India is seeing a change in the way people enjoy whisky. Earlier people in India mostly drank whisky neat or with ice. Now that is changing fast. On World Whisky Day some of the bars in India showed how whisky is being used to make exciting cocktails. This is a sign that Indias whisky cocktail culture is growing, where old ways of drinking meet ideas.

India is one of the markets for whisky in the world. People in India drink a lot of whisky every year. For a time they drank it in a traditional way. Now younger people and bars in cities are changing this. Of just drinking whisky on its own people want drinks that are fun and exciting. This change is helping whisky to become more than a drink it is becoming a flexible ingredient for cocktails.

One of the reasons for this change is that people are looking for experiences when they go out at night. Bars, lounges and cafes are opening everywhere in India. People are spending money on these experiences. The bar and pub market in India is now worth a lot of money. It is still growing. People do not just want cocktails anymore they want something exciting with unique flavors and stories behind them.

A key part of this movement is the use of blended Scotch whisky like Johnnie Walker Black Label. This whisky is known for its taste, which makes it perfect for bartenders to experiment with. They can mix Johnnie Walker Black Label whisky with coffee, fruits, spices and even desserts to create flavors.

On World Whisky Day four popular bars in India got together to create an event called "Whisky Experiments". Each bar created cocktails that used whisky in a way. One bar used coffee to make cocktails, which's a big part of Indian culture. Another bar used fruits in ways showing that fruity drinks do not have to be sweet

A third bar used ingredients like flowers, cookies and tea to create exciting cocktails. This showed that freshness in cocktails can be more than herbs and citrus. The last bar used spices to create cocktails, which showed how Indian flavors can make global spirits unique.

These experiments show that whisky is no longer for traditional drinking. It is now a canvas for creativity and bartenders are using whisky in exciting ways. Indias whisky culture is entering an era, where bars are always coming up with ideas and customers are looking for new experiences. The future of whisky in India is not just about drinking whisky on its own it is, about creating flavors with whisky.

How This Terrible Thing Happened

The boy, Shivansh Shailesh Dhut lived in a place called Riddhi Siddhi Apartment in Anand Nagar. The police said this happened on Monday night when Shivansh was playing by himself in the area where he lived. He got into the lift alone. Pressed the buttons which made the lift move. The lift got stuck between floors before it could reach the floor.

 The boy got trapped inside the lift. Could not get out. His family started looking for him when he did not come home. They told the police and the fire department about what happened.

What The Fire Department Did To Help

The people who help in emergencies came quickly and opened the lift. They pulled out Shivansh, the boy who was stuck in the lift. Sadly Shivansh had already died.

The people in charge said they will try to find out what caused the death of Shivansh. The police wrote down what happened and started investigating the death of Shivansh.

What The Police Found Out At First

 The police checked the lift to see if something was wrong with it. They did not find any problems with the lift.

 They are still looking at the papers that show when the lift was last checked and if it was safe for people like Shivansh to use.

 A senior police officer said they are looking at everything to understand what happened to Shivansh.

Another Bad Accident Involving A Child In India

Something similar happened before. A little boy, who was 4 years old died after he fell from a building in Greater Noida.

The child was with his mother, who was working as a helper. The child fell from a window that did not have any bars or protection to stop him from falling. He was taken to a hospital. They said he was already dead when he got there. People Are Getting More Concerned About Kids SafetyThese bad things that happened to kids like Shivansh have made people think more about how to keep kids safe in buildings where people live. People are worried about:

How safe the lifts are for kids to use.

 If the buildings are well taken care of to prevent accidents.

If kids are being watched enough by their parents or guardians.

 If there are safety things in place in buildings to protect kids like Shivansh.

The people in charge are expected to look at the safety rules in places where people live after these things happened to kids.These bad things that happened remind us of how accidents can be very bad especially when they involve kids, like Shivansh in the places where we live.

Alia Bhatt and Cannes 2026 Spark the Trend

At the Cannes Film Festival 2026, Alia Bhatt wore heart-shaped yellow diamond earrings along with a matching ring. The jewellery instantly grabbed attention and became one of the most talked-about fashion moments from Cannes.

Soon after, Carla Bruni also embraced the trend by wearing a bold yellow diamond necklace at a glamorous dinner party in Cannes.

Yellow Diamonds Were Already Dominating Red Carpets

This was not the first time celebrities were seen wearing yellow diamonds.

At the Met Gala 2026, Blue Ivy Carter wore a stunning 5.39-carat yellow diamond necklace designed by Henry & Henry. Supermodel Bella Hadid also wore a dramatic yellow diamond pendant that became a major talking point.

Earlier in the year at the Academy Awards 2026, Anne Hathaway dazzled in a yellow diamond necklace from Bvlgari. Reports say the necklace took more than 850 hours to create. Meanwhile, Gwyneth Paltrow wore a butterfly-inspired yellow diamond necklace from Tiffany & Co..

Why Are Yellow Diamonds So Special?

Experts say yellow diamonds are extremely rare. Their golden colour forms naturally over millions of years when nitrogen gets trapped inside the diamond during its creation process.

These diamonds are mainly found in countries like South Africa, Australia, and Russia.

Luxury jewellery brands like Chopard, Tiffany & Co., and Bvlgari are known for creating exclusive yellow diamond collections.

Jewellery entrepreneur Queenie Singh says yellow diamonds can sometimes cost even more than traditional white diamonds because of their rarity.

Affordable Yellow Diamond Options Also Exist

Not every yellow diamond is extremely expensive. Some jewellers offer colour-treated diamonds that look similar to natural yellow diamonds but are available at a much lower price.

This allows more people to enjoy the luxury look without spending a huge amount of money.

Why Celebrities Love Yellow Diamonds

Jewellery experts believe yellow diamonds represent a fresh and bold luxury statement. Celebrities are moving away from classic white diamonds and choosing jewellery that feels more personal, unique, and eye-catching.

The warm golden shine of yellow diamonds also matches today’s fashion trends, which focus on rich, radiant, and vintage-inspired styling.

Most Popular Yellow Diamonds in 2026

The most popular yellow diamonds this year are Fancy Intense Yellow Diamonds and Fancy Vivid Yellow Diamonds. These stones are loved for their deep colour, rarity, and strong sparkle.

With so many celebrities wearing them at major fashion events, yellow diamonds are no longer just a jewellery trend. They have become one of the biggest luxury fashion statements of 2026 — and this trend does not seem to be slowing down anytime soon.

What makes this journey even more special is how organically the madness has grown. Audiences are making Bhoota & Baba reels, dialogues and songs are trending everywhere, and the film’s horror-comedy energy has entered pop culture across Odisha. The unique promotions, including Bhoota walking inside cinema halls, transformed the theatrical experience into an event people wanted to be part of.

Beyond Odisha, the film is continuing to surprise everyone with an exceptional theatrical response in multiple cities, showing the growing reach and potential of Odia cinema on a larger stage.

Without depending on holiday weekends or superstar hype, Mantra Muugdha has built its success purely through audience excitement, repeat viewings and unstoppable word of mouth driven by the youth.

14 days of absolute madness at the box office and the journey is only getting bigger from here. Week 3 begins with even more energy, louder celebrations and audiences still rushing to experience the magic on the big screen.

The notice has also been sent to Manish Sisodia, Sanjay Singh, Saurabh Bharadwaj and Vinay Mishra.

A division bench of the Delhi High Court directed all the leaders to file their replies within four weeks. The next hearing in the matter is scheduled for August 4.

Court Orders Preservation of Social Media Records

The High Court also ordered that all social media posts, videos, and electronic records connected to the case should be preserved safely.

The judges said these records could play an important role during the hearing of the case and may be used as evidence in the proceedings.

How the Dispute Began

The dispute between Justice Swarana Kanta Sharma and Arvind Kejriwal started after a lower court discharged Kejriwal and others in the Delhi excise policy case on February 27.

After the lower court’s decision, the Central Bureau of Investigation challenged the order in the Delhi High Court.

On March 9, Justice Sharma stayed the lower court’s order and also paused some related proceedings. After this, Kejriwal requested that the matter be transferred from Justice Sharma’s bench. However, Chief Justice DK Upadhyaya rejected the request.

Kejriwal and Other Leaders Boycotted Proceedings

Later, Arvind Kejriwal, Manish Sisodia and some other leaders requested Justice Sharma to recuse herself from the case. Justice Sharma refused to step aside.

On April 27, Kejriwal announced that he would boycott the court proceedings. After this, Manish Sisodia and other leaders also decided not to attend the hearings.

Justice Sharma Initiates Contempt Proceedings

Justice Sharma later initiated contempt proceedings against Kejriwal and then withdrew herself from hearing the matter further.

She said that after refusing to recuse herself from the case, Kejriwal allegedly began making statements against the court and tried to intimidate the judiciary through social media campaigns and public remarks.

According to Justice Sharma, instead of challenging the court’s order in the Supreme Court, Kejriwal used social media and public statements to question the fairness and independence of the judiciary.

Court Says Such Actions Can Harm Trust in Judiciary

The court observed that such actions could damage public trust in the judiciary and lower the respect people have for courts and judges.

Justice Sharma stated that attempts to spread distrust against the court or question judicial independence publicly could undermine the authority and dignity of the judicial system.

This portion beautifully blends women empowerment with social resistance and emotional strength.

The workshop was conducted by eminent advocates and legal academicians Adv. Nizam A. Khan and Adv. Ali Hussain, who guided the students extensively regarding the entrance examination, preparation strategies, syllabus analysis, time management, and methods to secure high ranks in TSLAWCET–2026.

The organizers stated that the main objective of conducting the free workshop was to support deserving students and create awareness regarding legal education among youth. They reiterated their commitment towards educational guidance and professional mentoring for aspiring law students.

Led by a dedicated cross-functional team comprising international distribution, acquisitions, syndication, partnerships, technology and business development executives, NH Studioz will conduct an extensive slate of meetings with global OTT platforms, film distributors, airlines, broadcasters, localisation partners and production houses from across Europe, the Middle East, Latin America, Asia and North America.

The company’s Cannes strategy this year is centered around accelerating the global accessibility of Indian cinema while simultaneously adapting to rapidly evolving entertainment consumption patterns, technology-led distribution ecosystems and newer international monetisation opportunities for premium film content.

Among the celebrated titles being showcased in multiple languages are films such as Sholay, Pink, Lootera, Bandit Queen, Omkara, Ek Villain, Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai, The Dirty Picture, Mangal Pandey: The Rising, Partner, Bhoothnath, Maine Pyaar Kyun Kiya, Shootout At Lokhandwala, Baghban, Gol Maal, Shaan, Khubsoorat and Guddi, among several others. The catalogue spans timeless classics, critically acclaimed cinema and mainstream Bollywood entertainers, reflecting the scale and diversity of the NH Studioz film library.

“At a time when global audiences are increasingly consuming stories irrespective of language, Indian cinema is entering a phase of unprecedented international opportunity,” said Mr. Narendra Hirawat, Chairman, NH Studioz. “For us, Cannes is not merely a marketplace anymore — it is an annual global sprint where we continuously study audience evolution, technology shifts, platform behaviour and emerging monetisation ecosystems to ensure Indian films remain globally competitive and culturally relevant.”

“As a company, we are constantly evolving our international strategy through localisation, AI-enabled accessibility solutions, smarter discovery systems and territory-specific content positioning so that Indian stories can travel further than ever before,” he added.

NH Studioz is also actively exploring next-generation opportunities across AI-assisted localisation, metadata intelligence, digital packaging and multilingual discovery frameworks aimed at making Indian films more scalable and accessible for worldwide audiences while preserving their emotional authenticity and storytelling essence.

With one of India’s most commercially valuable film libraries, the company is witnessing increasing international interest not only in distribution rights but also in remake adaptations of Indian stories, particularly across the thriller, drama, action and comedy genres. The company is additionally evaluating restoration and preservation initiatives for select classics in order to introduce iconic Indian cinema to newer global audiences in enhanced formats.

Over the years, NH Studioz has steadily expanded its international presence by building long-term relationships across global distribution and content ecosystems, while continuously adapting itself to shifts in consumer behaviour, platform economics and cross-border entertainment consumption.

As audiences across the world continue embracing subtitled and dubbed storytelling from multiple cultures, NH Studioz aims to further position Indian cinema as a mainstream global entertainment category capable of transcending language and geography through universally relatable emotion-driven narratives.

Under the banner of Aum Entertainment Private Limited, the film’s screening at the Cannes Film Market became a proud cinematic moment, highlighting a globally relevant subject centered around humanity, equality and acceptance. Children of God is not just a film, but a socially conscious cinematic movement that gives voice to marginalized communities often denied dignity and equal respect in society. Inspired by the spiritual teachings of Lord Krishna and the compassionate philosophy of Sai Baba of Shirdi, the film delivers a universal message that every soul deserves love, acceptance and dignity.

The film follows the socially aware and spiritual legacy of projects like Sai Ki Mahima, Sai Vibhuti and Sai Bhakton Ki Sachchi Kahaniyan, all created by the Khetarpal family with themes rooted in faith, spirituality and humanity.

One of the film’s strongest metaphors draws inspiration from Shikhandi in the Mahabharata — a character whose presence changed the course of history and challenged social perceptions. Through pain, courage and transformation, Children of God presents a deeply emotional narrative about empowerment, inclusion and recognition for those historically overlooked by society.

Actor and Film maker Aushim Khetarpal, who is also known for supporting para-athletes and para-cricketers in India, believes the film has the power to initiate a meaningful global conversation about humanity, dignity and social inclusion.

The screening of Children of God at the Cannes Film Market stands as a proud moment for Indian cinema, proving once again that stories rooted in Indian spirituality and universal human values can deeply connect with audiences across the world.

The Future of Heart Surgery

Traditional open-heart surgery often requires large incisions, extended hospital stays, and lengthy recovery periods. Minimally invasive techniques, however, use small incisions and specialized instruments to perform complex procedures with far less trauma to the body. This innovation reduces pain, minimizes scarring, and allows patients to return to their normal lives much sooner.

Key Advantages for Patients

• Smaller Incisions, Less Pain: Procedures are performed through tiny cuts, significantly reducing discomfort and cosmetic concerns.

• Faster Recovery: Patients typically experience shorter hospital stays and quicker return to daily activities.

• Reduced Risk of Complications: Lower chances of infection, blood loss, and post-surgical complications compared to conventional methods.

• Enhanced Precision: Advanced imaging and surgical tools ensure accuracy and safety during complex cardiac interventions.

• Improved Quality of Life: Patients benefit from restored heart function with minimal disruption to their lifestyle.

The Enforcement Directorate talked about Robert Vadras case. Robert Vadras team said that the land transaction happened between 2008 and 2012. They also said that some crimes were added to the list of scheduled crimes under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act in 2013 and 2018.. The Enforcement Directorate did not accept this. The Enforcement Directorate said that Robert Vadras case falls under their jurisdiction.

Here are the details of the Haryana Land Case.

 It is a 3.53-acre land parcel in Shikohpur, Haryana. The Enforcement Directorate says that Robert Vadras company, Sky Light Hospitality bought the land from Onkareshwar Properties in 2008. The Enforcement Directorate is looking into this land deal.

The investigators say that the land was bought in a way that's not right. They got a license using influence and the payment records showed some irregularities. The Enforcement Directorate also said that a cheque worth ₹7.5 crore, which was supposed to be the payment for the land was never cashed. This makes people suspicious about Robert Vadras deal. The land was later sold to a real estate company called DLF at a certain price.

The Enforcement Directorate has taken some actions. Attached some properties. In one year they issued an order to attach properties approximately ₹37.64 crore. This included 43 properties linked to Robert Vadras case under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act. The Enforcement Directorate is still looking into transactions, property records and alleged links between companies involved in Robert Vadras land deal.

What will happen next in Robert Vadras case? Now that Robert Vadras plea has been withdrawn the trial court proceedings in Robert Vadras case will continue. The Enforcement Directorate will likely continue their investigation and present evidence related to the alleged land scam. Robert Vadras case will now move deeper into trial proceedings. Both sides will present their arguments and financial documents. Robert Vadras case is still very sensitive because of his family connections.

The authorities say that the investigation is based on evidence in Robert Vadras case. For now Robert Vadras case is one of the watched money laundering investigations involving big names, in politics. The Enforcement Directorate and Robert Vadra will be closely watched in Robert Vadras case.

They did this after they looked again at the kind of threats these people might face.

The government has taken away some of the police guards who were watching the homes of these people. They have also reduced the number of security personnel who were protecting them.

This happened after the state government also reduced the security provided to Abhishek Banerjee, who's a big leader in the All India Trinamool Congress.

The government officials said they made this decision after they thought about whether these people needed all that security.

Why the Bengal Government Reduced VIP Security

The government looked again at the threat levels for some leaders and officials.

As part of this review they reduced the security provided to politicians and former senior police officials.

The list of people who got reduced security includes:

 Banerjee

 Arup Biswas

 Subrata Bakshi

 Kunal Ghosh

 Sovan Chatterjee

 Rajeev Kumar

 Manoj Malaviya

 Piyush Pandey

The police guards who were outside their homes are now gone.

The officials said some of these people do not have jobs that require a lot of security anymore.

They will still get the kind of security that is required for their jobs.

For example Kalyan Banerjee and Rajeev Kumar will still get the security that is provided to Members of Parliament.

Arup Biswas will not get the kind of security that ministers get because he is not a minister right now.

Kunal Ghosh will only get the security that is provided to a Member of the Legislative Assembly.

The government also took away the security from a lawyer who used to represent the Trinamool Congress and the state government in court.

Piyush Pandey, who used to be the acting DGP will now get the security that is required for his job.

Mamata Banerjees Security Remains Unchanged

Even though the government reduced the security for important people they said they will not reduce the security for Mamata Banerjee.

The police in Kolkata have been told to make sure she is fully protected at her home when she travels and at events.

The government said they will not tolerate any mistakes, in her security.

This is part of the governments policy that people should only get the security they really need.

Some people who watch politics think this is a sign that the government wants to make sure that security is only provided to people who really need it and not to everyone.

The person they detained is Shivraj Motegaonkar, who runs Renukai Chemistry Classes also known as RCC.

He was taken to the CBI office in Pune for questioning because investigators found some links between his coaching institutes mock tests and the actual NEET-UG 2026 exam paper.

According to officials some questions from RCCs practice and mock test papers were the same as those asked in the NEET-UG examination that was held on May 3 2026.

This raised some concerns about a possible leak of confidential exam questions before the national-level medical entrance test.

The CBI is looking into the paper leak.

They found out that some mock test questions were the same as the NEET exam questions.

The investigation started after a parent filed a complaint saying that many questions in a test conducted by a private coaching institute in Latur were the same as those in the final NEET examination.

At first the local police started investigating the matter.

Because the allegations were serious and there could be links to other states the case was later given to the CBI.

The CBI searched the coaching institute and other places in Latur. Took some electronic devices like mobile phones, laptops, iPads and digital records.

Now they are looking at these devices for evidence related to question paper circulation, communication and financial transactions connected to the alleged leak.

The CBI also arrested a retired chemistry professor named PV Kulkarni, who they think has links to the paper-setting process.

Officials think the paper leak racket may involve a network that includes coaching institutes, education consultants and middlemen working across many states.

The investigation is going on in states.

