Ten years an artist. A little over a year building KalaaSiddhi. Told in my own words — by founder Zeel Maniya.
Hello, I'm Zeel Maniya — founder of KalaaSiddhi. This isn't a one-year story, or even a one-day decision. I've been an artist for ten years, creating paintings, wall poster art, and handmade pieces of every kind. A little over a year ago, I decided to bring all of that into one focused craft — and grow it into KalaaSiddhi.
I'm Dhruv Maniya — co-founder of KalaaSiddhi. While Zeel brings every design to life, I look after everything that keeps the brand running behind the scenes: overall management, video editing for our reels and content, and all of our accounts and finance. I also handle HR and marketing management, so the business side stays just as solid as the craft itself.
I'm not new to art — I've been creating for ten years now: paintings, wall poster art, and handmade pieces of all kinds, long before KalaaSiddhi had a name. A little over a year ago, I decided to take that experience and focus it into one craft, and grow it into something of its own. That's how KalaaSiddhi began.
Every design you see is mine — sketched first, never copied. I draw it out on paper, then shape it in clay, adding whatever flowers or materials that particular design calls for. Once it's shaped, it rests for a full day before it's ready to be finished and worn. Fabric pieces take even longer — they ask for more patience, more time, before they truly come to life.
Through all of it, one thing stays the same: every single earring has to be made properly, checked carefully, so that no customer ever opens their package disappointed. That's the promise behind every piece that leaves my hands.
“Every earring has to be perfect — so no customer is ever disappointed.”
— Zeel Maniya, Founder
Ten years ago, I started creating — paintings, wall poster art, anything that let me make something with my own hands.
A little over a year ago, I decided to focus that experience into one craft — and grow it into KalaaSiddhi.
Every piece starts as my own sketch, never copied. Then it's shaped in clay, with whatever flowers or materials that design calls for.
Each piece rests for a full day before it's ready. Fabric designs take even longer — they need extra patience before they truly come to life.
Checked, cared for, and made to be perfect — every finished piece, ready for you to wear.
Thank you for being part of this journey.
