Over the years, Wishlink has worked behind the scenes with some of India’s most recognisable digital creators, helping them turn content into commerce and influence into meaningful income. Creators of Change is the one platform where that work steps into the spotlight.

The evening brought together a diverse mix of creators and brand partners, but it was intentionally designed to go beyond a typical industry event. While the awards recognised creators who have evolved into entrepreneurs building businesses, communities, and real consumer impact, the experience extended far beyond the stage.

A key highlight was the screening of Frame by Frame by Wishlink, a documentary capturing the unfiltered realities of a creator’s journey, featuring Tarini Shah, Simran Balar Jain, and Karan Gangwani.

The event also featured immersive brand experiences and interactive setups designed to bring creators offline and into shared, real-world moments.

Notable attendees included Tarini Shah, Sanya Mirwani, Pari Dua, Asfi Javed, Dolly Javed, Simran Balar Jain, Anushka Hazra, Tarun Kinra, and Aditi Shrestha.

“Creators of Change isn’t just an awards night, it’s a reminder of why we do what we do. Every creator in this room has built something real, and we feel incredibly lucky to support that journey,” said Divyansh Ameta, Co-Founder, Wishlink.

The scale of Wishlink’s ecosystem continues to reflect the rapid growth of India’s creator economy. In the last month alone, the platform saw over 1 lakh active creators publishing 50 lakh+ content pieces, generating 50 billion+ impressions and influencing over 5 crore purchase decisions.

This year’s edition stood out for its scale, more creators, more brands, and more proof that this ecosystem has grown into something impossible to ignore. Yet, the core belief remains unchanged: creators today are not just content producers, they are entrepreneurs, tastemakers, and powerful drivers of how India discovers, decides, and shops.

For Wishlink, the event marks both a celebration and a signal; the platform powering much of India’s creator commerce ecosystem is only accelerating, and so are the creators building within it.

New Delhi [India], April 20: In a rapidly evolving corporate media landscape where influence is increasingly defined by access and credibility, Alok Ranjan Tiwari, Managing Director & CEO of Eternal Corporate Media Private Limited, is emerging as a powerful new-age media entrepreneur. His recent flagship event, Inspiring India, has drawn widespread attention for bringing together some of the most influential names in Indian industry, led by Mukesh Ambani, Chairman & Managing Director of Reliance Industries Limited, who attended the programme as the Guest of Honour for over two hours.

Conceptualised and organised by Tiwari, Inspiring India was held on the occasion of International Human Solidarity Day, with a central theme of unity, inclusion, and innovation for humanity. The event stood out not only for its purpose-driven narrative but also for the extraordinary presence of India’s top business leaders and policymakers, reflecting Tiwari’s growing stature in the corporate ecosystem.

Alongside RIL’s CMD Mukesh Ambani, the event was attended by some of India’s most prominent industrialists, including Ajay Piramal, Chairman of Piramal Enterprises Limited and the Piramal Group;  Nikhil Meswani, Executive Director of Reliance Industries Limited; Hital Meswani, Executive Director of Reliance Industries Limited; Deepak Parekh, Former Chairman of HDFC; Dr. Swati Piramal, Vice Chairperson of Piramal Enterprises Limited; Shekhar Bajaj, Chairman of Bajaj Electricals Limited; Rajju Shroff, Chairman Emeritus of UPL Limited; Dr. Murtaza Khorakiwala, Managing Director of Wockhardt Limited, among others. Their participation elevated the event into one of the most significant corporate gatherings of the year.

The programme also featured  Chandrakant Patil, Minister of Higher & Technical Education, Government of Maharashtra, as Chief Guest, along with Professor Man Mohan Sharma, Padma Vibhushan awardee and eminent chemical engineer, as Guest of Honour. At the centre of the event was Dr. Raghunath Mashelkar, former Director General of the Council of Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR), whose landmark achievement of receiving 54 honorary doctorates was celebrated as a moment of national pride. The occasion was marked by special coffee table book launches, underscoring Eternal Corporate Media’s role in documenting leadership legacies and intellectual milestones. 

The scale and credibility of Inspiring India were further reinforced by its high-powered organising committee, constituted by Alok Ranjan Tiwari and chaired by Shailesh Haribhakti, Non-Executive Chairman of Mirae Asset Mutual Fund, Protean eGov Technologies Limited and IBS Fintech India, and Independent Director on the boards of multiple leading corporations. The committee also included Nadir Godrej, Chairman & Managing Director of Godrej Industries Group;  Niraj Bajaj, Chairman of Bajaj Auto Limited and Chairman & Managing Director of Mukand Limited;  Harsh Mariwala, Chairman of Marico Limited;  Satyajeet Tambe, Member of the Maharashtra Legislative Council;  Ravi Pandit, Chairman of KPIT Technologies Limited; and Sulajja Firodia Motwani, Founder & CEO of Kinetic Green Energy & Power Solutions Limited. The presence of such a distinguished committee reflected the trust and institutional credibility Tiwari has built within India’s corporate leadership.

However, Inspiring India was a part of a broader vision under Tiwari’s leadership. Eternal Corporate Media has, in a short span, created a multi-sector platform that connects industry leaders, policymakers, and knowledge institutions. As highlighted in the company’s Annual Impact Report 2025-26, the organisation hosted three flagship national events during the year, featuring more than 80 CEOs and industrialists as speakers and over 1200 CXOs and senior professionals as audience participants across sectors such as government, finance, ESG, MSME, and technology. 

One of the key platforms, the Sustainability Convergence Summit & Awards 2025, brought together influential voices driving India’s ESG and sustainability agenda. The summit was attended by Jayant Sinha, former Minister of State for Finance and Civil Aviation, Government of India, as Chief Guest, along with Nadir Godrej, Chairman & Managing Director of Godrej Industries Group;  Shailesh Haribhakti, leading corporate figure and independent director; and Pradip Shah, Co-founder of IndAsia Fund Advisors and Founder of HDFC. The event also featured industry leaders such as  Suresh Manglani, CEOof Adani Total Gas Limited;  Alok Aggarwal, Managing Director & CEO of Brookfield Properties India; Arvind Bansal, Whole-time Director & CEO of Continuum Green Energy Limited; Shachindra Nath, Founder & Managing Director of UGRO Capital Limited;  Jyoti Prakash Gadia, Managing Director of Resurgent India Limited; Anthony Heredia, Managing Director & CEO of Mahindra Manulife Mutual Fund; and  Balasubramanian A., Managing Director & CEO of Aditya Birla Sun Life Asset Management Company Limited; Amisha Vora, Chairperson & MD of PL Capital Group, among others. The summit provided a platform for dialogue across finance, infrastructure, and sustainability sectors, reinforcing Eternal Corporate Media’s position in ESG thought leadership. 

Similarly, the India by MSME initiative focused on strengthening India’s entrepreneurial ecosystem by addressing the needs of small and medium enterprises. The event featured  Mangal Prabhat Lodha, Minister in the Government of Maharashtra, as Chief Guest, along with Ravi Ranjan, Managing Director & CEO of State Bank of India, and Manoj Mittal, Chairman & Managing Director of Small Industries Development Bank of India (SIDBI) as Guests of Honour. The forum also brought together key industry voices, including Navneet Munot, Managing Director & CEO of HDFC Asset Management Company Limited; Amish Mehta, Chairman & Managing Director of CRISIL Limited;  Harish Mehta, Founder Chairman of NASSCOM;  Jaspal Bindra, Executive Chairman of Centrum Capital Limited;  Saurabh Nanavati, Managing Director & CEO of Invesco Mutual Fund; and  D.P. Singh, Joint Managing Director & Deputy CEO of SBI Funds Management Limited, among others. The discussions centred on MSME financing, digital transformation, and policy reforms critical to India’s growth trajectory. 

Tiwari’s leadership philosophy, as reflected in his message in the impact report, is centred on building platforms that “inspire ideas, enable collaboration, and contribute to India’s growth story.” Industry observers believe that this approach distinguishes him from traditional media entrepreneurs, as he focuses not just on content creation but on building ecosystems of influence that bring together diverse stakeholders.

Having started his career at a young age, Tiwari represents a new generation of media leaders who combine journalism, corporate storytelling, and strategic networking. Through Eternal Corporate Media, he has created a platform that not only documents the journeys of India’s leading business personalities but also facilitates high-level dialogue across sectors.

The impact of these initiatives is evident in the outcomes outlined in the report. Inspiring India reinforced India’s intellectual leadership and strengthened ties with top industrialists and policymakers, while the Sustainability Convergence Summit advanced ESG collaboration and India by MSME deepened engagement between financial institutions and enterprises. 

With the successful hosting of Mukesh Ambani and the participation of leading industrialists such as Ajay Piramal, Nikhil Meswani, Deepak Parekh, Swati Piramal, Nadir Godrej, Niraj Bajaj and Deepak Parekh, Alok Ranjan Tiwari has demonstrated his ability to convene India’s most influential voices on a single platform. As India continues its ascent as a global economic powerhouse, such platforms are becoming increasingly important, and Tiwari is positioning himself at the centre of this evolving narrative-shaping conversations that define the future of Indian industry, policy, and innovation.

Shri Sujeet Kumar, Member of Parliament, Rajya Sabha,  with CH Kim, Chief Executive Officer, KRAFTON Inc. and Sean Hyunil Sohn, Chief Executive Officer, KRAFTON India.”

New Delhi [India], April 20:  CH Kim, Chief Executive Officer, KRAFTON Inc., met with Shri Sujeet Kumar, Member of Parliament, Rajya Sabha, to discuss the evolving role of gaming in India’s digital economy and the country’s growing importance in KRAFTON’s global strategy. The interaction focused on how India is emerging not only as one of the world’s largest gaming markets, but also as a potential hub for game development, innovation, and digital content creation. 

Shri Sujeet Kumar serves on the Parliamentary Committee on Communications and Information Technology and is the youngest Member of Parliament to have chaired a parliamentary committee. He has previously chaired the Committee on Petitions. He brings a strong policy and governance perspective to the discussion, particularly on the role of emerging digital sectors in India’s economic growth.

The discussion comes at a time when India’s gaming ecosystem is rapidly expanding, driven by a large and young digital population, increasing smartphone penetration, and growing interest in esports and interactive entertainment. KRAFTON outlined its long-term approach to India, which goes beyond publishing to building a broader ecosystem across investments, developer support, and content creation. Through initiatives like the KRAFTON India Gaming Incubator (KIGI) and its investments in India’s technology ecosystem, the company is working to enable early-stage studios and support the creation of India-first IPs with global potential.

KRAFTON’s ecosystem approach is also reflected in its investments in India’s broader technology and digital entertainment landscape. The company has invested over $250 million in Indian startups across gaming, content, and technology, and recently announced the KRAFTON–NAVER–Mirae Asset Unicorn Growth Fund, with a corpus of up to ₹6,000 crore, aimed at supporting high-growth technology companies in India. With India at the centre of this strategy, these investments are designed to strengthen the overall ecosystem that enables gaming, creators, and digital innovation to scale.

The meeting also highlighted the growing role of gaming and Esports in shaping youth engagement, creating new career pathways, and contributing to digital skill development across sectors such as technology, design, and content. Both sides discussed the importance of a stable and forward-looking policy environment to support long-term investments, encourage innovation, and strengthen India’s position within the global gaming ecosystem.

CH Kim, Chief Executive Officer, KRAFTON Inc., said, “India is one of the most important markets for KRAFTON, not just for its scale but for its potential as a global game development hub. With a strong base of young, skilled technology talent and improving digital infrastructure, we see India evolving from a consumption-driven market to a creator economy for gaming. Our investments of over $250 million in Indian startups, along with the ₹6,000 crore Unicorn Growth Fund with NAVER and Mirae Asset, reflect our long-term commitment to this ecosystem. Through initiatives like KIGI, we are focused on enabling Indian studios to build globally competitive IP while also supporting the broader technology and creator landscape that will define the future of gaming.”

Shri Sujeet Kumar, Member of Parliament, Rajya Sabha, said, “India’s gaming ecosystem is entering a high-growth phase, supported by a young, tech-savvy population and expanding digital infrastructure. The country has the potential to emerge as a global hub for gaming, Esports, and digital content creation.

Realising this opportunity will require a stable and enabling policy environment, along with continued focus on skill development, innovation, and industry collaboration. Investments in startups and initiatives that support the wider digital ecosystem, including the creator economy, will play an important role in unlocking long-term growth and employment opportunities in this sector.”

As India’s gaming ecosystem continues to evolve, the next phase of growth will depend on deeper collaboration between industry, developers, and policymakers. With the right focus on talent, innovation, and global competitiveness, India is well positioned to emerge as a leading force in the future of gaming and digital entertainment.

Los Angeles (California), April 20: The Super Mario Galaxy Movie isn’t just leading the box office—it’s bending it.
$747.5 million globally, with key markets still to report at full strength. Japan remains pending. South Korea follows. The ceiling isn’t fixed—only modeled, currently circling $1.17 billion, subject to the usual late-cycle fatigue.

But the signal sits beneath the total.

The film is tracking roughly 14% behind The Super Mario Bros. Movie. A measurable slowdown. Weekend declines are steeper. Momentum, while intact, is no longer frictionless.

It still doesn’t alter the outcome. The baseline is too elevated.

This weekend pushed the Mario film franchise beyond $2 billion globally. Not a disruptive milestone—an affirming one. Nintendo’s film strategy has moved out of trial phase. It now operates at scale.

The Mummy Opens Within Range, Leans on Overseas Markets

Against that backdrop, The Mummy entered the market with a controlled debut.

$34 million worldwide.
$13.5 million from North America.
The majority sourced internationally—led by Mexico, the UK, and Indonesia.

The distribution is expected. The film is calibrated differently.

The premise—a missing daughter who returns altered, preserved, wrong—anchors a tonal shift under director Lee Cronin. The approach moves away from possession spectacle toward restrained, body-centered horror.

Commercial expectations follow that design.

With a reported $22 million production budget, the film is positioned for durability rather than breakout. International performance carries the model. Profitability remains viable without domestic dominance.

Mid-budget horror continues to function as a contained-risk segment—dependent on global turnout, insulated from franchise-level pressure.

Project Hail Mary Maintains Unusual Stability in Week Five

In its fifth weekend, Project Hail Mary continues to resist standard decay patterns.

North America declined just 15%.
Global total stands at $573.1 million.

The trajectory now invites comparison with The Martian—not in scale alone, but in endurance.

The film’s structure—scientific, contained, and character-driven—typically limits repeatability in wide markets. Yet performance remains consistent.

No surge. No drop-off. Sustained engagement.

The data point is increasingly difficult to dismiss.

Regional Markets Reinforce Fragmentation

Beyond the global leaders, regional markets continue to operate independently of broader trends.

Japan extends its sustained performance cycle with Detective Conan: Fallen Angel of the Highway, now 29 entries deep, delivering a $12.3 million weekend.

France contributed Juste Une Illusion, opening to $3.7 million—modest scale, stable entry.

These outcomes reinforce an ongoing shift: the global box office is no longer a unified system. It behaves as a network of localized demand patterns, occasionally overlapping, rarely aligning.

No Single Market Narrative

A billion-dollar outcome for Mario is increasingly probable. That projection is stabilizing.

But the broader market resists consolidation.

A high-performing sequel trending below its predecessor yet maintaining dominance.
A mid-budget horror release structured for longevity, not scale.
A science-fiction title outperforming expectations through consistency rather than peaks.

These are not competing models. They are parallel ones.

The box office is no longer moving in a single direction.

It is segmenting—by scale, by genre, by geography.

And within that segmentation, success is no longer defined uniformly, but situationally.

PNN Entertainment

New Delhi [India], April 16: The upcoming Kannada film Bengaluru Inn is already generating buzz for its gripping narrative and powerful performances. Actor Kumar Kanhaiya Singh steps into a compelling and intense role as Rahul, a stylish young man from North India whose charm masks a dangerously ambitious and money-driven personality.

Rahul is depicted as soft-spoken, calculated, and outwardly calm—but beneath this composed exterior lies a ruthless operator. Driven by greed and a relentless hunger for power, he builds and manages a gang to execute his carefully planned operations. As the story unfolds, his criminal network and strategies begin to unravel when the film’s hero, along with the police, closes in on his activities. This layered character promises to showcase Kumar Kanhaiya Singh in a dynamic and challenging negative role, blending subtlety with intensity.

Carrying forward the legacy of the globally renowned Miss Universe platform—which has produced iconic winners such as Sushmita Sen (1994) and Lara Dutta (2000)—the evening reflected a blend of confidence, purpose, and modern ambition.

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], April 15: The problem with making the Ramayana in 2026 is not scale. India knows scale. Bigger sets. Bigger stars. Bigger claims.

The problem is trust.

After Adipurush, the audience is no longer impressed by numbers alone. People have seen what happens when mythology is treated like a visual-effects experiment. The reaction was not just disappointment. It was irritation. The feeling that something familiar had been turned into something synthetic.

That is the shadow hanging over Nitesh Tiwari’s Ramayana.

The teaser arrived on Hanuman Jayanti. The timing was deliberate. So was the message. This is not being presented as another film. It is being presented as an event.

With a reported budget close to ₹4,000 crore, Ramayana is already being described as the most expensive Indian film project ever attempted. But that number is not the real story. The real story is whether Indian cinema can finally create a mythological world that feels lived-in rather than digitally assembled.

The first glimpse gave a partial answer.

Ranbir Kapoor as Rama looked quieter than expected. Not dramatic. Not overtly heroic. There was restraint in the face, which helped. The role needs stillness more than performance, and for a moment, it worked.

Then the teaser widened.

Ayodhya appeared. Forests appeared. Large digital landscapes unfolded across the screen.

And immediately, the same old concern returned.

Everything looked expensive. Not everything looked real.

The lighting was polished. The frames were clean. Too clean. Some of the forests looked less like forests and more like a game environment waiting for a character to walk through it. The architecture had scale, but not weight. Even online, the language people used was telling: “too smooth,” “too artificial,” “AI-like.”

The criticism is not that the film uses technology. Every large film does. The criticism is that the technology is visible.

The best visual effects disappear into the story. You stop noticing them. Here, people noticed them first.

That matters because the Ramayana does not survive on spectacle alone. It survives on emotional memory. Everyone already has their own version of these places in their head. Ayodhya is not just a city. Lanka is not just a kingdom. They are inherited images. The audience is not coming to discover them. The audience is coming to see whether the film understands them.

To be fair, the team behind this film is probably the strongest any Indian production has assembled.

The project is backed by Prime Focus Studios, DNEG, and Monster Mind Creations. DNEG is not an ordinary VFX studio. This is the company behind Dune, the film that made deserts feel spiritual and silence feel enormous.

That is why expectations are so high. Not because people doubt the budget. Because people know the talent is there.

The music pairing says the same thing. Hans Zimmer and A. R. Rahman working together sounds almost unreal on paper. One brings scale. The other brings feeling. If the film has a chance of finding emotional rhythm, it is probably here.

The casting also feels more considered than flashy.

Sai Pallavi as Sita makes immediate sense because she brings something rare to the screen: calm without distance. Yash as Ravana is the opposite choice—larger, louder, more physically commanding. That contrast could work.

Then there is Arun Govil playing Dasharatha.

That is the one decision that feels quietly brilliant.

For one generation, Arun Govil was Rama. Not an actor playing Rama. Rama. Seeing him now as Dasharatha creates a strange emotional bridge between the television version people grew up with and the new version trying to replace it. The film does not say this directly, but the casting does.

Still, none of this solves the central question.

Can this film make myth feel human again?

That is where Nitesh Tiwari becomes important. He is not known for visual excess. He is known for emotional control. Dangal worked because the characters felt ordinary before they became extraordinary. Chhichhore worked because it understood memory, regret and friendship without forcing them.

Ramayana needs that same instinct.

Because this story does not need to be modernized. It does not need to be louder or darker or more “global.” It only needs to feel true.

That is harder than it sounds.

The makers want this to be India’s answer to Dune or The Lord of the Rings. The ambition is understandable. But those films worked because the world came second. The emotion came first.

You believed in Arrakis because you believed in Paul. You believed in Middle-earth because you believed in Frodo.

The same rule applies here.

If people believe in Rama and Sita, the cities will follow.

If they do not, no amount of VFX will save it.

The first part releases during Diwali 2026. Until then, the conversation will continue. Every teaser will be examined. Every frame will be discussed. The internet has become less patient, but also more precise. People know exactly what they do not want.

They do not want another mythology that looks like software.

They want one that feels like memory.

The Routine Your Body Has Been Waiting For

New Delhi [India], April 15: Sleep optimization isn’t a trend.
It’s what happens after people realize something broke.

No one chased sleep for fun. They lost it first.

Too many screens. Work bleeding into midnight. Notifications that never end. The body tried to keep up. For a while, it did. Then it didn’t.

That’s when the shift began. Not toward “better sleep.” Toward repair.

What Sleep Optimization Actually Means

It’s not about adding hours.
It’s about restoring order.

Same time. Same rhythm. Same signals.

The body doesn’t resist sleep. It resists chaos.

Most people don’t have insomnia.
They have inconsistency dressed up as a lifestyle.

Why Sleep Cycles Are Breaking in 2026

Nothing dramatic. Just accumulation.

Individually, manageable.
Stacked together, enough to derail the system.

How People Are Fixing Their Sleep Schedule

No hacks. No magic. Just repetition.

Fixed Timing

Same sleep time. Same wake time. Every day.

Not flexible. Not negotiable.

The body stops guessing. Starts following.

Light Discipline

Morning light in. Night light out.

Sunlight early. Screens dimmed late.

No extremes. Just control.

Digital Cut-Off

A rule that’s sticking:

No screens 60–90 minutes before bed.

Not because screens are evil.
Because the brain doesn’t know how to slow down with them.

Environment Reset

Cool room. Dark space. Quiet edges.

Nothing fancy. Just predictable.

When the setting stops changing, the body stops resisting.

Stimulant Control

Caffeine has a timeline now.

Cut off by late afternoon. No spillover into night.

People are finally connecting the dots—
you don’t sabotage sleep all day and expect recovery at night.

The Tools People Are Using

Technology created the noise. Now it’s being used to measure it.

Sleep tracking apps.
Smartwatches.
White noise machines.
Blue light filters.

None of them fix sleep.

They expose patterns.
And once patterns are visible, behavior starts shifting.

What Actually Works

No surprises here.

There’s a pattern inside the pattern:

Behavior beats shortcuts.

The Real Shift

Sleep optimization isn’t about doing more.

It’s subtraction.

Less light at night.
Less stimulation.
Less randomness.

The body already knows the process.

What it needs is stability.
A routine it can trust without hesitation.

And once it gets that—
sleep doesn’t need to be chased.

It returns.

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], April 15: Usually, box office records in Indian cinema fall in slow motion. One film edges past another, the numbers shuffle, and that’s that. But what’s happened these last 26 days? That broke the script completely. No gentle climb, no steady rise—just a sudden leap that left everyone else behind.

With Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge, Aditya Dhar didn’t just roll out another sequel. He built something much bigger—a franchise that shattered the old limits. You don’t see numbers like this: the Dhurandhar series blasted past ₹3,000 crore worldwide. No Indian franchise had ever done that.

Look at what it left in the dust. S. S. Rajamouli’s Baahubali series topped out at ₹2,438 crore. Allu Arjun’s Pushpa films scored ₹2,092 crore. These weren’t just popular—they set the standard. But now? They got overtaken.

The stats say it all. The first Dhurandhar pulled in ₹1,307.35 crore. The sequel already crossed ₹1,712 crore, bringing the total to ₹3,019.35 crore. That’s not just momentum; that’s straight-up acceleration.

And the real gamble? Time.

A movie that runs for 3 hours and 55 minutes is asking a lot. People barely want to give two hours these days, what with fast cuts, short attention spans, and phones always buzzing. A 235-minute film should feel like a risk.

But it worked.

Audiences didn’t back away—they leaned in. The movie takes its time, lets scenes breathe, and somehow that extra length turns into a feature, not a bug.

The story picks up where the 2025 film left off. Jaskirat Singh Rangi—Hamza Ali Manzari—played by Ranveer Singh, is undercover again, operating across borders. His performance stands out not because he’s flashy, but because the pressure shows. He doesn’t try to be the hero every second. You see the weight on him.

When Dhurandhar 2 released on March 19, 2026, it went head-to-head with Ustaad Bhagat Singh starring Pawan Kalyan. Normally, that sort of clash splits ticket sales, but not this time. Both films did fine, but Dhurandhar 2 just sprinted off on its own track.

And the cast? They absolutely held it together.

For a film this long, you need people with presence. Sanjay Dutt and Arjun Rampal give off this steady menace without saying much. R. Madhavan is precise, razor-sharp. Sara Arjun and Rakesh Bedi bring in the quiet, everyday moments, making sure the film never gets lost inside its own scale.

The real surprise: the money didn’t come from China or the Gulf, which is where Indian blockbusters usually break through. This time, it was India itself and the Western diaspora doing the heavy lifting. That shift changes things—it points to a new center of gravity for Indian films.

For years, Indian filmmakers treated sequels like afterthoughts. You slapped on a familiar name but told a totally new story. The link was mostly marketing, not continuity.

Dhurandhar flipped the script. It planned for the long haul, building continuity across films and rewarding audiences for sticking with it. Trade trackers like Sacnilk are paying attention for a reason: ₹3,000 crore isn’t just a statistic. It means Indian movies can pull off big, multi-part sagas the way Hollywood franchises do.

The box office numbers hammer that home. In just 26 days, Dhurandhar 2 pulled in ₹1,311.68 crore gross in India, netting ₹1,095.67 crore. These aren’t just blockbusters—they’re cultural events.

Aditya Dhar did more than just release a massive film. He reset the bar for what a “big film” even means. Stretch one story across two huge chapters, give people room to immerse themselves, and keep them coming back. That approach isn’t common for Indian cinema on this scale.

Now, the definition of a blockbuster is something else entirely. The ceiling just got raised.

For everyone who made it through all 235 minutes, the film wasn’t about record-breaking. It felt patient, grounded. Like something important setting roots. The weight of what you’d just watched—well, that only hits you later.

New Delhi [India], April 15: Emerging Punjabi artist Ekam is set to strike an emotional chord with his upcoming track Hissey, a soulful sad-pop number that dives deep into heartbreak, betrayal, and introspection. Slated for release on April 15, the song is part of his much-anticipated Mahoul EP, a project that explores the many emotional atmospheres of modern life.

Hissey stands out as one of the most vulnerable tracks on the EP, capturing the emotional aftermath of broken trust and the contrast between loyalty and deception. With its melancholic tone and reflective lyrics, the song represents the quieter, more introspective side of the Mahoul universe.

Sharing his thoughts on the track, Ekam said, “Hissey is not just a song, it’s a feeling. It talks about the parts of love that stay with you even after everything falls apart. This track is very personal—it’s about betrayal, but also about understanding your own emotions in silence.”

The Mahoul EP is envisioned as a 360-degree sonic journey, reflecting the shifting environments people navigate today—from high-energy social settings to deeply personal moments of solitude. Each track defines a distinct “Mahoul” (atmosphere), blending contemporary production with storytelling rooted in real emotions.

Ekam’s musical journey traces back to Delhi, where he discovered his passion for music at the age of 11. Growing up in a family steeped in artistry, with his father being a professional tabla player, he was exposed early to rich musical traditions. Deeply inspired by Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, Ekam honed his craft through years of dedication, performing at Dargahs and immersing himself in Sufi music.

Before stepping into the spotlight as a solo artist, he collaborated with several Sufi bands as a backing vocalist, eventually evolving into a multifaceted creator. Today, his music reflects a seamless blend of Sufi soul, pop melodies, and hip-hop influences, making his sound both rooted and contemporary.

With teasers already building anticipation, Hissey is poised to become a relatable anthem for anyone navigating the complexities of love and loss, further establishing Ekam as a promising voice in India’s independent music scene.

TimbuckDo Appoints Actor Pratik Gandhi as Brand Ambassador: A power-packed collaboration to redefine the future of work

This association reflects TimBuckDo’s approach of converting moments of relevance into long-term strategic value. The initial interaction, where Pratik Gandhi highlighted the lack of structured early work opportunities, created a strong alignment with the platform’s core mission. That alignment now extends beyond communication into contribution.

While Pratik Gandhi comes on board as the face of the brand, the collaboration is designed to go deeper. Within TimBuckDo’s communication and campaigns, he is positioned as a Chief Bro Officer (CBO), a symbolic role that reflects guidance, relatability, and trust.

The intent is to move beyond traditional celebrity endorsement and build a voice that feels closer to students. Through this lens, Pratik Gandhi emerges as a “big brother” figure, someone who brings lived experience, shares perspective, and helps students navigate their early journeys in the gig economy with more clarity and confidence. The collaboration also extends beyond communication, with Pratik Gandhi bringing in his perspectives to support broader ecosystem and strategic thinking. His journey through multiple early gigs before finding stability lends authenticity to this positioning, making the messaging both aspirational and grounded.

As a two-sided platform, TimBuckDo operates at the intersection of demand and talent supply, guided by a 60-30-10 execution framework focusing on employer acquisition, student onboarding, and brand-building. This collaboration is designed to strengthen all three levers by enhancing trust, relatability, and ecosystem engagement.

The move is backed by data-led validation across digital campaigns, campus activations, and interactions with 1,000+ students, which showed a clear lift in engagement, recall, and platform trust with Pratik Gandhi, making this a performance-driven decision, not just an endorsement.

Commenting on the announcement, the founders of TimBuckDo, Mythri Kumar and Apoorv Sharma, said, “We are excited to welcome Pratik Gandhi as we enter our next phase of growth. This is not a conventional brand ambassador partnership. Today’s generation engages with brands very differently; they value authenticity, relatability, and real stories. This collaboration is built on that shift, where influence comes from lived experience, not just visibility. We see this as a strong lever to deepen trust, drive participation, and strengthen the ecosystem.”

Sharing his perspective, Pratik Gandhi said, “I come from a phase where every early opportunity was a learning curve, but there was no guidance to navigate it. What TimBuckDo is building changes that. If today I can contribute to a platform that not only creates opportunities but also brings direction and confidence to students, that’s something I truly believe in. This is not just an association, it’s something I want to actively be part of.”

With this move, TimBuckDo aims to strengthen its positioning as a structured and scalable bridge between students and employers, while also building a more insight-led, guidance-driven ecosystem for early work opportunities in India.

Rashmika and Ranveer in the new TV Commercial by Kajaria

Built on the insight that thoughtfully designed homes naturally attract admiration, the commercial positions superior tiles and bathware as effortless conversation starters. The film features Ranveer Singh and Rashmika Mandanna as an accomplished Army couple hosting a senior Brigadier and his wife at their picturesque hillside home.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=lidmgWzL2yk

Blending warmth, pride, humour and relatability, the TVC concludes with a powerful message: when you choose Kajaria Tiles and Kerovit bathware, appreciation is inevitable — because “Log Toh Poochenge Hi”.

