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.
