Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)​​

WHO OR WHAT IS MANEESH MEDIA?
We are architects – we build legacies through storytelling. Our creator was a visionary, Shri Chandmal Kumawat, who founded Maneesh Media in 1999 in the vibrant and rich Jaipur, Rajasthan.

We don’t just print pages; we craft inspirations.

We’re so glad you asked! In Sanskrit, the ancient language of our dear India, it means

Put them together, and you get ‘The Guiding Light of the Soul.’ That’s our secret sauce and our mission. We are seekers, who gather and share collective wisdom through stories, lighting up the path for others.
