Entrepreneur Background
Trishla Surana (Co-founder & CEO) is the inventor, product visionary, and brand identity creator whose broad feet and consequent shoe-finding difficulties catalysed the business, and whose design sensibility drove Colour Me Mad's original "children's doodles as footwear art" concept before the pivot to orthopedic technology. Rajeev Surana (Co-founder & Marketing Head) is from Raipur, Chhattisgarh and his background in marketing and business development gave Colour Me Mad the commercial discipline that a designer-founded company needs to scale. Rajeev said: "I am from Raipur, a boy whose city has given him the passion and courage to dream big. It truly gives me immense pleasure that I have been able to chart my journey from my hometown Raipur to Shark Tank India." The founding history has two distinct phases: 2014–2016: Colour Me Mad as lifestyle footwear brand personalised flip-flops with printed fabric and children's doodle designs.
