A circle that keeps turning
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, it serves as a platform to support and empower disadvantaged children and youth.
It symbolises an ongoing cycle of support, resilience and renewal, where every act of kindness and creativity helps build a more compassionate and connected world.
It began with String Theory
At just fourteen, Rishi 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. Every Circle of Life concert since has been an extension of that first evening.
Every ticket and every gift supports the RISHI Foundation’s work with children and young people across India.
