to take through like one of the event which you've done I think last November so I will take Through the entire journey of when I met client what did I speak how did this come up how the mood Boards of a event and then how do we transform so I'm going to share some of nice videos and some some are while working I want I I know uh most of us would be interested if you if you watch a movie so once the movie is done when you get up and you want to get out

of the theater this the stories behind the uh shoot goes on and we all stand there and We wanted to see those glimpse of it so basically I will take you to the journey of what happens behind more and what happens I will take you to the both the both sides of the coin so this is a wedding and uh we met the client I know I know this bride I've done her sweet 16 birthday party some seven8 years ago and and then the father turns out comes comes to us and say we need to

plan a wedding and I want a wedding where nobody ever has witnessed I know this brief every client does it but for such kind of a big brief you need budget you need budget and uh so this client had that kind of a capacity and they know us very well and we are known in doing Larger than Life huge sets so we went for a brief I met the bride and the groom more than that the father was father and mother of the bride and groom were very uh you know I saw the house very

aesthetically done They are traditional but yet clossy you know but the Deep Roots are very traditional I I live from South India I I'm from Hyderabad so I'm I come from a very traditional Brahman family so the roots of South is very strong with me I grew up and that is like one added Advantage for me when I'm designing a traditional weddings we also do a lot of contemporary but when weddings comes in you know that's our one of the strongest base so when I went to the house I could See how many of you

know the Shri chakra so I saw a beautiful art a Shri chakra which they said that uh they got it from Vietnam and you know uh they they like lot of uh what do you say uh when I was talking to the bride's father he likes a lot of history you know he was talking about palaces they are hoteliers they own goonda Resorts so they understand lot of design Aesthetics so then we saw they gave us a Bare land it's like an empty canvas which is just facing towards a l uh a lake in Hyderabad

which is very ruggard in bad shape so we have to do the set there the wedding there so we have seen that we met the client and then we have come with our first mood board of how the wedding is going to be and we made a 3D and we called uh the uh can you see my screen guys yes we can So we call this as a Celestial Palace if you see lot of North in India North has a lot of Palace South you have temples but we wanted to build a South [Music] Indian

South Indian dominated Palace so where we want to take lot of North uh the inspiration but the treatment is going to be more of sou so when you see this first image and then these are the color tones color palette What we wanted to use those traditional South Indian if you see these the Sprints are like typical you know and you're going to have a lot of consoles the brass accessories and floral shades of Pinks and purple Reds so we we will we will use when you go to a palace you see when you're walking

in you see few a cute table and a chair and then you see a uh a diary on It and we've we made those uh those books inut prints so we went into uh too much detailing when you're walking in we wanted this kind of experience yeah these are the kind of brass props that we wanted to use and we've created few water bodies so we wanted water bodies to be you know like this and these are the kind of rugs we wanted to use the table Arrangements you know the Typical little South Field this

was our first and we thought we will have some scroll and we wanted to write the entire journey of the celestial Palace what is this Palace is all about and uh we made few uh the these are the gazu we wanted to make four royal gazibo in the palace like you know people can sit all around the sofa but yet see the uh the Mand these are the kind of paintings what we wanted to use in the gazu So these are little details and once we get into the Food Zone hope I'm I'm audible I

mean I'm talking yes yes yes you are okay so I'm just and guys if I am little faster slow somebody wants to see something if anybody can take speak out then it'll be great yes so this is how we wanted the dining to be so this is how the furniture and this is an internet reference uh so far which I really liked It and we thought we have to make this for the celestial Palace we thought we will use something like these these chairs so far so this was the first cut uh client actually liked

it like you all how you feel clueless they're also clueless this is all good but how is the entry going to look how is the passage how is the celestial Palace you're telling I know what is in my mind I know my art director knows what is in his Mind I had to show a lot of references to my art Department uh to get what we want we wanted those renderings so I will show you the renderings uh bmit I want you to help here okay the 3D is in the in the no not in

downloaded that no no it's there in The Zo okay this is okay okay right can you hear the music [Music] A [Music] n [Music] the [Music] [Music] [Music] sorry so guys remember this shot this shot please remember we have made exactly the same shot in real [Music] the [Music] oh [Music] [Music] yeah so that was the 3D so this entire project when I met for for the first time cine uh I think for the wedding we had six months of time six and a half months of time remember so a presentation taking a mood board

took us Around 10 to 12 days and then this 3D took us another 15 days to make the render you know how how this should look and all and once this is done uh we give them a a line drawing of how is it going to look this is the entry these are two water bodies once you come inside turn towards left this is that Royal passage those two blue ones are water body when you walk in in between left And right are the sofas we thought initially we do two lounges the but end up

ended up doing they liked it more than we ended up doing four and this is how the Manda placement with different levels and this is the food area with with three different heights this is the zero level this is 1 and A2 ft this one is 22 and this is 3 ft in height so this is total uh 2 acres of land uh 100,000 square fet one lakh Square feet so this whole land is so raw that we had to level it up with lot of using cranes and Proclaimers and we have leveled filled mud

around 8 ft and made it full flat and then we made a entire platform to create to give that kind of a palal feel so once this is done we go up with uh we come up with a 2d layout where they can see you know this is how you enter you walk when you're walking in one side is the wall and the second one Is the open uh Corridor where while guest guests are walking in it'll be like a surprise they can see little bit of something huge Palace and then they enter in between

they walk then they feel this Palace so so you know design mood board 3D is just 10% of what we only achieve 10% client will like the next phase is budgeting such kind of a huge event we thought initially we'll do outdoor then We came in indoor we we thought we'll do indoor and we came in outdoor so budgeting such kind of a event is massive you really need to have lot of experience if you go if you miss out on anything else that going to shoot up like 30 lakh 40 lakh or 50 lakh

rupees it's very very important that you break up your entire event we always break up our entire event into different zones structure uh the decor comes in Structure then comes in Furniture then comes in uh the tent house sound light your generators uh and then your washrooms your carpets so it's going to be breaked it the the entire thing breaked into different things and we work on individual budget where and then client wants oh no I don't want this oh I increase this so which is very important where we give a clearcut idea for this

kind of event this much of flower I want to use it if you want to Decrease it uh so how do we do it how do we achieve it so this is what goes into lot of planning and then once we go go into the budget then we take the budget approval now I'll show you a video I'll show you video of a finished product then we will come back into the production details questions from you guys so I'll show you the uh uh we had uh before I show you this uh 24 24 hour

