Nishi

Sasural Simar ka 2, actor Nishi Singh asserts that the industry gives all newcomers a equal chance to prove themselves and calls herself the best example in the scenaro

“When I landed here from MP, I was naïve I had no idea how auditions go, or what is an intro and profile I learnt it all on the go Today, after six years here I can say that if you have that light in you, the industry does accept and provide you with an apt opportunity to find your feet,” says the Yeh Un Dinon Ki Baat Hai and Bado Bahu actor.

Recalling her first day in Mumbai, Singh says, “For me, it was all about fulfilling my uncountable dreams be it becoming an actor or meeting superstar Salman Khan. I remember I waited for him outside his house the whole day when I landed in Mumbai. I couldn’t meet him then but today I’m here working in the same industry so in a way my dreams are getting rewarded. At present, I am all prepared to explore more options and work with bigger actors. I think it’s time to take chances in a big way. With new platforms in focus and high demand of content I think there is umpteen work for all.” Currently seen in a daily soap Singh adds, “I have tried films, I have an OTT series Ishqiyoun in post production and I am busy with my TV daily Sasural Simar Ka 2 where I am playing a lead antagonist. It’s really good to be able to bring so many variations in all my characters. At this point of time when things are slow I have good projects in hand and I’m constantly taking a step further towards my goal.”

“For now, I feel things are going fine and I am sure that it will only get better from here as I am giving my all to my work. For a teenager who came here to find life has her career in place and that’s a gratifying feeling for me,” concludes Singh

My story in fashion is short but intense. I work around 3 to 5 years. First I worked only with photographers for free. It took a long time to find my first real job. I was very nervous but after all I was very happy. After this I knew I want to do more than fashion photos. I met the best photographer in my life with awesomes ideas. We started working toghether around 2 years ago and after this time our work was published at Australian, Italy and Japanese photomagazines and in Spot'less Fashion Magazine in March edition with my photographer. I was find my way in photomodeling and I really love to do portraits, playing with emotions on my face and show someone history through my deep eyes. Don't give up and chase your dreams.

proud owner

A fashion designer and a stylist by profession, my journey in the fashion world started very early in my life As a young girl, I always wanted to stand out with my fashion style and create my own identity. That made me experiment with clothes and accessories, and create different styles to look outstanding

I earned my post graduate degree in Fashion Designing from NIFD institute and began my dream career as a Fashion Designer Over the years, I have put multiple exhibitions and my designs have dressed numerous beautiful women.

As a mother of two toddlers, although I slowed down a bit on my exhibitions but I never stopped enhancing my creative abilities. To upgrade my skills, I did an advanced course in Fashion Designing under the renowned Mr. Manish Malhotra, in addition to a course in Fashion Styling from London School of Trends

My hard work, expertise and strong manifestation paid off when I had the honor of designing for the most beautiful and elegant Mrs India World, Ms Aditi Govitrikar Since then there was no looking back for me and my career reached new heights in this super glamorous world of fashion shows and celebrity designing. I am currently designing outfits for Ms International World Singapore 2022 for her pageant in October where she will be representing Singapore in the USA. I am goin to attend an awards night in Dubai and will be a personal designer for the ever gorgeous Mandira Bedi

I am extremely honored to have received multiple prestigious awards as a designer, from "�������� ���������������� ���� ������ ��������" to "������ �������� ����������������������������������" I have also been on jury panel for multiple fashion shows

I truly love my work from my heart and this star studded, sparking world of fashion, beauty and glamour is my dream place to be From designing clothes for celebrities to being a judge on fashion shows, my journey has been truly amazing.

I believe in empowering women by helping them connect with their inner selves through my unique designs And I live by, "If you can dream it, you can do it"...

