1. How did you get started in the modeling/influencer industry?

My name is Sherin Sam, but I go by Sherina online. I was born in Cochin and raised in Bangalore and Kuwait. During college, I participated in the Miss Femina South India Pageant Audition on a whim and was one of the top five contestants. From there, I was sponsored by Times of India to attend the Grazia Ford Supermodel of India World pageant, where I won the title. Since then, I've walked in numerous fashion shows and worked with many top designers and choreographers. I've also appeared in advertisements for brands like Malabar Gold, The Chennai silks, and Vijaya Milk, among others. I even acted in a Tamil movie called 'Vinodhayasitham.' Recently, I participated in Bigg Boss 6 Tamil. In addition to my modeling career, I'm an entrepreneur with a luxury car service. station in Bangalore and a photography studio in Chennai.

2. How do you use your platform as a model/influencer to inspire and influence your followers? 

As an influencer, I have a responsibility towards my followers who are interested in my activities such as modeling, acting, and more. I feel obligated to give back to them for their support. My goal is to influence them positively by promoting the right brands, sharing positive news from my industry, keeping them informed about current events, and participating in social causes. It's important for me to use my platform to make a positive impact on their lives.

3. What are some of the biggest challenges you have faced in your career, and how have you overcome them?