Conceptualized as a high-visibility brand push, the campaign continues Kajaria’s strategy of combining celebrity-led storytelling with sharp consumer insight to reinforce aspiration, recall and product credibility across India’s rapidly preimmunizing housing market. By seamlessly integrating both tiles and bathware within one cohesive narrative, the film further strengthens Kajaria’s positioning as a comprehensive premium home solutions brand.

Commenting on the association, Mr. Chetan Kajaria, Vice Chairman at Kajaria Ceramics Ltd. said, “At Kajaria, we are constantly evolving to stay aligned with the aspirations of modern Indian consumers. Bringing Rashmika Mandanna on board alongside Ranveer Singh reflects our commitment to building a strong cultural connect with homeowners across regions, We look forward to leveraging this powerful partnership to further strengthen our engagement with customers and inspire beautiful living spaces across the country.”

Commenting on the campaign, Mr. Rishi Kajaria, Managing Director at Kajaria Ceramics Ltd. said, “With ‘Log Toh Poochenge Hi,’ our objective is to elevate the brand conversation towards emotion and brand ownership while showcasing modern design and uncompromised quality. Today’s consumers see their homes as an expression of identity, and Kajaria’s tiles and Kerovit bathware play a central role in enabling that aspiration. Bringing Indian cinema’s force Ranveer Singh and Rashmika Mandanna together in a relatable, story-led narrative allows us to strengthen Kajaria’s positioning as a complete premium home solutions brand while expanding our reach across every corner of the country, especially in the southern markets.”

Ranveer Singh added: “What I love about this campaign is how relatable the insight is — when you build a home with care and great design, it naturally becomes special. The film showcases that pride in a very fun, slice-of-life way. Shooting this with Rashmika was great, and I think audiences will really enjoy how the campaign put smiles on faces.”

Rashmika Mandanna said, “This phase of life makes the idea of ‘home’ feel even more special to me, which is why this film felt very close to my heart. It beautifully captures how a home isn’t just about how it looks, but how it reflects your journey and the life you’re building together. The story has a lovely warmth to it, and shooting it with Ranveer brought such fun and easy chemistry that I think audiences will truly feel on screen.”

The TVC is being rolled out across television and digital platforms, supported by outdoor, print and cinema amplification. Kajaria expects the campaign to further strengthen brand salience in the premium category while driving cross-category adoption between tiles and bathware as it scales its integrated home solutions strategy.

New Delhi [India], April 15: In one of the more expansive financial resolutions in recent corporate history, the Sterling Biotech matter has culminated in a substantial ₹9,800 crore recovery. Delivered by industrialist Nitin J. Sandesara and his group, the resolution reflects a structured and comprehensive settlement, resulting in a balanced outcome for both the lending institutions and the promoters.

The genesis of the matter can be traced to an initial reference amount of ₹5,383 crore. Over the course of the proceedings, the group demonstrated a sustained approach toward financial compliance and restitution. A sum of ₹3,507 crore was directly transferred to the consortium of lenders, while an additional ₹1,192 crore was realised through established liquidation mechanisms.

In the final phase, a significant settlement deposit was placed on record before the Supreme Court of India. As noted in its compliance order dated December 17, 2025, “the amount deposited comes to Rs. 51,11,43,36,390.40/-. When aggregated with prior recoveries, the total realised value stands at approximately ₹9,800 crore.

This cumulative recovery, notably exceeding the originally referenced amount, underscores the scale and completeness of the resolution. For the lending institutions, this translates into a substantial and value-accretive recovery, reinforcing financial closure after a prolonged process.

At the same time, the promoters have achieved full and final settlement through demonstrated financial commitment across multiple stages. With all obligations addressed, the matter has reached a point of closure, allowing for a forward-looking reset.

Recognising the extent of recovery and the consensus achieved, the Court directed that the matter be treated as fully resolved, bringing the proceedings to a close. This effectively concluded all associated processes, marking the end of a long-standing financial dispute.

In early April 2026, attention turned toward completing the remaining formalities. During the proceedings, it was submitted that a balance amount of ₹45,70,522 would be deposited to fulfil the last procedural requirement under the settlement framework.

The deposit was completed on April 13, 2026, thereby giving full effect to the settlement and closing all pending aspects of the matter.

Taken together, the resolution represents a rare instance where a large-scale financial matter has reached closure with clear outcomes on both sides, substantial recovery for lenders, and complete settlement for the promoters. It reflects a process where financial discipline, structured execution, and eventual alignment have resulted in a mutually conclusive outcome.

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], April 15: Indian music has lost one of its most timeless voices on Sunday, April 12, 2026. Asha Bhosle died at the age of 92 in a hospital in Mumbai. She was not just a singer; she was a lifetime laborer and a lifelong learner.

Starting Young

Asha started life in misery. In 1933, she was born in a musical family. Her father passed on when she was nine. She and her elder sister, Lata Mangeshkar, joined films to sing in order to help the family.

Her first song was recorded in the Marathi movie Majha Bal when she was 10 years old. Most children were playing, but Asha was in the recording studios learning to be disciplined and to be in control.

To Find Her Own Way.

Asha has been having difficulties standing out. Her sister Lata was already a leading voice, often chosen for soft, traditional songs. The rest of the tracks, fast, complex, and unconventional, were normally allotted to Asha.

She did not stand up against this, but modified. She practiced her voice to sing the jazz-type of songs, practiced speed and breath control to dance numbers, and developed a style that was versatile and unique. Unless she was the first choice to sing one kind of song, she was the first choice to sing lots of other songs.

The World Record

Asha Bhosle was, in the long run, the most recorded artist in history. Guinness World Records recognized her for recording over 11,000 songs across 20 languages.

She sang with different genres:

Classical music

Pop and dance music.

Ghazals (poetic songs)

Devotional music

Staying Modern

Asha could never cease to adapt. She even worked with new composers like A. R. Rahman in her 60s and 70s, and even joined international artists like Gorillaz.

In her extracurricular activities, she opened a chain of restaurants named “Asha’s; in her interests, she loved to cook. She used to say that she would have been a chef had she not been a singer.

A Life in Music

Asha experienced significant transitions both in the first years of post-independent India and in the digital era of music. Nonetheless, her training remained basic: practice every day and get better and better.

Her family (son Anand and her grandchildren) survives her. When she goes away, she leaves her recordings. In her work, you can see that even though you are working in the shadow of another person, you still can create a legacy of your own.

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], April 15: Tips Music Ltd. has released “Noor,” a romantic track featuring singers Arslan Nizami and Duha Shah. The song has been composed and written by Arslan Nizami, with music direction by Hyder Dar. Directed by Ruman Hamdani, the video features Adveeka Bohray along with Arslan Nizami. The track is now available across all major streaming platforms.

“Noor” is a soft, emotional track that stays rooted in the idea of simple, honest love. The composition doesn’t try to do too much, and that works in its favour. Arslan’s writing keeps things direct, while the vocals, both his and Duha’s, carry the mood without feeling heavy. The overall sound, shaped by Hyder Dar, adds depth but doesn’t take attention away from the core melody.

The video follows a similar approach. It doesn’t overplay the narrative, instead letting the expressions and visuals do the work. There’s a certain restraint in the way it’s been shot, which aligns with the tone of the song.

Speaking about the track, Arslan Nizami said, “‘Noor’ came from a very personal space. Writing and composing it took time, and it stayed with me throughout. Duha’s voice added something the song needed—it felt complete after that. Working with Ruman on the video and sharing the screen with Adveeka was a good experience. I’m also thankful to Kumar sir and Tips Music for backing the song the way they did.”

Duha Shah shared, “I connected with ‘Noor’ the first time I heard it. There was something very simple and real about it. Recording didn’t feel like pressure; it just flowed. Being part of a Tips Music release is special for me, and I’m glad I got to work on something like this.”

Hyder Dar added, “The idea was to keep things minimal and not overbuild the sound. Arslan already had a clear direction, so it was more about supporting that. The sessions were smooth, and everything came together naturally. I’m grateful to Tips Music for bringing all of us on this project.”

“Noor” is now live across platforms and is expected to find its space among listeners who prefer easy, melody-driven tracks.

Bangalore (Karnataka) [India], April 15: KRAFTON India today announced the launch of a landmark new phase of redeem code drops for BATTLEGROUNDS MOBILE INDIA (BGMI) – and for the first time in the game’s history, players have a chance to unlock the legendary M416 Glacier, one of the most coveted weapon skins in the BGMI universe, through a redeem code. What was once attainable only through in-game purchases or limited events can now be won by players simply by being among the first to redeem an exclusive Glacier Spin Token code.

“The M416 Glacier has always been BGMI’s most aspirational item – the one every player wants, and few have ever held. Giving our community a genuine shot at winning it through a redeem code is something we’ve never done before, and it reflects how deeply we listen to what players want.

We want every BGMI player to feel that today could be the day they finally get the Glacier,” said Srinjoy Das, Director of Marketing and BGMI Product Management, KRAFTON India.

From Left to Right: Actor Producer – Gouraa Singhh, Director – Saagar Singhh & Actor Producer – Nabil Parka

New Delhi [India], April 10: Indian cinema is witnessing the rise of concept-driven storytelling, and Kakbhushundi stands at the forefront of this evolution. The upcoming film weaves cosmic mythology with a grounded human story, following Suryansh—a café worker unknowingly linked to forces beyond the physical world.

The narrative begins with subtle human emotion and quickly unfolds into a multi-layered mystery. A cold encounter with Bethany, an anonymous puppeteer operating in darkness, a whispering stranger, haunting flashbacks, and finally, Suryansh’s ascension through a golden beam into another realm. There he meets Kakbhushundi, a cosmic entity who reveals his destiny. Meanwhile, the emotional turmoil of Anand and Meghana in the real world adds urgency and depth to the storyline, promising a screenplay that balances spectacle with sentiment.

At the heart of this project is international filmmaker and director Saagar Singhh, whose journey from acting in Indian television to working on international projects shaped his cinematic outlook. His collaboration with Christopher Nolan during Tenet remains a defining chapter, teaching him precision, patience, and creative discipline. Saagar often contrasts the structured professionalism of UK productions with the chaotic hierarchy he experienced in India—fueling his determination to create films where talent is prioritized over ego.

Saagar Singhh’s recent selection as a jury member at the Persian Awards Film Festival in Toronto further underscores the international credibility surrounding the project. His mission is clear—to present Indian storytelling with global cinematic grammar.

Backing this vision is actor-producer Nabil Parkar, recognized for his dynamic presence in television and music entertainment formats. Nabil Parkar’s strategic move into film production is a definitive reflection of his commitment to original, intellectually challenging, and visually striking scripts, with his latest project, Kakbhushundi, serving as the pinnacle of this creative ambition.

By stepping into the dual roles of actor and producer, Parkar is treating this “passion project” as a vehicle and using his performance as an emotional bridge while utilizing his production platform to explore profound narratives of immortality and spiritual evolution.

Equally instrumental is actor-producer Gouraa Singhh, whose extensive acting background in shows like Balika Vadhu and Chakravartin Ashoka Samrat inspired her to create healthier work dynamics behind the scenes. For Gouraa, producing Kakbhushundi is not just about making a film, but about fostering equality between cast and crew—something she felt was often missing during her acting career.

The visual soul of the film lies in the hands of VFX maestro Junaid Ullah. Having contributed to cinematic spectacles such as Enthiran (Robot), Baahubali: The Beginning, Jailer, and Coolie, Junaid’s involvement ensures that the cosmic and mythological elements of Kakbhushundi will be brought alive with world-class visual effects.

Kakbhushundi is not merely a film announcement; it is the beginning of a new narrative space where mythology meets science fiction, emotion meets scale, and Indian creators step confidently onto the world stage.

New Delhi [India], April 09: In a noteworthy milestone for Indian cinema, the short film ‘Innovatio’ has proudly clinched the ‘Silver Award in the Super Short Film’ category at the prestigious Paris Film Awards (France). This accolade emphasises the film’s compelling narrative amid a highly competitive global landscape, particularly in a category that emphasises precision, brevity, and originality.

Director of Photography Darshan Venkat, with cinematography by Sriram and choreography by Ganesh, ‘Innovatio’ showcases the talents of a dedicated crew, including sound engineer Amresh and writer-director Sukanya Basu Mallik. Produced under the ‘Clips and Pages’ banner, the film features a talented ensemble cast, including Jeeva, Gokul, Srivatsan, Ganesh, Pavithra, and Nandhini, all of whom contribute to a cohesive cinematic experience. Editing, handled by Jeeva, along with Cassate Band Recordz and post-production by Sakthi D and SFX Echt Media Works and Studios, plays a crucial role in shaping the film’s pacing and storytelling—a key element in the super short format, where every frame carries significant narrative weight. The film’s makeup artists, Humairah and Priya, further enhance its visual appeal.

The success of ‘Innovatio’ is not confined to the international stage. The film has also been awarded the ‘Best Indian Short Film’ at the Tamizhagam International Film Festival in Chennai, echoing its positive reception among domestic audiences and critics alike. This dual recognition reflects the film’s ability to resonate across different cultural landscapes while maintaining a unique creative voice.

‘Innovatio’ is distinguished by its conceptual clarity and effective execution, exemplifying the growing trend of micro-cinema. Filmmakers are increasingly exploring compact storytelling formats without sacrificing thematic depth. Even in its brief duration, the film showcases an acute understanding of visual economy and emotional resonance—qualities essential to contemporary short filmmaking.

The project benefited from the support of Dhevi Illam and Chennai Podcast as venue partners, highlighting the collaborative ecosystem that fosters independent filmmaking in Chennai. Such partnerships play an instrumental role in providing platforms for emerging filmmakers to bring their visions to life and exhibit their work.

With its recognition at the Paris Film Awards, ‘Innovatio’ joins an expanding group of Indian short films receiving international attention, indicating a significant shift in global interest toward regional and independent cinema from India. This achievement not only marks a milestone for the creative team behind the film but also underscores the potential of super short films as a compelling storytelling medium in today’s rapidly evolving cinematic landscape.

Actor Srivatsan said he appreciated the film’s core idea—highlighting the sacrifices of soldiers’ families within a 5-minute format—and added that working with the team was enjoyable, especially playing a soldier.

Sukanya expresses, “Bringing together so many talented professionals and accomplishing this in a new state, where I’m unfamiliar with the language—along with this being my first time making a short film professionally—was genuinely challenging. However, now that it has received recognition for its value, I am truly pleased.” We extend our congratulations to her and her team and look forward to many more shorts and other projects under her direction.

Mission: Safer India, Better World.

Bhiwadi (Rajasthan) [India], March 27: TheSafetyMaster, a prominent safety consultancy, training, and technology solutions company, has declared the opening of its extensive Yearly Safety Handholding and Changeover Program. This program aims to assist industries in enhancing their safety systems, enhancing the workforce, and incrementally targeting the Zero Accident Goal.

The program launched by the Founder of TheSafetyMaster, Sanjeev Paruthi, resolves a significant gap observed in various industries, as organizations tend to emphasize compliance, but with regard to establishing system-driven but uniform safety performance. This venture will help transform that through providing formal, ongoing, and viable safety assistance on an annual round-the-clock basis.

Safety is seen by most companies as a checklist or audit process. That will not help in the long run, said Sanjeev Paruthi. Leadership involvement, behavior change, and safety needs systems. The aim of the program is to unite all three in an organized and quantifiable manner.

Continuous Improvement of Safety.

Contrary to conventional ways of running consultation founded on short-term contracts, TheSafetyMaster Annual Safety Handholding Program is established to create a long-term connection. It also makes sure organizations are not only putting systems in place to ensure safety, but they are also taking care of their maintenance, enhancing, and continually measuring it.

The program emphasizes preventive measures of risks instead of corrective action. It helps organizations to discover risks at the earliest level, execute preventive controls, and understand safety performance through organized systems and electronic devices.

This practice assists the companies in relinquishing control over audits to the establishment of internal safety capability and proprietorship.

Complete Protection on All keys Safety Compartments.

The program gives end-to-end support in all the major safety areas necessary in an industrial business:

Expert Services and Safety Handholding Annual.

Regular site visits, audit, review, and strategic input provide organizations with unending expert guidance. This keeps these safety systems up and running, up to date, and industry standards compliant.

Fire Audits and Fire Safety software.

One of the gravest sources of threat within the industrial setting is that of fire. The program also involves an elaborate assessment of the fire protection systems, checks on compliance, and suggestions on what they need to better their emergency preparedness and response capacity.

Electrical Safety Evaluation and Standards.

Electrical hazards are neglected until there is an electrical incident. The SentinelOfSafety performs consistent evaluations in order to find the risks, increase the efficiency of the system, and ensure adherence to the safety standards.

Process Safety Management (PSM).

Process Safety Management is critically required in the case of industries with hazardous operations. The program assists companies in establishing an organized risk identification, control mechanisms, and monitoring to mitigate large-scale incidents.

Implementation Design Safety Software Systems.

One of the key aspects of the program will be including digital safety tools. These are permit to work, incident management, Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment (HIRA), audit management, behaviour-based safety (BBS), and KPI dashboard.

The tools have assisted organizations in monitoring safety performance in real time, enhancing accountability, and making decisions based on actual data as opposed to making assumptions.

Inspiring the Real Safety Culture, not Only Policies.

Lack of consistent behavior on the ground is a bigger problem in industrial safety than the non-existence of rules. This is successfully tackled by TheSafetyMaster program in the form of organized Safety Culture Transformation programs.

It focuses on the leadership participation, engagement of employees, and constant reinforcement of safe practices. The program collaborates with the transformation of how individuals think and behave with respect to safety, rather than depending on policies and procedures.

Behaviour-Based Safety (BBS) Introduction.

Workplace incidents relate most to human behavior. The program involves a systematic Behaviour-Based Safety (BBS) model, which aims at being able to observe, provide feedback, and make corrections.

You can also prevent incidents by detecting unsafe behaviors and reinforcing safe behaviors, making organizations considerably less prone to risks and developing a more responsible and mindful workforce.

Training and Competency Development.

Training is not perceived as a single process but might be considered as a continuing process. Workers, sales representatives, and up to the top-level are educated about the risks, safe practices, and positive response to critical situations.

Hazop Training is one specific program are also promoted to enhance process safety capabilities. These programs provide teams with the updated skills in risk assessment and well-organized approaches to defining the possible hazards and preventing them before it turns into incidents.

Mission Zero accident Vision roadmap.

The prime focus of the initiative is to develop a unique Zero Accident Vision Roadmap within each organization. This roadmap has goals, dates, performance measurements, and plans of action necessary to attain zero incidents.

Organizations receive a step-by-step strategy, rather than some abstract goals, which makes its strategies more practical and responsive to organizational operations and the risk profile.

An Environmentally Focused and Implementation-Amazing Model.

The difference between TheSafetyMaster and other products is its pragmatic nature. The program is not constructed on generalized templates but is designed to reflect the industry, processes, and exposure of risk associated with an organization.

Organizations can expect:

• Reduction in incident rates
• Better compliance and audit preparedness.
• Stronger safety culture
• Better employee engagement
• Evidence-based safety making.

More to the point, they establish internal capacity to continue to improve the safety in the long run.

Invitation to Industry

TheSafetyMaster welcomes companies of all industries, such as manufacturing, construction, chemicals, energy, and infrastructure, to take part in this program.

Whether the company starts its safety way or wants to enhance the current safety systems, the Annual Safety Handholding Program is an ordered and definite way to the future.

TheSafetyMaster seeks to support the establishment of safer working environments and enhanced safety culture in industries in India with the vision of Safer India, Better World.

Thrillophilia, India’s trusted multi-day tour operator, uses AI to make tour execution more reliable and deliver personalised travel experiences at scale, serving 1M+ travellers (FY21–FY25).

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], March 27: Thrillophilia, India’s most trusted multi-day tour operator, has been awarded the ‘AI in Travel’ recognition at the Economic Times Entrepreneur Awards 2026, held in Mumbai. This award clearly highlights how well the company has been using artificial intelligence for its operations. This utilisation goes across the entire lifecycle of multi-day tours. It starts from when the itinerary gets created and checked for whether it’s feasible for the on-ground coordination and final delivery. And all of this is seamlessly implemented in what most consider one of the highest operationally complex travel categories, that is, multi-day tours, an approach that recently helped Thrillophilia earn the AI in Travel recognition at the ET Entrepreneur Awards 2026.

India’s Multi-Day Tour Operator of Choice

Founded in Bangalore and headquartered in Jaipur, Thrillophilia is a travel brand that focuses on building and delivering complex multi-day tours that span multiple destinations and require coordination across several logistics components. These itineraries often involve several logistical complications and depend on coordination between transport, stays, activities, and multiple on-ground partners.

The company operates across India as well as international destinations such as Europe, East Africa, and Southeast Asia. Its offerings range from private European itineraries to Kenya safari holidays. One can explore even the culturally immersive experiences with them, such as the Himalayan journeys.

Between FY2021 and FY2025, Thrillophilia has served more than 1 million travellers through its multi-day tour offerings. Through these services, the company operates at a revenue scale of ₹500 crore and above with EBITDA profitability, reflecting how consistently they deliver quality in an industry and segment as demanding as that of multi-day tour travel.

AI That Supports Execution, Not Just Planning

Thrillophilia’s approach to technology is simple yet very targeted. They centre it around a set of AI systems developed in-house. Further, each system is designed in a separate manner so that it addresses a specific challenge within this multi-day tour lifecycle.

• AI Itinerary Builder: Starting with this AI Itinerary Builder, the company creates personalised, day-by-day travel plans. A Feasibility Agent then comes into the picture to validate them. The route ordering, availability, seasonality, and timing are some of the factors well checked before the itinerary is shared with a traveller.
• Thrillo Voice AI: Thrillo Voice AI, manages initial customer interactions. It also deals with qualifying leads and directs them to the right travel advisor based on the already captured relevant context.
• CallMind: CallMind is known to record, interpret, and finally analyse customer conversations. This way it improves how the advisor delivers solutions, their performance and maintains quality consistency across teams.
• Trip Management System: The Trip Management System converts confirmed bookings into a structured execution pipeline. It is highly used majorly by the operations teams, who get real-time visibility into every element of each active tour.
• Lead Intelligence Engine: The Lead Intelligence Engine evaluates enquiries and routes them to see where and to whom an enquiry needs to be assigned. For instance, more complex or high-value trips are handled by experienced advisors.

These systems have a way of working as connected layers instead of merely acting as standalone tools. In practice, it means every stage of a trip, whether it’s planning, validation, booking or on-ground execution, is linked. So, the systems allow the team to get complete visibility. Eventually, this is what results in ensuring smoother coordination and more reliable delivery for travellers.

The Thinking Behind the Recognition

Speaking on the approach, the company stated a clear difference, which highlighted how it uses AI within travel operations:

“Most platforms are using AI to help travellers plan better. We are using it to help our teams execute better. In multi-day travel, planning is expected. Reliable execution is what truly matters,” said a spokesperson at Thrillophilia.

At Thrillophilia, the operating model is built in a way that defines the division of roles. For instance, AI systems handle intelligence-driven processes. These include the ones ranging from itinerary creation and checking how viable the trip is to lead scoring and operational monitoring. Human travel experts and on-ground coordinators are assigned to take responsibility for delivery.

Experts at Thrillophilia are accountable for each AI-generated outcome separately to get to the final output. Balancing the AI efficiency with human ownership in such a manner is what truly forms the core of the company’s approach. This denotes how they manage complex travel experiences so well.

Key Highlights

• More than 1 million travellers have been served for multi-day tours, within FY2021 and FY2025 
• ₹500 crore and above in revenue with EBITDA profitability
• Operations are found all across India, Europe, East Africa, Southeast Asia, and even further
• Fully in-house AI stack covering itinerary building, feasibility checks, voice AI, trip management, conversation intelligence, and lead routing
• Founded in Bangalore and headquartered in Jaipur
• Award received at the ET Entrepreneur Awards 2026 in Mumbai

About Thrillophilia

Thrillophilia is India’s most trusted multi-day tour operator, offering personalised packages that are delivered seamlessly by their on-ground destination experts. The company’s operations are widespread across India and international destinations. Having executed trips for 1 million+ travellers, they operate on a model built on a simple principle: AI handles the planning, while humans ensure the delivery.

Dr. Arvind Kumar, President, India Water Foundation

The current global order is facing various overlapping crises, which are collectively being described as the poly-crisis era. Given this situation, New Delhi finds itself at a very significant moment, more so after the wars in the Middle East and the ongoing Ukraine-Russia war, when the traditional international security mechanisms are gradually becoming obsolete. India, being a major power with its GDP rising to US$4.18 trillion, seems to be the centre of global politics; it should maintain a low profile and also do some courageous acts to preserve its strategic autonomy, besides ensuring the creation of a peaceful and stable internal environment, if it wants to be free of the geopolitical mess.

The Energy and Resource Frontier

India is confronted with one of the most difficult threats to its energy security because it depends on imports for more than 80 percent of its crude oil and natural gas needs. The blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, together with the interruption of the Middle Eastern supply chains, has rapidly contributed to the destabilization of the local markets. So, New Delhi has taken a move towards large-scale diversification. Despite India’s main source of energy being Gulf energy imports, the country’s crude oil imports from Russia increased from 2-3 percent of total imports in 2021 to 38-41 percent by 2024, indicating a twentyfold rise in the share of Russian crude imports within three years. One way of cutting the dependency on imported fossil fuels is by generating more renewable energy. At the beginning of 2026, India had 275 GW of power capacity from non-fossil sources, which gave it the ability to augment the non-fossil power capacity by 50 percent. Besides, India is forming strategic partnerships with Africa and Australia for liquefied natural gas and critical minerals, while at the same time, it is building up its strategic petroleum reserves.

Food Security and Internal Resilience

The agricultural sector currently operates its first simultaneous period of operational difficulties because its food prices depend on imported fertilisers. The transportation routes used to deliver these fertilisers face disruption because ocean shipping paths follow unpredictable patterns. The government promotes bio-fertilizers and precision agriculture as methods to enhance grain production. The two initiatives today hold special importance for India, which stands as the thirteenth most water-stressed country according to the Aqueduct index of the World Resources Institute. The domestic economy of the nation serves as the primary shield that protects the country from all forms of foreign economic interruptions. India retains its status as the world’s fastest-growing major economy with a development prediction of 7.4 percent. The government plans to create a fiscal defence system against imported inflation and external capital flow changes by reducing the fiscal deficit to 4.5 percent and implementing structural reforms through the second phase of the Goods and Services Tax (GST).

India’s current strategic tightrope in the ongoing global turmoil is illustrated in the following infographics, which are self-explanatory.

The Diplomatic Balancing Act

From a diplomatic point of view, India’s ‘multi-alignment’ strategy is being challenged by the increasing competition between the two superpowers. Washington has put a lot of pressure on India, even threatening to impose reciprocal tariffs and sanctions in connection with India’s purchase of Russian energy and defence equipment. Yet, New Delhi has not backed down and, in fact, changed the lens of its relations to focus on domestic developmental needs instead of ideological loyalties. Such a delicate balancing act is not only in the Middle East, where India has a ‘Special Strategic Partnership’ with Israel on one side, and at the same time, on the other side, it also signed long-term contracts with Iran for the Chabahar Port. This kind of flexibility gives India the ability to be a reliable interlocutor at fault lines in the different regions.

Sustainable Path Forward

India needs to stop watching from the sidelines because its survival depends on becoming an active peace promoter by protecting its economic growth from external disruptions by increasing its essential role in worldwide value chains and modernizing its domestic production sites. New Delhi views strategic autonomy as an essential survival strategy, which became necessary when the world began to fracture into multiple factions.

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], March 26: Kaushalya Logistics Limited (NSE: KLL), a diversified conglomerate specializing in logistic support to the cement industry, has commenced operations at a new Commercial Carrying and Forwarding Agent (CCFA) depot in Muzaffarpur (Bihar) for the Adani Group.

This addition marks the 22nd new depot established by the Company during FY26. The newly operational depot is expected to handle a monthly volume of approximately 15,000 MT, significantly enhancing the Company’s operational scale and throughput capacity in the region. With this expansion, the Company’s total depot network has increased to 124 depots across India.

The expansion reflects the Company’s continued efforts to strengthen its presence in high-growth markets while building stronger relationships with leading industry players. Bihar is emerging as a key region driven by increasing infrastructure and construction activity, and the addition of this depot is expected to improve distribution efficiency, enable faster turnaround times, and enhance overall service capabilities. With its strong on-ground experience, the Company is well prepared to meet the changing needs of its partners and continue growing steadily.

Commenting on this, Mr. Rajendra Singh Shekhawat, CEO, Kaushalya Logistics Limited said,

Lucknow (Uttar Pradesh) [India], March 26: Lucknow’s home construction ecosystem is undergoing a structural shift as buyers move away from fragmented sourcing toward integrated, experience-led solutions. The change comes amid rising demand for consistency in quality, pricing transparency, and design cohesion across the city’s expanding residential corridors.

For years, homebuilding in Lucknow has unfolded through a fragmented network of local markets, where homeowners sourced timber, granite, stones, and Indian marble, as well as imported or Italian marble, often in separate transactions across the city. The process typically involved multiple rounds of coordination, from procuring plywood from commonly available brands like Greenply, Austin Ply, and Tplus, to selecting laminates from Merino, Stylam, and GreenLam, alongside choosing tiles from manufacturers such as Somany, Simpolo, RAK, and Johnson, and sanitary ware from Jaquar and Artize.

Sector observers note that this dispersed procurement pattern, despite being the norm for years, has frequently resulted in uneven finishes, scheduling delays, and diffused accountability, particularly when multiple vendors are involved in a single project.

A more consolidated model is now emerging in the city. Among the players driving this shift is Goel World, an integrated experience center led by Sarvesh Goel, Chairman of Mansingh Goel Group, whose family has a 100-year legacy in the timber and building materials trade.

The facility brings together a wide spectrum of products and services under one roof, including modular interior solutions such as kitchens, wardrobes, and vanity units, along with finishing elements like wooden flooring by Lamiwood, blinds, carpets, and wallpapers. The approach is aimed at reducing the need for multiple sourcing points while enabling coordinated design outcomes.

Speaking on the limitations of digital-first selection, Goel said that material choices often appear different in real conditions compared to catalog images. He emphasized that physical interaction with products, including surface textures and functional performance, allows buyers to make more informed decisions.

The shift also aligns with changing consumer preferences in emerging residential zones such as Gomti Nagar Extension and Shaheed Path, where buyers are increasingly prioritizing integrated design over piecemeal construction. Full-height wardrobes, coordinated laminate finishes, and durable material combinations are gaining traction, reflecting a move toward long-term usability and visual uniformity.

Experts note that while demand for high-quality construction materials has grown alongside Lucknow’s urban expansion, the supply chain has remained largely unorganized. Integrated hubs are attempting to address this gap by offering verified products, standardized pricing, and end-to-end solutions.

