A dreamer is always termed crazy, until the time he or she turns it into a reality. Falguni Nayar, the founder of Nykaa, one of India’s biggest online fashion and lifestyle portal, had been living the ideal life. After serving 20 years as a venture investor and merchant with Kotak Mahindra, she suddenly announced her departure to pursue her dream. Capitalizing on the scope of beauty and skincare products online, she steered herself towards Nykaa, and out came a platform that created history with its arrival. Running her online business successfully, along with 35 physical stores, make way for an entrepreneur who told the world that age is just a number.
