Sandip Soparrkar Crowned “King of Art4Peace’ in Beverly Hills, Hollywood, USA

For over two decades Bollywood ace dancer choreographer Sandip Soparrkar has been winning various awards for his contribution in the field of dance and social work. His National excellence award winning initiative ‘Dance for a Cause’ has been using dance as a medium to raise awareness and for the betterment of the society and its varied issues. But this year is very special for dancer choreographer Sandip Soparrkar because his worldwide initiative “Dance for a Cause” is getting international appreciation. Dressed in white Shervani designed by Deepak Shah of More Mischief and styled by Pooja Shah Bhandari and Jashank Bhandari, Sandip Soparrkar was crowned and honoured by Art4Peace Awards with the title of “King of Art4Peace” for his social work through “Dance for a Cause” and Ms Alma Dang an artist and a philanthropist from Mexico who has been working towards ending ignorance and exploitation of children was crowned “Queen of Art4Peace” at the prestigious Saban Theatre Beverly Hills, Los Angles, California, USA.

At the after party after receiving this international honour, dressed in a sequins black and white tuxedo designed by Chhaya Gandhi, the dapper King of Art4Peace, spoke with team Spotless, excerpts from the interview;

Congratulation for this huge honour, how do you feel?

I humbled and truly honoured receiving the title of ‘King of Art4Peace’ this crown brings myriad responsibilities and I promise to shoulder it with utmost sincerity and dedication and to do justice to the motto “From my heart to your heart love and peace, we are one ”

It has been a long journey, tell us how it all began? Dance for a Cause, started in 2008, with our first performance at the World Economic Forum in Davos Switzerland, through dance we spoke of the cause of Save the tiger Since then year after we take up a cause and set dance dramas around it and perform it all over the world, I am happy to share that we have spread awareness for HIV, care for the elderly, domestic violence, drug abuse, acid attack, environmental issues, down syndrome and many more

Page 2 Spot'less Fashion Magazine| May 2023 | Issue 65 @spotlessfashionmagazine

Such a huge international honour for all the philanthropically work, must be overwhelming for sure?

Absolutely it is overwhelming, every recognition is, when we first received the National excellence award in 2016, my team and me felt so happy, then came a postage stamp by the Kingdom of Bhutan for completing 10 successful years of Dance for a cause and now the crown and position of ‘King of Art4Peace’ things are indeed getting bigger and brighter for sure

Tell us more about the Art4Peace event?

Dame Munni Irone founded Art4Peace, a non-profit organisation, in collaboration with Dr Gershom Sikaala presented the 11th annual Art4Peace Awards and three day International Peace Summit and Gala in Beverly Hills, USA Art4Peace Awards are born to sever and their global peace leaders are constantly working towards making a global positive change They dream for a safer, peaceful and loving world through Art, Culture and Wisdom Dame Dr Munni Irone founded and instituted The Arts4Peace Awards in 2011, with the simple aim that “success comes when we serve ” The organisation wishes to bring about a global change and produce leaders via the Arts and through Wisdom The tenets are Non- violence, Wisdom, Love and Peace The purpose of awards is to demonstrate to every nation the importance of culture to the whole fabric of the world and by showcasing through art, they understand and experience love, Wisdom and wish the creative minds and hearts usher in a pathway to peace

Each year through dance you bring out a new cause, what are your plans for this year?

This year I have created a dance drama “Why Roses Are Red” which is based on greek mythology, it a love story of Goddess of beauty Venue and her lover God of strength Adonis We have tired up with Avacayam NGO Since time immemorial, flowers have been the purest form of offering to God by the devotees The idols are adorned with flowers ranging from roses to marigolds and jasmine to shevanti, peppering the four walls of the temple, church, masjid and all holy places, with a pleasant aroma But have you ever wondered what happens to the flowers that are replaced the next day by a different bunch of blooms? The decaying flowers in mud-spattered plastic bags would perhaps float downstream, becoming a critical cause of pollution, this is where NGO Avacayam steps in, Avacayam in Sanskrit mean ‘gathering flowers’ they gather and recycle the flower waste from holy places and make holi colours, candles etc with it Spotless team also spoke with the organiser of Art4Peace Dame Munni Irone and this is what she stated, “Mr Sandip deserves the title ‘King of Art 4 Peace’, this crown comes to him as an appreciation for all the philanthropical work he has been doing through his worldwide initiative “Dance for a Cause” We at Art4Peace know that through his initiative he has raised funds and created awareness for innumerable charitable caused all over the globe We believe that he is a torchbearer for the art of giving through the medium of dance We are sure that Mr Sandip along with Ms Dang will shoulder their responsibilities and duties of spreading love and peace untrusted upon them ”