Goel stated that scale plays a key role in pricing efficiency. By aggregating demand across categories such as timber, marble, tiles, plywood, laminates, and sanitary ware, the model enables stronger sourcing leverage with manufacturers, making quality materials accessible across different budget segments.

Industry stakeholders believe that such developments could position Lucknow as a regional center for design-led construction practices. As integrated formats gain traction, the city’s home-building process is expected to become more structured, transparent, and experience-driven.

The transition marks a departure from traditional procurement methods and signals a broader shift in how urban homeowners approach construction in tier-two cities.

Revisit the narrow lanes of Varanasi as the iconic Dhanush-Aanand L. Rai duo returns to redefine passion and romance

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], March 26: Sony MAX, India’s premier Hindi movie channel, proudly announces the World Television Premiere of Tere Ishk Mein, one of the most anticipated emotional spectacles of 2025. Twelve years after the cult classic Raanjhanaa redefined the landscape of romantic dramas in Indian cinema, the iconic duo of National Award‑winning actor Dhanush and master storyteller Aanand L. Rai reunite to bring audiences back to the mystical ghats and narrow lanes of Varanasi.

More than just a film, Tere Ishk Mein is being hailed as the spiritual successor to Raanjhanaa. While Raanjhanaa gave audiences the innocent persistence of Kundan, Tere Ishk Mein introduces Shankar—a darker, more volatile shadow of that unforgettable character. For millions of fans, seeing Dhanush return in a dhoti on the banks of the Ganges was a nostalgic masterstroke, capturing the essence of obsession, devotion, and the high price of love.

The film unites a powerhouse creative team that has redefined modern romantic storytelling. Dhanush delivers one of his most intense performances as Shankar, embodying restless passion, wounded pride, and the violence of love. Opposite him, Kriti Sanon offers a career‑best portrayal, grounding the film’s chaotic energy with nuance and depth. Aanand L. Rai’s vision captures the authentic pulse of small‑town India, while A. R. Rahman’s haunting score elevates the narrative with the spiritual echoes of Varanasi’s temples.

The World Television Premiere of Tere Ishk Mein reinforces Sony MAX’s promise of showcasing powerful narratives and unforgettable performances, ensuring that audiences everywhere can experience the grandeur of cinema right in their living rooms. With the channel’s massive nationwide audience, the premiere will reach millions of viewers—making this television event as momentous and far‑reaching as a big‑screen debut.

“As a director, for me the most important question before makiwith film is whether I truly have a reason to tell that story. With Tere Ishk Mein, the answer was an immediate yes. The film explores a deep, intense form of love, and in many ways, it is my most matured take on love so far. It’s a layered story, and whenever I find myself working with such emotional complexity, I instinctively turn to Dhanush. He was always my first choice for the character of Shankar because I knew this character needed an actor who could bring both vulnerability and strength to a demanding role.” Director Aanand L. Rai said.

With powerful performances, soulful music, and a story that explores the many shades of love, Tere Ishk Mein promises a compelling cinematic experience.

Don’t miss the World Television Premiere of Tere Ishk Mein on 27^th March at 8 pm only on Sony MAX

Chu Bao Que wins Best Film at Haryana Fest

New Delhi [India], March 26: The film “Vuon Tinh Yeu – Prem Ki Surdhara,” produced by the India Book of Records, won the Best International Film Award at the 8th Haryana International Film Festival, held at Kurukshetra University, Kurukshetra, on March 25, 2026. Honorary Doctor, Professor, record holder, and artist Chu Bao Que, who also serves as Chairman of the Policy and Development Consultative Council of the Vietnam Federation of UNESCO Associations (VFUA), received the prestigious award from Mahamandaleshwar Swami Shri Gyananand Ji Maharaj, spiritual guru, social worker, and the founder of Shri Krishna Kripa Seva Samiti and GIEO GITA (Global Inspiration & Enlightenment Organization – GITA).

Speaking at the event, Prof. Dr. Chu Bao Que shared that cinema is not only an artistic expression but also a powerful medium of cultural diplomacy. Through “Vuon Tinh Yeu – Prem Ki Surdhara,” he noted, the team aims to revive the deep-rooted cultural connections between Vietnam and India, built over thousands of years. He emphasised that the film conveys a message to the world that heritage remains alive when it is shared, preserved, and reimagined together. He further added that the journey is not only about honouring the past but also about inspiring future generations to take ownership of cultural heritage, highlighting that Vietnam and India, as two ancient civilisations, have a responsibility to lead this dialogue globally.

Recently, Prof. Dr. Chu Bao Que achieved another milestone in Japan as part of his mission to protect and promote cultural heritage across countries. Upon his return, he was honoured by the Government of Vietnam for this achievement, and a book on his work was also released.

The four-day film festival featured 80 internationally acclaimed films from multiple countries in different languages. It was attended by a diverse group of Indian and international filmmakers, artists, media professionals, and cinema enthusiasts. Vietnamese delegates played a significant role in the event, underscoring its global appeal. Notable attendees included Dr. Nguyen Hoang Anh (Julia), General Secretary of World Records Union (WorldKings) and Permanent Vice-Chairwoman of Vietnam Records Organization (VietKings); Mrs. Hoang Thu Hang, Head of the Culture Department, Sports and Culture Newspaper – Vietnam News Agency; Artist Chu Thuy Hang, Head of the UNESCO Vietnam Folk Arts Group; and Artist Nguyen Thu Trang, Deputy Head of the UNESCO Vietnam Folk Arts Group, among others.

The organiser Mr. Dharmender Dangi welcomed the Vietnamese delegates by organising a traditional Haryanvi dance performance. A vibrant Vietnamese dance presentation by Vietnamese and Indian students also paid tribute to Vietnam’s rich cultural heritage.

The film “Vuon Tinh Yeu – Prem Ki Surdhara” is part of the Indo-Vietnam Cultural Heritage Exchange Program. Under this initiative, “Guardian of Heritage,” authored by Dr. Biswaroop Roy Chowdhury, was also released by the India Book of Records in February 2025. The premiere of the film has been organised with the objective of promoting cultural exchange between the two nations – India and Vietnam – and reviving their historical cultural bond spanning thousands of years.

Dr. Biswaroop Roy Chowdhury, Chief Editor of the India Book of Records, graced the occasion and presented copies of the India Book of Records 2026 Edition to esteemed dignitaries, including Swami Shri Gyananand Ji Maharaj; Prof. Som Nath Sachdeva, Vice-Chancellor of Kurukshetra University; Justice Lalit Batra, Chairman of the Haryana Human Rights Commission; Mr. Walid Hasbi, Cultural Ambassador of Morocco; Prof. Chu Bao Que; Dr. Nguyen Hoang Anh (Julia); Mr. Dharmender Dangi; and other distinguished guests.

“Vuon Tinh Yeu – Prem Ki Surdhara” marks a significant milestone for its production team, as it makes its debut at international film festivals. Directed by Biswadeep Roy Chowdhury, with Vimal Mishra as Director of Photography, the film serves as a cultural bridge between India and Vietnam, celebrating their shared heritage through music, storytelling, and visual artistry.

The film adopts a symbolic storytelling approach, portraying shared spiritual and cultural values through music, imagery, and layered narratives, presenting a “garden of memory” where love connects deeply with heritage and identity. Prof. Dr. Chu Bao Que has pioneered a cross-national cultural cooperation model in which cinema and the arts serve as pillars of diplomacy, and his international work has contributed to building a global heritage network while strengthening Vietnam’s role in cultural diplomacy.

The film also raises an important question: how can heritage remain alive in modern society? Its answer lies in continuous reinterpretation – heritage thrives when it is retold and reimagined. The success of the film highlights cinema’s power to connect cultures and marks a significant milestone in India-Vietnam cultural collaboration.

New Delhi [India], March 25: As the urban footprint of the National Capital Region continues to expand, Sonipat is emerging as one of the region’s most promising development corridors. Amid this evolving landscape, RightLand Group is positioning itself as a planning-driven real estate development platform focused on organised land ecosystems across residential, commercial and industrial segments.

Under the leadership of Co-founder & CEO Mr. Bhavesh Aggarwal, a young entrepreneur and architect by professional qualification, RightLand reflects a modern approach for land development — one that emphasises on structured planning, long-term value creation and responsible urban growth. Coming from humble professional beginnings and extensive ground-level industry exposure, Bhavesh has built a reputation for combining technical expertise with entrepreneurial vision in the evolving real estate landscape of Delhi NCR.

For many years, Sonipat was largely perceived as an affordable extension of New Delhi. Buyers and investors were primarily attracted by lower land prices and geographical proximity to the capital. However, the city’s identity is now undergoing a substancial transformation.

Improved highway connectivity, expanding rail networks and the sharp rise of industrial zones are reshaping Sonipat into a more integrated economic hub within the NCR ecosystem. As industries expand and employment opportunities grow, demand for residential and commercial spaces also increases heavily.

Such growth, however, also brings the need for structured and disciplined development.

Unplanned expansion often leads to infrastructure stress, traffic congestion and unclear zoning between residential and industrial areas. Recognising these challenges, modern buyers and investors are increasingly prioritising organised land development that offers legal clarity, proper infrastructure and long-term usability.

It is within this context that RightLand is focusing on planning-led land development rather than fragmented land transactions. The company aims to create organised development zones where residential, commercial and industrial spaces coexist within a structured framework supported by future-ready infrastructure.

The philosophy behind this approach is simple — land should remain productive and valuable not just at the time of purchase, but for decades to come.

Sonipat’s growth trajectory is consistent and supported by reliable infrastructure and rising economic activities. Unlike already saturated urban centres, the city is holding the advantage of expansion in a structured and thoughtful manner.

As this transformation unfolds, the emergence of development consortium like RightLand reflects a broader shift in the region’s real estate panorama— one that prioritises planning, sustainability and long-term vision over short-term expansion.

The future of Sonipat will not be defined only by how fast it grows, but by how well that growth is planned.

Lucknow (Uttar Pradesh) [India], March 25: Chandan Healthcare Limited (NSE – CHANDAN), – One of the leading diagnostic and healthcare service providers in North India, is pleased to announce that it has secured a tender for the installation and operation of a 1.5 Tesla MRI system at Civil Hospital, Rohtak, Haryana.

This development strengthens the Company’s presence in the government healthcare diagnostics segment and reflects its continued focus on long-term, high-value diagnostic infrastructure projects under public-private partnership (PPP) models.

The project will be executed under a long-term contract of 10 years, providing strong revenue visibility and operational stability. Civil Hospital, Rohtak, is a 200-bedded government hospital currently undergoing expansion and infrastructure enhancement, catering to a large and growing patient base. The hospital records an OPD footfall of over 40,000 patients per month, indicating significant demand for advanced diagnostic services.

Strategically located in Rohtak, a prominent healthcare hub, the hospital also benefits from patient inflow spillover from PGIMS, a major tertiary care institution with over 1,500 beds and substantial patient volumes. The facility serves a wide catchment area, including Rohtak, Jhajjar, Sonipat, Bhiwani, and surrounding rural regions, ensuring consistent utilization of diagnostic services.

The case mix at the hospital spans across key specialities such as neurology, spine, trauma, and orthopaedics, supporting high MRI scan volumes and optimal asset utilization. The project is part of the government’s broader initiative to expand diagnostic infrastructure through PPP models, offering a stable and scalable opportunity for the Company.

This addition further strengthens Chandan Healthcare’s integrated diagnostic network and aligns with its strategy to expand across high-demand regions while enhancing accessibility to advanced diagnostic services.

Commenting on the development, Mr. Amar Singh, Promoter and Managing Director of Chandan Healthcare Limited, said, “We are pleased to secure this long-term MRI project in Haryana. This aligns with our strategy to expand our presence in high-demand government healthcare segments while building a scalable and integrated diagnostic network. We remain focused on enhancing accessibility, strengthening our radiology capabilities, and delivering high-quality diagnostic services across regions.”

Ravichandran Ashwin joins VRX — and suddenly, the smartest move on the board isn’t a delivery. It’s an address.

Chennai (Tamil Nadu) [India], March 25: There are cricketers who play the game. And then there are those who rewrite it — with a mind that refuses to stop thinking. Ravichandran Ashwin is the latter. His partnership with VRX feels less like an endorsement and more like an inevitability.

“I love strategic planning on and off the field. VRX builds smart, growth-centred avenues — which is exactly why I am proud to recommend them.”

— R. Ashwin, VRX Brand Ambassador

Two Playbooks. One Philosophy.

What makes Ashwin extraordinary is not what he does with a cricket ball — it’s what he does before he bowls it. He studies, anticipates, and executes under unforgiving pressure. Over 15+ years, he became India’s most cerebral cricketer — a mind his opponents consistently described as the hardest to read.

VRX was built on the same architecture of thought. Never chasing quick wins, it has spent years identifying high-growth locations and building communities to last — 986 homes delivered, 3,119 in active development, 1,404 completing this year. Not just numbers born of luck. The result of deliberate, long-view strategy.

When two forces that operate this way find each other, the result isn’t just a partnership. It’s a statement.

The Off-Field Move That Speaks Volumes.

Ashwin has never made decisions carelessly. Research first, emotion second, long-term value always. Buying a home, he believes, demands the same foresight as a Test match — reading the conditions and choosing a partner whose track record speaks for itself.

VRX, with its presence in high-connectivity corridors and commitment to community-first development, earned exactly that trust. For India’s homebuyers watching this unfold, Ashwin’s recommendation carries a specific weight: this is a man who wins by being right before the situation demands it.

Built for Those Who Think Ahead.

Today’s homebuyer wants more than four walls — they want lifestyle, connectivity, and a development that grows in value as intelligently as they’ve planned their own futures. VRX designs every project with this buyer in mind, consistently choosing long-term relevance over short-term appeal.

Ashwin — a masterclass in evolving without losing identity — is the embodiment of that buyer. His association with VRX is not celebrity optics. It is the alignment of two institutions that believe the most powerful outcomes are the ones you engineer.

Strategy builds careers. Vision builds legacies. VRX builds both.

With Ashwin as its brand ambassador, VRX sends a clear signal to India: the most credible endorsement is not the loudest one. It is the one made by someone who has spent a lifetime proving that preparation and vision always outlast the opposition.

The wickets and the homes may be different in form. But in principle, they are built the same way: one carefully calculated move at a time.

ABOUT VRX

VRX is a real estate developer committed to building thoughtfully planned, high-quality residential communities in high-growth corridors across India. With 986 homes delivered, 3,119 in active development, and 1,404 homes delivering this year, VRX continues to set the benchmark for strategic, community-centric development.

With his credibility, we are confident this association will strengthen our brand and accelerate adoption of our sustainable solutions across India and globally. He added, “Our growth is anchored in strong leadership, supported by Mr. Sundeep Gupta, Vice Chairman, and Mr. Bikesh Ogra, Vice Chairman & Global CEO, Jakson Green, along with the next generation driving the Group forward.”

I am excited to associate with a brand contributing meaningfully to India’s energy transition and a greener future.”

This initiative further reinforces JAKSON’s unique integrated business model, spanning manufacturing, project development, EPC, and O&M services. In line with its growth strategy, the company is also advancing its focus on people and technology for long-term sustainability.

New Delhi [India], March 23: As the creator economy matures, one of its least discussed challenges is operational overload. Influencers today are not just content producers; they are community managers, sales responders, negotiators, and customer support representatives, often all at once.

For mid-to-large creators, direct messages can easily cross several hundred per day. These include follower queries, collaboration requests, repetitive FAQs, and brand inquiries. Sorting, prioritizing, and responding manually consumes hours that could otherwise be invested in content strategy, production, and audience growth.

This is the gap that Creator Tag’s Swift Reply feature addresses.

Swift Reply is designed to streamline direct communication by enabling creators to respond faster, organize inquiries efficiently, and reduce repetitive manual engagement. Instead of spending significant time drafting similar responses repeatedly, creators can structure their communication flow ensuring timely replies without compromising personalization. The impact extends beyond convenience.

In an ecosystem where consistency determines growth, time becomes a strategic asset. When creators spend less time managing messages, they can focus on:

• Producing higher-quality content
• Exploring new formats
• Engaging meaningfully with their audience
• Negotiating partnerships more effectively

Swift Reply positions itself not as an automation gimmick, but as a workflow optimization layer within the creator economy. It acknowledges a simple truth: as audiences scale, manual communication becomes unsustainable.

By reducing administrative load, Creator Tag enables influencers to operate more like structured digital businesses rather than overwhelmed individuals managing high-volume conversations.

As monetization avenues expand – brand deals, affiliate partnerships, subscriptions and the ability to respond efficiently is no longer optional. It has become foundational.

Swift Reply shifts creators back to where their value truly lies; creating.

Pune (Maharashtra) [India], March 24: Actor Shruti Marathe, known for her work across Marathi, Tamil, and Hindi cinema, today unveiled the show flat of Codename Tree Clouds, a luxurious residential development planned within the 200+ acres SP Kingstown township, located at Hadapsar Annexe along the Pune–Solapur Highway.

The unveiling marked a key moment for the project, offering an early glimpse into its design approach and planned living experience. The event saw the presence of senior leadership from Shapoorji Pallonji Real Estate, along with selected invitees, who were taken through the show flat to understand the design intent, layout planning, and overall vision for the development.

Part of a larger 200-acre integrated township, Codename Tree Clouds is being conceptualised with a nature-first approach, combining climate-responsive architecture with expansive green spaces and low-density planning. The proposed development will feature 3 and 4 bed residences, with over 75% planned open spaces aimed at enhancing natural light, ventilation, and overall well-being.

Ms Rima Kirtikar, Chief Marketing Officer of Shapoorji Pallonji Real Estate said, “SP Kingstown is envisioned as an integrated township that brings together infrastructure, open spaces, and future-ready planning. Shruti Marathe’s presence brings a certain relatability and warmth to the occasion, reflecting the evolving aspirations of today’s homebuyers who value not just quality living spaces, but also a deeper sense of connection and lifestyle. This interaction helps bring our vision to life in a more tangible and engaging way.”

Strategically located near key hubs such as SP Infocity and Magarpatta, and in proximity to upcoming metro connectivity, the development is expected to offer strong accessibility while maintaining a calm, nature-led environment. The development is expected to further strengthen Hadapsar Annexe’s position as a growing residential micro-market in East Pune.

New Delhi [India], March 18: In a surprising turn of digital popularity, “HBD Prathik Jain Tumkur March 19” has surged to the 2nd position on IMDb’s India Spotlight trending list, capturing nationwide attention and outperforming several high-profile entertainment titles.

The birthday trend celebrating Dr. Prathik Jain has gained remarkable traction, standing just behind Dhurandhar The Revenge, which currently holds the top spot. The trend has even outperformed other anticipated releases, reflecting the growing influence of personalities beyond traditional cinema.

According to IMDb’s real-time popularity metrics, the birthday entry recorded a significant engagement share, highlighting how audiences are actively interacting with celebratory and personality-driven content—not just films and shows.

Industry observers note that this kind of trend signals a shift in digital culture, where entrepreneurs, creators, and public figures can command attention comparable to mainstream movie releases. Dr. Prathik Jain, known for his entrepreneurial ventures, creative projects, and strong media presence, has built a following that translates into measurable online momentum.

What makes this achievement particularly notable is that the birthday trend is competing directly with professionally marketed film campaigns. While Dhurandhar The Revenge continues to dominate at No.1, the close competition from a personal celebratory trend underlines the power of digital communities and branding.

As March 19 approaches, the buzz around Prathik Jain’s birthday is expected to grow further, potentially challenging for the top position. This milestone reinforces how modern popularity is no longer confined to cinema alone—but extends to influential personalities shaping conversations across platforms.

Under the leadership of Vivek Chhibber, the company has positioned itself as a trusted partner for residential and commercial property investments across Greater Noida, Noida, and the Yamuna Expressway corridor.

The Vision Behind Jaguar Realty

The foundation of Jaguar Realty is rooted in a simple but powerful idea: real estate consulting should be transparent, informed, and tailored to each client’s objectives. According to founder Vivek Chhibber, every investor or buyer enters the market with unique expectations, risk tolerance, and financial goals. A one-size-fits-all approach rarely works in real estate, especially in rapidly growing regions like NCR.

Recognizing this gap, Jaguar Realty was established to function as a boutique advisory firm where personalized attention and market intelligence go hand in hand. Today, Jaguar Realty works closely with investors, end-users, and corporate clients seeking opportunities in both residential and commercial property markets.

Who is Vivek Chhibber ? The Entrepreneur Behind Jaguar Realty

Vivek Chhibber is a real estate entrepreneur and strategic advisor with over 15 years of experience in the Delhi NCR property market. Known for his expertise in residential and commercial real estate advisory, Vivek Chhibber has built a strong reputation for delivering data-driven insights and long-term investment strategies.

The growth of Jaguar Realty is closely tied to the professional journey of Vivek Chhibber. Before founding Jaguar Realty, Vivek Chhibber co-founded Primo Realty Pvt. Ltd. in 2011, where he developed strong relationships with leading developers and gained deep experience in property investment, project evaluation, and client advisory.

Through years of working with investors, homebuyers, and developers, Vivek Chhibber identified a major gap in the market, lack of transparent and structured real estate advisory. This insight led to the creation of Jaguar Realty, a boutique consultancy focused on clarity, strategy, and client-first execution.

Today, Vivek Chhibber leads Jaguar Realty with a focus on transparency, market intelligence, and long-term client relationships, making him a trusted real estate expert in Noida, Greater Noida, and the Delhi NCR region.

Founder Message from Vivek Chhibber

Speaking about the philosophy behind the company, Vivek Chhibber shares: “Real estate is one of the most significant financial decisions people make in their lives. At Jaguar Realty, our responsibility is not just to facilitate transactions but to provide strategic guidance that helps clients make confident investment decisions. Our approach is built on transparency, responsiveness, and long-term partnerships.”

This commitment to responsible advisory has helped Jaguar Realty earn the trust of clients seeking dependable guidance in a complex real estate environment.

Why Investors Are Choosing Jaguar Realty

One of the key reasons investors prefer Jaguar Realty is the firm’s ability to interpret market trends and infrastructure developments. With extensive experience in the NCR region, Vivek Chhibber and his team at Jaguar Realty closely track policy reforms, urban expansion, and infrastructure projects that influence property values.

Regions such as Greater Noida, Noida, and the Yamuna Expressway corridor have seen significant transformation in recent years. Major developments including improved highway connectivity, metro expansion, and the upcoming Noida International Airport near Jewar are expected to reshape the region’s economic landscape.

By studying these developments carefully, Jaguar Realty helps clients identify locations with strong long-term investment potential.

Managing Real Estate Challenges for Clients

The property market can be challenging for buyers and investors, particularly when it comes to evaluating projects, navigating regulatory frameworks, and identifying trustworthy developers.

Under the leadership of Vivek Chhibber, Jaguar Realty focuses on addressing these challenges through a structured advisory approach. The firm conducts detailed project analysis, verifies developer credibility, and assesses market demand before recommending opportunities to clients.

Jaguar Realty also helps clients understand financial planning aspects of real estate investments, ensuring that property decisions align with broader investment goals. This level of strategic guidance distinguishes Jaguar Realty from conventional brokerage models.

According to Vivek Chhibber, the goal of Jaguar Realty is not simply to complete transactions but to help clients build sustainable real estate portfolios.

Opportunities in the Greater Noida and Yamuna Expressway Corridor

The NCR real estate market is undergoing rapid transformation, particularly in the Greater Noida and Yamuna Expressway regions. With the development of major infrastructure projects and increasing corporate presence, these areas are becoming attractive destinations for both residential buyers and commercial investors.

Jaguar Realty, guided by the expertise of Vivek Chhibber, actively monitors these developments and helps clients evaluate emerging investment opportunities.

For instance, the upcoming Noida International Airport at Jewar is expected to significantly boost economic activity and real estate demand in the surrounding regions. Infrastructure improvements and industrial expansion are also contributing to increased interest from investors.

By providing insights into these trends, Jaguar Realty ensures that clients remain well informed about the evolving property market.

Building Long-Term Client Relationships

A defining characteristic of Jaguar Realty is its focus on long-term relationships rather than short-term transactions. Vivek Chhibber believes that trust and credibility are the most valuable assets in the real estate industry.

Clients who work with Jaguar Realty benefit from continuous support, market updates, and investment guidance even after completing a property purchase. This ongoing engagement has helped Jaguar Realty establish a loyal client base across NCR.

As Vivek Chhibber emphasizes, the company’s success is closely linked to the success of its clients. This philosophy drives the team at Jaguar Realty to maintain high standards of professionalism and transparency in every interaction.

The Future of Jaguar Realty

Looking ahead, Jaguar Realty aims to expand its role as a strategic real estate advisory platform while maintaining its boutique approach to client service.

Founder Vivek Chhibber envisions Jaguar Realty continuing to grow alongside the evolving NCR real estate ecosystem. By combining technology, market intelligence, and personalized consulting, the company seeks to empower investors and homebuyers with the information they need to make confident decisions.

With its strong foundation, experienced leadership, and commitment to client success, Jaguar Realty is poised to remain a trusted name in real estate advisory.

As the market continues to evolve, Vivek Chhibber and Jaguar Realty remain focused on helping clients navigate opportunities and challenges with clarity, strategy, and confidence.

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], March 17:  Celebrating a rare milestone in contemporary cinema, Kumar Raj Productions hosted a special celebration on the evening of 14th March at a posh venue in Bandra, Mumbai, as the film Ameena, starring Rekha Rana, completed a remarkable 100-week run in theatres.

In an era when most films have increasingly shorter theatrical runs due to the dominance of digital platforms, Ameena’s uninterrupted 100-week presence in cinemas stands out as an extraordinary achievement. The historic success of the film has also gained international recognition and was featured in the March issue of Time Magazine.

Produced and directed by Kumar Raj, the film is inspired by the acclaimed stage play Yahaan Ameena Bikti Hai by award-winning playwright Aftab Hasnain. The story, screenplay and dialogues were developed by Dr. Prof. Kishan Pawar in collaboration with Hasnain, successfully translating the intensity of theatre into a compelling cinematic narrative.

The film is anchored by a powerful and nuanced performance from lead actress Rekha Rana, whose portrayal balances vulnerability with strength. Rekha Rana gained international recognition for her role in Tara – The Journey of Love and Passion, also produced and directed by Kumar Raj. At the height of her acting career, she chose a deeply spiritual path and stepped away from mainstream cinema to dedicate her life to faith as one of Jehovah’s Witnesses. She now focuses on Bible-based ministry and teachings at their international headquarters in New York City, adding a distinctive dimension to her artistic journey.

The film is further enhanced by advanced 7.1 Dolby Atmos sound, creating an immersive cinematic experience. The ensemble cast includes Utkarsh Kohli, Lata Haya, Kamal Adib, Sharad Sharma, Shankar Iyer, Samidha Kiran, Manu Malkani, Shreechand Makhija, Shivraj Vora, Kishan Kumar Pawar, Jack James, Chandrashekhar Kurane, Prashant Jaiswal, Kadir Hussain, Kaushal Meshram, Sushil Raman, Aarti Vazirani, Meena Valeja, Deepali, Deepali Mishra, Diya Chawla, Vinod Yadav, Ranjeet Jaiswal, Pitu Narang and Harish Chandiramani.

A visually engaging dance sequence choreographed and performed by Gaysil Naubert adds an artistic highlight to the film.

The project reflects the collaborative effort of a dedicated creative team including Co-Producer Dhram Jaiswal, Line Producer Vinod Yadav, Associate Directors Ajay Mishra and Ranjeet Jaiswal, Creative Directors Rohit and Harsha, Fashion Designers Rahul and Anushka, and editors Chandrashekhar Prajapati, Ajay Verma, Himadri Sekhar Bhattacharya and Bhupendra Singh.

Before Ameena, Kumar Raj’s feature film Tara – The Journey of Love & Passion achieved remarkable international recognition, receiving 590 international awards and being featured in 35 World Book of Records worldwide. The film was also selected from West Africa for consideration in the Academy Awards category for Best Foreign Language Film.

Kumar Raj, known internationally in maritime circles as Capt. Raj, spent many years navigating the world’s oceans as a Captain in the Merchant Navy before transitioning into filmmaking. He has also pursued advanced management education at Harvard University, the University of Cambridge and the Indian Institute of Management Ahmedabad, and further studied filmmaking and direction at Digital Academy – The Film School and film production at ZIMA.

On the occasion of this milestone, Kumar Raj Productions also announced its upcoming feature film “Jeevan Ka Kuan (जीवन का कुआँ) – The Well of Life.” The film will feature Gaurav in the lead alongside Samidha Kiran, with production set to begin soon.

Kumar Raj also expressed sincere gratitude for the constant encouragement and support of his wife Sonam, along with Rohit, Harsha, Meena Valeja, Aarti Vazirani, Sunil Vazirani, Mahesh Valeja and Mala Vazirani, whose support has been invaluable throughout this journey.

The collaboration brings the legacy of Pablo Picasso into the region’s luxury, lifestyle, and creative industries through a structured art licensing platform.

Dubai [UAE], March 17: Maison Élan, a joint venture between AVS and UAE-based entrepreneurs Purva Kumar Pethani and Hem Sevak, has announced an exclusive collaboration with the Picasso Trust, granting Maison Élan the sole rights within the United Arab Emirates to license selected works of Pablo Picasso.

The collaboration includes a curated portfolio of over 200 Picasso artworks and authorises Maison Élan to develop licensing partnerships across carefully defined premium sectors including real estate, banking, fine jewellery, haute horology, automobiles, fashion, hospitality, lifestyle products, experiential spaces, and limited-edition collectibles. All licensed applications will operate under strict curatorial, brand, and legacy frameworks established by the Picasso Trust.

Maison Élan has been established as a luxury art and brand licensing platform designed to manage high-value cultural intellectual property while enabling thoughtful collaborations with premium brands and institutions across the UAE.

The initiative is backed by AVS, the Dubai and Mumbai based arts and entertainment company founded by media entrepreneur Abishek S Vyas, which operates across film production, content driven intellectual property and art licensing.

With over 16 years of experience across companies including Viacom18, Disney, Eros International, Zee Entertainment and Netflix, Vyas brings a strong understanding of how global creative ecosystems operate across entertainment, culture, and commerce.

For AVS, the collaboration represents a natural extension of its larger vision to connect storytelling, cultural assets, and global intellectual property with contemporary audiences.

Abishek S Vyas, Founder and CEO, AVS, said: “Great art has always influenced storytelling, cinema, design, and popular culture. Through Maison Élan, we are creating a platform where iconic artistic legacies like Picasso can engage with today’s creative and luxury ecosystems in a meaningful way. As AVS continues to build across film, content IP, and cultural collaborations, this partnership reflects our broader vision of bringing together art, entertainment, and global brand storytelling.”