The CBI is looking into leads in states like Maharashtra, Rajasthan and others that are connected to the case.

They are closely looking at:

 Transactions

 Phone call records

 Digital chats and messages

 Mock test material circulation

 Coaching centre involvement

The NEET-UG exam is one of the medical entrance examinations in India taken by many students every year to get into MBBS and other medical courses.

The alleged paper leak has caused a lot of concern among students and parents with many demanding action against those responsible.

The CBI is continuing its investigation. Questioning many suspects to find out the full extent of the alleged exam leak network.

This case has again raised some questions about exam security, transparency and the growing influence of coaching centres in competitive examinations, across India.

Fitness trainer Zoe Modgill recently explained in the media why many Indian women struggle with weight loss, low energy, weak hair and poor recovery despite eating home-cooked meals daily.

According to Zoe meals like dal, roti, sabzi, poha, dosa, khichdi and upma are healthy.. They are not always enough to meet the bodys protein needs. She explained that every meal should include a protein source like eggs, paneer, tofu, chicken, fish, curd, whey protein, soya chunks, chana, rajma or dal in the quantity.

Some simple protein hacks can help women. Zoe shared that most Indian women are not lacking discipline when it comes to fitness. Instead many are simply not getting protein in their daily meals. Protein is important for weight loss, muscle strength, hormonal balance, hair growth, better skin, energy levels, faster recovery and healthy ageing. We need protein to stay healthy.

She advised women to choose 4 to 5 protein sources to reach around 90 to 120 grams of protein intake. This can be easy.

Here are some easy protein options she recommended:

 4 whole eggs = 24g protein

 200g egg whites = 22g

 100g chicken breast = 25-30g

 100g fish = 22-25g

 100g prawns = 20-24g

 100g paneer = 18-20g

 150g tofu = 18-22g

 200g yoghurt or hung curd = 18-22g

 1 scoop whey protein = 22-25g

 1 cup cooked chana, rajma or dal = 12-18g

 50g soya chunks = 25g+

 100g tempeh = 18-20g

 A bowl of curd with 2 boiled eggs = 25g

 2 besan chillas with curd = 22-28g

 Paneer or tofu bhurji with 1 roti = 25g+

These simple food combinations can easily fit into a routine. They can help women improve their nutrition without making diet changes. I think that's great.

Protein is one of the nutrients for women. It supports the body in ways. Women experience hormonal changes during different life stages. These include menstruation, pregnancy and menopause. Experts say protein helps maintain muscle mass. It supports bone health. It improves metabolism. Keeps hormones balanced.

It also helps control hunger and cravings. This makes it easier to manage weight.

Protein is made up of acids. These include nine acids that the body cannot produce on its own. We need to get these nutrients from food sources.

Health experts believe that adding protein to meals can improve overall health. This is especially true for women managing work schedules and family responsibilities

The board has announced two changes. The first change is about making the question papers shorter. The second change is about taking action against people who cheat with answer sheets and marks.

The Maharashtra State Board of Secondary and Higher Secondary Education wants to make exams less stressful for students. The board chairman, Trigun Kulkarni says that the changes will help students and make the exams better.

Shorter Question Papers to Reduce Student Stress

The Maharashtra State Board of Secondary and Higher Secondary Education is planning to make the exam papers simpler and smaller.

Some question papers are very long up to 10 or 11 pages. This makes it hard for students to manage during exams. The long papers also cost a lot to print every year.

The Maharashtra State Board of Secondary and Higher Secondary Education spends around ₹30 crore on printing exam papers each year.

To fix this problem a special committee looked into the matter. Suggested a new way of doing things.

The new plan is to make question papers shorter three or four pages and print on both sides. This will save a lot of money 60% and use less paper.

Trigun Kulkarni says that the Maharashtra State Board of Secondary and Higher Secondary Education wants to make exams easier for students to understand and less stressful.

The new format will also make the questions easier to read. The main questions and sub-questions will be, on the page making the paper more organised.

The new format will have:

Better question sequencing

A clearer marking scheme

formatting

An improved numbering system

 Easy-to-read multiple-choice sections

The officials think that these changes will help students focus better during exams and avoid confusion.

Stricter Laws Against Exam Fraud and Mark Manipulation

The Maharashtra State Board of Secondary and Higher Secondary Education is also planning to take action against exam fraud.

The current law, the Maharashtra Prevention of Malpractices Act, 1982 mainly deals with paper leaks and cheating.In recent years there have been many cases of answer sheet tampering and fake revaluation.

The Maharashtra State Board of Secondary and Higher Secondary Education wants to make these crimes more serious.

Kulkarni says that the current laws are not strong enough. So the board is trying to change the laws.If the changes are approved people who cheat with answer sheets and marks can be. Punished without delay.

Education experts think that these changes can make the exams more transparent and fair.

The changes can help students by reducing pressure and making sure that people who cheat are punished.

Vir Das wrote about this on X saying that someone sitting near him on the plane put their foot on the wall by the window while people were eating their meals. He said this person also kept scratching one foot with the other for a time during the flight.

A lot of people on the internet were really grossed out by this story.

Vir Das asked a question in his post "What would you do if you were eating and the person next to you did this? They start scratching one foot with the other for like ten minutes. What do you do next?"

He said the person was sitting across from him and another person nearby was trying not to look and just keep eating.

The post had a picture of the persons foot on the wall of the plane by the window seat.

Genuine question. You’re eating a meal. Dude next to you does this. Starts scratching one foot with the other. For like ten mins. What are you doing next? This was across from me on the flight. Aisle seat, poor chap tried to look away and concentrate on his meal. You? pic.twitter.com/nhejtrvQtY

— Vir Das (@thevirdas) May 17, 2026

People on media had strong reactions to this story.

The post got a lot of attention online. Many people commented on it. A lot of people were upset about the lack of manners and cleanliness on the plane.

Some people said that if they saw someone doing this they would tell them to put their feet down. Others said the flight attendants should do something when people behave like this.

Many people, on media also said it is really important to keep public spaces clean and be respectful when you are traveling by air.

This story started a conversation again about how people should behave in public on planes.

Some people thought Vir Das did the thing by speaking up but others said these kinds of problems should be handled right away on the plane not by posting about them online later.

This report is based on social media posts and user reactions. The claims have not been independently verified.

 A woman from Noida who married a man she met on a dating app was found dead at her home. This happened than six months after they got married.

The woman was thirty one years old. She was found hanging in her home in the Katara Hills area of Bhopal on May 12. At first it seemed like she killed herself.. Now the police are investigating because they think her husband and his family might have hurt her.

The woman met her husband on a dating app in 2024. They started talking. Got married in December 2025. Her husband is a lawyer in Bhopal. His father used to be a judge.

After they got married the woman moved from Noida to Bhopal. She lived with her husband and his family in the Bagh Mugalia Extension-Katara Hills area.

The womans family says she was not happy in Bhopal. She wanted to go to Noida. She would call her family often. Talk to them. She even called her father thirty minutes before she died. She told him that her husband and his mother were being mean to her. The family says the husband also hit her.

The police first thought the woman killed herself.. The family said they did not think it was a suicide. They said the woman had injuries on her body. So the police started investigating. They are looking into the possibility that the woman was killed because of dowry.

The police have filed a case against the husband and his mother. A special team is investigating the case. They will look into all the allegations.

The family is not happy with the way the police are handling the case. They do not think the post-mortem examination was done correctly. They want another examination done at a hospital.

The family is very angry. They want justice. They held a protest outside the home of a man named Mohan Yadav in Bhopal. They want the government to take action.

The government has said they will do something about it.

The husbands father got bail from court. The husbands bail hearing is coming up soon.

This case is very sad. It shows that in families that are well educated and have money women can still be treated badly. The woman and her family are the victims, in this case. The woman and her family deserve justice.

 He took oath in a ceremony. The Governor of Kerala RV Arlekar was there to give him the oath. VD Satheesan and his team of ministers also took oath. There are 20 ministers in his team.

Many big leaders of the Congress party came to the ceremony. These leaders were Mallikarjun Kharge, Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi Vadra. They came to show that Kerala is important for the Congress party.

The Congress party is back in power in Kerala. They won the election. Removed the Left Democratic Front from power. VD Satheesan was a person in the Congress partys campaign. He got a lot of support from the party workers and the people of Kerala.

There were talks inside the Congress party about who should be the Chief Minister. Another leader, KC Venugopal was also considered for the job.. Finally the party chose VD Satheesan. This decision was made after talks between leaders like Sonia Gandhi and AK Antony.

Eleven ministers are from the Congress party. Some of the ministers are Ramesh Chennithala, K Muraleedharan, AP Anil Kumar and Sunny Joseph.

The Indian Union Muslim League got five positions in the cabinet. Leaders like PK Kunhalikutty and KM Shaji are part of the ministry. Other parties like Kerala Congress and Revolutionary Socialist Party also got positions.

Fourteen ministers in the government are new to the cabinet. This shows that the Congress party wants to do things. The new government will focus on governing the state developing it creating jobs and gaining the trust of the people again.

Ajinkya Rahane was born on 6 June 1988 in Ashwi KD village in the Ahmednagar district of Maharashtra. He belonged to a simple middle-class family that valued discipline, hard work, and education. Later, his family shifted to Dombivli near Mumbai, where Rahane spent most of his childhood.

From a very young age, Rahane showed a strong interest in cricket. Despite financial limitations, his parents supported his dreams and enrolled him in cricket coaching when he was only seven years old. He trained rigorously on matting wickets, which helped improve his timing and technical batting skills.

Rahane was known for being extremely disciplined and soft-spoken during his school years. Unlike many young cricketers who chased glamour, he focused entirely on improving his game. His coaches often praised his patience, work ethic, and calm attitude.

He completed his schooling at SV Joshi High School in Dombivli and later pursued a Bachelor of Commerce degree from V.G. Vaze College in Mumbai. Balancing education and cricket was not easy, but Rahane remained dedicated to both.

His humble upbringing played a major role in shaping his grounded personality, which later became one of his biggest strengths in international cricket.

Career Journey

Ajinkya Rahane began his professional cricket journey with Mumbai in domestic cricket in 2007. His consistent performances in the Ranji Trophy quickly caught the attention of selectors. He became known for his technically solid batting and ability to perform under pressure.

Rahane made his international debut for India in 2011. Initially, he faced tough competition in the Indian batting lineup, but his impressive performances in overseas tours helped him cement his place in the team. He scored memorable centuries in countries like Australia, England, New Zealand, and South Africa.

One of the biggest turning points in his career came during the 2020–21 Border-Gavaskar Trophy in Australia. After India suffered a heavy defeat in Adelaide and Virat Kohli returned home, Rahane took over captaincy responsibilities. Under his calm leadership, India made a stunning comeback and won the Test series 2–1, creating history.

Apart from international cricket, Rahane has played for several IPL teams including Rajasthan Royals, Rising Pune Supergiant, Delhi Capitals, Chennai Super Kings, Mumbai Indians, and Kolkata Knight Riders. His performances in the IPL have often been praised for maturity and consistency.

Recently, Rahane has been in the spotlight because of KKR’s poor IPL 2026 campaign, criticism surrounding his strike rate, and discussions about leadership decisions during crucial matches.

Professional Career

Ajinkya Rahane’s professional career is centered entirely around cricket. Over the years, he has represented India across all three formats(Tests, ODIs, and T20Is) and has built a reputation as one of India’s most dependable batters in overseas conditions.

Rahane became especially important in Test cricket because of his defensive technique, patience, and ability to anchor innings under pressure. He also served as vice-captain of the Indian Test team for several years.

In franchise cricket, Rahane became a popular IPL figure due to his calm leadership and adaptability. He captained Rajasthan Royals and later took leadership responsibilities with Kolkata Knight Riders during IPL 2026.

Apart from cricket, Rahane has invested in business ventures and brand collaborations. Despite his fame, he continues to maintain a low-profile public image and focuses on discipline, fitness, and family life.

Achievements & Awards

• Led India to a historic Border-Gavaskar Trophy win in Australia (2020–21)
• Scored 15 international centuries across formats
• Won the prestigious Mullagh Medal at the Melbourne Cricket Ground
• Represented India successfully for more than a decade across formats

Personal Life

Ajinkya Rahane is married to his childhood friend Radhika Dhopavkar. The couple tied the knot in September 2014 after knowing each other for many years. They are considered one of the most loved and low-key celebrity couples in Indian cricket.

The couple has two children, daughter Aarya Rahane and son Raghav Rahane. Rahane is known to prioritize family time despite his busy cricket schedule.

In his free time, Rahane enjoys reading autobiographies, listening to music, practicing karate, and spending time with loved ones. He also follows a vegetarian diet and strongly believes in fitness and mental discipline.

Unlike many celebrities, Rahane stays away from unnecessary media attention and controversies, which further strengthens his positive public image.

Net Worth

Ajinkya Rahane’s estimated net worth is around ₹80–85 crore as of 2026. His primary sources of income include BCCI contracts, IPL salaries, brand endorsements, match fees, and investments.

During IPL 2026, he reportedly earned around ₹1.5 crore from his franchise contract. Apart from cricket, Rahane also earns through advertisements, sponsorships, and business investments.

He owns luxurious properties in Mumbai and maintains a comfortable yet disciplined lifestyle. Despite financial success, Rahane is known for staying humble and grounded.

Lesser Known Facts About Ajinkya Rahane

• Ajinkya Rahane holds a Black Belt in Karate.
• He follows a vegetarian diet.
• India has never lost an international match in which Rahane scored a century.
• He is known for staying calm even in high-pressure situations.

The recognition is notable for several reasons, not least because it arrives without the scaffolding that typically precedes such moments for Indian technology firms. No venture capital. No overseas headquarters. No multinational parent. ExamOnline is a fully bootstrapped company, founded in Mumbai, that has delivered millions of assessment sessions across 35 countries - including the United States, United Kingdom, Germany, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, and Australia - entirely on the strength of its technology and execution track record.

What the Award Category Measures

The Best International Implementation category is among the most demanding on the e-Assessment Association's roster. It does not reward ambition or product design in isolation. It recognises demonstrable, at-scale delivery of assessment solutions across international jurisdictions - environments where regulatory complexity, multilingual requirements, connectivity variability, and compliance standards differ significantly from one geography to the next.

The 2026 conference theme - "The Trust Imperative: Innovation with Integrity" - reflects how the global assessment industry has moved its central question from 'can technology deliver examinations at scale' to 'can it do so with verifiable integrity and institutional accountability.' It is precisely that question that ExamOnline has spent 17 years building an answer to.

The platform operates on a fully in-house, proprietary AI architecture - no white-labelled proctoring engines, no dependency on third-party assessment frameworks. Its browser-based delivery model requires zero installation on the candidate's device, a design decision that has proven critical in markets where institutional IT infrastructure varies widely. An auto-save and session recovery mechanism ensures continuity even in low-connectivity environments - a feature that has been battle-tested across examinations in sub-Saharan Africa, South and Southeast Asia, and rural Europe.

ExamOnline's compliance posture - ISO 27001, ISO 9001, GDPR-compliant, and CERT-In certified - speaks directly to the kind of trust infrastructure that international assessment delivery demands. Universities in Finland cannot accept the same compliance documentation as certification bodies in Saudi Arabia. Enterprises in Australia operate under different privacy frameworks than government agencies in India. ExamOnline's architecture was built to navigate those differences simultaneously, not sequentially.

The Weight of the Stage

The International e-Assessment Conference and Awards Gala Dinner, organised by the e-Assessment Association (eAA), is anticipated to attract more than 400 delegates from over 27 countries, featuring an AI Symposium, senior policy discussions, and the awards ceremony where organisations from across the global assessment community present their most significant implementation work. Founded in 2008, the eAA has grown into a global network of more than 5,000 members, bringing together awarding organisations, technology providers, academics, certification bodies, and institutional leaders focused on advancing digital assessment practices worldwide.

Now in its tenth year, the awards celebrate the people, projects, and organisations driving assessment forward across education, professional certification, and the workplace. For an Indian platform to earn finalist recognition in this environment (alongside organisations from the UK, Europe, and North America with longstanding institutional relationships within the global assessment ecosystem) represents a different level of validation than domestic rankings or industry recognition.

ExamOnline’s client portfolio reflects that breadth and complexity, with deployments spanning university examinations, national medical licensing assessments, corporate bulk-hiring evaluations, government sector tests, and international educational olympiads across multiple geographies.

The Larger Signal

India has long contributed talent to the global assessment industry - engineers, psychometricians, and product specialists helping build digital examination systems used around the world. What ExamOnline’s finalist position represents is something less common: an Indian company building and owning its own assessment technology platform, and earning recognition for it in the market that helped define the category.

The winners will be announced at the Awards Gala Dinner in London on 9 June 2026. Regardless of the outcome, the shortlist itself has already made a point that needed making: serious assessment technology is no longer built only in Silicon Valley, London, or Amsterdam. Sometimes it is built in Mumbai - and delivered everywhere else.

Travel influencers Hazel Lindsey and Martin Bailey shared their journey on Instagram through a video titled “Sharing thoughts about travelling in India with a 2-month-old baby.” Along with their newborn son Alexander, the couple explored different parts of India and documented their experiences.

Indian Railways Made Their Journey Comfortable

The couple praised Indian Railways for being comfortable, affordable, and easy to use. According to them, trains in India are mostly on time and tickets can be booked easily through mobile apps. They said travelling by train became one of the smoothest parts of their India trip.

Although they admitted that some railway stations were crowded, they appreciated the availability of elevators and porters, which made travelling with heavy luggage and a baby much easier.

Baby Alexander Enjoyed the ‘Hustle and Bustle’

One surprising thing for the couple was how well their baby adapted to India’s busy environment. They shared that their son enjoyed the “hustle and bustle” and slept peacefully during train rides, auto-rickshaw journeys, and even while they had dinner outside.

The couple also highlighted the warm and loving nature of Indian people. They said many locals came forward to greet and cuddle their baby, making them feel welcomed everywhere they went.

Despite these small issues, the couple said India is “incredibly welcoming to infants.” They were touched by how restaurants often arranged cute cribs for their baby during dinner outings.

However, they also mentioned a few challenges during the trip. The February heat in South India was difficult at times, and they were extra careful about tap water hygiene while bathing their baby.

Keeping your heart healthy is not about how old you are. It is about the choices you make every day.

According to Dr Sanjay Bhojraj, a cardiologist your heart can get older faster or slower depending on how you live your life.

Your real age is based on when you were born.. Your biological age depends on how healthy your body is, including your heart organs and cells.

This means a 45-year- person who eats well and exercises may have a strong heart like someone much younger.

On the hand bad habits can make a young persons heart work like an older persons heart.

The goal is not to make time go backwards. It is to slow down how fast your heart gets older and keep it working well for long as possible.

 What Makes the Heart Age Faster?

Dr Bhojraj says many daily habits can make your heart get older faster. These include:

1. sleep

2. Stress

 3.Not exercising

4.Muscle strength

 5.High inflammation in the body

 6.Unhealthy eating

He says damage builds up slowly over time. Often you do not feel any symptoms until it becomes a health problem.

Many people think they are healthy just because they do not feel sick.

However Dr Bhojraj says hidden issues like stress, poor metabolism and inflammation can quietly affect your heart health.

