Parul Gulati
In Bollywood, we often see that stars first establish their film career and then try their hand in business. But some people follow both the paths simultaneously. One such story is of Parul Gulati. She has been seen in Kapil Sharma’s film Kis Kisko Pyaar Karoon 2. Along with acting, he also worked hard to fulfill his business dream and worked with so much dedication that today the value of his company has reached Rs 50 crore.
The beginning of becoming a businesswoman from an actress
Parul entered the world of acting in 2009 with the TV show Yeh Pyaar Na Hoga Kam. Gradually she started appearing in small and big projects. But his heart was not only on the camera but also on his own business idea. While still an actress, she started working on a business plan. Their goal was clear, to create a new and trusted brand in the hair extensions and hair products industry in India.
Creation of Nish Hair from Rs 30,000
In the year 2017, Parul started her own brand named Nish Hair with a personal investment of just Rs 30,000. This brand gradually became an all-in-one platform for the customers, where everything like hair extensions, wigs, toppers and hair tools are available. Such premium and customized products were less in the Indian market. Parul recognized this shortcoming and provided both quality and confidence to the customers.

Seeing his confidence, shark Amit Jain offered him Rs 1 crore for 2% equity. This step further strengthened Nish Hair. Today the valuation of the company has reached Rs 50 crore and it is continuously increasing.
Business idea and inspiration
Parul told that the idea of Nish Hair did not come suddenly. She watched Keeping Up With The Kardashians and got the idea after hearing Khloe Kardashian talk about hair extensions in an episode. Then he decided that his first business would be in the hair extension industry.
big dreams for the future
Today Parul is not satisfied with just running a company worth crores. Recently in a podcast he clearly said that his goal is to become a billionaire. He believes that if hard work and thinking is big, then the destination should also be big.