Koji Nakamura, Owner of the global licensing company representing Picasso rights, said: “The UAE represents one of the most dynamic luxury and cultural markets globally. We are pleased to collaborate with Maison Élan as our exclusive licensing partner in the region. Their structured approach, regional understanding, and longterm vision ensure that the Picasso legacy will be represented with integrity and thoughtful stewardship across carefully selected partnerships.”

Purva Kumar Pethani, Co-ounder of Maison Élan, added: “The UAE has emerged as a global centre for art, luxury, and cultural innovation. Maison Élan has been created to bridge iconic global art legacies with discerning regional partners who value heritage, craftsmanship, and authenticity.”

Hem Sevak, Co-Founder of Maison Élan, said: “Our focus is on building meaningful, carefully curated partnerships that honour the artistic legacy while enabling contemporary interpretation across premium sectors.”

While global art licensing collaborations have taken place in several international markets, this marks the first time a structured Picasso licensing mandate is being introduced in the UAE, with Maison Élan serving as the exclusive platform managing these partnerships.

With operations anchored in Dubai and Mumbai, AVS continues to expand its footprint across films, art licensing, and cultural intellectual property, building a platform that sits at the intersection of entertainment, art, and global creative industries across India and the Middle East.

Collaboration to feature in BGMI 4.3 update, starting 21st March with exclusive Chennai Super Kings collectables

Bengaluru (Karnataka) [India], March 17: KRAFTON India today announced a landmark collaboration between BATTLEGROUNDS MOBILE INDIA (BGMI) and Chennai Super Kings as part of the upcoming BGMI 4.3 update, bringing one of the league’s most iconic teams directly into the game as part of the upcoming BGMI 4.3 update, going live on 21 March. The collaboration introduces exclusive Chennai Super Kings -themed gameplay content, collectables, and a mechanic that has never been seen in BGMI before.

What Players Get

• The update brings two exclusive Chennai Super Kings-branded items into the game: the Thala Legacy Set (outfit) and the Thala Monster Truck (vehicle skin), letting players carry the spirit of the franchise into every match.

• A First for BGMI: The centrepiece of the collaboration is the introduction of dedicated Chennai Super Kings Photo Booth Points of Interest (POIs) across Erangel and Livik – marking the first time Photo Booth POIs have appeared in BGMI. At these locations, players can step into the battleground alongside Chennai Super Kings players and capture in-game moments, creating a fan experience that goes well beyond a standard cosmetics drop.

Talking about the partnership, Seddharth Merrotra, Head of Business Development and Partnerships, KRAFTON India, said: “Chennai Super Kings has one of the most devoted fan bases in world cricket, and BGMI has one of the most engaged gaming communities in India. Bringing them together had to feel meaningful for both – not just as a visual crossover, but as a genuine expression of that shared passion. We wanted fans to represent their team identity from inside the game, not just on the surface of it. The Photo Booth POIs are the fullest expression of that intent – something BGMI players have simply never experienced before inside the battleground.”

KS Viswanathan,Managing Director, Chennai Super Kings, added: “Chennai Super Kings has always shared an extraordinary connection with its fans. Bringing that connection into BGMI allows supporters to celebrate their team in a completely new format where the excitement of cricket meets the thrill of competitive gameplay.”

Launching right before 2026 season, the Chennai Super Kings integration is designed to position BGMI as a parallel fan engagement platform for India’s mobile-first generation – one where cricket fandom doesn’t end at the stadium or the television screen, but continues inside the battleground itself. With cricket deeply embedded in the country’s cultural fabric and gaming continuing to grow as a mainstream digital pastime, the partnership creates a new way for fans to express their team loyalty inside the BGMI battlegrounds.

The collaboration also reflects BGMI’s growing role as a platform where gaming culture intersects with sports fandom, creating new formats for participation and engagement for India’s digital-first audiences.

Kolkata (West Bengal) [India], March 17: In a significant milestone for cardiac care in eastern India, Peerless Hospital has successfully performed its first Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR) procedure. The advanced minimally invasive heart procedure was carried out by senior interventional cardiologist Dr. Uttam Kumar Saha on an elderly woman suffering from severe aortic valve disease.

The patient had been experiencing symptoms related to severe aortic stenosis, a condition in which the aortic valve becomes narrowed, restricting blood flow from the heart to the rest of the body. Considering her advanced age and surgical risk, the heart team decided to perform TAVR, a modern alternative to conventional open-heart surgery.

The procedure was performed successfully, and the patient recovered well. She has since been discharged from the hospital and is reported to be doing fine.

A Less Invasive Option for High-Risk Patients

Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR) allows doctors to replace a diseased aortic valve without opening the chest. A catheter is inserted through a blood vessel—usually in the groin—and guided to the heart, where a new valve is implanted inside the damaged valve.

This technique is particularly beneficial for elderly patients or those with other medical conditions who may not tolerate major surgery.

Speaking about the milestone, Dr. Uttam Kumar Saha said, “TAVR is a transformative procedure for patients with severe aortic stenosis, especially elderly individuals who may not be suitable candidates for open-heart surgery. With this technology, we can replace the diseased valve through a minimally invasive approach, allowing faster recovery and significantly improving quality of life.”

Expanding Advanced Cardiac Care in Kolkata

The successful introduction of TAVR at Peerless Hospital marks an important step in bringing cutting-edge cardiac interventions to patients in the region. Cardiologists believe the availability of this technology will benefit many patients who previously had limited treatment options.

Doctors note that untreated severe aortic stenosis can lead to serious complications, including heart failure and sudden cardiac death. With advanced procedures like TAVR now available locally, more patients can receive timely and life-saving treatment.

The successful case represents a promising beginning for this sophisticated cardiac procedure at the hospital, opening new possibilities for the treatment of complex heart valve disease in eastern India.

Pune (Maharashtra) [India], March 16: Patil Automation Limited (NSE: PATILAUTOM | INE17GV01016), a leading provider of turnkey welding, assembly, and robotics-integrated automation systems, announced that its Board of Directors, in a meeting held on March 13, 2026, has approved the formation of PAL Green Energy*, a proposed new subsidiary focused on delivering automation-driven solutions for the rapidly growing renewable energy industry, particularly within the solar infrastructure ecosystem.

Through this subsidiary, PAL aims to focus on the development and manufacturing of automated solar tracker systems, indexers, and other structural components used in solar and renewable power installations.

Ahmedabad (Gujarat) [India], March 16: Cities that host global sporting events are often assessed by the scale of their infrastructure. New stadiums, transport corridors and public spaces tend to dominate the narrative. However, international experience suggests that the true measure of success lies in what remains once the final ceremony ends.

For Ahmedabad, the host city of the 2030 Commonwealth Games, and the ambitions to host the 2036 Summer Olympics, are a defining moment. However, the conversation must move beyond physical assets alone. These events represent a pivotal moment for the city’s local event and services ecosystem, which will be required to operate at an unprecedented scale.

Studies on mega-event economics repeatedly highlight a common challenge. When local supply chains are unprepared, sudden surge in demand leads to centralisation, cost inflation and the displacement of smaller vendors. Large external operators move in, local players struggle to compete, and informal systems collapse under pressure. Without early planning, the economic benefits of hosting such events risk bypassing the very people meant to gain from them.

Mega events place intense and simultaneous demand across multiple sectors, including event fabrication, logistics, equipment rentals, manpower, security, hospitality and technology. When sourcing and procurement systems are fragmented, coordination gives way to confusion. International examples offer lessons. Ahead of the Tokyo Olympics, organisers invested years in building structured vendor databases, verification mechanisms and training programmes. Local suppliers were integrated into the supply chain well in advance, improving readiness and visibility. The result was smoother execution and long-term capacity building.

For Ahmedabad, preparedness must extend beyond venues and transport networks. It requires the creation of transparent platforms, clear procurement frameworks and policies that allow local enterprises to meet global benchmarks. Organised access to opportunities will be critical if local talent is to participate meaningfully rather than be sidelined.

Mega events magnify both strengths and weaknesses. They can expose inefficiencies just as easily as they can highlight capability. The difference lies in whether planning focuses only on delivery or also on legacy. A prepared ecosystem can support skills development, formalisation of services and sustained growth long after the event concludes.

Ahmedabad stands at an inflection point. Hosting a global sporting event is not just a logistical challenge, but a systems challenge. What the city chooses to build now will determine whether these events leave behind temporary spectacle or lasting value.

New Delhi [India], March 14: Manufacturing vs agriculture growth in India is suddenly the story nobody in policymaking circles can ignore. Factories are humming at record levels while farm growth has slowed enough to raise eyebrows.

Manufacturing vs Agriculture Growth India

Manufacturing vs agriculture growth India is turning into one of those economic contrasts that makes policymakers pause for a second. Maybe two.

Look at the data. Factories are pushing ahead at impressive speed. Agricultural growth, meanwhile, has slowed enough to raise some uncomfortable questions.

And honestly, this kind of imbalance wasn’t supposed to be this obvious.

Manufacturing sentiment has reached record highs. Production lines are active. Companies are expanding output. Hiring intentions are rising.

But agriculture, despite producing massive quantities of food, is seeing weaker growth.

Which is… interesting. Slightly ironic too.

India feeds itself just fine. Yet the farm economy isn’t expanding nearly as fast as the industrial one.

Factories Are Running at Full Speed

Let’s start with the good news. And there’s quite a bit of it.

The Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce & Industry manufacturing survey shows something pretty striking. The FICCI Manufacturing Index hit an all-time high in the third quarter of FY26, covering October to December 2025.

That doesn’t happen casually.

A massive 91 percent of manufacturers reported either higher or stable production levels. Think about that for a second. Nine out of ten companies are basically saying, yeah, business is good or at least steady.

Capacity utilization across major industries is sitting at around 75 percent.

Which, if you’ve followed industrial cycles before, is a strong number. Factories don’t operate near that level unless demand is solid. And consistent.

In other words, machines are running. Workers are busy. Orders are coming in.

It’s a good place to be.

Industrial Production Confirms the Momentum

Survey sentiment is nice. But hard numbers matter more.

And the numbers line up.

India’s Index of Industrial Production, the IIP, grew 4.8 percent year-on-year in January 2026. Not explosive growth. But healthy. Steady. Reliable.

The interesting part is where the growth is coming from.

Basic metals production jumped 13.2 percent. Motor vehicles expanded 10.9 percent. Infrastructure and construction goods surged 13.7 percent.

That last number is worth lingering on.

Construction goods rising at that pace usually signals one thing. Infrastructure work is moving. Roads, bridges, housing projects, rail expansion. All of it needs steel, cement, heavy materials.

And those industries feed directly into manufacturing activity.

So yes, factories are busy.

Really busy.

Corporate India Is Benefiting

This manufacturing momentum is spilling into corporate earnings as well.

Data from the Reserve Bank of India shows that manufacturing companies led revenue growth across India Inc. during the third quarter of FY26.

Overall corporate revenues grew 10.1 percent, with manufacturing doing a big chunk of the heavy lifting.

Which makes sense.

Manufacturing has this multiplier effect. A factory doesn’t operate in isolation. It pulls in raw materials, logistics, engineering services, suppliers, contractors. Whole ecosystems get activated.

When factories grow, economic activity spreads outwards like ripples in water.

That’s what’s happening now.

Agriculture Growth Slows

Now here’s the other side of the story. The quieter side.

Agriculture growth in the latest quarter came in at 1.42 percent.

Yes, you read that right.

Among all major sectors of the economy, agriculture is currently the slowest growing.

For the full fiscal year FY26, agricultural growth is projected at 2.5 percent. That’s a noticeable drop from 4.3 percent recorded in FY25.

Now look, agriculture is complicated. Weather plays a role. Global commodity prices play a role. Domestic policy, irrigation conditions, input costs. It’s never just one factor.

But still. The slowdown is visible.

And when agriculture slows, rural demand often follows. That’s something economists watch closely.

Because rural consumption drives a lot of everyday economic activity.

Allied Sectors Step In

But here’s where the story gets a little more nuanced.

While traditional crop farming isn’t growing very fast, allied agricultural sectors are actually expanding much faster.

Livestock production is growing 7.1 percent. Fisheries are expanding 8.8 percent.

Those are strong numbers.

What it suggests is something economists have been talking about for years. Rural income is slowly diversifying away from pure crop farming.

Dairy, poultry, and aquaculture. These activities tend to generate steadier income streams. Less vulnerable to weather shocks.

Farm households are adapting. Maybe gradually. Maybe unevenly. But adapting nonetheless.

And that shift is starting to show up in national data.

Record Foodgrain Production

Here’s the twist though.

Despite slower agricultural growth rates, India has actually produced record foodgrain output.

According to the Press Information Bureau, total foodgrain production reached 357.73 lakh tonnes in 2024–25.

Which is enormous.

So yes, agriculture is growing more slowly. But production volumes are still massive.

That’s the strange part of the story.

The country is producing more food than ever before… yet the sector’s growth rate is cooling.

Economic data can be weird like that sometimes.

What This Divergence Means

So what does manufacturing vs agriculture growth India actually tell us?

Maybe it’s simply the natural evolution of a developing economy.

Historically, as countries grow richer, manufacturing and services begin to outpace agriculture. The structure of the economy shifts. Labor moves. Investment flows into industry.

India might be moving along that path.

Factories expand. Infrastructure projects accelerate. Industrial clusters grow. Meanwhile agriculture gradually becomes more specialized.

But here’s the important bit.

Agriculture still supports a massive share of India’s population.

So while manufacturing strength is fantastic news for economic growth, policymakers still need to keep rural incomes stable.

Because factories build GDP.

But farms… farms build social stability.

And both matter.

New Delhi [India], March 14: Crude oil still runs the world. Not quietly either. It’s loud, messy, political, expensive, and weirdly unavoidable.

Oil is still right at the heart of the global economy even in 2026, when the climate conferences, electric car advertisements, and governments use such phrases as energy transitions have taken place. Ships run on it. Planes absolutely need it. Plastics come from it. A supermarket shelf has half of its items that have their source in a barrel of crude in the Middle East, the United States, or offshore Brazil. Individuals like to fantasize that we are already relinquishing oil, but the truth is that we are not. Not yet.

Look at the numbers for a second.

The global community is presently using about 100 million barrels of oil daily. That’s not a typo.. One hundred million. Daily. And weirdly enough, demand hasn’t collapsed the way some forecasts predicted a decade ago. If anything, global consumption has stayed stubbornly high. The International Energy Agency has repeatedly pointed out that oil demand keeps growing in developing economies, such as India, Southeast Asia, and parts of Africa, because industrialization simply requires enormous amounts of energy.

And induction changes… it takes time. A lot of time.

Consider it as infrastructure inertia. When many millions of gasoline cars are built, and thousands of refineries, and cross-continental pipelines, and petrochemical plants to supply whole manufacturing sectors, you do not just turn the switch and put thousands of refineries in place. It is as though attempting to change the direction of a cargo ship in the sea. Possible, yes. Fast? Not even close.

Take transportation, for example.

Electric vehicles get all the headlines, and sure, EV adoption is rising quickly in countries like China, Norway, and the United States. But the global car fleet today still includes more than 1.4 billion vehicles, and the overwhelming majority run on petrol or diesel. Even if every new car sold tomorrow were electric—which obviously isn’t happening—it would still take maybe 15 to 20 years for the existing fleet to gradually disappear.

And that’s just cars.

Aviation is a completely different beast. Jet fuel has an energy density that batteries simply can’t match right now. A fully electric long-haul aircraft? Engineers are working on it, but commercially viable versions are probably decades away. Airlines burn around 7–8 million barrels of oil per day, and that demand isn’t vanishing anytime soon.

Shipping too. Cargo ships carry about 90% of global trade, most of it powered by heavy fuel oil or marine diesel. Alternative fuels like ammonia or green methanol are being tested, but scaling those technologies across tens of thousands of vessels will take—honestly—years and years.

Then there’s petrochemicals. And this is where things get interesting.

People often think of oil mainly as fuel. Gasoline, diesel, jet fuel. But roughly 12–15% of global crude oil demand goes into petrochemicals, which means plastics, fertilizers, synthetic fibers, detergents, medical equipment, packaging… the list goes on forever. Your phone casing? Oil. Polyester clothing? Oil. Many pharmaceuticals? Also oil.

This part of the demand is actually expected to keep growing, even in aggressive clean-energy scenarios. Because as incomes rise globally, people consume more manufactured goods. More packaging. More electronics. More everything.

So… how long will people depend on crude oil?

Most serious energy forecasts, IEA, OPEC, BP, the big consulting firms, tend to land on a similar uncomfortable answer: oil will remain a major energy source until at least 2040 or 2050. Maybe longer.

But here’s the subtle thing many headlines miss. Dependence doesn’t disappear suddenly. It fades slowly.

Coal, for instance, peaked in many Western countries decades ago but still hasn’t vanished entirely. Oil will likely follow a similar pattern. Demand will eventually plateau. Then decline. But it’ll be a long slope downward, not a cliff.

India is a good example of why.

The energy needs of the country are increasing at an unbelievable rate with the growth of the cities, the development of industries and the entrance of several millions of people into middle classes. India has been consuming oil at an almost annual rate. Sure, electric mobility is increasing, but trucks, buses, and construction machines are too much dependent on diesel. And with the continuing growth of the economy, fuel demand tends to trail.

So while Europe may gradually reduce oil use, other regions are still ramping it up. Global demand ends up balancing out.

There’s also geopolitics. And honestly… this part always complicates things.

Wars, sanctions, OPEC actions, shipping shocks and financial speculation play with oil markets. An outbreak of war in the Middle East, embargo on Russian exports or a Saudi shutdown can push prices overnight. Governments understand this and that is the reason why most nations do not want to give up oil too fast. Energy security matters. A lot.

Right, so here’s the uncomfortable reality.

The world is establishing itself without crude oil. Renewable energy grows at an accelerated pace solar, wind, battery storage, all the hydrogen experiments, etc. There is an increasing number of electric vehicles. Carbon targets are being established by governments.

The transformation is not a straight line. It’s messy. Delayed here and fast here. And of a huge industrial ecosystem centuries old, crude oil is the heart.

As most observers can decipher, the global oil demand may reach its peak in the late 2030s or early 2040s. Then it is possible that it will gradually decrease as clean energy becomes larger. However, the world is also likely to continue consuming tens of millions of barrels per day even in 2050.

Not because people love oil.

Because replacing it everywhere, all at once, is just… really, really hard.

And honestly? Anyone promising a quick, painless exit from crude oil is probably oversimplifying things. The global energy system is massive. Complex. Sticky. You pull one thread, and suddenly, airlines, plastics, fertilizers, shipping, and power grids are all tangled together.

So yeah. Oil’s era isn’t ending tomorrow.

But it is slowly, awkwardly, maybe inevitably… beginning to fade. Just not as fast as people sometimes hope. Or fear.

New Delhi [India], March 14: The US-Iran war is being fought miles away in the Middle East, yet its ripples have already reached our kitchens. Ever since the war started, LPG prices have skyrocketed across the country, while many places are witnessing shortages. 

Until now, the government had been actively encouraging the use of LPG, over the years, with LPG coverage nearing 100% saturation under the Pradhan Mantri Ujjwala Yojana (PMUY).

With Indians now depending on LPG for their daily meals more than ever, the supply disruption from the Middle East has started to bite everyone from students, housewives, canteen owners, restaurateurs and more. But the lack of LPG cylinders does not mean that we go back to traditional, polluting chulhas, there are solutions that have existed earlier and can work as a viable alternative. 

Electric induction cooktops 

The induction cooktop is the primary solution here. These appliances use electromagnetic energy to heat cookware directly, making them significantly more energy-efficient than traditional electric stoves.

Induction cooktops are particularly popular these days as they run on electricity, just like your press iron. They heat food quickly, offer precise temperature control, and eliminate the risk of gas leaks. Already used as a backup during LPG refill delays, these cooktops will now rule the roost, though you will require compatible cookware and a continuous supply of electricity.

PNG pipelines emerging as a stable option

Piped Natural Gas (PNG) is another cheaper alternative in cities where gas pipeline infrastructure is available. The biggest advantage here is convenience, as you get a continuous supply through pipelines, like water or electricity, though its availability is limited to certain cities for now.

Electric pressure cookers and multi-cookers

Electric pressure cookers have been around for quite some time now, and can be used to make rice, dal, curries or streamed dishes without using LPG. Ideal for household use, many of these models come with programmable settings, allowing you to prepare quick meals using standard electricity connections. 

Solar cookers offer eco-friendly option

Solar cookers are another alternative that has long been promoted in India but remains underutilized. These devices use sunlight to generate heat for cooking, making them completely fuel-free and environmentally friendly.

They work well in regions with strong sunlight and are ideal for slow cooking dishes such as rice, lentils, and vegetables, though they aren’t that popular as weather conditions and daylight availability of sunlight varies widely. 

The road ahead

The LPG shortage highlights the importance of diversifying India’s cooking energy ecosystem. While LPG continues to remain the primary cooking fuel for millions of households, alternatives using electric appliances and piped gas systems will be highly encouraged as a hedge to remove the dependency on LPG cylinders. 

Though you may not be able to replace LPG entirely, these backup options offer a viable alternative that doesn’t require you to stand in line for hours for a gas cylinder. Given the rising costs of these cylinders, you could even use LPG as a backup if necessary!

Platform brings youth, industry and incubators together to explore entrepreneurship as an emerging livelihood pathway

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], March 13:  Bright Future convened Yuvarambh 2026, its flagship youth dialogue platform, on 16–17 February 2026 at Acres Club, Chembur, Mumbai. Anchored in the theme, “Badi Soch – Building Entrepreneurial Pathways for Youth in a Changing India,” the two-day convening brought together young people to explore how entrepreneurship can become a realistic livelihood pathway for India’s youth.

Young people today face several challenges when it comes to starting their own businesses. While platforms showcasing innovation and investment have grown, many aspiring entrepreneurs still struggle to understand how to move from an idea to the start-up stage. Yuvarambh was created to address this gap as a national youth dialogue-to-action platform that connects grassroots aspirations with the entrepreneurship ecosystem, including incubators, industry, financial institutions, and policymakers, encouraging practical thinking and collaborative problem-solving.

Building on insights from Yuvarambh 2024, which focused on access, mobility, and employability, the 2026 edition revealed a noticeable shift in youth aspirations. Many participants, particularly first-generation learners, expressed growing interest in entrepreneurship and self-created livelihood opportunities. However, conversations also highlighted structural barriers such as limited access to capital, mentorship, professional networks, and early exposure to markets.

Yuvarambh 2026 addressed these challenges by positioning entrepreneurship not merely as an elite start-up journey but as a practical, community-rooted pathway capable of generating sustainable livelihoods. The programme encouraged participants to identify real problems within their communities, explore business ideas, and understand the steps required to move from concept to execution.

Across the two days, participants engaged in interactive workshops on idea discovery, validation, and basic business planning, supported by mentorship circles and peer-learning spaces that encouraged collaboration. Over the two days, 80 youth explored more than 50 community-rooted business ideas, with 12 ideas moving forward for mentorship support through pitch presentations under Bright Future’s entrepreneurship pathway.

A key highlight was the ecosystem panel on youth entrepreneurship, which brought together representatives from incubators, MSMEs, microfinance institutions, corporates, and grassroots enterprises. Panelists emphasised that beyond capital, young entrepreneurs need mentorship, networks, and early market exposure areas where ecosystem partnerships can play a crucial role in enabling sustainable growth.

Selected participants also presented concepts during youth pitch sessions designed as learning and feedback platforms rather than competitive showcases. Engagement zones across the venue highlighted student ventures, documented youth stories, and gathered insights on sector interests and mentorship needs.

Kishor Palve, CEO and Founder of Bright Future India, said, “Yuvarambh 2026 reaffirmed our belief that entrepreneurship can be a powerful and accessible pathway for young people. Badi Soch means meeting youth where they are, recognising their aspirations and constraints while equipping them with skills, confidence, and support to build livelihoods.”

Dr. Arpeeta Bhatia, Program Head at Bright Future, said, “What stood out at Yuvarambh was the clarity and courage with which young people spoke about the problems they want to solve in their communities. Many of them are first-generation learners exploring entrepreneurship for the first time. Moments like these remind us why spaces for youth ideas and guidance matter.”

Yuvarambh 2026 reinforced Bright Future’s long-term commitment to enabling sustained youth action through mentorship, ecosystem partnerships, and entrepreneurship support that continues beyond the event and into communities, helping young people turn ideas into meaningful livelihood opportunities.

About Bright Future

Bright Future is a non-profit organisation working with young people aged 11–25 years to build life skills, career readiness, and livelihood pathways through mentoring, internships, and ecosystem partnerships. With a reach of over 40,000 young people across multiple Indian cities, Bright Future focuses on bridging the gap between education, employment, and sustainable livelihoods.

New Delhi [India], March 13: The Indian real estate market is experiencing a shift from traditional methods to a digital ecosystem that leverages AI, and is projected to reach USD 3.79 billion to USD 4.29 billion by 2030. PropTech Pulse is emerging as India’s most trusted all-in-one, knowledge-led platform in the real estate ecosystem. By placing knowledge at the heart, the platform is addressing one of the sector’s most fundamental challenges-enabling homebuyers and investors to access reliable, decision-ready intelligence in property transactions.

The platform is designed for developers, investors, lenders, and advisors, PropTech Pulse serves as a unified knowledge and services ecosystem that supports every stakeholder involved in the real estate value chain.

The Trust Deficit in Indian Real Estate

For decades, India’s real estate market has struggled with a credibility crisis. Homebuyers have navigated through layers of ambiguity, from unclear property titles and hidden costs to unreliable developer promises and complex regulatory frameworks. According to industry estimates, information gaps have historically contributed to project delays, financial losses, and widespread buyer skepticism that has dampened market sentiment.

PropTech Pulse recognizes that trust isn’t built through transactions alone-it’s cultivated through education, transparency, and empowerment. This philosophy underpins the platform’s unique approach to reshaping India’s property landscape.

A Knowledge-First Ecosystem

The value proposition is an expansive Knowledge Hub that democratizes real estate information. The platform’s “Pulse University” enables users to learn about property investment and home ownership while earning knowledge credentials, transforming passive consumers into informed decision-makers.

Celebrates the ambition and grit of D2C sellers while positioning Shiprocket as the unified tech backbone powering their growth

New Delhi [India], March 13: Shiprocket, India’s leading eCommerce enablement platform, today unveiled its latest brand film that talks to Indian eCommerce owners directly, understands their challenges and encourages them to use technology solutions to simplify their operations. A powerful tribute to the country’s burgeoning community of D2C and eCommerce entrepreneurs who are reshaping India.

The film opens with reality, a founder juggling multiple platforms for shipping, payments, marketing, and customer communication. Decisions made on incomplete information. Time spent firefighting operations instead of building a brand. The quiet weight of a business that is growing but running harder than it should have to.

Having served over 400,000 merchants across more than 19,000 pin codes, Shiprocket has had a front-row view of what India’s entrepreneurs actually face, not just the ambition, but the daily grind behind it. This brand film is built from that understanding, deepening Shiprocket’s “For Bharat” positioning, a commitment to being more than a service provider, and more meaningfully, a growth partner built around the reality of running a business in India.

Kautilya Pandey, Head Marketing & Growth, Shiprocket, said: “India doesn’t have a founder problem. It has an infrastructure problem. The ambition is everywhere, in every city, every category, every first-generation entrepreneur betting on themselves. What’s been missing is a platform built around their reality, not borrowed from someone else’s. That’s what Shiprocket is, and that’s what this film is about.

The insight the film is anchored in is straightforward but important: India has no shortage of great products, great ideas, or driven founders. What holds businesses back is the complexity of scaling, the operational load that grows with every new order, every new market, every new channel. When that complexity is spread across disconnected tools and partners, it doesn’t just slow growth. It drains the energy and attention that founders need to build something lasting.

The film directly acknowledges this friction point while positioning Shiprocket in the reality of India’s entrepreneurial ecosystem. Across shipping, payments, checkout, marketing automation, fulfilment, and cross-border trade, Shipprocket gives India’s D2C and MSME sellers the tools they need to grow on their own terms.

The brand film is now live across digital platforms.

English Version:

Hindi Version:

Navi Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], March 10: Open4All, a Navi Mumbai-based startup, has launched what it describes as India’s simplest and most affordable consent-based digital background verification platform, powered by trusted government data sources including Aadhaar, PAN, EPFO, eCourt, CBIL, and others. Every year across India, thousands of companies unknowingly hire employees who submit forged documents, falsify educational qualifications, exaggerate their work experience, or hide critical details about their past employment. In many cases, organizations discover these discrepancies only months after hiring, and sometimes not at all. Open4All was built specifically to address this growing yet often overlooked problem.

Background verification is not a new concept, but in India the process is often ignored by small and mid-sized businesses. The existing verification systems are typically slow, expensive, heavily dependent on third-party agents, and involve significant paperwork. By the time the verification report arrives, the employee may already be working inside the organization. As a result, many companies choose to skip the process altogether. This creates serious risks for businesses, as employees may submit fake marksheets, misrepresent their previous employers, hide criminal records, or inflate salary histories. Such actions not only cause financial losses but can also damage workplace trust, create legal complications, and potentially threaten the stability of an organization.

Mahesh Rajole, Co-Founder of Open4All, explains that the idea came from repeated conversations with HR professionals, founders, and business owners. “Almost everyone knew this was a problem,” he says. “But they either thought background verification was too expensive for them, or they believed the process was too complicated. We decided to remove both those barriers.”

Open4All operates as a fully digital, consent-based background verification platform designed specifically for the Indian hiring ecosystem. HR professionals, founders, and company owners can register their organizations on the platform at www.open4all.in and begin verifying employees within minutes without dealing with agents or paperwork. The process is designed to be simple and efficient. First, the company registers on the platform. Next, the employer adds the employee’s name, email address, and mobile number. The employee then provides digital consent for the verification. Once consent is granted, Open4All checks relevant government databases instantly. Within minutes, the company receives a clear and transparent verification report.

A key differentiator for Open4All is its reliance on authoritative government-backed data sources instead of self-declarations or third-party estimates. The platform verifies identity using Aadhaar, confirms financial and tax identity through PAN, checks employment history via EPFO records, identifies potential criminal records through eCourt databases, and reviews financial credibility using CBIL data, along with other trusted government databases. Importantly, all verifications are conducted only after obtaining the employee’s explicit digital consent, ensuring full compliance with India’s Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Act. No personal data is collected or processed without permission.

Gauri Borade, Co-Founder of Open4All, emphasizes that accessibility and affordability were central to the platform’s design. “We wanted every organization—whether it is a three-person startup in Navi Mumbai or a three-hundred-person company in Delhi—to verify employees quickly, properly, and without spending excessive money. That is why our pricing is transparent and affordable.”

Unlike many verification services that require negotiations or customized quotations, Open4All publishes its pricing openly on its website. There are no hidden costs, and companies can begin using the platform immediately without lengthy discussions or contracts. The platform is available across India, allowing organizations in any city to verify employees digitally and instantly.

