Candere, the lifestyle jewellery brand from the House of Kalyan Jewellers, has announced celebrated Indian cricketer Smriti Mandhana as its new brand ambassador. Joining Shah Rukh Khan as the face of the brand, Smriti’s association marks a significant step in Candere’s journey to strengthen its connect with young, modern Indian consumers.
One of India’s most accomplished cricketers, Smriti has built a strong connection with audiences through her achievements, consistency and authenticity. At a time when women’s cricket continues to command growing attention across the country, her association with Candere reflects the brand’s focus on consumers who view jewellery not as something reserved for occasions, but as a natural part of everyday self-expression.
Ramesh Kalyanaraman, Director, Candere, Said:
“Smriti Mandhana’s influence extends far beyond the cricket field. She represents a generation that values ambition, authenticity and confidence, and has become an inspiration to millions through her achievements and conduct.

It’s a part of my personal style and often the finishing touch that makes me feel like myself.
Candere’s contemporary designs fit effortlessly into that mindset, making jewellery relevant for everyday moments. I’m excited to be part of this journey and look forward to connecting with audiences through the brand’s campaigns.”
