Bengaluru (Karnataka) [India], July 07: Following its entry into the market in April, SharkNinja APAC has announced a partnership with Bollywood stars Ananya Panday and Chunky Panday for its first local campaign in India, featuring Ninja, America’s No. 1 Small Kitchen Appliance Brand*. Rooted in Ninja’s core philosophy to solve real-world problems that others miss, the campaign brings a relatable, humorous intergenerational dynamic to the everyday routines and cooking debates of modern Indian households.

Opening with a playful narrative that sparked buzz across media, the campaign turns Ananya’s “tired of chunky” comment into a product-led reveal. She was not talking about her father, but about the uneven blends and everyday hassle of bulky traditional blenders, setting the stage for the sleek, cordless convenience and smooth performance of the Ninja Blast Portable Blender.

It also addresses the familiar Indian household question of what to make for dinner. In a series of humorous films, Chunky transforms into a “Cooking Ninja,” surprising Ananya with dishes such as biryani and fries, all made in the Ninja Combi 14-in-1 Multicooker. The films showcase how one versatile appliance can help families cook multiple favourites at the same time with greater ease.

"For our first local campaign in India, we wanted partners who could bring warmth, humour, and familiarity to SharkNinja’s story. Ananya and Chunky Panday have a natural chemistry that helps us connect with Indian consumers in a way that feels both relevant and relatable” said Mrunmay Mehta, MD & Country Head - India, SharkNinja APAC. 

Speaking on the partnership, Ananya Panday shared, “I really enjoyed working on this campaign because it brought out the relationship I share with my father in such a natural way. We got to be ourselves while doing something we both genuinely enjoy, which is spending time around food and cooking. I’m delighted to be associated with such an iconic global brand in this space.”

Chunky Panday added, “For me, the kitchen has always been a place for conversation, laughter, and shared moments. Doing this campaign with Ananya made it even more special, because our equation brought that same sense of warmth and fun to the screen. I’m thrilled to be associated with Ninja, such an iconic and trusted global brand”

The campaign brings the Ninja Blast and Ninja Combi into familiar Indian kitchen moments, from fresh blends during busy days to meals that bring different preferences to the same table with greater ease.

At Sri Ramakrishna Hospital, our specialists are witnessing a growing rise in stress-related neurological symptoms among people from all walks of life — students struggling with academic pressure, professionals facing burnout, homemakers carrying emotional overload, entrepreneurs under constant performance stress and elderly individuals silently cope with anxiety, loneliness, and sleep disturbances.

The Brain under Constant Stress

Neurology experts now understand that prolonged stress can keep the brain in a persistent “high-alert mode.” Over time, this may affect concentration, emotional stability, sleep quality, decision-making, memory processing, and overall neurological functioning.

What begins as “stress” may gradually present as:

• Forgetting simple things more often? 

• Feeling mentally exhausted even after sleep? 

• Constant headaches or heaviness in the head? 

• Sudden dizziness during stressful situations? 

• Difficulty concentrating at work or studies? 

• Feeling emotionally overwhelmed for no clear reason? 

• Irritability, over thinking, or panic sensations? 

• Disturbed sleep despite physical tiredness? 

• Neck tightness, body pain, or unexplained fatigue? 

• Feeling “switched on” all the time and unable to relax? 

Many individuals continue to push through these symptoms until their work, relationships, productivity, or quality of life begins to suffer.

The Modern Brain is Overloaded

Today’s lifestyle keeps the brain constantly stimulated:

• Continuous mobile phone and screen exposure 

• Poor sleep routines 

• Long working hours 

• Social media comparison and emotional burnout 

• Academic competition among students 

• Pressure to constantly perform and succeed 

• Emotional suppression and unresolved trauma 

• Lack of meaningful relaxation and connection 

Expert-Led Integrated Neurological Wellness

At Sri Ramakrishna Hospital, we strongly believe that stress-related neurological care should never be limited to symptom suppression alone. Our integrated and holistic care philosophy focuses on understanding:

• What the brain is experiencing 

• How emotional stress affects neurological functioning 

• The role of sleep, lifestyle, and emotional health 

• The hidden impact of chronic stress on the body and nervous system 

• Preventive strategies that support long-term wellness 

Our multidisciplinary team brings together neurological expertise, emotional wellness support, rehabilitation guidance, and lifestyle-focused interventions to create personalized recovery pathways for every patient.