Open4All is designed for a wide range of users involved in hiring decisions, including HR managers and recruitment teams, company founders and business owners, staffing agencies, educational institutions conducting admissions verification, and any organization that wants to hire responsibly and reduce risk.

Founded in Navi Mumbai by Mahesh Rajole and Gauri Borade, Open4All aims to modernize employee verification in India through a transparent, consent-driven, and fully digital approach. By combining government-backed data sources with an easy-to-use platform and straightforward pricing, the company seeks to make reliable background verification accessible to organizations of all sizes across the country.

New Delhi [India], March 10:  Lighting today is no longer viewed as just a functional element inside a home. It has become an important part of interior design, influencing the mood and overall character of a space. From cozy bedrooms to relaxing reading corners, lighting plays a significant role in shaping how a home feels. As modern interior styles continue to evolve, homeowners are increasingly searching for lighting that blends aesthetics, comfort, and thoughtful design. Florra Living is one of the emerging Indian brands exploring this shift by focusing on lighting that combines design, technology, and atmosphere.

Florra Living focuses on creating mood lighting and aesthetic lamps designed for modern Indian homes. Instead of producing traditional lamps that simply prioritize brightness, the brand aims to design lighting pieces that enhance the ambiance of a room. Inspired by contemporary décor trends, many Florra Living designs follow minimalist and Pinterest-inspired aesthetics that are becoming increasingly popular in modern home interiors. These lamps are intended to act not only as lighting fixtures but also as decorative elements that contribute to the overall visual feel of a space.

A strong part of the brand’s philosophy is its Made in India approach, where design and production are developed with Indian homes and lifestyles in mind. By combining thoughtful design with modern manufacturing techniques, Florra Living aims to create lamps that feel both stylish and practical for everyday living environments.

Technology also plays an important role in the design process. To develop unique forms and lighting structures, Florra Living uses a combination of design experimentation and engineering-driven prototyping. Advanced tools are used to explore different shapes and structures, allowing the team to refine designs and test new ideas before final production. In several cases, 3D printing technology is used to develop prototypes and complex lamp forms, enabling creative designs that would be difficult to achieve through conventional methods.

Alongside modern design technology, the brand also incorporates handcrafted elements in many of its lamps. Hand assembly and manual finishing processes allow the products to maintain a sense of craftsmanship and attention to detail. By blending modern production techniques with handcrafted finishing, Florra Living aims to bring together technology and artistry within its lighting designs.

The brand was founded by Sohel Khan, Computer Science engineer who currently working as a brand strategist. He started Florra Living with the goal of building a modern Indian décor brand that combines technology with thoughtful product design. He is joined by Farah Khan, cofounder of Florra Living and a 3D design artist with a background in BBA, who is responsible for designing many of the lamp concepts and prototypes that shape the brand’s visual identity.

This combination of design creativity, technology, and craftsmanship allows Florra Living to explore lighting styles that go beyond conventional lamps. Some designs are developed through engineering-led experimentation, while others are refined through hands-on craftsmanship, creating a balance between innovation and artistic detail.

The growing interest in aesthetic lighting reflects a broader shift in how people approach home décor. Many homeowners are gradually moving away from traditional lamps that serve only a functional role and are instead choosing lighting pieces that contribute to the atmosphere of their living spaces. Soft glow table lamps, sculptural lighting forms, and decorative lighting accents are becoming increasingly common in modern interiors.

Florra Living positions its lamps within this evolving design culture by focusing on calm, cozy, and visually balanced lighting. Whether placed on bedside tables, shelves, or reading corners, the lamps are designed to enhance the ambiance of a room while acting as subtle décor elements.

As interior design continues to evolve and homeowners seek more expressive décor solutions, lighting is becoming one of the most important tools for shaping the character of a home. Florra Living represents a growing category of design-focused lighting brands in India that are combining modern design thinking, technological innovation, and handcrafted detailing to create lighting suited for contemporary living spaces.

Held at the IIT Bombay campus in Powai, the conclave brought together industry leaders, project heads, architects, engineers and entrepreneurs to discuss leadership, innovation and the growing role of women in shaping India’s infrastructure and built environment.

“CWIC 2026 once again demonstrated the growing strength and influence of women in India’s construction ecosystem. By bringing industry leaders, iconic national projects and outstanding women professionals onto one platform, the conclave reinforces that women today are not just part of the sector — they are actively shaping its future”, said Ms. Sheetal Bhilkar, President, TRWGC

Renowned architect Sanjay Puri attended the event as Chief Guest and delivered the keynote address, presenting two of his internationally acclaimed architectural projects. His presentation focused on bold design thinking, sustainability and the importance of contextual architecture in rapidly urbanising environments.

One of the most anticipated sessions of the conclave was a detailed case study on the engineering and execution of the Ram Mandir Ayodhya project, presented by L&T Construction. The session offered participants insights into the scale, structural complexity and precision engineering involved in delivering one of India’s most significant contemporary temple projects.

A major highlight of the day was the National Level Real Woman Awards 2026, which honoured women professionals for their achievements across leadership, sustainability, site execution, entrepreneurship and innovation within the construction and infrastructure ecosystem. The awards followed a rigorous multi-stage evaluation process involving zonal jury assessments, validation interviews and final review by a Grand Jury.

India’s construction and infrastructure sector — one of the country’s largest employment generators — has historically seen low female participation, particularly in technical and site leadership roles. Platforms like TRWGC aim to change that narrative by creating industry recognition, mentorship opportunities and visible role models for the next generation of professionals.

The event was supported by Polycab India as Title Sponsor, Ravel Electronics as Co-Sponsor, Powered by Apar and Panel discussion by Gebrit. The day-long conclave featured keynote presentations, project showcases, panel discussions and the awards ceremony, making it one of the most significant national gatherings focused on women in construction and infrastructure.

New Delhi [India], March 07: Asset Kart, a technology-driven real estate investment platform, is redefining how investors participate in land ownership in India by introducing fractional land investment opportunities starting at ₹10 lakh.

The platform aims to democratise access to land investments by combining technology, transparency, and structured investment frameworks, allowing investors to participate in curated land opportunities that were traditionally accessible only to a limited group of high-capital investors.

As India accelerates its digital transformation under initiatives such as Digital India, technology platforms are increasingly reshaping traditional sectors — and real estate is now witnessing a similar shift. Asset Kart seeks to leverage this transformation to create a more accessible and transparent ecosystem for land investments.

Opening Access to a Traditionally Restricted Asset Class

At the core of the Asset Kart platform lies a powerful idea — Access.

For decades, land investments in India have largely remained restricted due to high entry costs, limited transparency, and operational complexities. Asset Kart is working to bridge this gap by enabling investors to participate in professionally curated land opportunities through a technology-enabled platform.

Through its digital investment framework, Asset Kart provides investors with:

Access to Premium Land Opportunities

Carefully curated land investment opportunities located in high-growth regions across India.

Access to Transparency

Digitised ownership structures that provide investors with greater visibility into their investments. Investors can track their fractional ownership through their Demat accounts, enabling greater confidence and clarity.

Lower Entry Barriers

With a minimum investment starting from ₹10 lakh, Asset Kart significantly reduces the traditional capital requirement associated with land investments.

Portfolio Diversification

Investors can diversify their real estate exposure across multiple land opportunities and locations, helping mitigate concentration risk.

Structured Exit Pathways

Investment structures designed to create potential liquidity pathways, addressing one of the long-standing challenges associated with land investments.

Strong Investor Response to First Opportunity

Asset Kart has already witnessed encouraging early traction from investors. The platform’s first land investment opportunity in Dwarka, Gujarat received a strong response from the market, with Phase 1 being fully funded by participating investors.

Building on this momentum, the company has now announced Dwarka Phase 2, offering investors another opportunity to participate in the same high-potential location.

The successful completion of Phase 1 highlights the growing demand among investors for structured, transparent, and technology-enabled access to land investments.

Founders’ Vision for the Future of Land Investing

Speaking about the long-term vision of the platform, Mukesh Mulani and Ankesh Jain, founders of Asset Kart, said:

“Real estate — particularly land — has historically been one of India’s most valuable asset classes, yet access has remained limited for many investors. Our vision with Asset Kart is to bridge this gap by using technology to make land investments more accessible, transparent, and structured.” — Mukesh Mulani

“We believe the future of real estate investing will be digital, data-driven, and inclusive. Through Asset Kart, we aim to create a platform where investors from across India can participate in premium land opportunities with confidence and clarity.” — Ankesh Jain

With the rapid adoption of digital investment platforms and growing investor interest in alternative real estate opportunities, Asset Kart aims to position itself at the forefront of India’s emerging fractional land investment ecosystem.

Surat (Gujarat) [India], March 07: A grand Fashion Show and Talent Show for Divyang talents was organized under the leadership of Love N Care Charitable Trust at the Bajigauri Air Theater of Vanita Vishram College in the city. Addressing the program, Deputy Chief Minister of Gujarat Harsh Sanghvi stated that Divyang individuals possess special strengths compared to ordinary people and that is why they are special.

New Delhi [India], March 05: In an era where perception shapes power and narratives influence public opinion faster than policy announcements, political success demands more than popularity. It requires discipline, a well-engineered strategy, and strong architecture.

Andhra Pradesh is witnessing a structural shift in political consulting where campaigns are no longer seasonal operations but continuous strategic ecosystems. At the center of this transformation stands Chandu Venkata Satish, widely regarded as a leading political consultant in Andhra Pradesh, and the founder of Political Engineer — recognized as a modern political consultant company redefining leadership positioning and electoral execution through structured political consultancy systems.

Engineering Politics for the Digital Era

Political competition in Andhra Pradesh ranks among the most dynamic in the country. Voter awareness is high. Media ecosystems are aggressive. Digital platforms amplify every statement.

Traditional campaign management alone cannot handle this intensity.

Political Engineer operates as a strategic command center delivering premier political consultancy services in AP, integrating data analytics, psychological positioning, narrative framing, leadership branding, and ground-level cadre alignment into one cohesive system.

Every campaign is treated as a structured operation with measurable outcomes — a defining standard followed by top political consultants in modern Indian politics.

The Visionary Behind Political Engineer

Born in Chirala into a weaver family, Chandu Venkata Satish’s journey refl ects discipline, resilience, and long-term thinking. With a B.Tech in Electrical & Electronics, he began his career mentoring students before entering digital media and eventually transitioning into high-level political consultancy.

He did not adapt to politics — he redesigned its structure.

Having worked with senior leaders and Union Ministers, he understood a critical gap: Politics required technology-backed strategic precision.

This insight led to the birth of Political Engineer — a political consultant company that merges:

• Strategic foresight
• Digital dominance
• Profile engineering
• Organizational strengthening
• Cadre training
• Narrative control

Media platforms have recognized him as India’s fi rst Political Engineer — an innovator who integrates technology and political psychology to shape outcomes rather than react to them. Today, he is acknowledged among the top political consultants contributing to structured campaign ecosystems in Andhra Pradesh.

Beyond Consulting: Building Political Infrastructure

A Political Engineer does more than manage campaigns. It builds political infrastructure through advanced political consultancy frameworks designed for long-term leadership sustainability.

1. Leadership Positioning & Authority Architecture: Politicians are shaped into authoritative brands with clear identity, messaging discipline, and consistent public perception — a defi ning feature of the best political consultancy in Andhra Pradesh.

2. Digital Command Centre: A centralized strategic hub that monitors, manages, and controls digital narratives, public sentiment, and real-time campaign communication across all platforms.

3. Digital War Room Systems: Campaigns are supported by structured content pipelines, real-time response frameworks, and social media ecosystem management under a centralized political consultant in the Andhra Pradesh strategy model.

4. Constituency Intelligence Mapping: Data-driven voter segmentation, issue prioritization, and targeted communication strategies ensure precision outreach — hallmarks of premier political consultancy services in AP.

5. Cadre Training & Organizational Strengthening: Supporters evolve into trained communicators and disciplined political representatives, strengthening long-term grassroots infl uence.

This multi-layered framework establishes Political Engineer not merely as a campaign agency, but as a full-scale political consultancy company offering sustainable and scalable political consultancy solutions.

Introducing the Political Engineer AI Avatar

Innovation separates leaders from followers.

Political Engineer introduced the Political Engineer AI Avatar — a pioneering digital solution designed to amplify leadership presence across platforms and redefi ne modern political consultancy integration.

The AI Avatar serves as:

• A 24/7 digital spokesperson
• A multilingual communication amplifier
• A content replication engine
• A personalized voter engagement tool

Leaders today must maintain continuous visibility. The AI Avatar ensures consistent messaging across digital platforms while preserving voice alignment and ideological clarity — strengthening the strategic edge of any political consultant in Andhra Pradesh, leveraging AI-backed systems.

Few fi rms positioned among the top political consultants in India offer such technology-integrated political identity solutions. Political Engineer places Andhra Pradesh at the forefront of AI-backed political communication, reinforcing its stature as the best political consultancy in Andhra Pradesh.

The Statesman Daily Planner: Discipline as Strategy

Political victories are not accidental. They are scheduled.

The Statesman Daily Planner, conceptualized by Chandu Venkata Satish, transforms leadership discipline into a structured daily practice — extending the philosophy of structured political consultancy beyond campaigns.

Designed specifically for politicians, aspirants, and public representatives, the planner integrates:

• Strategic goal mapping
• Daily constituency priorities
• Media interaction tracking
• Cadre coordination tasks
• Long-term political vision alignment
• Reflection and narrative refinement sections

While campaigns demand external infl uence, leadership demands internal clarity.

The Statesman Daily Planner bridges this gap — aligning daily action with long-term political positioning. It instills structure, accountability, and strategic consistency in leadership routines, strengthening the institutional depth of this political consultant company.

Authority in the Political Consultancy Niche

Political consulting in India is evolving rapidly. However, few fi rms combine:

• Strategic philosophy
• Technological innovation
• Cadre empowerment models
• Personal leadership discipline tools
• AI-driven communication systems

Political Engineer operates with a clear doctrine: “Our Thoughts Determine Our Reality.”

This philosophy drives its structured political consultancy frameworks, leadership training modules, and digital infrastructure systems — distinguishing it among the top political Consultants and positioning it as a provider of premier political consultancy services in AP.

National recognitions, including awards for Innovator in Political Strategy and Political Digital Strategist of the Year, further validate its industry authority.

Andhra Pradesh’s Strategic Future

Andhra Pradesh represents a politically conscious and competitive state. Leaders require precision positioning, technological integration, and narrative dominance to succeed.

Political Engineer, recognized as a leading political consultant in Andhra Pradesh, provides:

• Long-term electoral planning
• AI-backed leadership amplifi cation
• Structured digital ecosystems
• Organizational strengthening frameworks
• Strategic daily discipline tools

This comprehensive model establishes Chandu Venkata Satish among the top political consultants shaping modern electoral strategy and reinforces Political Engineer as the best political consultancy in Andhra Pradesh, offering institutional-grade political consultancy services.

In a state where electoral battles grow sharper each cycle, strategic engineering determines leadership trajectories.

Political Engineer stands positioned as a dominant political consultant in Andhra Pradesh and a recognized name among the top political consultants, shaping leaders, structuring campaigns, and redefi ning modern political consultancy with authority and innovation.

New Delhi [India], March 06: In this opinion piece, we see how Shekhar Natarajan, the Founder and CEO of Orchestro.AI, aims to align his career based on his childhood experiences. 

Shekhar Natarajan arrived in America with $34 in his pocket.

He had grown up in South Central India, in a one-room house in Secunderabad where his family lived without electricity. He studied under street lights because there was no other way to read at night. His mother bound newspapers to earn a few rupees; when he needed money for education, she pawned her wedding ring for 30 rupees.

That sacrifice — a mother’s wedding ring traded for a son’s future — shaped everything that followed.

“Real wealth is not money,” Natarajan says. “Real wealth is wisdom. My mother understood that. She gave up her most precious possession so I could learn. That’s not optimization — that’s love.”

The Corporate Ascent

From those beginnings, Natarajan built one of the most remarkable careers in American business. He earned degrees from Georgia Tech, MIT, Harvard Business School, and IESE. He spent 25 years in Fortune 500 leadership at companies including Coca-Cola, PepsiCo, Walmart, Target, Disney, and American Eagle.

At Walmart, he grew the grocery business from $30 million to $5 billion. He pioneered crowdsourced delivery systems that transformed how products reach consumers. At Disney, he helped create the MagicBand experience that millions of visitors now take for granted. Along the way, he accumulated over 207 patents.

He was, by any measure, a master optimizer — someone who understood how to squeeze efficiency from complex systems, how to make supply chains faster and cheaper, how to scale operations across continents.

And then he looked at what optimization had wrought.

The Reckoning

“I spent decades making systems more efficient,” Natarajan reflects. “Faster. Cheaper. More scalable. And I was good at it. But efficiency without ethics is just sophisticated cruelty.”

He saw delivery workers pushed to dangerous speeds by algorithms he could have designed. He saw loan collection systems that automated harassment with techniques he could have invented. He saw welfare systems that deleted hungry children from databases with the same dispassion they’d delete duplicate records.

The skills he had spent a lifetime developing were being used to harm people. Not by villains — by systems. By algorithms optimizing for metrics that didn’t include human dignity.

“The people building these systems aren’t evil,” he says. “They’re optimizing for the metrics they’re given. The problem is that the metrics don’t include compassion. They don’t include dignity. They don’t include the child asking her mother for rice.”

The Morning Practice

Every morning at 4 AM, Natarajan practices classical Indian painting.

It is both artistic expression and problem-solving methodology. The discipline of the brush, the patience of the stroke, the attention to detail — these are not separate from his work on AI. They are preparation for it.

“Building technology with love, not speed, over thousand-year timeframes” — this is how he describes his philosophy. It sounds impractical until you realize what the alternative has produced.

Move fast and break things. Santoshi Kumari was broken.

Disrupt everything. Bhupendra Vishwakarma’s family was disrupted.

Scale at all costs. The cost was paid by gig workers dying on the roads.

“We’ve tried building technology fast,” Natarajan says. “Now let’s try building it right.”

The Wedding Ring

Natarajan still thinks about his mother’s wedding ring.

“She didn’t optimize,” he says. “She sacrificed. She gave up something precious so something more precious could grow. That’s what love does. That’s what the best technology should do — not extract value, but create space for human flourishing.”

Angelic Intelligence is, in some ways, an attempt to encode that mother’s love into computational systems. To build AI that asks, before every action: Does this help people flourish? Does this create space for dignity? Does this honor the sacrifice of those who came before?

It’s an audacious project. It may be an impossible one.

But someone has to try.

“I came from nothing,” Natarajan says. “I studied under street lights. I know what it means to be invisible to systems. And I know that the child asking for rice in Jharkhand is not a deletion error. She’s a human being. If our technology can’t see that, our technology is broken.”

He pauses.

“My mother pawned her wedding ring so I could have a future. I’m trying to build AI that honors that sacrifice — AI that sees every human being as worthy of that kind of love.”

New Delhi [India], March 06: India’s food security framework rests on the strength of institutions that can translate policy into consistent action. At the centre of this system is the Food Corporation of India (FCI), a statutory body entrusted with procuring, storing, and distributing food grains across the country. Functioning under the Ministry of Consumer Affairs, Food and Public Distribution, FCI’s role extends beyond logistics, it represents administrative continuity, regulatory discipline, and the assurance that food reaches millions of beneficiaries without disruption. Its operational model demonstrates how structured governance, coordination, and accountability can sustain one of the world’s largest food security systems.

“Policy execution at FCI is not merely about implementing directives; it is about translating national intent into daily operational reality,” says Sudeep Singh, Former Executive Director, FCI. “The organization functions through a well-defined administrative framework where procurement, storage, and distribution operate in close coordination. Each function is supported by regulatory compliance, real-time monitoring, and institutional discipline, ensuring that food security commitments are met with consistency and credibility.”

A key pillar of this execution lies in procurement operations, where FCI ensures that farmers receive fair prices while strengthening national reserves. Through Minimum Support Price (MSP) procurement, the organization stabilizes agricultural markets and protects farmer incomes. This process requires coordination between field officers, state agencies, and quality control teams. Sudeep Singh notes, “Procurement is not an isolated transaction, it is a structured administrative exercise supported by inspection, documentation, and verification systems that safeguard both farmer interests and public accountability.” Such structured procurement ensures that food grains entering the system meet defined standards while reinforcing trust in public institutions.

Storage management further reflects the organization’s administrative precision. Maintaining buffer stocks is essential to addressing seasonal fluctuations, emergencies, and welfare commitments. Scientific storage practices, regular inspections, and systematic stock rotation ensure that food grains remain fit for distribution. Administrative excellence is visible in the details: timely inspections, accurate record-keeping, and preventive measures ensure that operational risks are minimized and food quality is preserved. These measures reduce wastage and reinforce operational reliability across FCI’s extensive depot network.

Distribution operations highlight the scale and coordination required to serve a diverse and geographically vast population. Food grains are transported from surplus regions to deficit areas through rail and road networks, ensuring equitable availability under national welfare programs. This movement involves synchronized planning between regional offices, logistics teams, and monitoring units. Mr. Sudeep Singh explains, “Movement planning reflects institutional discipline. Every dispatch, every receipt, and every stock position is tracked, ensuring that supply chain decisions are informed by real-time administrative data.” This data-driven approach enables timely decisions and ensures uninterrupted supply.

Administrative transparency has become increasingly central to FCI’s operations. The integration of digital tools has strengthened multiple processes. “Technology has reinforced administrative clarity. It ensures that information flows seamlessly across departments, enabling faster decisions while strengthening accountability,” explains Sudeep Singh. These systems not only enhance efficiency but also align operational practices with modern governance standards.

Institutional discipline is reinforced through training, professional development, and compliance mechanisms. Officers undergo structured capacity-building programs to enhance their technical and administrative skills, supported by institutions such as the Institute of Food Security. This continuous training ensures that personnel remain equipped to manage evolving operational challenges.

Compliance and accountability remain central to maintaining operational integrity. Internal audits, inspections, and supervisory mechanisms ensure adherence to regulatory frameworks. These checks not only prevent irregularities but also improve process efficiency over time. Accountability is built into the system through structured reporting, supervision, and review. It ensures that administrative actions remain aligned with policy objectives and public responsibility. Such oversight reinforces public confidence and strengthens institutional credibility.

FCI’s administrative model also demonstrates adaptability. As operational demands evolve, the organization continues to modernize its infrastructure, streamline processes, and adopt technology-driven solutions. This evolution reflects an understanding that policy execution must remain responsive to changing conditions while maintaining core governance principles.

Ultimately, FCI represents more than a procurement and distribution agency, it reflects the administrative backbone of India’s food security framework. Its structured processes, transparent systems, and disciplined workforce ensure that national policy commitments translate into reliable service delivery. By maintaining operational integrity and strengthening administrative excellence, the organization continues to safeguard food availability for millions.

As Sudeep Singh concludes, “FCI’s effectiveness is rooted in its administrative foundation. When policy, process, and accountability work together, the institution becomes not just an implementing agency, but a dependable pillar of national food security.”

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], March 05: India’s plastics manufacturing sector is witnessing a strong export moment.

Over 200 FIEO-verified international buyers are set to visit India to source plastic finished products, reinforcing the country’s emergence as a serious global sourcing hub.

This large-scale, exclusive, and curated buyer participation reflects growing global confidence in India’s manufacturing capabilities and export readiness. Organised by the All India Plastics Manufacturers Association (AIPMA) and supported by FIEO (Federation of Indian Export Organizations), the Ministry of Commerce & Industry, and the Department of Chemicals & Petrochemicals, PlastiWorld 2026 is designed as a high-impact, export-driven platform connecting Indian plastic finished goods manufacturers directly with verified overseas buyers. 

What FIEO-Verified Signifies

The buyers have been screened and verified by the Federation of Indian Export Organisations (FIEO), India’s apex promotion body. Verification ensures:

• Authentic business credentials
• Confirmed sourcing intent
• Established trade track records
• Procurement authority

A structured vetting process such as this ensures that participation is driven by genuine commercial interest, not simply exploratory footfall. The sponsored buyer format further strengthens seriousness and commercial intent, bringing decision-makers with active sourcing mandates directly to Indian manufacturers.

For export-ready companies, the opportunity to meet 200+ qualified international buyers on a single platform significantly accelerates market access, reduces customer acquisition costs, and increases conversion potential.

This milestone reflects a broader shift: India is no longer viewed solely as a domestic production centre. With competitive manufacturing, improving compliance standards, and scalable capacity, India is emerging as an export-oriented sourcing destination for plastic finished products.

As global supply chains diversify, the world is turning to India. And India is ready to lead.

About PlastiWorld

PlastiWorld is India’s premier global trade event for plastic finished products, organised by AIPMA.

New Delhi [India], March 06: For generations, India’s social structure revolved around the joint family system, where multiple generations lived together and elders were naturally cared for within the household. In many homes, several family members managed domestic responsibilities while a smaller number worked outside to support the household financially. Elder care was never seen as a separate responsibility, it was simply part of daily life.

But India’s family structure is changing rapidly.

Over the past few decades, joint families have gradually shifted to nuclear families, especially in urban India. The next generation is witnessing an even more individualized lifestyle. Many young adults today prefer independent living, single-person households, or flexible relationships that allow financial and geographic mobility.

Yesterday’s greed has become today’s need. Rising living costs, demanding careers, and global aspirations mean that in most households both partners must work long hours to maintain financial stability. At the same time, modern social life- shaped by social media, travel, entertainment, and experiences- requires significant time and attention.

As a result, the time and focus available for taking care of elderly parents at home has steadily reduced.

Many seniors today experience loneliness, even while living within their families. Some turn to digital platforms such as NEMA Club+, where they can find engagement, companionship, and emotional support. Short conversations during busy days rarely provide the meaningful companionship elders once enjoyed. Differences in lifestyle, technology, and worldview between generations can also make everyday interactions more difficult.

There is another reality that society rarely discusses openly. Financial independence often determines whether seniors can comfortably remain within family homes. Where elders have savings or inheritance to pass on, families may feel a stronger sense of responsibility. But where financial security is limited, the situation can become more complex.

These social shifts are gradually reshaping how India thinks about elder care, retirement living, and senior care solutions. For decades, old age homes in India carried a negative image. They were often perceived as dilapidated institutions run by governments or charities, meant only for those abandoned by their families.

But that perception is changing fast.

Across India, organisations like NEMA Elderare are building a new generation of private senior living communities and modern old age homes designed for dignity, comfort, and companionship. These residential communities operate on a monthly living model and provide structured environments specifically designed for seniors.

Residents typically receive nutritious meals, housekeeping, laundry services, organised activities, and regular healthcare monitoring. More importantly, they live among people of similar age groups, allowing them to build friendships and stay socially active.

For many seniors, such environments offer something that busy urban homes often cannot provide, daily companionship and community life. Increasingly, families see these communities not as places of abandonment but as thoughtful lifestyle choices. Children can proudly say that their parents live in a well-managed senior living community such as NEMA, where the environment, activities, food, and healthcare support are difficult to replicate in a typical household.

Importantly, families willingly pay for such arrangements. It is not abandonment, it is a conscious decision to ensure that parents live with dignity, safety, and companionship. Modern senior living communities also offer something traditional homes often struggle to provide: continuity of care.

Many seniors initially move into these communities while they are still independent and active. However, as age progresses, some may require assisted living, dementia care, or support for chronic illnesses. In structured ecosystems like NEMA, seniors can transition to facilities better suited to their evolving health needs.

In other words, while the living environment may change, care continues through every stage of ageing. This creates a long-term support system where seniors are cared for throughout their later years, something that even well-meaning families often find difficult to guarantee in today’s demanding lifestyles.

India will always remain deeply rooted in family values. But as family structures evolve and modern life becomes increasingly demanding, new models of senior living, assisted living, and retirement communities in India are naturally emerging.

Rather than replacing family care, these communities represent a practical way of preserving dignity, companionship, and quality of life for seniors in a rapidly changing society.

New Delhi [India], March 06: UPL Limited (UPL) filed comprehensive documentation for its Composite Scheme of Arrangement including Joint Valuation Report, Fairness Opinion and FAQs on the its website, following Board approval on February 20, 2026. The company said in its latest filing that it will continue to have revenue streams from Superform (UPL’s specialities chemical arm) and formulations, ensuring that it remains a strategic operating holding entity with significant scale and size. It added that UPL will function as the incubation arm for scaling businesses, besides continuing to house the R&D, formulation supply contracts, etc.

• UPL Limited to remain a strategic operating company with revenue streaming from Superform and formulations
• UPL Limited to continue as the incubation arm for scaling businesses, R&D, formulation supply contracts, etc.

Post restructuring, UPL will continue to accrue revenue from formulation streams as well as the full consolidation of Superform, which reported revenue of more than Rs 10,000 crore and EBITDA of over Rs 1,100 crore in FY25. It added that Superform will continue to remain a wholly owned subsidiary for the foreseeable future. The company also highlighted that its high-margin super-specialty segment continues to grow faster than the broader platform, with growth of more than 25% in the first nine months of FY26 compared with the previous year. Management expects agchem and super-specialty revenue mix to sustainably improve from the current ~75:25 to more equitable proportion, going forward.

It also said, “UPL’s proposed structure is distinct as our holdings operate within a tightly defined ecosystem. This strategic focus allows UPL to leverage deep industry expertise and maintain a cohesive growth strategy, mitigating the complexity discount often seen in diversified industrials. Because UPL’s portfolio is curated for a strategic fit rather than for financial diversification, the market is expected to recognize the compounded value of UPL’s integrated model.”

It also said that UPL will continue to evaluate and incubate new adjacent businesses such as bioethanol, sustainable aviation fuel (SAF), and e-methanol production. Additionally, UPL Limited will continue to directly hold all critical central functions including R&D and treasury, among others which will result in improved synergies between the group entities, apart from a continued financial leverage for the overall group, at a favourable rate of financing.

Shares of UPL have been in focus following a reorganisation earlier this month to integrate its Indian and international crop protection businesses into a new entity, UPL Global, the world’s second-largest listed pure-play crop protection platform. According to UPL, the move is expected to simplify the organisational structure, unlock shareholder value, and sharpen focus on deleveraging by improving operational synergies.

Furthermore, KINEXIN engaged with Korean tour operators and destination management companies attending ITB Berlin to explore hosting multiple Korean corporate events and incentive programs at Yashobhoomi. A formal agreement is expected to be discussed in the near future, signaling growing interest from Korean enterprises in leveraging India as a strategic corporate event destination.

Commenting on the outcomes of ITB Berlin, CEO Phil Chung stated:

Meeting leading global exhibition organizers and DMCs at ITB Berlin has opened significant marketing opportunities for Yashobhoomi. We have clearly felt a strong interest in our venue and, more importantly, growing expectations regarding India’s future role as a global destination.

