“The more you praise and celebrate your life, the more there is in life to celebrate.” — Oprah Winfrey
This profound sentiment beautifully encapsulates the essence of Orane International’s 25th anniversary celebration. Held on December 11th, 2024, at the prestigious Hyatt Regency Hotel in Chandigarh, the event was far more than a jubilant festivity. It was a heartfelt reflection of Orane’s incredible journey over the past quarter-century, highlighting its evolution from humble beginnings to becoming a leader in the beauty and wellness industry.
The evening served as a tribute to Orane’s unwavering commitment to excellence, a moment to honour its legacy, and an opportunity to look ahead with optimism and determination.
A Journey of Dreams and Determination of the Dynamic Duo
The foundation of Orane was laid in 1999 by two visionary leaders: Mr. Dinesh Sood, Managing Director and Co-Founder, and Mr. Kuljinder Singh Sidhu, a celebrated Punjabi actor and Co-Founder. Beginning their careers in print media with a modest salary of INR 10,00 each and a shared dream, they both embarked on a journey filled with challenges, resilience, and purpose.
Their journey took a pivotal turn in 2009 when they established three beauty academies in Jalandhar. These academies marked the beginning of a transformation not only for Orane but also for the thousands of students and professionals who would go on to benefit from its programs. Today, Orane stands tall as India’s largest chain of beauty and wellness academies, operating 120 centres across 22 states and shaping countless success stories in the industry.
