The Artemist’s Aradhana Dalmia, has explored new territory through establishing an art consultancy firm. Owning an art commissioning firm is a rare choice for a women entrepreneur. The firm offers a number of custom-made services including the buying, selling and commissioning of paintings, sculptures and installation according to the clients’ specifications.

The Artemist recently commissioned and gifted a beautiful portrait to Shahrukh Khan, Indian Superstar and owner of the IPL team KKR, during his recent stay in the city. The portrait was exclusively painted by Subhadip Nandy.

The words of appreciation on the portrait have inspired Aradhana to work harder and to take the firm to new heights. She said “This was a dream moment for me. The joy of gifting the creation to the Badshah could not be expressed in words. I am so glad that he liked the painting so much and said Dil khush kar dia”. Not everyone gets that chance, of course!  A year ago, when Shahrukh was casually taking a walk around with his younger son Abram at Eden Garden, little did he know that he could be clicked and that the moment would be immortalized before him in the form of a beautiful and everlasting portrait.
