'Forget Shark Tank': Bengaluru kids ‘startup pitch’ steals the heart of Harsh Goenka; Video will melt your heart'

Three young children in Bengaluru have turned an ordinary street moment into a viral business pitch, impressing RPG Group chairman Harsh Goenka and sparking online applause for their eco-friendly idea. The kids, introducing themselves as the “founder, manager and co-manager”, explained their startup that delivers handmade paper bags to homes on a low-cost subscription model — catching the attention of social media for both creativity and confidence.

Harsh Goenka shares the clip

Harsh Goenka posted the video on X with a playful remark: “Forget Shark Tank, forget Ideabaaz, this pitch stole my heart.” In the clip, the kids calmly present their service, brand name and plan — much like seasoned entrepreneurs, but with school-bag charm and street-smarts instead of suits and slides.

Bengaluru kids sales pitch

The children explain they run a venture that makes paper bags without glue or scissors. They describe their offering in clear terms:

• ₹10 per month subscription
• Two paper bags delivered every Sunday
• Extra bags available for events or functions
• Free samples for new “customers”

One child confidently adds that customers can request up to ten bags a week, as long as they are on the monthly plan.

“Where is your office?”
When asked about their office location, the trio delivers the most endearing reply:
“We’re not sure of address… we will come to your house.”
No fancy co-working space. No pitch deck. Just pure, bootstrapped ambition — and a phone number scribbled on a slip of paper.

A subscription model, child-style

In an era when startups debate churn rates and customer acquisition costs, these kids keep it simple. Pay ten rupees. Get bags every week. Need more? Call.
Their business logic may not be in textbooks, but the pitch ticks modern boxes — sustainability, circular use, convenience, subscription pricing, and direct-to-home delivery.

A small idea with a big message

Some user commented on the video: "Not every startup begins with millions in seed funding. Some begin with a handful of paper, a big smile, and the courage to walk up to strangers," one user commented.

"This pitch had more emotion than half the Shark Tank season," said another user.
