Meet Prince Kumar: The Visionary Founder Driving KalaVihar’s Cultural E-commerce Revolution

The Genesis: Why Prince Kumar Founded KalaVihar

The heart of Bihar beats with stories etched in Madhubani paintings and woven through Sikki grass art. Yet, the artisans who carry this heritage often remain disconnected from the global digital marketplace. Prince Kumar, the Founder and CEO of KalaVihar, recognized this vast disconnect. His vision was to bridge the gap between rural craftsmanship and global demand using technology.

“KalaVihar was founded not just as a marketplace, but as a digital sanctuary where every authentic piece of Bihar’s art finds its true value.” – Prince Kumar, Founder of KalaVihar.
