering a generation that dares to dream, innovate, and lead with confidence.

Over the years, Shark Tank India has evolved into a cultural movement, giving young founders from across the country a powerful stage to showcase ideas, challenge conventions, and unlock opportunities. By spotlighting grassroots business models, the platform has reshaped how India views the startup landscape — making it aspirational, accessible, and deeply personal.

The collaboration was unveiled at a first-of-its-kind experiential event held at the Shark Tank India set in Mumbai. The event witnessed the presence of Ranjana Mangla, Head of Ad Revenue at Sony LIV; Goldee Patnaik, Head of Communications, OPPO India; Ritesh Agarwal, Founder and CEO, OYO Rooms; and Shaily Mehrotra, CEO, Fixderma India.

Commenting on the occasion, Goldee Patnaik, Head of Communications, OPPO India, said, “OPPO India’s collaboration with Shark Tank India is a strategic partnership that brings technology and entrepreneurship together on India’s leading platform for innovators. While Shark Tank India provides a national stage for bold ideas, OPPO delivers solutions that enable individuals to create their own stories. Together, we are celebrating a generation of young leaders who are shaping India’s startup ecosystem.”

As Shark Tank India enters its fifth season, OPPO’s association signals a shift from conventional sponsorship to a value-driven collaboration. United by a shared focus on creativity and possibility, the brands have come together to celebrate individuals who transform ideas into impact, where technology becomes an enabler of expression and action.

For OPPO India, the partnership with Shark Tank India goes beyond co-presentation. It represents a shared vision of empowering new-age innovators and supporting the next generation of changemakers as they build extraordinary stories.

The fifth season of Shark Tank India, premiering in January 2025, will feature a dynamic mix of returning and new Sharks, bringing a wealth of expertise and perspectives to the show.
