Meet Shrikant Harne, a real life 'Idiot' whose patent-pending research on 'Oily Spot' disease in pomegranate farming may well end up preventing losses of Rs.1,300 crores ($325 million) for farmers in India.

Shrikant prepared a Business Plan with the help of three 'idiots' - Asheesh Mehrortra, Ganesh Konge and Swapnil Patil. Shrikant's Business Plan for his unique product has won national competition and has got him seed funding of Rs. 1 crore ($0.25 million) to start his own company. He will be graduating out of PUMBA (Pune University MBA Dept.) this year.
