Thank you, Times of India, for making space for mine!

A publication I grew up reading. A platform I always associated with the big names. The ones who’ve made it.

And for a moment, I just sat still. Not out of disbelief, but out of deep, overwhelming gratitude. Because I remembered exactly where this journey began, with one story.

A story I scribbled late at night, not knowing if it would ever mean anything to anyone.

A piece of jewellery that wasn’t made to be sold. It was made to be felt. There was no grand business blueprint, no backing, no big launch. Just heart. And a voice that refused to stay silent.

Over the years, I’ve worn many hats- founder, creator, dreamer, doer. But at the center of it all, I’ve always remained a storyteller.

That’s what Kkatha has always stood for. Not trends. Not sparkle. But soul.

And this moment?

This beautiful, full-circle moment, is for every version of me that doubted, struggled, but still showed up.

For every small business owner out there building something out of thin air.

And for every person who believes that stories have the power to transform.

Thank you, Times of India, for making space for mine.

And thank you to everyone who has ever believed in Kkatha, you’re part of this journey in ways I’ll never forget.

This isn’t the destination. It’s a milestone.

And I’m walking into the next chapter with the same thing I started with:
Hope.
