About

I co-founded Pahari Roots to challenge the status quo of modern food systems — often shaped by adulteration, GMOs, and glossy marketing gimmicks. At the heart of our work is a simple mission: to bring real food and real people back to the centre. We source pure, uncorrupted produce from Northeast India — grown traditionally, harvested ethically, and deeply rooted in the land and its communities. By working directly with tribal farmers and honouring generational wisdom, every product — from Lakadong Turmeric to heirloom rice — carries the story of soil, soul, and sustainability. This is a personal commitment to reclaim the essence of food, uplift remote farming communities, and revive the long-lost flavours of our land. Let’s connect if you’re building, dreaming, or working toward a world where purity, purpose, and people matter.

Founder

Jan 2020 – Present · 6 yrs 3 mos · Mumbai · On-site

Pahari Roots is a growing food brand that brings clean, regional, and traditionally grown produce from Northeast India to a wider audience.
As co-founder, I wear many hats — from designing and developing products to building the brand, managing marketing, and supporting day-to-day operations and hiring. We work closely with farmers and our team to make sure everything we offer is honest, traceable, and true to its origin — without additives or shortcuts.
Some things we have worked on:
Built a direct sourcing network with tribal farmers in Meghalaya, focusing on traceability and fair pricing.
Introduced 25+ products — from Lakadong Turmeric to heirloom rice — now available online and in select stores.
Set up a small packaging and distribution unit to manage quality and logistics more efficiently.
Partnered with chefs, wellness experts, and small businesses to spread awareness around regional ingredients.
Regularly participate in exhibitions and farmers’ markets to connect directly with customers and gather feedback.
We’re building this slowly and intentionally, with the hope that more people reconnect with the purity of food and the stories behind it.
