Get to know... Mohit Hiranandani
Currently, I am: Feeling great. I just hosted a panel at Amazon Beautyverse 2025. Mohit Hiranandani doesn't leave the house without his car keys, house keys, and extra perfume. High point in life: Right now, this is my high point! It changes every day. There should be a high point every day in your life. That's when you know it's worth living. Low point in life: Considering the mishaps and wars around the world, I can't say I've experienced any great suffering. I just hope it gets better for all of us. On my playlist: I'm listening to Sidhu Moose Wala's Paapi on loop. I love Raj Shamani's podcast. And sometimes, I watch 'The Having Said That' show. On my speed dial: My wife, Steffi. Today I'm craving: That chicken katsu curry bowl I'm seeing so many people eating online. My next big splurge: Probably some new shades. And if I'm feeling extra adventurous, then maybe some stocks. Last thing I ordered online: A Lacoste shirt, from Amazon. App I check before bed: Instagram. Advice I'd give my 18-year-old self: I'd tell him to take it easy. That he's going to have a great life find a beautiful wife who understands him. And that he should be thankful there is so much he doesn't have to worry about. My secret skill: I can deliver an answer on the spot without going blank. And I sound fantastic. A superpower/magic tool I wish I had: I'd love to teleport, become invisible, or shape-shift. My favourite Sunday memory while growing up: Spending time with my dad. We had a set routine; we'd pick up breakfast and then get take-away orders for my sister and mum, who'd prefer to stay home. And I'd help him fix the stereo, or the car, or whatever needed fixing that day. My most star-struck moment so far: Meeting Abhishek Bachchan. He's so charismatic and fun. My favourite bad habit: I smoke and drink sometimes. Then, I take a month off to detox. If I could travel back/forward in time, I'd... Stay in the present. I'm too scared to see the future, and I've already lived my past. A trait I despise in people: I can't set boundaries. So, I don't like how easily it comes to others. I won't leave the house without: Car keys, house keys, and extra perfume. The best thing about fame: Getting to do what I love, getting interviewed... it's the best. The worst thing about fame: People who are famous cannot be their normal selves. Because they're judged for it. From HT Brunch, Aug 16, 2025 Follow us on

Held ahead of Prime Day 2025 (July 12–14), the invite-only event brought together over 600 beauty enthusiasts under one roof for workshops for an immersive beauty experience. The event featured Bollywood luminaries including Bhumi Pednekar, Neena Gupta, Kriti Sanon, and Sushant Divgikar, alongside Prime members, creators, and industry leaders. Attendees received an exclusive first look at new launches from leading beauty brands including Hyphen, CeraVe, Laneige, TFIT, Milani, Real Techniques, Nautica for Her, Lamel and more. "We are thrilled to introduce Amazon Beautyverse 2025, an exclusive event that reimagines beauty discovery for Prime members and Amazon influencers," said Siddharth Bhagat, Director - Amazon Beauty, India. "Beautyverse brings together a wide selection of beauty brands with expert-led workshops, interactive showcases, and beauty tech experiences. It's a curated platform designed to inspire and educate, while reinforcing Amazon Beauty's role as a destination for inclusive, trend-forward, and tech-enabled beauty discovery." Zahid Khan, Director - Central Shopping Experience, Amazon India, emphasized that at Amazon, community building is central to how we partner with creators. With Beautyverse, we are deepening these collaborations by bringing together creators, brands, and customers to celebrate and shape the future of beauty in India. Powered by tools like Amazon Creator Central, Creator University, and our AI-led Virtual Try-On, we are helping creators tell richer stories and enabling customers to discover and shop beauty more confidently. Actor Bhumi Pednekar, as part of the panel 'Beauty Beyond Boundaries: India's Global Beauty Movement' added, "Amazon Beautyverse is a powerful showcase of where online beauty is headed — to immersive trials and tech-driven diagnostics — every touchpoint felt designed to educate, inspire, and engage. I loved seeing everything from trending homegrown derma to k-beauty brands coming together with creators and customers in one space. It's exciting to see how Amazon is pushing boundaries and shaping what's next in beauty." The event's panel, 'Redefining Indian Beauty: Icons, Influencers & Inclusivity,' featured actor Neena Gupta, who shared, "I have seen beauty ideals shift dramatically over time. Amazon Beautyverse reflects a positive evolution — a space that celebrates self-expression and authenticity across generations. Today's consumer is more informed and conscious about their beauty choices, making this educational platform particularly relevant. It's wonderful to see how beauty has become more inclusive, with people discovering and embracing what works best for them personally, rather than following a one-size-fits-all approach." Amazon Beautyverse isn't just about beauty trends — it's about the people who shape them. As a creator, being part of this journey with Amazon means having a front-row seat to how beauty in India is becoming more expressive, inclusive, and community-driven.' – Yashi Tank, Creator. The event showcased premier beauty brands including Maybelline, Bella Vita, Wishcare, Hyphen, CeraVe, Pantene, L'Oreal Paris, Axis-Y, Tir Tir, Innisfree, Laneige, Makeup Revolution and many more. Visitors experienced exclusive Prime Day preview launches and participated in masterclasses featuring upcoming beauty tech innovations. As Prime Day approaches, Amazon Beautyverse stands as a reflection of Amazon's broader commitment to reshape beauty retail in India - blending technology, community, and creator-led storytelling to deliver a richer, more meaningful shopping experience.