 How to Keep Your Heart Younger

Dr Bhojraj suggests lifestyle changes that can improve your heart health and slow ageing:

1. Build Muscle Strength

Strength training helps your body work better and supports your heart. It also gives you energy.

2. Walk After Meals

Walking lightly after eating helps your blood move better. It also helps control your blood sugar levels. This reduces strain on your heart.

3. Manage Stress Better

Stress is one of the causes of heart ageing. You can try breathing, meditation or short breaks during the day.

4. Monitor Blood Pressure

Keeping your blood pressure under control is essential for long-term heart health. Regular check-ups are important.

5. Improve Overall Lifestyle

Focus on sleeping drinking enough water eating balanced meals and moving regularly.

Looking Beneath the Surface

The doctor also advises looking at health markers such, as:

Cholesterol levels

Insulin resistance

Inflammation markers

“Ashna’s poetic dialogue between India and France — where the handcrafted soul of Khadi meets the seductive glamour of the French Riviera.”

Rooted in the philosophy of conscious couture, the label proudly promotes handmade, eco-friendly and sustainable fashion, reviving the elegance of authentic Khadi through modern silhouettes and international runway expression. Every ensemble reflects artisanal excellence, ethical craftsmanship and the enduring beauty of Indian textile heritage.

As the glittering world of cinema, couture, and celebrity gathers beneath the golden skies of the French Riviera for Cannes Fashion Show 2026, celebrated Indian couture designer Ashna Vaswani is set to unveil a breathtaking vision of sustainable luxury and red-carpet elegance at the iconic Hôtel Barrière Le Majestic Cannes during the Cannes Film Festival.

Known for her signature fusion of regal Indian craftsmanship and contemporary international glamour, Ashna Vaswani’s Cannes showcase promises to be more than a fashion presentation — it is an artistic celebration of culture, couture, and conscious luxury. Against the backdrop of Mediterranean blues, flashing cameras, velvet evenings, and the world’s fashion elite, her collection is expected to transform the runway into a cinematic dreamscape of handcrafted opulence and Riviera sophistication.

In her recent interview with celebrity photographer Anshul Sharma, the designer beautifully described her upcoming showcase as “a poetic dialogue between India and France,” where timeless Indian artistry gracefully converses with Parisian elegance through fashion. Speaking passionately about sustainability and heritage craftsmanship, Ashna revealed how she is reimagining Khadi — India’s iconic handmade fabric — into luxurious couture silhouettes designed for the modern global red carpet.

The collection celebrates the romance between tradition and modernity, blending handcrafted Indian textiles, intricate embroidery, fluid drapes, and sculpted couture tailoring with the effortless sensuality associated with French luxury fashion. According to the designer, every silhouette has been carefully created to embody graceful femininity, conscious glamour, and timeless sophistication.

Ashna Vaswani emphasized that today’s fashion is no longer defined only by extravagance, but by authenticity, sustainability, and emotional storytelling. Her Cannes vision reflects a new era of eco-conscious couture where handmade Indian craftsmanship is elevated onto one of the world’s most glamorous international platforms. Flowing metallic textures, ethereal gowns, artisanal detailing, and contemporary red-carpet fusion are expected to define the visual language of her showcase.

As international media, luxury brands, and style icons descend upon Cannes for fashion’s most glamorous moments, Ashna Vaswani’s presence represents the growing global influence of Indian couture and sustainable handmade fashion. Her runway promises to embody elegance with meaning — where culture becomes couture, heritage becomes haute fashion, and sustainability becomes irresistibly glamorous.

 “From the royal textures of India to the luminous elegance of France, Ashna Vaswani brings a couture story stitched with passion.

Where Indian heritage meets global haute couture on the glamorous shores of the French Riviera.

Celebrated for timeless craftsmanship and refined contemporary aesthetics, Ashna Vaswani Design Khadi is set to showcase its signature sustainable luxury during the prestigious Cannes Fashion Show 2026, hosted alongside the

This showcase is more than fashion — it is a statement of mindful luxury where sustainability meets sophistication, and tradition walks confidently beside contemporary glamour.

From handcrafted textures to regal detailing, the collection celebrates the spirit of India while embracing the elegance of global fashion culture at one of the world’s most prestigious style destinations.

Rooted in Tradition. Designed for Tomorrow.

 Sustainable • Handmade • Eco-Friendly

 This is because of his appeal to citizens. He asked them to reduce travel due to global tensions and rising fuel concerns.

The problem started when Prime Minister Narendra Modi asked people to avoid foreign travel. He also asked them to postpone buying luxury things like gold and to use fuel. This is because of the situation in West Asia. Prime Minister Narendra Modi also encouraged citizens to use transport share cars with others and work from home when they can. This will help conserve resources and manage pressure.

Bhagwant Mann reacted to this appeal. He questioned Prime Minister Narendra Modis foreign visits. Bhagwant Mann said that while the government is asking citizens to cut down on travel Prime Minister Narendra Modi himself continues to go on trips. Prime Minister Narendra Modi had recently travelled to countries, including the Netherlands. He is also scheduled to go on foreign tours. Bhagwant Mann questioned the consistency of the message. He said that if citizens are expected to avoid travel the same rule should apply to leaders like Prime Minister Narendra Modi as well.

First Prime Minister Narendra Modi should stop his visits. He has asked people to avoid travel. He himself is going abroad. Bhagwant Mann said that leaders should reflect the discipline they expect from the public.

Bhagwant Mann also talked about the rising fuel prices. He criticized the government for increasing the prices of petrol and diesel. The prices were recently increased by ₹3 per litre. This is the hike in over four years. It is because of the changes in crude oil prices and the financial stress on fuel retailers.

Bhagwant Mann commented on Indias standing. He said that while India once wanted to become a "Vishwaguru" the current policies show a reality. He asked why other countries facing challenges do not have the same restrictions on fuel and travel.

The Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann also talked about the Special Intensive Revision of electoral rolls. It is scheduled from June 15 in Punjab. He said that it must be conducted transparently. Bhagwant Mann said that his party would closely watch the process. They will make sure that no eligible voter is removed and no fake entries are added.

Bhagwant Mann emphasized that if any political party raises concerns about the voter list accuracy the Election Commission of India should address them fairly and transparently. He stressed the importance of maintaining trust in the system.

Looking ahead to body elections Bhagwant Mann said that he is confident that his party will do well. He also mentioned that his party would welcome former minister Surjit Singh Rakhra into their party.

The situation between the Aam Aadmi Party and the central government is still tense. Issues like policy, economic decisions and electoral transparency are still being discussed. Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann and Prime Minister Narendra Modi have views, on these issues.

Kohli is one of the famous athletes in the world. He is always on camera during games, practice. Even when he is not playing.. He said that it is not always easy for players to have all these cameras around them.

He was talking on the RCB Podcast.Kohli said that practice should be a thing where players can try new things without worrying about what others think.

He said "You go to practice and there are six cameras following you. It does not feel good all." Kohli explained that players need to be free to try things and get ready for games without being watched all the time.

If everything is recorded players start to worry about what others think, during practice. This takes away their freedom to try things.

Kohli said that players should only be judged on how they play in games not on how they practice. What happens in practice should stay private. Not be talked about in public.

He said "I will not be able to try things in practice because I know everyone will be talking about it tomorrow." This shows how much pressure players are under because of media and always being watched.

Virat Kohli also talked about how big social media's in sports now. He said it is good for fans and for teams to promote themselves. It needs to be used carefully so players do not feel overwhelmed.

He thinks that the people in charge of the Premier League and the teams should make sure that players are comfortable with being filmed before they put cameras around them.

Kohli told a story about Kane Williamson.

 He said that when players are just talking the media can make it into a big thing because there are always cameras around.

He also talked about a robot that is used in Premier League games. It interrupted a conversation he was having with Williamson.

With all these concerns Virat Kohli is still playing very well. In the Indian Premier League season he has scored a lot of runs and i

His comments have started a discussion among fans and experts about how to balance entertainment, media coverage and player privacy in cricket.

Virat Kohli said that the Indian Premier League should make sure that players have some privacy. He said that players should be able to practice without being filmed all the time.

The Royal Challengers Bengaluru player said that this would help players to feel more comfortable and play better.

Virat Kohli is right that players need some time to themselves to get ready, for games. The Indian Premier League should listen to what Virat Kohli has to say.

Skill Education That Goes the Distance

In classrooms across 500-plus schools in 12 Indian states and the Middle East, one thing is consistent: every student who completes a skill module on Ulipsu produces something — a project, submitted, assessed, and tied directly to the certificate they earn. That is not incidental to how the platform works. That is the entire point.

When Ulipsu's founding team began building its curriculum eight years ago, they acted on a specific insight: turning learning into capability requires one step that most platforms skip — the moment a student stops consuming a lesson and starts building something with it. Ulipsu was designed to make that step unavoidable.

Today, Ulipsu reaches over five lakh students across its full network as of 2025-26. In the 2024-25 and 2025-26 academic years, students completed over 8.6 lakh hands-on projects and earned more than 1.28 lakh certifications across future-focused skill domains.

The Difference Between Knowing and Doing

Consuming a lesson and acquiring a skill are not the same thing. A student who has watched a series of videos on data science has encountered data science. A student who has collected a dataset, calculated moving averages, visualised outputs through charts, and written a structured report has used data science. The difference is not cosmetic — it is the difference between recognition and capability.

Ulipsu's curriculum was built on that distinction. Every module is designed so that learning leads somewhere tangible: not just to a certificate, but to something the student has made.

Three Stages. No Shortcuts.

Every skill module on Ulipsu follows a three-stage structure, and the third stage cannot be skipped.

Students begin with video-based, gamified lessons that deliver real-time feedback as they learn. They then move through game-based evaluations that test genuine understanding rather than rote recall. The third stage is the project: a hands-on challenge in which the student builds something using what they have learned, submits it through the platform, and has it reviewed by their teacher.

Learn. Demonstrate understanding. Build. That sequence holds across every module from Grade 1 to Grade 10. The project is embedded into the evaluation structure of every module and is directly tied to the internationally accredited certificate the student receives upon completion.

What Students Actually Build

Across Ulipsu's 16-plus skill modules, the project briefs are grounded in real-world challenges scaled to the school level. Students in the Data Science module collect datasets, calculate moving averages, and document their findings in structured reports. In the Coding module, more than 15,000 students created games using block-based coding platforms over the past two years, while over 5,000 built interactive storytelling projects combining narrative thinking with code logic.

In the Artificial Intelligence module, more than 3,100 students from higher grades completed Python-based projects, while nearly 6,000 built AI-powered solutions integrating concepts from artificial intelligence and data science. The Entrepreneurship module produced more than 55,000 startup and business concept submissions, alongside thousands of financial simulation and business decision-making projects built around real-world scenarios.

Every submission is recorded on the student's individual Skill Report — a detailed document capturing assessment performance and project completions across every module completed. By the time a student reaches Class 10, their Skill Portfolio is not a list of certificates. It is a documented record of things they have built.

A Certificate That Means Something

Each student who completes a skill module — including its assessed project — receives an internationally accredited certificate co-branded with ISTE, recognised across 127 countries, and STEM.org, trusted in 80 countries. These credentials accumulate into a Skill Portfolio: a verifiable, evidence-backed record of applied learning that travels with the student throughout their academic career.

For school leaders, the Skill Portfolio also addresses a practical priority: NEP 2020, India's National Education Policy, places explicit emphasis on skills-based, experiential learning outcomes. Ulipsu's documented project records give schools a concrete, verifiable way to demonstrate that their students are meeting those goals — not through certificates alone, but through work produced and assessed in the classroom.

"We wanted the certificate to mean something," said Nikhil K B, co-founder and CTO. "A student's Skill Portfolio shows what they built, how they performed in assessments, and certifications aligned with recognised international accreditation standards. That is a very different conversation from a certificate that simply says they watched 12 videos."

Every Student Gets There

When project work is optional, a predictable pattern emerges. Students who complete projects tend to be those who already have engaged parents, self-directed motivation, and time outside school hours to invest. Optionality, in most school environments, tends to benefit those who already have access — not those who need the opportunity most.

Ulipsu's model removes that optionality entirely. The project is built into the curriculum. It is delivered during school hours and assessed by the teacher using a structured evaluation framework built into the platform. Every enrolled student completes it.

This has particular significance in Ulipsu's government school deployments, which span 200 institutions serving 1.5 lakh students — many from first-generation learner households where after-school enrichment is simply not available. For these students, the embedded project component is the mechanism that takes their learning all the way to application, within the single point of access they have.

Building Deeper, Reaching Further

For Ulipsu, the next phase means expanding further across government schools, private institutions, and CSR-led education initiatives, ensuring that every student who completes a module gains a skill they can demonstrate, not just a certificate they can display.

The measure Ulipsu holds itself to is not the number of certificates issued or schools onboarded, it is whether students completing its modules can demonstrate their skills in practice. Not in theory. Not under recall conditions. Through work they have produced, submitted, and had assessed.

That structural commitment was made eight years ago. Over 10 lakh projects completed since then are evidence.

At the heart of this massive poetic compilation lies the deeply emotional and universal theme of “Maa Ki Mamta” — a tribute to a mother’s unconditional love, sacrifice, and nurturing spirit. A significant portion of the collection celebrates motherhood and the invaluable role mothers play in shaping families and society. Alongside this central theme, the book also explores fatherhood, sibling relationships, love, sacrifice, respect for women, the dignity and struggles of farmers, and the importance of social and cultural values. Each poem contributes to a larger narrative that aims to inspire positivity, strengthen human relationships, and preserve the essence of Indian culture for future generations.

The unprecedented scale of compiling 5121 poems into a single volume makes this initiative truly exceptional. Literary experts believe the collection has the potential to be officially recognized as the World’s Biggest Poem Book, setting a new global benchmark in literature. Such an achievement not only highlights India’s rich literary heritage but also showcases the nation’s creative vision and cultural leadership on the world stage. The project stands as a shining example of how collective creativity can result in something both historic and impactful.

This extraordinary initiative has been driven by the visionary leadership of C.A. (Dr.) Shankar Ghanshamdas Andani, a distinguished literary figure, social reformer, and advocate for Indian languages and culture. Guided by his principle, “Bhasha Seva, Sahitya Seva,” Dr. Andani has consistently worked toward promoting Indian literature on a global platform. His efforts are particularly significant in preserving and promoting Sindhi language and literature, ensuring that traditional linguistic and cultural identities continue to thrive in modern times. Through his work, he has created a platform for countless voices, emotions, and ideas that may otherwise have remained unheard.

Dr. Andani’s remarkable journey is marked by extraordinary achievements that reflect both his literary excellence and social commitment. He has received more than 3180 national and international awards, created 151 world records, and been honored with 115 honorary doctorates. As the author of 55 books and a mentor who has guided over 500,000 farmers, his contributions extend far beyond literature into education, empowerment, and community development. These accomplishments establish him as a multifaceted personality dedicated to knowledge sharing and social transformation.

This 5121-poem collection is not merely an attempt to set a record; it is the beginning of a larger literary and cultural movement. By bringing together thousands of poems under one platform, the initiative reinforces the idea that literature can serve as a collective force capable of preserving culture, inspiring individuals, and strengthening society. It sends a powerful message to future generations that creativity combined with purpose can lead to extraordinary outcomes and timeless contributions.

The grand launch event on May 30, 2026, is expected to be a landmark occasion, bringing together renowned literary personalities, artists, scholars, and dignitaries from across the country. The event will celebrate not just the unveiling of a book, but the realization of a vision that unites thousands of emotions and voices into one powerful expression of humanity and culture.

As India prepares to present this monumental poetry collection to the world, it reaffirms the enduring importance of literature as a force for cultural identity, emotional connection, and social growth. This historic initiative stands as proof that when creativity meets purpose, it can create something timeless — something that not only sets records but also touches hearts across generations.

Her recent releases, including the patriotic anthem “Man Jan Gan Man Gayega” and songs from her album AKS – Reflections in Melody (2026), are steadily establishing her as a fresh lyrical voice in the independent music space.

Q: Yojna, your journey from scientist to artist sounds unconventional. How did music happen?

Music was never a dramatic shift for me. Poetry came first. Writing has always been my most natural form of emotional expression. Even while working in science, technology, and healthcare innovation, I was constantly observing people, emotions, relationships, and identity.

Eventually, poetry alone no longer felt enough. I wanted emotions to travel through melody, not just words. That led me into songwriting, then composition, and gradually into music production as well, because I wanted creative ownership of the complete emotional experience. Over time, many of those reflections and observations started transforming into songs.

People often see science and art as completely different worlds. I see strong similarities between them. Both demand observation, depth, discipline, curiosity, and the ability to understand human experience at a deeper level.

Q: Your patriotic song “Man Jan Gan Man Gayega” is being called the first NRI anthem song. What inspired it?

Living outside India changes your relationship with patriotism. In many ways, distance makes your roots feel even deeper and more emotional.

“Man Jan Gan Man Gayega” was born from that feeling — the quiet yet powerful patriotism of NRIs who carry India within their memories, language, culture, and everyday identity, regardless of where they live in the world.

The audio version of the song was released on 26 January on my YouTube channel, “Writefully Yours with Yojna,” while the official music video is currently in post-production and is scheduled for a worldwide release on 15 August.

The project is supported by “Neha Couture” as the Cultural Ambassador and “Berlin Indiawale” as the Community Partner. The cinematography has been led by Ashutosh Bhandari and Shaishav Bhatt, with performances by more than 30 NRIs featured in the video.

At its core, the song carries one message: India is not just a place - it is an emotion that travels across borders and generations.

Q: Tell us about your album AKS – Reflections in Melody (2026).

AKS is deeply personal. The word itself means “reflection,” and the album explores different emotional mirrors of life — love, silence, longing, nostalgia, healing, and human connection.

So far, two songs from the album have been released — “Chain Ki Neend” and “Har Ek Lamha.”

Four more songs are scheduled to release soon.

Q: You are writing lyrics, composing, and producing your music yourself. What has been the biggest challenge?

The biggest challenge has probably been being taken seriously.

I come from a background in science, healthcare, and technology—not from the traditional film or music industry ecosystem. So when people see someone independently writing, composing, and producing their own music, there is often initial skepticism about depth, training, or artistic seriousness.

But I think the industry is changing. Audiences today respond less to labels and more to emotional honesty. If a song genuinely makes people feel something, they connect with it regardless of where the artist comes from.

Another challenge is resisting the pressure to create only what is commercially predictable or algorithm-friendly. I’m not interested in making interchangeable music designed purely for trends. Some of my work is deeply poetic & ghazal-inspired, some patriotic, and some is contemporary. What matters to me is that every song feels emotionally truthful and creatively intentional.

Q: What is your “secret sauce” behind managing such diverse creative and professional worlds?

Following your passion despite uncertainty, being willing to take risks, and staying consistent for years.

I no longer see my worlds as separate. The scientist in me brings structure, the entrepreneur brings resilience, and the artist brings emotion. They all feed each other.

People often see the outcome, not the years of learning, experimenting, failing, and continuing anyway. Consistency matters far more than people think.

Thank you very much for this conversation.

*Note: With multiple upcoming releases from AKS – Reflections in Melody (2026), Dr. Yojna Jain is steadily emerging as a multidimensional creative voice - blending poetry, melody, and storytelling into music that values emotional depth over noise.

