Erstwhile actresses used to think of their second career option after quitting films. However, actresses of this generation are starting their businesses while they continue to earn in film industry.
Indian-origin British model turned Amy Jackson is planning to venture into cosmetic products business by launching her own line of fake eyelashes and hair extensions in Britain and India. She is currently in London in the process of setting up a branch of her label in the UK. After setting up this branch, she will be back to India to replicate her business model here by this year-end. Amy has yet to decide on a name for her label.
“Extensions are a rage in London but lashes and extensions have just begun to pique curiosity in Indian metros. I’m hoping to cash in on the trend. I hope to engage in retailing with major cosmetic departmental stores as well as high-end salons. I’m really excited because I think there’s so much potential in this space. Also, it allows me to pursue my second passion after acting,” Amy told a tabloid.
On work front, Amy will be next seen in Freaky Ali also starring Nawazuddin Siddiqui. She also pays a key role in Shankar’s ‘Robot 2.0’ starring Rajinikanth and Akshay Kumar.
