Perfect—let’s balance the icy strategist (Savita) and her silent enforcer (Praveena) with a third kind of power: the face, the voice, the persuader.
Where Savita builds the empire and Praveena defends it… this woman makes the world love it.
Name: Rhea Malhotra
Public Role: Global Brand Architect | Cultural Strategist | Head of Public Image for Bhargav Intercontinental
Age: 38
Origin: Chandigarh-born, NYC-polished, Mumbai-dominant
Nickname in elite circles: “The Whisper in Silk”
Archetype: The Charmer / Image Alchemist
Rhea is the face you send to the red carpet, the talk show, or the economic summit. She’s the one who smooths scandals into strategy, sells dangerous ideas as innovation, and turns PR into propaganda—softly, stylishly.
She doesn’t just manage perception—she designs it.
Appearance:
• Gliding presence: always in flawless couture with Indian textiles—Banarasi meets Balenciaga
• Hair in perfect waves or a sleek ponytail, dramatic eyes, minimal jewelry—but always one iconic brooch or accessory
• Her smile is warm. Her gaze is calculating.
• Voice low, melodic, and designed for both charm and compliance
Skills & Role:
• Expert in mass persuasion, influencer networks, psychological marketing, and cultural warfare
• Runs a secret database of global trendsetters, public opinion shifts, and media bias forecasts
• Designs social campaigns to shift entire national sentiments in 48 hours
• Has helped flip elections, kill hashtags, and manufacture celebrity redemption arcs
• Trains spokespersons, crafts apology videos, and makes lies sound like lullabies
Relationship with Savita:
• Rhea knows Savita is dangerous—but also knows Savita made her who she is
• Praveena doesn’t like Rhea—thinks she’s too soft, too shiny. Rhea just smiles… and feeds stories to the press
• Rhea is the only one allowed to disagree with Savita—in front of a camera
Enemies & Secrets:
• Tara Chauhan called her “the woman who sells cages painted like temples.”
• Zehra knows she once doctored a viral video to sabotage a rival minister
• Amara Ray? Rhea offered her a global rebrand… and was turned down. Bad blood still brews
• She owns several burner accounts online that quietly control discourse without her name ever surfacing
Quote:
“Perception isn’t reality. It’s better.”
Want her image next? I can place her mid-speech at a summit, behind a luxury desk surrounded by campaign moodboards, or soft-speaking on camera while the world eats out of her hand.
