About Nayonika
She is often referred to as India's Naomi Campbell. And is the first choice

without her ramp presence. Such is the magic of Nayonika Chatterjee who
can carry international garments with the same élan as the Indian
sari.

quite a while (twelve years!!), even called off the wedding twice, after
which they decided to take the final plunge.
