    Modelling has always been my passion. Being an MBA graduate and engineer never held me baçk in any way to follow my passion. Because I always follow my heart. When I heard about Cocoaberry from one of my friend and then learnt more about it from winners of different pageants, I was impressed because these winners are my inspiration to follow suit and their mentors were Anjali and Alesia Raut. I believe my dedication, self confidence and never-give-up attitude in any circumstances makes me a good model.”

    I work hard on myself to keep fit — I maintain a strict workout routine which includes both weight training and cardio and my diet has less carbohydrates and more protein, as per my body type. I am happy with the way my work is shaping up. I have been doing print and catalogue shoots on a regular basis, few ramp shows, two short films and one music video. For now modelling is my first love and will always be but acting is something I enjoy too. If I do diversify into an alternate career it would be acting.”
