Mehul Choksi of Gitanjali is a famous man. Famous for running a jewellery brand which, by many, is cited as India's answer to L'oreal in terms of marketing and brand positioning with as many as five Indian beauties endorsing its various products. However, he is also an infamous man. .. if model Carol Gracias and show director Anu Ahuja is to be believed! At a recent jewellery fashion show in Mumbai, Carol seemed to be in no mood to talk to media. Apparently, the supermodel was miffed at Mehul Bhai (fondly called) for not clearing her dues for quite some time now. "I am not going to speak with media and let them (Gitanjali) extract publicity out of me…" she was overheard while speaking backstage with her friend. The PR agency tried pursuing Candice to talk with media persons and give bytes, but it was of no avail. Interestingly, the man himself was present at the occasion, playing a crucial role in the event promoted by World Gold Council.
In another tip off that we received, leading choreographer and fashion show director, Anu Ahuja seems to be facing the same woes from Gitanjali's head hauncho. Anu had directed a couple of shows for Gitanjali this year, and she has not received her remuneration till now. A competitor of Mehul Choksi, on condition of anonymity went on to confirm, "It's in his nature to hang payments… the only people he pays are stars", well, obviously he doesn't like Mehul bhai so much to make such an appalling statement. Mr. Choksi himself was not willing to comment and perhaps rightly so. Internal finances are a matter of confidence and one can never take sides without knowing the context of the story. May be he has held up payments with a reason or may be, it is recession that is tying him down… we don't know. But the ones who have dealt with him will surely know. Meanwhile, Stylekandy.com will respect the man for what he is. Fashion connoisseurs of the capital miss no opportunity to celebrate and this time the occasion was the first anniversary of the exotic culinary restro, Asia 7 and Fresco Co. The celebration took place in the form of a grand party offering its guests a unique Mediterranean ambience and cuisine along with the exotic flavours of seven countries.

This occasion was a perfect treat for party hoppers. The get together witnessed a melange of the creme da le creme of the fashion fraternity and the Delhi society's A-listers with guests Rina Dhaka, Divya Burman, Ritika Awasthi, Sabina, Sudipto Mukherjee, Soni Aggarwal, Rohit Aggarwal, Amit Burman, Atul and Sonu Wassan, Fatima Karan, Saba Ali, Gauri and Nainika Karan,Varun Talwar and many more. Both Fresco Co and Asia 7 brought together the elegance of impressive decor and tantalizing aromas of their array of dishes. Their prompt service and pleasant ambience were the biggest attractions among many others. Whosoever present in the party enjoyed an extensive variety of cocktails and dinner along with a live band by Peter, delighted to play all international requests.
