A 12-hour immersive celebration of culture, craftsmanship, and modern luxury
Robb Report India, often hailed as the global authority on luxury, unveiled its landmark inaugural RR Experience — The Royal Soiree — in collaboration with The Leela Palace, Udaipur, one of India’s most iconic luxury hospitality destinations. The experiential gathering brought together a distinguished guest list of leaders, entrepreneurs, creatives, and cultural tastemakers from across India.
Among the eminent attendees were HH Lakshyaraj Singh Mewar, Maharani Priyadarshini Raje Scindia, Samantha Ruth Prabhu, Sanya and Varun Jain, and Robb Report Circle Members including Akanksha & Tarang Arora of Amrapali, Sangita Sinh Kathiwada, Raghavendra Rathore, and Yeshwant Holkar.
The Royal Soiree
The Royal Soiree was meticulously curated as a 12-hour journey of opulence, reflective of Robb Report’s commitment to meaningful luxury. Guests were welcomed with personalised services and exclusive touchpoints across the property. A highlight of the experience included an intimate candlelit performance by celebrated musicians Amaan and Ayaan Ali Bangash, followed by a thoughtful conversation on Women and Entrepreneurship between Avarna Jain, Chairperson, RPSG Lifestyle Media, and renowned actor Samantha Ruth Prabhu.
The day culminated in a grand gala dinner against the majestic Lake Pichola, where The Leela Palace Udaipur designed a bespoke culinary celebration showcasing the rich flavours of India.
Beyond its signature soiree, the RR Experience offered guests curated encounters with The Leela’s renowned hospitality — including a pre-plated Pan-Asian lunch at The Library Bar, an oud immersive zone, a Pichwai crafts corner, and live showcases by local artists. Each moment reflected the brand’s vision: elevating luxury into emotion through immersive storytelling.
“Luxury isn’t about excess all the time. It lies in the little detailing — creating moments and experiences that stay with you forever,” shared Avarna Jain, Chairperson, RPSG Lifestyle Media. “With The Royal Soiree, it was our endeavour to share a slice of experiential storytelling with a community that deeply values craftsmanship, culture, and conversation. Robb Report India is more than luxury; it’s a way of life — thoughtful, inspired, and beautifully lived.”
Adding to this, Anuraag Bhatnagar, Chief Executive Officer at The Leela Palaces, Hotels and Resorts, said:
“Luxury today is about crafting stories that linger. Together with Robb Report India, The Royal Soiree celebrated not just the grandeur of The Leela, but the essence of India’s evolving luxury narrative rooted in culture, expressed through artistry, and delivered with warmth.”
