FOUNDERS RELEASE

खोलिए

Before every great celebration,
there is a door.

On one side stands a guest. On the other, a home waiting to welcome them. I grew up in Delhi in a home where the door was never really closed. If one more friend arrived, my mother simply made the dahl go further and brought another chair to the table. Shoes gathered at the entrance. Food appeared before anyone asked. Stories continued long into the evening. In our home, a guest arrived as a visitor and left feeling like family. That spirit stayed with me when I made Australia home. It is what I wanted to honour when I created Kholiye.
— Naresh Shukla, Kholiye Founder
