Rubaru 2026

Celebrity photographer Amit Khanna continues to push boundaries with his annual Glariconic calendar Rubaru 2026 - A Celebration of Indian Women, and one of its most evocative frames features actress Komica Anchal alongside supermodel Diandra Soarres in a striking concept that redefines beauty across generations.

The photograph captures Komica portraying a younger woman standing beside a poised, confident Diandra - not in contrast, but in harmony. The image speaks to an often-ignored truth: that beauty does not diminish with age, it simply evolves. Together, the two women form a visual dialogue between youth and experience, softness and strength, beginnings and becoming.

Speaking about the concept, Amit Khanna shared,


“Rubaru has always been about challenging quiet prejudices. Age is one of the most unfair yardsticks used for women. With Komica and Diandra, I wanted to show that admiration doesn’t flow one way - it flows between generations. Beauty is not something you lose; it’s something you grow into.”

For Komica Anchal, the shoot was deeply personal.

“We are conditioned to celebrate youth and fear ageing, especially when it comes to women. Standing next to Diandra made me realise how powerful grace, confidence and life experience look on camera. This image is about respect - and about rewriting what beauty really means,” she said.

The frame fits seamlessly into the philosophy of Rubaru 2026, which documents different phases of womanhood - desire, strength, independence, sisterhood, motherhood, identity and reinvention - through carefully composed visual metaphors.

With Pankaj Kharbanda presenting the calendar this year, Rubaru 2026 promises to be not just a collector’s piece but a cultural statement - one that reframes conversations around femininity, agency and representation in contemporary India.

As the images slowly unfold, Khanna’s lens continues to remind audiences that womanhood is not a single chapter - it is an entire lifetime of becoming.