36 hours before this was this is a November no way in November rains in Hyderabad suddenly 36 hour before I think especially 24 hours before it started a mad rain this is two acres of land this is not a small place and I will tell you what all went through and how did we turned around the entire thing and made this wedding one of the biggest in South India I say in India this I should say this is I proud to say that this is one of the Masterpiece that was created by us with lot

of it's just not one man I Don't want to take credit I know I'm the one who's been leading it but there are a lot of people our art Department our furniture uh the ones who's done the platform and lighting the lighting designers the florist one of the best in the industry has been used for this wedding let me show you the video can you see it guys yes yes we can yeah we can see this is this is zoom this is in such way that I'm speaking to my laptop and my myself I'm checking

some Of my pictures because I don't know you guys are there so hope everybody is seeing yes everyone is seeing they they're even putting in the chat box feels like huge set of Bali movie some incredible some said awesome I I'll just check this those messages later so you can now I'll run through the entire video that's the [Music] land slowly started building it you can see that's my art Department gets the Entire art that's the Bright's father mother we were leveling The Landing in lot of sand days and 62 hours 62 days we worked

on this site the production we used huge 100t to this [Music] all oh [Music] [Music] [Music] and uh uh wipe it with a cloth whatever Okay she is the plan send somebody for the buckets enough sponges to do it and all we need a lot of sponges I already called for 30 more people to join [Music] oh [Music] [Music] [Music] oh [Music] [Music] All sh [Applause] yes so that was the uh the actual thing what we so how did you guys feel do you see any difference between the 3D what we showed how I explained

you about how is the celestial Palace what we imagined was better than it was better than [Laughter] 3D so so see uh in 16 and a half years what I what I learned was the details are very important every smallest of the detail counts that shows the Excellence so that shows the difference between how I always feel is when you see something when you see something uh you like it you will sit and clap but you see when you see something W automatically the person the auditorium will stand up and clap so that's the difference

between Good and wow so this good and wow comes in with the details so the smaller details what you get into so this is what I believe in when we are doing it and you should have the best team every department has to be the best one with super experience if you see it 24 hours before it's raining two acres of land we covered entire thing with like you know you see how a cricket suddenly these all people come up covering the Thing we covered up with the entire sheets we were seeing every day what

is the chances of rain what is the percentage of rain A Day prayer the covers are purchased to cover two of land it cost you around 16 and half to 17 lakh rupees worth of ptin Cs and you we've planned Flex so we planned a star Flex we wanted to have that marble look if you if you have to plan that and you need to have a Super solid platform which is called a studio centry it is almost like a a slab it's six times expensive than your normal event production platform and when you do

that platform on top of the layer would be a waterproof ply a green ply what we use that's why in the video when you're seeing people are mobbing it or else if you don't use a green ply a waterproof then your venile sticker will not stick onto it once it is you have a huge rain so these kind of Small details if you don't know if you're inexperienced your entire event is Za you cannot do a platform covered with the marble then your entire feel of the entire set is gone and when you do a

staff lless you need to do a reverse sprinting you should not have water where you slip people will slip and fall and all my lighting every light is planned underneath the platform there Are there are thousands of cables running in so I cannot pour the water down if I so what we did we made some small holes in the Ed es of the entire place where if it rains and you're mobbing in it goes out that's the reason in the video I were telling purchase we purchased thousands of sponges where you sponge it and take

it out buckets water going in then imagine the kind of Manpower which we would have used in two acres Insane every the whole plan you will have a great turbulence so when you have a turbulence when you are a master then you know how to control the turbulence if you are inexperienced you will leave hands with you everybody is going to crash so now I will take you to some of the details where were talking about the Shri chakra yantra when I saw in the house then I said our art Department Usually in South you

put lot of gods so we wanted to have that AA where in the Shri chakra it is it is told that all the gods and godesses are inside the sh CH so that's the power of it then we had a Lotus so when you put a lotus in South we we Whenever there is a Kalan we say it's sitaram Kalan or lakmi Kalan so we say the bride is Lakshmi lakmi means Lotus so we had that Lotus and the thing and uh anant padava Swami which is Limitless so we wanted to have a palace But

a South Palace so you see uh I'll show you some of the you see this you see any of the the picture of anant padmanaba Swami this is a very famous temple in India I don't know how many people have gone the one of the door has opened that there is lot of gold and there are seven more doors yet to open it's a mysterious Temple which very powerful so we wanted to create this and we wanted to create a life size so when you're making it Bigger and bigger the details are everything and especially

if you see this padmanaba Swami uh his nose is very important and I a very big devote of him since my uh since my formatting ages so his nose is very sharp I used to go to the set make sure that is like sharp and as it the picture and all and I used to make the art Department go mad so I used to sit stand you know seat in all angles is it is it the way it is coming the way It looks so now I'll show you in whichever you see in the morning

how good it looks the gold color so I want this gold to be seen but yet the set also to be seen if you see my set background color you can see both am I right yes that's and the and the flooring is so seamless it's not some random Flex which is done you see the screw is also done you see the smallest Details the painting So now I'll show you just be here I'll just show you uh while this is yeah Shan sorry to you know cut you daa has asked what material was used

for correct I'm going to come come coming there so initially what we do is if you can see this that's the artist who's doing this we make a PO of it so I'm saying that see I want the nose to be Straight so he just corrects it the artist corrects it so many times so basically we make a mold of it and then we do it's a fiber inside is an iron we do fiber so this is a mold you see the nose and eyes wow so it's it's guda face so you will have that

nose is very sharp in tirupati when you go you can see it these artist are amazing here so that's our working space when When we are working in how does it you know so that's his head on the top kitum what they're making in so initially we make this but we make a a fiber mold out of it out of this and see see the drawing you can see this drawing initially yeah and this is how we Dy it so that's the pillar the pillar die has been taken and they're making it finish I'll also