New Delhi [India], March 05: Thriller movies are well known for their absolute storytelling, tension, suspense and a lot more. These movies not only offer absolute gunshots and fast car chases, but they also bring up silence. Shadows along with it. Kennedy on ZEE5 is the story of a man who is facing insomnia due to his past.

Anurag Kashyap has come up with absolute movies that feel dirty, real and impossible to run away from. If you are willing to watch a movie that is intense, moody and deeply connecting, Kennedy is a movie you must watch. After achieving a huge success in theatres, the movie has finally been released on ZEE5 and is doing really great here as well. Performance of Rahul Bhat, empty streets of Mumbai, and a lot more is there that appears to be quite realistic and touching.

A Man Who Should Be Dead But Isn’t

Kennedy is one of the best new movies on ZEE5 that brings the story of Uday Shetty (Rahul Bhat), who has changed his name to Kennedy after the brutal murder of his son. His young son died in a crossfire that is connected to police corruption. And guess what. Who is behind it? The powerful police commissioner. Along with his son, Uday was also presumed to be dead.

Uday survived the incident, disappeared and came back after some time as Kennedy, a ghost who kills people for money and was eagerly waiting for his real target. The best thing about the movie is that it moves between two timelines. Uday Shetty, a dedicated police officer, has been transformed into a contract killer, Kennedy now. He can’t sleep. In fact, insomnia keeps him up and forces him to relive the night his son died.

The entry of a mysterious woman changed Charlie’s life completely. She is the woman who listens to Kennedy and feels his pain without judging him. The silence and emotions in the movie speak loudly and make the audience feel the pain. The streets of Mumbai appear to be quite empty and haunting after lockdown, and that serves to be the perfect backdrop for a man who is alive but not living.

Rahul Bhat Owns Every Frame in Kennedy on ZEE5

Rahul Bhat has made a very strong entry as Kennedy in the movie. His performance makes the audience feel the pain of the man who has lost his son. Kennedy is a tired, broken and dangerous man in the movie.

Charlie (Sunny Leone) is the woman who becomes the real and only connection of Rahul Bhat. Her presence brings up strength and warmth to the story. The scenes of both together bring emotions to the story.

Chandan’s (Abhilash Thapliyal) performance in the movie is quite short and powerful. Mohit Takalkar and Megha Burman also spellbind the audience through their powerful performances.

Anurag Kashyap and Team Build a Perfect Mood in the New Movie

Anurag Kashyap masters in creating thriller movies. He has landed a story this time that connects with the audience till the end. He masters the genre and knows how to make silence feel loud. Cinematographer Sylvester Fonseca has perfectly captured the absolute essence of Mumbai in different scenes where every frame appears to be quite heavy.

Editors Tanya Chhabria and Deepak Kattar have also tried to keep the pace of the story quite slow and deliberate. The music by Aamir Aziz and Ashish Narula is quite minimal and haunting, and gives the touch of Uday’s insomnia perfectly. The lockdown situation in Mumbai has been captured perfectly. Empty streets, dim streetlights give the feel of realism and mirror the life of Kennedy perfectly.

Why Does Kennedy on ZEE5 Feel Different From Other Thrillers?

Where most of the thriller movies rush towards the big reveal, Kennedy on ZEE5 takes its time and offers a story that is unique and refreshing. It is a neo-noir style story that reminds the audience of the old classics. The makers of the movie have tried to give the absolute essence of the Indian soul, where we can see corruption protecting the powerful persons, the grief of a father who turns into a killer.

The violence in the movie appears to be quite brutal, but it is never glorified. The makers of the movie have designed the different scenes in such a way that it makes the audience feel Kennedy’s pain, grief and tragedy.

The Thrill of a Broken Man’s Revenge

The story of the Kennedy movie on ZEE5 revolves around the internal fight of Uday. The story of the movie beautifully presents how he becomes a ghost in his own life and presumed to be dead. The thriller moments of the movie are quite sharp and appear to be realistic. Charlie is also a powerful character in the movie who has landed up as a person who understands Uday and listens to him and feels his pain.

Discover Kennedy Among New Movies on ZEE5

Kennedy on ZEE5 is a perfect watch for everyone willing to enjoy an absolutely fresh take on thriller movies. It is a dark, slow and heavy movie that keeps the audience on the edge of their seats till the end. The performance of Rahul Bhat and the direction of Anurag Kashyap together spell magic on the audience. It is a perfect late-night watch to be enjoyed with your family and friends.

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], March 03: KLIP has entered India’s digital entertainment space with the launch of a micro-drama platform built for mobile-first audiences across the country. The platform is positioning itself as a snackable entertainment app aimed at viewers who increasingly engage with stories in short, intentional viewing moments rather than extended sessions.

The launch is rooted in the company’s attempt to bridge a widening gap in digital viewing behaviour, between the chaos of unstructured, unintentional short-form content binging and the commitment required by long-form OTT series. While short-video platforms encourage endless scrolling without narrative payoff, traditional streaming formats often demand sustained time and attention, leaving many viewers caught between the two extremes.

KLIP is seeking to address this shift through episodic fiction designed specifically for mobile viewing. Its shows are structured as two-minute episodes with clear narrative progression, offering continuity and emotional engagement without requiring long viewing commitments. The format is intended to retain the discipline of serialised storytelling while adapting to fragmented consumption patterns.

The platform’s approach is shaped by its founders’ background in long-form storytelling rather than technology-led distribution. KLIP has been founded by Bollywood producer-actor Harman Baweja and filmmaker Vicky Bahri, along with Dev Gupta, who leads marketing and growth. The company positions itself as a content-first platform, with an emphasis on narrative structure, scripting and production discipline, an approach it argues is often missing in volume-driven short-form ecosystems.

“Storytelling works best when it aligns with how people actually live and consume content today,” said Vicky Bahri, founder and CEO of KLIP. “Audiences still want characters and stories they can invest in, but the format has to respect their time. That balance is what we are building at KLIP.”

Accessibility remains central to the platform’s positioning. Dev Gupta describes KLIP as “Premium quality drama, priced like your daily chai”, combining production values typically associated with premium drama and formats designed for a wider, mass-market audience.

By focusing on short episodic storytelling, mobile-native design and mass accessibility, KLIP is positioning itself as a Bharat-first alternative within India’s expanding digital entertainment landscape. As viewing behaviour continues to fragment, platforms that balance narrative intent with convenience may play an increasingly important role in shaping how Indian audiences consume stories on their phones.

Chennai (Tamil Nadu) [India], March 03: The SAT & TOEFL Olympiad 2025 has concluded with the rollout of student outcomes and learning benefits, offering a national snapshot of how Indian school students performed against globally recognised academic benchmarks. Designed as an early readiness assessment, the Olympiad enabled students to experience the rigour of international tests while gaining clarity on their academic standing, strengths, and future pathways.

Students from across India participated in the Olympiad, representing diverse educational backgrounds and schooling systems. More than 250 schools, spanning CBSE, ICSE/ISC, IB, IGCSE, Cambridge, State Boards, and home-school networks, took part, positioning the Olympiad as a broad-based academic benchmarking initiative rather than competitiveranking exercise.

Performance outcomes reflected encouraging academic depth. 20% of participating students scored 1400 or above on the SAT, while 4% achieved scores of 1500+, placing them within the top national percentile and demonstrating readiness for globally benchmarked undergraduate pathways.

Among participating institutions, select schools, including DPS Faridabad, Loyola School Trivandrum, Chettinad Hari Shree Vidyalayam Chennai, and Srinidhi International School, saw multiple students record strong outcomes, highlighting the role schools play in supporting early exposure to international academic standards. Regionally, students from South India demonstrated particularly strong performance, while schools across North India contributed meaningfully to participation and results, reflecting widening national interest in global academic readiness.

Beyond test scores, the Olympiad focused on student learning and insight. Participants received structured performance feedback and exposure to the format and expectations of internationally recognised assessments such as the SAT and TOEFL. High-performing students further accessed scholarship-linked enrichment, mentorship, and guidance opportunities through partner programmes, supporting informed academic planning rather than test preparation alone.

Reflecting on the experience, a representative from DPS Faridabad said: “The SAT & TOEFL Olympiad provided our students with a valuable opportunity to experience globally benchmarked assessments in a structured and motivating environment. It helped them gain early clarity on international testing standards, build confidence through real performance feedback, and explore meaningful academic and scholarship-linked opportunities. We value the exposure and enrichment this platform has offered our students.”

A parent of a participating student from Chettinad Hari Shree Vidyalayam, Chennai, said: “As a parent, the Olympiad offered valuable insight into where my child stands academically in a global context. The experience went beyond scores — it provided clarity, confidence, and access to guidance and scholarship opportunities that helped us think more clearly about future academic choices.”

The SAT & TOEFL Olympiad was conceived to give Indian school students early exposure to globally recognisedassessments while supporting learning through mentorship and enrichment. Delivered in collaboration with knowledge and enrichment partners including ETS, Krea University, Lumiere Education, Makers Asylum, and ROAM, the Olympiad connects assessment with insight, opportunity, and academic growth.

Building on the 2025 edition, the SAT & TOEFL Olympiad will continue as a national academic initiative, enabling greater participation from students in regions that were previously underrepresented or unable to participate. The next edition of the Olympiad is scheduled for July 2026.

New Delhi [India], March 03: Sankshay Babber has called upon all state governments to adopt Project Man’s Best Friend (MBF)—a National Public Safety & Governance Mission designed to permanently resolve India’s dog–human conflict while unlocking a ₹15,000+ Crore regulated canine economy and creating lakhs of jobs.

MBF treats the issue not as a stray menace, but as a governance and economic opportunity. The model integrates identification, 80%+ vaccination coverage, sterilisation tracking, behaviour monitoring, and structured deployment of community dogs into a single accountable system.

Under MBF, existing animal pounds will be transformed into government-owned animal hospitals and trauma units—boosting sterilisation capacity, expanding veterinary employment, and generating sustainable state revenue. A centralized mobile app will allow municipalities and feeders to collaboratively track sterilisation, feeding zones, health checks, behavioural reports, geotagged databases, microchipping, and adoption drives.

The framework proposes freelancing sterilisation to accredited private medical centres, training society dogs into security assets, deploying therapy dogs in hospitals, implementing reflective collaring of dogs and cattle to reduce road accidents, and incentivising Indie dog adoption while introducing structured taxation on foreign breeds.

By shifting from removal-based policies to regulated coexistence, MBF aims to reduce bite incidents, eliminate rabies risk, restore civic order, and build a self-sustaining humane governance system.

“Our country has been an animal loving nation with root examples in our Gods having half animal forms and worshipping animals, I plan on worshipping our roots and following the paths our ancestors did to make a better animal human relationship through MBF”.

Supriya Pathak honoured with the Empowerment Through Entertainment Icon West award at Grihshobha Inspire Awards 2026

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], March 03: Grihshobha magazine, India’s leading women-centric publication from the house of Delhi Press, successfully hosted the Grihshobha Inspire Awards 2026 – Mumbai Edition at the prestigious National Centre for the Performing Arts (NCPA), Mumbai, on 26th February 2026.

New Delhi [India], March 03: Social media is no longer just a branding tool. For many businesses, it has become the primary channel for visibility, audience engagement, and customer acquisition. Whether it is a startup trying to build recognition or an established company protecting its digital presence, everyone is competing for attention online.

But gaining attention today is not easy.

Organic reach has declined across major platforms. Algorithms prioritize momentum. Millions of posts are uploaded every hour. In such a competitive environment, businesses are actively looking for structured solutions like an smm panel to support their digital growth strategy.

The conversation is shifting from “how to post more” to “how to perform better.”

The Algorithm-Driven Landscape

Modern social media platforms rely heavily on algorithmic systems. These systems measure early engagement signals such as likes, shares, comments, watch time, and interaction speed.

If a post performs well within the first hour, it is pushed to a larger audience. If engagement is slow, visibility drops quickly.

This dynamic has created a performance gap. Even strong content can struggle if it fails to gain early traction. Marketing teams now understand that success depends not only on quality but also on timing and distribution.

That is where a professional smm panel becomes part of the strategy. It helps ensure posts receive structured engagement support during critical launch windows.

Why the Demand for the Best SMM Panel Is Growing

As competition increases, businesses are becoming selective. They no longer choose services randomly. Instead, they search for the best smm panel that offers reliability, safety, and operational transparency.

Several key factors influence this decision:

Reliability and Consistency

Campaigns are planned carefully. Delays in delivery can disrupt product launches or promotions. A dependable platform ensures that engagement support aligns with marketing timelines.

Natural Growth Patterns

Sudden spikes can harm credibility. Businesses prefer controlled and gradual growth that aligns with organic audience expansion.

Multi-Platform Support

Brands are active on Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, Facebook, Telegram, and more. Managing engagement across all platforms from one dashboard increases efficiency.

Reporting and Analytics

Agencies especially require performance tracking. Clear data builds client trust.

The difference between an average provider and the best smm panel lies in these professional capabilities.

Agencies Are Leading the Shift

Digital marketing agencies face intense pressure to show measurable results. Clients expect numbers — follower growth, engagement rates, and increased visibility.

Posting content alone is no longer enough.

Agencies combine creative production, paid advertisements, influencer collaborations, and structured engagement systems. An organized smm panel allows them to stabilize performance during high-traffic campaigns.

Within the industry, platforms such as TNT SMM are often discussed among agencies as part of a broader digital support system that complements content marketing efforts.

The goal is not artificial growth. It is performance management.

Small Businesses Are Entering the Space

This trend is not limited to large agencies. Small businesses are also adopting these systems.

For a new brand, first impressions matter. A social profile with low engagement may appear inactive or untrusted. Customers often judge credibility within seconds.

An smm panel can help new businesses create initial momentum. When a profile looks active, real users are more likely to interact.

This psychological effect is powerful in digital commerce. Social proof influences purchasing behavior more than ever before.

Strategic Integration, Not Random Orders

The market has matured significantly. Brands are no longer placing random orders. Instead, they integrate engagement support into campaign planning.

For example:

● During a product launch, early engagement is scheduled.

● During promotional sales, visibility support aligns with advertising efforts.

● During collaborations, momentum is maintained across multiple posts.

This structured approach makes campaigns more predictable.

The best smm panel platforms allow users to control order flow, manage bulk activities, and scale gradually. Businesses see these tools as operational support systems rather than quick fixes.

Content Still Matters

Despite the rise of structured growth tools, one truth remains clear: content quality cannot be ignored.

Audiences recognize value. They engage with storytelling, authenticity, and useful information. Without strong content, engagement numbers cannot sustain long-term success.

However, even the best content needs exposure.

Many digital strategists compare social media to broadcasting. A powerful message must be amplified to reach the right audience. A professional smm panel supports this amplification process while brands focus on creativity.

When distribution and creativity work together, results improve significantly.

Market Outlook for 2026 and Beyond

Industry analysts predict continued expansion in social media marketing investment. Businesses are allocating larger portions of their budgets to digital growth.

As the market evolves, expectations are rising. Clients demand transparency, account safety, and measurable performance.

The definition of the best smm panel is also evolving. It is no longer about price competition alone. Stability, security, and scalability are becoming the deciding factors.

Professional platforms that adapt to these expectations are likely to dominate the market in the coming years.

Choosing the Right Partner

Before selecting a platform, businesses should evaluate several criteria:

● Does it offer controlled delivery speeds?

● Is multi-platform management available?

● Are reporting features accessible?

● Is customer support responsive?

● Does the growth pattern appear natural?

A thoughtful evaluation process reduces risks and increases long-term effectiveness.

Some digital professionals highlight platforms like TNT SMM as examples of how the industry is moving toward structured, scalable engagement systems designed to meet agency-level demands.

Final Perspective

Social media competition is not slowing down. Algorithms are becoming stricter. Content saturation continues to grow. Attention spans are shrinking.

Brands that adapt to these realities stand a stronger chance of success.

An organized smm panel is no longer viewed as optional. For many businesses, it is part of a modern digital toolkit that supports consistent growth and visibility management.

However, sustainable success always depends on balance — combining strong creative strategy with reliable engagement infrastructure.

Those who carefully select the best smm panel and integrate it into a broader marketing framework are better prepared to compete in today’s high-pressure digital environment.

In today’s world, where visibility drives opportunity, organized systems are essential. Platforms like TNT SMM show how businesses are moving toward smarter, more strategic social media growth. tntsmm.in is the best SMM panel for reliable and scalable engagement.

Ahmedabad (Gujarat) [India], March 03: What happens when Ahmedabad’s most enthusiastic food lovers, creators, and tastemakers gather under one roof to honour flavour? A night that crackled with energy and appetite. After unforgettable editions in Mumbai and Pune, the ELLE Gourmet food crawl arrived at Palladium Ahmedabad with a spirited momentum that turned the city’s largest F&B destination into a vibrant culinary playground.

With more than 50 dining outlets spread across the mall, the evening unfolded as a progressive feast through eight standout restaurants. The ELLE Gourmet India X Palladium Ahmedabad Food Crawl had over 70 guests check in, mingle, click photos, and embrace the excitement of exploring the city’s most dynamic flavours together.

The Food Trails

FOO set the tone as the meeting point for all three groups, a lively start where anticipation built over the clink of glasses, warm greetings and Pan-Asian bites, and ended with flavourful Indian dishes at Ishaara. Once assembled, guests split into colour-coded groups led by three spirited hosts who each brought their own flavour to the experience: Aishwarya Sonvane, Home Chef & Content Creator, Kriti Dhiman, Chef, Entrepreneur & Content Creator and Suril Udeshi, Restaurant Consultant. What followed was an exuberant trail, each route revealing different sides of Ahmedabad’s ever-evolving dining landscape.

Trail One With Aishwarya Sonvane

The first trail kicked off at FOO, where contemporary Asian tapas set an upbeat rhythm. From there, the trail moved to Punjab Grill, where the beloved Palak Patta Chaat brought crunch and nostalgia to the table. At Jamie Oliver Kitchen, the Mushroom Pizza drew nods of approval with its hearty comfort. The finale unfolded at Ishaara, where guests enjoyed the expressive service and rich flavours, anchored by the crowd favourite Lahori Paneer Tikka.

Trail Two With Kriti Dhiman

Kriti’s crew began their journey at FOO, soaking in the warm, umami-rich bites before heading to Cream Centre, where the iconic Original ChannaBhatura delivered a taste of pure culinary heritage. Next came Cha, introducing guests to the colourful “Cha” Vegetable Futomaki Roll, a playful nod to Japanese influences.

Trail Three With Suril Udeshi

Suril led the third group through a route that balanced comfort with discovery. After their energetic start at FOO, the group headed to Burma Burma, where the signature Samosa Soup and Silkroute Sundae added depth and soul to the evening. At Café Allora, the Classic Tomato Bruschetta and Tiramisu sparked instant excitement.

A Night That Ended In Style

As all groups completed their trails, they merged once again in the buzzing atrium of Palladium Ahmedabad. Conversations flowed naturally as guests compared favourites, revisited standout dishes, snapped final pictures, and continued exploring the space long after the structured routes ended.

What emerged was a sense of collective joy, a celebration of craft, connection, and shared discovery. In its Ahmedabad edition, the ELLE Gourmet Food Crawl did more than highlight great food; it showcased a community united by curiosity and flavour and we gave them the perfect night to celebrate flavour in style.

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], March 02: Marking a significant moment in its journey, PPP Production House has announced an ambitious slate of five feature films at a grand industry event in the city.

The new facility substantially increases Supreme Power Equipment Limited’s manufacturing bandwidth by enabling the production of higher voltage and larger MVA-rated transformers, positioning the company to cater to more complex and large-scale power infrastructure projects.

The expansion involves an investment of approximately ₹100 Crand above, covering the establishment of infrastructure, advanced manufacturing capabilities, and supporting facilities for high-capacity transformer production. The project is funded through a combination of IPO proceeds, internal accruals, debt, and proceeds from a preferential issue, ensuring a balanced and diversified financing structure.

The capacity augmentation is strategically aligned with growing demand in the power transmission and distribution sector. The expansion is expected to enable execution of larger MVA contracts, strengthen revenue visibility over the medium term, and support sustained business growth by addressing increasing requirements from utilities, industrial customers, and infrastructure projects.

With the commissioning of this new manufacturing unit, Supreme Power Equipment Limited reinforces its operational scale, technological capability, and market readiness to serve evolving power sector requirements, while supporting long-term growth and improved competitiveness in the transformer manufacturing segment.

Commenting on the commencement of operations at the new facility, Mr. Vee Rajmohan, Chairman and Managing Director of Supreme Power Equipment Limited, said “The commencement of commercial operations at our new manufacturing facility marks an important milestone in Supreme Power Equipment Limited’s growth journey. This expansion has been undertaken with a clear strategic focus on strengthening our capabilities in manufacturing higher-capacity and higher-voltage power transformers. The new unit significantly enhances our manufacturing bandwidth, enabling us to address larger MVA requirements and participate in more complex power transmission and infrastructure projects.

The investment reflects our long-term commitment to meeting the evolving needs of the power sector and supporting growing demand from utilities and industrial customers. By expanding into transformers up to 200 MVA and 220 kV, we are positioning the company for sustained growth, improved revenue visibility, and enhanced operational scalability. This facility reinforces our focus on future-ready manufacturing and aligns with our objective of building a stronger, more resilient business platform over the medium to long term.”

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], March 02: India’s wellness economy is no longer being shaped inside clinics. It is being shaped inside office cabins, factory floors, and late-night work calls. The cost of India’s hustle culture is now showing up not just in burnout conversations, but in falling energy levels, early-onset deficiencies, and productivity losses that cannot be addressed through quick fixes. For companies, health has quietly become an economic variable.

For decades, the corporate world’s approach to wellness was reactive. Nutrition and supplements entered the picture only after a diagnosis, a prescription, or a visible health concern. Clinics have always been effective at treating illness, but they were never designed to address the depletion of essential nutrients, low energy levels, and mental stress caused by long working hours, chronic stress, and poor diet.

As work patterns became longer, faster, and more demanding, a clear gap emerged between being medically “healthy” and having the energy, focus, and stamina to function well at work. Traditional healthcare stepped in when people fell sick, but had little to offer for preventing this slow, ongoing decline in everyday performance and wellbeing.

Corporate wellness initiatives in the past did attempt to bridge this gap, but for many years their impact remained limited. Annual health check-ups, gym discounts, or motivational webinars looked good on paper but did little to change long term health outcomes. Employees continued to skip meals, sit for long hours, and rely on quick fixes. The result was a system that talked about wellbeing without actually improving it.

This is where the shift becomes disruptive rather than gradual. Organisations are now realising that preventive health cannot sit outside the workspace. It has to fit into it. Nutrition, especially, is emerging as a practical lever.

Functional foods and nutraceuticals are filling this gap because they operate between clinical care and lifestyle habits. They are structured enough to deliver measurable outcomes, yet simple enough to be used daily without medical supervision. This is the space where a new age company named, Voll Sante has positioned itself in, with a clear focus on “food as medicine” and formulation-led outcomes rather than generic supplementation.

Instead of broad, one-size-fits-all products, Voll Sante has launched plant-based products that are differentiated, unique, nutrient combinations, and offer better side effect profiles than conventional nutraceuticals which might contain constituents from unnatural sources. Voll Sante’s calcium supplementation, Calgal Plus, for instance, is designed to address some of the most common drawbacks of conventional calcium supplements – low absorption and unnatural sources like rocks, bones and shells, thus making Calgal Plus a smarter choice for working professionals, women and elderly.

But plant-based Calcium supplement is only one part of their wider portfolio. Voll Sante has expanded into plant-based phyto-nutraceuticals, a differentiated protein range, oil-filled capsule portfolio, healthy millet-based snacks, and condition-specific formulations that align with metabolic health, bone strength, women’s wellness, and long-term nutritional balance. These categories reflect a deeper understanding of how modern lifestyles strain the body in multiple ways, not just one.

As corporate wellness matures, companies are moving away from symbolic initiatives toward solutions that employees can realistically follow. Products that require minimal behaviour change but deliver consistent nutritional support are seeing greater adoption. This has led to Voll Sante being integrated into employee wellbeing programmes, particularly where organisations are looking for credible, research-informed options rather than just wellness “add-ons.”

Another factor accelerating this shift is transparency. Today’s workforce is more informed and more sceptical. Employees want to know what they are consuming, how it works at a physiological level, and whether there is evidence behind the claim. Brands that communicate clearly – using the language of science without exaggeration – are building stronger trust with both individuals and employers.

The movement from clinics to corporates reflects a larger redefinition of health in India. Wellness is no longer viewed only as recovery from illness. It is being treated as an enabler of performance, focus, and resilience. For employers, this reframes health from a cost centre to a productivity metric. For employees, it integrates wellbeing into daily routines rather than post-crisis interventions.

As India’s wellness economy grows, the winners will be those who address real, everyday health gaps – absorption failures, nutritional fatigue, and lifestyle-driven deficiencies – without overcomplicating the solution. Voll Sante’s approach signals where the market is heading: clinically informed, easy to adopt, and built for the realities of modern work.

The message is becoming hard to ignore. Health is no longer confined to hospitals or annual reports. It is now embedded in how India works. And in this new reality, wellness is not a perk – it is part of economic performance.

Shaleen Toshniwal, Chairman – MATEXIL

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], March 02: “The abrupt and unexpected reduction in the RoDTEP rates and the notified value caps for all HS lines by 50% has come as a big surprise and a huge shock for the exporters,” said Shaleen Toshniwal, Chairman of MATEXIL (Manmade and Technical Textiles Export Promotion Council).

The DGFT (Directorate General of Foreign Trade) has reduced RoDTEP rates and the notified value caps for all HS lines by 50% vide Notification No. 60/2025-26 dated February 23, 2026.

“The implementation of this notification with immediate effect will have an adverse impact on exports of manmade fibre textiles and technical textiles, as it will significantly affect their competitiveness,” said  Shri Toshniwal .

The RoDTEP (Remission of Duties and Taxes on Exported Products) scheme was introduced with the objective of neutralizing embedded central, state, and local taxes and levies—including prior-stage cumulative indirect taxes on goods and services used in the production and distribution of exported products—that are not otherwise refunded or credited and remain embedded in export goods.

“At a crucial juncture, when exporters are passing through unprecedented challenges, turbulence &  uncertainty in global markets and are finding it difficult to sustain operations, this reduction has further aggravated their problems,” the MATEXIL Chairman added.

Shri Toshniwal further pointed out that the RoDTEP Committee constituted by the Government is presently reviewing the existing RoDTEP rates and  while this review exercise is underway, the unexpected reduction has caused serious concern and uncertainty among exporters of manmade fibre textiles and technical textiles.

He urged the Government to reinstate the original RoDTEP rates and value caps and continue with the same until the revised rates are formally notified.

New Delhi [India], March 02: Holi is one of the most joyful festivals we celebrate. Colors, laughter, family gatherings, it’s a beautiful time of the year. But as a dermatologist, I also know what happens in the days after Holi?

Every year, my clinic sees an increase in patients with skin rashes, itching, acne flare-ups, hair damage, and pigmentation. Most of these issues are preventable with simple precautions. Let me guide you on how to enjoy Holi without harming your skin.

Why Holi Colors Can Be Harmful?

Many commercially available colors are not skin-friendly. They may contain synthetic dyes, chemicals, and sometimes even heavy metals. These ingredients can: Trigger allergic reactions. Cause redness and irritation, Worsen acne Lead to dark patches and pigmentation, Make hair extremely dry and brittle. If you already have sensitive skin, eczema, acne, or pigmentation issues, you need to be extra cautious.

What You Should Do Before Playing Holi ?

Prevention is always better than treatment. Apply oil generously, Use coconut oil or almond oil on your face, body, and especially your hair. It forms a protective layer and makes it easier to remove colors later, Use sunscreen, Apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen (SPF 30 or above) at least 20 minutes before stepping out. Sun exposure combined with colors can worsen pigmentation, Wear protective clothing Full sleeves, covered legs, and tied hair reduce direct contact with colors, Protect your lips and nails, Apply lip balm and a coat of nail paint to prevent staining.

After Holi: How to Clean Your Skin Safely?

Many people make the mistake of scrubbing hard to remove colors. This actually damages the skin barrier. Use lukewarm water, not hot water, Choose a mild cleanser instead of harsh soaps, Do not use scrubs immediately after Holi, Apply a soothing moisturizer or aloe vera gel, Use a deep conditioning mask for your hair,

If you notice persistent itching, swelling, rashes, or unusual pigmentation, consult a qualified dermatologist instead of trying home remedies.

Who Should Be Extra Careful?

Individuals undergoing chemical peel or laser treatments,Patients using retinol or active acne medications, People with melasma or sensitive skin, Young children

In such cases, it may be better to avoid harsh colors altogether.

My Final Advice 

Festivals should create memories not skin problems that last for months. Choose safe, skin-friendly colors whenever possible. Prepare your skin before stepping out, and treat it gently afterward. Healthy skin requires care and consistency. One day of negligence can lead to weeks of recovery. Celebrate responsibly. Protect your skin. And enjoy a safe, happy Holi.

Chandigarh [India], March 02: In a world where beauty standards are constantly evolving, Muskan Arora is proving that confidence has no size. A proud resident of Delhi and a successful banker by profession, Muskan recently earned the prestigious title of Maven Ms India Photogenic at the renowned Maven Ms Plus Size India, held in Chandigarh.

Her journey in the pageant was not just about winning a crown — it was about embracing self-love, challenging stereotypes, and inspiring women to step into their power unapologetically.

A Journey of Strength and Self-Belief

Muskan credits her biggest support system to her family and especially to director of maven production Hardeep Arora, whose encouragement and belief gave her the platform to showcase her talent and confidence. With their unwavering support, she stepped onto the stage not just as a contestant, but as a woman determined to represent change.

Balancing her professional life as a banker with her passion for modeling, Muskan has demonstrated that women can successfully pursue multiple dreams without compromise.

More Than a Model — A Role Model

For Muskan, this achievement is only the beginning. Her future goal is clear — to grow not just as a model, but as a role model. She aims to break stereotypes around body image and prove that beauty is not defined by size, but by confidence and authenticity.

Through plus-size modeling and pageantry, she aspires to inspire women to embrace themselves fully and chase their dreams without waiting to fit into society’s unrealistic standards. She believes that true success is not just about wearing a crown, but about becoming a voice for those who need encouragement.

Her Message to Women Everywhere

Muskan shares a powerful message for every plus-size woman:

“You are not ‘too much’. You were never ‘less’.

Your body is not a limitation — it’s your strength.

Wear what you love. Take up space. Walk with confidence.

Beauty doesn’t come in one size — and neither does confidence.

We are bold. We are powerful. We are unstoppable.”

Gratitude to the Pageant Team

Expressing heartfelt gratitude, Muskan thanked the Maven team for believing in her and helping her transform into a stronger, more confident version of herself. She described the journey as more than just a competition — it was a life-changing experience filled with learning, growth, and empowerment.

