Pynk would be the first
women's fashion wear
brand available in the general trade category, Todi said. "There are a lot of women's fashion wear brands, but they are in organised retail. Our target is general merchandise. The price point for the brand would be Rs 500-1000, which would be the most moderate option in this category," he added.
Todi said the company would spend Rs 23-25 crore on promotion and has roped in Shraddha Kapoor as Pynk's brand ambassador. "The promotional spend would remain the same in the second year as well," he said. Commenting on Cozi, he added that it would be the first mid-premium brand in its category in the country to touch the Rs 1,000-crore mark.

From 1,447 applications to 4 offers: Techie stuck in wrong role reveals how he found his dream job with a 150% hike. Reddit applauds
If you've ever felt trapped in a job that doesn't reflect your ambitions, this story might hit home. One Indian techie—stuck in a monotonous support role despite dreams of working in analytics—took to Reddit 's r/developersIndia to bare it all. His post, titled '1.5 Years, 1447 Applications, 22 Interviews, 4 Offers,' is more than just numbers—it's a story of frustration, resilience, and hope. Coming from a core engineering background with minimal coding experience, he, like many others during the pandemic, landed in IT through sheer circumstance. A support project gave him a stable paycheck but no growth. 'No development, no learning. Just tickets and SQL queries,' he wrote. If you've felt your career stalling despite your potential, you'll understand the helplessness. The Learning Wasn't Enough Determined to break into analytics, he began upskilling—Power BI, Excel, SQL, Python. He built projects, crafted a strong resume, and still—no calls. Why? Recruiters couldn't look past his 'support engineer' title. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like I lost my wife, now my son is in danger, please help him! Donate For Health Donate Now Undo That's when the breakthrough came. 'I realised I had to repackage my existing experience to showcase what I was actually capable of,' he said. He rebuilt his resume with domain-relevant projects and started aligning his work to reflect transferable skills. Slowly, interview calls trickled in. But there was another beast waiting: the interviews themselves. Rejections That Burn, Lessons That Stick Despite a resume that scored over 90 on ATS systems, his first few interviews were crushing. One interviewer even asked if he had actually worked on the projects he mentioned. He began to spiral, questioning everything.

'I started treating every interview like a free mock,' he said. He used ChatGPT to simulate questions, asked friends who had cracked interviews, and practiced until the nerves turned into clarity. Bit by bit, the interviews stopped being terrifying. His answers became sharp. His confidence, visible. And finally, the offers started coming in—four of them. One brought a life-changing 150% salary hike. Hard Truths To Learn He doesn't sugarcoat the struggle. He talks openly about how networking (not job portals) brought him all his offers. That his 90-day notice period cost him real opportunities. That yes, at times, he even considered pretending to have a medical emergency just to get an early release. 'Keep that as a last option,' he adds. He also emphasizes that practice beats perfection. Whether it was refining his story, crafting a resume that told a narrative, or simply learning how to explain his own projects, everything boiled down to showing—not just telling—what he could do.

Employee shares his major career regrets on Reddit Why This Story Resonated So Deeply His post didn't just get attention—it got applause. Reddit users poured in with comments like, 'Your journey is inspiring,' and 'I just switched from Instagram to Reddit and don't regret it after reading this.' Because in a world where job anxiety, rejection fatigue, and imposter syndrome run rampant, here was someone saying: Yes, it's hard. Yes, you'll want to give up. But no, you're not alone—and it is possible. 'Jobs Don't Come to You. You Chase Them.' That line, towards the end of his post, sums up the spirit of this journey. Whether you're just starting out, trying to pivot into a new domain, or deep in your own cycle of applications and rejections—his story is a reminder that progress is often invisible until the very last step. So if you're reading this while dreading another day in a job that doesn't reflect who you are, remember: the resume isn't everything. The title on your current contract doesn't define your future. And sometimes, the grind pays off in the most unexpected ways.
