About Mehandi for Weddings & Events
Mehandi That Tells Your Story
Mehandi is not just my kaam (work), it's something I breathe. I believe, “Hunar hai to kadar hai” - skill brings respect. My hands have years of practice, and every swirl, every dot, is done with full attention. No shortcuts, no rushed lines, whether you want a full-arm bridal mehandi or a simple festive design.
Why Choose Me?
- I love making personalized bridal mehandi designs that actually mean something to you. Got a special moment or ritual in mind? I can include it - from couple portrait mehandi (your faces on your palms) to wedding dates, initials, or even a little Kanyadaan scene.
- Into traditional Indian wedding henna or want something modern with negative space and floral motifs? I do it all - Bengali, Muslim, or your own mix-n-match style.
- I work for all occasions - bridal, engagement, sangeet, haldi, Karwa Chauth, Teej, Navratri, or just for fun.
How I Roll
- I come to your ghar (home), so you can chill while getting your mehendi done.
- Mostly in Varanasi, but I travel to Delhi, Noida, Ghaziabad - even destination wedding mehandi artist bookings are cool with me.
- The stain comes out rich, dark - but depends on your skin and the weather, not gonna lie.
If you want your mehandi to be more than just decoration, I make sure it’s your story - on your skin.

My Story
Banarasi chhori hoon main – straight from Mahadev ki nagri (I’m a girl from Banaras, city of Mahadev). Mehandi is my jaan (life), started in Varanasi, now painting hands in Noida, Delhi, wherever folks call. My mantra? Hunar hai to kadar hai (Skill brings respect). So, I teach mehandi too – seeing students grow, wah, alag hi feeling hai (it’s a different happiness). My team, we work hard, laugh harder, and make sure every design sticks in your memory.
