Mohan, an international super model, actress, author, musician, mom and much more was heralded by Newsweek magazine as the “new global standard of beauty”.

She also stars in an upcoming film “Teen Patti” with Amitabh Bachan and Ben Kingsley. Another interesting fact is that Saira is also working on her music career.

 

Mohan shared some advice to listeners looking for success:
“We’re living in an evolved time and you need to forge your own way. You’ve got to go with your gut and you’ve got to go with what you feel”, said Mohan. “It’s about expanding our minds, expanding our cultures and our traditions and exposing and making them more than what they were. Every generation we become better and more evolved and we’ve just go to continue on with that”.
 
Saira Mohan is both a modern woman of today and an inspirational South Asian. Her success fuels the dreams of many and her passion for achieving that success through the many spheres of life makes her story truly inspirational.
