The first thing Vanshika Goenka Misra asks us as we arrive at her palatial family home in South Mumbai is how long our shoot is going to take. Not long, we assure her. We assume she has to rush back to work — the young heiress spearheads Christy, a British brand acquired by Welspun World for ₹100 crores in 2006, and Vanshika finds herself perennially on the go. She heaves a sigh of relief and flashes us a most endearing smile: “I just want a little time to unwind,” she tells us, on the contrary.
We’ve met her on one of her quick but frequent visits to Mumbai. She now spends her life between the maximum city and Dubai, moving there after her marriage to entrepreneur Aneesh Misra in 2022. One who loves dancing, reading and listening to podcasts in her downtime, Vanshika is statuesque and poised, inherently stylish — and isn’t fussy when the camera flashes. “I’m very happy with the pictures,” she declares 10 minutes in. And while she nailed the shots in record time that could compete with a seasoned supermodel, we cajole her for more and she willingly obliges.
Vanshika is no ordinary businesswoman and the free time she’s hoping to get later is a luxury. The younger daughter of (BK) Balkrishan Goenka — Chairman of Welspun World since its inception in 1985 — and Dipali Goenka, CEO and MD of Welspun Living, the company is today one of the top three producers of home textiles in the world, with customers that include Macy’s, JCPenney and Walmart. The multi-billion dollar behemoth also has an impressive reach in steel and pipes (emerging as the second largest line pipe company in the world), infrastructure, renewable energy, warehousing, and oil and gas sectors. Already taking big strides of her own in the world of business, she hopes to make her family proud and carve her own unique niche for herself.
