Chikkalasandra, Made Up Beautifully
Chikkalasandra, in South Bengaluru, is made up of family houses and modest walk-up flats, and its weddings, upanayanams and Gowri-Ganesha gatherings revolve around those homes and the halls close by. Households that type makeup artist near me in Chikkalasandra mostly want their daughter dressed under her own roof, not driven across town at dawn. Aarav comes to the house and makes his station there.
On film, television and advertising sets Aarav works to strict call sheets, and that discipline carries over to family functions: he arrives with a clear plan, keeps to the time the priest has fixed and leaves the bride with what she needs for touch-ups. Reaching Chikkalasandra is folded into each home visit, and the reporting hour plus any travel fee are agreed over WhatsApp.

Chikkalasandra guide
Family functions in a close-knit South Bengaluru locality
The pace here is unmistakably old South Bengaluru: households settled on one plot for decades sit beside young couples who only just collected their flat keys. Celebrations follow the calendar of the area: weddings in the auspicious months, thread ceremonies, seemantha for an expectant daughter, and festival evenings where everyone visits everyone. Most of these unfold indoors, so rooms overflow by mid-morning, and whoever is being dressed needs one quiet corner that relatives agree to leave alone.
Chikkalasandra’s cross streets are residential and sometimes slim, and wedding days crowd them with parked cars, shamiana poles and flower sellers. Aarav’s slim kit and battery lights let him operate from a small bedroom with no dressing table at all. If the rites shift to a choultry across South Bengaluru, he either finishes the bride at home ahead of the convoy or meets her in the venue’s green room, whichever suits the clock.
What People in Chikkalasandra Book
-
01
Traditional South Indian bride
For a muhurtham wedding, Aarav paints a time-honoured face: sharp eyes, an even complexion and a lip that agrees with silk and temple jewellery. He partners with the family’s draper or tucks the nine-yard pleats himself, finishing before the walk out to the decorated car.
-
02
Seemantha and baby shower
An expectant mother needs a gentle, comfortable session. Aarav uses lightweight products, works with her seated in a supportive chair and keeps the look soft and glowing, so she can enjoy hours of blessings without feeling heavy or uncomfortable.
-
03
Upanayanam family looks
During an upanayanam the boy’s mother and aunts are in front of the camera from the first homa onward. Aarav prepares long-wear, natural looks for them early in the morning, so they can then run the rituals, greet guests and oversee the banana-leaf meal.
Look advice
A classic finish that respects tradition
Chikkalasandra families tend to want a bride who is still recognisably herself, so Aarav steers clear of strong sculpting and grey-leaning foundations that make warm South Indian skin turn ashy on camera. He matches undertones carefully, uses a warm satin base and defines eyes with kajal-inspired liner that complements jasmine, gold and a large bindi. Lips are usually in the red, maroon or deep rose family, layered so they last through rituals and meals without bleeding.
Planning a Chikkalasandra home session
Reserve a room the night before
Tell the family which bedroom the bride will use and keep it clear of luggage and gifts. One clear table, a socket and a window give Aarav everything he needs.
Plan around street parking
On function days the road outside fills fast. Save a patch of road by your compound wall so Aarav’s car can stop and unload quickly.
Agree on the draping
Settle early whether Aarav, an aunt or a hired draper will handle the pleats. The answer changes how long the session runs and how he sequences face, hair and ornaments.