Early Intervention Can Protect Long-Term Health

Experts warn that ignoring persistent stress-related symptoms may eventually affect both mental and physical health outcomes. Seeking timely support can help reduce the risk of deeper neurological and emotional complications while significantly improving daily functioning and quality of life.

Why Integrated Neurological Care Matters

At Sri Ramakrishna Hospital, we believe neurological health cannot be separated from emotional well-being. Our Integrated Neurological Care approach focuses on understanding the complete picture — not just treating symptoms temporarily.

Our multidisciplinary team helps patients through:

• Neurological assessment 

• Stress and emotional health evaluation 

• Sleep and cognitive wellness support 

• Lifestyle and burnout management 

• Psychological counseling and coping strategies 

• Preventive brain health care 

• Rehabilitation and wellness planning 

Why Sri Ramakrishna Hospital

Sri Ramakrishna Hospital has earned a strong reputation for excellence in neurosciences, advanced neurological care, and integrated patient-centered treatment. The hospital was recognized as the “Best Hospital for Cardiology and Neurology in the Kongu Region” at the prestigious Maruthuva Viruthugal 2025 awards, highlighting its outstanding contribution to neurological and neurocritical care services.

The hospital’s Neurosciences Centre is supported by experienced neurologists, neurosurgeons, advanced stroke care services, rehabilitation expertise, and modern neuro-diagnostic technology, making it one of the leading destinations for comprehensive brain and nervous system care in the region. Further strengthening its commitment to neurological excellence, Sri Ramakrishna Hospital has also been certified as an Advanced Stroke Centre, reflecting its high standards in stroke diagnosis, emergency neurological intervention, and multidisciplinary rehabilitation care.

Your Brain Deserves Care Too

Taking care of stress is not weakness — it is preventive healthcare. Whether you are a student struggling with pressure, a working professional facing burnout, a caregiver carrying emotional strain or someone silently coping with stress-related symptoms, support is available.

At Sri Ramakrishna Hospital, we are committed to helping individuals restore balance through compassionate, evidence-based, integrated neurological and emotional wellness care.

Because a healthier mind supports a healthier life.

One of the most advanced and highly effective methods to deal with this condition is metabolic weight loss surgery. This surgical method involves a process in which the digestive system of the patient undergoes several treatment processes, which help to lose weight in a healthier and faster process. Some of the Best Metabolic and Bariatric weight loss surgeons in Jalandhar say that these methods also help the body to regulate hormonal and metabolic functioning.

Metabolic Surgery: More Than Weight Loss

Metabolic weight loss surgery includes a wide range of processes and methods that are designed to help the patient achieve sustainable weight loss and a healthy lifestyle by altering the digestive system. Medical research shows these procedures trigger helpful hormonal and metabolic changes, which positively affect obesity-related diseases. Experts say obesity frequently lies at the root of many chronic illnesses, so managing weight is crucial for controlling these issues long-term.

How It Helps Patients with Type 2 Diabetes

The type 2 diabetes condition is linked to obesity and the insulin disorder in the body. Metabolic surgery helps people regulate blood sugar by boosting insulin sensitivity and altering gut hormones.

“Many patients experience significant improvement in their blood sugar levels after metabolic surgery, and in selected cases, diabetes remission may also be possible when combined with proper lifestyle modifications and medical supervision,” said Dr Amit Sood, a bariatric and metabolic surgery expert.

Healthcare professionals believe that surgeries should not be considered as an alternate option for healthy habits, but a part of the treatment process.

Benefits for High Blood Pressure and Thyroid-Related Issues

Too much body weight puts a lot of strain on the heart and cardiovascular system, which often leads to hypertension. Many studies show that the weight loss after metabolic bariatric surgery helps regulate blood pressure and reduces the risk of heart-related complications.

