    Tulips launches adult diaper pants with Boman Irani as new ambassador

    MUMBAI: Tulips has officially entered India’s adult hygiene category with the launch of Tulips adult diaper pants, roping in Bollywood veteran Boman Irani as the face of its new ‘Life par full control’ campaign. The initiative seeks to start a national conversation and tackle the stigma around adult diaper use.

    The diapers feature an aloe vera–coated inner sheet for comfort, advanced leak protection for up to 10 hours with an acquisition deposition layer (ADL), odour lock technology for day-long freshness, and tear-away side panels for easy removal. Designed in a unisex pull-up style across all sizes, they resemble regular underwear, offering dignity and confidence to users.

    Speaking at the launch, Tulips, director, Rahul Jain explained, “Lifestyle-related health issues mean many seniors face urinary incontinence, yet only 2 per cent of the Indian market adopts adult diapers. Our short film with Irani encourages seniors to see diapers as a tool for independence, not a symbol of dependence.”

    Boman Irani added, “Age should not mean limitation. Tulips adult diaper pants allow seniors to live with comfort, independence and self-respect.”

    Tulips has a legacy of innovation, from introducing India’s first 100 per cent flushable wet wipes in 2017 to developing Covid swabs during the pandemic. With over 60 million units sold annually across 17 countries, the brand continues to prioritise real-life solutions and consumer trust.

     

  • Curated video platform Flickstree nets Sourav Ganguly as investor

    MUMBAI: Indian cricketing legend and former captain Sourav Ganguly has made his very first foray in the startup world by investing in Mumbai-based company, Flickstree.

    Flickstree, a tech-entertainment company started by Saurabh Singh, Rahul Jain and Nagender Sangra, has raised a seed round Rs 30 million capital from investors like Venture Catalysts, Anirban Aditya & Ankit Aditya (Aditya Group, Kolkata) and Moksh Sports Ventures, along with Sourav Ganguly. Venture Catalysts is leading the round.

    Flickstree compiles these free-to-watch curated and personalised online videos from social networks, media sites, and blogs and then creates a custom user video feed. The AI based on patent pending technology, allows Flickstree to effectively curate and personalize the experience for its users.

    “Different users have different passions. I decided to invest in Flickstree because they’re at the forefront of innovative cutting edge technology,” said Sourav Ganguly.

    Ganguly added: While currently users can create only a single video magazine on Flickstree based on their interests, going forward I have asked the founders to enable users create multiple such magazines that users can create and enjoy.”

    CEO Singh said, “With so many content producers creating quality content, it becomes difficult for users to discover videos across multiple platforms. Flickstree is trying to organise video content from the free web for users.”

    “The free-to-watch video space is extremely fragmented. These videos are published exclusively on separate platforms – a user who has interest in several categories cannot install multiple apps and keep browsing them separately, also owing to limited phone storage. This leads to poor video discovery. Flickstree is trying to solve this consumer problem,” said Satadru Dutta, co-founder Moksh Sports Ventures and Business Development Consultant to Flickstree.

    Apoorv Ranjan Sharma, co-founder and president Venture Catalysts, said, “Flickstree’s core technology is an AI powered video recognition technology that watches videos in-screen like human beings. The patent pending technology generates keywords for each video and gathers video popularity, sentiment and engagements on Internet.”
