Festivya is committed to the empowerment of women. We work with talented artisans, most of them women, to help them sell their handmade jewellery, and showcase their talent to the world.

Introducing Festiva's "Women Who Make A Difference" initiative. Starting in 2018, we at Festivya mark the beginning of a new initiative "Women Who Make A Difference"!

Every month we will highlight the achievements of talented women, who make a difference. As a token of appreciation, Festivya sends out a small gift handcrafted by our artisans to these wonderful women for being an inspiration to all of us.

Women Who Make A Difference - Shreya Krishnan

Shreya is a woman with diverse talents. Currently VP of Marketing and Communications at Anviti Insurance Brokers Pvt Ltd, Shreya is a known name in the world of Branding, Marketing and Communications. Prior to her current profile, Shreya played a pivotal role at First Advantage India wherein she not only headed the marketing function but also contributed immensely towards the CSR, Branding, and PR for the firm. Her recent accomplishments apart from the corporate achievements include her winning the Mrs. India Universe 2017 World title. She is also gearing up for her representation at Mrs. World in 2018.

With her self-confidence, Shreya has defied the stereotypes and notions that revolve around skin color. In a country like India, where there are brands projecting fairness to be the definition of beauty, this dynamic lady sets an example of being comfortable in one's own skin. Her social media handles(drama.rani) showcase her transformation journey from being a coy girl to the confident fashion icon that she is today. In an era, where machine-made perfection replaces handmade, Shreya vouches for sustainable fashion and handloom which are her fashion favorites.

A perfect combination of beauty and brains, Shreya is also a social activist and a powerful influencer. She has been championing various causes revolving around the environment, women empowerment and children. With her volunteering and CSR partnerships through organizations like CEE and Greenpeace Shreya aims to create a difference in the society. In her talks and forums, Shreya emphasizes on her belief 'She for She' and strongly advocates that women must stand for each other to drive a change in their own lives.

Apart from being a doting mother to a four-year-old and a marketing professional Shreya is also a passionate Kathak dancer. Her strong sense of style and beliefs makes her role model today. Shreya signifies the modern women of today, who are a perfect blend of traditions and modernity.

Festivya, salutes the spirit of Shreya Krishnan and wishes her the best for her future accomplishments that will do womanhood proud!
