At the core of Shiga Pettals are two driving forces: Mrs. S P Gaandhimathi, the heart behind the vision, and Mr. Lakshmanaswamy, the mind behind the structure. Gaandhimathi founded Shiga Pettals to make celebrations feel personal and meaningful, while Lakshmanaswamy brought the discipline and systems to help that vision thrive at scale.
Gaandhimathi led the shift from standard decor to thoughtful, soulful design – mentoring a team rooted in empathy and detail. At the same time, Lakshmanaswamy’s financial sharpness and process-driven approach ensured flawless, on-time execution and sustainable growth. His implementation of 5S practices laid the groundwork for efficiency in handling complex, large-scale events.
Together, they built more than a business – they created a culture where creativity is supported by structure, and emotion is matched with execution. Shiga Pettals stands as a testament to their balanced leadership: heartfelt, practical, and deeply human.
