"I've made ice-candies by myself": Aashka Goradia
ISAYICE- a joint venture by Aashka Goradia and Rohit Bakshi marks one year of anniversary today…

In its first year of business, the Gola outlet 'ISAYICE' is doing remarkably well.
On this great occasion, we got in touch with the very beautiful actress Aashka Goradia, as she expresses her joy, "I'm very happy and it's a very big day for Rohit and me. ISAYICE has got a wonderful response and that is how we have been able to complete one year and we wish to move further and launch more franchises very soon."
So is there any celebration happening today?
"I and Rohit are going to go to the outlet in the evening and do a small puja, as we have been able to pull off one year so well."
Talking about the entire idea behind the whole concept of 'ISAYICE', Aashka went on to say, "The entire thought was only that the traditional thing needed to be opened in a frozen dessert. People are getting too modern with yoghurt and ice-creams; therefore the whole concept was to make the Gola too very hygienic."
Sharing her experience at ISAYICE, the actress says, "There have been many instances when I've actually made Golas and served them to people. I believe business is something very different from the acting profession. Moreover, in a retail business you are no more a star, in fact your customers are your stars there. They are the people who really make your business transform into a brand."
"There have been unexpected situations when the customers have to be served at the store and if one of my staff is unwell or if they have been out for catering, I've made ice-candies by myself, that's what business is all about!" exclaimed the beautiful actress.
Wonder if celebrities also have their share of fun chilling out at ISAYICE, Aashka made us aware saying, "Yes, lots of actors keep coming in, like Rohit Roy and the director Ken Ghosh, since his daughter is a big fan of ISAYICE. If I'm not at the store, they drop down a message that it was delightful to visit ISAYICE. Off late, Vrajesh Hirjee, Urvashi Dholkai and Sana Khan had also come at the outlet. Needless to say, I love the way they keep showing their love towards ISAYICE."
Since it is a joint venture by Aashka and Rohit, the actress is very grateful to Bisleri who has been a pillar of support. She says, "Bisleri has given us tremendous support throughout the year and we couldn't have made it till here without Bisleri. I'm thankful to Anjana Ghosh and Ramesh Chauhan for the huge support they have given."
If you are planning to visit ISAYICE, what would you grab on… "Our specialty at ISAYICE is a dish called as Gola la la la, which is the most wonderful Gola that everyone loves", ended the actress.

@nikki... # isnt Aashka a muslim acc to the recent TB Ramadan article ? # THERE IS ONLY 1 GOD BUT JUST AS YOU MAY TRAVEL IN MANY DIFFERENT WAYS TO GET TO YOUR DESTINATION, I.E. AIR, ROAD, SHIP, AIR BALLOON, TRAIN, BUS, CAR, WALKING, ETC.. # IN THE SAME WAY, TO REACH GOD THERE ARE DIFFERENT RELIGIOUS WAY TO GET TO HIM AND IT WOULD BE WRONG TO FORCE SOMEONE TO TRAVEL IN THE SAME MANNER AS YOUR PREFERENCE! # LEAVE THE CHOICE UP TO EACH INDIVIDUAL... # JUST AS AASHKA GORADIA HAS MADE A CHOICE FOR HERSELF!, BUT THAT DOES MEAN THAT SHE CAN NOT SUPPORT TRAVELERS ON A DIFFERENT ROUTE...