Dancing journey for this twinkle toed dancer has surely not been easy, having seen the ups and downs that the world of dance has to offer yet Soparrkar has carved a niche for himself in the world of dance, Team Spotless congratulates Sandip Soparrkar for this new title and position as well as wishes him all the very best for his future endeavours

Over a century has passed since the invention of photography. It has changed over time into many other genres and techniques, with fashion photography being one among them. Fashion photography is a distinct genre that calls for a certain set of abilities and information. It is a very competitive sector, thus photographers who wish to specialise in it must be prepared to encounter numerous difficulties and roadblocks.

ABOUT ME

Hi, I am Subham Banerjee, photography company name:- Wi Photography (Instagram Id:- wiphotography official) sharing my journey with all of you. My journey consists of hurdles, failures and smoothness.

Page 10 Spot'less Fashion Magazine| May 2023 | Issue 65 @spotlessfashionmagazine

Here, comes the 1st chapter of my journey, when I decided that I will start my career as a fashion photographer. So, I gave a good eye for detail, a thorough understanding of fashion and design, and the capacity to capture the soul of a brand or product to succeed as a fashion photographer. I work on my communication skills simultaneously in order to collaborate effectively with models, designers, stylists, and other members of the creative team. After completion of the basic its time to make a portfolio for myself. So I approached to various models. So, here’s come the twist. From July 2020, I started approaching to the models. To my 1st approach till my 1st work I approached approximately 20 models but none replied. The major reason behind it is that at that time I don’t have any business account in any of the social media and I don’t have any work of myself to show the others or more specially the models. When I didn’t get any support for the models I approached to the modelling agencies. They told me that they will help me with model, makeup artist, designer, studio etc .When they tell me the rate of the shoot, I got shocked. There budget is exceeding mine. On the other hand, I keep on trying to contact the models. Unfortunately I can’t. Then, I decided that I will take the help of the modelling agencies, as the time is passing away. Suddenly, a miracle happens a model named Shree Mandal (Instagram Id:- shree_officialid) response in my message. I told her everything and she helped me with 1 extra model, makeup artist, studio and dress. And then I shoot the 1st shoot in fashion photography on 24/03/2022. After that I made a name of my photography company and the name is Wi Photography.

Now, comes the 2nd chapter of my journey. When I am doing regular personal shoots in different fashion categories and with different models, one day Shree told me to send the pictures to the international magazines. Because, she knew that the pictures will get selected. I was undoubtful at that time. But she urged me to do it. So, just for trial I send some pictures to a international magazine name VIGOUR. And lucky my pictures got selected. And from there the addiction of doing editorial photoshoot comes in action. I started doing editorial shoot and submitted my pictures in different international magazines like VIGOUR, UNTOLD, LE DESIR, MAKEDA etc. Some pictures got acceptance and got published whereas , some pictures got rejection. The rejection energies me to work hard, to innovate new concepts, idea etc.

My 3rd chapter or rather the final chapter till now consists of lots of achievement. In this 1 year of my fashion photography journey I achieved a lot. I got photography work different foreign companies. Some I got directly and some through viz. I did still photography for a YouTube fashion video. I also did a photoshoot of the cover page of an international magazine.

In conclusion, my journey in the fashion industry was filled with both struggles and achievements. Actually fashion photography is a highly competitive field and requires a unique set of skills and knowledge. Photographers who wants to choose to pursue this career must be willing to work hard, deliver results quickly, and continuously improve their skills to stay ahead of the competition. However, the rewards can be significant, and with talent, hard work, and perseverance, a photographer can achieve great success in the world of fashion photography.