show you how the pillar uh see those are the Pillars so it's like print we taking out of it so that's how the die the fiber pillar D comes out of it and so this is how they're making the fiber you know fiber fill with the details that's our Master pillar so we have every day 450 Manpower working in different departments moulders fiber workers Welders Carpenters the designer every day this this is the major first pillar what they do it that's the details of the pillar we do with Po and then we take a fiber

die and out of that I can take how many number of you want 500 pillars I can take a print of 500 pillars but every 100 pillar the detail goes so we don't use more than 80 out of one mold I only use 80 pillars so these are the pill molds Which have taken so this is one panel how it look the passage panel and into X how many number of times we make it so we make a master copy of it I see it with the details and say oh okay this is what we

want yes you can so these are the details behind the scenes of it and uh now also want to show you when we go to those Furniture houses we see these oh okay I liked it so we thought we will change this we will repaint and we Change this and have some South Indian kind of a design this is the combination we wanted to have in the passage while you're walking in the uh in the central aisle so we do a lot of uh go down I really like this old kind of thing which we

finished it we went to lot of furniture houses everywhere and this is the first time that pillar color coloring is done see how many people are LIF ing one Pillar we had 780 pillars in the entire set can I ask a question yeah please go ahead uh I didn't get the part of where you said print the pillars like it's I get the part where you said you print the pill you said printing this what we do we we take a we we make a mold like if you see those Ganesh chaturti when they make

the V so they make a mock of it okay and we put fiber inside it okay and then you take it then the Pillar comes out we take in two bits of half and fit it up so inside is the hen outside is the fiber so these are all fiber pillars okay so what you have seen let me just take you this see this is fiber can you see it you can see nut and bolts yeah so this is a mock this is a mock what they make out of it and they and they do

lot of the fiber uh this they they pour all this Fiber into it and take a print out of it you see this yeah please yeah sorry if you see this yeah so this so these are the pillars out of mold which you have taken out this all F yeah go ahead so you said you don't print more than a at a time because the B is lesson right yeah one mold when you make you're making it too many times the details of the face in each say Suppose there is a there is a Face

of a goddesses or anything else there are details you do too many times you lose that fine finish that's how we always prefer we don't do more than 80 so that's how we car another mold right after 0 no yeah you see now when in the video we will do multiple moles so my work is going on if you see one minute this is one pillar mold which is going on parallely you see this mold is going on left and then right you see two molds we'll do it Off so we doing this and such

a big production so we don't want to take a CH chance you know you see how this is the site one of the pict picture video I've taken it on the site during the works are going on from a mobile see how huge is it okay okay thank you hi Shan RI here I just adding to the question that dsha asked so when you said that you're printing out of these Moles um these moles are so when you're taking a print are you taking the actual pillars over the mold or it is like a hollow

and you're putting it inside like how does that really work it's a hollow you see this there is an iron pipe inside okay so this this this fiber is in two parts combined and then you take so don't I called it for you to understand a print basically you do the solution inside the fiber solution inside that mold and it's Like a yeah so it's more like an empty U I don't know a box kind of a thing for example of a certain shape and then you fill it in with the material and then you

pull it shall I tell you one thing maybe sometimes you use your hand uh know you see on the internet so they put a solution you put a hand on it inside fingers you remove it so there is a hello in shape of your hand and they throw some liquid into it and you take out you get the hand out of it it's the Same way with this where we put a solution fiber solution in it and then the fiber pillar comes out of it when it is a hall it has to be strength enough

so the actual actual uh uh the entire thing if you see here is standing inside the rod the iron Rod it's standing on the rod so for the rod you are decking up like a pillar so the pillar is not taking the weight inside iron is taking the weight and it's all Iron trust if you see it and you have one pill Which is like popping up if you see H that one gets inside this okay so pillar it's it's standing in like this see it's standing like this so but the rod is coming up

and this is fixed in such way okay yeah I this I I'm now clear and also one more thing yeah so when you said everywhere you're seeing here there is something popping up the iron Rod yes everywhere so this goes and fix inside it so it is all the finishing all top is like a fiber and we Mold the fiber into whatever the way we want it to look like a rock like a pillar anything yeah please go ahead with your next question yeah so um so when you said die you meant the mold right

which we would use to kind of build multiple of these yeah okay got it yeah I think that that's all from my side thank you so this are some of another videos we're lifting in one of those spillars with cranes we use 100 ft 120 ft this uh construction uh so the Time we save lot of time and uh this is how it was looking it look from the sky where we covered all these Black Sheets that's the mup and you see two of the people are doing something on top of the M see how

high tiny this car looks imagine about the scale of it sir I have one question yeah uh sir so uh your team plan and this before I mean the the tarp and Everything or or was it last minute so you managed everything like that so see you you know in India generally in any country predictions are not 100% right so November is like a no rain no way so but when 10 days 12 Days prayer when we are checking in it was showing rain we didn't wanted to take a risk we wanted to have a

backup plan and then we spoke to client and they took some budget approvals and see this how is it on the Day okay sir so you all planned a week before for this contingency see see the water yeah yeah yeah of course oh okay planning is everything so we thought we were guessing when it will rain we don't know see the flex is already done the water is just sir and as you said that uh that uh your team used the waterproof ply for this so was it was it before beforehand also the waterproof fly

or or because of the Weather weather conditions you thought of going this way any outdoor by default okay okay default that is in our checklist by default whether it rains or not when we are doing outdoor we mentally prepare that It Will Rain okay okay our planning goes on like that this is cres and cres of rupees of things so you have to plan so we're not stopping the work the greens and everything is going on with taralin but it's raining so we cannot Waste time this is not like a movie shooting oh look today

it is raining you'll do it tomorrow you know how Indians are particular about all these lights are covered so I have a question question yeah yeah um so what was the budget of this wedding and this is the only only before you go ahead this is the only answer I will not do it online okay but this this one thing is stuck in my mind that what did you do About the set after the wedding was over like it's a huge set two acres of set right what did you do after the wedding we dismantled