With grace, ambition, and a powerful purpose, Muskan Arora is not just wearing a crown — she is carrying a message. And that message is clear: confidence has no size, and every woman deserves to shine.

New Delhi [India], February 28: India’s latest economic punch came not with a whisper but with a headline: GDP growth clocked in at 7.8 percent for the December quarter (Q3 FY26), according to fresh data released under a revamped methodology. This figure doesn’t just look good on paper. It says that, bizarrely enough, even when the world’s economic engines are sputtering, India’s growth machine still hums, running on fuel that’s equal parts factory output, consumer demand, and good old economic resilience.

Let’s just get this straight: 7.8 percent is no joke. It’s a number that puts India firmly in the top tier among major global economies in terms of growth. And yeah, even though it’s a tad lower than the 8.4 percent growth posted in the previous quarter, in a world where advanced economies are limping around the 1.3 to 2.2 percent mark, this is not shabby at all.

But here’s the real twist: the growth rate comes from a completely overhauled GDP calculation framework. The Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation (MoSPI) switched the base year for GDP from 2011-12 to 2022-23, reworking the entire statistical scaffolding to better reflect how the Indian economy actually operates today. That means new data sources, updated price indices, and a broader economic base are pulling this report’s strings.

Why India’s GDP number matters right now

Okay, I’ll be real, a GDP number is a dry concept. But it matters because this one tells you something very specific: India is still growing, and it’s growing in a way that’s backed by real activity, not statistical smoke and mirrors. Factories aren’t just idling. Services aren’t just headlines. People are buying, selling, building, and consuming, and that shows up in the numbers.

Let’s break it down:

Right now, the economy is riding on three main engines:

• Manufacturing: This sector flexed double-digit muscle this quarter, which means factories are not just spinning wheels; they’re actually adding value.

• Services: Think trade, transport, and hospitality. People spending, people moving. This sector kept the momentum alive.

• Consumption: When households keep buying stuff, food, gadgets, travel — that feeds back into growth.

Yeah, there’s a slight slowdown from Q2’s blistering pace. But at 7.8 percent, India still beats most peers hands down. That’s the sort of stat that’ll make any analyst raise an eyebrow and say, “Hmm… tell me more.”

Now, before we get carried away, there is a small caveat. The nominal GDP estimate — basically GDP in current price terms — is down after the revision. That means the size of the pie isn’t as large as it was thought to be earlier. The revised GDP for FY26 is now estimated at around ₹345 lakh crore, potentially pushing back India’s $4 trillion nominal economy milestone by a bit.

So what does all this actually mean?

Let’s be blunt: numbers like these don’t come from fairy dust. They come from real economic activity — people at factories, services expanding, consumers spending. But the set-up matters too. India rejigged the way it measures the economy, and that’s not trivial. It means the data now aims to be more honest, more current, and more reflective of how business really happens in 2026, not 2011.

Here’s the deal:

When you change how you measure something, you risk being accused of cooking the books. But this change isn’t shallow. It incorporates new data streams, such as GST returns, updated consumption patterns, and refined price indices. That’s not spin. That’s progression in statistical science.

And yes, there’s talk about how the timing of this revision might affect perceptions — old comparisons get messy, but the core takeaway is that India’s growth remains robust, solidly ahead of most advanced economies, and underpinned by actual output and spending, not just guesswork.

If you love numbers like a Stark loves tech or Musk loves disruption, here’s the kicker: this growth comes despite global uncertainties and external pressures, including tariff shocks and currency market gyrations. That’s not just resilience, that’s swagger.

What’s next on the growth runway

Forecasts now pin FY26 growth at around 7.6 percent, slightly higher than earlier expectations. And for FY27, economists are looking at somewhere between 7 and 7.4 percent, indicating that the powerful engine of India’s economy isn’t cooling off anytime soon.

This isn’t a hype-driven rally flag. It’s a measured climb based on real structural strength manufacturing that’s actually producing, consumers who are spending, and a services sector that stays relevant in the global landscape.

So yeah, call it bullish if you want. Call it data-driven confidence. But when you see a GDP print like this, accurate, revised, and resilient, you’ve gotta give it its due. India’s economic story still has plenty of steam left.

PNN National

New Delhi [India], February 28: India and the European Union just delivered a solid dose of business certainty, they’re going to treat each other as Most Favoured Nation (MFN) for the next five years as part of the long-awaited free trade agreement. And yeah, this is actually a big deal for exporters, importers, and anyone who cares about reliable, non-political business news.

Let’s break down what this means, why it matters right now, and how it’s going to shape India’s role in global trade, all in plain terms, no jargon, no fluff.

What “Most Favoured Nation” Really Means

First off, the MFN status isn’t just buzzwords. It’s a straight-up trade commitment that says: if India or the EU gives better tariff treatment to another country, they must offer that same treatment to each other — for five years once the agreement’s in effect. That’s a stability promise, not a short-term gamble.

So, practically, if Brussels signs a sweetheart deal tomorrow with another trading partner and offers them lower import costs, India gets the same deal. And vice versa. That means no sudden tariff surprises, no last-minute curveballs, and that’s the kind of certainty business folks crave.

In trade lingo, MFN is a core principle of the World Trade Organization. It’s meant to avoid discrimination but locking it in bilaterally for five years is extra reassurance that both sides mean stable, predictable commerce.

Why It’s a Big Win for Business

Okay, this part deserves some hype — not hype as in irrational excitement, but “this actually matters” energy.

India and the EU represent a massive chunk of the global economy when you put them together — four billion people, trillions in combined GDP, and millions of businesses trading goods and services. And granting each other MFN status is like agreeing to play by the same set of rules for five solid years. That’s stability, and businesses like stability more than flashy headlines.

Exporters across textiles, leather, handicrafts, gems and jewellery, and chemicals will feel this. Why? Because duty predictability means they can plan production, negotiate contracts, and commit to markets with more confidence. No guesswork. No “will this change in six months?” anxiety.

Even services, businesses, IT consultancies, engineering firms, and finance providers get a clearer path to operate in the EU market, since they’ll be treated no worse than any other nation’s firms in tariff terms.

And let’s be honest, predictability beats volatility. Anyone who’s ever tried to plan a budget while tariffs flip-flop in global trade knows exactly what I mean.

What the Deal Includes: Beyond MFN

But the pact isn’t just about this five-year tariff commitment.

Both sides have agreed not to impose new import or export restrictions beyond existing WTO rules. That’s essentially a no-shock pact: you can’t spring something on me that’s outside agreed global standards.

There’s also talk in the draft about cutting red tape, aligning certification standards, and streamlining customs clearance — which could mean goods move faster across borders without unnecessary hold-ups.

On the digital trade front, India and the EU have agreed to cooperate on making online transactions smoother, safer, and more predictable — not just physical goods crossing borders but digital services, too.

So What Happens Next?

Here’s the realistic timeline: the deal has been draft-released, which means the framework is public, the commitments are laid out, and businesses can already start planning. But it still needs ratification in both regions, formal approval in India and EU member states, before it’s legally binding.

Once that’s done, the MFN treatment and other trade provisions will kick in. The hope is that the pact is operational by early 2027, giving businesses time to line up logistics, contracts, and market strategies based on this new certainty.

What Business Leaders Are Saying

There hasn’t been a coordinated press tour yet, but the vibes in the corridors of commerce are good.

Exporters see a clear avenue to bigger markets, importers see predictability in tariff costs, and global analysts see this as a sign that India is doubling down on open trade and cooperation rather than unpredictable tariff battles. That’s good news, given that many economies are oscillating between protectionism and strategic tariff moves.

The Bottom Line

This isn’t a half-baked memorandum. India and the EU agreeing to give each other Most Favoured Nation treatment for five years is a huge signal of business confidence.

It says: let’s keep commerce stable, let’s respect each other’s markets, let’s cut out surprises, and let businesses on both sides know what the rules will be for a good stretch of time.

That’s not just smart business. That’s the kind of deal that gets boardrooms talking confidently and CFOs scratching out worst-case scenarios from their spreadsheets.

And honestly, in a world where trade uncertainty feels almost normal, five years of MFN clarity feels like a breath of fresh air.

Jaipur (Rajasthan) [India], February 28: District 98 of Toastmasters International successfully hosted its landmark Campus to Corporate Conclave, bringing together industry leaders, academia, and emerging talent under one roof to address one critical question: “Where does the campus-to-corporate transition truly break down?”

New Delhi [India], February 28: In the culturally resonant city of Lucknow, where refinement of language and tehzeeb shape intellectual discourse, 68-year-old ‘Videh’ Arvind Kumar stands as a steadfast custodian of disciplined literary commitment. A retired Assistant General Manager of the State Bank of India, he is, in essence, a writer by temperament and conviction — one for whom literature is not a pursuit of momentary acclaim but a lifelong tapasya.

With an impressive corpus of 27 published books — 17 in English and 10 in Hindi — spanning fiction, poetry, drama, translation, and literary commentary, his journey reflects not only productivity but persistence. His long-running English fiction series, Hypocrisy & Reality, comprises nine volumes that probe societal contradictions with unsparing candour. Alongside this, works such as Chambellion (a comedietta), Brainy Beasts (short stories), Bewailing Muse (poetry), and Self-Styled Sovereign, the Judiciary (dramatic deliberation) demonstrate his comfort across genres.

Equally significant is his engagement with literary scholarship. His critical study Nagasaki: Bomb & Aftermath examines A Pale View of Hills by Nobel Laureate Kazuo Ishiguro, while Procreation, the Adorable reinterprets the Shiva Puraan through a contemporary lens. As a translator, he has rendered major Hindi poetic works into English, notably Search for Life and Reality of Invisible, thus bridging linguistic traditions.

His Hindi oeuvre is no less substantial: three short story collections (Anapadh Lipi, Paashaan Yug, Nisarg), three poetry anthologies (Aart Gaan, Kaal Krandan, Ananubhoot Kaal), a drama (Ambedkar Smriti), and scholarly condensations of classical texts including Priya Pravaas and Mahaamuni Vaalmeeki Rachit Itihaas: Ramayan – Uttar Kaand. Through these, he demonstrates a commitment to recontextualising India’s literary heritage for contemporary readers.

The pen name ‘Videh’, suggestive of detachment and transcendence, mirrors the philosophical undercurrent in his writing. His prose is marked by forthrightness — often blunt, always deliberate. Poverty and struggle in childhood, followed by professional success and international exposure, have lent his voice both grit and breadth.

Retirement in 2018 did not diminish his creative output; rather, it intensified it. His works are accessible globally via platforms such as Amazon and Flipkart in eBook, paperback, and hardcover formats — affirming the universality of his themes.

For aspiring writers, his message is resolute: continue writing, irrespective of external validation. Doubt from others is inevitable; perseverance must be intentional. True literary worth, he believes, is not measured by applause but by authenticity of expression.

In an era enamoured of immediacy, ‘Videh’ Arvind Kumar represents the enduring power of sustained reflection. His twenty-seven books are not mere publications; they are milestones of intellectual labour. Through fiction that questions, poetry that mourns, drama that debates, and scholarship that interprets, he has carved a literary space defined by depth rather than display.

His journey reminds us that creative vitality is governed not by age but by intent — and intent, in his case, remains unwavering.

New Delhi [India], February 27: The journey of Hanuman Ansh began at Kainchi Dham, where the film’s poster received its first blessings. Prayers were later offered at his samadhi in Vrindavan, marking an emotional beginning in the very spaces that still carry his presence.

Presented by Swambhu Media Network, the film is a biopic on Sri Neem Karoli Baba, written and directed by Dr. Vishal Chaturvedi and produced by Ragini S, Namrata Singh, and Anupriya A Nagar. Scheduled for a worldwide release in June 2026, the film will be released in Hindi along with Braj and Bundeli, honouring the languages rooted in Maharaj ji’s early life.

Born as Lakshmi Narayan Sharma in Akbarpur, he later came to be lovingly known as Kambal Wale Baba. His ashrams in the Kumaon region of Uttarakhand and across Uttar Pradesh continue to draw seekers from India and around the world.

While earlier works often focused on Western devotees such as Ram Dass, Hanuman Ansh turns its attention to his formative years in India. It explores his childhood, his life as a householder, and the quiet moments that shaped his spiritual path. The team travelled extensively, speaking with families and living witnesses to ensure the story remains authentic and grounded.

The Team Speaks

“Maharajji never delivered a lecture, never showcased a miracle. He changed people in passing. I personally learned surrendering while writing and making this film.”

— Dr. Vishal Chaturvedi, Writer and Director

“I came to Maharajji not looking for anything. That is, I have since learned exactly how he prefers it. When this film came to me, I recognised it the way you recognise something you already knew. There was no decision to make.”

— Ragini S, Producer

“We are accountable to this story in a way that goes beyond craft. Every person on this production knows that. The intention in every frame must match the intention Maharajji brought to every encounter.”

— Namrata Singh, Producer

“I don’t see spirituality as something distant — it is something you live every day. This film reflects the kind of spirituality I believe in, one where love is expressed through action and seva becomes a natural way of life.”

— Anupriya A Nagar, Producer

From the spiritual energy of Kainchi Dham, known globally and visited by people from across the world, including Mark Zuckerberg, to the simplicity of his beginnings, Hanuman Ansh traces the sacred journey of a sant who continues to inspire millions.

The film releases worldwide this June 2026.

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], February 27: Known for her Hindi outings with Qala (2022), Pataallok (2020) and Detective Byomkesh Bakshy! (2015), actor Swastika Mukherjee bags the lead role of an Indo-American Production titled Chheledhora. All set to go on floors on March 1, Chheledhora will be shot across unexplored locations of Itanagar and Ziro in Arunachal Pradesh.

The film will be helmed by Shieladitya Moulik, who is basking in the glory of Surjo, his recent theatrical hit which ran for 11 weeks. Moulik is no stranger to Bollywood, he has directed Mrs. Scooter (2015) and more recently Charak which made waves at Cannes in 2025 and now set to hit the theatres at home.

Chheledhora centres on Brishti, a divorced, deeply-flawed and misunderstood woman played by Mukherjee, who impulsively “steals” her daughter for a birthday celebration, only to find the child abducted for real. Brishti must remedy the situation but adopts the most unconventional approach in a twist of fate which pushes her to a life-altering journey for self-absorbed parents forced to confront their own shortcomings as caretakers.

The film blends emotional family drama with thriller elements and dark humour, positioning itself as a rare Bengali-language road movie anchored by a morally-complex female protagonist. Poised to travel the international film festival circuit upon completion Chheledhora will break language barriers to celebrate the language of cinema.

Speaking about her role an excited Swastika said, “Brishti is not an easy woman to like, and that’s what moved me, she is impulsive, wounded and deeply flawed, but her love for her daughter is instinctive and fierce. I was drawn to the vulnerability in her – the way this unexpected journey forces her to confront herself. At its heart, this is a very tender story about motherhood, forgiveness and finding strength in the most fragile moments.”

Shieladitya Moulik, writer and director said, “Chheledhora is a story about broken parents discovering the courage and selflessness they didn’t know they possessed,” said Moulik. “I’m deeply interested in flawed people who are still capable of love. This film may unfold like a road journey with unexpected twists and turns, but at its heart, it’s about healing — about how children, often unknowingly, become the moral compass for adults. It’s a very intimate story about second chances and rediscovering one’s humanity.”

He added, “I’m really excited to shoot in Arunachal Pradesh. It is not just picturesque but a hub for talented actors and technicians. We have as many as 14- cast crew members from the region. While Arunachal Pradesh is the heart of our film, we have stretched the canvas with an Indo- American production, an Italian cinematographer Vincenzo Condorelli and a strategic international festival run plan”.

Produced by Handyyman (Mumbai) and Sita22 Films (USA/India), Chheledhora marks a notable Indo-American collaboration and further underscores the growing global appetite for rooted regional-language stories with universal emotional stakes.

Before there were patents and billion-dollar supply chains, there was a woman standing outside a headmaster’s office. Every morning. For a year. Shekhar Natarajan is still running the code she wrote.

Hyderabad (Telangana) [India], February 27: The school uniform is plaid — the kind of cheap synthetic fabric that softens with age, that every laundry cycle softens a little more until it starts to look like something worn with love rather than worn out. A hundred children are wearing it on this particular morning in a courtyard of cracked concrete in one of Hyderabad’s underserved settlements. They’ve crowded around a tall man in a white kurta, pressing against his arms, some reaching up to touch his sleeve, the way children everywhere test whether a visitor is real or just passing through.

Shekhar Natarajan, 45, does not look like a man who holds more than seventy patents. He does not look like someone who transformed a $30 million grocery operation into a $5 billion business for Walmart, or who is preparing, in a matter of weeks, to address the World Economic Forum on the future of artificial intelligence. What he looks like, standing in this courtyard, is someone who grew up somewhere very much like this.

Which is, of course, exactly the point.

I. The Founding Investment

There is a specific kind of financial transaction that economists do not study: the pawning of a wedding ring to pay a school fee. It is not venture capital. It is not seed funding. It does not appear in any balance sheet or pitch deck. But Natarajan will tell you, if you ask him the right question, that it is the foundational investment behind everything he has built.

His mother — a woman from South Central India whose name he invokes with a particular quality of stillness — sold her wedding ring for thirty rupees when the family needed to fund his education. Thirty rupees. In today’s money, the kind of amount that wouldn’t buy you a cup of filter coffee in the Hyderabad café district. In the economy of sacrifice, it was everything.

But the money was only the half of it. The other half was time.

“She stood outside the headmaster’s office,” Natarajan says. “Every day. For three hundred and sixty-five days. Not because she had an appointment. Not because she had leverage. Because she had decided that this was where she would stand until something changed.”

He pauses here, in the way of a man who has told this story many times and has still not found words adequate to it.

“I don’t know another word for that except love. That kind of love is not a feeling. It is a technology. It produces outcomes.”

II. The $34 Suitcase

He arrived in America with thirty-four dollars. He does not say this for drama — or not primarily for drama. He says it because he believes it is a data point, evidence in an argument he has been constructing for three decades: that the circumstances of a person’s origin tell you almost nothing about the ceiling of their potential, and that any system — political, institutional, technological — that treats origin as destiny is not just unjust but functionally stupid.

From thirty-four dollars, Natarajan built a career that took him through Georgia Tech, MIT, Harvard Business School, and IESE, and then into senior roles at some of the most recognizable consumer brands in the world. The man who grew up watching his mother stand in a corridor for a year would eventually help architect a logistics transformation at Walmart that moved nine-figure grocery revenues to ten-figure ones. He would contribute to innovation at Disney. He would accumulate patents — over seventy of them — the way some people accumulate degrees.

But the career, as impressive as it is on paper, is not the story he is trying to tell. It is the context for the story he is trying to tell.

“Every system I worked inside,” he says, “was optimizing for the wrong thing. Faster, cheaper, more efficient — yes. But more human? More dignified? That wasn’t in the KPIs. And I kept thinking: we have the most powerful technology in human history, and we’re using it to serve people who are already served.”

III. What Silicon Valley Gets Wrong

The artificial intelligence industry, in Natarajan’s view, has a fundamental architectural flaw — and it is not a technical one.

“The flaw is philosophical,” he says. “Every major AI system is built with ethics as a constraint. You build the system first, optimize it for performance, and then someone in a governance meeting asks: ‘wait, is this fair? Is this safe? Does this harm people?’ And then you bolt on a filter. You put guardrails on the outside.”

He leans forward. This is clearly a distinction that matters to him with almost physical intensity.

“My mother did not put compassion on the outside of her decisions as a filter. It was the decision. The love was the architecture, not the guardrail. That is what I am trying to build.”

He calls it Angelic Intelligence — a framework built on what he describes as virtue-native AI, where ethical reasoning is not applied after the fact but embedded in the computational substrate itself. His 27 Digital Angels, a framework drawing on cross-cultural traditions of virtue from Confucian ethics to Ubuntu philosophy to the Vedantic concept of dharma, are not filters on top of a system. They are, in his formulation, the system.

The concept will be tested. Every ambitious framework in AI eventually meets the grinding specificity of the real world — the edge cases, the adversarial inputs, the competing stakeholder interests. Natarajan knows this. He has spent enough time in Fortune 500 boardrooms to understand the distance between a compelling idea and a deployed technology.

IV. The Boy in the Courtyard

Back in the courtyard, a girl — maybe eight years old, her uniform slightly too big for her, sleeves rolled up — has taken his hand. He has stopped mid-sentence in conversation with a visiting journalist. He kneels down.

They look at each other for a moment that is longer than it should be, given that they have never met. She has the unsentimental gaze of a child who has learned to take the measure of adults quickly.

He says something to her in Telugu. She says something back. He laughs.

“She told me my shoes are dirty,” he translates, standing up.

They are. He has walked through the settlement’s unpaved lanes to get here, and his leather shoes are coated in the reddish-brown dust that is, in some sense, the geological record of this part of the city.

He doesn’t seem bothered. He looks, if anything, pleased.

“Children here see everything,” he says. “They miss nothing. The question is only whether the world will build systems that see them back.”

V. A Thousand-Year Problem

Every morning at 4 AM — before the technology industry wakes up, before the markets open, before the conference calls begin — Shekhar Natarajan paints. Classical Indian forms. He has done this for years. It is, he explains, less a hobby than a discipline of attention.

“Painting teaches you that the good things take time,” he says. “There is no shortcut in a brushstroke. The hand learns slowly. The eye learns slowly. Wisdom accumulates like sediment.”

He is preparing to speak at Davos and at the Future Investment Initiative in Riyadh — rooms full of the people who will make decisions about AI’s trajectory over the next decade. His message there will be, in essence, the same as his message in this courtyard: that the technology being built right now is making choices about who gets to be seen, and those choices have consequences that will outlast the quarterly earnings cycle by several centuries.

“The Indian intellectual tradition thinks in ten-thousand-year cycles,” he says. “Silicon Valley thinks in eighteen-month product roadmaps. Somewhere in between those two timeframes is the actual problem.”

He is, it should be said, not without self-awareness about the scale of his ambition — or its risks. He is building a company, not just a philosophy. The patents are real. The business models are real. The gap between virtue-native AI as concept and virtue-native AI as deployed infrastructure is real and large and requires capital and engineering talent and enterprise customers.

He talks about all of this without apparent anxiety, which is either the equanimity of a man who has made peace with uncertainty or the confidence of one who has been in harder rooms than a venture capital pitch meeting. Given the biography, both seem plausible.

Coda: The Boomerang

An hour after arriving, Natarajan is preparing to leave. The children have mostly dispersed back into their classrooms. The courtyard is quieter now, just a few stragglers and the low sound of a lesson being conducted somewhere inside the building.

He stops at the gate. Looks back.

“My parents sent something into the world,” he says, not to the journalist exactly, more to the general air of the place. “My mother with her ring and her three hundred and sixty-five mornings. My father with his quiet generosity. They sent it forward. And it came back to me — as opportunities, as mentors, as the people who appeared exactly when I needed them to appear.”

He is quiet for a moment.

“Now I have to send it forward again. That is all this is. That is what Angelic Intelligence is. The ring my mother pawned — I’m trying to give it back. A million times over. In a form she never could have imagined but would immediately recognize.”

He walks out through the gate. Behind him, through the window of a classroom, a girl is writing something on a chalkboard.

She doesn’t know a man just stood in her courtyard who grew up somewhere very much like this place, who left with thirty-four dollars, who came back decades later convinced that the most important thing he could build was not a faster supply chain or a more efficient algorithm, but something that learned — structurally, computationally, irreversibly — to see people like her.

She’s just doing her homework.

But the room she’s sitting in has electricity now. And somewhere, invisibly, a technology is being designed that might one day look at her and decide she is worth seeing.

Her mother’s sacrifice — whatever form it took, whatever ring she may have pawned or corridor she may have stood in — is already in the system.

That’s the bet, anyway.

New Delhi [India], February 27: HROne, a leading HCM software, today released AI in HR 2026: State of Adoption, Readiness & Impact, a national research study revealing a widening structural gap in enterprise HR that only 1.4% of organizations qualify as fully “AI-First,” with mature governance and accountability frameworks in place.

Unveiled at the HROne AI Summit 2026, the report draws insights from 693 HR leaders across startups, mid-market firms, and large enterprises. The findings show that AI adoption is accelerating particularly in recruitment, analytics, and HR operations, but institutional clarity around decision ownership and ethical oversight remains underdeveloped.

As AI begins shaping who gets hired, promoted, flagged for attrition risk, or cleared in payroll cycles, gaps in governance increasingly translate into enterprise risk affecting compliance, fairness, reputation, and leadership credibility.

The central message is clear: AI is already shaping people’s decisions. What remains undefined is who ultimately owns those decisions and how they are defended.

Inside the Report: Mapping AI’s Influence on HR Decisions

HROne’s AI in HR 2026 Report moves beyond adoption metrics to assess decision maturity and structural readiness. It combines benchmark data with interpretive analysis to evaluate where AI is embedded in live workflows and whether it is being scaled responsibly.

Key insights include:

• 68% of HR teams remain in pre-scale stages of AI maturity
• Only 1.4% qualify as “AI-First,” combining scaled usage with governance readiness
• Recruitment and analytics lead adoption, driven by volume and decision latency pressure
• Governance and ethical preparedness rank as the weakest maturity pillars
• Most HR leaders expect 25–40% of HR work to be augmented by AI by 2026 not replaced
• Adoption is largely bottom-up, while governance remains fragmented

The report introduces the HROne AI Index 2026, a benchmark framework measuring organizations across three pillars:

• AI Adoption – Live workflow integration
• AI Readiness – Skills, governance, and cultural preparedness
• AI Impact – Measurable efficiency, quality, employee experience, and credibility gains

The index reveals a consistent pattern: technology deployment is outpacing structural preparedness.

Why This Report Matters for HR Leadership Now

AI’s presence in HR is no longer hypothetical. It is already influencing hiring shortlists, attrition risk signals, payroll anomaly detection, performance documentation, employee query resolution, and more.

However, the study highlights a structural imbalance: Adoption is largely bottom-up and pressure-driven. Governance is top-down and incomplete. This creates a fragile middle state where AI influences decisions without clearly defined ownership frameworks.

For CHROs and HR leaders, the report reframes the conversation from tool adoption to structural readiness. As noted in the report’s foreword:

“AI will not reduce the importance of HR. It will redefine it. The question is no longer whether HR should use AI but whether HR will lead AI adoption or be led by it.”
—Karan Jain, Founder, HROne

The research emphasizes that the real competitive advantage lies not in deploying more AI tools, but in designing systems where human judgment, explainability, and ethical accountability remain intact.

Why This Matters for India’s Business Ecosystem

India’s workforce scale, regulatory complexity and high-volume HR environments create conditions where AI is adopted quickly, often out of operational necessity.

However, the report argues that scaling AI without defined accountability structures introduces systemic risks:

• Unclear ownership of AI-influenced hiring outcomes
• Bias exposure without audit mechanisms
• Payroll or compliance errors amplified by automation
• Leadership decisions influenced by opaque algorithmic signals

In a market where trust and governance increasingly shape enterprise valuation, AI maturity in HR becomes a board-level issue, not merely a functional one.

The study suggests that the next competitive advantage will not belong to organizations that deploy AI fastest, but to those that embed it with explainability, human oversight and decision clarity.

Extending HROne’s Vision: Building People-First AI Systems at Scale

The launch of the research reflects HROne’s long-term commitment to responsible, execution-grounded AI integration in HR. Rather than positioning AI as a feature upgrade, the report frames it as an operating model shift — one that requires workflow redesign, AI fluency, human-in-the-loop governance, and structured bias review mechanisms.

“The most powerful HR teams of tomorrow won’t be the biggest — they’ll be the most AI-enabled. At HROne, we are making sure that every business, regardless of size, walks into that future fully equipped. AI is our biggest investment, our boldest commitment, and our clearest direction,” says Karan Jain, Founder, HROne.

The study concludes that HR’s strategic relevance in the AI era will depend on its ability to combine speed with accountability — enabling AI to accelerate decisions without eroding trust. Organizations that institutionalize governance alongside AI will build durable credibility. Those that pursue automation without structural oversight risk operational velocity without sustainable trust. In the AI era, HR will not be judged by how much it automates. It will be judged by how well it defends the decisions AI helps make.

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], February 27: In a world where a single post can reach thousands within minutes, social media has quietly become one of the most powerful tools in modern healthcare. For doctors, it is no longer just about hospital corridors and clinic consultations; it is also about digital conversations, awareness reels, live Q&A sessions, and myth-busting posts. Dr. Garvit Chitkara believes that when used responsibly, social media can transform the way patients understand diseases, especially complex conditions like breast cancer.

As a leading Breast Cancer surgeon in Mumbai, Dr. Garvit Chitkara has seen how online information shapes patient perceptions even before they step into a clinic. Currently serving as Associate Director of Breast Surgical Oncology and Oncoplasty at the Nanavati Max Institute of Cancer Care, Nanavati Max Super Specialty Hospital, he feels that doctors today must embrace digital platforms as part of their responsibility toward public health education. “Patients often come to us after reading something online,” he says. “If credible doctors are not part of that conversation, misinformation can easily take over. Social media allows us to guide, educate, and reassure at the right time.”

Trained at the prestigious Tata Memorial Hospital, where he was inducted as faculty immediately after completing his training, Dr. Chitkara has always balanced academic excellence with patient-centric care. Over the years, he has trained the next generation of cancer surgeons and contributed to clinical research in breast oncology, genetics, and precision medicine. Today, he extends that mentorship beyond hospital walls through digital engagement, simplifying medical jargon into understandable, actionable information for patients and families.

He points out that breast cancer awareness in India still faces challenges due to stigma, fear, and delayed diagnosis. “Early detection can save lives, but hesitation and misinformation often cause delays,” Dr. Chitkara explains. “If a simple post about warning signs or the importance of mammography motivates even one woman to seek timely screening, that’s meaningful impact.” Through discussions on breast-conserving surgery, oncoplastic techniques, genetic testing, and survivorship, he emphasizes that modern breast cancer treatment focuses not only on cure but also on quality of life and aesthetic outcomes.

Social media, according to Dr. Chitkara, also builds transparency and trust. Patients increasingly research doctors online before booking appointments. A thoughtful and professional digital presence helps them understand a doctor’s approach, philosophy, and expertise. “Healthcare decisions are deeply personal,” he shares. “When patients see consistent, educational content, it reassures them that they are choosing someone who prioritizes clarity and compassion.”

However, he is equally firm about maintaining ethical boundaries. “Social media should never replace clinical consultation,” he cautions. “It is a platform for awareness, not diagnosis. Patient confidentiality and medical ethics must always remain non-negotiable.” By focusing on evidence-based education rather than sensational content, he believes doctors can uphold credibility while expanding their outreach.

