Mumbai: The gem and jewellery industry’s flagship philanthropic initiative, Jewellers for Hope 2026, concluded on a remarkable note, raising ₹1.01 crore for a noble cause and once again demonstrating the industry’s collective commitment to giving back to society.
The evening was graced by the presence of Rahul Narwekar, Hon’ble Speaker of the Maharashtra Legislative Assembly, whose humility and warm interaction with guests left a lasting impression on everyone present.
Adding glamour and purpose to the evening, Madhuri Dixit Nene inspired attendees with her warmth and unwavering belief in the power of giving back. Her presence perfectly reflected the spirit of Jewellers for Hope, which has become one of the industry’s most meaningful charitable initiatives.
A major highlight of the evening was the “Dinner with an Icon” session featuring Saurabh Gadgil, who shared his thoughts on leadership, entrepreneurship, and the importance of creating a positive impact beyond business.
Among the industry leaders attending the event was Prem Mehra from Unique Chains, who appreciated the initiative and emphasised the need for greater community participation in social causes.
“Events like Jewellers for Hope should continue to grow because philanthropy is not the responsibility of the jewellery industry alone.

It is this collective spirit of compassion and generosity that makes the world a more beautiful place,” said Prem Mehra.
With an impressive ₹1.01 crore raised, Jewellers for Hope 2026 once again showcased the collective strength of the gem and jewellery fraternity in supporting charitable initiatives. The event brought together industry leaders, entrepreneurs, philanthropists and well-wishers, all united by a common purpose to create a meaningful and lasting social impact.