Obesity also causes thyroid-related conditions, and through metabolic weight loss and bariatric surgery, this can also be controlled indirectly. This surgical method does not cure thyroid disorders, but the improved metabolic function and weight management can help alleviate symptoms associated with obesity and support overall endocrine health.

Importance of Choosing the Right Treatment Path

Doctors advise a full check-up before metabolic surgery. They look at BMI, current health issues, past treatments, and general health. Qualified experts need to examine all these factors first. As obesity awareness grows, more patients are looking for top-notch treatment and consulting the experienced professional and some of the best bariatric surgeons in Jalandhar.

With increasing scientific evidence supporting its effectiveness, metabolic surgery is emerging as a valuable option for patients struggling with obesity and related metabolic disorders, offering the potential for improved health outcomes and a better quality of life.

 ~ Hon’ble Governor Thiru. Rajendra Vishwanath Arlekar Inaugurated the 60 bed Facility at Valasaravakkam

Chennai, June 30, 2026 : Athulya Senior Care, India’s largest assisted living provider, today inaugurated Athulya Geriatric Care Hospital, its first exclusive hospital dedicated to geriatric care, at Valasaravakkam, Chennai. The facility marks a significant milestone in the senior care landscape, completing Athulya’s 360° elder care continuum spanning specialised Geriatric Hospital Care, Assisted Living, and Home Care under one integrated ecosystem.The facility was inaugurated by Thiru. Rajendra Vishwanath Arlekar, Hon’ble Governor of Tamil Nadu, in the presence of Dr. Karthik Narayan, Founder and Managing Director, Athulya Senior Care, Mr. Srinivasan. G, Founder and CEO, Athulya Senior Care, and Miss. Krishna Kavya, Founder and Director, Athulya Senior Care, healthcare professionals, senior care experts, industry leaders, and distinguished guests.

The launch comes at a critical inflection point as India’s elderly population projected to reach 193.4 million by 2031 (NSO). Yet country’s geriatric healthcare infrastructure lags far behind against a projected need for 4,00,000 senior care beds, where only around 20,000 are currently available. The organised assisted living sector covers fewer than 4,500 units nationally. Tamil Nadu alone has around 10 million people above the age of 55, a figure that makes the gap in specialised geriatric healthcare infrastructure impossible to ignore.

Athulya Geriatric Care Hospital offers comprehensive medical services supported by over 20 doctors across 10+ disciplines, with specialised Centres of Excellence spanning Geriatric Intensive Care, Orthopedics & Rehabilitation, General & Laparoscopic Surgery, Neurology, Urology, and Psychiatry. The hospital brings together multidisciplinary expertise across medical specialities including cardiology, oncology, nephrology, and rehabilitation medicine, enabling coordinated care for the complex and evolving healthcare needs of older adults.

The integrated model focuses on managing complex multi-morbidity cases, chronic disease management, recovery, rehabilitation, and long-term care requirements, enabling continuity of care rather than episodic treatment.

Commenting on the new facility launch, Mr. Srinivasan G., Founder & CEO, Athulya Senior Care, said, “Over the years, Athulya has built a strong eldercare ecosystem through Assisted Living, Home Care, and transitional care services. The launch of our dedicated Geriatric Care Hospital is a natural and necessary expansion of that vision, completing the continuum of care for seniors. Elderly individuals often require healthcare systems that go beyond episodic treatment and instead offer continuity, rehabilitation, safety, and specialised geriatric expertise. This hospital has been designed to address those needs comprehensively while preserving the dignity and quality of life of every senior we serve.”

Adding perspective on the clinical significance of the facility, Dr. Karthik Narayan, Founder and Manging Director, Athulya Senior Care said, “The healthcare needs of seniors are often complex and require a care model that goes beyond traditional treatment approaches. Effective geriatric care involves addressing multiple dimensions of ageing, including medical conditions, mobility, recovery, cognitive health, and long-term care requirements. With Athulya Geriatric Care Hospital, our focus has been to create a specialised clinical framework supported by dedicated infrastructure, geriatric expertise, and multidisciplinary care teams. The facility is designed to establish a structured approach to geriatric healthcare, supporting personalised treatment pathways, better clinical decision-making, and improved quality of care for seniors.”

