ZOYA, the luxury jewellery atelier from the Tata Group, unveils Her Again,a new High Jewellery collection that reinterprets one of India’s most enduring cultural languages,  its spices – through ZOYA’s distinctive design lens. Drawing from the rituals and memories that connect us to our past, the collection explores the intimate journey of a woman returning to herself. ZOYA brings this essential Indian craft story to life through gemstone mastery and a distinctive design language, in an alchemy of expressive colour, unusual stones and intricate craftsmanship. ZOYA transforms a familiar part of India’s cultural landscape into a distinctive expression of High Jewellery.

The golden warmth of turmeric, the deep red of mace, cardamom green and the richness of saffron and rose become passages into memory. Colour awakens the many facets within her: curious, playful, spontaneous, expressive and deeply feminine.  Rubellite, emerald, Madeira Citrine, Orissa rose garnet, golden heliodor and yellow sapphire create an unexpected, saturated palette that echoes the colours of spice and memory. Set in intricate compositions and shaped through thousands of hours of craftsmanship, these natural gemstones reimagining familiar cultural references into High Jewellery.

The campaign finds a cultural voice in Internationally acclaimed sitarist and composer Anoushka Shankar. Having shaped a distinctive musical language across cultures and genres, she carries her Indian heritage into an evolving creative practice that is deeply personal and unmistakably her own.

Speaking about the collection, Anoushka Shankar said:

“What I love about ZOYA is the way it takes what we inherit and allows it to evolve through colour, gemstones and craft. I’ve always believed you can be deeply rooted in a culture and still speak to the world in a way that feels relevant, simply through the lens of your own experience. ZOYA captures that beautifully, creating pieces that feel timeless in spirit, yet fresh, inventive and entirely their own.”

Arun Narayan, Chief Executive Officer – Jewellery, Titan Company Limited said:

“India offers an extraordinary source of inspiration for jewellery design, from its rich cultural heritage and vibrant colours to the materials and craftsmanship that have shaped its visual language over centuries. At ZOYA, we see an opportunity to reinterpret these influences through a distinctive design lens, creating High Jewellery where meaning and emotional resonance are as integral as rarity and artistry.”

“Her Again reflects this approach, drawing from India’s richness and diversity while expressing it in a way that is contemporary, personal, and unmistakably our own. Anoushka Shankar embodies this vision through a creative journey that has continually found new and imaginative expressions of her Indian influences, bringing them to global audiences with authenticity and artistic depth.”

Bollywood Meets Business Legacy: Ranbir Kapoor Praises PNG Jewellers Chairman’s Raw New Memoir, Choosing Gold

An Avid Reader Of Real-Life Stories, Ranbir Kapoor Calls Choosing Gold “Rare” For How It Treats Failure, Not As A Footnote, But As The Making Of An Instinct

Published

on

Stories of resilience from business leaders often inspire individuals across all walks of life, and this time, it was Bollywood superstar Ranbir Kapoor who shared his appreciation for the profound insights in Choosing Gold, the debut memoir of Dr. Saurabh Gadgil, Chairman and Managing Director of PNG Jewellers, when presented with a copy by the author recently.

Released nationally by Penguin Random House India, Choosing Gold traces the mindset that built the 194-year-old legacy of PNG Jewellers and that of its Chairman and Managing Director, Dr. Saurabh Gadgil. During their interaction, Ranbir Kapoor revealed he was excited to dive deep into the book after being drawn to its premise, praising its raw reflection on legacy, choices, tough decisions, learnings from failures and overcoming setbacks. Ranbir is an avid reader and appreciates real life stories and autobiographies.

Dr. Saurabh Gadgil, CMD of PNG Jewellers, said:

“Writing Choosing Gold meant resisting the temptation to rewrite my past with the clarity I only have now. I wanted the honesty of what I actually knew and felt in each moment, not the polished version hindsight gives you. Sharing this book with Ranbir led me to have one of the more meaningful conversations I’ve had about the book. We come from very different worlds, but the weight of legacy, and the discomfort of choosing the harder path, turned out to be something we both recognized in each other’s lives.

If even one reader finishes this book and makes their next difficult decision with a little more courage, I’ll consider it to have done its job.”

Sharing his thoughts about the book, Ranbir Kapoor said:

“I love reading autobiographies and real-life stories, because the best ones don’t just tell you what someone achieved, they show you what it cost them and what they were willing to risk. Choosing Gold caught my attention immediately, and the title says it all: this isn’t a story about one big break, it’s about a series of hard, deliberate choices made again and again, often against the safer option. What struck me most is how Saurabh writes about failure, not as a footnote before the success, but as something that actually shaped his instincts. That’s rare in this genre.

Building a legacy like his isn’t about a single moment of vision; it’s about the discipline to keep choosing the harder path when an easier one is right there. That mindset is what makes this book worth reading, whether or not you’re in business at all.”

Choosing Gold offers a candid look into leadership and resilience beyond balance sheets. Formally celebrated at an exclusive Mumbai event featuring actor Madhuri Dixit, the memoir is available across PNG Jewellers stores, pngjewellers.com, Amazon, and leading bookstores nationwide. Ranbir Kapoor and Madhuri Dixit, both are brand ambassadors for PNG Jewellers.