it in next seven days what and uh so I gave an idea asking client do you want to retain this and let's have a contract and let's try to sell this for other weddings so the bride's father said I don't want anybody to repeat this so I have signed a contract for one year that we not going to repeat the set to anyone so he Dismantled it so if it is there so people of his relations or somebody I get some weddings there and now this picture if you see only you see that Brides picture

and somebody who has to repeat this it's a damn high high budget and then somebody is going at that budget I will also not do this instead of celestial Palace I'll do Anor Temple why will I do this I'm done so who who want when you're Repeating then they will ask it for a lesser price and he doesn't client don't want it I want this to be exclusive for my daughter and what about the props that you have used the furniture you talking about Furnitures and all we leave it to the vender whom we hire

for so it's all it's all how experienced you are dealing with that thing so where I buy it I sell it for 50% to him where he uses for another event saying that hey look this I used For Celestial Palace and those sofas are very famous in Hyderabad now that it's the like the most running pieces what we made so like that they'll use it we use lot of fabrics we use lot of customized carpet if you see uh where is this so that's the carpet design what we gave and uh that's the 3D we

said how is it going to look actually this is how it looks seamless Is amazing so these are the consoles what we converted into godowns what You' have seen it's so beautiful like there's in a mind that how will I do it and when I'm going to do this thing in my life so you see this so there a lot of lights which popping up from down there is no single wire you see it and yes you mentioned everything was underground like below the yeah True this are some of the pictures see the about the

statues that you made and I don't Ed for any other events until and unless is the budgets are like magnumopus okay so that this was a high scale the most high scale wedding that we can think of yeah yeah so I would like to show you one picture um yes so this is the what vendor has when I saw it I was like let's use This in my team sir this is looking so bad what can we do with this so it's all about how you can finish a product and use it that's the one

so available product like how do you change it and use it so these are the these are the sofas what we made new can you can you guys hear me yes just all struck in the in the images that Speechless so so you know I'll also show you some of those uh yeah so this is the internet reference picture what we showed them hey look I want to make something this kind of s first and that's what we made and this are not you know I want it to look a little bit old and I

wanted little shades of it if you see it so we get into so much of detail hours and hours of together you Know sitting talking murals what murals so all full south south field so you see Shan you see all the small details you see this this is South Indian Dia and you know I will show you while while we were you're seeing these brass ones so we go for shopping uh we do so much of sampling like this we go to Street so my wife chitra is the styling director so basically the secret of

this Entire things like she Styles the entire thing and we make flower samples so how many of you like the diamond necklace so I know somebody's ping I just want to show you one picture uh so check this that's the 3D what we have shown that's what we've executed yeah so one more question from my side Um before you start this project get this project have you done anything in smaller scale um and also how many years experience you had it because what is going mind how did you get this confident and after you got

this project how did you uh you have find the resource it is Big work it is not easy work uh so a lot of things going on mind you already had the resource on your hand or after you got this project you Go and find the resource so it is even every single um just nearly like we need to uh my assumptions at least 20 to 20 department has to work on this project so that's why just I'm thinking how did you get all the resource so you already tie up with them or just can

you please explain that sir so I will tell you something so everything is a process so it cannot be overnight the the way it is shown in the movies or anything it won't happen Overnight if you want to fly first you you should learn how to walk I know this all you guys would have heard about this I'm repeating it it is the same process walk you run you speed up you you run such a way that you you run till taking off that uh take off speed you take off and then you reach above

the clouds it takes time it's a process so I started you I showed you before I don't know whether you've seen it or not Before the session is starting I showed my video you search Shan mad and you can see me me as a youngster just out of college started event management as I was talking I don't know how to talk and but still yet I've made a video and posted online saying hi I'm sh I do birthdays I go do corporate events and all then I took a stream of wedding planning and I started

focusing on that and then it depends on individual personality So so so this basically event planning event planning is something the one the one who does this should have an attitude of speaking to a a vendor labor on site see These Guys these guys who working in they come for that 550 rupees 650 rupees hello yes a day and and and I should know how to manage these guys speak to them yet I should also know who can spend money for a daughter wedding for one day A multi-millionaire even planner is a 360 degree guy

where he should be able to work with all the down the mediocre the vendors the top vendors the multi-million so this is not something easy no I know that because search on the Google it says that the most toughest professions in the world I think we stand five We Stand five the most stressful jobs on the Globe you know the kind of stress what I've G gone through when this was this at this scale and next 30 36 hours is the event yes it's it's you you cannot do anything it's it's exactly the same what

I showed in the layout yeah got it yeah so yeah please so this so this is the difference what we show 3D when see 3D sometimes you cannot show everything but when you're getting there lot of improvements we Keep doing it you know if you see do in the day out there are a lot of lights which are small lights tiny lights giving the depth so now you you see it there everywhere there are lights so it's the lighting designer it's the florist it's the carpet artist it's the fiber work it's the entire plan so

there is one guy or a group of six seven eight guys visioning About one project and making sure that exactly it is happening the same way so that's the sir I have a question yeah please um so when you're working on such a grandure set you know you have that kind of budget so whatever you plann on the mood boards or whatever 3D you rendered you were able to execute it uh through a lot of detailings but when we are working our way up to that level you know sometimes we don't have that Kind of

budget to execute the exact detailings or you know we don't have like you know the client doesn't have that kind of budget so how do you ensure that whatever you are planning like your mood boards and everything you're able to execute that aesthetic like sometimes we think something we plan but due to that you know the budget the lack of detailings we're not able to execute that there are two things of a coin here if you ask me now if you ask me Shan Right now I don't do weddings with no budget client is calling

me we have achieved something where they know that I'm super expensive and expensive for a reason okay now if you ask me how can I achieve Quality quality can never be achieved compromising is what I feel that's my so what I say my client if you have a budget less budget say suppose you have only 40 lakhs worth of flower budget then I say Let's only do M and some portions and some portions we leave it I prefer rather than doing a quality work than a quantity so that's one aspect if you're asking me a