Tapas

A model is a person who poses or displays for purposes of art, fashion, or other products and advertising Modeling is distinguished from other types of public performance, such as an acting, dancing or mime artistry, although the boundary is not well defined Appearing in a movie or a play is generally not considered to be modeling, regardless of the nature of the role However, many models can also describe themselves as actors Fashion modeling is similar to acting, as the models have to express an emotion and feeling in their photographs

TypesOF M o d e l s

Fashion models are used mainly to promote products (primarily clothing and accessories but almost anything else as well) There are two types of fashion models: high fashion and commercial High fashion modeling is an art form of fashion The photographer photographs the model in artistic themes that relate to the clothing promoted The model uses their face and body to express different emotions required High fashion is typical for work on campaigns, collections and magazine editorials for high fashion designers These models are featured in high fashion magazines such as Vogue, W and ELLE Clothing designers traditionally show their new collections in an annual fashion show, for buyers, the fashion industry, and the general public Fashion models walk the runway, and pose to display clothing High fashion models are generally 5 ft 9 in to 6 ft tall and are a very thin size 0 4 (105 107 lb for a 5 ft 9 in model) They generally have 32 35" busts, 22 25" waists and 33 36" hips High fashion models have strong, unique and distinctive features Commercial modeling is generally respected less than high fashion modeling There are different forms of commercial modeling: catalogue, cosmetics, commercial print, and swimsuit Catalogue models vary from height and weight, compared to high fashion models Unlike high fashion models, commercial models include plus size models The size of the model depends on the clothing i e Plus sized models model for plus sized clothing These models appear in catalogues Cosmetics models model for makeup companies such as Revlon and Maybelline Unlike catalogue models, the majority of cosmetics models have high fashion modeling body requirements Cosmetics models work for television commercials, magazine advertisements, newspaper advertisements, and billboards Commercial print models promote clothing/products on billboards, buses, magazines and newspapers Swimsuit models promote swimsuit clothing in magazine ads, calenders, and magazines

"Runway modeling," also known as "catwalk modeling," is displaying fashion, and is generally performed by "fashion models "

Supermodels are highly paid, top fashion models. These models have done every type of fashion modeling with great success. These female/male celebrity models have appeared on top fashion magazine covers, in catalogues, walked for top fashion shows, and are muses to photographers and designers. Supermodels are paid over tens of thousands of dollars every day, even for a simple photo shoot (photography session). The first model to pave the way for what would become the supermodel was Lisa Fonssagrives[1]. The relationship between her image on over 200 Vogue covers and her name recognition led to the future importance of Vogue in shaping future supermodels. Fonssagrives at the height of her career could be both sophisticated and yet a cook, with which every American woman could identify. Her image appeared on cover of every fashion magazine during the 1930s, 1940s and 1950s from Town & Country, Life and Vogue to the original Vanity Fair.

Notable supermodels include Beverly Peele, Gisele Bündchen, Christie Brinkley, Naomi Campbell, Cindy Crawford, Janice Dickinson, Heidi Klum, Elle Macpherson, Kate Moss, Claudia Schiffer, Cheryl Tiegs and Twiggy.

I come from Poland in Łódź I have became interested in photography since I was teenager. I started at analogy photography and I spent long hours in the darkroom Although I completed postgraduate studies in photography in Poland, I owe myself learning photography to a large extent. Experience is very important, I have been dealing with photography for over 20 years, but for 7 years as a full time job. It was the most important step, when I started photography as a fulltime job. As they say: Practice makes perfect I have a studio where I take photo sessions for my clients, mostly female and family portraits. People often called my photography magic, but I don't see any magic I hope it is varied and sometimes interesting. I seek inspiration everywhere in my life, in art, nature and people. I love a varied light source. I work with both daylight and flash. In my work, I value the need for constant creativity and continuous development. And I really enjoy working with people.

Debarghya Mukherjee

YOURJOURNEYTO THEWORLDOF PHOTOGRAPHY BEGAN?

My name is Debarghya Mukherjee I am a creative and art photographer from India, my photographic journey started with a vision of expressing myself Visual art and its different forms are always a very interesting subject to me, I used to be a self taught painter, but couldn t continue and then I jumped into photography after many years And some way around it changed my life Photography gave me freedom to express myself in many ways

I used to teach in school and colleges and then started my own business and became so busy with life that made me depressed, and one day my wife asked me to spend a few hours with something that interested me, something out of my regular routine Then I started photography and everything changed

I always feel that we all have something deep inside that we either want to paint or want to write because creativity is natural human instinct Music painting photography etc are different mediums to express such inner thought And in my case photography is that medium that gives me freedom to express my inner thoughts As I am from a computer science background, digital processing gave me an extra advantage I started following works of many famous visual artists, and developed my own style of art But sometimes I feel an artist cannot be settled maybe it’s my style right now maybe I can change myself completely in a couple of years it all depends on my state of mind

HOWWOULDYOU DESCRIBEYOUR STYLE?

