ADITI ARYA

Aditi hails from Chandigarh. She grew up in Delhi, and worked as a business analyst for Ernst and Young, while enrolled with the Indian School of Business’s ‘Young Leaders’ program, before she transitioned into the entertainment world. She won the Miss India contest in 2015 and represented India at the Miss World pageant. She signed her first Telugu film immediately after her contest and since then has done several web series and regional films. She strongly believes in educational equity and says that the access to internet can enhance access to high quality education for rural India and has been working towards creating tools to enable that while balancing her acting and modelling career.

THE KINGFISHER EXPERIENCE

“I felt precious, shooting for the Kingfisher calendar. I have put in a lot of discipline into my fitness and training to get comfortable with the camera over the years. This shoot was my opportunity to let all that hard work show up in the results. The team is full of perfectionists who draw the best out of you and the models were a dream girl gang to hang out with. The location, the cultural vibrance, the weather and that sense of empowerment and freedom in the bikinis all added to an experience I will never forget.”

AISHWARYA SUSHMITA

Aishwarya earned her spot as the Kingfisher Calendar girl in 2016 after winning the KF supermodel 3. She has endorsed multiple brands like Titan Eye Plus, Jabong, Whirlpool, and Volkswagen and walked the ramp for all major designers like Manish Malhotra, Manish Arora, Anita Dongre, Rohit Bal and Tarun Tahiliani. Born in Bihar, she has made it far in her career. Along with a vibrant modelling career, Aishwarya is also a national level badminton player. She holds a master’s degree in philosophy from the University of Delhi. THE KINGFISHER EXPERIENCE
