Actress-turned-entrepreneur Parul Gulati, who has appeared in a number of popular television programmes including “Girls Hostel,” “Haq Se,” “Illegal – Justice,” and “Out of Order,” impressed the sharks on “Shark Tank India 2” not only with her hair oil line but also with her life-altering choice to launch her business while pursuing her acting career.
During the finale episode of ‘Shark tank India 2’, Parul shared her hair extension brand and said that it caters to the diverse needs of women who suffer from hair problems, such as hair loss, damaged hair, hair thinning, and restricted growth, or who love to experiment with their hairstyles.
Parul Gulati asked for an investment of Rs 1 crore for 2 per cent equity in ‘Nish Hair’ from the sharks.
Sharks Vineeta Singh and Aman Gupta offered her Rs 1 crore for 3 per cent in equity. It was followed by Amit Jain’s offer of Rs 1 crore for 2 per cent of equity.
While sharing her experience of appearing on the show, Parul Gulati said: “I’ve been watching ‘Shark Tank US’ for a while, and I’ve always dreamt of pitching my business ideas to the sharks. But when I first launched Nish Hair, I couldn’t have imagined being in front of someone, asking for investment. Because, firstly, I lacked confidence and secondly, numbers truly confused me.”
“So when I finally got a chance to pitch my brand on ‘Shark Tank India 2’, I could barely believe it. I had binge-watched Season 1 and secretly wished I was a shark on it. It has been one of my life’s top three moments, and I’m so happy that I decided to go as a contestant. I’ve never felt so cool and alive. I started my company without attending business school and developed a fantastic solution that aids women struggling with hair issues,” Parul Gulati said.
