For Jaishil, The Idea Of ‘Sexy’ Is The Same As ‘Smart.’

Priyanka Chakrabarti
Sensuality Unleashed
Welcome to Maxim. How does it feel? Honestly, I’m so excited and grateful to be featured in Maxim, a publication that focuses on women’s accomplishments that transcend their beauty. It’s a defining moment for me to share a platform with other women I’ve long been inspired by.

How would you define yourself in three words?

Confident, generous and intelligent. After all, I do share my birthday with Oprah!

You’re a British-Indian model living in the Middle East. What is the coolest gig that you’ve ever been a part of?

Born in Kenya and raised in the UK with an Indian ethnicity, I’ve always thought of myself as a woman of the world. So, for me, the Painted Princess Project stands out the most—influential women working with charitable causes for a better world. The profits from the prints are donated to help fight modern-day slavery as well as human trafficking.

What do you like best about your job?

I spent a lifetime not knowing my worth or being able to see the beauty that others saw in me. Modelling is the miracle that helps me practice self-love and enables me to live each day celebrating my worth. The best part of my job is helping others in their self-belief journey.

If not modelling, what would you be doing?

Actually, in addition to modelling, I work in the pharmaceutical industry. A beautiful woman with a brain is a pretty lethal combination! Don’t you agree?
