A little glimpse into my world. People ask me, 'Kaam kiya karte ho?' (What work do you do?). I am a mehendi artist, and I pour my heart into creating beautiful designs like these.

About The Art & The Artist
Every intricate mehendi design you see here started as a pencil sketch in my notebook. Whether I am mapping out a Kedarnath theme or perfecting a palace motif, I believe in practicing the composition on paper first, so there is zero confusion once the henna cone touches your skin.
My process is rooted in planning. Before a single drop of henna is applied, I spend time drafting the storyboard—especially for my custom storytelling bridal packages. This ensures that every portrait, city skyline, or unique element we discuss is perfectly placed and proportionate.
Why the process matters:
- Composition Planning: I often sketch complex scenes, like a couple on a swing or architectural jharokhas, on paper first. This helps me get the symmetry right.
- Collaborative Design: When you book a custom storytelling package, we do a pre-application consultation. You share your ideas, and I show you how they will fit together, so you know exactly what the result will look like.
- Continuous Learning: Being a mehendi artist means never stopping. I regularly attend workshops—like the one where I earned my certification from Harin and Miral Patel—to refine my shading techniques and linework.
What my clients say:
Testimonials like "it is exactly the replica of what I saw on her Instagram" motivate me to keep this practice up. I treat every hand as a fresh canvas, but that canvas gets the benefit of all the trial, error, and sketching I have done beforehand. If you have a specific vision, a theme, or just a feeling you want captured in your mehendi, let's sketch it out together.
