‘Pearls’ of trinket wisdom
Posted July 20th, 2018, 10:26 AM IST
Minnie hails from a family that loved their jewellery. So, her penchant for semi-precious jewellery dates back to her childhood years. Speaking of her most coveted collection till date; pat comes the reply. “It is my mother’s Japanese Single strand pearl necklace. I have added some larpis beads to add a hint of colour,” she shares. Minnie believes in making jewellery that looks good and feels good. “I have always made jewellery that brings a genuine smile to the face of the wearer.”
Prior to this, Minnie has a successful tryst with advertising. She then tried her hands at sports marketing, which turned out to be stupendous. “I was appointed an Ambassador in India of the International Cricket Hall of Fame in Bowral Australia, an initiative of the Bradman Foundation when it was launched. It was a truly memorable experience. So was signing up Dennis Lillee, the legendary Aussie fast bowler to endorse a seafood brand. I also handled Adam Gilchrist’s business interest for a series in India and got him a lucrative writing assignment. Launching and being awarded the exclusive marketing rights for the first giant cricket screen installed in India at Chepauk in Chennai was another unforgettable experience. It completely transformed instadia viewing for the spectators. My task involved creating a media model since this was a new medium in our country. I marketed it very successfully to key sponsors. It was a trail blazer.” she reminisces.
An enviable clientele and goodwill may have made her a popular name in Chennai; but nothing comes in between quality family time and pursuing her love for adventure. “I have the energy of a five-year-old! I am always looking for ways to satiate my love for adventure.I love travelling and indulging in a series of adventure sports.”
Minnie’s daughter’s Anu, is a popular stand-up comic, better known as the former Lola Kutty. So it is only fair if Minnie gets a taste of great comedy at her daughter’s expense whenever she can. (Pun intended!)
