About Modeling Services
My Approach to Modeling
Modeling to me isn't just about posing pretty - it's about what you feel inside, the energy you bring. At 36, I honestly don't care about fitting some textbook idea of what a model "should" be. I want to have fun and keep it real, and yeah, sometimes I act delulu because that's what makes life interesting.
Switching Up the Vibe
People call me a chameleon. Some days I'm all Devi mode, other days I'm a diva, or just that nomadic, khanabadosh (wanderer) type. I love switching between strong, edgy looks, soft and feminine moods, or just super casual and relatable. If your project needs a versatile fashion model or wants to capture a specific vibe, I’m pretty good at adapting.
What I Can Do For You
- Indian saree modeling - I've got tons of experience with traditional and modern drapes.
- Western fashion shoots - from evening dresses to everyday street style.
- Jewelry showcase modeling - I know how to highlight both bold western pieces and detailed Indian jewelry.
- Social media campaign modeling - whether it's a GRWM (Get Ready With Me) reel or a concept ad, I can build that vibe you want.
More Than Just Posing
Because I also work as a photographer and creative director, I get the technical side - angles, lighting, composition. I don’t just follow directions; I can pitch ideas and help shape your shoot. I believe 'kuch paane ke liye kuch khona padta hai doston' (to gain something, you gotta lose something, friends). Great shots come from collaboration.
Why Work With Me
I see myself as a partner in your storytelling, not just a face. If you're after energy, experience, and a fresh point of view, let's make something that stands out.

My Story
Okay, so I’m Manisha. I turned 36 and just wanna freeze how I look and feel right now. It’s not about the body, it’s the energy, yaar. I figured late in life - control your tongue, eat good, speak good, and have fun. My friends are all 18-22, so I keep up with trends (sometimes I’m lost, haha). I’m a bit ‘khanabadosh’ (nomadic), one day Dubai for a Habibi Hair Cut, next day Mumbai, saree flying, Bollywood feels. Everything is temporary - so I’m always documenting ordinary moments. They become epic memories.
My Work
Photography, Cinematography & Creative Direction - I shoot photos, videos, and direct creative stuff. I also do content creation and social media management.
Energy Switching & Fun Shoots - On set, I switch from serious to goofy real quick. We go as models, come back as memes. Always vibing.
Elegant Meets Khanabadosh Style - My style blends traditional Indian with modern chic. I love shooting both looks, especially khanabadosh style photos.
Documenting Real Moments - I capture candid vibe photography - it's all about the energy and making memories out of everyday life.
