AKIHI (noun)- Listening to directions and then walking off and promptly forgetting them.The label, AKIHI was conceptualized by Srishti Arora, along the same belief when she embarked upon a journey to find an exceptional wearable expression for traditional Indian embroideries. As a trained textile designer, Srishti has forever been enthralled by local textiles and embroideries of Jaipur, but wanted to find an offbeat avenue to showcase them. A lot of soul-searching ensued till she struck upon the idea of crafting jewelry pieces that were adorned with embroideries and fabrics instead of gemstones.

Gulaal, which is synonymous with the colourful festival of Holi, is fuelled by my undying love for colours and quality. GULAAL BRINGS FORTH A RANGE OF DELIGHTFUL FASHION CLOTHING, MODERN, COMFORTABLE, STRIKING BUT HINGED FIRMLY ON THE USE OF QUALITY TEXTILES. Like most designers, I draw my inspiration from almost everything around me, whether it is my everyday life in the colourful and beautifully slow-paced Jaipur or my travel to frenzied cities abroad dipped in their multi-layered cultures.
Gulaal is for you and what you really are, it is designed keeping in mind normal people who like to look good without being uncomfortable. At Gulaal, our roots are important to us – hence, Cotton is the basic fabric of choice. We firmly believe clothes can look good on anyone irrespective of their looks or figure. This is the type of clothing that we completely BELIEVE IN –feels good on the skin and look absolutely pretty when adorned. This is what I wear!

I first realized that I want to be a fashion designer when I was in standard 6th, at school my favorite subject was arts and even my math and science books were full of clothes sketches.
Having realized my dream so early in life I aspire each day to achieve it. Born and raised in Rajasthan, I am inclined toward block print and have been always fascinated by the art of it.
