Roast Tank Third Edition – India's First Founders Roast Show
About the Event
Pitch. Roast. Repeat.

Where startups get roasted and remembered.

Step into the third edition of Roast Tank, presented as India's First Founders Roast Show — an unconventional evening that brings together startup founders, investors and stand-up comedians under one roof.

The event combines startup pitches, investor grilling, comedy roasting and audience interaction into a single format. Founders get the opportunity to present their startups, VCs question and challenge their ideas, comedians turn the spotlight into comedy, and the audience gets to laugh, learn and engage with the experience.

Roast Tank creates a setting where the worlds of entrepreneurship, venture capital and stand-up comedy meet. Instead of a conventional pitch event or a regular comedy show, the format moves through multiple stages of pitching, questioning and roasting.

The event features Shivansh Srivastava as host and stand-up comedian, Anmol Garg aka Corporate Baba as a stand-up comedian, and Aditya Singh, Co-founder of All In Capital, as part of the panel.

The evening will also feature two surprise guest panelists, adding an element of anticipation to the lineup.

Beyond the stage, attendees get an opportunity to network with founders and investors backed by Shark Tank India, Titan Capital, All In Capital, WTFund and more, according to the supplied event description.

There are no rehearsed replays and no second chances.

No replays. No second chances. Just pitch, roast and repeat.

What Is Roast Tank?

Roast Tank is a startup-focused event format built around a combination of founder pitches, investor questioning and comedy roasting.

The event brings three groups together:

Founders, who pitch their startups and ideas.

Investors, who grill founders and examine their pitches.

Stand-up comedians, who roast the founders and bring a comedic perspective to the room.

The audience becomes another important part of the experience, watching the interaction unfold while getting an opportunity to laugh, learn and connect with others from the startup ecosystem.

How Roast Tank Works

The event follows a simple four-stage format.

1. Founders Pitch Their Startups

Founders step into the spotlight and present their startups.

They get an opportunity to communicate their ideas, businesses and propositions in front of a panel and live audience.

The pitch forms the foundation for everything that follows.

2. VCs Grill Them

Once the pitch is delivered, the investors and panel engage with the founders.

The VCs question and challenge the presentations, creating a direct interaction between entrepreneurs and investors.

This part of the event brings the seriousness of startup pitching into a more unconventional environment.

3. Comics Roast Them

After the investor grilling comes the roast.

Stand-up comedians turn the founders' pitches and the evening's interactions into comedy, bringing humour and entertainment into the startup discussion.

This is what gives Roast Tank its distinctive identity as a founders roast show.

4. The Audience Laughs, Learns and Leaves Inspired

The audience gets to observe the entire process.

From startup pitches and investor questions to comedic roasts, attendees experience a format designed to offer both entertainment and insight into the startup world.

The event description describes the outcome simply:

The audience laughs, learns and leaves inspired.

Founders Meet Investors Meet Comics

Roast Tank creates an unusual intersection between three different communities.

Startup Founders

Entrepreneurs get a platform to pitch their startups and put their ideas in front of an audience and panel.

Investors

Venture capital professionals get an opportunity to question the pitches and engage directly with founders.

Stand-Up Comedians

Comedians bring another perspective to the event by transforming startup moments into roast material.

The interaction between these three groups creates the central energy of Roast Tank.

Meet the Panel

The third edition features a panel combining hosting, comedy and venture capital experience.

Shivansh Srivastava – Host & Stand-Up Comedian

Shivansh Srivastava serves as the host and stand-up comedian for Roast Tank.

His role places him at the centre of the event flow, connecting the different stages of pitching, grilling and roasting while contributing his own comedy to the evening.

As the host, he helps guide the audience through the event's unconventional format.

Anmol Garg aka Corporate Baba – Stand-Up Comedian

Anmol Garg, also known as Corporate Baba, joins the lineup as a stand-up comedian.

His role adds the dedicated comedy and roast component to the event, contributing to the humorous side of the startup-focused evening.

The combination of entrepreneurship and comedy gives the event its distinctive roast-show format.

Aditya Singh – Co-Founder, All In Capital

Aditya Singh, Co-Founder of All In Capital, is featured as part of the investor panel.

His participation brings a venture capital perspective to the founder pitches and grilling sessions.

The investor component is central to the event's format, creating an environment where startup ideas are not simply presented but questioned and discussed.

Two Surprise Guest Panelists

The event also promises 2 surprise guest panelists.

Their identities are not specified in the supplied event information, making their appearance an additional element of anticipation for attendees.

Startup Pitches with a Twist

Traditional startup pitches generally focus on presenting a business idea to investors or an audience.

Roast Tank takes the pitch format and places it inside a comedy-driven live event.

Founders still have to present their startups, but the pitch becomes the starting point for investor questions and eventually the comedy roast.

This creates a very different environment from a standard business presentation.

Investors Get to Grill Founders

The investor grilling segment introduces direct questioning into the experience.

The founders pitch their startups, and the VCs then engage with those ideas through questions and challenges.

For audiences interested in entrepreneurship, this offers a live look at the kind of conversations that can arise around startup pitches.

The comedic roast that follows adds another layer to the interaction.

When Startup Culture Meets Stand-Up

Roast Tank combines two worlds that are rarely presented together in the same format.

The startup ecosystem brings:

Ideas

Pitches

Investors

Business conversations

Stand-up brings:

Comedy

Roasting

Audience reactions

Entertainment

Putting them together creates an event where a serious founder pitch can quickly become the setup for a comedy segment.

The Audience Is Part of the Experience

The event is not structured solely around the people on stage.

The audience watches pitches, follows investor conversations and reacts to the comedy.

The supplied description specifically highlights the audience as a group that laughs, learns and leaves inspired.

This makes audience participation and reactions an important part of the atmosphere.

Network with Founders and Investors

Beyond the stage programme, Roast Tank also offers a networking opportunity.

According to the supplied event description, attendees can get a chance to network with some of the best investors and founders backed by:

Shark Tank India

Titan Capital

All In Capital

WTFund

And more

The event therefore combines entertainment with an opportunity to connect with people from the startup and investment ecosystem.

A Different Kind of Startup Event

Roast Tank is not presented as a traditional conference, pitch competition or comedy show.

Its format combines elements of each:

Pitch Event: Founders present startups.

Investor Session: VCs grill the founders.

Comedy Show: Comedians roast the startup moments.

Community Gathering: The audience interacts and networks.

This blended format is what gives the event its identity.

Pitch. Roast. Repeat.

The slogan captures the structure of the event.

Pitch — Founders take the stage.

Roast — Comedians turn the spotlight into comedy.

Repeat — The format continues through multiple founder interactions.

The event is designed around this cycle, creating a fast-moving evening that combines business conversations and comedy.

No Replays. No Second Chances.

Roast Tank positions itself around the idea of immediacy.

The supplied event description states:

No replays. No second chances.

The phrase reflects the live and unpredictable nature of the format, where founders, investors, comedians and the audience experience the interactions together in real time.