I am a creative portrait photographer

Although few of my landscape photos got awards from different competitions I personally like to call myself a creative portrait artist and a visual storyteller I am very interested in the human face and emotions, I always wanted to tell a story using a human so most of my works are involved with humans, some works are straight fashion shots but some tell a deep story of human mind and dream I also do surrealism works, there is a huge use of digital art form in my works

WHOSEWORKHAS INFLUENCEDYOUTHEMOST?

WHATAREYOUR INSPIRATIONS?

Paintings are my inspiration I thoroughly study old paintings a lot I study paintings for their philosophy How they used color and what is the meaning And I think photography is just another type of painting in a different medium They paint with brush and color we paint with lights

When I started photography, I was vigorously searching for works of master photographers, and somewhere I read that all started with paintings that triggered me Rembrandt’s work has a lot of impact on my works His lighting technique as well as use of color and style of his subjects almost everything helped me to think about things differently Indian painter Raja Ravi Varma is another mentionable name whose works inspired me a lot

think almost all my works

but few works are always special for any photographer I had a series of Indo European style it is very special for me Maybe the reason is painting I widely used my understanding of

color theory and lights of old masters, in this series Many commented and asked how I did this, my answer is always the same, tribute to old paintings

ready for any jobs and all how a photographer can get success

takes time to develop

own style and philosophy of works When I also started I was in a hurry towards success I was studying, doing lots of shoots, later I understood, I need to learn things differently after huge practice only you can get a master of lights

Angelina Startseva

My name is Angelina Startseva I am an art photographer living in Russia The idea to do photography did not come to me immediately For a long time I wanted to be an artist When my husband gave me my first camera, I began to look at art with different eyes In photography, I like to reveal a person, to show a piece of a person's soul! I really love emotional photos!

It doesn't matter if it's a fairy tale story about a fictional character, a street story, a family photo or an aesthetic frame it's important for me that a person lives emotions as an actor! Even at the stage of choosing a photo shoot, I communicate with a person and try to understand which photo shoot will be closer for him Individual approach! He is very important!

Photography is my outlet This is my opportunity to show the world as I see it The opportunity to create a fairy tale in gray everyday life, add bright colors to someone's life, cheer up, change his present day! It doesn't matter what kind of art we do what matters is what it means to us! For me, a photo is a piece of my heart, my world, my inner self!

BRAND BLUESTONE'S FIRST-EVER

CAMPAIGN SAYS 'LOVE IS IN THE LITTLE THINGS'

Bluestone, one of India's largest omnichannel fine jewellery brands, announces the launch of their latest TVC campaign, 'Love is in the Little Things', featuring an exclusive range of innovative, exquisite watch jewellery. The brand stands out in a flurry of festive messaging by featuring a clutter breaking category. BlueStone highlights the small moments that make a relationship shine rather than focusing on grand romantic gestures

Fine watch jewellery exists at the intersection of technology and fitness, both a ubiquitous part of contemporary lifestyles Since all smartwatches look relatively the same, this category of charm like pieces allows consumers to flaunt their individuality and doubles up as an excellent gifting option, helping one build a stylish collection that matches their many moods

The TVC captures the story of a couple, a wife who is a seasoned runner and a husband who isn't as active, both completing a marathon Having finished, we see the wife seek out her partner, who appears exhausted yet ecstatic to cross the finish line Struggling to catch his breath, he pulls out something from his pocket and attaches it to her smartwatch Surprised, the woman curiously looks at the unique piece of watch jewellery on her wrist one meant to be a memento commemorating their first marathon together denoting that love is in the little things

Speaking on the launch, Harshna Pasari, Head of Marketing, BlueStone, said, "Predominantly, the romance we see depicted is one of over the top fairy tales. But real relationships are built on small, intimate moments rather than grand gestures. That's what we want to capture in our messaging a reassuring touch, reliable routines, and little yet meaningful gifts like watch jewellery that keep the romance alive and kicking The featured category furthers our storytelling at a time when other brands are talking about heavy, festive collections that modern couples are increasingly moving away from Today, the consumer demands jewellery for everyday wear for the wardrobe, not the locker and BlueStone is here to satiate their desires "

“The product is so fresh; it made us want to place it in an equally fresh human context ‘Love Is In The Little Things’ was born from that The film, print ads and all other assets bring this to life in their own, unique way The narrative feels fresh, yet remains rooted in truth ” said Arvind Krishnan and Prajato Guha, Founders at Manja, the Creative Agency who led the campaign's conceptualisation