TANU AGARWAL

INFLUENCER
Page 15 Spot'less Fashion Magazine| May 2023 | Issue 65 @spotlessfashionmagazine
@officialtanu.a

I was born in a large family settled in a small town located near the city of nawabs, Lucknow Early childhood and teenage were spent in different locations like Mumbai, Kolkata, Delhi etc, which introduced me to various cultures and lifestyles From an early age, my dreams and aspirations were a bit different from that of my siblings Learning new skills always attracted me, be it dancing, cooking, stitching or interior decoration After education, I have worked in dance, fashion design, interior decoration and modelling assignments

Fashion has always had a special place in my heart, right from the time when I was a small girl looking with my wide eyes the glittering dresses adorning the mannequins in shops Since the age of 19, I have done some odd fashion assignments but never in a planned manner The lockdown gave me the time to retrospect, plan and research That is when I seriously planned to start my Instagram page as a Creator and Influencer in the world of Fashion and Beauty products The digital space gives you a lot of flexibility, creative space and unparalleled reach

Page 16 Spot'less Fashion Magazine| May 2023 | Issue 65 @spotlessfashionmagazine

What do I think influences consumer behavior?

Aspiration plays a big role in shaping Consumer Behaviour specially among millennials and Gen Zers

What is my idea of success?

My mantra in life has always been one, never let success get into your head and never let failure bury you down

How would I distinguish the term blogger from an influencer?

For me a blogger is someone who creates or brings content to people through different platforms with a purpose to influence their mindset, whereas an influencer is someone who may just walk into a party with a stylish clutch bag, catch attention of people and inadvertently becoming an influencer.

Is it financially sustainable to be an influencer/model today?

Yes, it is, provided one is ready to go through the grind and work really really hard with passion and proper planning

How can someone become a successful social media influencer/model?

To be a successful social media influencer/model the most important thing to be updated with the latest trends. Your followers will remain engaged with you only if you are able to provide them a headstart. Other than that, regular interaction, review and making your presence felt is also important

Which is my favorite book and why?

That’s a tough one I personally have a liking for autobiographies as I find them immensely motivating and inspiring Few of my favourites are Long Walk to Freedom by Nelson Mandela, The Diary of a Young Girl by Anne Frank and Open by Andre Agassi (p s I had a huge crush on him)

Most people feel that beauty pageants are just a platform to showcase physical beauty But in my opinion, these pageants are a lot more than just that! Beauty pageants teach the contestants some valuable lessons about life.

From all my experience gathered over the years as a beauty pageant organizer and Jury member, I can confidently say that these pageants transform the girls into confident, intelligent girls who are all ready to face the world.

So, if you are a youngster looking at boosting your confidence levels, developing a positive attitude, and improving your communication skills, I reckon you must, at least once in your life, participate in a beauty pageant.

Once you are on that stage, your school grades, qualifications, family background, or financial status don’t matter at all. The only things that matters are your self-confidence and your positive attitude towards life

Why You Should Participate In A Beauty Pageant?

1 Because Everyone Is Beautiful In Their Own Unique Way

Much in contrast to what the perception of ‘beauty is in society, the definition of ‘beauty is a lot more inclusive in the world of ‘beauty pageants’ Thankfully, here, it’s not just about pretty faces, fair complexion, or flawless skin It goes a whole lot deeper than that When it comes to Beauty Pageants, ‘beauty’ is also defined as a reflection of one’s values, thoughts, and attitude It’s not your color, caste, or religion that’ll help you win But your purity of thoughts and internal beauty could definitely take you a long way

2 Beauty Pageants Motivate You To Stay Fit

Beauty Pageants are a whole lot more accepting these days They do not encourage people to change their physical appearances but definitely do emphasize physical fitness They endorse lifestyle changes like eating healthy, waking up early, exercising, yoga, etc It’s an undeniable fact that these lifestyle changes can take not only your physical but also your mental well-being several notches higher

Page 19 Spot'less Fashion Magazine| May 2023 | Issue 65 @spotlessfashionmagazine

3) Because Beauty Pageants Teach You To Compete With Your Own Self

As a mentor and a guide, I always advise my students to compete with their own selves rather than with the other competitors. It’s always good to look within yourselves and find your own strengths and weaknesses. Upgrading your strengths and working on your weaknesses ensures that you transform into a better version of your own selves. I then ask them to look back on their journey from where they started to see how they have been able to improve and prove all the naysayers, along the way, wrong.

