As homes across Malaysia prepare to light up for Deepavali, three friends are having their busiest weeks of the year. 

Parveena Selvarajah of Saray, Vinodhini Gangadara Vadivel of Muse by Vino, and Nithya Pushpanathan of Tablescapes by Nithya, each grew their own brand independently, from sarees to handbags to dining-wear, while cheering each other on. Along the way they also joined forces on cultural showcases like the Chitra Edit.

In this Deepavali special, all three join us in the studio to talk about building their brands, sourcing and curating for Malaysian customers, what the festive rush really looks like behind the scenes, and why friendship might be the best business strategy they have.