The 360 degree campaign will be featured across television, OTT, print, in cinema, social media and other digital platforms Building an endless aisle across their website, app, and 100+ stores nationwide, the brand's watch jewellery category has over 100 designs across three variants pins, bands, and charms allowing anyone with a smartwatch to subtly express their styles across a price range of ₹4500 to over ₹110000

BlueStone, founded in Bangalore in 2011, is one of India's largest omnichannel fine jewellery brands The culmination of a rapidly evolving consumer preference to shop online and the legacy jewellery industry's low digital adoption, the trusted brand is synonymous with modernity and digitisation

BlueStone has revolutionised the jewellery space by creating an endless aisle online with experiential stores offline, delivering a seamless omnichannel journey for cosmopolitan couples Their proprietary tech stack enables consumers to customise their purchases from design to delivery, thus making the brand an intimate part of celebrating momentous milestones

With over 100 retail stores nationwide, BlueStone has satiated the customers' desires by crafting an endless aisle of exclusive designs across 100+ collections each with its own unique story and inspiration

The Banjara (also known as, Vanzara, Labana, Lambadi) are a historically nomadic trading caste who may have origins in the Mewar region of what is now Rajasthan

The Banjaras usually refer to themselves as Gor and outsiders as Kor but this usage does not extend outside their own community A related usage is Gor Mati or Gormati, meaning Own People. Motiraj Rathod believes that the community became known as banjara from around the fourteenth century AD and but previously had some association with the Laman, who claim a 3000 year history

Banjaras were historically pastoralists, traders , expert breeders and transporters of goods on the inland regions of India, for which they used boats, carts, camels, oxen, donkeys and sometimes the relatively scarce horse, hence controlling a large section of trade and economy.

Gour Banjaras have a unique cultural life and practices that differentiate them from others They also have their own language, food habits, body tattooing, dress and ornaments, art and dance and festivals and ceremonies, which have formed their culture Gor Banjara culture includes their language, costume, marriage customs, festivities, folk and performing arts and many other capabilities acquired by them

Like always it was a magical experience to work with “ABHISHEK GOSWAMI” for our October edition

We have been working with “THE VISION MASTER” for a year now; it’s like a privilege to see him working and witnessing the genius of the visionary himself, while the idea being executed with perfection in all accepts weather be it technical, aesthetic or philosophical expressions To be honest he is a powerhouse of so many talents In our every edition he has always created something new for our readers Every concept that he created has always been unique and original His artworks not only showcase aesthetic beauty but also express emotions, philosophy and the “art of living” This time he chose the concept of love “PREM RAS EXPLORING THE PHENOMENON” which is amazingly such a pure and beautiful expression

Each and every picture captured by him is a gem He has depicted unconditional love in each and every capture. His artworks be it paintings or photographs has always rendered hope for living

It’s always so special to see him giving life to his concepts, the way he uses each and every relevant element in his conceptual photography brings the best outcome. It’s always a great pleasure talking with ABHISHEK GOSWAMI and understanding the thought process behind his concepts & the process of execution It was really an enlightening experience to get insights from “THE VISION MASTER” himself. Hope you will enjoy knowing more about him

What is the meaning of “PREM RAS EXPLORING THE PHENOMENOM” for you?

Love is a wonderful experience When we are in that state of mind, unknowingly & unintentionally we are in a pleasurable and blissful state Our mind and body feels a sense of fullness & nourishment with in itself, like when we feel sustenance as of ingestion of food with high satiety value And here in this case the source is already within our own mind and thus, this source is what I termed as PREM RAS (last extract) This is something which occurs and not like a practice we have to do or we have to plan to, that’s why when we experience the phenomenon within our mind, only then we can observe & explore this most beautiful essence of life

How you chose the elements to be shown in your visual outcomes for expressing your vision about the subject?

When the idea of expressing this experience came in my mind, I thought about various themes & plots as examples to depict the philosophy I chose a few of them as per the technical & aesthetic practicality And I decided the elements as per the chosen ones Like to showcase the aspect of love for whole universe/existence; I decided to use plants as an element being loved by a person who is in this caring & accepting state of mind for all creatures equally This person seems to be in utmost pleasure & peace while experiencing the phenomenon and his actions are accordingly
