You & I Magazine - 18.23 Jan 2026

In this issue

Wishing you a very happy, healthy, and prosperous New Year. As we step into January—a month that invites fresh beginnings, reflection, and intention—we’re delighted to welcome you to our first edition of the year, one that celebrates creativity, individuality, and the many ways we express who we are.
We begin 2026 with a Feature Story on Art and Fashion, exploring how the two have long shared a relationship that goes far beyond inspiration. Across history, clothing has evolved into a living canvas—carrying paintings, symbols, and narratives on the body. From Yves Saint Laurent’s iconic Mondrian dresses of 1965 to the bold influence of Pop Art in the decades that followed, fashion became a space where art was not merely referenced, but worn, photographed, and circulated.
Gracing our cover this month is the graceful and grounded Pragya Jaiswal. With a journey that spans law, modelling, and a flourishing career in Telugu cinema, Pragya embodies quiet self-assurance and intentional growth. Known for her poise on screen and her thoughtful approach to life off it, she represents a new generation of actors—those who value depth over spectacle, balance over burnout, and authenticity above all. Read about her journey in Cover Story.
In Making a Mark, Surabhi Sehgal reflects on her enduring belief that food is a form of storytelling — one that connects, moves, and lingers beyond the plate. Returning to You & I after her historic World Vegetarian Champion win, she shares how purpose, intuition, and global recognition have seamlessly come together in her journey.