4) Because beauty pageants can be life-changing

In my career, I have met so many young girls & boys who would underestimate themselves because they felt they were not ‘good enough as per the parameters set by society Having been called ‘not beautiful enough’ or ‘not intelligent enough for most of their lives had undoubtedly taken a toll on their self-confidence So much so that they would be a nervous wreck if they had to speak on stage for even a minute! The same youngsters completely transformed after being part of beauty pageants! Not just did it drastically boost their confidence levels, but it also remarkably enhanced other skills like communication, leadership, interviews, and poise These attributes not just help you in the pageants world but also in any career option that you would choose in your life

Page 20 Spot'less Fashion Magazine| May 2023 | Issue 65 @spotlessfashionmagazine

5) Beauty Pageants are not meant for Models only

Through this article, I would like to bust one of the biggest myths about beauty pageants which is that ‘beauty pageants are the same as modeling’ Absolutely not! Modeling is a profession Just like medical, engineering, accounting are all professions, so is Modeling. Models get photoshoots done for various brands, shoot commercials and do fashion shows for designers, etc. On the other hand, beauty pageants are open to everyone. You may be a doctor, engineer, model, or student and still participate in a beauty pageant.

My name is Alicja Galant and I am United Kingdom based photographer I was born and raised in Poland I am self-taught photographer and I specialise in painterly maternity, family and children photography.

Photography has always been a vital part time of my life Since experimenting with vintage cameras as a child and going through few youthhood episodes whilst being on the other side of the lenses and modelling I finally took courage to start creating. After few experiments with different types of photography I found my biggest interest in fine art portraiture and retouching which is my greatest adventure so far.

Page 27 Spot'less Fashion Magazine| May 2023 | Issue 65 @spotlessfashionmagazine

I am an introvert and artist at heart. I love being surrounded by nature and this is where I get mostly my inspiration from. I adore shooting outdoors as the nature itself creates the most beautiful background.

My work has been published in several online fashion and children magazines and I have also been marked as top contributor in some photography contests.

I love learning new photography techniques and investing my time in self development. I hope to be achieving my goals very soon whilst watching my business grow

Photographer - Andrea Vagnarelli

It wouldn't be incorrect if I said that I love this art form so much that words can't adequately describe it. My preferred form of artistic expression is photography. I use it to share my viewpoint with the world and let others know how I see things. I enjoy taking images of the world, from breathtaking landscapes to the occasional gorgeous family portrait!

It might surprise you to learn that I still occasionally experience my worries as a photographer even now. Beginner photographers often struggle, especially when they want to take stunning pictures but don't know how. But if you stay on course and follow your heart, I'm positive you'll develop a passion for photography like I did.You will acquire a strong eye for seeing minute changes in the environment as a photographer. Even if nothing in your immediate environment changes significantly or obviously, each day will be an opportunity to discover something new. That's what makes photography so lovely! You can use your camera to take pictures of the limitless opportunities that it offers up. The particulars are everything.

Page 35 Spot'less Fashion Magazine| May 2023 | Issue 65 @spotlessfashionmagazine

Photography is my love because, until you get that perfect photo, it feels like an impossible undertaking. When you're just starting out, you picture the photo in your head, but the camera doesn't record it that way The procedure soon turns frustrating at that point However, the same challenge becomes gratifying once you learn to manipulate your composition, change the parameters in your favour, and avoid letting your anxieties overcome you

It's one of the main factors in why most people adore pictures. They have the ability to replay a joyful memory However, it has a distinct significance for photographers More than only the scene in the picture is remembered from their successfully caught snap. They adore the sensation of the photographed image

Every photographer loves their craft for a varied variety of reasons. Others use their cameras to record the amazing beauty of nature, while some people enjoy to photograph their family's best moments. Whatever you decide to photograph, it's a creative endeavour that will benefit you in many ways.

We all have had playful desires to become someone when we were kids. But thoughts change, likes and dislikes change too, and likewise from a very early age I wanted to become a successful model. The world of fashion and glamour ignites within me an immeasurable passion– passion to face the camera and get creative with all sorts of stylish costumes and high-definition make-overs. As every other girl, I was always fascinated at the thought of getting stylishly decked up with a touch of glossy makeover and clicked by a professional fashion photographer. Of course, who does not like the idea of getting featured in a fashion magazine!

Having said that, I have been on the cover of a French magazine and also been part of several global fashion magazines. Even though these publications are the stepping stones towards my goal but I wouldn’t term any of these as a major turning point of my modelling career.

Although I didn’t have the chance to formally live my dreams, I do practice modelling now as a hobby and therefore plan to take it forward with good opportunities at the door.
