Apart from his acting career, Abhishek Bachchan<\/a> has also made a name for himself as an entrepreneur.

Abhishek spoke about joining Naagin, an Indian hot sauce founded in 2019, as a strategic partner during a session organised as part of the Global Business Summit 2026<\/a>. Abhishek shared that it unfolded naturally, noting that the brand sometimes benefits from unexpected promotion from home.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt came across my table by chance. I tasted it and loved it. I used it a lot and eventually contacted the people behind it, asking, \u2018Can I get involved?\u2019 They were looking at their first round of funding, and I came on board as a strategic partner. It\u2019s a matter of great pride for me because it\u2019s doing exceedingly well\u2026 It also helps when Mr Amitabh Bachchan posts photos of his breakfast with a bottle of Naagin sauce on the side,\u201d Abhishek said.<\/p>\n

When it comes to his investments in Swiggy and Zepto, the actor said that it also stemmed from a personal experience. He said that one day, he ran out of Naagin sauce, and used a quick commerce app to have it delivered for dinner, and that\u2019s how it came about.<\/p>\n

Abhishek added that his association with Swiggy was driven by his love for Thane\u2019s Mamledar Misal, which he calls the best misal pav in the world.<\/p>\n

He shared, \u201cSo I called up Swiggy one day and asked, \u2018Guys, you deliver this to me every morning. Can I invest in you?\u2019 I spend so much money on those companies for their services that I feel they should give back a bit. Then I try investing in them and make some money off them.”<\/p>\n

Apart from his investments in Naagin and Swiggy, Abhishek also owns the Pro Kabaddi League<\/a> franchise Jaipur Pink Panthers and is co-owner of the Indian Super League team Chennaiyin FC. He has also invested in Vahdam Tea alongside Sachin Tendulkar<\/a>.<\/p>\n
