This documentary is a tribute to the life and legacy of the late Sir Balkrishna Doshi, India’s most celebrated architect and the first Indian to receive the Royal Gold Medal, one of the world’s highest honours in architecture, personally approved by Her Majesty The Queen. With a career spanning over seven decades and more than 100 built projects, Sir Doshi transformed the landscape of modern Indian architecture and left an indelible mark as a teacher, mentor, and visionary.
Featuring reflections from distinguished voices in global architecture—Sir David Adjaye OBE, Simon Allford (RIBA President), Marina Tabassum, and Anupama Kundoo—the film explores the far-reaching influence of Sir Doshi’s work and philosophy. It also captures the heartfelt moment when the Royal Gold Medal was presented to him at his home in Ahmedabad, surrounded by his loving family—a fitting honour to a life lived with purpose, humility, and brilliance.
