About the Surabhi Foundation:
The Surabhi Foundation for Research and Cultural Exchange
(Surabhi Foundation) is a non-profit organization, involved
in the documentation, preservation and dissemination of
India's Cultural Heritage at the National and International

Book of Records for receiving the largest measured audience
response ever in the history of Indian Television! The

The Surabhi Foundation has been conducting several large
scale cultural events since it's inception. It has organized
festivals independently as well as under the aegis of the
Mumbai Festival and also in association with the prestigious
Navi Mumbai festival. These have been attended by several
celebrities, academic dignitaries, folk artists and master
craftsmen, receiving footfalls of as many as 10,000 visitors
a day. In addition to this, the Foundation has also
organized different symposiums, workshops and lecture
demonstrations on topics related to Indian heritage, and is
currently making a series of documentaries on various facets
of Indian culture in collaboration with UNESCO for telecast
