Monday afternoon saw a swathe of the city’s best and brightest, gather at noted art historian Saryu Doshi’s breezy art terrace-lined apartment at Cumballa Hill, to meet the young recipients of the Saryu Doshi Post Graduate Fellowships in Liberal Arts & Sciences.

“The Vinod & Saryu Doshi Foundation is a non-profit charity trust that supports initiatives in the fields of art and culture, education and community,” says a spokesperson. “In order to encourage and support Indian students pursuing Humanities, Social Sciences & Pure Sciences, the Foundation provides scholarships and fellowships to talented, but financially challenged young Indians.”
