Bollywood Celeb Investments In Startups This Year

This article is part of Inc42’s special year-end series — 2019 In Review — in which we will refresh your memory on the major developments in the Indian startup ecosystem from international collaborations to celebrity investments and their impact on various stakeholders — from entrepreneurs to investors. Find more stories from this series here.

The startup ecosystem has taken on a new dynamic in India as startups are entering everyday conversations. From receiving investments from large family houses and venture capitalists, startups have also learned to bring in glamour and entertainment. In addition to promoting ventures through ad campaigns, celebrities, who are working in the entertainment industry, across the world are now realising that the real proposition lies in investments and entrepreneurship.

While Hollywood celebrities such as Ashton Kutcher, Snoop Dogg, Nas, Jay-Z, Justin Timberlake, among others have been extending their Midas touch to startups around the world, Bollywood stars such as Shahrukh Khan, Amitabh Bachchan, Madhuri Dixit, among others have been fulfilling the glamour appetite of the Indian startup ecosystem.

Following the legacy of these veteran superstars, new-age Bollywood actors such as Ayushmann Khurrana, Deepika Padukone, and Arjun Kapoor became angel investors for some of the startups in 2019. Also, besides her big fat wedding, India’s desi girl Priyanka Chopra also made headlines in the startup ecosystem this year.

Here is the list of Bollywood celebrities who backed startups in 2019

Deepika Padukone

With a strategic partnership with Mumbai-based FMCG health food brand, Epigamia, Bollywood actress Deepika Padukone forayed into the startup ecosystem. The investment by Padukone came as an extension of the Series C funding round of Epigamia, which was led Verlinvest, Danone Manifesto Ventures, and DSG Consumer Partners.

Founded in 2015 by Rohan Mirchandani, Uday Thakker, Ganesh Krishnamoorthy, and Rahul Jain, Epigamia started as a Greek yoghurt brand. In its four years of journey, the brand has added other healthy F&B products, such as artisanal curd, snack packs, Indian sweets, and smoothies, to its kitty.

Padukone’s second investment this year came from her family office, Ka Entreprises, for investing in Delhi-based Blu Smart. JITO Angel Network, Kalpavriksh Trust, Survam Partners, cofounder of Micromax Rajesh Agarwal, and the MD of Bajaj Capital Sanjiv Bajaj also participated in the $3 Mn angel funding round of Blu Smart.

Launched in January 2019, Blu Smart started as an electric cab-hailing platform. In June 2019, the Delhi-based company pivoted to offer subscription-based car rentals, ride-sharing on both electric cars and bikes, and shared EV charging infrastructure across Delhi NCR region.

In addition to becoming an angel investor, Padukone also started her entrepreneurial journey with women focussed fashion label All About You and an NGO, Live Life Foundation.

Akshay Kumar

Famous for his athletic lifestyle on and off the screen, Bollywood actor Akshay Kumar’s investment journey followed his lifestyle patterns. Kumar, in June 2019, invested in Mumbai-based wearable tech startup, GOQii.

Founded in 2014 by Vishal Gondal, GOQii is a smart wearable device. It helps users to track their step count, sleep, and other physical activities. Moreover, GOQii’s smart ecosystem integrates real-time personalised coaching, a health ecommerce platform, scheduling health checkups, a health tracking feature, among other tools.

As part of this deal, Kumar also joined the company’s board as an investor and strategic advisor. Kumar is also hosting one of GOQii’s health education initiatives, India Health Quiz, on the mobile app. The actor will also conduct live coaching sessions on GOQii Play.

Aishwarya Rai Bachchan

Sidelining from Bollywood, former Miss World and Bollywood actor Aishwarya Rai Bachchan started her journey as an angel investor with an investment in Bengaluru-based environmental intelligence startup Ambee. Rai along with her mother Vrinda KR invested INR 50 Lakh each in Ambee.

