The brand's story began when Shivani Mehta and Harnehmat Kaur , two friends from the National Institute of Design in Ahmedabad, set up a stall for postcard writing at a World Post Day event in 2013. The event was a success, and the two friends went on to create Batees, which later became Daakroom . Daakroom is a cultural enterprise that aims to revive the art of handwritten communication. Daakroom's mission is to promote the art of letter writing in the 21st century and encourage a digital detox culture. The brand's name comes from the Hindi word daak, which means "post". This Shark Tank approved brand hosts events, products, workshops, and campaigns are designed to foster meaningful relationships and encourage people to write. Some of the activities and events Daakroom hosts include: Competitions, Philately (stamp collecting), Calligraphy, Origami, Graphology (the study of handwriting), Letter writing, Postcard making, Music, Theatre, and Dance. So far, Daakroom has written 1,000,000+ letters since 2015, and one of their highlights remains a flagship event, where around 50 schools participated by writing letters to the Prime Minister, Army jawans, and Mahatma Gandhi on his 150th birth anniversary. Bollywood celebs like Sushmita Sen, Tahira Kashyap and Deepika Padukone too have been a part. Enough inspiration to revive the art of handwritten communication?

As a budding business, mentorship at the right time makes all the difference. All thanks to Ritesh Agarwal for offering his time and valuable advice to Daakroom at a recent meet-up with our co-founders. Shark Tank India #sharktankindia #sharktank #entrepreneurship

We recently had the opportunity to meet our mentor, Ritesh Agarwal. A couple of months back, he generously spent 40 minutes with us on a mentorship call, offering incredibly valuable guidance. Last week, we had the chance to meet him in person, once again after the Shark Tank set, thanks to a meet-up he organised for all his investees. The insights we’ve gained from Ritesh are helping us carve a clearer path for Daakroom in these crucial early years of our business journey. His guidance is truly invaluable, and we’re grateful for the time and effort he puts into supporting us. A big thank you to Ritesh and his team for organising both sessions so smoothly. The most recent one was held at Innov8 coworking space in DLF Cyber Hub Gurgaon, and the arrangements were fantastic as well. #Mentorship #Guidance #EarlyBusinessYears #Grateful #Oyo #SharkTank OYO Shark Tank India Innov8 Harnehmat Kaur

Dear Teachers, If you're unsure how much we value your efforts, you must watch this video. All thanks to Supra Pens who bring to you this thoughtful initiative in association with Daakroom. Rarely does an occasion arise when students are autonomous to express their love and respect and realise the importance of their teachers. Nothing better than writing your feelings and sharing them with your mentors. Thanks to Supra Pens for strengthening this beautiful bond between a teacher and a student. Happy Teacher's Day 😊 #teachersday #daakroom #schoolactivities #writingcommunity #teacherscommunity #schools #happyteachersday