question now so when I am coming in slowly as a small planner and all where and then I have a chance my attitude was always I on the detail and that little bit finishing some finishing needs planning and pre-informed to the vendor so those finishings you can get it definitely any good design needs a Budget so I see the I tell clients you know and there's no the comparison should be with the budgets horse to horse and Donkey to donkey horse and donkey look alike but performances are different until and unless you sit on it

and sit on the race you do not know they look alike so definitely I cannot say when there is no budget how will you achieve quality you cannot achieve quality without Budget but instead of doing 40 foot counters you know how I design I'll tell you let me open this uh okay so it's just a spontaneous uh thing okay so you have a 200 ft running feet of buffet which we you have to do it so if your Buffet counter is like this which is costing you XYZ where the person is standing here and serving

if you have to make 40 if the client has only budget of 10 or 15 then I I do an empty three and I do another counter Here you can cut short the budget right but yet you can get the Aesthetics definitely all the counters will look beautiful but when a client doesn't have you should know how to manipulate with the budget is what I feel hello yeah yes yes yes that's what yeah that's what I feel so yeah is there any other questions that you guys would like to ask yeah uh sorry adding to

what savine said uh maybe there are are Certain props that we have showed in our uh mod boards which we were not able to find it for some reason like we did try finding the same exact ones but we couldn't in that case is it okay to for us to show one thing in the mood board and not achieving it later for the client in the starting phases I mean like so what you have to do before you give a mood board you have to do some homework you have to show pictures what are already

existing what you can tweak And then show it to them so it's not just the references the pict or the internet come on you should be a street smart when I am designing something see I will always not have a budgets like this I'll also work on little bit mediocre these are like something in a year two I'm at do correct so you should be smart enough first you should know what is are all available in your city what props what Detailing oh you want to do it on a you want to work on a

a porcelain Paradise you should know what props are available what can be achieved okay so so that's very important that you need you do a lot of homework you just can't just serf on the Pinterest beautiful pictures keep those on the presentation and show it everybody does it I know 90% people do it go to Pinterest open screenshot save it put on the board but you should know What to put what not to put which is very important and what to talk and what not to talk actually what not to talk is very important then

what to talk if you forget what to talk no problem next time you can talk if you talk what not to promise client you are done that's the dead end you just have to jump so yeah sub you need to do a lot of research and then do that way I had a question regarding this project of yours uh so as you said that Uh that the sofa design was was made and and then you produced it so you produced all of those I mean they were made from scratch or were they bought in some

kind or rented so when I showed my presentation I showed two sofas one are matching closer to this theme and one is exact what I want I showed it to client and said see this is what matching but this is what I'm imagining can justify 100% to make this will cost you this much and before going There I spoke to vendor bud can you make this exactly sir okay then I go I give budget plan a plan B oh sometimes client says I want plan a in this in flower I want Plan B in carpet

I want plan a there I want Plan B there I don't want plan only so when you're going in you are you should load all your bullets okay so also what was done if they were made from scratch what was Done with those sofas after the event simple the moment this this event six months when I'm working with the two days in this I will sell this off okay I will tell the sofa vendor hey look buddy I have done something new for this event and this is the scale of the event which is going

to be all over do you want to purchase this they'll be in line in my office to buy those and I will tell take it at a best price next two three events I will use this in my events don't worry Go then they will buy it so it's how you see event planner first is a marketing guy you should know how to Market your product all right okay thank you sir anything else guys any questions you have I have one more question yes please yeah hi Shan R here again the one who spoke about

fibers and dies with you okay yeah RI please tell me yeah so uh I have a question which is outside of what we just discussed about the Set uh but Um so we were recently taught about the types of seatings Etc that we would use uh in our projects so while going through them I saw one kind of seating called as a t-shaped seating right amongst the others that we learned about um uh I wanted to understand I I didn't really understand how and when would I use that kind of sitting uh what I could

only imagine is maybe in the banquet area or in the food area is when we could use a setup like that so uh if you Can just help me understand some um uh instances when we could use a seating like that seating like that are you talking about the round one all around seating yeah so I I when you were showing some of your uh designs I could notice that in the main area around the mup uh we were using something called as a U-shaped design right uh where there was a mup at the start

and then the seating around is was like a u- shaped Right so that was one kind of seating when we went to the banquet area we saw those round tables which is more like the banquet kind of the seating that we generally have okay so uh one such kind of seating that I could identify this you're talking about yeah seatings yeah so these are different kinds of seatings seating arrangements or styles that we would call right which we would fit in at different points in our uh Sets so I I saw something called as a

t where in the the tables are arranged uh in the shape of a tea and the chairs are around it so I maybe you could uh help me with some instances where we could use a seating like that so it's all spontaneous see it's an empty canvas so it it all depends on the artist if if it is sh he's going to sketch it in different way if it is you you'll sketch you have to learn see basically layout is the first impression The layout is like heart of it so I'll just show you I'll

just show you a a simple layout yeah this is on the August 10th which I'm doing event this is the layout of it okay so if you see it my layout is like this this is the entry passage and left and right side are the lounges and these green ones with that shape I am making a new such kind of a shape tables where the green part is the Floral the Hedge is the one which people can use it to put the drinks got it right okay but this is the reference what I have from

here I imagined a table in a cocktail lounge this is two layers that is one layer the depth of here is small the there I'm doing a larger depth and in between I'm doing floral so the this base is little more bigger so I imagined it that way so now you sir you tell me I I'll imagine imagination is unlimited so I'm using that here with the same kind of sofas which are already existing and the flooring is different but the moment they come in the city every every time they they would have seen the

furniture but they wouldn't have seen this furniture this one correct yeah it's just the production of those eight tables which are 14 ft in and then different kind of a treatment which is done so that's it so then I'm going here and there is a bar and this is the kind Of sofas which you're uh doing it you know so it's the Aesthetics of your entire seating so my this seating is like the one which in between is a 3 feet this one is a 2 feet that one is one ft in high and you

see steps are all in all directions where everybody can come up and come so layout is like everything to show how is it overall your look Aesthetics of that you know right yeah that some furniture is like Everyday research you should keep researching about things and you know if you see my full of this is all about uh references yeah any more questions [Music] hello yes sir one doubt sir till what extent the client has a right to change the patterns throughout the event or uh in the you you got the point right sir absolutely

