A Star Unparalleled - Nandish Singh Sandhu by Akshay T S A Star Unparalleled - Nandish Singh Sandhu 7 June 2023 COVER STORIES Advertisement He was already a Television Star—and then he became Jamshed Khan in Jubilee. Inside the stupendous rise of Nandish Sing Sandhu. In this L'utopia exclusive, we sit with the gallant Nandish Singh Sandhu. After his iconic performance playing Jamshed Khan. Nandish aims to triumph by playing flawed characters who are true to themselves. We kickstart by asking him to describe his life using a film title: "It would definitely be Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara. I have always believed that you should have no regrets in life. You should try everything. At the same time, not be dependent or addicted to anything." Nandish fondly expresses his life philosophy through living to the fullest, doing what he feels like doing, and making the best out of it. With an excellent performance in his resume from Jubliee, we couldn't resist asking Nandish about his favorite genres to act in: "Well, my favorite genre would be definitely drama, wherein we talk about human emotions like love, courage, humor, anger, and whatnot." He treasures characters that are an enigmatic blend, who are absolutely flawed and can be their true selves. He believes these characters are more vital than the mere depiction of heroism. Beyond acting Apart from acting, traveling gets his blood pumped up. And recently, Nandish has also added a keen interest in the stock market, which he relays as a fascinating subject to ponder. The Fitness Mantra Sharing his perspective on Fitness, Nandish believes in treating it as a lifestyle rather than a hectic chore. He emphasizes Fitness, especially after this pandemic. "In today's world, many young people are affected due to the lack of physical activity. It's happening all around us. And people really need to take care of their bodies. I'm not talking about bodybuilding or musclebuilding. It's only about your physical well-being." he also advocates for food consciousness, "you're the kind of food that you eat because there's adulteration and pesticides in the foods we consume." Fitness should become imperative. Trailing the career Reflecting on his acting career from television to Jubilee, he is extremely grateful for an impeccable ride. Highlighting his growth and learning experience along the way, Nandish is living the dream! Working with the directors he dreamt of, he has materialized his dreams. Attesting to a very successful television career, he says, "At the end of the day, I'm doing the same thing what I used to do back then in television, passionately filling the soul of the character and becoming that person in front of the camera." Jubliee: A grand sensation Enduring the grand success of Jubilee, he says, "Everybody is saying good things about the show, whether it's the regular audience or fraternity critics. Everybody has good things to say." He exalts and credits his great team, Vikramaditya Motwane, his director, and his costars for the success. "We all put in our blood and sweat literally into this, and so much of the time has gone in the making and—the show to do so well and being appreciated. It feels great. There's no better feeling." Heaping praises for his performance as Jamshed Khan, he reveals what he loves about his character. Listing his admiration, he wholeheartedly cherishes the attitude of Jamshed Khan: He adds, " Jamshed Khan knows his talent, he's got that arrogance in him, which I think is extremely attractive, and I just love that." Sound Suggestion Passionately professing his only motto as a shared experience, Nandish says, "Don't take advice from anybody, do what feels good for yourself, do what satisfies your soul, and that is the only thing that matters." From a decade of television performance to mainstream conviction, Nandish is a gallant actor and a star in his own right. With his outstanding performance in Jubilee, Nandish Singh Sandu is committed to ascending to greater heights.