As Tamil Nadu and the nation prepare for an unprecedented ageing reality, Athulya’s Geriatric Care Hospital stands as both a clinical milestone and a call to action for the broader healthcare sector to put the needs of seniors at the centre of care design.

About Athulya Geriatric Care Hospital

It is a multi-specialty healthcare institution in Chennai, purpose-built exclusively for older adults. The hospital combines advanced medical expertise with age-friendly infrastructure and compassionate care. Organized through six Centres of Excellence - Geriatric Intensive Care, Orthopedics & Rehabilitation, General & Laparoscopic Surgery, Neurology, Urology, and Psychiatry - the hospital delivers specialized care addressing the unique needs of elderly patients. Features include round-the-clock geriatric emergency services, diagnostic and surgical facilities, dedicated rehabilitation programs, and a healing garden. Designed to international safety standards, the hospital completes Athulya's comprehensive care continuum spanning assisted living, home healthcare, and palliative services. It prioritizes maintaining independence, dignity, and well-being in every senior. For more information, visit: www.athulyageriatriccare.com

The Language of the Heart

We often get tripped in our healing journey because we lack the vocabulary to name our own pain. We label everything as stress or sadness and wonder why the feeling never fades.

I lived in a loop for a long time, constantly running on fumes, telling everyone and myself that I was ‘busy’. I thought I just needed to be more productive or manage my time better. But one day, I realized I wasn't just ‘busy’. I was over functioning because I felt responsible for everyone else’s comfort and emotional stability. The moment I stopped calling it ‘busyness’ and named it over-responsibility, everything changed. I stopped trying to do more, and I started learning how to let other people carry their own weight. That wasn't a time management issue, it was a boundary issue, and finally naming it gave me the power to shift it. 

So, when you feel a sharp emotion just, pause. If you feel ‘sad’, look closer. Are you betrayed? Are you disillusioned? When you can accurately label an emotion, you stop being a prisoner to a feeling that you do not understand. This feels like you busted an overwhelming cloud into a clear, manageable path.

Solve what you can

Once you have named the feeling, you must deal with the cause. The best solutions are rarely the most complicated ones. Life requires a bit of cleverness, an innovative, simple and sometimes unconventional way to protect your peace. When your energy is being spent on the wrong things, you don't need a massive overhaul. You need a small, clever adjustment that may be a kind of deliberate change that turns a drain into a boundary. A firm boundary, a change in routine, or a simple ‘no’ can often be the most effective medicine. When you identify the cause, you move from being a victim of your emotions to being the person who can manage them.

Respect your own pace

The most common mistake people make is comparing their healing journey to someone else’s. We see someone moving on quickly and we judge ourselves for lagging behind. But just as everyone has a different physical metabolism, everyone has a different mental metabolism. Some process a loss in a week, others may take a season. Your timing is not wrong to process your emotions, it is simply yours. Trust that you are moving at the exact speed required for your growth.

A Note on True Clarity

Before we try any rituals, we have to be honest, sitting in silence is not a substitute for solving your problems. If you close your eyes and meditate without acknowledging what is actually wrong, you are merely taking a mental painkiller. It might dull the ache for a moment, but it leaves the root cause untouched. Healing requires the courage to feel the weight of your experience, and the wisdom to solve the problem causing it. Silence should be a space to see the truth, not a place to hide from it.

Unpacking: A Simple Ritual

At the end of each day, instead of carrying your emotional baggage into your sleep, take two minutes to ‘unpack’.

●      Empty the Bag: Ask yourself, what heavy things are you carrying from today? Maybe it was a sharp comment, a worry about the future, or an old frustration that flared up.

●      Label it: Don't just call it ‘stress’, identify the specific item (emotion). Is it regret? Worry? Exhaustion? Just naming them makes them feel smaller.

●      Set it down: Imagine yourself physically taking those items out of your bag and setting them on the floor beside your bed. Tell yourself, ‘These things happened today, but they do not belong in my tomorrow’.

