Rahul left his corporate IT job to pursue his passion. Today, he owns 'Ink Dreams Studio' in Mumbai with 3 artists and a 6-month waiting list.

Rahul Sharma, a former software engineer, always had a passion for art but never imagined it could become his career. After attending Harsha Fugare's beginner course at INK Mantra Academy, Rahul discovered his natural talent for realism tattoos. Under the mentorship of both Harsha and Vishal, Rahul mastered portrait techniques and color application. Within 18 months of graduation, he opened 'Ink Dreams Studio' in Mumbai's Bandra area. Today, his studio employs 3 artists, has a 6-month waiting list, and generates ₹8+ lakhs monthly revenue. 'INK Mantra didn't just teach me tattooing - they taught me how to build a successful business,' says Rahul.
