The holistic and wellness products have been formulated using active, natural and efficacious ingredients, according to a joint statement. 

Akshay Kumar, who is well-known for his fitness and wellness regime, will be deeply involved in the brand and product development. The actor’s tried and tested regime will also be introduced in the product range, which is expected to be launched by mid-2023. 

The JV will leverage the group’s content-creator-commerce moat to drive DTC revenues through 200 million monthly active users of Good Media Co and over 1 million influencers of Good Creator Co, along with the R&D strengths and offline distribution network of Good Brands Co across 150 cities in India.

Akshay Kumar, speaking on the partnership said, “I have always wanted to create natural yet efficacious products based on all the learnings I have had and practiced in holistic wellness. The Good Glamm Group has built some of India’s largest and most loved DTC beauty & personal care brands and is very unique in its content-creator-commerce strategy. I am really excited about the products we will be developing and the business that we will be building together.” 

Darpan Sanghvi, Group Founder & CEO, The Good Glamm Group said that they could not have found a more “authentic, trusted and knowledgeable partner” to develop the product with.