Taking Back the Controls

Healing is not about becoming a new person, it is about finally meeting the person who has been waiting patiently beneath your armor all along. You are the sole pilot of your life. When you take the steering wheel back from the past traumas and outside expectations, you are not just recovering but you are coming back.

You were always there. You were just waiting to come home!

I know it doesn't always feel like a win. Some days, it feels like stumbling in the dark, wondering if you are actually making progress.

I have spent many nights asking myself if I was moving forward or just stuck in the same place. But I have learned that this doubt isn't a sign that you are failing, it is just the sound of your old, heavy habits trying to hold on.

Remember, you were never broken, you were only hidden. You are the architect of your own peace, and you get to decide what your ‘homecoming’ looks like. Every small change you make, every boundary you set, every ‘no’ you say, and every moment of kindness you give yourself is a brick in the foundation of the life you are building. It's a life where you no longer just survive the storm, but slowly and steadily, learn to choose your own path. (Also read ‘Beyond the easy child: Is your child confident or just surviving?’

 The American Heart Association recognizes Sri Ramakrishna Hospital in Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu for its commitment to evidence-based, quality care for patients with chest pain and heart attacks.

COIMBATORE, 27 June 2026: Sri Ramakrishna Hospital has been recognized by the American Heart Association, the world's leading nonprofit organization dedicated to improving heart and brain health for all, as first Comprehensive Chest Pain Center in Tamil Nadu. This prestigious certification signifies the hospital's role as a critical component in the nation's healthcare system, helping bridge gaps that delay heart attack patients from receiving timely access to appropriate, life-saving treatment.

The certification was officially announced and unveiled today during a press meet organized by Sri Ramakrishna Hospital. The event was led by Dr. Sundar Ramakrishnan, Managing Trustee, SNR Sons Charitable Trust, and was attended by Shri. C. V. Ramkumar, Chief Executive Officer, SNR Sons Charitable Trust; Shri. D. Maheshkumar, Chief Administrative Officer, SNR Sons Charitable Trust; and Dr. S. Rajagopal, Medical Director, Dr. S. Alagappan, Medical Superintendent, Sri Ramakrishna Hospital, along with senior consultants and specialists from the Department of Cardiology. The experts highlighted the significance of this international certification and reaffirmed the hospital's commitment to delivering world-class cardiac care.

Cardiovascular disease remains one of the leading causes of death in Tamil Nadu, accounting for approximately 36% of all deaths among people aged 30 to 69 years. Furthermore, the most recent available data indicates a 12.5% year-on-year increase in heart attack-related deaths. The growing burden of cardiovascular disease and its associated disability underscores the importance of continually improving the treatment of ST-elevation myocardial infarction (Heart Attack) - the most severe type of heart attack.

The American Heart Association's Comprehensive Chest Pain Center Certification recognizes hospitals that meet or exceed rigorous quality standards in the treatment of patients experiencing Heart Attack. This certification is awarded to healthcare institutions that demonstrate excellence in promptly diagnosing heart attacks and delivering advanced treatment.

A Comprehensive Chest Pain Center is equipped with the expertise, infrastructure, and advanced technology required to provide rapid intervention for Heart Attack patients, including Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) - a life-saving mechanical procedure used to restore blood flow to the heart. Certified centers must also demonstrate an organizational commitment to evidence-based protocols, continuous quality improvement, and coordinated care for patients presenting with chest pain.

"Worldwide, heart disease remains the leading cause of death - when someone suffers a heart attack, time is critical," said., Incoming Co-Chair persons of the American Heart Association's International Committee. "Hospitals and health care providers need to be prepared to coordinate care quickly and efficiently. We developed the Comprehensive Chest Pain Center Certification to help hospitals create an integrated and collaborative approach to cardiovascular care, improve outcomes for patients with cardiovascular disease, and provide certified care to patients with Heart Attack and Non- Heart Attack.”