Founded by Akshay Joshi, Jaideep Singh and Madhusudan Anand in 2017, Ambee provides hyperlocal air quality data. The data is then made accessible to developers, consumers, health researchers and media companies. For tracking the air quality data, the platform uses proprietary data and analytics to help customers make informed decisions or take preventive measures in a situation of severe environmental distress.

Arjun Kapoor

With a focus to empower women, Bollywood actor Arjun Kapoor invested in homemade food delivery company Foodcloud in May 2019. “My aim at investing in Foodcloud.in is to contribute towards a larger societal purpose of empowering the homemakers to contribute towards their family income,” he previously said.

Founded by Vedant Kanoi, Shamit Khemka, and Sanjhi Rajgarhia, the food delivery platform runs on the premise of home cooks delivering hygienic and home-cooked food to customers from their kitchens.

On bringing Kapoor onboard, Kanoi said that having a “socially conscious youth icon” like Kapoor’s support is a dream come true. “He has enjoyed the homemade food by our talented home chefs in Delhi and we’re excited to have his support to grow our initiative to new cities,” he said.

Priyanka Chopra

2019 has been arguably the most happening year for Bollywood actor Priyanka Chopra. She became one of the Bollywood’s representatives to invest in international startups.

This year, Chopra made investments in the alternative college education startup Holberton School and dating app Bumble. Founded in 2015 by Julien Barbier, Rudy Rigot and Sylvain Kalache, San Francisco-based Holberton School is a project-based alternative to college for creating the next generation of software engineers.

Moreover, her other investment, Bumble, was founded by Whitney Wolfe Herd in ‎2011 as a “feminist dating app”. In a tweet, Chopra had said that she is honoured to join the two companies that are striving to expand gender diversity in the tech space and make a social impact for the greater good of society.

Sukhbir Singh

Singer Sukhbir Singh also made a noise in the startup ecosystem with his investment in Gurugram-based beverage startup, LQI. Singh participated in the $200K funding round of this startup.

Founded in 2016, LQI uses their proprietary technology for the production of its branded smoothies, milkshakes and fruit water frozen packs made with 100% raw fresh fruit with an increased shelf life of 2.5 months without the use of any colours, flavours, purees or preservatives. Shubham Khanna, Palak Kapoor and Kapil Kumar are the founders of this startup.

The singer didn’t stop by making a single investment and hence made his other investment in Amritsar-based electric bike rental company eBikeGo. Founded in 2017 by Dr Irfan Khan, eBikeGo currently operates in Delhi, Amritsar, Jaipur, Jalandhar, and Agra.

Ayushmann Khurrana

With an investment in Gurugram-based male grooming startup The Man Company (TMC), Bollywood actor Ayushmann Khurrana, who is well-known for his unique characters on the screen, started his 2019’s entrepreneurial journey.

Founded in 2015 by Bhisham Bhateja, Hitesh Dhingra, Rohit Chawla and Parvesh Bareja, TMC has gained popularity for offering a complete head-to-toe range of men’s grooming products across various categories, including bath and body management, shaving and perfumes.

Rana Daggubati

Launched in partnership with early-stage VC, Anthill Ventures, Urban-i is a market access programme focused on accelerating the business growth of consumer brand startups in India.

The platform will serve as a strategically designed platform to bring together capital, consumer brands and celebrities under one platform. Speaking to Inc42, Rana Daggubati, said that the platform will help startups in finding the right marketing approach for the selected startups.

Katrina Kaif

Launched in partnership with Mumbai-based beauty ecommerce platform Nykaa, Kay Beauty deals cosmetic products priced in the range of INR 249 to INR 799 across Nykaa’s offline and online platforms.

Kay Beauty is Nykaa’s second big celebrity collaboration after it has partnered with designer Masaba Gupta for an exclusive cosmetic range.

As of now, Kay Beauty is offering a wide range of eye and lip products and Kaif claims that so far the brand has received a positive response which will help it to foray in other beauty segments such as skincare, haircare, among others.

Amitabh Bachchan
