From Public Visibility to Professional Insight
For over fifteen years, Nitin Sahrawat worked across India’s television advertising industry, appearing in more than 150 commercials for Indian and global brands across FMCG, automotive, and consumer technology.
He also featured in prime-time television series including Bade Achhe Lagte Hain, Kitani Mohabbat Hai (Season 2), and Qubool Hai, with his work covered by national publications such as The Times of India.
Prolonged exposure to professional lighting, heavy makeup, and products designed for short-term visual impact revealed a clear gap between cosmetic advertising claims and long-term skin health. That observation became the basis for a different path.
A Decade of Reconstruction (2016–2026)
Stepping away from a visible career in his early thirties, Nitin spent the next decade rebuilding from first principles — academically, professionally, and personally.
This period involved relinquishing public visibility, financial predictability, and professional certainty in order to pursue long-term competence and institutional credibility. BestIndian™ is the outcome of this reconstruction — not a pivot, endorsement, or licensing exercise.
Discipline Through Education
After returning to Dehradun in his late thirties, Nitin undertook a six-year academic journey — completing graduation with distinction before earning a law degree from DAV PG College, affiliated with HNBGU (a Central University).
In 2026, he passed the All India Bar Examination (AIBE XX) and is currently enrolled with the Bar Council of Uttarakhand. This legal grounding informs the brand’s emphasis on accountability, compliance, and institutional responsibility.
Intellectual Property & Stewardship
Nitin has personally filed, defended, and secured ownership of 35+ trademarks across multiple classes, navigating objections and oppositions to protect brand identity, formulation names, and long-term equity.
This hands-on stewardship ensures that BestIndian™ operates with clarity, continuity, and respect for legal and creative boundaries.
Where Ayurveda Meets Modern Science
Early exposure to Ayurveda, combined with years of environmental and forest work in Uttarakhand, shaped an understanding of botanicals grounded in lived experience rather than abstraction.
With BestIndian™, this knowledge is translated — not romanticised — through collaboration with scientists and controlled formulation processes, resulting in reproducible, performance-led products designed for long-term use.
Environmental Responsibility in Practice
In Dehradun, Nitin restored barren land into a living forest — Atal Vatika — planting and nurturing native species such as Kadamba, Rudraksha, and Amla. The site has since regained biodiversity, with birds returning after decades.
A Rudraksha tree planted there honours soldiers of the Bihar Regiment.

Compassion as Daily Practice
Animal welfare is integrated into daily life rather than treated as advocacy. Nitin has supported sterilisation and vaccination initiatives, rescued abandoned animals, and contributed to rehabilitation programmes for retired service dogs.
A Measured Commitment
From inception, BestIndian™ commits 25% of revenue toward environmental restoration, animal welfare, and youth empowerment initiatives. This commitment reflects operating philosophy, not marketing intent.
