Restoration of Royal Opera House, Mumbai

The Maharaja of Gondal, Shri Vikramsinhji, bought the Opera House in 1952. His son, Shri Jyotendrasinhji, commissioned conservation architect Abha Narain Lambah for its restoration in 2010. The mammoth task was completed under the able leadership and close supervision of Maharanisaheb Kumud Kumari of Gondal and close family friend Ashish Doshi who has been named Hon. Director since it's opening in Oct 2016. The Royal Opera House Mumbai was included on the 2012 World Monuments Watch to raise awareness about its history and significance, and support preservation efforts.