Neon Nights And Yellow Lights: The Sonic World Of Natania Lalwani By Shriniwas Kodape Neon Nights And Yellow Lights: The Sonic World Of Natania Lalwani 30 April 2025 COVER STORIES Advertisement I’ve always believed that music — the good kind, the gut-punch kind — is made by people who don’t quite belong anywhere. People with one foot in the door, one foot out on the fire escape, ready to bolt the minute the conversation gets boring. And somewhere out there in that beautifully disoriented space lives Natania Lalwani . Now, here’s a voice that doesn’t just drift through your headphones. No, this is the kind of voice that crawls up the back of your neck, plants itself in your bloodstream, and stays there. It’s not clean, it’s not tidy, and thank god for that. It’s jagged, restless, dipped in heartbreak and late-night neon, like a love letter you’re too afraid to send. Born in the buzzing chaos of Mumbai and living under the hazy sun-bleached sprawl of Los Angeles, Natania’s music exists in a place where maps don’t work. You can try to pin her down with genre labels, diaspora clichés, Spotify playlist tags — go ahead, the industry certainly has — but she’ll slip through your fingers every damn time. And that, dear reader, is exactly why we wanted her in this issue. We live in a time when too many artists are pre-packaged, algorithm-approved, made for TikTok virality, and 30-second hooks. Everything is safe, synthetic, and sterilized for mass consumption. But Natania’s work? It bleeds. It bruises. It sounds like somebody is still chasing the ghost of their younger self down rain-slick streets. Her track “Gulzar” isn’t just a song — it’s a mood, a state of mind, the soundtrack to those hazy, half-remembered conversations with people you’ll probably never see again. Pro Tip: Don’t play “Gulzar” when you’re trying to be emotionally numb. It has a way of cracking something open in you — making you feel like you’ve stumbled onto the closing scene of a film you didn’t know you were starring in. Don’t say we didn’t warn you. What gets me — what always gets me — is that she’s not trying to be anything other than what she is. A woman caught between cities, between identities, between the version of herself the world expects and the one she’s still figuring out. And she’s making art in that blurred space, turning confusion into melody, fear into rhythm. That’s not just music. That’s survival. Before the label deals, the TV soundtracks , the ad campaigns and the Spotify checks, it was just her — a girl in her bedroom with a guitar, a laptop, and a head full of sounds no one else could hear yet. That’s the stuff we should be chasing. The raw, unfinished, stubbornly personal things. The kind of music you play alone at night, long after the city’s gone to sleep, when it’s just you and whatever ghosts you haven’t managed to shake. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RroQRrzymEg This feature isn’t here to slap a ‘next big thing’ sticker on her. Screw that. It’s here because in a year where everything feels engineered and overproduced, Natania Lalwani reminds us that some things still come from the gut, from the dark, from the unlit corners of our heads where the good stories hide. Side Note: If you’re wondering why we’re so obsessed with this " gut instinct " thing, it’s because in a world where everyone’s selling something, it’s the only thing that’s still free. She’s not just making Indian pop music. Or LA indie pop. Or cross-cultural, genre-bending “content.” She’s making Natania music . And that’s exactly what we need. So raise a glass, light a cigarette, put on the record, whatever your vice — and listen closely. The in-between never sounded this good. — Shriniwas Kodape, L’utopia Magazine SEARCH A Journey Shaped By Courage, Creativity, And Social Media With Aditi Sharma COVER STORIES Inner Joy Trails My Inspiration : A Candid Conversation With The Creative Anushka Kaushik COVER STORIES Barkha Singh’s candid candour makes the way to an eye-catching interview COVER STORIES Educate, Empower, Excel: Priyanka Chahar Choudhary's Inspirational Overture COVER STORIES Waluscha De Sousa On Being Her ‘True Self’ And Going On The Dream Journey COVER STORIES POPULAR POSTS Advertisement Advertisement Advertisement By Sakshi Shah The Many Chapters Of Lekha Prajapati, From Performer To Storyteller 6 July 2026 COVER STORIES By Sakshi Shah Across Languages, One Voice: Sheena Chohan 1 April 2026 COVER STORIES By Sakshi Shah Mananveer Singh On Making Music That Feels Natural And Real 24 March 2026 COVER STORIES By Sakshi Shah Falak Khan On Acting, Identity, And Letting Her Work Speak For Itself 9 March 2026 COVER STORIES RELATED POSTS Advertisement Advertisement Advertisement

The Modernity Of The Fashion Sphere by Shreya Satish Jorapur The Modernity Of The Fashion Sphere 19 February 2023 FASHION Advertisement Advertisement Advertisement Glamour, grandeur, glory… The fashion industry encapsulates these three G’s in an intriguing way, which has gradually integrated into our persistent everyday culture too. People are consistently amazed by the extravagance of fashion show, the models, the intricate designs, and their way of living. However, there are two sides of every coin and so is the case here. On the flip side of beauty lies all the perseverance and hardships that lead to it. Let’s discuss the multitude of aspects involved in this industry, assessing the repercussions and effects alike. The treatment of models in the industry is a conflict-inducing topic which can not be generalized. Acknowledgement of the body image issues, disordered eating behaviours, and mental turmoil that accompanies the occupation is very important. The repetitive cycles and beliefs that are ingrained in these models can be detrimental to their journey. In recent times, such issues have been brought to light and attempts towards redemption are being made by companies and authorities. Appreciable steps have been taken regarding inclusivity