Mehman Privé.
The grand unveiling of Mehman Privé marked a defining milestone in the world of luxury gifting as the brand officially launched its flagship presence at Mahim West on 22nd May 2026. The elegant evening celebrated not only the opening of a premium gifting destination but also the inspiring entrepreneurial journey of a young visionary who transformed a heartfelt dream into one of Mumbai's emerging luxury gifting brands. The launch witnessed the presence of distinguished dignitaries, celebrities, entrepreneurs, influencers, social leaders, and members of the business community who gathered to celebrate a brand that beautifully combines sophistication, emotion, and purpose.
Founded in 2019 by young entrepreneur Kriishh Jimmy Navin Gada at the remarkable age of just 14, Mehman began with an investment of merely â¹1000 and a vision to redefine the art of gifting. What started as a small initiative rooted in thoughtful gestures has now evolved into Mehman Privé, a luxury gifting house known for curating experiences that blend elegance with sustainability and emotional connection. Inspired by the discipline and focus he developed as a national-level rifle shooter, Kriishh introduced innovative concepts such as eco-friendly plant bouquets and personalized gifting experiences that resonated strongly with modern consumers seeking meaningful and conscious luxury.
Currently pursuing his BSc in Accounts and Finance at the University of Warwick, Kriishh continues to lead the brand with passion, innovation, and a strong commitment toward social impact. Mehman Privé actively collaborates with women-led rural enterprises, supports NGOs, and encourages artisan communities, ensuring that every gift carries a deeper purpose beyond aesthetics. The brand strongly believes that gifting should create happiness not only for the recipient but also for the communities involved in crafting these beautiful creations.
The launch evening perfectly reflected the essence of Mehman Privé - luxury with purpose. The venue was transformed into a sophisticated showcase of premium floral artistry, artisanal hampers, bespoke gifting concepts, elegant copper collections, and carefully curated luxury experiences. Every detail of the event highlighted the brand's refined identity and commitment to craftsmanship, authenticity, and emotional storytelling. The transition from Mehman Gifting to Mehman Privé symbolizes far more than a rebranding exercise; it marks the evolution of a homegrown business into a premium luxury identity that celebrates creativity, sophistication, and meaningful human connection.
The brand's leadership team has also played a significant role in shaping its premium vision. Sonia (Swati) Gada, Business Development Director at Mehman Privé, brings her extensive expertise in hospitality and luxury retail to the brand. A graduate from the Institute of Hotel Management Mumbai, Sonia's experience managing the prestigious Leonidas store in Mumbai has added a refined international luxury perspective to the business. Alongside her, Mehal Chhadva Malde contributes elegance, creativity, and a strong understanding of artisanal luxury through her background in premium retail and fine culinary appreciation.
The glamorous evening was graced by several eminent personalities including Dr. Manju Mangal Prabhat Lodha, celebrated author and philanthropist, actress Malvika Raaj, Dilshad Khan, editor of Mumbai Halchal, Suhail Khandwani, Ajay Dubey, Archana Jain, Editor of The Trending Times, prominent members of Sobo Guys, renowned women entrepreneurs, close friends supporting Sonia Gada, along with several leading influencers and entrepreneurs from across the city.
With the successful launch of Mehman Privé, the brand now steps confidently into a bold new chapter, promising to redefine luxury gifting in India through innovation, authenticity, emotional connection, and meaningful social impact.
