Welcome to the March - April 2026 issue.
On our cover this issue are Shivika Goenka, Director of Retail and Education at the RP-Sanjiv Goenka (RPSG) Group, and Shashwat Goenka, Vice Chairperson, who are shaping the next chapter of the diversified conglomerate with a vision that balances continuity with reinvention. In conversation, the couple reflects on leadership, responsibility, and the future they hope to help shape.
We feature an excerpt from BAPJI: The King Who Would Be Man by Yogi Vaid and Aman Nath, an intimate portrait of Maharaja Gajsingh II of Marwar–Jodhpur, tracing his journey from childhood coronation to public life in democratic India.
Our heritage pages revisit Marwar’s traditional stepwells and their enduring relevance today. This legacy finds modern expression in Birkha Bawari, a sandstone stepwell designed to store over 17.5 million litres of rainwater.
In our cuisine feature, we journey to Mharo Khet in the Thar Desert near Jodhpur, where the chef’s tasting menu Paeru celebrates the bounty of estate-grown ingredients through an imaginative plant-based dining experience.
In Marwar Privé, our pre-summer edit looks ahead to the seasonal shift. As temperatures rise, wardrobes and interiors begin to lighten in mood and material
Marwar is a community-based magazine with an emphasis on profiling the best and the brightest in the Marwari community. The magazine reaches the elite in India and abroad who want to read and discover the wonders of all things connected with the community. Thus, the subjects featured have to have the flavour of Marwar and Rajasthan—its culture, lifestyle and traditions. We highlight arts, crafts, music, dance and theatre as well as fashion and food that are connected to the region apart from immensely successful businessmen and businesswomen. In the past, luminaries like Laxmi Mittal, Abhishek Manu Singhvi, Indu Jain, Sanjiv Goenka and Rajashree Birla, to name a few, have graced our cover.
