In a world where fashion intersects with technology, identity, and the desire to contribute, the presence of Mangeshkar KK — a 1.83m-tall Indian man who holds multiple international titles and works as a software engineer at HCLTech — stands as a shining example of a global youth generation: skilled, courageous, and socially responsible. His appointment as a Global Ambassador for Global Student Fashion Week 2025 symbolizes a generation that dares to live multidimensionally — without limits, and constantly spreading inspiration.
The joint journey of technical intelligence and performance arts
Born in 1995, Mangeshkar grew up in a place where knowledge, sports, and culture intertwined in daily life. After graduating in Electronics and Communication Engineering, he entered the technology field and began working at HCLTech, one of the leading software companies in India. But even after choosing the engineering path, he quietly pursued another world: the world of stage lights, performance, creativity in image-making, and expressing beauty.
With that spirit, Mangeshkar has consecutively won coveted titles such as Mister South India, Mister India, Mister Asia, along with numerous other awards like Mister International Model, Mister Perfect Look, and Mister Beauty with Brain. He is also the holder of a World Book of London certificate for outstanding modeling achievements. These accomplishments did not happen overnight but are the result of persistent training, disciplined thinking, and flexible adaptability in every role.
Community responsibility – The foundation for all titles
Choosing an unconventional path, Mangeshkar has built the image of a modern man: responsible, multitasking, and always community-oriented. He is not only a model and engineer but also a stage choreographer, judge at international beauty contests, and brand ambassador for various Asian beauty organizations. He appears on stage not to showcase perfection but to share a message: Anyone can become their best version if they believe in themselves.
In a world easily swept up by fleeting fame, Mangeshkar chooses to move slowly but surely. He dedicates time to self-improvement, hones critical thinking, and questions the true value of success. That is why awards like the South India Professional Award 2024 and Youth Achievement of India 2024 are not merely honors, but confirmations of a life journey steadfastly committed to his ideals.
A multifaceted, profound and passionate internal world
What makes Mangeshkar truly impressive is his balance between logic and emotion. He is not only skilled in technology and has outstanding achievements in hockey, but also enjoys a rich artistic life. In his private time, he often collects coins as a way to preserve historical memories and experiments with fashion design as a form of personal emotional expression.
Not chasing shocking or fleeting trendy styles, Mangeshkar aims for a storytelling aesthetic where each outfit reflects the personality, culture, and social context of the wearer. That’s why those who have worked with him often say: wherever he stands, Mangeshkar leaves a lasting impression—not through noise, but through depth and professional spirit.
Global Student Fashion Week: Nurturing young talents with a global vision
Global Student Fashion Week (GSFW) 2025 is the world’s first international fashion week designed specifically for students and fashion training institutions. The event will officially take place in December 2025 in Hanoi, becoming a global meeting point for outstanding individuals from many countries worldwide. To spread the message of humanistic development, sustainability, and to honor young intellect, GSFW has announced a list of 999 Global Ambassadors including beauty queens, male kings, and influential figures in culture, arts, and international education.
The event will welcome 150 young designers from 30 leading fashion academies, along with over 450 beauty queens and male kings, 900 dancers, and more than 6,000 distinguished guests. Not only is GSFW a stage for students to showcase their design and performance skills, but it is also a professional environment helping young people position their creative voice within the global fashion landscape.
Becoming a Global Ambassador for Global Student Fashion Week 2025, Mangeshkar continues his journey of spreading positive life values to the student community and young people worldwide. He represents the model of a “global citizen” unrestricted by profession, unbound by fixed norms, and always actively and comprehensively developing himself. Mangeshkar not only brings the image of a professional model but also carries stories full of positive energy: the story of a young person daring to change direction, of an engineer daring to dream, and of a symbol who walks steadily in the tech industry while shining brilliantly on fashion stages across Asia.
