The site of decorated autos playing loud Rajasthani music, noisy markets with flamboyant colours and the smell of freshly made Alu Bhujia could only mean one thing , I'm in Bikaner baby! wohooooo! I never thought that I would be sitting in Bikaner working on my final collection. It felt unreal and hard to believe. All of this was happening so fast that I had to stop for a second and breathe, just to take it all in . Coming back to Bikaner was a small thought that had crossed my mind the last time I was in this lovely city and a year later, here I am , one step closer to making one of my many dreams come true.

What's not to love about the city. It's so diverting, just like every other Indian city is . Being here is the perfect change in environment that I need right now for me to focus on my collection.
Wow! Have a great time in Bikaner & all the best for ur final collection :)
