Our Story

We’ve all had a love affair with fizzy drinks. Growing up, a cold cola was the ultimate treat with spicy food, at college canteens, late-night parties, or just on its own. It was fun, fizzy, and refreshing. But once we became more health-conscious, we realized what was inside these soft drinks: 25–35 grams of sugar per serve, artificial colors, artificial flavors, and preservatives. No wonder India is called the diabetes capital of the world.

Haki's co-founders, Lavesh and Chetna, began their journey with fizzy drinks long before they launched Haki. Lavesh used to be hooked on Sp**te and Mi***da. Chetna’s fridge was always stocked with Th**s Up. We loved those drinks until we discovered how much sugar and chemical junk we were consuming. Suddenly, something that once gave us joy became the first thing we had to cut out of our diet.

And the so-called “zero sugar” options weren’t any better. They came with artificial sweeteners - the kind that mess with insulin, metabolism, and gut health. Honestly, for anyone who cares about wellness, that didn’t feel like a choice. Either you gave up fizzy drinks altogether, or you drank something that wasn’t truly healthy. That’s when we saw the gap.

There was no fizzy drink for health-conscious Indians like us. Nothing that gave you the same fun, refreshing experience without the sugar crash, the artificial junk, or the empty calories. So, we created Haki.

A healthy fizzy drink that’s zero sugar, zero junk, and packed with 250 Crore probiotics per serve to support gut health. We use plant-based ingredients, clean recipes, and bold flavors that actually taste amazing. Because health shouldn’t come at the cost of taste.

For decades, carbonated soft drinks haven’t changed. Our parents drank the same colas we grew up on. That was soda from the past. With Haki, we’re leading the change in India’s fizzy drinks/soda category by creating products that you can truly enjoy guilt-free.

That’s why we call Haki: Soda from the Future.

Our Philosophy: What “Haki” Means

In fiction, Haki is an inner power - a mysterious energy that, once mastered, unlocks your true potential. For us, it’s more than just a name. It represents courage, discipline, and the journey of becoming your best self.

For us as founders, Haki is about mastering our own journey by creating something the industry has never seen before and pushing ourselves to build with courage and purpose.

What it means for you

Your best self isn’t built overnight. It’s the result of small, consistent choices by choosing better every day. And that includes what you drink.

Switching from a sugar-loaded cola to a clean, probiotic soda might seem like a tiny change. But when those small choices stack up, they become powerful. They move you closer to your potential.

With every sip, you’re not just enjoying a bold, refreshing drink - you’re making a better choice that builds into something bigger.