in the initial St after Everything was done everything was done if the client says that I don't like this like that at what extent he has a right sir so it depends on attitude terms and what level of planning company which you re reached in it depends on that if you go to a normal store you will speak about all your details if you go about a mediocre designer you will talk a little bit but when you go to Sabas you will not negotiate pay the money and just Come in you're going to SAI because

you know that he's super good at what he's doing so now we have reached into one level initial stages and all we have learned we have burnt our hands we went into stress so what we do is we give sampling of everything hey look this flooring is like this hey look round table and this is going to be like this this is going to be like this and then I will not listen to anybody's Daddy I say I'm Sorry and my most of my clients don't ask because we don't get into that level the details

are already given you know the layout you know how is the sofa you know what is the flower and rest is all you're believing in me you cannot hold my hand and make me sketch then it'll become a monkey or a donkey not a Picasso but you got a confidence sir now as this position it's not easy for you but we are Learners we are initially we are learning this but how we can tackle The situation simple always go with super details this is the take a piece of it this is how it's going to

do this is a velvet this is a color of the drape of the color this is the flex this is the design this is tentatively and please tell sir this is all references of what we doing in actual things might change here and there we won't be able to do it in the 11th Hour write a contract get him Signed this you can do for small event or big event for Learners sir starting yeah whatever you can do even Learners also so when you're getting in Learners you will Learners shouldn't Learners should learn and then

start the business you do mediocre this is what happens first you have to see everybody thinks that okay taking screenshots of some 10 20 companies works and all and taking the numbers of few vendors you cannot become A owner of a company you need experience you need to EXP experience the turbulence you need to experience handling it then only you have to come and open your thing so you go with a half a knowledge then this is what happens so you need to learn get out work for a while to know all this because it's

a lot of difference theoretically and on ground obviously this is all easy you take a screenshot you will not be able to do this yes of Course you will not be able to do seamless of same uh Heights of water body these are all temporary water bodies what weight can that fiber take water should not leak or else this all goes off flex so many details so many details you see I just want to show you one video uh yeah so out of this entire thing this is my favorite video so you saw the 3D

right I asked you guys to remember so When I shared this video to few of the people they said this is also looks like a 3D so I made my videographer shoot the exact this is in the afternoon 4:00 4:30 sunset time yeah so yes anything else details actually videographer for the decor uhhuh daa is asking do you have your own Videographer uh for the decor what are you saying that's like a basic thing right from the beginning the day I go till the project is done video and photographers are behind me I have a

team which is making that's the reason I'm able to show you all these things so somebody is working on the details this is only the elephant uh there's a reel only on the elephant making it [Music] [Music] somebody who makes some this kind of uh reals for us yeah [Music] so I have all the time some details you have lot of details this is only the this really [Music] so I'll have details of This excuse me sir yeah sorry can you show the couple on the stage sir for this exact yeah can you see them

yes U so the guy the groom is an actor he has done one hit movie and he's also done few web series and the girl belongs to a very big family they own luxury resort in Hyderabad so this was just before the fireworks are about to blow I think I have some good pictures Of her I'll share it hello sir yeah please tell me you were there only wedding set up here other functions I am occupied 365 days on wedding here I'm tired I cannot do corporate events no no no Rel wedding only all the

wedding functions yes mendi s cocktail pre- weding bash Pride making ceremony Gro making ceremony we do everything I a question yeah yeah please tell Me uh yes sir uh actually uh can you show us uh the food area which you design and uh the rooms uh for the change for couples and guest what I have to show room for the couples I didn't take pictures and videos of them here because opposite this is their own band opposite to this is their Resort so so this is all the way you know see the cars are coming

and going So this is the resort this is their Resort they own this entire Resort okay so then she she changed there and she has come and this is the food area can you see this yeah I have some pictures of it I'll share uh I think I have them I don't have folder yeah so what I'll do is today or tomorrow I I'll I'll post some nice beautiful pictures Of postings of food area I'll do that yeah S I have a question yeah so this is one picture from the food area see this Absol

look like a tile but this is a starlex yeah please tell me um so uh you shared like you started 16 and a half years ago your journey so we are somewhere at that point right now and throughout your 16 and a half year Journey can you share some of your best lessons or best guidance that can help Us accelerate our process or you know something like you know which can help us grow faster grow faster okay so I don't believe all growing faster so I mean see uh every individual Journey will be different it

might not be the same experience I every day is a learning so initially when I started my career we used to write okay these are the problems in this Event let me make sure that this won't repeat but never repeats but there is some new problem which pops up so so I would I always like to say when you master I you have to master basically when you master when you're a good player you can play in I'm I'm a good sports person so that's why I'm relating it to it and trying to tell you

so that you'll understand if you're a good Player you'll be able to play it at your home ground but if you you master it you can play it in any ground sden Garden London any kind of conditions South Africa they give you bouncers you know what to do so this m Perfection and master it won't happen overnight and speed it happens over a period of time it takes own sweet on time that's what I'm telling you every day is a learning today you learn about platform tomorrow you learn about Lighting next you learn about flowers

next you learn about what flower is good at what season summer oh I not supposed to use this flower this colors are nice then you will learn about every season if you see a store example I I always observe I'm a great Observer I always feel somebody who uh working in this profession or something your details and all will come you should be a great Observer so you see the stores I don't know how many of you observed it every Day you go through these designer stores every 1 month one and a half month you

will see that the colors in the stores and the way it is put up is changed Did You observe sometimes it'll be all yellows and all and after you see after 2 three months it's changed so the color pattern the moods of people keeps changing so you always need to update there is no Harden rule of you know it should be only like this so sometimes it'll be Pastels suddenly the mood changes and you know gets into Sleek pants suddenly it goes into bell bottoms so it changes so you have to you have to modify

according to your you know the way it is happening and you have to this is one way of seeing it the other way of seeing it people who are exceptionally well will create Trend will create Trend so you want to be a Trend Setter or you want to follow the trend and be it so both are good it Depends on your attitude you want to do a trend set so you have to think out of the box not everybody's thinking about so it depends on how is it so we are all there I think there