New Delhi [India], May 15: There is a particular kind of glamour that doesn’t announce itself. It lingers. It trails behind a silk saree as it leaves the room, settles into the collar of a tuxedo long after midnight, and stays on a wrist twelve hours after application. That kind of glamour, increasingly, is being bottled in India — not in alcohol-based sprays, but in concentrated, oil-based attars.

Heritage Delhi fragrance house Zam Zam Perfumers, in the craft since 1991, has unveiled Hayaam — a 20 ml unisex fragrance oil that arrives just as India’s most discerning beauty buyers are rediscovering the attar as the ultimate luxury indulgence.

The Scent of a Leading Lady

Hayaam opens with a soft fruity-floral flourish before settling into a warm bed of woody and amber undertones. The result is a fragrance that behaves cinematically — an entrance, a middle act, and a memorable closing sequence on the skin. Presented in a gold-accented bottle that earns its place on any vanity, it sits squarely in the beauty-luxury bracket, joining a wider renaissance moment for Indian attars among celebrities, stylists, and beauty editors who now admit their signature scent is an oil, not a spray.

Why Beauty Insiders Are Switching to Attars

Longevity that survives a long day on set. Concentrated oils sit on warm pulse points and develop slowly through the day — a backstage favourite for long shoots, weddings, and travel.

A scent that’s yours alone. Attars react with body chemistry rather than projecting in a uniform cloud, so two people wearing the same fragrance will never smell identical. For an industry obsessed with individuality, that’s the dream.

Skin-kind, alcohol-free formulation. Zam Zam’s entire catalogue is 100 per cent non-alcoholic and hygienically prepared — a quiet relief for sensitive skin and anyone who prefers their luxury without the burn.

The Elysian Effect

Hayaam arrives alongside Zam Zam’s flagship Elysian Collection — a premium luxury line that has quickly become the brand’s most talked-about edit. Each Elysian fragrance is named in Urdu or Arabic, and each name carries an emotion the perfumer has tried to translate into scent. Kalimat (‘words’) layers amber, rose, and oudh into the collection’s best-seller. Adab (‘grace’) weaves citrus and florals with a refined Arabic touch and a twelve-hour wear. Ehsas (‘a feeling’) is a clean white-floral that wears like fresh linen. Ilhaam (‘inspiration’) leans smoky and oudh-rich, made for after-parties. And Passion, an oriental floral, is built for moments that demand presence.

Together, Hayaam and Elysian signal a clear shift: India’s luxury fragrance conversation is no longer being led from Paris or Dubai alone. It is being written, increasingly, in Nizamuddin.

From Nizamuddin to Mumbai

Zam Zam Perfumers currently operates flagship stores in Hazrat Nizamuddin, Jama Masjid, and Jafrabad in Delhi, alongside retail in Jammu & Kashmir and a thriving online presence. The house is now preparing to open its first store in the Mumbai region — at Mumbra, Thane — marking its most significant retail expansion to date and bringing the full Elysian Collection within reach of the city that, more than any other, sets India’s beauty agenda.

The Trousseau, Reimagined

As wedding season builds, brides and grooms are reconsidering the trousseau. The imported eau de parfum is no longer the default; the heirloom-worthy attar, in gold-accented packaging, is back in conversation — prized for the way it lingers on a dupatta, layers under jewellery, and travels intimately on warm skin. Hayaam, with its unisex composition and gifting-ready presentation, is built for exactly this audience, with the Elysian Collection offering a tighter, ultra-premium edit for those building a fragrance wardrobe with serious intent.

There is something delightfully old-world about choosing a scent that develops on you over hours rather than arriving in a single spray. It is the same instinct that draws audiences back to slow cinema, hand-loomed textiles, and bespoke jewellery: the desire for craft that takes its time. On current evidence, India’s beauty-luxury consumer is ready for exactly that.

Hayaam (20 ml) and the Elysian Collection are available at Zam Zam Perfumers’ retail stores in Delhi and Jammu & Kashmir, online at zamzamperfumers.com, and shortly at the brand’s first Mumbai-region store at Mumbra, Thane.

The lawyer, Gaurav Mishra, shared his experience on LinkedIn and claimed that the airline gave his family “random jumbled seats” even though all three passengers were travelling under the same booking and PNR.

According to Mishra, he paid around ₹44,000 for the tickets but was still not given seats together. He alleged that the airline expected passengers to pay extra for seat selection.

He also claimed that the move violated DGCA rules. Sharing a screenshot of the guideline, Mishra pointed out that airlines must ensure children up to 12 years old are seated with at least one parent or guardian if they are travelling under the same booking.

“In my case they forced my 3-year-old kid to sit unaccompanied despite the turbulence-prone Bagdogra to Kolkata route,” he wrote. He further added that the child felt emotionally disturbed during the journey.

IndiGo Responds

Reacting to the complaint, IndiGo apologised for the inconvenience caused to the family.

The airline explained that during the first part of the journey, seats 29A and 29B were already occupied by another mother and child, while Mishra’s family received seats 29C and 29D in the same row. For the second flight, the family was seated together on seats 28A and 28B.

IndiGo also stated that they tried contacting Mishra to discuss the issue further and assured that the feedback had been shared with the concerned team.

Social Media Reacts

The incident quickly sparked debate online, with many users slamming airlines for separating families during flights unless passengers pay extra for preferred seats.

One user called the situation “pathetic and insensitive,” while another said forcing a toddler to sit separately was both a safety and emotional concern.

Some users also claimed that several airlines now intentionally separate families and senior citizens during seat allocation to encourage paid seat selection.

The incident has once again raised questions about airline seating policies and whether families travelling with young children should automatically be seated together without extra charges.

With modern homes featuring imported marble, designer furniture, luxury upholstery, and statement surfaces, the challenge of maintaining pristine interiors against stains, scratches, heat marks, and everyday wear has become more significant than ever. Industry experts note that this shift in consumer behaviour has accelerated the demand for sophisticated surface protection systems that combine durability with aesthetics — a space where STONEKRAFT continues to establish strong market leadership.

STONEKRAFT’s premium Surface Protection Film acts as an invisible protective layer designed to safeguard delicate and high-value surfaces without compromising their natural appearance. Widely applied on marble dining tables, kitchen countertops, bar counters, wardrobes, and luxury surfaces, the film offers resistance against stains, scratches, heat exposure, and daily wear while maintaining the original elegance of the material beneath.

Designed specifically for contemporary lifestyles, the protection film has become increasingly popular among homeowners who seek low-maintenance living without sacrificing aesthetics. Customers frequently highlight the peace of mind it offers, especially in homes with children, guests, and high-usage areas where preserving expensive interiors becomes a constant concern.

In addition to surface films, STONEKRAFT’s advanced Nano Coating technology has also gained substantial traction in Mumbai’s premium housing segment. The ultra-thin invisible coating creates a powerful liquid- and stain-repellent barrier over fabrics, upholstery, rugs, dining chairs, luxury handbags, sneakers, and soft furnishings while retaining their original texture, softness, and appearance.

Particularly suited for Indian climatic conditions, the nano coating helps protect surfaces from moisture, spills, dust accumulation, and everyday exposure, making maintenance significantly easier for homeowners. With warranties of up to five years on Surface Protection Film and up to 12 months on Nano Coating applications, STONEKRAFT’s solutions are increasingly being viewed as long-term investments rather than short-term treatments.

The brand’s growth trajectory reflects its rapidly increasing acceptance within Mumbai’s luxury interior market. STONEKRAFT has successfully completed over 900 projects across more than 40,000 square feet, with clients frequently praising the brand’s professional execution, detailing standards, and premium finish quality.

The growing collaboration between architects, interior designers, and STONEKRAFT further indicates a larger industry shift, where surface protection is no longer considered an afterthought but an integral component of modern interior planning. What was once associated only with ultra-luxury residences is now becoming a preferred standard across premium urban homes seeking durability, practicality, and timeless aesthetics.

As Mumbai continues to expand as one of India’s leading luxury real estate and design markets, industry observers anticipate sustained growth in the demand for advanced surface protection solutions. With consumers becoming increasingly conscious about preserving interior investments, brands like STONEKRAFT are positioned at the forefront of this evolving lifestyle category.

Amazon Ashray Begins Supporting Delivery Associates During Summer

Amazon Ashray is starting to create a positive impact among delivery associates who spend long hours on the road during the summer season. At a time when discussions around the future of work largely focus on technology, speed and business growth, Amazon is bringing attention to the importance of supporting people and their wellbeing through practical steps.

Delivery Associates Find Relief During Extreme Heat Conditions

For delivery associates working under extreme heat conditions, even a short break in a cool and air-conditioned place is making a noticeable difference.

‘This was such a good experience. We can have AC facility, resting space, drinking water, phone charging option which is nice’, a Delivery Partner said.

Amazon Expands Rest and Recovery Support Through Ashray

Amazon designed Ashray facilities as rest and recovery spaces for delivery associates. Delivery associates from different platforms are using these facilities throughout the day, especially during peak afternoon heat. Early responses show a growing need for support systems that focus on comfort, hydration and wellbeing for the people who keep daily deliveries moving.

Drawing from extensive historical research while masterfully blending fact with fiction, The Jhelum Betrayal transports readers into an era marked by political conspiracies, royal rivalries, forbidden ambitions, and emotional betrayal.

The story unfolds during the reign of Emperor Jahangir, a ruler often remembered as much for his indulgence in wine and opium as for his imperial authority. Amid a court consumed by excess, shifting loyalties, and dangerous power struggles, a young and ambitious Prince Khurram emerges as a formidable force within the Mughal dynasty.

Khurram’s military campaign against Rana Amar Singh of Mewar becomes a turning point in his rise to prominence. Following his success in subjugating Mewar, he is declared the Wali Ahad — the heir apparent to the Mughal throne — after his elder brother Prince Khusrau rebels against Jahangir and suffers the brutal punishment of blinding for treachery.

(An illustration of Nurjahan and her mysterious past drawn from the novel.)

However, the Mughal court grows even more mysterious with the arrival of Nurjahan in 1611, after her marriage to Jahangir. The novel raises haunting questions surrounding her identity and past. Was she truly the widow of Sher Afghan, or was there a far deeper and darker mystery behind the woman who would become one of the most powerful figures in Mughal history?

The narrative intensifies with the shocking murder of Prince Khusrau at Burhanpur — allegedly orchestrated by the ambitious Khurram himself. This single act becomes the catalyst for a chain of betrayals, rebellions, and emotional fractures that eventually pit son against father.

In another defining moment of Mughal history, Khurram marries Arjumand Bano in 1612 — the woman immortalized in history as Mumtaz Mahal. Their union lays the emotional foundation for what would later become the legendary Taj Mahal, one of the world’s greatest monuments to love.

As the empire spirals through betrayal and ambition, Jahangir’s final years are portrayed with emotional depth — a lonely emperor alienated from his son, emotionally shattered, and surrounded by the calculated affection of the politically driven Nurjahan.

What truly sets The Jhelum Betrayal apart is its explosive finale, which promises to challenge conventional perceptions of Mughal history and leave readers questioning everything they thought they knew about the era.

Together, The Jhelum Betrayal and its prequel Daggers of Treason offer readers a gripping literary experience that uncovers the hidden layers of Mughal politics, dynastic conflicts, and personal tragedies. Rich in detail, suspense, and historical texture, the series stands out as an immersive journey into one of India’s most fascinating imperial periods.

Operating out of two dedicated hospitals in Thane and Khar, Mumbai, SunAct brings together some of the country’s leading oncologists and haematologists under one roof. The hospital offers advanced cancer and blood disorder care, giving patients and families access to expert treatment, support, and hope closer to home.

The Doctors Behind It

SunAct was co-founded by two physicians who, between them, have spent decades working at institutions like Tata Memorial Centre and training at some of India's most respected medical colleges.

Dr. (Prof.) Vijay Patil, co-founder and medical oncologist, has over two decades of clinical and research experience in solid tumours and next-generation cancer therapies. He has more than 750 peer-reviewed publications in journals like The Lancet Global Health and the Journal of Clinical Oncology.

Dr. Ashay Karpe, co-founder and haemato-oncologist, brings 23 years of experience focused on blood cancers, cellular therapies, and stem cell transplantation.

What SunAct Treats and How

SunAct offers a range of advanced cancer treatments across both its Mumbai facilities. Each of these is backed by specialist oversight, and each patient is individually evaluated before any treatment plan is finalised.

CAR-T Cell Therapy for Leukaemia and Blood Cancers

When leukaemia comes back after chemotherapy, families often feel like they have run out of road. CAR-T cell therapy for leukaemia in India at SunAct is one of the most significant treatments available for exactly these patients. It uses the patient's own immune cells, reprogrammed to find and destroy the cancer cells that nothing else has been able to reach.

High-Dose IL-2 for Metastatic Kidney Cancer

Most treatments for metastatic kidney cancer are designed to slow things down. High-Dose Interleukin-2, which is a specialized immunotherapy, takes a different approach entirely. In select patients, it has produced complete, long-term remissions, not disease control, but actual remission lasting years without any ongoing therapy.

SunAct now offers HD IL-2 treatment for metastatic kidney cancer in India, with dedicated ICU-level monitoring and the specialist experience this treatment requires. Not every patient qualifies, and the team is clear about that from day one. But for those who do, the outcomes can be unlike anything else on offer.

Bone Marrow and Stem Cell Transplantation

Bone Marrow Transplantation (BMT) remains one of the most powerful treatments for certain oncology and hematological conditions. SunAct’s transplant programme operates in a sterile, controlled environment built specifically for the complexity this procedure demands. Patients receive transplant care within the same centre, with the same team and without needing to move between facilities.

Immunotherapy

Immunotherapy at SunAct covers a broad range of treatments that work by helping the body's own immune system fight cancer more effectively. For many patients across different cancer types, immunotherapy has changed what long-term outcomes look like. At SunAct, it is delivered with the same individual assessment and specialist review that applies to every treatment the centre offers.

Targeted Therapy

Targeted therapy works by identifying specific features of cancer cells and attacking those features directly, rather than broadly. The advantage is precision. For patients whose cancer has a specific genetic or molecular profile, targeted therapy often produces better results with fewer side effects than conventional treatment. SunAct's oncology team assesses each patient's profile and builds a plan around it.

Chemotherapy

Chemotherapy at SunAct is administered within the same specialist-led environment as everything else the centre does. Whether it is being used as a primary treatment or in combination with newer therapies, it is delivered with the same level of monitoring and care, in a facility designed around patient comfort and safety.

Paediatric & Adult Haematology, Oncology, and BMT

A diagnosis of a serious blood disorder or cancer can be overwhelming at any stage of life — for both patients and the families standing beside them. SunAct’s Haematology, Oncology, and BMT programme is designed to provide specialised care for both children and adults, with treatment plans tailored to each patient’s medical needs, overall health, and quality of life.

Why Families Choose SunAct

There are a few things that come up consistently when patients talk about why they came to SunAct, or why they stayed.

Everything in one place. Both centres in Mumbai are equipped for the full range of treatments SunAct offers. Patients are not being moved between hospitals or handed between care teams. The same specialists who assess a patient are the ones who treat them.

Access without having to leave India. Treatments like CAR-T therapy and HD IL-2 used to mean international travel for anyone serious about pursuing them. That is no longer the case. SunAct has built the infrastructure to deliver these therapies here, at a cost that does not require a patient to liquidate everything they have.

Honest conversations from the start. Not every patient who walks into SunAct is eligible for every treatment. The team is straightforward about that. If a newer therapy is not the right fit, the conversation moves to what is. The goal is always the best outcome for that specific patient, not a one-size-fits-all protocol.

A facility designed with purpose. SunAct's isolation rooms, sterile environments, and monitoring setups are not general hospital infrastructure that has been adapted. They were built specifically for the kinds of most advanced treatments the centre delivers.

Under the visionary leadership of our Founder Mrs. Neeru Jain and Director Mr. Ayush Jain, Défilé de Mode Season 5 became a grand celebration of talent, style, and storytelling.

We were honoured to have our esteemed Jury Members — Jay Lapasia & Shimanshi Priya — whose valuable presence and critiques brought great clarity to the students and elevated the show even further.

Special gratitude to our Brand Ambassador Shubh Malhotra and our glamorous Chief Guest, actress Jyoti Tiwari, for making the evening even more iconic with their presence.

Many students said the hostel rooms feel extremely small. One student described them as "matchbox rooms" where students are packed tightly. According to students the number of admissions has increased over the few years but hostel space and facilities have not kept up.

A female student said bunk beds take up so much space that ceiling fans do not work properly. She also claimed some table fans fixed to the walls had fallen off. Students staying in the women’s hostels also spoke about cleanliness problems and lack of water supply. In the Yamuna hostel, around 36 students reportedly share three washrooms. Some students said managing cleanliness has become very hard because water supply is often irregular.

Students also raised concerns about safety on campus. Since construction work is going on inside the university, students claimed there have been dangerous incidents recently. According to students, a concrete slab reportedly fell from the New Academic Block in April shortly before classes were supposed to start. In another incident, a lift in a boys’ hostel allegedly dropped two floors suddenly. Students also claimed that pieces of concrete have fallen from hostel ceilings.

Female students further alleged that weak boundary walls around the campus have led to trespassing incidents and cases of harassment The protest started after students said their complaints had been ignored for months. Students gathered at the basketball court and demanded immediate action from the administration.

Students claimed that the Vice Chancellor did not meet them during the late-night protest on May 13. Later, an "Open House" meeting was held where the VC reportedly listened to students but did not answer questions directly.

According to students, the administration said written responses would be given in 7–10 days. Protesters called the delay unacceptable and said the issues had already been raised many times before. After the meeting, students sent an email demanding action and accountability. They also clarified that the protest is now a campus-wide issue and not limited to women’s hostels.

The protest continued on May 14 with students raising concerns over overcrowded rooms, electricity cuts, water shortages and lack of proper facilities. While the university website mentions facilities like 24x7 electricity, internet, hot water and laundry, students claimed frequent power and internet interruptions are common.

Some students also expressed concern that incoming first-year students may be shifted to off-campus accommodation due to shortage of hostel space. They argued that this may not be safe for young women students. So far, the National Law School of India University (NLSIU) has not officially responded to the allegations made by the students.

Most articles about this spend three paragraphs explaining what a basis point is, then tell you the market is “well-positioned.” You close the tab. Nothing changes.

This isn’t that article.

The RBI cut rates four times through 2025, bringing the repo rate to 5.25 percent. In 2026, they’ll hold. Inflation is sitting quietly within the target. GDP growth is projected to be close to 7 percent. The MPC is watching. Fine.

But for anyone sitting on a serious portfolio — a family office, a multifamily office, or a business family with wealth spread across asset classes — this completed easing cycle has real consequences that most people haven’t fully acted on yet. Some of those consequences are opportunities. A few are quiet risks building up without much fanfare.

Here’s what actually matters.

Key Takeaways

• The rate-cut rally is largely priced in. Markets moved in anticipation, not confirmation. Rebalancing late means chasing, not entering.
• Cash and short-term deposits now carry reinvestment risk. Each rollover earns less than the one before. This is slow but real.
• Quality fixed income with some duration is the cleaner play right now — G-Secs, SDLs, and AAA-rated paper through PMS or AIF structures.
• Large-cap equities in rate-sensitive sectors make more sense than chasing mid-and small-caps that have already run hard.
• REITs and INVITs deserve a fresh look. They behave differently from direct property, with better liquidity and income predictability.
• A portfolio entirely in INR carries currency risk that is invisible in good years and very visible in bad ones. Offshore allocation through the LRS is risk management, not a luxury.

