Monochrome Magic

He’s passionate about Indian artisans and art, and that’s what led him into the world of designing. Mohammad Mazhar recalls, “I was in my final year of graduation when a friend suggested I try my hand at fashion designing. And one day, after watching 3 Idiots (2009) I realised I wanted to follow my dream. I came home and told my parents, who were shocked and against it at first, but eventually they came around.”
