When vision meets execution, magic happens. Today, we're thrilled to announce that Kal Ke Krorepati is now part of the Favcy Group.
The Story Behind the Story
Every great acquisition has a backstory. This one begins in the lanes of Gujarat, where two visionaries dared to dream differently.
Milapsinh Jadeja, a serial entrepreneur and angel investor with over 80 investments across his portfolio, had a simple yet powerful vision: to give India's Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities the spotlight they deserved. As the creator of "Kal Ke Krorepati - छोटे शहर, बड़े सपने," Milapsinh understood something fundamental – India's next unicorns weren't just hiding in Bangalore's tech parks or Mumbai's corporate towers, they were brewing in the small towns and cities that form the country's entrepreneurial backbone.
Alongside him stood Jignesh Patel, co-founder of iRollermedia, who brought the creative vision to life. Together, they didn't just create a TV show – they built a movement that would bridge the gap between legacy business owners and emerging entrepreneurs.
The revolutionary concept: "Kal Ke Krorepati – Chhote Sheher Bade Sapne is a distinctive combination of investors, VC funds, and startups that goes beyond mere fundraising efforts to adopt a comprehensive approach that is designed to promote significant economic growth."
When Gujarat Became the Launchpad
The inaugural chapter launched in Ahmedabad with actor and entrepreneur Suniel Shetty as the face of the movement. What started as a regional initiative quickly proved its mettle – 500 startups applied, 27 were selected, and within the first season, ₹15 crores in funding was facilitated.
But this wasn't just about the money. It was about changing the narrative.
At Favcy, we've always believed in building ecosystems, not just companies. When we looked at what Milapsinh and Jignesh had created with Kal Ke Krorepati, we saw kindred spirits.
Here's what caught our attention:
The Vision Alignment: Both Favcy and KKK believe that India's startup story is incomplete without its Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities. While others were chasing the next big thing in metros, KKK was nurturing dreams where they mattered most.
The Execution Excellence: In just its first season, KKK had successfully executed on Zee Business and was ready for 5 more seasons. This wasn't a concept pitch – this was a proven, scalable model.
The Network Effect: Milapsinh's portfolio of 80+ investments across Fintech, Agrispace, Healthcare/Tech, combined with over two decades of senior management experience, brought invaluable network effects to the table.
The Impact Metrics: Real startups, real funding, real growth – KKK had already proven that television could be more than entertainment; it could be an engine for economic transformation.
What This Means
For Startups: You now have access to not just a TV platform, but an entire ecosystem. Favcy's venture building capabilities combined with KKK's media reach means your startup journey gets support from ideation to IPO.
For Investors: Favcy's due diligence processes with KKK's deal flow creates a unique investment pipeline that's both entertaining and profitable.
For Viewers: Get ready for startup stories that are not just inspiring but actionable. Every episode will be backed by Favcy's ecosystem support.
For India's Entrepreneurial Ecosystem: This acquisition represents something bigger – the institutionalization of startup support beyond traditional VC models.
The Favcy Group Advantage
Kal Ke Krorepati isn't just joining a company; it's becoming part of a movement. The Favcy Group's approach to venture building means:
Pre-validated startups: Every pitch you see will have gone through rigorous validation
Post-show support: Investments don't end with the episode; they begin there

A Personal Note from the Founders
"When we started Kal Ke Krorepati, we wanted to prove that India's small cities had big dreams. Today, joining Favcy means those dreams now have the infrastructure to become reality. This isn't just an acquisition – it's an acceleration of everything we believed in." - Milapsinh Jadeja & Jignesh Patel
Looking Ahead: The Road to National Impact
With Favcy's backing, Kal Ke Krorepati is ready to scale beyond Gujarat. The model that worked in Ahmedabad will now roll out across India, state by state, dream by dream.
But here's what excites us most: this acquisition represents a new category in Indian M&A – Media-Tech-VC convergence. We're not just buying a TV show; we're acquiring a platform that makes entrepreneurship accessible, investable, and scalable.