The American Heart Association's goal through this certification initiative is to significantly reduce cardiac deaths by increasing public awareness of heart attack symptoms, encouraging timely medical intervention, reducing delays in receiving life-saving treatment, and improving the accuracy and effectiveness of care.

Dr. Sundar Ramakrishnan, Managing Trustee, SNR Sons Charitable Trust, said, "This certification is a significant milestone in the continued growth of Sri Ramakrishna Hospital and a proud achievement for our Department of Cardiology. It reflects our commitment to building a healthcare ecosystem that combines advanced technology, clinical excellence, and international quality standards. Our focus remains on ensuring that every patient receives timely, evidence-based cardiac care of the highest standard."

Mumbai : For any newcomer, sharing screen space with an experienced performer such as Sai Kumar is a challenge. Yet Priyanka Prasad approaches her role with remarkable confidence and sincerity.

As Goyya Lakshmi Prasanna, Priyanka delivers a performance rooted in natural expression rather than exaggerated dramatics. Her portrayal reflects innocence, emotional vulnerability, and strength in equal measure. What stands out most is her ability to remain believable in emotional scenes while maintaining a strong screen presence.

Her expressive eyes, subtle body language, and controlled emotional graph allow her scenes to feel organic. Rather than attempting to dominate the screen, she focuses on serving the story, a quality often associated with performers who enjoy long careers in cinema.

Industry observers often note that a debut performance is judged not merely by dialogue delivery but by how comfortably an actor inhabits a character. In Pranaya Godari, Priyanka succeeds in making her character feel authentic and relatable to audiences.

One of the film's strengths is the chemistry between the lead pair.

Veteran actor Sai Kumar is known for commanding performances and powerful dialogue delivery. Sharing meaningful scenes with such an accomplished actor can be intimidating for a newcomer.

However, Priyanka Prasad demonstrates commendable maturity. While Sai Kumar provides dramatic weight and authority, Priyanka complements the narrative with emotional depth and sincerity. The contrast between experience and youthful energy works effectively for the film and enhances her credibility as an actress.

Following the film's release, audience discussions highlighted the performances of the cast, particularly the fresh pairing and emotional storytelling. Viewer feedback on entertainment platforms frequently mentioned the acting performances and overall presentation of the film.

For a debut actress, generating positive conversation among Telugu audiences is often the first step toward a sustainable career, and Priyanka appears to have achieved exactly that.

After establishing herself through Pranaya Godari, Priyanka Prasad is increasingly being viewed as a performer capable of handling both commercial and content-driven cinema.

Industry circles indicate growing interest in seeing her explore projects beyond Telugu cinema, including Hindi-language films and digital content. Her combination of screen appeal, performance-oriented acting, and adaptability positions her well for opportunities in Mumbai and Hyderabad.

There is particular curiosity regarding her association with creative ventures being developed by Orbit Media Studio and Childhood Dreams Production, both of which are known for nurturing fresh storytelling and emerging talent. While official announcements are being on the floor soon. Industry watchers believe Priyanka has the potential to become a strong bridge between Telugu entertainment markets.

Every few years, an actress arrives whose greatest strength is not glamour alone but the ability to make audiences believe in the character she portrays.

If her debut is any indication, Telugu cinema may have discovered a performer capable of building a long and meaningful career across regional and national platforms. Her journey has only begun, but the confidence, poise, and emotional honesty displayed in Pranaya Godari make her an actress worth watching in the years ahead.

The massive Parad Shivling was created by Dhyan Guru Raghunath Guruji after nearly ten years of spiritual practice, research, and in-depth study of Parad science. Mercury, silver, gold, and extracts of 108 herbs were used in its creation. Spiritual scholars describe it as the world's largest Parad Shivling and a remarkable confluence of India's spiritual heritage, Parad science, and meditation traditions.

Beyond his spiritual work, Raghunath Guruji is also widely recognized as a renowned palmist and life guide who has counselled several prominent personalities from the film industry, business world, and public life. Over the years, he has guided celebrities including Bollywood actors Sanjay Dutt and Raveena Tandon, as well as public figures such as Member of Parliament Raghav Chadha and actress Parineeti Chopra. His unique blend of spiritual wisdom, palmistry, meditation, and personal mentoring has earned him a respected place among both spiritual seekers and members of the entertainment industry.

