They had come to Shark Tank India to raise money for setting up their factory. But, they were unable to win any deal from the sharks.

Avimee herbal Keshpallav hair oil
This is their star product. The story behind concocting this hair oil is very interesting.
During the first wave of Covid when Radha Krishna’s daughter, whose name is Vinita Agarwal was suffering from severe hair fall.
Many years back Radha Krishna too had encountered a sudden increase in his hair fall. He looked towards Ayurveda to find a cure. He formulated a recipe for hair oil. But, there were a few inconsistencies in the effectiveness during his first attempt at making the oil. At that time he was also engrossed in his textile business, so he couldn’t find time to modify & improve the formula.
However, his research was still on. After the first covid wave, his daughter Vinita noticed a steep rise in her hair fall. It motivated him to concoct a solution for the hair fall problem of his daughter.
According to him, “The motive behind making the hair oil was to save my daughter from facing the stigma of not having hair just as I faced for my baldness.”
Little did he know that the knowledge that he acquired over 25 years was about to culminate into a Miracle product.
This time he gave attention to minute detail and fetched the ingredients from around the country. He made sure the ingredients came from the right place and were of the highest quality. After processing & conducting trials, the oil was ready. The formula used was effective & unbeatable.
Seeing the results on himself and his daughter, he distributed it to family & friends. Everybody appreciated him for the results. Eventually, he and his daughter started selling through Instagram.
When his inspiring story was shared on social media by his granddaughter-in-law, Ambika who is also the co-founder, Radha Krishna became an overnight star and they began to get a massive following.
When the testaments of the oil were shared on social media, numerous inquiries poured in. Thousands of people wanted to use the oil. And this gave birth to their brand AVIMEE HERBAL.
Keshpallav Hair Oil is a blend of more than 150 herbs infused in cold-pressed oils like coconut, black sesame, olive, castor, kalonji, and more than 50 carrier oils and essential oils.
*It contains no mineral oils.

Concluding remarks
Shark Tank India has provided an excellent platform for entrepreneurs of all ages to pitch their brands and spread their stories amongst the people of India.
We hope that the entrepreneurial story of Radha Krishna inspires many people who had sacrificed their dreams and spent most of their lives working for others and makes them realize that it is never too late.
We wish to see more and more senior citizens, not letting their age come in the way to give shape to their dreams.
