She guides them and protects them. If need be she reprimands them. She is Dr. Kaajal Rohira, counsellor and friend to television stars like Aashka Goradia, Ronit Roy and Dolly Sohi.
Dr. Kaajal: a mesiah
She runs a holistic health centre called Ishtar. "Ishtar means mother goddess of healing. Ishtar is also known as Venus or angel. It has the characteristics of a mother. It stands for care and protection," explains Kaajal.
Kaajal has a degree in naturopathy. However, she didn't practice naturopathy and was involved in designing garments. "Clothes are second skin. Colours interest me. I used to play around with colours while designing garments. Then I did a two year study in colours. It made me realise the effects of colour on a person's mind and body. I started using colour therapy to help people lead happy lives," she says.
Soon the word spread and Kaajal started counselling people from television. "I call people who come to me for guidance as Ishtar torch bearers. The term client or customer sounds cold," she says.
At her boutique Second Skin, she advises brides and grooms on what colour outfit to wear for the D-day. "It will help them avoid nervousness," she informs.

Kaajal loves to read books. "I have read a lot of motivational books. Osho and Krishnamurthy are my favourites. I have a small library in my office. I provide books to people from my library, she adds.
She then took up tarot card reading and supplemented it with graphology (handwriting and signature analysis). Kaajal uses graphology to help her corporate clients or torch bearers in recruitment of candidates.
"Colour therapy, graphology, and tarot reading etc are interrelated to each other. Because, all are a part of nature. Writing is an expression of the subconscious mind. The way one writes or crosses their t's says a lot. It has a connection with inner mind and science," she says.
Kaajal can heal people through reiki, crystals. She also suggests diets. "At Ishtar, I have people who can offer guidance on healing through music, numerology, astrology, feng shui, magnet therapy, acupressure, I-Ching, acupuncture, ayurveda and aromatherapy," she adds.
This is the first of a series of features on the people who are the support system of the telly industry
