VIDEO INTRODUCTION:
Hello everybody,
Old monk is one of the most iconic drinks in the Indian liquor history!!

And its taste was so iconic that it was considered to be the drink of gods and legends!! Old monk was so far ahead of its competition that While its competitors were selling 2-3 million cases a year, old monk alone was selling 8 million cases a year!! The best part was that the old monk achieved all of this with a zero marketing Budget!!!But you know what?? Somehow have you noticed, the old monk seems to have suddenly disappeared from the market!! Today Old Monk is nowhere close to being a market leader and from what I last read, the condition of the company was so bad that it was bleeding with 20 crores in losses and was almost on the verge of bankruptcy!!!
