RUBY DHILLON
CHARTER MODEL
SCOTLAND
“Don't be scared in life You will achieve anything if you have right support and mindset.”
Ruby Dhillon
In just a year Ruby has changed his whole outlook on the world, he has lost weight and gained confidence, going from a rotund shopkeeper to looking like a Bollywood villian and facing the world on a whole new level.
With some minor physical disabilities, he has worked around this to build himself up, build a successful business and raise a family, achievements in their own right, but to take this and then add on his confidence issues and begin a whole new phase of his life shows a depth of fortitude that Ruby himself is surprised at.
Watching him on a shoot is mildly amusing, this shy self effacing man, who worries constantly about his looks suddenly becomes sharp and is able to blossom into life as his confidence grows, admittedly many people are camera shy to start but this was a revelation to watch.
Immensely proud of his achievements (and rightly so) Ruby takes the disadvantages he has and makes them work to his favour. If this is the man after a year, it begs the question how will he be after two, or three, is there scope to see a change of dramatic proportions, and perhaps a change of direction from humble shopkeeper to character model or even movie villain? Only time will tell.
A big part of this journey is down to the support and encouragement of Burhan Javid, who has helped shape him with personal training and confidence building, nothing boosts you more than someone pushing you and giving you encouragement, there is no slacking off in Burhans world and its paid off.
The first step is always the hardest and her we are a year down the line with a portfolio of images showcasing a new man with the room to grow in confidence and physique.
