In a buzzling bylane of Bandra, Joshi House welcomes us on a warm — rather, sweltering — Saturday morning and what we discover is quite unexpected. In place of the usual frenzy, a sense of tranquillity lingers in the air. Inside, we find Aanchal Wadhwa Jaising and Aishwarya Wadhwani Avlani chatting about the looks they’re about to wear, how they spent their Friday nights and of course, the latest on Roman and Valentine — their adorable fur babies.
Aanchal waves ‘hello’ as we watch her expertly choosing accessories to match her bedazzled outfit. After all, the young fashionista now works with her mum-in-law — the leading Indian designer, Monisha Jaising — and genuinely embodies the effortless style we see in their designs.
As we walk up to Aishwarya, she’s sitting down for a test shot and to the photographer’s delight, the expert influencer seems to know all her angles. Her social media impact is undeniable, and as one of creative agency Plane Crazy’s three founders, she juggles it all with apparent ease.
HELLO! sits down with this stylish duo delving into the stories from their 2022 weddings, life post marriage, unwavering passion for fashion, jet-setting escapades and so much more!
Where did you both first meet? How did you become friends?
AJ: We’ve been bumping into each other at parties, that’s how we became friends.
AV: And I’ve known Aanchal socially since a while but we got closer when she married one of my school friends — her husband [Yudhishthir Jaising, founder of boutique fitness studio Antigravity Club] and I were in the same class in Bombay Scottish school!
