Dr. F.H
Qureshi, a small time ayurveda practitioner from Mumbai practicising for about 5 years. While practicing, he came across many patients with sexual
debility. He referred to
“Ashtang Khadyam”, 1935 publication from Varanasi and prescribed some
herbs. To his pleasant
surprise the patient came back to thank him for the potent treatment.
This motivated Dr.Qureshi to start manufacturing unit of ayurvedic
medicines. As a typical
moderate risk taker having no financial backing, he started manufacturing
three medicines: Booty Vita, Booty Tone and Booty Gel from the backyard of
his rented premises in Mumbai. |

Dr. Qureshi started producing three medicines
related to sexual debility in the form of Booty Vita, a paste/potion;
Booty tone, a powder and Booty gel for external application from his home and used to look after all
functions such as procurements of raw material, arranging workers,
product, packaging etc. on his own. By 2003, he had tied up
marketing arrangements with 50 parties in Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh,
West Bengal and Uttar Pradesh. To enable smooth distribution of his products to retailers in
Mumbai and other parts of the country, in 1998 he set up a marketing arm
of his firm M/s.Heena Ayurvedic in Mumbai, which was distributing Booty
products to 50 odd retailers/distributors across Mumbai and other cities
as mentioned above. |

Dr. Qureshi has developed emotional attachment with
his products and believes in the effectiveness of his products rather than
attractiveness of the packaging and name of the product.
Simple, easy to remember and generic names appeal him. At present as against 5 people employed in 1995-96,
it employs 30 people today comprising medical representatives, managers
and Business Development executives who have started taking care right
from the product management to the sales management. In terms of number of
products it deals with, the number has gone up from 3 in 95 – 96 to 20
in 2003. The firm introduced
a series of products catering to many therapeutic segments. The products
included for female reproductive disorders, cough and cold syrups, kidney
disorders, diabetics, blood purifier, anthelmentics etc. . In the recent
years some low price products such as Dentex tooth powder have been added to it
product portfolio. The price
range to products varies between Rs.15-185.
