LINKEDIN PROFILEKamal Nayan Tiwari and Aryan Kumar Keshri never started Afterlife to build another beverage company.
They started it to build something far more meaningful.
Because to them, the greatest tragedy isn't death.
It's reaching the end of your life realizing you never truly lived.
That belief became the foundation of Afterlife. It's why the brand carries the tagline:
DEATH IS OVERRATED.
Every can of Afterlife is designed to represent that philosophy.
Not just through its ingredients. But through the feeling it stands for.
As food technologists, Kamal and Aryan refused to outsource the heart of their product.
They immersed themselves in the science of beverages—studying fermentation, formulation, sensory development, ingredient functionality, and consumer experience.
Was developed with one goal: To create beverages people genuinely connect with.
PUSA KRISHI INCUBATION CENTRE (ICAR-IARI)
That obsession with innovation earned them recognition from Pusa Krishi Incubation Centre (ICAR-IARI), where their vision received government incubation support to transform an idea into reality.
AFTERLIFE RITUALS
// BEYOND BEVERAGES
But Afterlife was never meant to stop at beverages.
Afterlife is built to create a culture.
That belief led to the birth of Afterlife Rituals. An extension of the brand where strangers become a community. Where music, art, and shared experiences replace everyday expectations. Where, for one night, people can disconnect from routine and reconnect with themselves.
Because Afterlife isn't something you simply drink. It's something you experience.

🎉 STAY TUNED FOR NEXT PARTIES
For Kamal and Aryan, this is only the beginning.
They aren't building a single product. Or a single company. They're building a generation of experiences, innovations, and beverage concepts that challenge convention and redefine how people connect with what they consume.
The mission has never been to follow the industry. It's to leave a mark on it.
