Anil Agarwal, Founder and Chairman of Vedanta Group, is set to lead Riverside Studios, the iconic 100-year-old cultural landmark in London. The renowned studio, located on the River Thames, will now operate under the name ‘Anil Agarwal Riverside Studios Trust,’ becoming a center for global arts and culture. Riverside Studios, known for hosting legendary artists like The Beatles and David Bowie, will serve as a stage for immersive performances, exhibitions, and cinematic showcases, promoting cultural diversity and creativity.
Agarwal’s vision, through his #ArtInEveryHeart initiative, aims to make art universally accessible, focusing on the rich cultural connections between India and the world. “Riverside Studios will be a global destination for both Indian and international artists,” Agarwal said, inviting Indian artists to showcase their talents on this prestigious platform.
In Guwahati, this move opens up exciting opportunities for local artists and the growing cultural sector in Assam. As Indian cultural presence expands globally, platforms like Riverside Studios can offer a gateway for Guwahati’s artists to gain international recognition. This initiative highlights India’s growing influence in the global arts scene and reflects the country’s increasing participation in cross-cultural dialogues worldwide.
