Actor Hrithik Roshan made a stylish appearance at the 15th annual LACMA Art + Film Gala in Los Angeles on November 7, reportedly becoming the first mainstream Indian actor to attend the prestigious event.
The Bollywood star joined an illustrious gathering of international personalities from the worlds of film, music, fashion and art. Among those attending were Kim Kardashian, Kylie Jenner, Nicole Kidman, BLACKPINK’s Rosé, Anya Taylor-Joy, Andrew Garfield and Michelle Yeoh, alongside several other prominent figures.
For the occasion, Hrithik opted for a custom tuxedo by Italian luxury fashion house Brunello Cucinelli. In a video shared on the official social media account of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), the actor is seen greeting photographers with a namaste as he arrives at the event.
Hrithik’s appearance marks a notable moment for Indian representation at the international cultural gathering, further highlighting the growing visibility of Indian film personalities on global platforms.
The 2026 gala was co-chaired by Hollywood actor Leonardo DiCaprio and LACMA trustee Eva Chow. This year’s edition honoured visual artist Vija Celmins and filmmaker Denis Villeneuve, best known for directing the “Dune” films.
Presented by Gucci, the annual charity event celebrates the intersection of art and cinema while bringing together influential figures from the creative industries. Proceeds support LACMA’s efforts to strengthen the role of film in its curatorial programming, alongside its broader initiatives, including exhibitions, acquisitions and educational programmes.
