• What was the incentive behind your entry in this industry being a “male factor”?

From my graduation days, fashion and trends always held my attention. They intrigued me to such an extent that it was getting difficult for me to get over with it and here I’m today with a successfully established firm, Abhishek Makeovers. As for being a male factor, the speciality of this industry is that it is never biased against anyone. Any person with knowledge and passion is all free to try their charm.
