Charu Batra & The Bliss Quotient

             

It was when Charu was pursuing her training in early education, after being a mom and taking a sabbatical because of Covid, that she was given tasks of making crafts and presenting the same every week. During this time, she came across many art forms which captured her interest. Charu started trying her hand at these creative tasks. A few days later, she posted some of her work on her Instagram page and there was no looking back. What started as a hobby from a fascination for handmade things, soon turned into a compact homegrown business.

Charu wanted a name which would represent the joy she felt every time she created something. ‘The Bliss Quotient’ was inspired by the idea of 'following your bliss'; representing the tiny things we do out of passion and love which give us happiness. 

The biggest challenge that Charu has faced and continues to face is that of time. With a toddler at home and the demands of a new growing business, she had to figure out how to juggle her time between home and work.

Charu loves baking, teaching and writing; she was an education researcher and content developer before she had her son. She has also worked for organisations like the British High Commission, Taylor and Francis, and Fore School of Management.

Charu has a 3.5-year-old son.

Chitwan Mohan and Cuddles_by_ChitwanMohan

                      From the time she completed her fashion course at Parsons, Chitwan knew that designer clothing was the line she wanted to get into. She started with womenswear in 2011 and then ventured into menswear in 2016. Whenever Chitwan visited the fabric markets for men’s fabrics, she would find herself staring at the cute kids’ fabrics and would wish that she could do something in that line. She would pick up fabrics for her son’s nightwear and shirts and they turned out really well; every time he wore them, her family would encourage her to consider venturing into this as a side business and gauge the response. Chitwan began small in 2020 and then there was no looking back. This isn’t a side business anymore. Chitwan is extremely passionate about it and doing kids' wear in particular makes her extremely happy. Moreover, she has discovered a staunch support system in the form of her mommy clients. It ...

                     Anu had always been inclined towards sketching, drawing and painting since her childhood while her mother was inclined towards clothes and fashion. So, it was no surprise when Anu ended up taking fashion design as a subject in 11 th grade. Anu always had a lot of questions in her mind. What was she here? What was the purpose of her life? What could she do which would be different from the norm? She had a deep desire to prove something to herself. After completing her graduation, Anu took admission in Pearl Academy of Fashion for a one-year postgraduate course in Fashion Merchandising. Alongside this she started her own workshop at Shahpur Jat. Anu handled everything; from finding the place for the workshop to setting up a team of tailors, to buying machines and raw materials. Her parents were a huge support for her during this time. Looking back, Anu wonders how she managed and she is proud of the fact that...
