Cooking and storing rice for a whole week
Don't put it in the fridge, that makes rice hard. Pack it in individual servings (sandwich or snack sized zipper bags are great for this) and put them in the freezer. When you reheat the rice (microwave or boil in the bag), the rice will be almost as good as freshly made.

See: Safe to wash rice the night before and leave overnight before cooking?

And: Rice gets burnt and watery - Basmati is just the same (should usually be rinsed though).
