She launched KNMA (founding year not provided), and her collection now features over 8,000 pieces by legends like Raja Ravi Varma and M.F. Husain.
She also received the Padma Shri in 2024.

KNMA is expanding big time: a new building will open, covering a massive 100,000 square feet.
The museum isn't just about showing off art; it's also focused on making art more accessible through exhibitions, education programs, and community outreach.