of gender, race, and body types. There is a plethora of diversity that can be observed in the ramps of today- walkers of different nationalities, identities, and bodies are celebrated and recognized in a widespread manner. Fashion represents cultures and creates a symphony. Heritage and history are also components in fashion. The efficiency, and most importantly, creativity of designers is showcased amazingly. ‘Over the Top’ and ‘Camp’ themes are in trend recently. Along with this, people have become more open to gender-neutral clothing and non-rigidity in fashion. Innovation plays a key role in keeping the audience engaged. Designers and distributers are assured in the popularity of non-conventional styles which majorly appeal to the youth of the time. Fashion has become a form of self expression too. Thousands of people use their clothing, accessories, and even make-up related endeavours to express their convictions, orientations, solidarities and distinct styles. It is an inclusive resort to tangible expressions of the self. Fashion can also be viewed as an art form. It stems from creativity, it blooms into something physical, and causes impression and amusement. Sometimes, even a pleasant overwhelm. The fashion industry has a growing scope for careers and educaton too. Students majoring in fashion for their degrees have multiple opportunities to flourish and prove themselves, be it amidst the public eye or behind the scenes. It is an impressive and unique path to lead towards. Events like the Met Gala, the Paris Fashion Week, and many others around the world provoke demand. Also, personality and beauty pageants like Miss Universe, Miss World, etc, along with their national level counterparts are huge factors too. Movies like ‘Fashion’ by Madhur Bhandarkar explore the personal journeys of models, designers, company leaders, and more, It is a well-rounded and eye-opening narration. Another movie with a personal narration of a prominent name and luxurious brand is ‘Coco Before Chanel’. The song ‘Victoria’s Secret’ by Jax is a call-out to the harmful standards and detections set up. It highlights the ‘Heads’ of the coin. Meanwhile, songs similar to ‘Fashion’ by Lady Gaga focus on the confidence and flair that fashion can ignite, representing the ‘Tails’ of the coin. There are several different aspects to this sector. Though it is not perfect, it does play a significant role in society and is of great influence to certain demographics.

A Century Of Precision: Meet The All-New Breitling Navitimer B19 By Anushka Uniyal A Century Of Precision: Meet The All-New Breitling Navitimer B19 14 March 2025 FASHION Advertisement Advertisement Advertisement Some watches are just, well–watches. And then there’s the Breitling Navitimer , a legend in aviation timekeeping that’s been turning heads for over 70 years. It’s the kind of watch that isn’t just about telling time, it’s about heritage, precision and a design that never goes out of style. Now, Breitling is stepping things up with the Navitimer B19 Perpetual Calendar Chronograph—a watch so advanced, you could almost say it keeps time forever. With its ice-blue dial, platinum bezel, and Breitling’s first-ever perpetual calendar chronograph movement, this isn’t just another release—it’s a statement piece, built to stand the test of time. So, What’s New? If you know the Navitimer, you know its signature look: the circular slide rule, the chronograph function, the sleek design that pilots and collectors alike have obsessed over since 1952. But this new edition? It’s something else. For the first time, the Navitimer gets a perpetual calendar chronograph movement—the Caliber B19. What does that mean for you? Well, this watch knows exactly how many days are in each month (even in leap years) and won’t need any major manual adjustments for 100 years. Yes, you read that right. One hundred years. A Cool Classic In Blue Let’s talk about looks. The Navitimer B19 comes dressed in a stunning ice-blue dial that plays with the light in all the right ways! It’s framed by a sleek platinum bezel, tucked into a 43mm stainless steel case that feels just right on the wrist. Flip it over and you get a see-through case back because let’s be honest, who wouldn’t want to admire the magic happening inside? It also comes with two strap options: A black alligator leather strap (for that classic, sophisticated feel). A seven-row stainless steel bracelet (for a sleek, modern look). Whether you’re dressing up in a sharp suit or just keeping it casual on the weekend, this watch is going to look straight-up amazing on your wrist! Built To Last (Literally) Let’s get geeky for a second. Breitling’s Caliber B19 movement is COSC-certified, meaning it has passed some of the toughest accuracy tests in the industry. It also has a 96-hour power reserve, so even if you take it off for a few days, it’ll still be ticking when you put it back on. And here’s the real kicker: the movement undergoes an intense 16-year aging simulation before hitting the market. We’re talking 100,000 crown winds, 3.4 million weight turns, and 60,000 shocks at 500G. This thing is built like a tank—but an incredibly stylish one. Breitling’s Take On It Breitling’s CEO, Georges Kern , puts it best, “It takes a lot for us to use the word ‘icon,’ but the Navitimer has earned it. Combined with the perpetual calendar chronograph movement, the B19 is a tour de force, never missing a beat for a full century. It’s a watch that will keep time for generations.” And honestly? He’s spot on. Final Thoughts This isn’t just a watch—it’s a statement. A conversation starter. A piece of history on your wrist! Whether you’re a longtime Breitling fan or just love fine craftsmanship, the Navitimer B19 Perpetual Calendar Chronograph is something special. If you’ve ever wanted a timepiece built to last for generations, one that keeps ticking for a century, this might be the one. Check it out on Breitling’s official website and see for yourself.