Why the Rate-Cut Rally Is Already in the Price

Markets don’t wait for permission.

By the time the RBI was halfway through its cutting cycle, mid- and small-cap indices had already moved. Bond yields had already compressed. The re-rating happened in anticipation, not in confirmation.

So if you’re a UHNI, or a family office in India, still holding the same allocation you had when rates were at 6.5 percent — waiting for “more clarity” before doing anything — the real risk is that you rebalance into a market that has already priced in the good news.

You miss the entry, and then you chase.

India’s macro backdrop is genuinely solid right now. Inflation has dropped toward the lower end of the 2 to 6 percent target band. The RBI backed rate cuts with liquidity operations, bond purchases, and FX swaps. Growth is holding up. This is not manufactured optimism.

But strong macro and good entry points are two separate things. Confusing them is where portfolios get hurt.

The job now is not to decide whether India’s economy looks healthy. It does. The job is to figure out — given where prices already are — where the real opportunities still exist and where people are overpaying on sentiment.

At Alpha Capital, this is the exact conversation we are having with family offices and multi family offices across India right now.

How to Fix Reinvestment Risk in Your Fixed Income Book

Here’s something that sounds wrong but is correct: after a rate-cutting cycle, holding a lot of money in liquid funds and short-tenor deposits is one of the riskier things you can do.

Not risky in a dramatic way. Risky in the slow, grinding way, where each rollover earns you a little less than the one before.

That’s reinvestment risk. In a falling-rate environment, it compounds.

A family office or business family sitting on 20 or 30 percent of their wealth in cash equivalents right now needs to ask a simple question: What yield will I earn when this rolls over in six months? The honest answer is probably lower than today. And the one after that, lower still, if the RBI moves again.

The better move is to shift at least part of that liquidity into quality fixed income with some duration. Not everything at once. But thoughtfully, and with a view that the window for decent yields on good paper is narrower than it was 18 months ago.

What that looks like practically:

• G-Secs and State Development Loans (SDLs): The cleanest option for locking in yield at sovereign quality. Target-maturity funds and passive debt ETFs make access easier than holding bonds directly.
• AAA-rated paper: Public sector bonds and high-quality corporate debt through PMS or AIF structures. The spreads over cash are still meaningful right now.
• How you hold it matters: Depending on your tax situation, the structure around these instruments can make a real difference to post-tax returns.                                                                                                                             

None of this is exotic. It’s just not sitting in a savings account earning 6.5 percent when the next rollover will offer 5.8.

Which Equity Sectors Benefit From Rate Cuts (And Where to Be Careful)

Banking, NBFCs, real estate, autos, building materials, capital goods — these sectors have a genuine tailwind from lower rates. Cheaper funding costs, stronger credit demand, improved affordability for end buyers. If you want to tilt your equity book toward sectors that benefit from this environment, that list is a reasonable starting point.

But here’s where it gets important: the mid- and small-cap space has already moved a lot.

These are the segments that attract the most aggressive flows after rate cuts. Retail money pours in. Valuations stretch. Stocks trade at multiples that only make sense if the next five years of earnings growth all happen on schedule, with no disruptions.

That’s not a reason to avoid these segments entirely. It is a reason to be careful about how much you’re allocating, and at what prices.

For most UHNIs, and for the family offices in India we advise, the sensible structure is: a core position in quality large-caps with strong balance sheets and proven management, and a smaller satellite allocation in mid- and small-caps for growth potential. The satellite should not become the core just because a few names have done well recently.

Practically, that means:

• Don’t add to mid- and small-cap positions that are already at full valuation. Wait.
• Use corrections as entry points rather than momentum as the signal.
• In the large-cap core, focus on companies where earnings growth is visible, not just possible.

Good macro lifts most things temporarily. Earnings quality is what separates a holding from a trade.

The wealth management services at Alpha Capital are built around exactly this kind of portfolio-level thinking — across single-family offices, multifamily offices, and large UHNI mandates.

Real Assets, REITs, and Private Equity: What the Rate Environment Changes

When interest rates fall by 125 basis points, and transmission works through lending rates, a few things happen to real assets. Residential property becomes more affordable for buyers. Developer borrowing costs come down. The yield spread on REITs and INVITs over bonds compresses, making them look more attractive on a relative basis.

For UHNIs and family offices in India who haven’t been particularly active in listed real estate vehicles, this is worth reviewing.

The key distinction: institutionally managed, income-generating real estate through listed REITs is a different conversation from buying another residential flat in a project that’s three years from completion. One has liquidity, professional management, and a regular income. The other has lock-up, execution risk, and a developer relationship.

On private equity: deal activity picks up in this kind of environment. Capital is cheaper, companies are raising to grow, and GPs are deploying. But cheaper capital also means sellers are asking for higher prices. Entry valuations in PE deals have been climbing. If you’re allocating to Category II AIFs or doing direct co-investments, manager selection matters more than it did two or three years ago. Staggering commitments across vintages still makes more sense than trying to time a single entry point.

Infrastructure assets tied to inflation or regulated tariffs — INVITs, infrastructure AIFs — also deserve a look as a hedge against the scenario where the current inflation calm doesn’t last. These are long-dated, cash-flow-predictable instruments that behave differently from equity in a portfolio.

One more thing on credit: this is not the phase to chase yield by moving down the quality curve. As spreads compress, the extra return for taking credit risk gets thinner. If you’re holding high-yield NCDs, mezzanine real estate debt, or promoter financing structures that you took on when spreads were wide, go back and look at those positions again. The yield looks the same. The spread buffer doesn’t.

Global Exposure and Currency Risk

Most family offices in India, multifamily offices, and UHNIs we speak with are, understandably, India-heavy. The returns have been good. The growth story is credible. There’s comfort in familiarity. All of that makes sense.

But a portfolio that is almost entirely in INR has an embedded currency risk that tends to be invisible in good years and very visible in bad ones. When the rupee depreciates sharply — and it does, periodically — the real value of that wealth, measured against what it can actually buy globally, takes a hit that no domestic return has offset.

For families with genuine foreign currency needs — children studying abroad, medical expenses overseas, property outside India, any form of international philanthropy or giving — offshore allocation through the LRS is not a luxury. It’s sensible risk management.

Beyond hedging, there’s also the pure opportunity argument. Indian equities and Indian credit are not the only places where good risk-adjusted returns exist. Global equities,

International fixed income and alternatives based outside India give a family exposure to economic cycles and sectors that simply don’t exist in India’s market at the same scale.

Among the wealth management firms in India that work with globally minded families, the standard benchmark is somewhere between 20 and 40 percent outside the home market. That range is wide deliberately, because the right number depends on actual currency needs, estate planning structure, where heirs will live, and how offshore holding entities are set up. The number is rarely zero.

How Family Offices in India Should Rebalance Over Time Without Timing Mistakes

There’s no need to act on all of this in one go. Portfolios built up over years don’t need to be restructured in a quarter. The right approach is a phased rebalancing over six to eighteen months: systematic switches out of short-tenor cash instruments, selective additions to quality fixed income and equities during dips, and gradual reduction of positions that have run well and now look stretched.

What matters equally — and gets less attention — is governance. Family office structures and holding vehicles should have documented investment policies, clear mandates, and defined processes for decision-making. Credit positions and real estate holdings should be reviewed for documentation quality and what happens in a worst-case.

In a low-rate environment with ample liquidity, the thing that creates problems isn’t usually the macro. It’s the deal that was done quickly, the position that was never formally underwritten, the holding that no one has looked at in two years.

Whether you run a single-family office, work through a multifamily office, or rely on one of the larger wealth management firms in India, independent oversight, concentration limits, and consolidated reporting across onshore and offshore structures matter. Not as compliance formalities. As actual risk management.

Where This Leaves You

The RBI’s cutting cycle is largely done. The window it opened for repositioning is still open, but it won’t stay open indefinitely. Rates could move again. Valuations in parts of the market are already full. Credit spreads have compressed. The macro is supportive, but that’s a backdrop, not a strategy.

For UHNIs, family offices in India, and multifamily offices with the right structure and the right advisors, this environment still has real opportunity: in quality fixed income before yields fall further, in domestic cyclicals at the right prices, in real assets through proper vehicles, and in building a global footprint that doesn’t leave the family’s wealth entirely exposed to one currency.

This is the work we do at Alpha Capital with family offices, multifamily offices, and UHNIs across India. If you’d like to talk through how this applies to your specific situation, reach out. No generic advice, no boilerplate allocations. Just a clear-headed look at your actual portfolio.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the RBI’s 125 bps rate cut mean for UHNI portfolio rebalancing in India?
It shifts where the best risk-adjusted returns sit. Cash and short-term deposits start carrying reinvestment risk. Quality fixed income with some duration becomes more attractive. Equities and real assets get support from cheaper borrowing, but not every segment is equally well-priced.

How should family offices in India respond to RBI rate cuts in their fixed-income book?
For family offices sitting on significant liquidity in short-term instruments, shifting part of it into G-Secs, SDLs, or quality AAA bonds makes sense while yields are still at reasonable levels. The key is doing it conservatively and not taking on credit risk to chase yield.

Which Indian equity sectors benefit most from RBI rate cuts?
Banks, NBFCs, real estate developers, auto companies, building materials, and capital goods companies are the most direct beneficiaries. They gain from lower funding costs and stronger consumer demand.

How much global exposure should a family office or multifamily office in India carry?
Most comparable globally diversified family offices and multifamily offices hold 20 to 40 percent outside their home market. Among wealth management firms in India, the right number for each family depends on foreign currency needs, where heirs are based, and how offshore holdings are structured.

Are REITs and INVITs worth adding to a UHNI or family office portfolio right now?

In a falling rate environment, listed REITs and infrastructure INVITs become more attractive relative to bonds. For family offices in India light on real assets, adding income-yielding, institutionally managed vehicles makes more sense than direct property purchases.

How quickly should a family office in India rebalance after a rate-cutting cycle?
Over six to eighteen months is usually more sensible than all at once. Phased switches, using market dips as entry points, and taking profits in stretched positions gradually, is how you avoid timing mistakes. Alpha Capital recommends a structured rebalancing mandate rather than ad hoc decisions.

Blending Bengali and South Indian cultural elements, Shiuli revolves around an emotional triangular love story filled with romance, relationships, heartbreak, and deep human emotions. The film stars Twinkle Baruah, Rasil, Sudipta Chakraborty, and Arshi Sen in pivotal roles.

The project is being produced by Susmita Adhikary and Kallol Chowdhury, while the film is being presented by Dr. Nazim Munshi, founder of Dar Luxurious Living.

The teaser of Shiuli has already touched the hearts of audiences and crossed more than 2 million views within just 24 hours of release. One of the songs from the film has also become highly popular, crossing over 5 million views and receiving tremendous love on social media platforms.

All songs and promotional content of the movie are being released under the prestigious Saregama Bengali YouTube Channel⁠. The recently released song from Shiuli has already connected emotionally with listeners and continues to gain appreciation online. Watch the official song here — Shiuli Official Song⁠.

Interestingly, the film features a total of five songs, with one new track scheduled to release every Thursday. Each song includes some of West Bengal’s leading singers, making the soundtrack one of the strongest attractions of the film.

Director Babai Sen expressed his confidence and gratitude, saying that the overwhelming love received by the teaser and first song has inspired the entire team. He hopes that the upcoming songs will also emotionally connect with audiences and receive the same kind of appreciation and support.
The film is scheduled for a grand theatrical release this June across major cinema halls and will also release in dubbed Hindi and Malayalam versions, aiming to reach a wider audience across India.

There is a specific kind of silence that only failed entrepreneurs know. It is not the silence of an empty room; it is the silence of an empty future. No ringing phones. No team chatter. No invoices to chase. Just the hollow echo of a dream that stopped breathing.

Sudipta and Priyanka Prajapati know that silence better than most.

Twelve months ago, they stood alone in a vacant office, the last man standing after their first venture completely collapsed. Not stumbled. Not struggled. Collapsed. A full year of blood, savings, and identity simply GONE.

They walked out carrying nothing but what the industry coldly calls “backlogs” and the kind of exhaustion that no sleep can fix. They weren’t just financially broke. They were broken at the core.

Most people in that position update their LinkedIn profiles and quietly disappear into the comfort of a salary.

Both Sudipta and Priyanka went home and opened a spreadsheet.

For an entire year, while the world assumed they had moved on, they were doing something far more dangerous — they were learning. Every night, after taking on whatever freelance work they could find just to cover rent, they would sit down and perform an autopsy on their failed business. Line by line. Decision by decision. Mistake by mistake.

What they found was both humbling and clarifying.

The idea behind his first company was never the problem. The execution was. They had scaled too fast, too soon, without building a solid sales pipeline beneath them. They had built a roof before the foundation.

Sudipta and Priyanka weren’t bad entrepreneurs. They were impatient ones, and now, they knew the difference.

Exactly one year after the collapse, something shifted inside Sudipta. The anger he had carried quietly transformed into something far more powerful and focused. Razor-sharp, unshakeable, relentless focus.

Both started working for a single company and made it big. With zero investors, zero safety net, and nothing but the lessons carved from failure, Sudipta and Priyanka joined Enmmey in leadership roles.

And they did it completely together.

No plush office. No founding team. No seed funding pitch decks. Just Sudipta, Priyanka, a laptop, and a decision to never look backwards again.

They became each other’s salesperson, accountant, strategist, and their own cheerleader. On the days when the grind felt impossible, they reminded themselves of the alternative and kept moving.

Where others saw a solo operator barely keeping the lights on, Sudipta and Priyanka saw something else entirely: the blueprint of an empire being drawn in real time.

When the Comeback Became Real

Here is where the story stops being inspirational and starts being remarkable.

In under twelve months of relaunch, Enmmey crossed 1 crore revenue in 3 months in annual revenue. The team that started as a two-person show now includes 3 dedicated full-time employees and 6 ambitious interns who are, by all accounts, building something real.

No shortcuts. No investors. No inheritance. Just grit, strategy, and the quiet stubbornness of two friends who refused to let a single failure write the final chapter of their career.

It would be easy to reduce this to a feel-good story about perseverance. But that would be missing the point.

Sudipta and Priyanka’s journey is a masterclass in strategic resilience — the rare ability to not just survive failure, but to extract intelligence from it and deploy it with precision the second time around.

They didn’t just try harder.
They tried smarter.
They fixed the foundation before building the walls.

More Than Just a Revenue Milestone

Enmmey today is not just a company crossing milestones. It is living proof that the entrepreneurs who fail, learn, and return are exponentially more dangerous than those who never failed at all.

When asked about the journey, Sudipta and Priyanka don’t reach for dramatic metaphors or rehearsed motivational lines. They simply look at their growing team and say:

“We lost my first company. But we found the version of ourselves that was capable of building this one.”

In a business landscape obsessed with overnight success stories and Silicon Valley glamour, Sudipta and Priyanka’s story is a quiet but thunderous reminder that the most powerful thing an entrepreneur can do after falling is not to rise quickly — but to rise correctly.

From zero to ₹1 Crore.
From a closed office to a growing team.
From bankruptcy of spirit to an abundance of purpose.

The comeback of the year doesn’t always come with fanfare.
Sometimes, it starts with just two dedicated people, a laptop, and a spreadsheet at midnight

India's ambition to become a $10 trillion economy by 2030-35 doesn't hinge on solving Bengaluru's traffic. It hinges on building ten more Bengalurus.

The Numbers Tell a Remarkable Story

India's technology ecosystem has reached unprecedented scale. With 2,975 GCC Units employing over 1.9 million professionals and generating $65 billion in annual revenue, India hosts 50% of all global capability centers worldwide. The ecosystem's total economic impact approaches $241 billion, contributing nearly 2% to national GDP.

Figure 1: India's GCC Units Landscape

Bengaluru leads with 875 GCC Units, $79 billion in startup funding since 2010, and 53 unicorns (44% of India's total). Delhi-NCR follows with 465 GCC Units and the fastest talent growth at 0.9% YoY. Hyderabad has emerged as the dark horse with 355 GCC Units and proactive policies. Mumbai, Pune, and Chennai collectively contribute 1,031 GCC Units. Together, these six metros host 92% of India's GCC Units—a concentration that represents both strength and vulnerability.

Why Bengaluru Leads—And Why That's Not Enough

Despite criticism, Bengaluru isn't slowing down. In 2025, one-third of all new GCC Units still chose Bengaluru. The reason: ecosystem depth cannot be replicated overnight—2,443 funded startups, proximity to IISc and IIMs, the deepest talent pools in AI and cloud computing, and two decades of institutional knowledge.

Karnataka's ₹19,000 crore infrastructure commitment signals recognition that this engine must keep running. But here's the strategic insight: Bengaluru's ceiling is India's ceiling. A single-city narrative caps our potential at the carrying capacity of one urban system.

The Distributed Excellence Imperative

India's path to $10 trillion runs through distributed innovation. Tier-2 cities are gaining momentum—Coimbatore (60+ GCC Units), Kochi, Ahmedabad, and Mysuru are strategic frontiers. The economics are compelling: 25-30% lower costs, 10-15% lower attrition, and fresher talent pools. Over 215 GCC Units now operate in emerging locations.

This isn't about abandoning metros; it's about de-risking India's value proposition. The 2025 Union Budget's national GCC framework recognizes this, extending focus beyond metro hubs.

From Criticism to Collaboration

The public spats between industry leaders and government officials serve no one. What's needed is a collaborative framework. State governments must compete on infrastructure, not just incentives—Karnataka's GCC policy is being mirrored by Telangana and Tamil Nadu. Industry must invest in Tier-2 expansion. Public-private partnerships must scale. And skilling initiatives must reach Tier-2 and Tier-3 cities—India produces 1.5 million engineers annually.

The $10 Trillion Question

By 2030, India's GCC sector is projected to reach $150 billion+ in revenue, employ 4 million+ professionals, and host 2,500+ capability centers. This growth will either concentrate in existing hotspots—straining infrastructure—or distribute across vibrant tech ecosystems.

Bengaluru's critics are right that the city needs better infrastructure. But they miss the larger point: India needs more cities with Bengaluru's vibrancy—cities so successful that their success strains their systems. Hyderabad, Chennai, Pune, and Delhi-NCR are approaching that threshold. Coimbatore, Kochi, and a dozen others are building the foundations.

The path from criticism to collaboration runs through a simple recognition: we're not competing against each other. We're racing against time and global competition to build the distributed excellence that transforms India from a $3.5 trillion economy to a $10 trillion powerhouse.

Figure 5: The Path to $10 Trillion

Bengaluru has shown what's possible. Now, India must multiply that possibility—not replace it.

A lot of names were removed from voter lists in West Bengal during this revision a total of 91 Lakh names.Out of these 34 lakh people said they were voters and their names were removed by mistake, which's really sad.Shashi Tharoor said many of these people did not get time to fix their appeals before voting happened so they missed their chance.

A few hundred cases were looked at before the elections, which is not a lot.Lakhs of appeals were still pending which means they were not resolved.

