The Apprentice 2016: Karthik Nagesan absolutely owns his monobrow in Episode 2 and it’s brilliant

When the new series of The Apprentice kicked off last week, one hopeful in particular stood out.

33 year-old IT Consultancy owner Karthik Nagesan proved an intense addition to the boardroom, with his outspoken attitude and bold facial hair.

In the second episode, Nagesan speaks out about his impressive monobrow – a feature which he’s more than proud of.

“I think we have the best model for our video,” he says in a task that sees the teams marketing a pair of luxury Japanese jeans, pointing at himself and adding that he wouldn’t want to remove any of his body hair – especially above his eyes.

“If I wanted to be like everybody else, then I would have plucked my monobrow,” he says.

“But I don’t want to be like anybody else, everybody else wants to be like me.”

While his confidence can’t be knocked, Karthik once again becomes a divisive figure in the men’s team as he clashes with his fellow team mates.

Things don’t go quite so well on the women’s team either, with project manager Jessica Cunningham having to admit to Karren Brady that they’ve lost their jeans sample just hours into the task. Whoops.

Tune in to the episode to find out who the next casualty of Lord Sugar’s firing finger will be.
