Sunanda Vaid
Meet The Enchantress
Welcome to Maxim. How does it feel? Thank you! It feels like a dream come true!

You’re a model and a make-up artist, too. What part do you like playing the most?

Though make-up came first, I always enjoyed the thought of modelling. Not that I didn’t have the same feeling for make-up, but I love the confidence and happiness I get from modelling. It makes me feel as if I am the prettiest girl in the world.

You’ve grown up in Badlapur and now you live in North Carolina. Which one do you call home?

Both are my home. My parents made it a very big deal about never forgetting our roots when we moved to the States. There are so many Indian traditions I carry out on a day-to-day basis; it’s in my blood and it’ll forever be a part of me.

You have a big fan base on Instagram. How did you build up this community?
