Titan Raga unveils 'Paris, with Love' collection, an ode to Parisian romance, artistry and exceptional craftsmanship



Inspired by the City of Love, the exclusive capsule collection reimagines romance as the enduring relationship a woman shares with herself

Bengaluru, 21st July 2026: There are cities that become destinations. And then there is Paris: a feeling that lingers long after the journey ends. Its winding boulevards, quiet cafés, moonlit rendezvous and timeless elegance have inspired generations of dreamers, artists and romantics. But Titan Raga's newest collection, ‘Paris, with Love,’ is reimagined not as a backdrop for two, but as a mirrored canvas reflecting a woman’s personal journey - the one that begins with embracing herself.
Built around the campaign thought ‘True Love Begins With Me,’ and brought to life by Titan Raga’s brand ambassador, Alia Bhatt, the campaign reflects the confidence, individuality and effortless elegance that define the modern Raga woman. Designed for the woman who define their own journeys, each timepiece is a reminder that the strongest relationships are the ones nurtured within.
Speaking about the collection, Aparna Ravi, Marketing Head - Watches at Titan Company Ltd., said, "Every collection at Titan Raga begins with an understanding of the woman we are designing for. Today, she is confident in her choices, embraces her individuality and seeks pieces that feel personal. With ‘Paris, with Love,’ we wanted to reinterpret the idea of romance through that lens. Every detail has been crafted to feel intimate, elegant and enduring, much like the woman who wears it. As Raga continues to evolve, our endeavour is to bring global design inspiration to Indian consumers through watches that are both meaningful and beautifully crafted."


(From left to right: Ripples of Desire, River’s Whisper, and Scarlet’s Secret)
Inspired by two of Paris' most iconic muses, the flowing Seine and the spirited Moulin Rouge, the collection captures the city's romance through graceful forms, fluid silhouettes and intricate detailing. The exclusive capsule collection comprises three distinctive timepieces, each telling a unique story. The River's Whisper reflects the luminous beauty of the Seine through a mother of pearl marquetry dial and a bracelet crafted with finely set cubic zirconia that are inspired by shimmering droplets, while Ripples of Desire captures the river's gentle movement with a textured ripple patterned dial framed by sparkling cubic zirconia. Completing the trio is Scarlet's Secret, inspired by the bold spirit of the Moulin Rouge, featuring a striking crimson heart etched dial and a reversible stone studded case back that reveals a hidden layer of artistry. 
Every detail reflects Raga's pursuit of exceptional craftsmanship. The collection is crafted in premium 316L surgical-grade steel, the highest grade of stainless steel used in luxury watchmaking, with individually engineered solid links that flow seamlessly into a premium butterfly clasp for exceptional comfort. Luminous mother-of-pearl marquetry and ripple-textured dials, sapphire crystal glass, rhodium-plated cubic zirconia settings and intricate reversible detailing come together with remarkable precision and the interplay of light, texture and graceful curves creates watches that blur the line between fine jewellery and contemporary horology.
The collection is designed to move effortlessly across occasions. Pair it with a sharply tailored ivory pantsuit for a modern take on power dressing, let it complement the understated elegance of a silk saree at an intimate celebration, or wear it with an evening gown for a candlelit dinner that stretches into the night. Understated yet unmistakable, the watches transition seamlessly across moments. 
The River's Whisper is priced at ₹55,495, Ripples of Desire at ₹53,495, and Scarlet's Secret at ₹41,995. The Paris, with Love collection is now available across Titan stores and on the official website , inviting women everywhere to begin their most beautiful love story—with themselves.

Aware Citizenry Is The Crux Of National Progress



“India's five-century journey demonstrates that technological capability, maritime strength and innovation have always been the foundations of economic prosperity and strategic sovereignty. As India advances towards the vision of Viksit Bharat 2047, the country must strengthen indigenous innovation, scientific research, technological self-reliance and maritime capabilities to secure its position in the evolving global order”, said Dr. Chaitanya Giri, Space and Emerging Technology Fellow, Centre for Security, Strategy and Technology, Observer Research Foundation (ORF), and Senator, University of Mumbai, while introducing his book The Long Siege: 500 Years of India's Struggle for Technopolitical Freedom at the panel book discussion on "Mumbai Chronicles: 500 Years of Technopolitical Progress towards a Global Innovation and Maritime Hub," organised by MVIRDC World Trade Center Mumbai and All India Association of Industries in association with the Observer Research Foundation.

