“My motherland is a place that feels cleansing - it’s as if I experience a baptism by holy water every time I’m back” - Amrit For JUNE/JULY @vogueindia cover story 🎈🌞 Being a Sikh-Punjabi talent in the entertainment industry can be lonely sometimes, but working with an all-Indian creative team, in my home, for this story has only elevated my spirit and sense that we are strengthened by our collective expression and experience. The soil of India and the harmony of our heritages that coexist in the very spectrum of its colorful existence will always inundate our souls. To the youth from rural parts of India, ones drenched in the hunger for their creative dreams, the queer youth, ones dedicated to service of nature and humanity, the ones still trying to figure it all out for themselves, I want to dedicate this cover to you, Because being from a small village myself, And recognizing the strength within & embracing the path that unfolds in front of me, I only see endless possibilities, not only for myself but for all of us. Here’s the rooftop of my home, chunni on my head, my parent’s floral living room, my mum’s hand embroidered chaadar, my art, and me by the Bias River. Here’s the most used pose by all the punjabis all over the world whenever they are asked for a group photo. Thus, I offer you my world. Thank you for being a part of this journey. My gratitude to Almighty Waheguru, my loving parents, & to everyone involved. You can read the article to grasp the moving pieces of my colorful life and the environmental duties I’ve set for myself with @dharathfoundation as well. 🌱 @meghakapoor ♥️ @specialbeauties 💕