He thinks this might have changed the election result, which's possible.Many people who thought they could vote were not able to, which is not fair.

Shashi Tharoor also pointed out that the BJP won West Bengal by 30 lakh votes, which's a big margin.He asked if the process was fair if many appeals were not resolved during the election, which's a good question.

In the 2026 West Bengal Assembly elections the BJP won 207 seats, which's a lot.This meant the end of the Trinamool Congress government led by Mamata Banerjee, which had been in power for 15 years so it was a change.The TMC only won 80 seats, which's not a lot.

Shashi Tharoor also said that in Kerala the Congress might have benefited from the voter list revision, which's interesting.He said some voters had their names registered times in different booths, which is not right.

These were mostly supporters of the CPM so it affected them.He said these extra names were removed during the revision, which's good.This might have helped the Congress-led alliance in Kerala, which's possible.The Congress-led United Democratic Front won 102 seats in the Kerala Assembly elections, which's a win.They defeated the Left Democratic Front, which had been in power for 10 years so it was a win.

The BJP leader Suvendu Adhikari is now the Chief Minister of West Bengal which's a new role for him.The BJP won a victory in the elections that is a fact.The Congress MP Shashi Tharoor is still worried, about the voter lists and the election result, which is understandable.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi was speaking in Vadodara. He said that technology has made it easy for people to work from home. He thinks that government offices and private offices should let people work from home when they can.

Now that people are talking about work from home again many people want to make their home office better. Experts say that if you have a workspace at home it can help you work better feel less stressed and not get too tired.

Here are 5 simple ways to make your work from home space better:

1. Make a special place to work

Do not work from your bed or dining table every day. Get a desk and a comfortable chair to help you focus and sit up straight. You can also add some dividers or a rug to make your workspace feel like an office.

2. Be able to sit and stand

Sitting for a time can hurt your body and make you feel tired. Try using a desk that can go up and down or take breaks to stand up during the day. This can help your blood move better and give you energy.

3. Use lights that are easy on the eyes

Lights that are too bright can hurt your eyes. Make you feel stressed. Table lamps and soft lights can make your workspace feel calm and make it easier to work for a time.

4. Bring some nature into your workspace

Plants, light and wooden furniture can make your workspace feel fresh and relaxing. Experts say that being around things can help you feel less stressed and focus better.

5. Keep work and home life separate

One of the problems with working from home is that it can be hard to know when you are working and when you are not. Make a place for work and a special place to relax. This can help you feel better and not get too stressed.

As people start talking about work from home making your home workspace better now can help you work from home in a healthier way be more productive and feel less stressed. Work from home can be good for you if you have a workspace, at home

Social Media Users Turned The Giant Ruby Into Meme Material

Soon after the ruby photos surfaced online, social media users started reacting in funny and creative ways. One user joked that the ruby looked “like a strawberry on steroids”. Another person called it a “spoiled strawberry”, while someone else compared it to a “dragon fruit”. A few comments even tagged businesswoman Nita Ambani and joked that the gemstone could become her next luxury fashion piece. Some users were simply amazed. Comments like “Wow”, “Earth has hidden many things inside herself” and “This looks super cool” quickly spread across platforms. Many viewers could not believe such a massive ruby was real.

Internet Users Also Raised Questions About Myanmar’s Political Situation

While many people enjoyed the discovery, others linked the ruby news with Myanmar’s ongoing political and economic crisis. One user wrote that “rebel wars will always continue there” because gemstone regions remain highly valuable. Another comment said the government was “showcasing gems while the economy crashes.” Some users discussed Myanmar’s military coup and sanctions, saying the gemstone discovery became more than just mining news. A finance-focused account described the ruby as a “geopolitical talking point” instead of an investment opportunity. These reactions showed how global audiences now connect even gemstone discoveries with larger political events happening inside countries.

Curious Viewers Asked About The Ruby’s Future And Market Value

Many online users became curious about what would happen to the ruby next. Some asked whether experts would cut the stone into smaller gems or preserve it as one giant piece. Others wondered about its possible market value. One user called the discovery “insane” and questioned how much collectors might pay for such a rare stone. Experts say large rubies are extremely difficult to find because most stones contain cracks or uneven colouring. That is why this Myanmar ruby has become such a major talking point. The country’s Ministry of Information also highlighted its rarity and high quality in its official statement.

Public Reactions Mixed Wonder, Humour And Global Attention

The internet response became a mix of excitement, jokes, criticism, and admiration. Some users praised the natural beauty of the ruby and called it a “miracle of Earth”. One Japanese user wrote that even for Mogok, this kind of discovery was historic. Others continued making humorous remarks and memes around the stone’s appearance. A few users discussed Myanmar’s economy and political condition more than the ruby itself. This mix of reactions showed how modern social media turns every global event into a worldwide discussion within hours. From gemstone lovers to meme creators, everyone seemed to have something to say about Myanmar’s massive ruby discovery.

When Vaibhav Vithuray Naik's father was diagnosed with Stage 4 cancer in 2020, at the height of the pandemic, the family found itself navigating one of life's most harrowing journeys with very little guidance. Vithuray Rama Naik a man his son describes as "warmth, in human form," a lover of theatre and comedy suddenly became a cancer patient. And Vaibhav became his caregiver.

What followed was five years of chemotherapy, setbacks, hospital visits across multiple facilities, and the relentless administrative chaos that cancer families know all too well: heavy bags stuffed with files and reports, medical terminology that few outside medicine could easily decipher, and the hollow feeling of walking out of a hospital with a bag of prescriptions and no one to call at two in the morning. "It was not just tiring," Vaibhav recalls. "It was demoralising." Out of that desperation, the family cobbled together a rudimentary app on a laptop locally stored, nothing sophisticated just to track medicines, log reports, and feel some semblance of control. It was never meant to be a product. It was a lifeline.

Vithuray Rama Naik passed away on 20th November 2025. Before he did, he left his son with words that would become the founding philosophy of a platform: "Help as many people as possible… even the smallest help matters in this situation."

That platform is EncoEase.

What EncoEase Does and What It Doesn't

EncoEase is a digital support companion designed specifically for cancer patients and their caregivers. The name says it plainly: Enco from oncology, Ease because, as Vaibhav puts it, "that is what patients and families deserve most, and receive least."

The platform does not diagnose. It does not prescribe. It does not attempt to replace the oncologist. What it does is fill the gap that opens the moment a patient walks out of the hospital a gap that, for millions of families, feels like falling off a cliff. At its core, EncoEase is built around an AI-powered care assistant available around the clock. Patients can log symptoms of daily pain, fatigue, nausea, emotional state and the system analyses those entries over time to surface patterns rather than isolated data points. Is a symptom recurring? Is fatigue worsening since the last treatment cycle? These insights, the platform argues, are genuinely useful for both patients and their treating teams. A conversational chat feature allows patients to ask questions about their treatment at any hour, in plain language, and receive responses designed to be calm and compassionate rather than clinical. Prescription information is explained in terms families can actually understand. Hospital and financial aid finders help users navigate a healthcare ecosystem that many simply do not know how to access. Crucially, Vaibhav has made the platform completely free. "Not freemium. Not free for 30 days. Free," he states. The reason is straightforward: his father's words left him no other option.

Building Trust in Healthcare Tech

For any AI-driven health platform, the question of safety and accuracy is non-negotiable. Vaibhav is candid about where EncoEase currently stands. The platform is designed with clear AI boundaries it recognises when a question requires professional medical attention and redirects users accordingly. Formal validation with oncology professionals is actively in progress, and the product roadmap includes deeper integration with hospital systems and partnerships with cancer foundations and NGOs. User feedback, for now, is gathered through email and direct messaging, an admittedly informal process, but one rooted in something many startups lack: genuine proximity to the problem. The early version of EncoEase was used by a real cancer patient, in a real crisis, for five real years.

What Comes Next

The feature that most excites Vaibhav is still being built: an in-platform fundraising ecosystem that allows patients, caregivers, and supporters to contribute to a verified cancer patient fund. In India, where treatment costs can push families into severe debt, and where patients sometimes discontinue chemotherapy not because they lack the will to fight but because they cannot afford to continue, the stakes are viscerally high. EncoEase is also working on expanding language support to include regional Indian languages a recognition that the patients who most need this kind of support are often the least served by English-only digital tools. For Vaibhav Vithuray Naik, a freelancer and educator from Margao who teaches AI and film science to college students, this platform is not a pivot or a pitch. It is a promise kept.

"When a patient walks out of the hospital," he says, "they shouldn't feel like they've been left behind.

EncoEase is currently available as a free platform for cancer patients and caregivers.

His trainer, Rakkesh R Uddiyar, who has also worked with Salman Khan said Ram Charan is like the Salman Khan.

 Rakkesh talked about how strong and tough Ram Charan's both in body and mind.

Ram Charan was still filming Peddi even when he got hurt.Ram Charan works out a lot like Salman Khan.

They both have bodies do a lot of cardio and get back in shape quickly when they need to.

Rakkesh also likes that Ram Charan lives an spiritual life.

When Ram Charan was filming Peddi he was following a 41-day routine.

This meant walking and only eating vegetarian food.

With all these challenges Ram Charan kept working out hard for his sports movie.He has a body that's already lean and strong which reminded Rakkesh of Salman Khan.

The movie Peddi, directed by Buchi Babu Sana stars Ram Charan with Janhvi Kapoor and Shiva Rajkumar.

It is supposed to come out in June. People are really excited, about it.

Dr Amit Mittal, senior consultant in cardiology at Indraprastha Apollo Hospital, Delhi, warned that many people consume far more salt than their body actually needs — often without realising it.

Why too much salt is dangerous

Salt contains sodium, and excess sodium makes the body retain more water. This extra fluid raises blood pressure and forces the heart to work harder every day.

Over time, this can:

• Damage blood vessels

• Stiffen arteries

• Increase blood pressure

• Weaken the heart muscle

• Raise the risk of heart disease and stroke

The biggest problem? The damage happens slowly and silently over the years.

Why Indians consume more salt

According to the doctor, salt intake in India comes from multiple sources throughout the day, including:

• Home-cooked food

• Pickles and chutneys

• Packaged snacks

• Instant noodles and processed foods

• Extra table salt added before meals

Signs you may be eating too much salt

High sodium intake may show some warning signs like:

• Frequent bloating

• Swollen fingers or feet

• Excessive thirst

• Headaches

• Craving salty foods often

Easy ways to reduce salt intake

The good news is that cutting down on salt does not mean eating tasteless food.

Here are some expert tips:

• Taste food before adding extra salt

• Use lemon, garlic, herbs, and spices for flavour

• Avoid highly processed snacks

• Check sodium levels on packaged foods

• Switch to low-sodium alternatives if advised by a doctor

Doctors say taste preferences can change over time, meaning your body can slowly adapt to eating less salt naturally.

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], May 8: Cricket’s journey over the past few decades has been defined by one recurring theme: SPEED. What was once a leisurely five-day affair gradually transformed into a faster, sharper, and more entertainment-driven spectacle. From 60-over One Day Internationals to 50-overs, then to the explosive rise of T20 cricket and the experimental arrival of T10 and The Hundred, the sport has consistently evolved to match changing audience behaviour.

Now, with fans increasingly gravitating toward shorter attention-span entertainment and instant digital engagement, an intriguing question is beginning to emerge within cricketing circles: could the rise of rapid cricket formats eventually pave the way for T60 — a one-hour, 60-ball-per-side version of the game?

While still hypothetical, the idea of T60 is no longer as far-fetched as it once sounded. The foundations for such a format are already visible in cricket’s modern ecosystem, where innovation, entertainment and commercial viability are becoming equally important pillars alongside sporting excellence.

The success of franchise-based T20 leagues across the globe demonstrated that audiences were willing to embrace shorter, more aggressive cricket. Stadiums became louder, broadcasts became flashier and matches became prime-time entertainment properties. The introduction of T10 cricket in Abu Dhabi further accelerated this shift, proving that even ultra-condensed formats could attract global viewership, sponsorships and marquee players. Similarly, England’s The Hundred attempted to simplify cricket for newer audiences through shorter innings and streamlined rules. Together, these formats indicate that cricket administrators are increasingly open to experimentation in pursuit of wider reach and younger demographics.

In many ways, T60 appears like the natural extension of this evolution — a format designed specifically for the era of rapid consumption, mobile entertainment, and digital-first audiences.

If introduced, T60 would compress an entire cricket match into approximately one hour, making it one of the fastest professional team sports formats globally. Every over would carry heightened significance, with players forced into immediate decision-making and relentless attacking gameplay.

Former cricketers and analysts believe such a format could dramatically reshape the tactical structure of cricket. Traditional concepts like innings-building, patient bowling spells, and recovery phases may almost disappear. Batters would need to attack from ball one, while bowlers would operate under immense pressure where even a single poor over could alter the outcome of the match.

Former India captain Dilip Vengsarkar believes cricket’s evolution has always reflected audience preferences and changing times.

“Cricket has already accelerated massively over the years. If a match ever comes down to just 60 balls per side, every delivery would feel decisive,” he said. According to him, traditional pacing in batting would virtually disappear. “There would be no settling in. Players would have to attack immediately, and the margin for error would be minimal,” Vengsarkar adds. 

Bowlers, he feels, would also operate under extreme pressure in such a condensed format. “One expensive over could swing the entire match. In a game that short, momentum would shift in seconds.” 

Even as such possibilities generate curiosity, experts emphasize that experimentation must coexist with tradition. Vengsarkar believes shorter formats can complement rather than replace the longer versions of the game. “Cricket’s strength is its variety,” he says, adding, “Innovation is welcome, but the longer formats must always remain the foundation.”

Supporters of ultra-short cricket argue that T60 could unlock entirely new audiences, especially younger viewers accustomed to consuming entertainment in shorter formats across social media and streaming platforms. A one-hour cricket event could fit seamlessly into weekday prime-time slots, making it easier for working professionals and casual viewers to engage with the sport.

From a commercial standpoint, too, T60 could create fresh opportunities for broadcasters, sponsors, and franchise owners. Faster matches could mean tighter scheduling, more double-headers, and higher viewer retention in a competitive entertainment landscape.

However, critics remain sceptical about how much further cricket can be compressed without losing its strategic depth. Many believe the emotional ebb and flow of cricket, the tension built over sessions, partnerships, and momentum swings is what makes the sport unique compared to other fast-paced games.

Yet history suggests that cricket has rarely resisted reinvention when audiences show an appetite for change. T20 itself was once dismissed as a gimmick before becoming cricket’s biggest commercial success story.

Today, with rapid formats continuing to gain popularity worldwide, the possibility of T60 no longer feels purely speculative. Whether it eventually becomes an official format or remains a conceptual debate, one thing is certain — cricket’s evolution is far from over.

And if the sport continues moving toward speed, spectacle, and entertainment-led experiences, T60 may well represent the next chapter in cricketainment’s ongoing rise.

We live in an age of high definition cameras and social media "filters" that make us feel like we always need to look perfect. It’s easy to feel overwhelmed by the endless beauty trends and expensive products that promise the world but rarely deliver. However, in Pune, the conversation around beauty is shifting.

It’s moving away from "fixing" flaws and toward genuine skin health, thanks to the work of Dr. Vrushali Nikam.

Known by many as the "Alchemist of Aesthetics," Dr. Vrushali Nikam has built a reputation for something rare in the beauty industry: A balance of high end science and a very human touch.

When you walk into her clinic, Bodysutra Clinique, it doesn’t feel like a cold, clinical appointment. It feels more like a consultation with a master artisan who sees your skin as a living canvas. She doesn't just look at wrinkles or spots; she looks at the person behind them, aiming to bring out a glow that feels natural rather than "done."

More Than Just a "Beauty Doctor"

What makes Dr. Vrushali Nikam special is her deep background in medical science. She didn't start her career just doing beauty treatments. She spent over 12 years studying and treating serious skin problems like painful acne, scars, and long term skin diseases.

She has high level medical degrees (MBBS and DDVL) and spent years training in big hospitals. This is important because it means she understands what is happening inside your body, not just on the surface. She often says that a doctor who only looks at the outside is like a painter, but a doctor who understands the cells is a healer. Her goal isn't to make you look like someone else; it’s to make you look like the healthiest, happiest version of yourself.

The Proof is in the Results

You don’t have to just take our word for it, the numbers speak for themselves. Dr. Vrushali Nikam’s name is one of the most trusted names in dermatologists in Pimpri Chinchwad, Wakad and Pimple Saudagar.

Here is why people trust her:
⦁ Over 10,00 Happy Patients: She has helped thousands of people get their confidence back.
⦁ A 98% Satisfaction Rate: Almost every single person who finishes a treatment with her walks away feeling great.
⦁ Word of Mouth Fame: 9 out of 10 new patients come to her because a friend or family member told them how amazing she is.
⦁ World Class Safety: She uses over 85 different types of treatments, all of which are "USFDA approved." This is just a fancy way of saying they are tested and proven to be 100% safe by global standards.

Saving Your Hair, Saving Your Smile

Dr. Vrushali Nikam is also a world class expert in hair health (which doctors call Trichology). We all know how scary it is to see hair falling out in the shower. Most places might just try to sell you a hair transplant right away, but Dr. Vrushali Nikam is different.

She believes that "you can't grow a forest on dry, dead soil". This means she looks at your diet, your stress, and your scalp health first. She uses special treatments like PRP (which uses your own blood’s natural healing power) to wake up your hair roots. By fixing the health of your scalp first, she makes sure the hair that grows back is strong and healthy.

The "Bespoke" Way: No Two Faces are the Same

One of the best things about Dr. Vrushali Nikam is that she doesn't believe in one trick for all. In many clinics, they give every patient the same treatment. At Bodysutra, Dr. Vrushali Nikam takes her time. She might spend 45 minutes just talking to you during your first visit. She wants to know about your life, what you eat, and how much sleep you get.

This personalized care has actually changed the way other clinics in the area work. Because her standards are so high, other doctors have had to work harder just to keep up with her!

Honesty You Can Trust

In a world where people are always trying to sell you something, Dr. Vrushali Nikam is famous for her honesty. If you ask for a treatment that you don’t actually need, she will tell you "No."

She practices "Minimalist" beauty. This means she wants to do the smallest amount of work to get the biggest, most natural result. She believes that the most beautiful thing you can wear is confidence. One of her long time patients said it best: "Dr. Vrushali doesn’t try to change your face; she just fixes the things that make you want to hide."

The Bottom Line

Dr. Vrushali Nikam has shown that taking care of your skin and hair isn't just about vanity it’s about feeling good about yourself. Whether she is clearing up a skin rash or helping someone look younger, she does it with passion and care.

If you are looking for the best skin care in Pune, Dr. Vrushali Nikam is the gold standard.

By 2035, experts project a massive 180 GW cooling gap. To put that in perspective, that gap alone is nearly half of India’s current total installed power capacity. The question isn't just whether we can generate enough power, but whether our grid can handle the weight of a billion people flipping the switch at once.

Several factors are converging to create this unprecedented pressure on the electrical grid:-

Rapid Urbanization:- As cities expand, the Urban Heat Island effect makes metropolitan areas significantly hotter than the countryside, driving constant AC usage.

Rising Incomes:- A growing middle class is prioritizing thermal comfort, leading to a projected eight fold increase in AC units over the next two decades.

