Hello đź‘‹
My name is Chandni Sehgal. I’m a freelance journalist based in Mumbai and I write on travel, beauty and wellness, design, culture and more. I have been a journalist for over 13 years and I specialise in profiles, social commentary and health and wellness stories (and offering unsolicited advice).
Along with freelance writing, I am open to creative projects across platforms, ghost writing books, co-authoring and editing. Things I like include books, food and dogs. Things I dislike include introducing myself – verbally, and in writing, so that’s it for now.

I was contributing writer on two books for children published by Indian publisher Juggernaut. The first book, features heroes like Shafali Verma, the girl wonder cricketer who broke Sachin Tendulkar’s record and Afroz Shah, who led the world’s largest beach Clean-up in Mumbai, and more. Its sequel features many more including wildlife activist, Supraja Dharini, who has helped over 18 lakh baby turtles return safely to the wild and Rocket Woman of India, Ritu Karidhal.
