Karigar
I was born in Bihar, spent several years in Kolkata before finally moving to Mumbai to work with Beej. We are three brothers and we have all been working in the leather trade since our childhood. My expertise lies in sewing and construction. Working with different sewing machines and practicing different techniques has always been exciting for me. At Beej I get to work on new materials and that’s what I find most exciting.

I have two decades of experience in drafting and pattern making, and have worked across the country. My expertise gained me the position of a supervisor and at Beej, I look after the production process. I am tough when it comes to quality control. My favourite part of the job is working with new designs and problem solving.

I had been in the leather industry for a long time. I emphasise a lot on details and ensure that nothing gets missed. With over 20 years of experience in the leather exports industry, the shift has been both challenging and exciting for me. As a part of the founding team at Beej, I’m excited to work hard and watch the business grow.
Operations and Business Development Lead
I am a fashion enthusiast who dreams of styling celebrities. I think outfits and accessories play an important role in showing your personality to the world. Most of my time is spent analysing the outfits of a character and exploring fashion across the board. Working with Beej has helped me grow as a person and as a fashion admirer. It has also led me down the path of incorporating sustainability into the fashion industry and in my life.
Marketing and Communications Lead
My favourite question to ask is: why? I grew up reading the adventures of Sherlock Holmes and, at some point of time, began to question everything. This curiosity led me down the path of sustainability while I was pursuing fashion design. I added journalism to my degree and began my own investigation on what it means to live consciously. I have always been keen to learn more about the strides made by the industry, be it the invention of new materials or the implementation of mindful practices. With Beej, I have found the perfect way to combine my passion with my never-ending curiosity.
Creative Lead
While I am a photographer by profession, I am a designer at heart. I started out by simply helping Arundhati and her team with design and creative inputs, but soon before I knew it, I became a core member of it. With a keen eye for detail and a slight OCD, I am known for asking for the best and not settling.
Founder
My biggest strength and perhaps my greatest weakness, too, is that I am a dreamer. My
natural
tendency to view the world as it can be and not how it is, is what prompted me to start
Beej.
Working with Beej gives me the opportunity to do all the things I love without having to
choose one over the other. I get to create, design, wear multiple hats, build a team and
above all, dream. The fact that my doggo and daughter can come hangout with me at the
studio
is an added bonus.
It’s also the first time in my 18+ years of a working career that I look forward to work
each
day, because no day is like the previous one.
