Kimirica Partners with Netflix, to launch a luxurious limited-edition fragrance-led cultural Bridgerton collaboration by Shondaland India, 30th January 2026: Luxury lifestyle brand Kimirica has unveiled a fragrance first collaboration with Netflix and Shondaland’s global series Bridgerton, signalling a growing shift in how Indian brands are approaching pop culture partnerships. Rather than relying on surface level licensing, the Kimirica x Bridgerton collection translates narrative, mood, and emotion into a thoughtfully designed, multi category self-care experience. At the heart of the collaboration lies Kimirica’s long standing belief that fragrance is not an accessory, but a powerful emotional anchor. The collection is structured around three distinct fragrance stories, each inspired by the world of Bridgerton and designed to extend seamlessly across bath, body, and home formats. Mayfair Soirée offers a fresh, daytime profile built around bright citrus notes of orange rind balanced with a woody cedar base, designed for everyday rituals. Lady in Silver is quieter and more restrained, centred around white wisteria, creating a soft, intimate fragrance experience suited for workdays and personal moments. Midnight Masquerade introduces a richer, evening-oriented scent, blending neroli and thyme to create warmth and depth that translates effortlessly into candles, room sprays, and body mists. The collection spans across body & hand washes, body & hand lotions, body mists, soy candles, reed diffusers, room sprays, curated hand caddy sets, and luxury gift sets. Central to the range are body mists, a growing favourite for offering a lighter and more versatile way to experience scent throughout the day. Equally distinctive are the hand caddy sets, designed as refined sink-side accessories that elevate everyday spaces while blending function with aesthetic appeal. Together, reinforcing Kimirica’s strength in building fragrances that move fluidly across personal and living spaces. This category spanning approach reflects the brand’s larger strategy of designing lifestyle ecosystems rather than standalone products. Speaking on the collaboration, Rajat Jain, Co-founder and CEO, Kimirica, said, “With Kimirica x Bridgerton, we wanted to create something truly larger than life. Fragrance has always been our strongest expression, and this collaboration allowed us to build an entire world around it, one that feels emotional, immersive, and indulgent at every touchpoint.” Design plays a central role in the collection’s storytelling. Regency inspired illustrations, metallic foiling, and carefully balanced colour palettes lend the products visual richness The packaging is intended to be collectible yet functional, aligning with Kimirica’s philosophy that luxury should feel lived in, not ornamental. Kimi Jain, Co-founder and Head of Brand Experience, added, “A truly premium product is a holistic experience. It cannot force a choice between luxury, wellness, and responsibility. This collection reflects our belief that indulgence today must be thoughtful, where design, fragrance, formulation, and ethics coexist seamlessly.” The collaboration is underpinned by Kimirica’s broader brand commitments. Every product is vegan, cruelty free, dermatologically tested, IFRA certified, and manufactured in India. The formulations are free from SLS and parabens, made using responsibly sourced ingredients, and developed through Kimirica’s in house R&D and manufacturing capabilities. These values extend across the brand’s wider portfolio, which includes fragrance, bath and body, skincare, home fragrance, and personalised gifting. Beyond personal care, Kimirica has built a strong presence in luxury home fragrances, offering soy candles, room sprays, reed diffusers, and design forward hand caddy sets that blend décor with daily function. With curated gifting formats and pre assembled experience sets, the brand has positioned itself at the intersection of self-care, design, and modern Indian luxury. The Kimirica x Bridgerton collaboration reflects a growing maturity in India’s lifestyle brand landscape, where cultural relevance is driven by depth, not novelty. By anchoring the partnership in fragrance, design, and conscious manufacturing, Kimirica demonstrates how Indian brands can engage with global entertainment properties while retaining authenticity and long-term brand equity. With presence across 100 plus locations in India and a strong direct to consumer platform, Kimirica continues to build thoughtfully crafted self-care experiences that blur the line between beauty, wellness, and home, proving that modern luxury is as much about how something makes you feel as how it looks.

Big Risks, Bigger Bets: Bharat Ke Super Founders Unlocks Fresh Capital and High-Impact Deals This Week on Amazon MX Player ~Bharat Ke Super Founders is available to stream for free on Amazon MX Player, with new episodes dropping every Friday and Saturday~ MUMBAI, India – 24th January, 2026: This week on Amazon MX Player’s entrepreneurial reality series, Bharat Ke Super Founders, the pitch room witnessed some of the season’s most defining moments yet. Bold ideas were tested under pressure, and real capital moved with conviction. With a ₹100 crore investment pool at stake, reaffirming its commitment to founders willing to take real risks and build for the long haul. Pitches this week were evaluated by a diverse panel of tycoons, including Dr. A. Velumani, Ankur Mittal, Srini Srinivasan (Managing Director, Kotak Alternate Asset Manager), Shivam Mishra (Co-Founder, String Ventures), and Ahana Gautam (Founder & CEO, Open Secret). Hosted and mentored by the iconic Suniel Shetty, the discussions went far beyond polished decks, digging into belief, scalability, and the cost of ambition. One of the most talked-about moments came from Ulti-Mate Parenting, founded by Satish Kshirsagar and Amruta Jog. The founders pitched a parenting app designed to help parents build stronger bonds with children aged between 3 to 13, encouraging life skills and emotional resilience. Despite a personal investment of ₹95 lakh and a strong, purpose-driven narrative, the pitch faced tough questioning around market viability. While Shanti Mohan used her one-on-one card to probe the founders’ thinking, the room ultimately extended an acquisition-only offer testing whether the founders would trade their vision for capital. Choosing belief over money, the Ulti-Mate Parenting team walked away, creating one of the week’s most powerful non-deal moments. The biggest capital movement of the week came from Cosmoserve, a space-tech startup founded by former ISRO scientist Dr. Chiranjeevi. Drawing on his experience across missions like Chandrayaan and Gaganyaan, the founder presented an ambitious plan to build space infrastructure solutions and remove 100 dead satellites by 2028. The pitch drew multiple offers before closing a ₹5.5 crore deal, led by Dr. A. Velumani with ₹5 crore and joined by Srini Srinivasan with ₹50 lakh, marking one of the largest single deals of the season so far. Adding to the week’s momentum was Babai Tiffins, a heritage South Indian brand rooted in Nellore, known for its homestyle cooking and iconic breakfast flavours. The pitch brought legacy, consistency, and cultural resonance into the room, highlighting how traditional businesses continue to find relevance and scale. Episode momentum carried forward with Babai Kitchen, a breakfast-focused, Andhra-style vegetarian QSR brand led by Ravi Morampudi. With close to 1.9 lakh monthly orders and ₹7 crore in monthly revenue, the brand spotlighted a clear opportunity in India’s largely unorganised breakfast QSR segment reinforcing the growing investor interest in scalable food businesses. He pitched a valuation of ₹6 crore for 5% equity, winning unanimous confidence from the tycoons, who backed both the idea and the product by investing in his business. The week closed with a strong purpose-led deal from RxMen, a men’s health ecosystem addressing sexual and hormonal wellness, an area often clouded by stigma. With over 10,000 men already treated and ₹9 crore in annual revenue, the founders secured a ₹30 lakh investment, underlining the show’s commitment to businesses solving real, deeply personal problems. Adding to the diversity of ideas, Shhe Foods also entered the pitch room with a nutrition-first brand built specifically for women, blending Ayurvedic wisdom with modern nutritional science to address different life stages.