we around 38 people everybody is different in their mindset if you give an empty canvas and say whatever is in your mind you write we all write very differently so for me porcelain Paradise or a garden is different from what Garden if I Say if I say a garden theme you might think an English garden but I might think a Japanese garden absolute change it's a garden Japanese garden is something different from an English garden so it depends if your client is asking me to do a high te in a garden I'll think in something

other way if there are four photographers you Leave them everywhere everybody shoots in the same bride and groom from different perspective so it depends on individual artist I feel event event management is an art it depends on the guy is the main guy who's catching it that one guy who's thinking about everything but hiring the the the best fine finish brush and the paints and colors what color is it Asian Paint is It Royal paint in that Asian Paint is it expensive color am I getting what color I want so this is all depends on

all those things come yeah anything else any other doubts guys uh sir I have a question can uh when you code the client is there any buffer margin percentage or percent of margin error that you Keep I work on my professional fe uh sir can we meet the chitra man okay yes they want to see you they want to meet come so she's the one who's behind she's a styling director so all those beautiful uh the Lenin the color flower color what has to be there so she's the one we both decide but she's the

one who r rules it hello hi hello chra Ma'am hello glad to meet you hello ma'am meet you how are you ma'am all good all good how are you all we doing great creativ hat off mom so the the mbard the mbard for Celestial Palace uh when we thought about that line so she is the one who did the entire what prop unbelievable but very very empowering and encouraging to have a woman like you taking the lead and running you know a show uh like this Which is just you know has left us speechless thank

about chitra ma'am does she have any background in the styling of all this so so she she she comes from a software background she used to work for ranat that's one of the biggest Staffing Company in the world she worked for 9 years it's a love marriage I met her in a club on a night club on 31st night so I fell in love dated for 4 years and then I married I'm a I'm an absolute vegetarian and she's opposite to that and uh and then later seeing her Interest and all she's always there in

the business but uh that was all behind she was never on board I had my brother and unfortunate I lost him four years back and we both have started this company he used to take care of production Overlook into it and then later chitra had a fashion design uh store called shachi so she's good at cloth selection and all so I identified that she has lot of T taste in it and all and I said why Don't you do it she said what I have to do then I want you to lead The Styling Department

of us then I will take a break and I'll focus on rest all other things PR events that this and all everything you do it I'm always overlooking even now we we have in front of us a s of on the 10th event so she said the she want uh teal blue then I gave the shades of so many shades of teal Blues so we both sit and say oh this looks good this Looks good so we speak and then we take a call on it so it's like yeah I found that like she can

do it and then I started pushing her and now everybody knows her the kind of work what she does so somebody should get an opportunity or either somebody identifies pushes or within fire somebody has so everybody gets an opportunity like that absolutely she to for pushing each other and bringing so beautiful things across to the world Thank you thank you so much yeah really appreciable sir really yeah so this was one one flower inspired by the diamond necklace wow made with so we're doing sampling so how many of you know this again I I I

feel this is kind of a necklace design yeah but this is a b Leaf you see this so so so this has three colors when it is very young so it is this color so you can use this for a Darker share mup like a necklace so yeah and this is shades of Pinks how this white and little bit of pink transforms into pinks and then little dark pinks so we we get into really little bit of details maybe you can use this on the round table this are all sampling that we're doing at client's

house what are the kind of flowers what color pattern we'll be Using in so that No Nonsense at the set they know what is what is it coming it costs the sampling will cost we charge client I say I'll do a sampling much it will cost it's better to have so that you'll know it or else you leave it me plan a plan B so always the coat is in clients the ball is in clients quot let him select what he wants but we will guide so this is what goes in beyond the CC this

is our flower when we working in These are our tents AC tents Kikar did our flower that's my dear friend they do fantastic job with the flowers so me and chitra gets into this once they make these we check personally is this the way what is coming in the way we want so that's me who shooting it I love shooting behind the scenes so that I could share with you all uh the more I share I feel you are more Empowered so that makes me very happy that's how you see a lot of my stuff

on the Instagram whatever you post I I maintain my page personally this is just one we had seven tents like this full of flowers so one question I have where do you get this energy from like after having you know so much to do uh behind uh the uh you know behind one wedding and then having you know the energy to Work on your personal page also see that's interest individual so when I started my say I never wanted to be an event manager I wanted to be an actor so I did my acting training

from H Central University but that didn't work out and then later we got into this business but somehow you know for a for a certain level you'll work for money money gives you inspiration okay anytime let me be very open I don't want to fake it but after a Level of reaching the output gives you kick so when I stand in front of my Mand with the decor if I am satisfied in said yes then my client is jump in seeing that so I have to be happy first I don't care about my client the

moment he signs the contract that's when it starts the the triggering start like how I can give the best where we can develop what we can do what we can achieve more so so we do a lot of research uh me and my wife we both sit Take a lot of screenshot different pictures you see zillions of you see all my thing everywhere is all references I take some of the other reference this is an AI reference what I took so you will see all okay maybe I want uh maybe a bar which really looks

nice you know so I really like this maybe you know it's so every time it's like the thought process yeah keep thinking on so that's the interest what we have In it I get that sir thank you so much question yes hello hi uh sir as you told you have got to this stage that client has a certain level of confidence with you so they don't question you at all because they know what work you have done they know everything you know the quality they can expect but when we start what kind of detailing or

mood board we have to present as in your said okay you have to get the materials also Like get get into details but what is the way of that presentation as you said screens I just wanted to know do you have any example wherein ma'am or you have made a mood board you know maybe for a smaller project or maybe on a smaller scale so we just get an inspiration on how we can present as in client is satisfied because that will be the initial thing we would present before the 3D also Correct so what

you can do is uh I think last time something to show trying to show you some things yes I would like to show you this okay now I'll go you can see my screen guys columus Venture holy sh this is should I say fromia the client had a limited photos right sir this was during just the they wanted something little fil style any second magic unwanted details from Your how many of you know this song so straight [Music] yeah I like this onee I like this this part from the movie did you guys see it

