The Sip of Life talked to 29 years old, Hinesh Jethwani, a Computer Engineering graduate, the Founder and Head of Indian Hippy about the concept behind. When asked what made him think of the Bollywood theme, he says, “I’ve always interpreted Bollywood film poster art as a very larger than life depiction – synonymous to the stuff that our movies are typically made of.
The sets, songs, costumes, etc. in our films are so colorful and grand that when translated into poster art, the results are truly fascinating.” On his most popular best selling piece, Hinesh says, “We receive orders for posters ranging from vintage Bollywood movies to the more recent hits, as well as the occasional Hollywood film as well. Amongst vintage Bollywood films, Mughal-e-Azam is most preferred by customers. Our most popular service offering is our hand painted customized/personalized Bollywood film posters in which we paint our customer’s face into a film poster of their choice.” 
When asked about the most interesting feedback ever received he says, “A few memorable moments include a customer whose eyes welled up with tears and heart with emotions on seeing her custom Bollywood poster which featured her late husband; another who had goose bumps all over her body on seeing her poster, and yet another customer who couldn’t stop thanking her husband enough for getting a romantic poster made of the two of them together.”

Indian Hippy exclusive product collection includes accessories such as clutch purses, handbags, belts & wallets; home décor items such as chairs & trunks; even wedding cards in Bollywood film poster style and gift items such as diary folders. A series of Obamabilia like “Obama chairs, wallets, and handbags”, all hand-painted and distributed by Indian Hippy was a big hit during his India visit.
