A religous item with a special appeal.
Mumbai, India, 12 August, 2025: In a heartfelt celebration of devotion, culture, and creativity, Kaushik Thakkar, in collaboration with Jahnvi Doshi, unveiled the enchanting Bal Kanha doll from the treasured Krishna collection. The evening saw a glittering guest list including Rupali Ganguly, Urvashi Dholakia, Divya Agarwal, Tannaz Irani, Deepshikha Nagpal, Deepika Singh, Sreejita De, Ritu Shivpuri and many more.
Ekta Kapoor, speaking about her heartfelt connection to Lord Krishna, expressed, “I think anyone who is spiritual, even if you are not spiritual, if you are a mother, you see Lord Krishna in your children. My personal connection with Krishna is very special when I had my son and went to Shrinathji for the first time, I felt it deeply. Today, children are surrounded by superheroes and entertainment, but religion and belief are things they have to stumble upon. Before they walk that path in their teens, we can bring them closer to our roots in a fun and engaging way through something like a Kanha doll. It’s a joyful way to introduce our traditions, and our belief system to the next generation.”
Available now at Kanha Universe, the Bal Kanha doll beautifully captures the innocence and playful charm of Krishna’s childhood. Crafted with intricate detailing, it serves not only as a collectible but also as a medium to connect young hearts with India’s rich spiritual heritage. The evening was more than a product launch it was a soulful reminder of the timeless sweetness of Krishna’s childhood, blending devotion, artistry, and cultural pride.
