A serial entrepreneur, a tattoo artist, columnist, a body positivity activist thus an influencer in the truest sense of the word, an actor and a model not to mention a dog lover, this girl is an absolute trailblazer and does whatever she feels passionate about no questions asked and without a care about who or what is going to be said about her! Mallika Angela Chaudhuri has been setting Chennai on fire with her tattoo studio dedicated to the welfare of her 14 rescue dogs, and she says she did it all through the help of social media and being true to herself no matter what people said or thought about her.
Today we go in depth with her life and what drives her to be an inspiration to so many. Hailing from Canada, Mallika came to Chennai to pursue an acting career and thought she would be able to flaunt her curves across the silver screens but Tollywood has started to switch to skinnier frames when it came to actresses, My father wanted me to go back home, but I just fell in love with Chennai and I fell into a small business venture and that was it, I knew I enjoyed being me own boss,” says Mallika, She decided to stay in Chennai and start her acclaimed Tattoo Studio, Laughing Budda Tattoos, named after her dog Budda a rescued lab and is a tribute to her late sister Raisa who wanted to be a tattoo artist. The motto is to create magical art and experience for her clients and make it less commercial an experience. I wanted people to enjoy the experience and decided I wanted to create tattoos that would be a connection between my energy and the clients.”