Tej Music Vodka: The DJ Turning Youth Culture Into a Moving Dancefloor By Shriniwas Kodape Tej Music Vodka: The DJ Turning Youth Culture Into a Moving Dancefloor 30 January 2026 COVER STORIES Advertisement In a music landscape driven by immediacy, energy, and emotion, Tej Music Vodka has emerged as a name that refuses to be ignored. Known widely as DJ Tej, he represents a new generation of Indian DJs who understand that music today is not just about sound, but about experience. His rise has been organic, powered by packed dance floors, word of mouth, and a strong digital presence that mirrors his life behind the console. Tej’s journey is rooted in open-format DJing, a style that allows him to move freely between genres without losing the crowd. Bollywood hooks collide with Punjabi rhythms, hip-hop grooves blend into electronic drops, and global dance music finds space alongside Indian melodies. This flexibility is what defines his sets. They are built for people who want to feel included, regardless of their musical background. His performances are designed to keep energy constant, never allowing the room to fall flat, and that instinct has become his signature. With a steadily growing following on Instagram under the handle @ tej.music.vodka , Tej has built a loyal audience that extends far beyond club regulars. His social media is less about spectacle and more about access. Clips from live sets, travel moments, and crowd reactions offer a direct look into his world, creating a sense of familiarity between the artist and his listeners. This connection has helped him cultivate a fan base that actively engages with his work rather than passively consuming it. What sets Tej apart is not just his music selection, but his understanding of space and mood. Whether he is performing at a college festival, a wedding celebration, a nightclub, or a private event, his sets are tailored to the audience in front of him. This adaptability has made him a popular choice across formats and cities. His live performances typically run long and uninterrupted, built on smooth transitions and carefully timed drops that keep dance floors full and restless. Tej’s work has also taken him beyond India. He has performed in international nightlife destinations such as London, Dubai, Thailand, and Australia, bringing an Indian open-format sound to global audiences. These shows have positioned him as one of the younger Indian DJs to consistently perform abroad, reflecting the growing demand for artists who can represent contemporary Indian music culture on international stages. Despite the scale of his performances, Tej’s approach remains grounded. His focus is still on the crowd in front of him, reading their movement, adjusting tempo, and responding in real time. This instinctive connection is what transforms his sets into shared experiences rather than curated playlists. For him, DJing is not about technical display alone, but about creating moments that people remember long after the night ends. As brands, event organizers, and nightlife spaces increasingly look to connect with younger audiences, Tej Music Vodka has become a natural collaborator. His appeal lies in authenticity. He reflects the rhythm of a generation that moves fast, lives online, and values experiences over labels. There is no manufactured image here, only consistency between who he is on stage and who he is off it. Tej’s journey is still unfolding, but his direction is clear. He is not chasing trends, he is responding to people. In a scene crowded with noise, DJ Tej stands out by listening first and playing second. And as long as dance floors continue to move to his sound, his presence in India’s evolving music culture will only grow louder.

