S E L F E X P R E S S I O N // ... a self portrait of identification of spirituality.
Urdu and Arabic writing “ tattoos” depicting my Indian roots with my Islamic upbringing and me delving into Sufism.
On the Forehead in Urdu: A heart of a believer is his guide.
On the left in the pic: My name in Urdu. A Persian name meaning “triumphant”, “achiever of victory”. On the right hand side under the eye is the Marbta ( Tied) version of letter “Taa” in Arabic.
On the neck on the right : The Arabic letter Waw - letter symbolizes the mystical promise of the total assent to God also referred to as al-‘aql bil-idafah (lntellect in relation to what is below it). On the next on the right of the pic is the word Maktub - “ It is written” - your fate or destiny.

✨ ✨ //.. An evening with scent, light, and something unforgettable.
Attended the launch of Contre Jour by Frédéric Malle at SKINS — and I’m still thinking about it.
It’s one of those fragrances that doesn’t shout… it glows. Warm, radiant, slightly mysterious — like golden light hitting your skin at sunset. Clean but sensual. Subtle, but it stays with you. I love it.
