About A Day in My Life: The Mumbai Hustle

You see the finished design, but the real story is in the travel between Bhendi Bazar and the rest of Mumbai. I am honest about the back pain and long hours because that is the life of a dedicated mehendi artist. My work is about more than just the stain; it is about the connection we build while I am sitting there, cone in hand, during the rush of your event.
