    Great place to organize cultural events. It has a great atmosphere and various venue options within. The place is full of trees with beautiful colourful flowers. The buildings are very artistic, ethnic and clean.

    Visited them again for Kanakapura Road Bengali Association’s Durga Puja. Greenery everywhere and decent decoration. Had food stalls as well. Parking is mostly road side but bang outside Doddakalsandra metro station. Will visit the cafe sometime soon.

    Never expected such beautiful place in Kanakpura road. Me and my family attended ರಂಗ ಸಕ್ರಮಣ. Performance by all artists was beyond expected. No tension for parking here, they have huge space for all 2 and 4 wheelers to. Park. We also visited a restaurant "Elephants high cafe" Which was a show stopper service for that day.. Since this place have beautiful and huge garden. Become a issue to deal with mosquitoes. Especially for evening shows. All together, i m very lucky that i stay very near to place. Going to be here regularly.

    My wedding Venue 😁 Great place for a new wedding venue feeling as it is in open place, have options to choose inside the venue. The Rooms given for Bride and Groom was very big and spacious which was very helpful. The security people are little annoying and rude, else the place and the managing staff are very supportive and helpful ☺️

    One of the best and amazing location to hold wedding and other ceremony. The place is beautiful and is very well done to merge with nature and existing landscape. Must visit. The location is close to Metro station so you can avoid all the traffic on the way ! I give this one star low for one reason, that it's not friendly for older people who can't walk up and down steps and also not friendly for wheelchair and proximity to toilets.

  • 4/5 Keerthisri V. 8 months ago on Google • 109 reviews
    I visited Durga Pandal here, It was arranged very well. Decoration was beautiful. Many stalls are at this place, where we can purchase merchandise. I noticed that during Navratri time they even had kept chicken in the food stalls. It's odd as when people come to take darshan of God they don't eat non-veg. It may be common in Bengali Navratri, so not an issue. Also I bought butter and salt sweet corn there, it was priced at Rs100 on the menu which is actually costly. So while paying I asked the vendor how much he said Rs120, I was like 100 right and showed the menu, then he was like yes. Like he was about to loot 20 more. Authorities need to check on this vendor. There is only 1 stall that sells sweet corn during this 2023 Navratri, so it will be easy for authorities to know which stall. Stalls like that are shameful to the place. They need to be blacklisted and not allowed to put stall again.

    Destination Wedding in the Centre of the city 🏙️🌆 It is the old day's Drama & Theatre 🎭 Place. Today it's a Wedding Venue, creating a life time memory 🧬🧬😄😄🙌. Every Event has a specific area for the audience to live the moments together ☺️✌️🧡💜. Reception in the Amphitheatre, the Best place for the Evening pictures for every Audience, wishing the newly weds. The Mantap for the Main Event has the centre stage with a huge Tree taking care of The heat Sun Cooling Glass and Arundati Nakshatra a Yes Yes. Place I choose to the New Beginnings.

    Nice natural ambience with big area with lush greenery, bamboo plantations, trees and plants. Different buildings for function venue, dining, get together, etc. Parking space is not an issue as it can accommodate many cars. Advantage is that it's right near Doddakalasandra metro station.

    Good serene place. Located at the Doddakallasandra metro station and 2 kms from Konankute cross. The place is basically a cultural centre for training in yoga , kalari and other arts. Has got a cafe where food is really tasty! Raagi to Raaga.

    Ample Parking space. There is a big ground with grass. Low GC cars also should be able to manage without any issues. Ambience and facilities are all excellent. Had attended a friend's wedding. Definitely recommended.

    The location has multiple areas for hosting different events like wedding, receptions, art fairs, art/summer camps, classes, drama and dance events. There is a huge vast amphitheater which also be used for events attracting more audience. The location is full of greenery and actually is very cool. The premises has two big rooms with attached bathroom which can help as dressing room and also at least has 2 separate restroom and hand wash areas for the guests. They have vast kitchen area and a closed dining /multipurpose hall for serving food. There's also an openair café area which can be used for reception buffet dining. I visited this location for a pre-wedding ceremony followed by wedding and then the reception. Unlike other wedding/party venues who rent out evening to evening, this place will be available night to night, i.e., 11pm to 11pm. I also noticed kalaripayattu classes being conducted in one of the halls. It's commendable how the place has maintained its premises and the greenery. The visitors like me would surely be happy to see the wide range of flower plants and plants and trees bearing fruits. On the other hand, one thing that can surely be looked at to be bettered up is the space between the stones laid down on the walker's pavement. The gap little wider than it is expected to be. I did see few people slipping and also a few falling down because of the irregular spaces that goes unnoticed while walking causing the slips.

    Shankaraa Foundation is a Eco friendly Venue where you can conduct any kind of a family occasions such as Engagement, Naming Ceremony, Weddings & Any kind of small or huge rituals. The place is beautiful and the Art works which they have made is just Amazing. I had been there recently to take up one of my clients Decor contract and the management staffs are very humble in all the way.

    The most calming and beautiful experience at Shankara Foundation, this Navratri. The durga pandal and the pooja ceremony with the decor was mesmerising and divine. Loved being amidst so many devotees and such beautiful decor. Kudos to the organisers for pulling off the event with great food, stalls and amazing decor. An absolute must visit if you’re a theatre enthusiast. Highly recommend !

  • 5/5 Sowjanya A. 4 months ago on Google • 9 reviews
    We celebrated our son’s Upanayanam at Shankaraa foundation (Indradhanush venue) recently and we couldn’t be happier. Our family and friends loved the rustic open setting and enjoyed the ambience to the fullest. Thanks to the manager Prashanth for accommodating all my requests and for being so involved in the function through the months leading to the D day. I would highly recommend this venue for any event.

    Lush green environment near metro stop. Went for Durga Puja celebration, had a very soothing ambience.

  • 2/5 Hoslok H. 2 years ago on Google
    It's basically an open air set up. The attractiveness of the place depends upon the theme you select for the occasion by setting up the stage or how you decorate. The place by itself is nothing but land with trees and limited buildings. The main venue is quite a distance from the gate and aged people have no option but to walk as vehicles cannot drive up till there. Provision for an electric car would help. If opted for open air, unseasonal rain can wash away the entire arrangements.

    A beautiful wedding venue! Not the most fancy, but it has a lot of soul. The amphitheatre specifically is very serene and peaceful. It is a dream-like setting for a wedding.

👍 Beautiful wedding venue. Interesting guest options, if a bit rustic for a westerner. Amazing staff. The original owner was an antique collector so tons of interesting artifacts. Make sure to ask for a tour if you are staying there, they have a lot of interesting information.
