Circle of Life

Circle of Life is an annual concert and movement by the RISHI Foundation that brings together music, dance, and storytelling to celebrate the strength of community and the power of giving. Inspired by the legacy of Rishi Shet, who believed in using his talents to uplift others, Circle of Life serves as a platform to support and empower disadvantaged children and youth. It symbolizes the ongoing cycle of support, resilience, and renewal, where every act of kindness and creativity contributes to a more compassionate and connected world. 

It symbolizes an ongoing cycle of support, resilience, and renewal, where every act of kindness and creativity helps build a more compassionate and connected world. At the heart of this initiative is Rishi’s enduring legacy. At just fourteen, he performed a solo violin concert—String Theory—in Bangalore to raise awareness and funds for orphaned and vulnerable children. Though his life was brief, his empathy and vision continue to inspire change and bring hope to many.
