Modello Domani

The entrepreneur behind the brand.

From India's first date-organising company to a globally recognised luxury footwear house. A founder's journey across two decades of building.

My journey of entrepreneurship started all the way back in 2010 when even the word 'Entrepreneur' was not so commonly heard. At that time I started India's first date organising company 'Flirtease' where we arranged romantic dining set-ups and experiences exclusively for couples.

Later, I launched 'Tagged', a retail store selling high-end brands based in New Delhi. While operating as a retailer I realised how international brands positioned themselves and made money from the markup. In 2015, I began to dabble with the idea of launching my own brand.

"In 2015 the vision became reality. I launched my luxury footwear label, Modello Domani, which I currently spearhead."

Handmade. Heritage. Global.

Modello Domani is a luxury house for the man who notices the stitch. Handmade, artisanal and unapologetically premium, built for weddings, milestones and the moments that deserve more than off-the-shelf.

As an entrepreneur I feel one must explore their abilities at a deeper level and never let go of an opportunity when presented. The brand has since been covered by Forbes, Economic Times, Entrepreneur and several more.
