A Panel Curated by Fetch India at the India Pavilion – Cannes Film Festival 2025
19th May, 2025 – New Delhi — At the 2025 Cannes Film Festival, a powerful conversation
unfolded at the India Pavilion — one that celebrated the force of women driving India’s global
cultural narrative. Titled “Voices of Influence: Craft, Creativity & Cultural Presence,” the panel
brought together trailblazing women from across industries to reflect on identity, innovation, and
leadership.
Moderated by writer and filmmaker Saraswathi Buyyala, the discussion featured a stellar lineup
of women who are challenging conventions and redefining influence:
● Kanika Tekriwal, aviation entrepreneur and founder of JetSetGo, is transforming access
to private aviation while elevating Indian craftsmanship globally.
● Devangi Parekh, MD of Aza and founder of Araiya by Aza, is building a more inclusive
and globally resonant vision of Indian couture.
● Sakshi Sindwani, digital creator and body positivity advocate, is changing the face of
beauty and fashion through fearless self-expression and unapologetic authenticity.
“This wasn’t just a panel — it was a movement powered by purpose. As a women-led
agency, we believe deeply in women supporting women — not just in words, but
through action, visibility, and access,” said Pankhuri Harikrishnan, Founder and CEO
of Fetch India.
Since 2018, Fetch Consulting has been a consistent presence at the Cannes Film Festival, From
elevating red carpet moments to curating meaningful conversations, the agency has
consistently used its communication strategies to spotlight women — not just to be included, but
to be centered and championed.
“Voices of Influence” was a testament to what happens when opportunity meets intention. It
reflected a new era where women are not waiting to be invited to the table — they are building
their own and inviting other women in.
