Dear Readers,
On our cover this month is the remarkably versatile Kriti Sanon, whose journey is anything but conventional. An engineering student from Delhi who began modelling almost by chance, Kriti gradually discovered a love for the camera and the world of acting. From her early commercial appearances to becoming one of Bollywood’s leading ladies, she has built a career defined by reinvention. Films such as Mimi, Do Patti, Heropanti, and Cocktail 2 reflect her ability to move between glamour and substance while continually challenging herself. In our Cover Story, we look at the clear-headed choices that have shaped her journey.
Our Feature Story this month celebrates Indian festive fashion—a world where clothing is woven with memory, tradition, and identity. From couture to contemporary separates, designers are finding fresh ways to reinterpret India’s extraordinary textiles and craftsmanship. Across platforms such as India Couture Week, Bombay Times Fashion Week, Lakmé Fashion Week, Blenders Pride Fashion Tour, and other regional showcases, Indian fashion is becoming more diverse, individual, and wonderfully expressive.
In People in Focus, we speak with Dr Rajat Kandhari, board-certified dermatologist and Medical Director at Dr Kandhari’s Skin and Dental Clinic in Delhi. With his evidence-based approach to aesthetic dermatology, he shares his thoughts on healthy skin, longevity, emerging treatments, and the changing meaning of beauty.
And in Grand Getaways, Chhaya Momaya takes us along on her family travels through Montenegro and Copenhagen, discovering the character, culture and beauty of two very different European destinations.
Our Mind & Body section looks at ‘The Silent Language of What We Wear’, exploring how clothing can communicate far more than personal style—often expressing mood, identity and emotions without saying a word.
Happy reading!