Love child of Punk and Scene: Grunge by Neha Pande Love child of Punk and Scene: Grunge 27 July 2020 FASHION Advertisement Advertisement Advertisement If Punk fashion is an ‘anti fashion’ stance or movement then Grunge can be seen as a ‘non fashion’ statement or movement away from the typical sense of fashion set by fashion agencies or designers. Grunge is a love child of Punk and Scene which was also inspired by the comfortable fashion sense of the Hippie era. It was inspired by the dark theme of Punk with the nonchalant and loose fashion of the Hippie, i.e. a comfortable, uncoordinated look with the edgy style of Scene added to it which makes it look appealing. From vintage band tee shirts, flannels, oversized wool Pendletons to chunky Dr. Marten’s combat boots, high-waist jeans or comfortable cargo pants are some of the Grunge essentials. Grunge is an alternative rock music style featuring electric guitars and dragging lyrics. Grunge fashion is a part of grunge music genre and sub culture which started in mid 1980s Seattle and reached its popularity in early 2000s. This fashion is iconic with its durability and timeless thrifting with a vintage style. Celebrities like Kurt Cobain, the singer-guitarist of Nirvana used to wear an oversized striped sweater, ripped jeans, a pair of converse and unkempt hair which influenced grunge fashion. “Grunge has changed over time; flannels and Dr. Martens which were worn as “non fashion” statements have changed into a movement; a fashion statement in itself.” Designers like Marc Jacobs brought grunge to a luxury platform in 1993. He was inspired by his creative director of women’s design at Perry Ellis, debuting a whole spring collection inspired by grunge. A French brand which you all know as Louis Vuitton joined in the grunge fashion statement in 1997. Yet the fashion statement was called “ghastly” and only took off in the 2000s. It soon after became mainstream and made its way to the runways. Soon grunge trademarks like heavy layering, flannels, vintage band tees, Dr. Martens, oversized slouchy sweaters and many more were seen everywhere. Even today grunge fashion is alive but with some alterations and enhancements to aid the modern fashion. This has given birth to a whole new sub-genre of grunge aesthetic i.e. soft grunge, pastel grunge, cute grunge, Indie grunge and vintage grunge. The basic grunge of the 90s was dark and heavily inspired by scene and punk rock while these new genres were inspired by the various aesthetic needs of modern fashion. Grunge as a fashion statement has evolved and now it just doesn’t include dark but has some lighter shades added to its sub genres. It no longer contains just vintage band tees, ripped jeans, oversized sweaters or combat boots but has accommodated skirts, dresses, shorts, crop tops, cargo pants etc. with the basic grunge aesthetics. It’s a medley, mix and match, which is what fashion is. #GrungePunkFashionStatementFashionstatementStyleDesign SEARCH Why does Fashion Need Fashion Shows FASHION From Dreams To Crowns: Anuradha Garg’s Inspiring Mrs. India Story FASHION Colour Psychology in Fashion: Explained FASHION Legendary Female Icons Who Made Fashion Statements In The 20th Century FASHION The House of Chanel: History FASHION POPULAR POSTS Advertisement Advertisement Advertisement By Sakshi Shah Elie Saab H&M Is Bringing The Red Carpet Home 13 September 2026 FASHION By Sakshi Shah The Art Of Resort Dressing, According To Hanne Bloch 30 July 2026 FASHION By Sakshi Shah The New Foundations Of Style, According To Invogue 27 June 2026 FASHION By Sakshi Shah What's The Colour Of My Voice: Inside The Wonderfully Strange World Of Absent Findings' SS27 23 June 2026 FASHION RELATED POSTS Advertisement

Max Fashion Turns 20 At Lakmé Fashion Week, In A Showcase That Felt Instinctive By Sakshi Shah Max Fashion Turns 20 At Lakmé Fashion Week, In A Showcase That Felt Instinctive 7 April 2026 FASHION Advertisement Advertisement Advertisement At Lakmé Fashion Week , some shows make a statement and some feel like a full moment. Max Fashion ’s 20-year celebration was clearly the latter. From the very beginning, the energy was different. The lights dimmed, the music kicked in, and the runway instantly felt less like a traditional show and more like a space for expression. Over 35 looks, the showcase unfolded as a reflection of how young India dresses today, easy, confident, and full of personality. Leading the moment were three distinct faces, Siddhant Chaturvedi , Alaya F , and Kalki Kmoechlin , each bringing their own energy to the runway. Siddhant Chaturvedi opened the show, setting the tone with a presence that felt natural and effortless. As he stepped onto the runway, the mood shifted instantly. It didn’t feel staged, it felt spontaneous, almost like a performance. His walk carried the Urban segment with ease, bringing in a sense of movement and attitude that matched the collection. The momentum carried forward as Alaya F took over. Her energy was sharp, confident, and playful, perfectly in sync with the mood of the showcase. There was a lightness in the way she moved, nothing overdone, just a strong sense of individuality that made the moment feel current and relatable. Siddhant returned for a second walk, this time transitioning into a more relaxed and everyday aesthetic. The shift felt seamless, reflecting the brand’s focus on clothing that moves across moods and moments without effort. And then came the final moment. Kalki Koechlin stepped onto the runway