Mahesh Kumar Chauhan, a third-generation mojari artisan from Jodhpur, honed his tailoring and embroidery skills at a young age. Unlike traditional mojaris, Chauhan incorporates block-printed fabric for unique designs, focusing on cost-effective production techniques like glueing instead of stitching.

Kapil, armed with modern marketing knowledge, introduced social media initiatives and invested in branding, aiming to establish their family brand as a household name in the mojari industry.
