  Inside Rashmika Mandanna's Wedding: Her Makeup Artist Reveals Everything 07.04.2026 48min

  When Rashmika Mandanna’s wedding photos took over the internet, everyone was talking about how she looked. And today on the Masoom Minawala Show, we have the woman who created this magic - Tanvi Chemburkar. I sat down with the artist behind one of the most talked-about bridal looks in recent times — a look that proved something we often forget: sometimes, less really is more.But this conversation goes far beyond one viral moment.Tanvi takes us inside what it actually takes to create beauty at the highest level — from getting a bride ready in under an hour, to making instinctive decisions under pressure, to choosing restraint over excess when the whole world is watching.We also talk about what you don’t see: - The no-phone wedding that allowed everyone to truly be present. - The cultural details — like the traditional bindi and black tikka — that almost didn’t make it, but changed the entire look. - And the emotion behind the moment that made it feel so real, and so impactful.From working with some of the biggest names in the country, including the Ambani family, to stepping onto global stages like the Met Gala, Tanvi opens up about the pressure that comes with her craft — where every look is photographed, analysed, and judged instantly.And then, we simplify it all.Because the truth is — most women don’t need more makeup. They just need to understand what actually works.In this episode, you’ll learn:Why you might be wasting money on foundationHow to choose the right concealer for Indian skinThe biggest makeup myths most of us still believeSimple, effective hacks for dark circles, fuller lips, and a flawless baseWhy skin prep is the most important step (and the one most people ignore)One of my favourite parts? Hearing what celebrities are really like behind the scenes — away from Instagram, in their most unfiltered, human moments.Watch this episode if you want to:Go beyond viral beauty and understand the craft behind itSimplify your makeup routine without compromising resultsLearn from one of India’s top celebrity makeup artistsSee beauty in a more intentional, less performative wayWatch the full episode now.Social Media: My Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/masoomminawala/My LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/masoomminawala/?trk=public_profile_browsemap&originalSubdomain=inAbout Me: A global influencer and entrepreneur, who aims at bringing Indian fashion on a global platform and popularity.