as the showstopper, bringing a completely different energy. Calm, composed, and self-assured, she added a sense of balance to the high-energy showcase. Her presence felt grounded, giving the finale a strong and memorable close. The three came together at the end for a grand finale that felt more like a celebration than a conclusion, bringing the entire mood of the show full circle. At the centre of the showcase was the idea of “Unserious Everything,” a concept that blended fashion with a sense of ease and playfulness. The collection didn’t take itself too seriously, and that’s exactly what made it work. It unfolded across three key directions, Urban, Sports Core, and Core Casual, each offering a different take on everyday style. Urban focused on relaxed summer dressing, with citrus prints, crochet textures, and easy co-ords for women, alongside vintage florals and light silhouettes for men. The pieces felt fresh, easy, and perfect for warm-weather dressing. Sports Core brought in a more energetic, athleisure-driven mood. Cropped fits, oversized tees, and sporty elements gave the collection a youthful edge, while menswear leaned into basketball-inspired graphics and relaxed shapes. Core Casual shifted things into a more refined space, with clean silhouettes, soft cottons, and a palette of blues and whites. It felt simple, wearable, and easy to build into everyday wardrobes. The showcase ended with an Indo-Western fusion moment, where botanical prints and earthy tones added a softer, more styled finish to the lineup. It tied everything together without feeling heavy. What stood out most was how accessible the entire presentation felt. The clothes weren’t just for the runway, they felt made for real life, pieces that could be worn, styled, and reworked in multiple ways. As Max Fashion celebrates 20 years in India, the showcase felt like a reflection of that journey, growing alongside a generation that sees fashion as a form of self-expression rather than just trends. It wasn’t just about marking a milestone, it was about showing where the brand stands today, easy, expressive, and in tune with how people actually dress. And if this runway was anything to go by, the next chapter looks just as exciting.

Building Opportunities And Expanding Horizons: An Interview With Actor Or Writer Meghana Kaushik by Aadhya Venkatesh Building Opportunities And Expanding Horizons: An Interview With Actor Or Writer Meghana Kaushik 30 June 2022 COVER STORIES Advertisement Meghana Kaushik is a multitalented actress and writer who aspires to do great work in the entertainment industry. Wishing to leave her mark, she thrives on the competition she faces. Meghana identifies the kind of work that she needs to do to justify her talent. "As an artist, your goals are clear to you", she says. While speaking about recognizing opportunities, she said that one must always be prepared for the golden opportunity, ready to strike it with complete determination when it does occur. Stemming from the need to create such 'golden opportunities' for herself and others, she began writing for the screen. "As a writer, I can tell stories and narratives that I, as an actor, would like to act in". Meghana also believes that writing stories that she believes in will allow her to talk about subjects that need to be voiced. Meghana comes from theatre and has trained with Barry John as she always believes in improving her craft. Her foray into acting has been a learning curve. Belonging to a family with no connection to the industry, she had to learn everything about the process from scratch. The downside to this is that she has been dropped from many projects because she is not well-connected or comparatively well-known. She hopes that she can eventually work with creators that "cast actors based on their talent instead of social media follower count". Wishing to travel the world with her career, she wants to stand out in her field. She sees herself on the world stage, winning internationally acclaimed awards for her work while simultaneously creating a space of recognition for Indian talent. Currently, she is working on two feature films, one of which she is co-writing. Her inspiration in the field ranges from Madhubala, Waheeda Rehman, Sridevi and Alia Bhatt in the Indian film industry to icons such as Audrey Hepburn, Meryl Streep, Amy Adams, Natalie Portman, and Emily Blunt, amongst others. One of the easiest roles Meghana has played to date has been Nikita from Love, Lust, and Confusion. She believes that the character helped bring out her alter-ego, a person who was free-spirited, fashionable and non-judgmental about life and choices. Meghana strives to be a leader in a world full of followers. She urges those around her to remain positive in their lives and not let our differences and flaws bring us down. She propagates empowerment through acceptance of personal flaws with flair and grace. "Set yourself small goals to start with, and love yourself first" is the mantra she wishes to share. In a message to the youth, she pushes them to take charge and pave the way for the world to become a better place. She champions everyone to use their energies to protect fundamental human rights and promotes education for all. "We always need to be mindful and dream big. It is pertinent that we do not get caught up in mediocrity". All Meghana wants is for people to get over being lazy and take charge of their own lives, ultimately initiating a change that starts at the individual level.

