Akshai
Varde
is
inspired
by
bikes.
He
has
been
designing
customised
bikes
for
nine
years.
He
is
the
owner
of
the
company
Vardenchi
Motorcycles.
After
completing
his
degree
in
hotel
management,
he
worked
in
many
companies
including
in
Jet
Airways
as
a
cabin
crew.
During
this
period,
he
purchased
an
old
Royal
Enfield
for
Rs
17,000
and
designed
it
as
per
his
needs.
It
draw
the
public
and
friends
attention.
This
sparked
a
new
idea
in
him
of
starting
his
own
company
as
many
wanted
him
to
design
bikes
for
them.
He
started
his
company
Vardenchi
Motorcycle
with
just
Rs
2
lakhs
with
two
workers
in
Juhu,
Mumbai.
But
he
was
doing
it
as
a
part-time
business.
By
the
end
of
2005,
he
saw
the
increase
in
the
demand
for
the
custom-made
bikes.
Hence,
he
quit
the
job
to
concentrate
on
his
passion.
Today,
many
Bollywood
celebrities
like
Jackie
Shroff,
Karan
Grover
are
his
customers.
He
had
also
built
a
bike
for
Akshay
Kumar's
Oh
My
God
last
year.
His
company
is
growing
20%
year-on-year.
