The Spark of Inspiration
For Jagathi, Chengavi was never a commercial idea alone. It was born from personal experience and cherished memories. Her earliest encounters with beauty were guided by her mother and grandmother, who relied on household remedies: turmeric and gram flour masks for radiance, curd for cooling and hydration, and herbal oils enriched with hibiscus, neem, and amla for strength and shine.
These rituals were never just about appearance. They carried with them a sense of belonging, a rhythm of care passed from one generation to another. She remembers her grandmother, calm and strong, tending to clay pots filled with herbs and flowers, their fragrance filling the air with comfort and trust. For Jagathi, these moments highlighted a truth: beauty is more than surface-level care. It is a connection to heritage, balance, and nature itself. Chengavi was created to preserve that truth and bring it to life for a new generation.
The Chengavi Philosophy

Inspired by the Manjishta leaf, known in Ayurveda for its purifying and rejuvenating qualities, the symbol embodies grounding energy and renewal. Its design also draws from the sacred geometry of traditional Yantras, which represent harmony, focus, and spiritual strength. Together, these inspirations express Chengavi’s mission: to bridge the timeless with the contemporary.
