Abhishek and aashita chadha: THE KARIGHARS , BENGALURU

Ask Abhishek Chadha, founder of the KhariGhars, what is most satisfying about his profession, and he is quick to tell you that it is the fact that most of his clients are his close friends. “My favorite achievement is the feedback I get from them,” he says, adding, “When they write positive reviews about their experience, when they refer us to their friends and family, and when they come back to us for the interiors of their new home, that is what makes each day worthwhile for me.”

Founded in 2009, the firm’s forte is completing turnkey projects for villas and apartments. According to CFO Aashita Chadha, it all started more than a decade ago when she and Abhishek designed the interiors of their own home. “The whole experience left us exasperated and motivated us with a desire to start our own design firm,” explains Abhishek. “Ashita came up with a distinctive name and contributes inherently to the design ideology. When I realized the firm’s tremendous potential, I asked my brother, Vinayak Chadha, to come onboard. Together, we are a force to reckon with.”

The KhariGhars pride themselves on seeing every project as a challenge and try always to out-do the client’s expectations. “We recently finished a project named Sobha Palladian in record time and maintained our reputation of always adhering to the deadline,” says Abhishek, adding, “We promised the client he would have his house ready by June 30, 2020. Due to the pandemic and subsequent lockdown, we had to halt operations; but as soon as the restrictions were lifted, we worked a day in and out to complete it on time.”
