Wendell Rodricks launched his niece Kyara Coelho in 2018 at a show titled Wow Factor, and called her "the new Twiggy of India". Coelho, an Andheri resident and arts student from St Xavier's College, writes a heartfelt letter to her uncle, Wendell.
Dearest Wendell,
You have inspired me to go after my dreams, to rewrite my story and never settle for less. You believed in me at 17 and I owe everything to you. You took a chance on me — and put me on a platform I'd only dreamed about. And, with that, you gave me the confidence to actually do it and live my dream. And, you were right by my side, cheering the loudest and happiest 'Yay Kyara'. We are all cheering for you, Wendell.