before did you guys see this song honestly uh when I saw this song uh I also thought of this type of stage for hungry whenever I'll get a chance to you know pitch one of my client at that Level so I made this I made it wow so I modified it in different way and then I made this is a budgeted one for the client but yeah so that's the see this this level 2 days I only give like this so I said sir I I like it so we we will let's do some something

like this so those kind of clients they listen whatever I say there's no way that they don't even talk oh you're doing it no problem Then did we achieve or not see so very close to it yeah see so that was my working while while am I working in so so you have to be smart enough I'll tell you what all I can do with this so now this I have this is an half D so if I make a full round I can suspend in the top and I can make the s a central

s point1 and then upside down I make this with the full bulbs and I will make full Glass finish on top of it this will be the dancing of sanit and I will make another round of ceiling with chandeliers and on it imagine I have this so I can make it so you so tomorrow I'll cut it and I'll make it into an entry multiple arches so see it's it's your imagination it's your skill how do [Music] you that's one because not every time you get a Higher client Bud budget so you know I get

into every detail I go there this is PE Co time you want to see the date 16th June 2021 which means it's in lockdown 2021 16 is wave to lockdown and everybody is working with the mask so I'm little distanced just trying to show him this is a CO time during the covid time everybody was On the mask going in so we've done this huge setup and I'm doing the F we getting the fogging done this called fumigation we're getting it done that's the output so it depends yeah you just have to take inspiration you

know and then get the things done yeah anything else you want to you guys want to ask yes I have a question question yes Please okay um so the the video that that you had shown it was an open ground so you you said you it will it took 62 days to make it but uh suppose for example talking about venues like Geo Convention Center or NS do where huge Productions are done how challenging is it because uh considering the wedding month the peak season time there's not much time to do such Grand events like

such kind of grand setups you don't get so much much time so how challenging is It to you know because there I have seen like big Productions and setups being made in an open ground but when you do that like because after bahubali came bahubali theme events were also done in nsci Dome so how challenging is it to you know completing that in very little time and how do how planning planning is everything it's very important do you want me to show how do we plan uh balit yes time we have we have Done one

are you are showing us I just wanted to know how AI tools are important for your research and designing and which of the basic tools that you use regularly for your research see AI is all imaginary world you know what You get in AI only few things which you will be able to achieve not everything which is fake so by this lot of lot of clients will get you know cheated by AI you show beautiful things but you won't be able to execute it only with highend budgets you can issue that kind of things which

which it renders and shows it so you can make a beautiful presentation but I don't know out of which how much how much possible you Will be able to make it so AI I never show presentations in AI reference picture I show I always want to be practical I show my 3D and that 3D I make showing reference we sit we make with a 3D artist guy and we know what I can make what I cannot so like example there are some uh so see these are you can achieve all this so hey you have

the AI presentation give One what is it but I show the presentation not this the one which you made in the have so this is an AI presentation what we made okay African theme it's a tribe wi okay will you be able to achieve this in real real flowers only be this color to artificial and these kind of Shades and all no it you cannot do It only when you have budget you can achieve this see this AI this is the bar counter I can achieve this exactly it matters they they show this end of

the day they will put a flex in front of it so we can take references from the AI presentations and picture but we can make our we can we should put our ideas into the what final so for you AI will render say Suppose uh so this is the bar this is all achievable so you should know what is achievable and what is not so people show this to client where there are a lot of depths and beautiful things and all and what they will do is they will Design some Flex frames and put it

in so will that be the same it won't be the same and some people who doesn't know knowledge think that oh this is what I'm going to Do and they won't be able to get this feel so this is good with the depths in it if you do exact Flex it'll keep that look but you have to tell client that hey look this is a AI presentation see this is the bride and groom sitting for an African body this is it how dreamy and look beautiful presentation you can take budget and come in but you

have to execute it right see all this all Colors this is all very dreamy this but if you do Flex on it then on top you have to do a canvas that's when you get the depth canas is going to be five times s 40 times expensive than a flex but Flex give won't give the depth see this it looks nice beautiful so we make we do a lot of expens can you make this flooring so it's like Aable so AI is all about budger here if is like money we can take ideas and references

from but you have to be you know always fair enough to tell your client hey look this is an AI but we can do like this seeing this you can make your 3D taking a reference show client don't cheat that's what I I always never cheat your client so what basic AI tools that you use I don't use I I'm see not everybody will know any everything but I will I will catch hold of the right guy So we have a team who doesn't work on AI I'll ask I'll ask them to give AI but

after seeing that AI I'll sit with my 3D Guy this is turn this into this is what I tell okay so no tools and all I don't use it we can human yeah we cannot do everything and every you know there is a limit I know about AI how it comes and all but yeah so so even 3 days we have teams which does 3 days I don't sit and H and Do it bra is only ours any other doubts guys yeah I think everybody's so arru already that they don't know what to ask so

we had a good session so I've seen about a project which you been posting there's a lot of things goes behind you know so so that's what I'm trying say when people think when you see when you are flying in business class and all I get trillions of messages on my Instagram uh I get inspired I want to be uh make Intern and I want to come into event management I learn I want to learn and they see this fancy stuff so when I post a picture on the Instagram you know traveling or in a

is everything I believe in planning I believe in detailing you know that you can do it but definitely this is a very stressful business where I thought I will retire from it in next four five years I'm going to give up we done enough so I think I want have time so then I'll only pick up two or three weddings in a Year big ones and relax and do it that's what we've been Uh thinking of it's a very stressful industry you don't have personal life so what is the software you using for the 3D

modeling I can do anything on this Earth choosing the the right person I don't do 3D I don't do software but I get the right person on board which he knows everything my office has a system okay I said buy the most costliest dump in all the uh all the software which they want I don't like hait to wait I don't like Waiting I want my internet to be fast I give them every equipment what the artist want I give all the ideas of what I want he's going to do I don't I get a

dam with what software you want to become a wedding planner you don't want what software I use what AI then I will be an AI tool then I will be a 3D designer I'm a wedding planner we design you ask me about design softwares and all I think you should have another session with only those 3D designing guy Who does it if your interest is you want to become a 3D designer I don't want to get into everything finger I have we have enough works to do it to know curiosity So yeah thank you so
