While fans eagerly waited for the contestants entering the house, it was Gizele Thakral’s entry as the 12th contestant that stole the most attention.

Gizele hails from Rajasthan and began modelling quite early at 14, reportedly. From winning beauty pageants and won titles like Miss Rajasthan, Miss Best Body and Miss Potential - she got into TV and participated in the adventure reality show Survivor India in 2012.

Speaking about her business Gizele said, “Venturing into fisheries wasn’t planned, but the more I learned about the people, the ecosystem, and the potential, the more committed I became to making it work—not just for me, but for the community I work with.” Today, her fisheries venture is gaining traction in international markets for its quality and ethical practices, positioning Gizele not only as a successful entrepreneur but as a changemaker in a space not commonly explored by celebrities.
