This is the first look for Shah Rukh Khan in the film *Jawan*. I designed this gritty, intense villain costume to establish the character's menacing presence from the very first poster.

I had the opportunity to style the legendary MS Dhoni for this Citroen "Team Dhoni" ad campaign. The goal was a cool, approachable look that matched his personality, featuring a simple blue tracksuit for this shot in a stadium full of fans.

For the Kollywood movie *Killer*, I created this dark, imposing look for actor SJ Suryah. The all black ensemble, featuring a long trench coat and a cross necklace, was designed to give his character a powerful and mysterious first impression.

Styling for this Honda CB 350 campaign was about capturing a mood. Here, I created a rugged, urban biker look with a classic leather jacket and dark jeans, set against a moody, nighttime city backdrop.

I styled this stunningly intricate Indian bridal look for a photoshoot with actress Riva Arora. The design features a heavily embroidered red lehenga, layered necklaces, a maang tikka, and a traditional red dupatta.

About Costume Design & Styling for Media

How I See Costume Design

I’m Rini, and for me, costume design is about catching a vibe and turning it into something you can actually wear. I chase moods, not just trends. Sometimes it’s wild, sometimes it’s subtle, but it’s always about telling a story with fabric, colour, and shape.

Where You’ve Seen My Work

I’ve worked on everything from big Bollywood and Kollywood films to ad campaigns and photoshoots. Some days I’m sketching out futuristic film costume design for sci-fi movies, other days I’m styling MS Dhoni for a celebrity ad campaign. I’ve even made anime-inspired commercial costumes for brands like Britannia Treat.

Building Worlds & Characters

Films are my playground. I’ve helped create looks for Shah Rukh Khan in Jawan, designed gritty first-impression costumes for SJ Suryah in Killer, and brought AI-generated concepts to life for Krithi Shetty in Love Insurance Kompany. Each project means building a whole world, not just picking clothes.

Styling for Brands & Shoots

Ads and photoshoots need instant impact. I’ve styled everything from rugged biker looks for Honda to Indian bridal photoshoot styling for Riva Arora. Sometimes it’s streetwear, sometimes it’s full-on glam.

My Way of Working

I get hands-on. I’ll hand-paint jackets, make custom patches, and even try stuff on myself to get the fit right. Sourcing is half the fun - I’ll hunt for the perfect piece, or just make it if I can’t find it. Not every idea works, but I love the challenge.

My Story

Hey, I’m Rini. Everything’s a vibe for me, you know? Sometimes I get ideas while wandering in Sydney rain, or just staring at the stars, feeling tiny and amazed. Mumbai is my playground - you’ll catch me painting jackets or stitching on patches, maybe with my cats chilling nearby. I guess I just chase those little sparks, whether it’s travel, art or just a quiet chai break. My style? Kinda wild, always real.
