Maharashtrian Bridal and Traditional Makeup
I specialize in bringing your dream Maharashtrian bridal look to life, from the royal Peshwai style to elegant guest makeup for your loved ones.
A complete transformation into a classic Peshwai Maharashtrian bride. This look features vibrant, sunset-toned eyeshadow, a sharp wing, and a traditional red lip, all brought together with authentic accessories like the mundavalya, chandrakor bindi, and a classic bridal nath.
A radiant traditional Maharashtrian look, perfect for a wedding or festive occasion. The makeup features defined eyes, a classic nose ring (nath), and a subtle red lip that complements the black and red silk saree.
A classic and neat low bun hairstyle, elegantly adorned with a string of fresh white gajra (jasmine flowers). This traditional Indian hairstyle is perfect for pairing with a saree and is a popular choice for weddings and pujas.
This video shows the process of creating a soft and elegant Maharashtrian look. I focused on a simple braided hairstyle and fresh, natural-looking makeup that enhances features without feeling heavy, making it ideal for a family member or guest at a wedding.
A beautiful smokey eye and bold red lip on mature skin. This look was created for my mother, showing how I tailor glamorous makeup to be flattering and elegant at any age, perfect for the mother of the bride or groom.
A modern and formal makeup look suitable for an evening reception or party. This style features a blended green smokey eye with a defined lower lash line and a glossy nude-brown lip, creating a sophisticated and glamorous effect.
About Featured
When I create a Peshwai look, I spend extra time securing the nath, mundavalya, and the heavy Nauvari drape so they stay perfectly in place through all your ritual movements. It is not just about the makeup application but ensuring you feel light and comfortable in your traditional attire from the start of the ceremony until the final photo.
My Approach to Your Look
Makeup is my way of being part of your most special memories. Whether you are aiming for the grand, traditional Peshwai bride feel with bold eyes and a sharp chandrakor bindi, or a softer style for a pre-wedding puja, my goal is to highlight what makes you, you. I focus on techniques that work with our skin tones and humidity, ensuring your look lasts from the first ritual to the final goodbye.
Versatility for the Whole Family
I love getting the entire family ready, from mothers and sisters to aunts and friends. I understand that the mother of the bride or groom needs a look that is elegant and defined but comfortable for long events. I tailor every session to the specific person in my chair, using techniques that enhance natural features rather than masking them.
Hair and Draping
Traditional attire requires more than just makeup. I am experienced with pinning heavy Ambada buns, setting real flowers like gajra, and perfecting complex saree drapes like the 9-yard Nauvari. I handle the jewelry setting for your nath and mundavalya to ensure everything is secure and sits correctly.

I am CIDESCO-certified and constantly practicing new techniques, from smokey eyes to clean, modern reception styles. I serve clients within 20km of Pune and come directly to your venue, so you can relax with your family while I take care of the styling details.