Extreme Weather Patterns:- With summer heatwaves becoming longer and more intense, the peak load on the grid is reaching dangerous heights.

The 180 GW cooling gap represents the deficit between the projected peak demand driven by cooling and our current capacity to generate and distribute that power reliably. When millions of compressors kick in simultaneously during a 45°C afternoon, the surge can cause frequency drops, transformer failures, and widespread blackouts.

"The cooling challenge is not just an energy issue; it's a structural hurdle for India's economic resilience."

— Parveen Bhardwaj, Advisor Think Tank, Government of India

How India is Preparing

To prevent a total grid meltdown, the strategy must be three fold.

1. Energy Efficiency First:- Promoting Super Efficient ACs is critical. An AC that consumes 30% less power effectively reduces the burden on the grid without requiring a single new power plant.

2. District Cooling Systems:- Instead of every apartment having five separate compressors, large scale district cooling can provide cooling to entire neighborhoods more efficiently.

3. Smart Grid Integration:

Implementing AI driven    demand response systems can help shave the peak load by slightly adjusting AC temperatures across the city during high stress periods.

The Bottom Line

The image of a glowing, overloaded power pylon isn't just a metaphor it's a warning. Survival of the grid will depend on our ability to balance the desperate need for cooling with a radical overhaul of how we produce and consume energy.

India’s journey toward 2035 will be a test of engineering and policy, can we keep the nation cool without burning out the very system that powers it?

In a quiet corner of Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh, a young Indian perfume brand is doing what almost no domestic fragrance house has managed before — building a luxury Extrait de Parfum line that competes with imported niche perfume on quality, while undercutting it on price by an order of magnitude.

The brand is VR7 Fragrance, and over the past year it has quietly become one of the most talked-about names in India's fragrance community.

Founded by Vivek Rajput, VR7 Fragrance is a homegrown Indian Extrait de Parfum house — one of very few in the country to formulate exclusively at concentrations of 33% and above. That single decision separates the brand from almost everything else on the Indian market. While most domestic perfume brands work with Eau de Toilette (8–12% concentration) or Eau de Parfum (15–20%), VR7 goes straight to the top — Extrait de Parfum, the richest and longest-lasting form of fine fragrance in the world.

The result: perfumes that last 8 to 12 hours on skin, with real sillage, real projection, and a depth that reveals itself gradually across the day.

Where the Brand Began

The story starts with a question every Indian fragrance enthusiast eventually asks: why does genuine longevity feel like a privilege?

Vivek Rajput, the founder, wasn't a trained perfumer when he began. He was a fragrance lover who refused to accept the answer the market kept giving him. That refusal turned into months of research, hundreds of test batches, and a defining choice — to build a brand around Extrait de Parfum from day one, even though it meant higher production costs, longer development timelines, and a harder road to market.

The easier path would have been to bottle something light, price it low, and move volume. VR7 chose a different path: use globally sourced aroma compounds, premium musks, real oud accords, and natural extracts. Make something that actually works. Then price it so that a college student and a seasoned collector can both afford to build a wardrobe of it.

That is what VR7 Fragrance is — an Indian niche house that takes the person wearing it seriously.

Five Collections, One Standard

VR7 Fragrance organises its world into five distinct collections, each built around a different mood and moment.

The Fresh Collection brings aquatic, citrus, and breezy compositions designed specifically for Indian heat and Indian skin. The Gourmand Collection leans into warmth — vanilla, caramel, amber — the kind of scents that make people turn around when you walk past. The Intense Collection is built for evenings: deep, smoky, resinous fragrances that announce themselves without apology. The Spicy Collection draws from India's centuries-long love affair with attar, oud, and oriental warmth. And then there are the Discovery Sets — seven 3ml Extrait de Parfum sprays in a single box, the most popular way to begin with the brand.

Across every collection, the concentration never drops. Every bottle is Extrait. Every formula is original. Every scent is designed to last.

Signature names in the range include Sweet Desire, Dubai Nights, #-Tag, Morning Star, Royale, Velvet Flame, Club-X, Ultra Fresh, Midnight Smoke, and Candy Elixir — each one a complete olfactory statement, not a copy of something imported.

What Customers Actually Say

The reviews tell the story better than any brand copy. Customers across India describe VR7 perfumes as "compliment magnets," "addictive," and "unlike anything else I've owned at this price." Many note that a single spray survives the full arc of an Indian day — the morning commute, hours in an air-conditioned office, an evening out — and still has presence when it matters.

This is what Extrait-grade concentration actually means in practice. Not a number on a label. A lived experience.

Priced for Everyone, Built for No One Less

Every bottle of VR7 Fragrance is priced between ₹299 and ₹799. That is a deliberate choice, not a concession. The brand believes that long-lasting, premium fragrance should not require a luxury income. Luxury is the quality, not the price tag.

The full range — including 3ml samples for those who want to try before committing — is available directly at vr7fragrance.in and on Amazon India, with pan-India shipping and easy returns.

VR7 Fragrance is still a young brand, but the mission is clear: to earn its place not as a budget alternative to imported perfume, but as a legitimate Indian niche house in its own right. Scent by scent, bottle by bottle, it is making the case that where perfume ends, Extrait begins — and that case has never smelled better.

VR7 Fragrance™ — Made in India · Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh

is one such name.

From struggling through setbacks, criticism, pressure, failures, and losses — to building multiple ventures across engineering, infrastructure, media, manufacturing, wellness, and social impact — Rohit Sethi’s journey is not just a business story.

It is a story of survival, reinvention, obsession, and unstoppable ambition.

People often ask:
“Who exactly is Rohit Sethi?”

Some call him a businessman.
Some call him an author.
Some see a fitness icon.
Others know him for charity, donations, and helping people battling addiction and depression.

But the truth is —
he cannot be defined in one word.

Because there is hardly any field left untouched.

From engineering discussions inside factories…
to motivational talks…
from boardrooms to gym floors…
from legal strategy conversations to social service initiatives…
from media ventures to industrial manufacturing…

Rohit Sethi became a living example of what happens when one man refuses to stay limited.

THE JOURNEY FROM MINUS

Most success stories begin from zero.

His began from minus.

Minus confidence.
Minus support.
Minus resources.
Minus stability.

But while others complained about life, Rohit Sethi built himself piece by piece.

Long working hours became normal.
Sleep became optional.
Pressure became fuel.

While the world slept, he worked.

And slowly, the same man people doubted started building businesses that entered industries dominated by giants.

Infrastructure.
Capital goods.
Engineering.
Media.
Construction.
Wellness.
Solar. 
Wind.
AI.
Data centre.
Branding.
Philanthropy.

One by one, the impossible started becoming reality.

THE “ONE MAN ARMY”

The phrase “One Man Army” is often casually used.

But for Rohit Sethi, people around him genuinely began using it because they saw one man handling roles that usually require entire teams.

He speaks like a businessman.
Thinks like an engineer.
Writes like an author.
Understands law like a legal advisor.
Studies health and fitness like a coach.
Talks humanity like a social worker.

And somehow…
he still finds time to help people.

That is the part that shocks many.

Because despite the pressure, businesses, responsibilities, and controversies that come with growth —
he never stopped giving back.

FITNESS, DISCIPLINE & THE MINDSET

For Rohit Sethi, fitness was never about vanity.

It became a symbol of discipline.

While many build businesses and lose themselves in the process, he transformed himself mentally and physically together.

Early mornings.
Hard training.
Strict routines.
Mental strength.
Consistency.

His message has always been simple:
“A strong body means nothing without a strong mind.”

People see the physique.

But they do not see the sacrifices behind it.

DONATIONS, CHARITY & HUMANITY

Behind the luxury, businesses, and success lies another side rarely spoken about enough.

Helping people quietly.

Supporting those struggling mentally.
Guiding youth battling addiction.
Feeding people.
Creating opportunities.
Trying to build systems where people can stand on their own feet instead of depending on charity forever.

For him, real success was never just money.

It was impact.

Because according to Rohit Sethi:
“If your success cannot help someone else survive, it is incomplete.”

MOST HANDSOME BILLIONAIRE? OR SOMETHING BIGGER?

Social media often labels him as:
“The Most Handsome Billionaire.”

But people close to the journey know —
the real attraction was never looks.

It was the aura.

The confidence.
The resilience.
The mystery.
The madness to keep building despite pressure.

A man who could walk into a factory covered in steel dust…
and the same evening address cameras, investors, or public events with equal confidence.

That combination is rare.

THE BIGGEST QUESTION MARK

Even today, one question follows him everywhere:

“How does Rohit Sethi do it all?”

No one truly knows.

How one person manages multiple ventures…
handles pressure from every direction…
continues evolving…
keeps learning…
keeps building…
keeps fighting…

still remains a question mark.

Maybe the answer is obsession.
Maybe discipline.
Maybe pain.
Maybe purpose.

Or maybe…

some people are simply built differently.

THE LEGACY STILL UNDER CONSTRUCTION

Most people wait for life to become perfect before they begin.

Rohit Sethi began while life was falling apart.

And perhaps that is why his story connects with people.

Because it proves one thing:

You do not need perfect conditions to build an empire.

You only need the courage to continue when everything says stop.

From minus…
to a ₹1000 crore vision…

the journey of Rohit Sethi is no longer just a story.

It is becoming a legacy.

Mumbai, India | April 29, 2026: Prajakta Shinde Productions proudly announces the auspicious muhurat and commencement of shooting for its upcoming web series titled “Mera Aaina,” held on April 29, 2026. The project marks an exciting new venture in digital storytelling, promising a compelling narrative and powerful performances.

The web series is led by multi-talented creator Prajakta Shinde, who takes on multiple roles as Writer, Director, Actress, and Producer. Known for her creative vision and dedication, she aims to deliver a unique and emotionally engaging story to audiences.

Joining the project as Creative Director is Dhiraj Adik, whose expertise is expected to enhance both the storytelling and visual presentation of the series. The series’ Casting Director is Shahzad Alam Khan, who plays a key role in selecting and shaping the ensemble cast.

The technical team includes:

Director of Photography (DOP) – K. Veejay
Makeup Team – Nirbhay Singh (Team)
Hair Stylist – Indu Didi

The series features a talented ensemble cast, including:

Prajakta Shinde
Aashi Sharma
Vivek Chaudhari
Smita Dongre
Farhaan Khan
Harbhajan Bhatti
Shubhangi

“Mera Aaina” is set to explore deep emotions, relationships, and self-reflection, offering viewers a meaningful and relatable cinematic experience. Speaking on the occasion, Prajakta Shinde expressed her excitement about the project and shared her vision of creating impactful content that resonates with today’s audience.

The production has officially begun, and further details regarding the release platform and premiere date will be announced soon.

Based on the book, “The Game Behind Saffron Terror” by Col. Kanwar Khatana, the film is a gripping political thriller that explores the deeper conspiracy narratives surrounding the events leading up to the 2008 Mumbai attacks. Rather than focusing solely on isolated incidents like the Malegaon blasts, the film presents a layered story of national security, power play, and alleged institutional manipulation.

A key highlight of the film is its bold examination of the “saffron terror” narrative, raising critical questions about how certain narratives may have been constructed and amplified within public discourse. By delving into alleged institutional and political influences, the film challenges viewers to reflect on the fine line between truth and perception, making it both gripping and deeply thought-provoking.

Headlined by Vineet Kumar Singh as a military intelligence officer, and featuring performances by Manoj Joshi as the President of Pakistan saying “India must bleed,” and Raj Arjun as Col Imam, the film has been appreciated for its authenticity and technical detailing, particularly within army circles. The makers ensured realism by engaging military consultants to maintain protocol accuracy.

In comparison, Dhurandhar approaches similar themes through a more character-driven and dramatised lens, often linked to discussions around the Malegaon blast case and the acquittal of Col. Prasad Purohit, adding weight to its narrative. Match Fixing, however, broadens the canvas—focusing less on individual cases and more on the systemic and geopolitical layers that shape national narratives. This wider lens gives it a distinct relevance in today’s context of information warfare and public perception.

Adding an intriguing global dimension, the film weaves a layer of mystery through its sequences set in London and Istanbul. These locations, along with vibrant Kashmir, are not merely visual backdrops but integral to the unfolding conspiracy, enhancing the suspense and reinforcing the idea that the forces at play extend beyond national borders.

Produced by debut filmmaker Pallavi Gurjar under her banner of Artarena Creations, and directed by Kedaar Gaekwad, the film stands out for its scale budget despite constraints, having been shot across multiple locations, including Lucknow, Mumbai, Kashmir, Istanbul, and London. With 138 actors and a tightly woven narrative by writer Anuj S. Mehta, the film combines research with cinematic storytelling, with precise dialogues by Sameer Garud.

Adding to its impact are a high-energy patriotic anthem by Daler Mehndi, which elevates the film’s spirit, and a soulful track that traces the protagonist’s emotional and professional journey.

Why watch it?

For viewers seeking more than surface-level storytelling, Match Fixing offers a thought-provoking exploration of truth, perception, and power. It questions dominant narratives, highlights the sacrifices of intelligence officers, and presents a gripping “behind closed doors” perspective on decisions that impact national security.

A gripping blend of patriotism, mystery, and introspection—Match Fixing is a must-watch for audiences seeking meaningful cinema beyond the obvious. Don’t miss this bold cinematic exposé—now streaming and trending on JioHotstar.

Dhruv’s story is truly inspiring for students across the country. While board examinations demand complete focus and long hours of study, Dhruv continued to train rigorously as a cricketer. As a cisce national-level player representing Maharashtra, his daily routine involved intense practice sessions, fitness training, and match preparations. Managing such a demanding schedule alongside academic responsibilities is no easy task, yet Dhruv handled it with remarkable maturity and planning.

One of the highlights of his academic performance is his perfect score of 100/100 in Mass Media, a subject that requires both creativity and conceptual clarity. This achievement reflects not just his intelligence but also his strong time management skills and ability to stay focused under pressure. His consistency across subjects further proves that he did not compromise on his studies despite his commitments to cricket.

According to those close to him, Dhruv maintained a disciplined routine, carefully dividing his time between studies and sports. Early morning practice sessions, followed by school and study hours, became a part of his daily life. Even during the examination period, he ensured that he stayed connected to cricket, which helped him remain mentally refreshed and motivated.

Dhruv Sharma’s journey serves as a powerful message to young students that success is not limited to a single field. With the right mindset, proper planning and unwavering dedication, it is possible to pursue one’s passion without compromising on academics. His achievement challenges the common belief that students must choose between studies and extracurricular interests.

As Dhruv looks ahead to future opportunities, both in academics and cricket, his story continues to inspire many. He stands as a shining example of how perseverance, hard work, and passion can come together to create extraordinary success.

Over the past decade, Chaudhuri has built a career that spans multiple industries, including e-commerce, fintech, edtech, and enterprise technology. This cross-industry exposure has given him a broad perspective on how AI can be applied in different contexts, as well as an understanding of the common challenges organizations face when attempting to scale it. One of the recurring themes in his work is the idea that the true value of AI lies not in building sophisticated models alone, but in ensuring those models can be deployed, maintained, and continuously improved within complex organizational environments.

A significant part of his contribution lies in the development of composable generative AI platforms. These platforms are designed to enable rapid experimentation while maintaining the stability and scalability required for enterprise use. Instead of building monolithic systems that are difficult to modify or extend, his approach emphasizes modularity, allowing different components to be combined and reused across various applications. This not only accelerates innovation but also reduces redundancy and operational overhead, making it easier for organizations to adopt AI at scale.

In addition to generative AI platforms, Chaudhuri has been actively involved in advancing agentic AI frameworks. These systems represent a shift from traditional automation toward more autonomous forms of intelligence. Unlike rule-based systems that rely on predefined instructions, agentic AI is capable of reasoning, adapting to changing conditions, and executing complex workflows with minimal human intervention. This has significant implications for enterprise productivity, as it enables organizations to automate multi-step processes that were previously too complex or dynamic to handle efficiently.

Another area where he has made notable contributions is in Retrieval-Augmented Generation, commonly referred to as RAG. One of the key limitations of generative AI models is their tendency to produce outputs that may lack accuracy or context, especially when dealing with domain-specific information. RAG systems address this challenge by combining generative models with reliable data retrieval mechanisms, ensuring that outputs are grounded in relevant and up-to-date information. This is particularly important in enterprise settings, where decisions often depend on precise and contextually accurate insights.

Currently, Chaudhuri is associated with Flipkart, where he plays a role in leading AI platform initiatives. His work there focuses on democratizing access to artificial intelligence across the organization. Traditionally, AI capabilities have been concentrated within specialized teams of data scientists and engineers, limiting their broader impact. By building platforms and tools that are accessible to product managers, business leaders, and operations teams, he is helping to break down these silos and make AI a shared organizational capability. This democratization is essential for fostering a culture of innovation, as it allows ideas to emerge from a wider range of perspectives.

A defining characteristic of his leadership is his commitment to a platform-first philosophy. Many organizations struggle with fragmented AI initiatives, where different teams develop their own solutions independently. This often leads to duplication of effort, inconsistent results, and increased maintenance complexity. Chaudhuri addresses this challenge by advocating for unified AI ecosystems that prioritize integration and scalability. His approach emphasizes building systems that can support multiple use cases while maintaining consistency and efficiency across the organization.

This shift from viewing AI as a feature to treating it as infrastructure is a central theme in his work. By embedding AI into the foundational layers of an organization, he enables more seamless integration with existing processes and systems. This not only improves efficiency but also ensures that AI can evolve alongside the organization’s needs. In this sense, his work aligns closely with the broader trend toward AI-native enterprises, where artificial intelligence is not an add-on but a core component of how the business operates.

Beyond his technical contributions, Chaudhuri has also demonstrated a strong commitment to responsible AI practices. As AI systems become more powerful and pervasive, concerns around ethics, transparency, and governance have become increasingly important. He emphasizes the need for frameworks that ensure accountability in AI-driven decisions, as well as mechanisms for monitoring and improving system performance over time. By integrating these considerations into the design and development process, he helps organizations build trust in their AI systems, both internally and externally.

His influence extends beyond the organizations he has worked with, as he is also recognized as a thought leader in the broader AI community. His insights on topics such as scaling AI systems, building trust in generative models, and designing autonomous architectures contribute to ongoing industry conversations. What distinguishes his perspective is its practicality; rather than focusing on abstract theories, he addresses the real challenges that organizations face when implementing AI at scale. This makes his contributions particularly valuable for businesses seeking to move from experimentation to sustained impact.

In 2026, his work was recognized through several notable accolades, including being named in Forbes India’s 40 Under 40 list and receiving the International Business and Education Award for Excellence in Innovation. These honors reflect not only his technical expertise but also his ability to translate that expertise into meaningful business outcomes. They underscore a broader recognition of the importance of leaders who can bridge the gap between innovation and execution in the field of artificial intelligence.

Looking ahead, the demand for leaders who can guide organizations through the transition to AI-native models is expected to grow significantly. As businesses continue to explore new ways of leveraging artificial intelligence, the ability to build scalable, reliable, and responsible systems will become increasingly critical. Chaudhuri’s work positions him at the forefront of this transition, as he continues to focus on enabling organizations to harness the full potential of AI in a sustainable and impactful way.

