Sakshi Sindwani Becomes First Indian Digital Creator to Attend Grammy Awards 2026

Indian fashion and beauty creator Sakshi Sindwani is set to attend the 68th Grammy Awards on 1 February 2026 at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, marking her as the first Indian digital creator to be present at the global music event. Her attendance, in collaboration with Johnnie Walker, reflects a shift in how international platforms recognise the role and cultural influence of Indian creators.

Sakshi Sindwani’s presence at the Grammy Awards places her among global cultural figures and signals a moment of wider representation for India’s creator community. Her participation highlights the growing recognition of homegrown digital talent on international stages, where creators are increasingly seen as contributors rather than observers.

As part of her collaboration with Johnnie Walker, Sakshi’s Grammy week will include a series of curated experiences. Ahead of the awards ceremony, she will attend a private gathering featuring the brand’s cocktail experiences, followed by a Sabrina Carpenter-themed party held in celebration of the artist’s Grammy nominations.

On the night of the awards, Sakshi will attend the ceremony wearing a custom ensemble by Indian designer Manish Malhotra. Following the event, she will also be present at the Universal Music Group’s post-Grammy party, which brings together artists and industry members to mark the evening’s winners.

Talking about this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, Sakshi Sindwani said “I have been following the Grammys for a very long time, and to be in that space has always been a dream. To be the first Indian creator to attend this significant cultural event with a brand like Johnnie Walker is next level. This was not just a mere manifestation. I have worked tirelessly, keeping my head down, and challenged norms to bring about a change in the industry I work in. The discipline and dedication I’ve shown to build this career, day after day without giving up, is why opportunities like these come. This moment is the culmination of years of relentless work and a noble vision to bring a change, and I resonate with it truly and deeply.”

Following her appearance at the Cannes Film Festival in 2025, Sakshi Sindwani’s attendance at the Grammy Awards further reflects the presence of Indian digital creators on global cultural platforms. Her journey across international events points to a changing perspective on India’s creative ecosystem and its growing role in global cultural conversations.