She believes that letting the skin breathe is important. "When you are mentally in a good position, your skin will glow, and your body will be happy".

Waluscha De Sousa On Being Her ‘True Self’ And Going On The Dream Journey by Panav Minocha Waluscha De Sousa On Being Her ‘True Self’ And Going On The Dream Journey 29 December 2022 COVER STORIES Advertisement Waluscha De Sousa is an Indian actress and model who made her debut into Bollywood in the 2016 film Fan. She was recently in the Hindi-language thriller on Sony Liv-Tanaav. Waluscha made her debut into the fashion and modeling industry at the early age of 16. When asked the pros and cons of this early venture into the world of glamour, she replied that she didn’t plan at first to start working at 16. However, she just happened to be discovered at that age by the late fashion designer Wendell Rodricks, and felt extremely fortunate to have worked under his guidance. “He held my hand and never let go. I was very very lucky and very very fortunate to have someone like him (Wendell)”, she said. Having achieved milestones early on in her career, Waluscha mentioned how she became the face of Wendell’s clothing brand, got to be on the cover of a Femina magazine at the age of 17, and starred in a Pepsi commercial with Shah Rukh Khan at the same age. She also talked about how she went onto becoming MTV’s fresh face, and walked in the first Lakm é fashion week in India. She expressed immense gratitude towards Wendell Rodricks for all these achievements. “I owe him so much. So much of what I am today wouldn’t have been possible without him. For me, the journey was smooth with a few bumps along the way, but when I look back I’m just very grateful for having somebody like that in my life.” Waluscha comes from a mixed cultural background, being half Goan-Portuguese (from her father’s side) and half German (from her mother’s side). She was asked how this affected her career, and if it hampered it in any way. Her response: “Yes and no. I inherited my mother’s external appearance. This helped me immensely in the glamour industry. Although, I am inherently very much Indian and I’ve inherited this from my father.” She explained how India and Indian culture played a huge role in her life. “I was born and brought up in India, studied in India, and have my friends and family here.“ On the other hand, Waluscha also talked about some hardships she faced in the film industry. “Unfortunately I didn’t see the same embrace in the film industry. There was this preconceived notion in everybody’s heads that I was not Indian and didn’t speak the language, or I’m not desi, when it’s actually quite the contrary.” She said that she knew how to read and write in not only Hindi, but having grown up in Goa, was fluent in Marathi and Konkani just as well. “All the work that I’ve done in web-series and films has helped me break this notion.” Starting her career as a model, Waluscha only later ventured into the film industry. When asked if this was always her goal or if it happened inevitably, she replied that acting was something she always wanted to do. “The arts were something which always attracted me. Goa is a land filled with singers, musicians, and theatre. I was always drawn to the stage, and you would have seen me on the stage much more than you would see me in the classroom. It was a space that I really enjoyed and it was always inherently who I was. “ Waluscha also appeared to be incredibly enlightened by the response that her latest series- Tanaav, has received. “Tanaav has helped me break the notion that I am in some way un-Indian much more than any of my other work done in the past. The response that has come in post Tanaav has been overwhelming. I cannot even describe the feeling. Two days post it’s release, suddenly everyone knew my name, people who matter actually saw and appreciated my work…” Tanaav is a Hindi-language action thriller streaming on Sony Liv, revolving around conflict in the Kashmir Valley. It is a remake of the Israeli TV series Fauda, which is streamed internationally on Netflix. Waluscha plays the role of Zainab Riaz in the show.
