Bollywood star Hrithik Roshan marked Bollywood's debut at the LACMA Art + Film Gala, one of Hollywood’s most exclusive annual cultural events. He joined Kim Kardashian, Kylie Jenner, Nicole Kidman and several other international celebrities at the 15th edition of the gala in Los Angeles on November 7.
Roshan attended the fundraiser at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) after receiving an invitation. The actor arrived on the red carpet in a tailored midnight-blue tuxedo, paired with a crisp white shirt and black bow tie. He was seen greeting photographers with folded hands.
Hollywood’s biggest night
The LACMA Art + Film Gala brings together leading figures from film, art, fashion and entertainment while supporting the museum’s efforts to expand film-focused programming. The 2026 edition was co-chaired by Oscar-winning actor Leonardo DiCaprio and LACMA trustee Eva Chow.
Roshan shared the guest list with Hollywood A-listers including Leonardo DiCaprio, Tom Hanks, Timothee Chalamet, Nicole Kidman, Andrew Garfield, Anya Taylor-Joy, Michelle Yeoh and Ashley Park. Entrepreneurs and reality-television personalities Kim Kardashian and Kylie Jenner were also among the high-profile attendees.
Indian representation on global stage
Roshan’s debut at the gala has been widely reported as the first time an Indian actor has attended the event. While LACMA has previously welcomed international celebrities from entertainment and fashion, Roshan’s invitation marks a notable milestone for Indian cinema on this particular global platform.
The development comes as Indian artists increasingly gain visibility at major international cultural and fashion events. For Roshan, whose career has spanned more than two decades in Hindi cinema, the appearance further underlines his growing presence beyond Bollywood.