Dr. Chaitanya Giri, Space and Emerging Technology Fellow, Centre for Security, Strategy and Technology, Observer Research Foundation (ORF), and Senator, University of Mumbai, said, "Mumbai's future cannot be defined solely by its position as India's financial and commercial capital. The city's next phase of growth must be driven by innovation, technology and maritime leadership. By leveraging its strategic geography, entrepreneurial ecosystem and global connectivity, Mumbai can emerge as one of the world's foremost centres of technopolitical innovation."

 "The Long Siege: 500 Years of India's Struggle for Technopolitical Freedom underscores that cities which understand their history are better equipped to shape their future. An informed and aware citizenry is the foundation of national progress. By exploring Mumbai's scientific, technological and maritime evolution over the past five centuries, the book provides valuable insights that can help address contemporary urban and developmental challenges." said, Dr. Giri.

Dr. Vijay Kalantri, Chairman, World Trade Center Mumbai and President, All India Association of Industries, “Mumbai’s evolution from a maritime trading settlement into India’s financial and commercial capital reflects the country’s remarkable journey of resilience, enterprise and continuous reinvention. Every phase of the city’s development has been shaped by the convergence of technology, governance, public policy, strong institutions and entrepreneurship.”

“India was historically recognised as the ‘Golden Bird’ for its prosperity, advanced knowledge systems, flourishing industries and extensive global trade networks. Around 1700, India accounted for over one-fifth of global GDP and was a leading exporter of textiles, handicrafts, metal products and ships. The next chapter of Mumbai’s journey must support India’s rise as a global leader in science, technology and innovation, with the city serving as a gateway for knowledge, trade, maritime connectivity and technological leadership.” added Dr. Kalantri.

Dr. Sameer Patil, Director, Centre for Security, Strategy and Technology, Observer Research Foundation, who moderated the panel book discussion, said, “Mumbai’s financial prosperity was shaped by its connections with global trade corridors. Having lost economic control during the colonial period, the city must now reclaim its legacy and anchor India’s next phase of innovation.”

Mr. Abhijit Mulye, Veteran Science, Environment and Political Journalist, said "Mumbai's early Marathi newspapers played a pioneering role in science communication by publishing articles on agriculture, medicine, Ayurveda and scientific thought. Publications such as Shrishti Dnyan carried this tradition forward, while the period between 1870 and 1930 witnessed a remarkable resurgence in Indian science, culminating in Sir C. V. Raman's Nobel Prize."

Prof. Madhavi Narsalay, Professor of Sanskrit and In-Charge Director, Centre for Hindu Studies, University of Mumbai, “Mumbai emerged as an important centre of knowledge creation through institutions such as the Nirnaya Sagar Press and Venkateshwar Steam Press, which advanced Devanagari printing and regional literature. The Long Siege lays thrust on the close relationship between technology, politics and civilisation, while emphasising the need to preserve India’s indigenous knowledge systems.”

Ms. Priya Pansare, Director, Trade and Investment Promotion, World Trade Center Mumbai, said, “Mumbai’s story is one of continuous transformation, from a maritime trading settlement to India’s financial, commercial and entrepreneurial capital.

Through a youthful storytelling approach, the campaign aims to make hydration-led skincare more conversational, social-first and relevant for Gen Z consumers.

The relaunch reflects Himalaya Wellness's continued focus on strengthening its presence within the evolving hydration skincare category. It does this through ingredient-led innovation, youth-first storytelling and new age formats with the launch of a range extension - Aloe Vera Hydra Plump Face Serum with 2% Hyaluronic Acid. At a time when skincare preferences are evolving from functional moisturisation to visible hydration benefits, consumers are increasingly seeking skin that looks and feels soft, hydrated and dewy rather than simply moisturised. Responding to this shift, Himalaya Wellness is spotlighting the benefits of Aloe Vera, Hyaluronic Acid and Vitamin E through a range designed to support hydrated, bouncy, and dewy-looking skin. The campaign further reinforces the brand's broader skincare strategy of combining relatable consumer insights with science-backed innovation to deepen its connection with Gen Z.

Speaking about the campaign, Ms. Ragini Hariharan, Marketing Director – Beauty & Personal Care, Himalaya Wellness, said, “With the relaunch of our Aloe Vera Range, we are highlighting Aloe Vera’s natural hydration benefits for skin. As consumers increasingly gravitate towards new-age, high-efficacy formats, we are further strengthening the portfolio with the launch of a serum, catering to their growing preference for targeted, performance-driven skincare. Through the “Say Aloe to hydrated, bouncy, dewy cheeks” campaign, we bring this proposition to life with a youthful, culturally relevant narrative—making hydration skincare more engaging, relatable, and in tune with the expectations of today’s beauty consumer.”

Speaking on the creative inspiration behind the campaign, Naveen Raman, Executive Vice President, 82.5 communications said, “Today's young woman is always on, socially connected and constantly
