What's your inspiration behind the launch?

Priyanka: I think the biggest inspiration is being a mother myself and I am a firm believer of using ingredients from the kitchen; and also using Indian recipes and not using anything which is chemically infused. So, I wanted to launch 'maate' and I was very clear it should be 100 percent natural and effective and not just a product package which looks nice or smells nice. I wanted something which actually works. It's all about bringing Indian recipes to forefront, the rich ingredients we have, the rich Ayurveda.

What's the motive behind the brand 'maate'?

Priyanka: 'maate' means Mother, to embody all the values of a mother-nurturing, resilient, ambitious, protective, genuine and accessible. We are true to motherhood by setting out to nourish, protect, cleanse and comfort. As a brand started by a mother, and being a mother I want to give the best noruishment to my child so it wall aligned well. The moment you here the word maate, you know it's all about the motherly feeling and that' what we wanted to bring in on these products.

What is basis of the products?

Priyanka: It is about exclusivity and our pledge to every mother is to give their baby exclusive and genuine experiences. We are taking care of the most delicate stages of human life and we have a great responsibility to be completely safe, clean, pure and effective. We strive to meet these high standards and never compromise.

What you have mainly focused on while the manufacturing these products, was it the traditional way of baby care or the new-modern tech way?

Priyanka: We adventure deep, to distil the most precious oils and herbs with an intent to preserve nature in its purest forms. This is the inheritance from our ancestors, from our ancient ayurvedic wisdom combined with modern science comes together in every product.

What was your experience while doing the research and the blends of herbs and oils?

Priyanka: I wanted each product to be very effective and result oriented, we also did those tests in the labs where we saw what's the effect of the products. We found that hair oil really works and it also helps in thickening of hair, we actually have proven results. Of course, I do not come from that background so it was a whole new journey for me to take but thankfully I had a very strong team behind me. I have all the motherly emotions attached to it and I could tell as a mother what I want and then the team which is technically experienced and strong in this field created the products. So, working as a team made it a stronger project and we could come up with something great. I was really satisfied with and I had my own challenges, my own learnings but the final outcome was fantastic.
