Actor and marathon runner Milind Soman backs a natural health food startup

Model-turned-actor Milind Soman wears many hats and no shoes. And while his marathon sprints are quite famous, he’s now running in the business race, as an investor in a health and nutrition food product.

Soman attributes this new phase to chance. “I have no agenda. I like to explore opportunities. I started swimming by chance and was a national champion, I also started modelling by chance,” he said. After working in television, he started his own production house in 1997. “I also started my event company in 1989 —my first startup. I have invested in companies that I felt would do well. Any company that appeals to me , I try to make a business investment in them, ” he said.
