We all need someone who would tell us exactly what celebrities, influencers, tastemakers, founders, movers and shakers have in their little black book. So, we became that person, and we’re shining the spotlight on the founder of Amala Earth, Gunjan Jindal Poddar, whose search to find unique and eco-friendly products led to this successful venture. The brand is a one-stop destination for everything eco-friendly, sustainable, handcrafted, upcycled, and absolutely gorgeous. Their first concept store is all ready to be launched in Delhi. We caught up with the brains behind it and asked her about all her favourite brands. Here's what she had to say:
