Kolkata, India | May 2026: The cultural capital of India witnessed an unforgettable evening of creativity, influence, and regional storytelling as Whosthat360, in association with Oriflame India, hosted the Oriflame Presents WhosNext2026 Influencer Awards – East & Northeast Edition in Kolkata. The prestigious evening brought together some of the most impactful digital creators, artists, entrepreneurs, fashion icons, and entertainers from across East and Northeast India, celebrating talent that is redefining India’s creator economy through authenticity, culture, and community-driven storytelling.

Edyta Kurek, SVP and Head of India and Indonesia, Oriflame said  “The Northeast Yatra has been one of the most meaningful journeys we have undertaken in India. Travelling across 13 cities, meeting thousands of young women and creators, and seeing the hunger for opportunity firsthand, it reaffirmed something we have always believed: that entrepreneurship does not have to be complicated or risky to be real. The WhosNext awards in Kolkata are a celebration of exactly that spirit. We are not just recognising talent; we are recognising the courage it takes to back yourself and build something of your own. What has moved me most through this journey is that the ambition was always there. It simply needed a platform and a push. That is what Oriflame has always stood for, and this Yatra has brought it to life in the most tangible way possible.”

Abhishek Chakraborty, Head of Brand, PR & Digital  “From a marketing standpoint, the Northeast Yatra has been a masterclass in what meaningful brand engagement looks like. We were not selling a product; we were starting a conversation about financial independence and creative entrepreneurship in communities that rarely get that kind of direct attention. The WhosNext awards in Kolkata are proof that the conversation landed. When the creators this Yatra discovered walk up to receive recognition, that is the best return on investment a brand can ask for. More importantly, it validates a philosophy we hold strongly at Oriflame: that the most powerful thing a brand can do is create real opportunity for real people, and then get out of the way and let them shine.”

The awards recognised creators and changemakers across multiple categories spanning fashion, beauty, lifestyle, entrepreneurship, entertainment, regional content, and emerging digital voices. The platform highlighted the growing influence of regional creators who are shaping conversations in their own languages while building strong national impact.

The evening featured a vibrant red carpet, creator interactions, live moments, and special honours celebrating excellence across industries. Winners and attendees represented cities and communities from across the region, showcasing the diversity and creative energy of India’s evolving influencer ecosystem.

रंजीता कुमारी एक गृहिणी होने के साथ-साथ एक सफल लेखिका भी हैं। बचपन से ही उन्हें पढ़ने का गहरा शौक था, लेकिन कम उम्र में विवाह और पारिवारिक जिम्मेदारियों के कारण उनके सपनों को विराम लग गया। दो बच्चों की परवरिश और पारिवारिक जीवन में व्यस्त रहने के बाद उन्होंने विवाह के लगभग बीस वर्षों बाद पुनः लेखन की शुरुआत की।

साल 2024 में उनकी पहली पुस्तक, एक कविता संग्रह “एक विरहिणी सी औरत” प्रकाशित हुई, जिसे पाठकों द्वारा काफी सराहना मिली। उसी वर्ष उनका कहानी संग्रह “जीवन के रंग यादों के संग” भी प्रकाशित हुआ। वर्ष 2025 में उन्होंने दो उपन्यास “एक कहानी अपनी सी” और “सलोनी” के साथ-साथ एक और कविता संग्रह “आशना” प्रकाशित किया।

वर्ष 2026 में उन्होंने बच्चों के लिए कहानी संग्रह “दादी-नानी की कहानियां: घूरता-घूरता” लिखकर बाल साहित्य में भी महत्वपूर्ण योगदान दिया। उनकी सभी पुस्तकें रविना प्रकाशन द्वारा प्रकाशित की गई हैं और इनका विमोचन दिल्ली विश्व पुस्तक मेला में भव्य रूप से किया गया।

लेखन के साथ-साथ रंजीता कुमारी ने अब तक 11 पुस्तकों का संपादन भी किया है, जो उनकी साहित्यिक दक्षता और अनुभव को दर्शाता है। वर्तमान में वह ग्रामीण परिवेश पर आधारित एक नए उपन्यास पर कार्य कर रही हैं।

रंजीता कुमारी का यह सम्मान न केवल उनकी व्यक्तिगत उपलब्धि है, बल्कि उन सभी महिलाओं के लिए प्रेरणा है जो अपने सपनों को किसी कारणवश पीछे छोड़ देती हैं। उन्होंने यह साबित कर दिया कि यदि दृढ़ संकल्प और मेहनत हो, तो किसी भी उम्र में सफलता हासिल की जा सकती है।

उनकी इस उपलब्धि पर साहित्य प्रेमियों और क्षेत्रवासियों में खुशी की लहर है तथा सभी ने उन्हें उज्ज्वल भविष्य के लिए शुभकामनाएं दी हैं।

Utsriji: An Ancient Way of Communication brings together ten artists from across eastern India in a compelling group exhibition at Jehangir Art Gallery, presenting a vibrant confluence of contemporary expressions rooted in lived experience and cultural memory.

Organised under the aegis of Utsriji Satsang – a collective established in 1991, this exhibition features works by artists Paban Roy, Tapan Karmakar, Fulla Chandra Mistri, Shiladitya Basak, Malay Dutta, Indrajit Ghosh, Riti Sundar Roy, Ranajit Jana, Subhrajit Dutta, and Mrinal Saha. Each artist contributes a distinct visual language, yet together they form a cohesive narrative that reflects both individuality and shared sensibilities.

The exhibition unfolds as an eclectic rainbow spectrum, ranging from finely detailed figurative compositions and symbolic portraiture to textured abstractions and layered mixed-media works. Themes of devotion, memory, rural life, mythology, and contemporary aspiration surface repeatedly, often interwoven with a strong narrative impulse. Whether it is the quiet dignity of human figures, the symbolic presence of animals and nature, or the interplay of colour and surface, the works resonate with an immediacy that is both accessible and evocative.

What emerges is not merely a display of artworks, but a dialogue, between regions, generations, and modes of seeing. The exhibition underscores art as a timeless communicative force, one that transcends language while remaining deeply anchored in context.

Utsriji invites viewers to engage with this diverse showcase and experience the many ways in which art continues to connect, reflect, and endure.

This show was inaugurated on 5th May 2026 by Honorable Guests Mr. Prayag Shukla (Famous writer & art critic), in the presence of Mr. Kamal Jain (Famous typographer), Mr. Anil Kelkar (Founder member Mumbai art group), Mr. Hars Lakhani (Art curator), Mr. Raj Kumar Sharma (Art reviewer), Mr. U.
