Ridhi Khosla Jalan In Coversation With Sunita Kohli
When someone gives you an opportunity to interview Mrs. Sunita Kohli, a Padma Shri awardee, what is the first thing you would do?
I called my mom! And then spent daaaays doing research so I would be worthy of the opportunity! The more I learned about Mrs. Kohli, the more overwhelmed I became! 😅
– She is the only interior designer to have won a Padma Shri
– She is India’s premier architectural and interior design restorer. She has restored and decorated the Rashtrapati Bhavan, Parliament House, Prime Ministers Office and more more iconic projects.
– She has written multiple books, including a cookbook! Which has gone into print for the 10th time and deemed a classic.
– She has a daughter, who is also a gifted interior designer @kohelika_kohli and they have a furniture and interiors brand called @k2_india
And this only 10% of her achievements. Is there anything Mrs. Kohli does that doesn’t turn to gold? She is a maestro, a legend and an icon.
From the minute I walked into her home, I felt at ease. We ended up chatting for 3 hours! She is particular about the words she chooses, is charismatic and extremely detail oriented.
I grew up during this interview. I remember coming home from the interview and telling my family that I evolved in these 3 hours. I’m 37 but I’m still going to say, when I grow up – I want to be like @sunitakohli31
