Bollywood superstar Salman Khan's an artist, who knew?

Print Brew has over the years supported and promoted artists by way of its Artists’ Initiative Programme. It is a delight to announce our association with Bollywood actor Salman Khan, who over the last 15 years, has been painting, away from the world’s eyes. Having first exhibited his works in Dubai in 2009, Salman’s paintings haven’t been displayed after that. Having evolved as an artist in the years hence, Salman’s works will be showcased through SGMF from now on. His new work Immortal: Selfless In A Selfish World was unveiled at the Foundation on February 26, 2021 as part of the launch on Google Arts and Culture. Besides this, some of the artist’s other works are also on display in one of the exhibits of SGMF on GAC. His works can be accessed on the exhibit Celebrating & Promoting Diversity In Arts.

Unveiling Hidden Truth

Rukmini Varma’s ‘Hidden Truth’ Raja Ravi Varma: The Inside Story published by Print Brew was officially unveiled on 29th April 2018 at the Foundation Headquarters on Lavelle Road.

As the Chairperson of the Foundation and being the great great granddaughter of the great artist himself, Mrs Varma has based the book upon what she has learned about Ravi Varma from her grandmother — the last Maharani of Travancore — Sethu Lakshmi Bayi, who knew much about his personal experiences that others did not.

The book was launched by eminent filmmaker Ms Parvathi Menon and Mr Venugopal Varma, son of Rukmini Varma. There was also a long and detailed conversation on the book, her reasons behind writing it and why she felt the time was right to have it published, that was moderated by Mrs Varma’s granddaughter Gowrie, who is a lawyer and filmmaker by profession.

Being the marquee event hosted by the Foundation to commemorate the 170th birth anniversary of Raja Ravi Varma, more than 120 people attended the event and 125 copies of the book were sold on its very first day.
