Barphani: From a Family’s Mission to a Movement in Healing
A Legacy Rooted in Healing, A Future Built on Trust
In the late 19th century, Dr. Laddha’s grandfather left the drought-ridden lands of Jodhpur, Rajasthan, and settled in Sinnar, Maharashtra. Farming was impossible, and survival was uncertain. His son, Chunilal Ji, pivoted from agriculture to trading, ensuring his family not only survived but thrived. He believed in one thing above all—education as a path to transformation.
One of his sons, Dr. Dwarkanath Laddha, took that wisdom forward, earning MBBS degree from B.J. Medical College, Pune, and specialised in paediatrics. He could have chosen a lucrative career in a metro city, but when his father urged him to serve their native land, he answered the call.
In 1973, alongside his wife, Dr. Mangala Laddha— a rare medical expert trained in both Allopathy and Ayurveda (and the real force behind Barphani’s initiation), he set up a clinic in Sinnar, where there wasn’t a single doctor for miles.
A Growing Epidemic of Chronic Skin Conditions
Sinnar, once known as the "Bidi Capital of India," was home to thousands of farmers and hardworking labourers. With constant exposure to chemicals, poor nutrition, poor hygiene, and harsh working conditions, chronic skin conditions like psoriasis, eczema, vitiligo, and fungal infections were rampant.
💢 Cracked skin. Relentless itching. Social stigma and rejection.
💢 Temporary relief from steroids—only to return worse.
💢 A cycle of frustration, hopelessness, and shame.
The only available treatments were steroid-laden, expensive, and full of side effects. People suffered in silence, fear, and isolation.
Dr. Laddha and Dr. Mangala refused to accept this. They searched for something better—something lasting.
The Turning Point: Rediscovering Ayurveda’s Power
Frustrated with short-term allopathic treatments, the couple turned to Ayurveda. They crafted gentle yet powerful herbal formulations—soothing, healing, nourishing and steroid-free.
✨ A single handmade ointment became a game-changer.
✨ Word spread. Patients saw lasting relief.
✨ A community once burdened by skin conditions found hope.
For 40+ years, their homemade herbal remedies transformed thousands of lives.
2018: A New Chapter – Barphani is Born
After decades of success, it was time to bring this knowledge to the world. In 2018, the Laddha family founded Shri Barphani Pharma— named after Adi Yogi Lord Shiva (Baba Barphani) and their Himalayan spiritual guru (Shri Barphani Dadaji).
🔹 Natural. Pure. Science-backed.
🔹 A new era in steroid-free, Ayurveda-powered skincare.
2020: COVID-19 – A Catalyst for Expansion
Then, in 2020, the world changed.
Harshal, their son—a first generation entrepreneur— returned to Nashik during the lockdown. While assisting his parents, he discovered something extraordinary:
💡 The same Ayurvedic herbs used for skin healing had powerful immunity-boosting properties.
💡 They aligned with global COVID-19 research on antiviral herbs.
Determined to help, Barphani created an immunity-boosting formulation and distributed it to thousands of Frontline workers, Local communities, Police forces.
The results were undeniable.
Word spread. Testimonials flooded in. Even Doordarshan covered the story.
💚 Barphani’s legacy of healing had just begun.
Harshal’s Moment of Realization: A New Purpose
As Harshal delved deeper into his parents' work during the lockdown period, one moment changed everything.
One evening, while speaking with a long-time psoriasis patient, he heard a confession that shook him:
"I’ve spent years covering my skin, avoiding people, and feeling like I’d never be normal again. I even had suicidal thoughts. Your parents’ medicine gave me hope when I had none."
This wasn’t just about treating skin conditions—this was about transforming lives.
For the first time, Harshal realized the true power of healing.
💡 Ayurveda wasn’t just an ancient system— it was the future.
💡 Healing wasn’t just physical—it was emotional, social, and deeply personal.
Determined to take Barphani to its next level, he left behind his lucrative tech career and fully committed himself to Ayurveda with his parents. He studied ancient Ayurvedic texts, explored modern herbal research and also pursued a formal education in Naturopathy.
With science, tradition, and technology, Barphani is now leading the Natural Skincare revolution—making it a global name in steroid-free, natural healing.
