About this issue
Dear Readers,
My husband, Asad Latif and I had an exclusive and personal conversation with Azmet Jah, the Ninth Nizam of Hyderabad. Nizam Azmet is a man of humility and simplicity, with a down-to-earth demeanour. His upbringing and character, though princely, is without attitude, airs, or arrogance. I see in his eyes, that one of his most important achievements has been his son’s upbringing, which speaks volumes - his first priority being his immediate family. As Nizam IX, he will also give care and attention to the people and continue being the fine human being that he is. Our interview delves into personal reflections of his younger years, passion for photography, and commitment to preserving his family’s heritage. His story offers a captivating glimpse into his life, family, and legacy, deeply rooted in the rich cultural heritage of Hyderabad. Turn to our Cover Story to discover more about his remarkable journey.
Our Feature Story delves into the most unique and opulent heirlooms that have been passed down generations of royal families. From dazzling jewels to ornate accessories, stunning artefacts to majestic thrones, these treasures symbolise the continuity and prestige of royal lineage. Take a look!
The beauty of Polki diamond jewellery lies in its seamless blend of the old and the new, creating a style that is both timeless and contemporary. Turn to Special Feature where my sister Zakia gives her expert opinion on the allure of Polkis.
Royalty, sophistication, and glamour infuse every page of this issue! In People in Focus, we chat with Princess Brijeshwari Gohil of Bhavnagar, who is dedicated to conserving cultural heritage through projects like restoring family cenotaphs and rare book libraries. With academic qualifications in Archaeology and Art History, she leads initiatives preserving her rich legacy in Bhavnagar, a historic maritime state.
We also feature an exclusive interview with Lubna Allana, a wonderful human being with grace and beauty. She is the founder of 1865 La Maison, a luxury homeware brand known for bespoke modern antiques that blend artisanal traditions with contemporary design.
