The Dark Reality of Startup Mahakumbh 2025 – A Wake-up Call? 1. Gyan on Ice Cream, not on policy improvement. 2. Star Power Over Startups The same minister seen sharing the dais with Sonam Kapoor – introduced as a hardworking successful startup founder. Let that sink in. 3. Pod Allotment: Mail vs. Reality Startups received official confirmation emails for pod space. But upon arrival, chaos reigned. No pods. No explanations. Those who raised this bouncers were called upon. 4. Maharathi Awards ? Halfway through the awards, organizers paused to take their own group photos with ministers .Then abruptly ended the event, asking winners to collect their trophies from the help desk. Classy. 5. Award Money? Still Waiting No updates. No POC. Just radio silence. 6. Everyone Got Their Moment – Except Startups Bureaucrats, sponsors, ministers, influencers , media… everyone had their spotlight. The actual startups, the very reason this event existed? Just props in the background.

Let’s be honest, we’re mad not because celebrities were there, but because the startups weren’t given equal visibility. A well-curated celeb panel isn’t the problem. Ignoring founders is.

Kinda expected from government organised events..still heart-breaking that even this sector is getting corrupted by incumbent ministers and bureaucrats

What was supposed to be India’s biggest platform for startups turned into an influencer meet-and-greet? It’s giving Shark Tank cosplay with none of the substance. The fact that award winners didn’t even get their moment on stage is insane.

sorry but I was looking for this. Only an entrepreneur can understand these startups, the govt is just wasting time. Every Indian knows about our government, it does not matter which party.

The responsible authority and ministers neither have any clue what start ups need nor any intention to improve... sad state of affairs

What a scam. Founders walk away feeling humiliated, unsupported, and invisible. And next time? They won’t bother showing up. India’s startup scene deserves better than photo ops and broken promises.
