About Production Makeup Artistry
On-Set Life: Behind the Scenes
Log sochte honge (People might think), film sets are all shine and fancy, but honestly, it's mostly running around, quick fixes, and last-minute changes. The magic is real, though, even if it’s mixed with chaos. I love every bit of it - it's majja hi majja (all fun)!
Giving Soul to Characters
Makeup for me isn’t just about colors. My mom taught me that it’s about bringing a character to life, making someone truly become their role. Every face I work on, I remember her and feel her blessings. Saubhagya hai mera (It’s my good fortune).
Bringing Characters to Life (Film, TV & More)
- I help actors transform, whether it’s character transformation makeup for TV or mythological makeup looks for period pieces. For example, turning Ali Asgar into 'Buwaa' or creating the look for young Lord Ram.
- I’ve worked on big films too, like "Raid 2"—got noticed by the Head of Department and landed a Netflix project!
Managing Scale & Speed
I can handle large shoots – Delhi set, 2,000 junior artists, all camera-ready in two hours. It's all about speed and teamwork.
Stage & Performance
As a Kathak dancer, I get what performance makeup needs. Live stage performance makeup is about staying bright under lights and movement, whether for dance or a music video.
Not Just Makeup
I also do hairstyling, from simple looks to complex set styles. Teamwork is key, and I’m all about making the final shot perfect.

My Story
Maa, you left too soon. Miss you every day. She taught me everything—jo main aaj hu, sab kuch unki wajah se hai (all I am today is because of her). Her words echo, 'main teri beti banke aaungi.' Tried my best, maa, par nahi ho paya. Forgive me. Did your makeup like Sridevi, just like you wanted. Life’s full of unsaid things. Blessed with strong women—Ruchi Maa, Jyoti maam, Uma mam—sab ne kuch sikhaya. Grateful for every lesson, every struggle, every surprise.
My Work
Fashion Design, Celebrity Styling, Wardrobe Consulting - I style for films, TV ads, music videos. I also jump in for choreography and makeup if needed.
Giving Soul to Characters - My job is to make every look real and memorable. Character-driven film styling matters most.
Living the Chaos - Long days, big laughs, 2000 junior artists ready in two hours—do ghante me nipataya. My team’s my Jai-Veeru.
Dream Projects - Styling Ranveer Singh—unreal! Doing Sridevi-inspired makeup, or makeup for little Lord Ram, every project is a blessing.
