IF YOU KNOW HER .. YOU LOVE HER

Rinaa Shah

A woman who believed in herself so much that If Rebirth is what you call it – So be it!

Being a Polo player / Famous Dj is a different story altogether. When u think of both professions you think of men. Really excited to hear your totally offbeat story. Tell me All about your life, passion, career, family, and all that jazz.

I believe you have one life and you should fulfill all your dreams and achieve as much as you can. Soon after I moved to Gurgaon to open a restaurant at the age of 43 and that failed as a few people cheated and took my money and never started the restaurant that was when I got the opportunity to learn the drums and at 44 age. I did my first gig at privee in Delhi. Soon I realized that I wanted to mix my music and I always believe in creating history in life always a leader never a follower. so I thought of combining drums with djing and I left for Amsterdam to become a DJ at 45. The age or gender barrier has never stopped me. I know I do not become the best expert but I can set an example for the new generation and inspire them to take the plunge. I have an amazing family and they love me and support me always. But your journey is all yours. I moved to go a year ago to play music and launch my music IP Viking cymbal but there was a covid lockdown and During the lockdown, I thought of doing the restaurant. The person I trusted to do the restaurant within September attacked me in Dec and beat the crap of me breaking all my ribs and vertebrae and eye fracture. He beat me for 6 hours and held me, hostage, for 12 hours.

I thought it was going to die but Jan the 1st of the new year I decided that I will go ahead with the restaurant on my today I am the proud owner of TOTEM GOA in Mandrem and all I know about this is my energy and hardworking will not go waste and I want to inspire women all across India that we are stronger then men and we can achieve what we want if we believe in ourselves.
