Founded in 1957, JK Masale has built a legacy of purity, trust, and authenticity for over six decades. The journey began with the late Shri Dhannalal Jain, fondly called the “Jeera King,” and has grown into one of India’s most respected spice brands, known for its uncompromising commitment to quality.

Today, JK Masale proudly announced Bollywood actor Saif Ali Khan as its brand ambassador. The partnership is rooted in shared values and legacy. Saif, a member of one of India’s celebrated royal families and a highly respected actor, brings the perfect balance of heritage and modern appeal. His credibility, charm, and sophistication reflect the journey of JK Masale, where tradition meets evolving tastes.

“In Saif Ali Khan, we see a reflection of our own journey,” said Ashok Jain, Managing Director of JK Masale. “His royal lineage, refined persona, and the trust he commands make him a natural fit for a brand like ours. This partnership goes beyond endorsement, it is a union of legacies, where tradition and modern taste come together.”

The campaign featuring Saif Ali Khan will centre around three key themes:

  • Royalty & Heritage – JK Masale’s six-decade presence in Indian kitchens mirrors Saif’s cultural and cinematic lineage.

  • Authenticity & Trust – The brand’s reputation for purity and consistency across generations aligns with Saif’s trusted public presence.

  • Modern Sophistication – Both the brand and Saif embody a refined sensibility that appeals to the new-age consumer.

This partnership comes at a transformative moment for JK Masale. With a major investment in a state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Jaipur, the brand is embracing cutting-edge technology. The upcoming plant will house advanced grinding units, cold storage, and precision packaging systems, enhancing production capacity by 1480 tonnes per month to meet rising domestic and international demand.

With a strong presence across India, JK Masale also exports to countries including the UK, South Korea, Vietnam, Hong Kong, Thailand, and Bhutan. The association with Saif Ali Khan underlines the brand’s vision to honour its legacy while stepping confidently into the future through innovation and expansion.
