Have been recognized by Directorate General of Foreign Trade, Bangalore for my work towards women empowerment on International Women's day, 2021.

Women Change Maker Award in March 2023

The journey of “Aahana – The Bliss Store” started in 2014 as "Kundan Handikrafts" a home based business to pursue my passion for handicrafts. And soon the passion turned into a mission to provide low income women with a livelihood. In 2018, we started off with manufacturing of our daily pooja essentials under the brand “Purplebliss”. With a lot of dedication and commitment we worked tirelessly to deliver naturally made high quality handmade products. We are now 10 years in our journey with strong family of 8 full time women employees, 50 part time employees (labour jobs) and 400 women resellers across the globe, we aim to grow into a much larger organization providing additional quality products and helping more women to become independent.  In March 2023, I was recognized for my constant efforts in successfully empowering women  and standing strong against all challenges (especially during Corona) and being a role mode to the community.
