Athiya Shetty Instagram – While we, over time, have learnt to be confident in our own skin and be at our best all the time, Athiya’s (@athiyashetty) outlook is refreshing. “I don’t think I need to channel that confidence all the time. Because it’s important to have days where you’re low and accept that you’re going to have bad days. We are humans first and then we are what we do for work. Over the years, I’ve used vulnerability as my strength. The days when I am vulnerable are the days when I feel I have finally accepted myself as a person, with the flaws, and knowing that things aren’t going to be great. It’s okay not to be okay.” Editor: Rasna Bhasin (@rasnabhasin) Digital Editor: Sonal Ved (@sonalved) Photography & Creative Direction: Porus Vimadalal (@porus.vimadalal) Styling & Art Direction: Prayag Menon (@prayag.menon) Interview By: Adit Ganguly (@ganglyganguly) Editorial Coordinator: Shalini Kanojia (@shalinikanojia) Cover Design: Mandeep Singh (@mandy_khokhar19) Makeup & Hair: Kritika Gill (@kritikagill) / Feat Artists (@featartists) Photography Assistant: Kushal Gandhi (@kusshalgandhi) Fashion Assistant: Vedica Vora (@vedicavora) Artist’s Publicity: Straight Talk Comm (@straighttalkcomm) Athiya is wearing full canvas lined shell pink woolen jacket, Unlined beige/brown pants, Earrings in metal with palladium finish and crystals, all Gucci (@gucci); Mudda chair, Ravi Vazirani Design Studio (@qitabyrvds); Raagmala hand-knotted woolen and silk rug by Tarun Tahiliani, Gordon hand-knotted woolen rug, both Obeetee (@obeetee) #BAZAARINDIA #BAZAARCOVER #Coverstory #GUCCI