Ultimately, the journey of Anurag Chaudhuri reflects a broader evolution in how artificial intelligence is perceived and implemented. In an industry often characterized by rapid change and hype-driven narratives, his approach stands out for its emphasis on structure, scalability, and long-term value. By prioritizing systems over isolated solutions and adoption over experimentation, he is helping to redefine what it means to successfully implement AI in the enterprise.

The disturbing incident took place in Krishnagiri, where 28-year-old K Mahendran, a devoted supporter of Thalapathy Vijay, reportedly became heartbroken after false news of TVK’s defeat spread in his locality.

According to reports, Mahendran was seen in a disturbed state outside his house on Monday morning before he allegedly took the extreme step. Family members and nearby residents rushed to save him and immediately shifted him to Krishnagiri Government Medical College Hospital, where he is currently undergoing intensive treatment.

The shocking news has left Vijay fans across Tamil Nadu worried, with many social media users calling the act unfortunate and urging supporters not to take politics so personally.

Rumours Said Defeat, But TVK Was Busy Delivering The Biggest Election Surprise

What makes the incident even more heartbreaking is that while Mahendran was upset over rumours of Vijay losing, the actual counting trends were telling a completely different story.

Thalapathy Vijay’s Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK), which entered electoral politics for the very first time, has emerged as one of the biggest shockers of the Tamil Nadu Assembly Elections 2026.

From early morning trends itself, TVK started racing ahead in a huge number of constituencies, leaving political experts and rival parties stunned. The ruling DMK looked under pressure, while AIADMK and TVK turned the battle into an intense three-cornered fight.

For a party that was launched only in 2024, Vijay’s rise on his debut election day has been nothing short of historic.

Vijay Had Promised A Political Revolution

Ever since Vijay announced that TVK would contest the elections independently without joining hands with BJP, DMK or AIADMK, fans had been waiting to see whether his screen popularity would convert into votes.

And now, judging by the counting trends, the actor seems to have pulled off exactly that.

TVK leaders have already expressed confidence that the party is here to stay and may completely change Tamil Nadu’s political future.

This Incident Has Left Everyone Emotional

Even as TVK workers celebrate Vijay’s massive performance, Mahendran’s suicide attempt has cast a painful shadow on the day.

The incident is a reminder of how deeply some fans connect emotionally with their favourite stars, especially when those stars step into politics.

Many people online are now requesting Vijay fans to remain calm and understand that no election result is worth risking one’s life.

As of now, Vijay has not reacted publicly to the incident, but the news has already become one of the most talked-about and heartbreaking stories linked to Tamil Nadu election day.

Hyderabad, April 26, 2026 (Sunday): A powerful and thought-provoking lecture was delivered in Hyderabad by noted Islamic speaker and legal professional Adv. Nizam A. Khan on the topic “Mobile Addiction and the Protection of Faith: Today’s Greatest Challenge.” The session drew significant attention as it addressed one of the most pressing issues of modern life—digital overuse and its spiritual consequences.

“Are We Using the Mobile… or Is It Using Us?”

Opening his address, Adv. Nizam A. Khan highlighted a common reality: people check their phones before sleeping and immediately upon waking. He posed a critical question to the audience:
“Are we using the mobile… or is the mobile using us?”

He emphasized that while every era has had threats to faith, in today’s time, the smartphone has become one of the biggest challenges. When misused, it can act as a tool of harm, but when used correctly, it can also become a source of benefit.

Mobile Addiction – A Modern-Day Fitna

Adv. Nizam A. Khan explained how mobile addiction is affecting individuals at multiple levels:

• Endless scrolling leading to loss of valuable time
• Easy access to inappropriate (haram) content
• Negligence in prayers and acts of worship
• Emotional numbness and spiritual decline
• Increased anxiety and unhealthy comparison through social media

Impact of Screen Time on Health

The lecture also addressed the psychological and physical harms of excessive screen time:

• Reduced focus and weak memory
• Disturbed sleep patterns
• Rising levels of anxiety and depression
• Weakening of real-life relationships

He briefly mentioned concerns related to mobile radiation, including headaches, fatigue, and potential long-term effects on the brain and eyesight.

Impact on Faith (Eemaan)

Adv. Nizam A. Khan warned that unchecked mobile usage leads to:

• Exposure to sinful content
• Backbiting, trolling, and online toxicity
• Showing off (riyaa) on social media
• Gradual detachment from remembrance of Allah

He referenced a hadith from Jami` at-Tirmidhi, noting that a time would come when holding onto faith would be like holding onto burning embers. He also cited verses from the Qur’an, including Surah Aal-e-Imran (3:103) and Surah Al-Baqarah (2:208), urging unity and complete submission to faith.

Role of Parents

Addressing parents, he stressed:

• Avoid excessive phone use in front of children
• Do not pacify children with mobile devices
• Ensure that upbringing (tarbiyah) comes from parents, not screens

He expressed concern that children today are exposed to inappropriate content at a very young age, and that violent games are negatively influencing their behavior.

How to Protect Faith

Adv. Nizam A. Khan offered practical guidance:

• Ask before consuming content: “Is this pleasing to Allah?”
• Limit social media usage
• Block harmful content
• Develop digital modesty and accountability

He encouraged strengthening faith through:

• Daily recitation of the Qur’an
• Praying five times with focus
• Regular remembrance (Zikr)
• Good company and Islamic learning
• Establishing the habit of Tahajjud

Ways to Overcome Mobile Addiction

He suggested actionable steps:

• Set screen time limits
• Avoid mobile use before sleep and after waking
• Turn off unnecessary notifications
• Practice weekly social media detox
• Engage in physical activities and reading
• Create mobile-free zones at home
• Monitor daily usage consciously

Motivational Reflection

He concluded with impactful lines:

“Not every light from a screen illuminates the soul;
Some lights only deepen the darkness within.”

Powerful Closing Message

In his closing remarks, Adv. Nizam A. Khan stated:
“The greatest struggle today is against our own desires and our mobile phones. If we fail to control them, they will control our faith.”

The lecture served as both a warning and a wake-up call, urging individuals to regain control over their digital habits and safeguard their spiritual well-being.

Parag, Ferreira Rescue Rajasthan After Early Collapse

The Rajasthan innings had stuttered, losing Vaibhav Sooryavanshi and Yashasvi Jaiswal early to reach 12 for 2. Parag, coming in at this stage, had nerves but it was not long before he rose to the challenge of a struggling team with his 90 off 50 balls helping the Royals reach a strong total of 225/6 against Delhi Capitals. 

Parag brought up his fifty in 32 deliveries and formed a crucial 102 run partnership with a steady Dhruv Jurel (42). He would continue to hold one end after Jurel had fallen, and formed a partnership with Ravindra Jadeja although the both fell in their cause. The strong finish to the innings, however, was down to Donovan Ferreira's quick fire 47 off only 14 balls, which took the Royals past 220.

Axar Patel Praises Team After Victory

Axar Patel , DC captain said, “Even in the last interview, I have kept telling you have to keep doing the right things, happy with the way the boys played. We executed our plans and as a captain I can't be happier, in the powerplay you take the game away from them then it makes me happy. He is a legend, after three months he's playing and to put in such a performance, shows why he's such a great player. I was playing as a leader in the Indian team, the decision making is something you have to work on and the coaches helped me as well. It is fine, icing has been done. Sorry for your loss and I would like to dedicate this win to the Delhi fans” regarding the win.

Araghchi Accused Of Bypassing Iran Presidency

According to Iran International, the president and speaker claim that Araghchi acted behind their backs in negotiating with Washington over nuclear talks, by implementing directives from the Revolutionary Guard (IRGC).

Pezeshkian and Ghalibaf claim that Araghchi deliberately circumvented the presidency for the last two weeks, acting more like an aide, rather than a government minister, for the IRGC's head, Ahmad Vahidi. According to sources Araghchi has been executing orders from Vahidi without informing Pezeshkian, who allegedly plans to sack him if the latter continues. There is no official comment from the Iranian authorities, so far.

Pezeshkian Raises Wartime Governance Concerns

This sort of rift in Iran's administration is not new. Reports from March 28 clearly indicate that Pezeshkian and Vahidi were having sharp disagreements on war management and the ensuing socio-economic fallouts of the latter. According to the sources Pezeshkian expressed increasing dissatisfaction over "a complete political deadlock" and the loss of control over key positions in government during wartime.

According to those sources, Vahidi stated that owing to the sensitive circumstances, key managerial positions were to be managed directly by the Revolutionary Guard until further notice.

Ghalibaf Quits Negotiation Team Amid Disputes

Exacerbating the issues, Iran International claims that the Parliament Speaker, Ghalibaf, stepped down as chief of the negotiations team following a rebuff for including nuclear energy in the talks. It was after Ghalibaf relinquished his post as chief of the team that Araghchi purportedly tried to step up as the negotiations chief.

Araghchi later travelled on his own to Islamabad on April 24 to convey Tehran's proposal to Pakistan officials. As per media sources, the US President rejected the proposal. Although there has been no official confirmation over attempts to dismiss Araghchi, the disputes reportedly point to escalating leadership struggle within the administration during sensitive geopolitical times coupled with frozen talks with the US.

Tourism Department Faces Scrutiny

A day earlier, the weather department issued a warning for strong winds of 40-50 kmph on Thursday for Jabalpur. It has been claimed that even after receiving the warning, the cruise boat was allowed into the water on Thursday around 4:30 pm. Now, the tourism department is under the scanner that operates the facility. The cruise service in Bargi dam has been functional since 2006 as a water-based tourism initiative.

Six Dead After Bargi Dam Mishap

A cruise boat carrying over 30 passengers capsized in the Bargi dam in Jabalpur district of Madhya Pradesh on Thursday evening as it lost balance amidst sudden stormy weather conditions. While six bodies have so far been retrieved from the overflowing waters of the dam built on the river Narmada, 15 passengers have swam to safety. 

The incident took place near Khamaria Tapu (island) in Bargi dam area. According to initial inputs, the accident happened because of the sudden stormy weather, triggered high wind and waves, leading to the capsizing of the cruise boat which gradually sank into the waters.

Rescue Operations Continue Amid Poor Visibility

Rescuers are engaged in rescue efforts on a war footing but they are unable to get any lead as visibility is poor, officials said. The water bodies were being scanned using boats and equipment, police and SDERF personnel searching for the missing passengers and those who had sustained injuries. At least 10 passengers have been reportedly missing in the waters of bargi dam. Police are conducting intense search and rescue operations.

Officials Oversee Rescue Efforts

Jabalpur District Collector Raghvendra Singh and Superintendent of Police Sampat Upadhyaya have rushed to the spot, while taking charge of the ongoing rescue operations. Preliminary inputs indicated sudden storm was the primary cause, although an official investigation may be conducted, to confirm that all safety protocols were being adhered to.

RCB Collapse Amid Bowling Pressure

Gujarat bowled first after winning the toss, and stopped the opponents at 155 in 19.1 overs. Virat Kohli took 5 boundaries off one over but was bowled in his next delivery. The middle order continued to fall apart for RCB, who lost wickets at an astonishing clip. RCB scored just 155 off 19.2 overs.

GT Captain Shubman Gill and Jos Buttler both played an impressive yet short innings against RCB. Bhuvneshwar Kumar kept RCB in the chase for a while. He took three wickets and slowed the scoring temporarily. Romario Shepherd’s spells added two more but was not enough to win RCB the game. Rahul Tewatia smashed his way and made Gujarat Titans win the game by four wickets.

Controversy Erupts Over Rajat Patidar’s Dismissal

Before being caught in the deep square leg, Rajat Patidar had been in a partnership of 44 runs with Devdutt Padikkal for the third wicket when Holder bowled the RCB captain in the eighth over. But, slow-motion replays revealed that perhaps Holder had grassed the ball one too many times. 

The TV umpire Abhijit Bhattacharya could have thought Holder had control and bowled Patidar out. Several RCB players were furious with Holder making gestures as if he had dropped the ball and Kohli appeared to argue with the reserve umpire Parashar Joshi. RCB coach Andy Flower was later caught in an argument with the reserve umpire too.

Gill Credits Fielding and Team Effort

Shubman Gill, GT captain said, "Feels very satisfying, you know, on a wicket like this, restricting a team like them under 160 was a tremendous job by the bowlers. (reason for the win tonight?) I think our fielding was one of the things, it's something I think at phases, we haven't fielded that well in the game. And I think today was one of those days, everyone came together. The energy in the field was very, very nice, especially after the second over, Virat bhai hit us for some runs and how we all came back together. That was very crucial for us" regarding the win.

A Bench of Chief Justice Surya Kant and Justice Joymalya Bagchi while hearing the plea by AIIMS to set aside its earlier order, directing it to allow medical termination of pregnancy by a 15-year-old at 30 weeks of gestation, held that time limit is non-existent when the pregnancy is a result of rape.

Court Highlights Trauma in Child Rape Case

The bench further directed that this was a case of child rape and said that the survivor will be dealing with lifelong scars and trauma if termination is refused. It also directed that termination must be carried out if the mother has no permanent physical disability and directed AIIMS to counsel the parents about the issue, emphasizing that the final decision must rest with the victim. 

“Please amend your law so that when there is pregnancy due to rape etc, then time limitation will not be there. The law needs to be organic and in sync with evolving times. Also amend the law so that such trials are completed within a week. Why should the child suffer the pending trauma of the trial also,” the Supreme Court said.

Bench Stresses Victim’s Reproductive Freedom

The court stressed the importance of reproductive autonomy. It observed that if the victim does not have a physical disability, termination should be permitted, especially in child rape cases. 

“This is a curative petition. Unwanted pregnancy cannot be thrust on a person. Imagine. She is a child. She should be studying now. But we want to make her a mother. Imagine the pain, the humiliation the child has suffered in this,” the court said.

ASG Opposes Termination Citing Risks

Additional Solicitor General Aishwarya Bhati had opposed the medical termination, submitting a curative petition and said that it was not possible to terminate the pregnancy. 

Bhati said, “It will be a live baby with severe deformities. Minor mother will have lifelong health issues and cannot reproduce. This child can be given for adoption. It has been 30 weeks now. It is a viable life now.” 

SC Upholds Right to Terminate 30-week Pregnancy

A Bench of Justices B V Nagarathna and Ujjal Bhuyan had last week allowed a 15-year-old girl to terminate a 30-week pregnancy on the grounds that her reproductive autonomy should be given the highest importance. The court had also rejected AIIMS's plea to review its order, holding that a pregnancy beyond 20 weeks and normality of the foetus are not reasons to deny medical termination of an unwanted pregnancy.

Despite global cloud platforms continuing their dominance at scale, many organisations are investigating alternatives that can deliver simplified infrastructure with better control. CloudPe grew on a very specific motive, focusing on performance, functionality, and creating a platform suitable for the Indian environment.

Built for India, Not Adapted for It

CloudPe is relevant because it is building infrastructure for India, not local systems for the region from GLOBAL. It runs on data centres in the country, allowing companies to achieve low latency and comply with local data regulation and law.

It enhances performance for enterprises that serve users in India the most, and ensures applications are responding swiftly, similar to being routed through the local region, essentially. It is also important for businesses that must keep data within national boundaries, as it is a growing compliance requirement.

CloudPe, unlike the global platforms that spread to multiple continents' infrastructures, is intended for more localized use. This emphasises regional deployment and accessibility, which is generally more important for domestic use.

Simplicity Over Layered Complexity

Cloud platforms are often criticised for being difficult to navigate, especially for teams without deep infrastructure expertise. CloudPe addresses this issue by focusing on a simplified architecture that reduces unnecessary complexity.

The platform offers essential services such as virtual machines, Kubernetes, storage, networking, and GPU infrastructure through a unified interface. This means teams do not need to move between multiple dashboards or manage fragmented tools to run their workloads.

By reducing the number of steps required to deploy and manage resources, CloudPe allows teams to spend less time on configuration and more time on development. This is particularly useful for startups and growing businesses that need to move quickly without building large infrastructure teams.

Transparent Pricing and Cost Control

One of the most common concerns with cloud adoption is unpredictable billing. Many businesses struggle to understand how usage translates into cost, especially when multiple services and variables are involved.

CloudPe positions itself around transparent pricing, where businesses can clearly understand what they are paying for. This approach helps organisations plan their infrastructure budgets more effectively and avoid unexpected charges.

The platform also focuses on reducing hidden costs that typically arise from data transfer or additional services. By offering straightforward pricing models, it supports better financial control, which is a major advantage for companies operating with tight budgets.

Performance Designed for Real Workloads

Cloud performance is not just about peak capacity but about consistency under real usage conditions. CloudPe uses NVMe-based storage and high-performance infrastructure to support applications that require fast data access and stable performance.

The platform also offers dedicated resources rather than heavily shared environments, which helps reduce performance fluctuations. This is particularly important for businesses running customer-facing applications, analytics workloads, or data-intensive processes.

In addition, CloudPe supports high IOPS storage and high-bandwidth networking, enabling it to handle workloads such as AI processing, SaaS applications, and enterprise systems. These capabilities ensure that performance remains consistent as workloads scale.

Supporting Modern and Emerging Use Cases

As businesses adopt newer technologies, cloud infrastructure must support more than just basic hosting. CloudPe includes capabilities for modern application development, including container orchestration through Kubernetes and GPU-based computing for AI and machine learning workloads.

This makes the platform suitable for a wide range of use cases, from simple web applications to advanced data processing and AI-driven solutions. Teams can deploy containerised applications, run scalable services, and experiment with new technologies without needing separate infrastructure providers.

By bringing these capabilities together in one platform, CloudPe reduces the need for complex integrations and external tools.

Security and Reliability as Core Features

Security is a critical concern for any business operating in the cloud. CloudPe integrates security features such as network isolation, firewalls, and continuous monitoring into its infrastructure.

The platform has also achieved certifications such as SOC 2 Type II, which reflects adherence to established security and operational standards. This provides additional confidence for businesses handling sensitive data.

In terms of reliability, CloudPe offers uptime commitments and continuous monitoring, ensuring that systems remain available and responsive. For organisations running critical workloads, this reliability is essential.

Managed Services That Reduce Operational Load

Managing cloud infrastructure can be time-consuming, especially for teams without dedicated operations staff. CloudPe addresses this through managed services that include 24/7 monitoring, automated maintenance, and performance optimisation.

These services help businesses maintain their infrastructure without needing to handle every technical detail internally. Faster response times and proactive monitoring reduce downtime and improve system stability.

By offloading routine infrastructure management, teams can focus more on their core business activities.

Why Businesses Are Making the Shift

The growing interest in CloudPe reflects a broader change in how businesses evaluate cloud platforms. Instead of choosing the largest provider, organisations are looking for solutions that match their operational needs.

CloudPe stands out by combining local infrastructure, simplified operations, transparent pricing, and modern capabilities into a single platform. It offers an approach that is easier to adopt, easier to manage, and better aligned with how many Indian businesses operate today.

Conclusion

Cloud computing is no longer just about access to technology; it is about how effectively that technology can be used. Platforms that reduce complexity, improve cost visibility, and deliver consistent performance are becoming more relevant.

CloudPe’s growth highlights this shift. By focusing on practical infrastructure and real business requirements, it is positioning itself as a strong contender in India’s cloud ecosystem. For organisations seeking a simpler and more predictable cloud experience, this approach is becoming increasingly appealing.
