From making her Bollywood debut as a child actor in Mujhse Dosti Karoge to starring in television shows such as Girls on Top and featuring in Darshan Raval’s music video Naal Naal Ve, Barkha Singh has come a long way in her career. In an exclusive interview with HT Lifestyle, the actor, model, and content creator opened up about her entrepreneurial debut with a women’s footwear brand, her personal style, skincare philosophy and more.
“I’ve always wanted to create something of my own, something I believed in. Nuvah came along with this idea of questioning why beauty has to be painful. Why can’t we make heels that offer all the benefits of heels, including the posture, look and confidence they bring, without making women compromise on comfort? In so many other walks of life, women have stopped compromising, whether it is about safety or other aspects. Barkha added that her interest in global fashion trends made Nuvah a natural fit, giving her an opportunity to adapt international influences to suit the Indian market and its evolving needs. From her Instagram posts to her looks in films and web shows , it is clear that Barkha Singh is a fashion enthusiast. With her ability to experiment with different looks while maintaining a distinct sense of style, she stands out in an ever-evolving fashion landscape. Considering the ever-evolving fashion landscape, Barkha emphasised the importance of building a capsule wardrobe and investing in good-quality basics that can be styled in multiple ways. She advised women to understand which silhouettes work best for their body type rather than blindly following trends, as what looks good on one person may not necessarily flatter another. As someone who is often in front of the camera, Barkha Singh believes skincare is not just about looking good but also about maintaining healthy skin. She follows a simple routine that includes double cleansing, applying a hydrating moisturiser and wearing sunscreen . She also relies on a few home remedies that work well for her skin.
So why are beauty standards something we’re still okay putting ourselves through so much pain for?” she said. Speaking about her personal style, Barkha said, “My personal sense of style always gravitates towards things that are classic, and classics are always timeless.
Sharing her perspective on skincare, Barkha also highlighted the difference between anti-ageing and age reversal. “Anti-ageing is different from age reversal. A lot of people start their anti-ageing treatments once their skin has already aged. You need to start your anti-ageing routine before your skin begins to show signs of ageing. That is why it is called anti-ageing,” she explained.
