Our brand is called Rheson, a combination of Rhea and Sonam, phonetically pronounced reason. It’s a high street fashion brand meant for real Indian girls," reports bollywoodlife.com.

The sisters plan to keep the high-street brand affordable and accessible - starting at INR 400 and will go up to INR 4,000 - so that every girl who aspires to dress like them has the option to.