Beyond patient education, social platforms have become valuable tools for professional collaboration. Surgeons and oncologists across the world share research updates, surgical innovations, and insights into evolving cancer therapies. For a specialist involved in breast oncoplastic surgery and molecular oncology, staying digitally connected ensures exposure to global advancements that ultimately benefit patients back home.

Dr. Chitkara also highlights the emotional dimension of digital communication. Cancer journeys can feel isolating, and online communities often provide comfort and shared strength. “Sometimes, reassurance is as important as treatment,” he says. “When patients read stories of recovery or hear a doctor calmly explain a procedure, it reduces anxiety and builds confidence.”

In today’s interconnected healthcare ecosystem, social media is no longer a distraction—it is a dynamic extension of patient care. When used responsibly, it becomes a bridge between medical science and society, empowering individuals with knowledge and encouraging proactive health decisions.

New Delhi [India], February 27: The newly released Holi track Tera Yaar Aayega has been receiving a warm and positive response from the audience. From colourful visuals to an energetic vibe, the song has quickly found its space among festive playlists. Released on the YouTube channel of Talk Timee TV, the track features Rishabh Jaiswal and Sana Khan and marks the first production venture of Medhavi Pictures.

Talking about the vision behind the song, Medhavi Pictures shared that the idea was simple and close to the heart. “Holi is literally our favourite festival. Like I can say that we can play Holi at any age, on any banger, because we love Holi that much. That was the main motive to come up with a Holi song as our first song, first release, as our first production,” they said.

https://www.instagram.com/p/DVIY4neDLX_/

They made it clear that the intention was not to create something complicated or niche. “So, Medhavi is always going to target festive songs and songs that common people will relate to; they’ll dance on it. So, basically, that was the vision.” The focus was more on celebration and relatability rather than trying to fit into a particular category, like romantic or party anthem. The idea was to create something upbeat that people could actually enjoy during Holi.

Holi songs are always competitive during the festive season, with multiple releases happening around the same time. When asked what makes Tera Yaar Aaega stand out, Medhavi Pictures answered honestly, “Holi songs are competitive, no doubt, during the festive season. But, kya maza hai na bina competition ke market mei utro toh. So, this was the thought behind it that we want to come with a banger, and Holi is the best thing.”

The team added, “So, we didn’t think about competition and everything. We just went with our heart that we want to make something on Holi, something very good and upbeat.” For them, the goal was clear — make a song that feels festive and real.

Speaking about casting Rishabh Jaiswal and Sana Khan, the makers hinted that the choice was based on suitability for the vibe and energy the song demanded. The pair brings freshness and chemistry to the screen, which adds to the song’s charm.

Rishabh Jaiswal shared what made him say yes to the project. “In the beginning, when I heard that it’s going to be a Holi song. You know, the whole setup, the whole vibe, especially the song. The first thing that I heard was the song, and I instantly fell in love with it because it is written very beautifully.” He further said, “After hearing it, I actually felt that it is a Holi song and I should definitely be a part of it. After knowing about the whole production process and how exactly they’re planning to shoot it. I got really excited.” For him, the vibe was enough to sign on.

Sana Khan also opened up about her excitement. “What excited me the most was finally getting to experience Holi the way I always wanted. I genuinely love this song,” she said. She added that since Holi often falls during Ramadan, she hasn’t always been able to celebrate it freely. “During the shoot, I played Holi with full masti, and the joy you see on screen is completely real.”

With festive colours, catchy beats and honest intentions, Tera Yaar Aayega seems to have struck the right chord this Holi season.

• Studio-based learning across conservation, housing, interiors and landscape
• Choice-based curriculum and global exposure opportunities
• Scholarships available for meritorious students

New Delhi [India], February 26: As climate volatility intensifies, technologies evolve, and cities grow, architecture is being asked to operate with greater responsibility and precision than ever before. Responding to this challenge, the Faculty of Architecture at CEPT University invites graduates seeking intellectual depth, technical rigour and meaningful engagement with the realities of practice.

At CEPT, postgraduate education is not an extension of the undergraduate program. It is a space for deliberate specialisation. Studios function as laboratories, a space for creative exploration of real-world challenges. Small cohorts work with expert tutors to develop arguments, test prototypes, and refine positions through sustained critique. The coursework, spread across the semester and summer and winter schools, opens up a wide range of explorations in the field of the built environment at large. Students have access to extensive resources in the form of the workshop, software, library, archives, material labs and an extensive network of national and international professionals.

Emphasising the intent behind the programs, Sameep Padora, Dean, Faculty of Architecture, CEPT University, said, “Postgraduate education in architecture today must go beyond skill acquisition — it must cultivate clarity of thought, technical rigour and the courage to take positions. At CEPT, our studios are structured as spaces of deep inquiry where students confront real constraints, test ideas against material and context, and develop an independent architectural voice. We are committed to nurturing professionals who can critically engage with the complexities of climate, culture and construction, technology, and lead meaningful change in the built environment.”

The Faculty offers six programs, each anchored in a critical domain that shapes the built environment-

Programs Offered

 Master’s in Landscape Architecture (MLA): Responding to climate change and ecological transformation, the M.Arch program in Landscape Architecture prepares professionals to work at the intersection of landscape, ecology, and society. Moving beyond garden-making, the curriculum addresses India’s growing environmental, social, and urban challenges, training students to see landscape as a dynamic system and design

across scales—from regional watersheds to urban public spaces. Graduates join a global alumni network of 500+ professionals to work in practice, academia, and research.

 Master’s in Interior Design (MID): Recognised as one of the most comprehensive and forward-looking postgraduate programs in interior design, the curriculum blends interdisciplinary learning, hands-on practice and exposure to emerging industry advancements. Students gain global perspectives through international exchanges, strong industry engagement and a robust placement ecosystem, leading to careers in top design firms, multidisciplinary consultancies, academics and design-led organisations in India and worldwide.

 M.Arch in Housing Design engages directly with one of India’s most urgent spatial questions- how to build housing that is socially responsive, economically viable, and environmentally responsible.

The fully choice-based curriculum allows students to design their own academic pathway through diverse studios- ranging from speculative futures to deep engagement with real-world housing challenges. Strong collaboration with peers, national practitioners and international workshops ensures broad professional exposure.

 Master’s in Conservation and Regeneration (MCR): Foregrounding its responsibility to the emerging realities of climate urgency, MCR treats conservation as primarily an ecological act of radical design, allowing for creative and responsible reinterpretations of historical structures that can integrate developmental pressures around. Designed for students interested in the intersection of history, technology, architectural and urban design, this program prepares professionals to address the expanding field of conservation practice. The curriculum is closely aligned with emerging industry and government investments in the contemporisation of historic environments.

 Master’s in Architectural Tectonics: When does a detail transcend construction and become architecture? How precisely must a building be detailed for construction itself to carry meaning? The Master of Architectural Tectonics (MAT) is positioned at the intersection of architecture and technology, where such questions are examined through drawing, computation, prototyping, and full-scale engagement with material and structure. The program is grounded in the conditions and challenges of its time. It recognises that architectural expression emerges through mastery of detailing and construction, where material intelligence and structural clarity give form to ideas.

 Master’s in Architectural History and Research (MAHR): MAHR cultivates the ability to think historically and critically about the built environment, from buildings to larger built-scapes and landscapes. In a time of shifting climate patterns and rapid technological and cultural change, building demands informed judgment — grounded in an understanding of what has succeeded, failed, endured, and evolved. Through research, drawing, archives, and writing, students develop historical instinct and

analytical depth, preparing them for research, conservation, publishing, curation, education, policy, and informed architectural practice.

Admissions Open!

Applications for the 2026 cycle are now open. Detailed information on eligibility criteria, important dates, and scholarships is available at www.cept.ac.in

For those seeking more than just another credential, for those seeking depth, position, and the ability to engage meaningfully with the built environment, we invite you to apply.

Mr. Ashish Joshi, Managing Director, Landmark Capital Advisors

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], February 26: India’s real estate sector is transitioning from cyclical expansion to structural consolidation. What was once largely liquidity-driven is now increasingly shaped by institutional capital, regulatory discipline, and income-oriented investing.

According to Ashish Joshi, Founder of Landmark Capital Advisors, Indian real estate is entering a phase defined less by speculative appreciation and more by structural fundamentals.

“This is not merely another upcycle. We are witnessing ecosystem-level strengthening — from regulatory transparency to institutional participation and capital sophistication,” says Joshi.

A Structural Shift Backed by Data

India remains the fastest-growing major economy, with GDP projected to expand at 6–7% annually over the medium term (IMF estimates). This macro resilience is translating into sustained real estate capital flows.

• Institutional investments in Indian real estate crossed ~USD 5–6 billion annually in recent years (JLL, CBRE reports).
• Over the past five years, cumulative institutional inflows have exceeded USD 25 billion.
• Office, logistics, and residential assets account for the majority of this capital allocation.
• REIT and AIF participation has deepened capital markets transparency.

Unlike previous cycles, capital today is increasingly long-duration and yield-focused.

“Allocator conversations have evolved,” Joshi notes. “The focus has shifted from aggressive IRR targeting to income durability, downside protection, and asset-level governance.”

Institutional Capital Is Reshaping Market Behavior

Institutional participation — both global pension funds and domestic capital pools — is redefining investment frameworks.

Recent trends indicate:

• Global Capability Centers (GCCs) leased over 40% of Grade-A office space in major Indian cities in the past year.
• India’s total Grade-A office stock has expanded from ~450 million sq ft a decade ago to over 800 -900 million sq ft, with projections exceeding 1.2–1.3 billion sq ft by 2030.
• Logistics and warehousing stock has grown rapidly, supported by e-commerce expansion and supply-chain realignment.

Beyond volume, the nature of capital has changed:

• Structured vehicles
• Asset-level reporting
• ESG and sustainability integration
• Phased deployment strategies

This signals a transition from momentum-driven allocation to process-driven capital deployment.

Office Real Estate: Flight to Quality

India continues to attract multinational corporations and GCC expansion across Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Mumbai, Pune, and NCR.

Gross office leasing in recent years has typically been in the 50–70 million sq ft annual range, with 2025 touching over 80 million sq ft, placing India among the largest global office markets.

However, growth is increasingly selective:

• Prime Grade-A assets show strong occupancy resilience.
• Secondary inventory faces pricing and vacancy pressure.
• Sustainability-certified buildings command rental premiums of 8–12% in certain micro-markets.

“Quality-led dispersion will define performance,” says Joshi. “Tenant strength and asset management discipline will matter more than broad market optimism.”

Residential: From Momentum to End-User Stability

India’s residential sector has seen strong recovery:

• Annual housing sales across top 7 cities crossed 300,000+ units in recent peak years (Anarock, PropEquity data).
• Inventory overhang has reduced significantly from prior-cycle highs.
• Premium and luxury segments have outperformed, particularly in Mumbai, NCR, and Bengaluru.

However, the structural shift suggests normalization rather than overheating.

Demand is increasingly:

• End-user driven
• Supported by urban income growth
• Anchored in demographic strength (median age ~28 years)

Landmark Capital Advisors emphasizes underwriting discipline in this phase:

• Developer governance
• Execution timelines
• Capital structuring
• Cash flow visibility

“Risk must be evaluated holistically, particularly in under-construction and premium segments where capital deployment spans multiple years,” Joshi explains.

Governance as Competitive Advantage

Regulatory evolution — including RERA implementation, REIT frameworks, and strengthened AIF compliance — has enhanced transparency.

Institutional allocators now assess:

• Reporting standards
• Risk frameworks
• Incentive alignment
• Capital recycling discipline

“Governance is no longer a compliance checkbox — it is a performance driver,” says Joshi.

Platforms that embed governance into structuring philosophy are increasingly preferred by long-term capital.

The Rise of Income-Oriented Strategies

Historically, valuation expansion drove a meaningful share of returns in Indian real estate. With cap-rate compression moderating in prime markets, the next phase will emphasize:

• Rental growth
• Net operating income (NOI) expansion
• Leasing execution
• Structured refinancing

India’s REIT market, now managing USD 15+ billion in assets, has demonstrated investor appetite for stabilized, income-generating assets.

Institutional investors are increasingly favoring:

• Stabilized commercial portfolios
• Hybrid income-growth strategies
• Operational value-add frameworks

“Income visibility will anchor future performance,” Joshi notes. “Operational alpha will separate outperformers from passive participants.”

Operational Alpha: The Next Differentiator

As markets mature, execution becomes central to value creation:

• Leasing expertise
• Asset repositioning
• Sustainability integration
• Financial engineering
• Structured exits

Landmark Capital Advisors focuses on phased capital deployment and volatility management frameworks to enhance long-term credibility.

“India’s growth story remains compelling. But the composition of returns is evolving,” says Joshi.

Looking Ahead: Precision Over Expansion

India’s structural growth shift reflects maturation, not slowdown.

Urbanization, infrastructure development, demographic advantage, and supply-chain repositioning continue to support real estate demand. However, broad-based appreciation is giving way to selective, governance-led growth.

According to Ashish Joshi, the next decade will reward:

• Governance integrity
• Asset-level precision
• Income durability
• Operational excellence

“The future of Indian real estate belongs to disciplined capital.”

As India advances through this structural transformation, real estate appears less driven by speculative cycles and more by institutional depth — where strategic clarity and execution excellence will ultimately determine long-term success.

Jaipur (Rajasthan) [India], February 26: Nandani Creation Ltd(NSE: JAIPURKURT | INE696V01013)

In the sun-drenched courtyards of Rajasthan, where the rhythmic sound of wooden blocks hitting fabric has echoed for centuries, a new kind of legacy is being written. Amidst the vibrant chaos of Jaipur’s Johari Bazaar and the timeless elegance of the Pink City, the scent of fresh dyes and the glimmer of Gota Patti have always told a story of royalty. However, the true revolution began when this local fervourwas reimagined for the modern woman. Today, Nandani Creation Ltd (NSE: JAIPURKURT)—the powerhouse behind the iconic Jaipur Kurti brand—is proving that the soul of Rajasthan isn’t just a heritage to be preserved, but a global fashion statement to be worn every day.

The journey from a local Jaipur label to a National Stock Exchange-listed entity is a masterclass in scaling domestic artistry through modern data and discipline. Founded by Mr Anuj Mundhra and Mrs Vandana Mundhra, the company initially carved a niche as a digital-first pioneer. While many traditional labels were hesitant to embrace the internet, the creators of Jaipur Kurti leaned into the shift, achieving a staggering 52% CAGR during its early digital phase. This first-mover advantage allowed them to master the art of online storytelling before the market became saturated, transforming them from a simple online supplier into a beloved national household name.

The year 2025 marked a historic turning point for the company as it officially crossed the 100-crore sales milestone in a single calendar year. This achievement is not merely a financial win; it is a validation of their “Concept to Creation” philosophy. Unlike traditional fashion houses that follow rigid seasonal calendars, Nandani operates a high-velocity design engine that launches new styles every two to three weeks. With over 5,000 unique SKUs and an average of 700 new designs annually, the brand ensures it stays ahead of the trend curve, offering “fresh fashion” at an accessible average selling price of ₹900 appx..

Beyond the numbers, the brand’s strength lies in its strategic multi-brand portfolio. From the everyday elegance of the flagship Jaipur Kurti and the handcrafted premium feel of Jaipur Kurti Luxe to the high-end wedding sophistication of “Amaiva-By Jaipur Kurti”, the company caters to every facet of a woman’s life. This versatility is why the brand resonates with everyone from corporate leaders to college students—a connection further solidified by their earlier partnership with Bollywood icon Madhuri Dixit, who served as the Brand Ambassador, embodying the same grace, longevity, and “Dhak-Dhak” spirit that the brand stands for.

The most compelling chapter of this story is Nandani’s transition to an “Asset-Light” model. By shifting from in-house manufacturing to demand-based outsourcing, the company has optimized its working capital and improved margins. This operational agility is fuelling an aggressive omnichannel expansion. With over 180+ shop-in-shop counters/LFRS presence in Shoppers Stop, Reliance Trends, Centro, Avantara & Kalanikethan etc. and a growing fleet of Exclusive Brand Outlets in major hubs like Rajasthan, Delhi, Mumbai, Gurgaon, Gujarat, Uttar Pradesh, Bangalore etc., the brand is successfully bringing the authentic fervour of Jaipur to every corner of India.

As Nandani Creation continues to target a projected 30% CAGR, it stands as a rare example of a business that balances artistic legacy with fiscal precision. The story of Jaipur Kurti is far from over; it is a narrative of how a traditional craft can be re-engineered for a digital age, proving that when you wear a piece of this legacy, you are wearing the future of Indian fashion.

 Navi Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], February 25: Marathon Nextgen Realty Ltd (MNRL), one of Mumbai’s leading real estate developers, has announced the launch of The Nirvana Collection, the final and most premium phase within its 25 acre township project, Marathon Nexzone. The project is located at Palaspe Phata, just 10 minutes from the newly opened Navi Mumbai International Airport.

Set on a 25-acre land parcel, with over 2,500 homes already delivered and a thriving community of more than 5,000 residents, Marathon Nexzone is among the most established residential townships in the Panvel micro-market.

The Nirvana Collection features four towers offering premium 2 and 3 BHK residences, with pricing starting from ₹98 lakh (all inclusive). The phase spans 3 acres and has a total carpet area of approximately 4.9 lakh sq. ft with a gross development value of over ₹600 crore. It features over 70,000 sq. ft of exclusive amenities, including landscaped open spaces, sports facilities, wellness zones and high-street retail.

Commenting on the launch, Samyag Shah, Director – MNRL, said: “Nexzone has been one of our defining township developments. Over the years, we have seen it evolve from a vision into a thriving community with over 5,000 residents. We are launching the final phase at a time when Panvel’s infrastructure story has moved from anticipation to reality. Today’s buyers are looking for trusted brands that have a strong delivery record, good connectivity, and premium amenities – and Nirvana at Nexzone checks all these boxes.”

A Location Whose Time Has Come

The launch of the Nirvana Collection has been strategically timed to leverage the enhanced connectivity and resultant boost in real estate demand due to recent infrastructure developments such as the operational Navi Mumbai International Airport and the Atal Setu. Located just 10 minutes from the Navi Mumbai International Airport and 15 minutes from Atal Setu, Nexzone sits at the epicentre of Mumbai 3.0 – the city’s next growth story.

“With the Atal Setu reducing travel time to South Mumbai to about 40 minutes, Panvel is no longer seen as distant,” added Samyag Shah. “For many buyers, the location now offers a practical balance of space and connectivity – something that wasn’t possible a few years ago. Taking into account upcoming developments such as the International Corporate Park in Kharghar, which is being modelled along the lines of BKC, the proposed International Educity project and other commercial hubs, the economic potential of Panvel is immense.”

The Nirvana Collection completes Marathon’s vision for Nexzone – transitioning it from a developing township to a mature residential address with completed infrastructure, established occupancy, and integrated amenities.

About Marathon Group

Marathon Group has over 56 years of experience in delivering residential townships, luxury housing and commercial developments across Mumbai and the MMR. The Group has completed over 100 projects, and delivered homes and workspaces to more than 15,000 families and 700+ businesses. MNRL has strong in-house capabilities in design, engineering, execution, marketing and sales, and prides itself on its transparency, customer centricity and strong reputation of being one of the most trusted developers in the region. The Group has a diverse portfolio of ongoing projects at Lower Parel, Byculla, Mulund, and land banks at Bhandup, Thane, Dombivli and Panvel.

Gurugram (Haryana) [India], February 25:  As India’s senior population continues to grow, with projections indicating that one in five Indians will be over 60 by 2050, the need for world-class elder care facilities has never been more critical.

Leading this transformation is AurumLiving Senior & Assisted Living, a luxury senior care facility in Gurugram that is setting new benchmarks for what senior living can and should be in India.

Located in the prestigious South City-2 neighborhood of Gurugram, Aurum Senior & Assisted Living has distinguished itself as Delhi NCR’s most comprehensive senior living destination by offering an unprecedented range of specialized care services—from independent living for active seniors to specialized dementia and palliative care—all delivered with five-star hospitality standards.

“We recognized a significant gap in India’s senior care landscape. Families were forced to choose between substandard facilities or expensive options that still didn’t meet the holistic needs of their loved ones. At Aurum, we’ve created something different—a place where luxury meets medical excellence, where independence is celebrated, and where Indian values of respect and dignity for elders are woven into everything we do.”

COMPREHENSIVE CARE ACROSS THE SENIOR LIVING SPECTRUM

What sets Aurum apart from traditional old age homes in Delhi NCR is its comprehensive approach to senior care. The facility offers seven distinct care programs:

1. Independent Living – For active seniors seeking community and social engagement

2. Assisted Living – Personalized daily living support while maintaining dignity and autonomy

3. Dementia Care – Evidence-based programs designed specifically for cognitive health challenges

4. Memory Care – Dedicated support for residents with Alzheimer’s and related conditions

5. Post-Operative Care – Professional rehabilitation and recovery services after surgery

6. Geriatric Care – Comprehensive elderly health management with specialized medical protocols

7. Palliative Care – Comfort-focused care delivered with compassion and dignity

“This continuum of care is crucial. Seniors’ needs evolve over time, and families deserve a facility that can adapt to those changing needs without requiring disruptive transitions to new locations.”

MEDICAL EXCELLENCE MEETS FIVE-STAR HOSPITALITY

At the heart of Aurum’s offering is its 24/7 medical care provided by qualified healthcare professionals, complemented by comprehensive support services including physiotherapy, recreational activities, dietitian-planned nutrition, and personalized concierge services.

The facility’s strategic location in South City-2 provides residents and their families with proximity to premier hospitals including Medanta, Fortis, and Max Healthcare, while remaining accessible to Delhi’s international airport and major cultural amenities—making it an ideal choice for both local families and NRIs seeking premium care for parents in India.

ADDRESSING THE STIGMA, EMBRACING THE FUTURE

Aurum is actively working to change perceptions around senior living in India.

Rather than positioning itself as simply an “old age home,” the facility represents a modern approach to aging—one that honors independence, celebrates active living, and provides professional support when needed.

“Indian culture has always revered elders, but the realities of modern life—smaller homes, nuclear families, demanding careers—have created situations where families want to provide excellent care but lack the resources or infrastructure. Aurum bridges that gap. We’re not replacing family; we’re enhancing the care families can provide, giving seniors access to medical expertise, social engagement, and quality of life that might not be possible in traditional home settings.”

For adult children making care decisions for aging parents, Aurum offers peace of mind through transparency, regular family involvement opportunities, and a culture that respects the central role of family in Indian senior care.

SETTING THE STANDARD FOR LUXURY SENIOR LIVING IN INDIA

With spacious accommodations, chef-prepared meals accommodating dietary preferences and medical needs, engaging recreational programs, and beautifully maintained grounds, Aurum delivers an experience that rivals the best international senior living communities while remaining rooted in Indian cultural values.

The facility’s commitment to holistic wellness—addressing physical, mental, emotional, and social wellbeing—creates an environment where seniors don’t just receive care; they thrive.

ABOUT AURUM SENIOR & ASSISTED LIVING

Aurum Senior & Assisted Living is a premier luxury retirement homes facility located in South City-2, Gurugram, Haryana.

Offering comprehensive care services across the full spectrum of elder care needs—from independent living to specialized dementia and palliative care—Aurum combines medical excellence with five-star hospitality standards.

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], February 24: India’s automotive sector is set to witness the launch of IIMS, a new large scale industry platform with the announcement of the India International Motor Show 2026. The first edition of the show will be held from 24^th to 26^th April 2026 at the CIDCO Exhibition & Convention Centre.

IIMS is being organised by the Percept Group in alignment with leading Automotive industry Associations.

Positioned as a comprehensive B2B and B2C platform, the India International Motor Show is designed to bring the entire motor vehicle ecosystem under one roof. The show will span passenger vehicles, commercial vehicles, electric and hybrid mobility, auto components, accessories, auto care, aftermarket solutions, service technologies, and allied mobility services.

IIMS 2026 is being structured as a business focused industry marketplace supported by large scale consumer engagement. Over three days, the event will host OEM unveilings, future mobility showcases, Tier 1 sourcing zones, curated B2B matchmaking, investor interactions, and live demonstrations. The platform is expected to attract OEMs, suppliers, technology firms, start ups, MSMEs, fleet operators, investors, policy makers, and consumers from across India and overseas.

Designed to international exhibition standards, IIMS 2026 will comprise a multi layered format. A large-scale exhibition will showcase new vehicle launches, advanced technologies, mechanisms, and fixtures. A structured knowledge conference will bring together policy makers, global experts, and industry leaders to discuss localisation, supply chain resilience, clean energy transition, connected mobility, cyber security, and India’s expanding role in global automotive manufacturing.

The programme will also include focused workshops and master classes on electric mobility adoption, sustainability, digital transformation, service technologies, and aftermarket growth. Structured B2B meetings will enable direct engagement between buyers, sellers, manufacturers, suppliers, and investors. For consumers and enthusiasts, the show will feature live test drive tracks, EV charging demonstrations, and interactive product studios offering first hand experience of emerging mobility solutions.

The Industry support for IIMS 2026 reflects broad sector endorsement. Supporting associations include India Economic Development Association, SME Chamber of India, Mumbai Bus Malak Sanghatana, Federation of Tourist Taxi Operators, Indian Tourist Transporters Association,

Global Chamber Goa, Society for Smart e Mobility, India Chamber of International Business, and All India Association of Industries.

Senior industry leaders supporting the initiative include Aarti Neemkar, President, IEDA, Deepak Naik, President, MBMS, Malik Patel, President, FOTTO, Mohan Goyal, Zonal Chairman, ITTA, Manpreet Singh, President, ICIB, Vijay Kalantri, President, AIAI, and Chandrakant Salunke, Chairman, SME Chamber of India.

Navi Mumbai has been selected as the host city in view of its rapid emergence as a major commercial and infrastructure node. The newly opened Navi Mumbai International Airport, CIDCO’s mobility upgrades, and expanding last mile connectivity provide the scale and access required for an exhibition of this magnitude. The location also addresses a long standing gap for a world class automotive platform in Western India.

“India International Motor Show 2026 is conceived as a definitive convergence point for the mobility ecosystem, where innovation translates into real market opportunity,” said Vidya Alva, Chief Operating Officer, Percept ICE. “Western India has long lacked a world-class automotive platform, and we at Percept recognised this gap early. With our proven expertise in creating high-impact automotive experiences and industry IPs, we are excited to anchor this showcase in Navi Mumbai. Backed by the city’s rapidly advancing infrastructure and a sharp programme of launches, dialogues and live tech demonstrations, IIMS 2026 will ignite new collaborations, accelerate growth, and establish a powerful new hub for future mobility in India.”

Said Tejinder Singh, Project Director & GM, Percept ICE, “IIMS 2026 will be a business-first motor show, blending curated trade programming with spectacular brand experiences. With Percept’s event capabilities and CIDCO’s infrastructural vision, this edition will set a new benchmark for automotive exhibitions in India.”

“Navi Mumbai offers the scale and strategic access that the automotive industry needs now – a connected gateway to Mumbai and to rapidly expanding markets across western and southern India,” said Anuj Wadhwa, CEO, Cidco Exhibition Centre. “Our infrastructure priorities are aligned to support world-class exhibitions such as IIMS and to create meaningful economic impact for the region.”

“IIMS 2026 marks a timely and much-needed step in unifying India’s fast-evolving automotive ecosystem,” said Aarti Neemkar, President India Economic Development Association (IEDA). “For OEMs, suppliers, and technology leaders, this platform will serve as an accelerant, enabling deeper alignment, faster collaborations, and a clearer roadmap toward global competitiveness. The industry has long needed a common stage in Western India, and IIMS fills that gap with the right scale, intent, and industry focus.”

“India’s mobility transition demands a platform where cutting-edge EV, energy, and autonomous technologies can be experienced first-hand by both businesses and consumers,” noted V Senthil Kumar, President, The Society for Smart E-Mobility (SSEM).

“IIMS 2026 will deliver the opportunity with its innovation-led format, test-drive ecosystems, and technology showcases, this show will help accelerate adoption, attract investment, and spotlight India’s leadership in next-generation clean mobility.” Said Mohan Goyal, Zonal Chairman, India Tourist Transporters Association (ITTA).

“Locating IIMS 2026 in Navi Mumbai is a strategic milestone for the industry,” said Deepak Naik, Chairman, Mumbai Bus Malak Sanghatana (MBMS). “Mumbai has always been a critical market for mobility and investment, yet it lacked a world-class motor show and Navi Mumbai offers unmatched accessibility and capacity. This edition will finally give Western India the showcase it deserves and will draw global attention to the region’s automotive potential.”

With over four decades of shaping India’s automotive narrative, Percept Group has delivered high impact launches, dealer ecosystems, auto expos, and consumer engagement platforms for leading global and Indian automotive brands. This experience forms the foundation for the conceptualization, planning, designing and production of IIMS as a globally benchmarked automotive platform.

The auditorium at Bharat Mandapam, one of India’s most prestigious convention centres, fell silent in the particular way that rooms do when something unexpected is about to happen. The AI Summit on Trust, Safety, and the Future of AI Governance had been a parade of policy papers, regulatory frameworks, and cautious optimism from establishment voices. Then Shekhar Natarajan took the stage.

What followed, according to delegates who attended this past Wednesday — February 19, 2026 — was not a presentation. It was a reckoning. The Founder and CEO of Orchestro.AI, architect of a framework he calls “Angelic Intelligence,” stood before global policymakers, technology executives, and international journalists and delivered a verdict on the entire edifice of AI governance that the world has spent the last decade constructing.

“The entire world is debating how to govern AI after the fact,” he told the packed hall. “Angelic Intelligence asks a fundamentally different question: how do we build a machine that is inherently good?”

The standing ovation that followed was not polite applause. It was the sound of a room recognising that an outsider had just said the thing that insiders had been unable to articulate.

The UK Took Notice First

The photographs in this report tell a story that words almost obscure. In the first, Natarajan sits beside a UK host on a terracotta sofa, both men holding a copy of The Business Influencer magazine — the cover story bearing his name. On the table in front of them, a second copy. On the wall behind them, the kind of classical fresco that adorns European institutions of genuine standing. It is not the image of a man who has been invited into the room. It is the image of a man who has become the story the room is telling about itself.

The second photograph is starker. Stage lights. A formal ceremony. Natarajan in an exquisitely embroidered Indian sherwani — a deliberate, visible marker of cultural identity at a moment of international recognition — receiving what the Signature Awards describe as its Global Impact prize. The man presenting it wears a black turban and a bow tie. Both men are leaning slightly toward each other, sharing something private in a public moment.

That award was, by any reading of what followed, a turning point. The Business Influencer, one of the United Kingdom’s recognised voices on entrepreneurship and innovation, ran the cover feature that emerged from conversations around the ceremony. The piece traced Natarajan from a one-room Hyderabad childhood — shared with seven family members, his father earning the equivalent of £1.40 a month — to the helm of a Silicon Valley company proposing a fundamental reimagining of how artificial intelligence is built.
