HOWEVER, A HEALTH SETBACK CAUSED HER TO LOSE HER WILL TO DESIGN, UNTIL HER SONS VIRAJ AND VISHESH STEPPED IN TO SUPPORT HER. WELCOMING HELLO! INTO THEIR CHARMING HOME, THEY SHARE INSIGHTS INTO FASHION, FAMILY, AND HOW THEIR STRONG BOND IS INSTRUMENTAL IN SHAPING A LASTING LEGACY
In the enchanting, old-world neighbourhood of Alipore, nestled within a quiet corner of Raja Santoshi Road in Kolkata, resides a quaint bungalow. This is the home of India’s iconic designer, Anamika Khanna, where she lives with her husband, Vijay, and their twin sons, Viraj and Vishesh.
Operating out of her studio in Kolkata, Anamika is one of India’s top trousseau designers and a revered figure in the world of fashion. She was among the first Indians to showcase at Paris Fashion Week and secured an exclusive contract with Harrods in 2002, establishing herself as a name to reckon with both in India and abroad. Recently, as part of the ongoing global textile expo, Bharat Tex 2024, Anamika showcased the artistry of zardozi with intricate handmade lace and pearls. Among the six A-list designers to showcase their work, she was praised by Union Minister of Textiles Piyush Goyal, alongside Darshana Vikram Jardosh, for her contribution to preserving and promoting Indian craftsmanship on the global stage.
However, when you watch her at home, she could easily pass off as just another society homemaker, issuing multiple instructions to her retinue of staffers as she walks around in her chic designer AK robe, with her make-up half done. Anamika is a bundle of nerves, anxious about the ‘looks for the shoot’ one moment and gently reprimanding the twins for not having planned their outfits.