The Pran Pratishtha ceremony was held under the blessings of Guru Gorakhnath Maharaj's tradition, revered Pir Yogi Mahant Somnath Bapu of Girnar, and the guidance of Padma Bhushan Dr. Vijay Bhatkar. The event aimed to spread the message of world peace, human welfare, and positive energy.

Raghunath Guruji stated that the Shivling is not merely a religious symbol but a center for meditation, self-reflection, and positive consciousness. He added that the Shivling, created after years of research and spiritual practice, represents a message of human welfare and spiritual awakening. Earlier, in 2019, he had organized a grand Ashwamedh Yagya attended by nearly 10,000 people.

Known for his work across spirituality and personal transformation, Raghunath Guruji has built a following that extends beyond traditional religious circles. His interactions with actors, filmmakers, entrepreneurs, and political leaders have often highlighted the growing interest in spiritual guidance and holistic well-being among public figures. This unique connection with the entertainment industry has also made him a familiar name among film journalists and Bollywood observers.

Several eminent saints and dignitaries attended the ceremony, including Jagadguru Shankaracharya Swami Ji Maharaj, Shri Sudhanshu Ji Maharaj, Swami Kailashanand Giri Ji Maharaj, Swami Avdheshanand Giri Ji Maharaj, Swami Ravindra Puri Ji Maharaj, Shri Dinesh Chandra Ji, senior representatives of the Vishva Hindu Parishad, Sadhvi Ritambhara Ji, Acharya Manish Ji (HIIMS), MP Raghav Chadha, and State Minister and Ganga Sabha President Nitin Gautam.

Industrialist and social worker Rajeev Bansal played a significant role in organizing the event. He said, "I am a devotee of Sai Baba. By Baba's blessings, I received the opportunity to be a part of this divine mission. For me, this was an opportunity for service and devotion."

At the conclusion of the ceremony, Raghunath Guruji expressed gratitude to all saints, devotees, volunteers, and supporters. He specially acknowledged the contribution of Rajeev Bansal, whose dedicated efforts helped ensure the success of the grand event.

The success of the ceremony was also supported by Adarniya Dadashree, Manoj Toshniwal Family, Manoj Gohad, IG Takwale, Mamta Jiwal, Tarun Bhandari, Amit Agarwal, Ramesh Sanwarthiya, Dollarbhai Kotecha, Sudhir Agarwal, Raju Oswal, Jitendra Rathi, and many other devotees and well-wishers.

Alongside spiritual activities, Raghunath Guruji is actively involved in disability empowerment, women farmers' welfare, environmental awareness, and innovation-based social initiatives. Through DICCAI (Divyang Indian Chamber of Commerce & Industry), efforts are being made to promote self-employment and economic empowerment among persons with disabilities, with CEO Amit Agarwal playing a key role.

The event concluded with the message: "Meditation leads to Peace, Peace leads to Harmony, and Harmony leads to Global Welfare." Devotees described the ceremony as a historic confluence of spirituality, science, service, and human welfare.

The real world doesn't care if you can recite textbook theories or complete standardized assignments on a deadline. It cares about your ability to handle adversity, manage your own mind, and navigate the messy, unpredictable terrain of life. The traits that define true survival are resilience, grit and the courage to fail which are rarely found in a syllabus. 

If we want to prepare the next generation for the ‘real battles of life’, we need to start teaching what truly matters.

The ‘Who vs. the ‘What’

Schools operate on a model of compliance. They focus on the what (facts, dates and formulas) and the how (how to memorize, how to follow instructions, and how to pass a test) but they consistently ignore the who. Here, who is focusing on building the person underneath the grades which means learning how to trust your own judgment, how to manage your own stress, and how to make smart choices when no one is watching. Life doesn't ask you to recite facts, it asks you to solve problems. To do that, you have to develop your own character, your own voice, your own strength.

To truly be ready for the real world, you need to understand three things that are usually left out of the classroom: 

 Facts silently missing in school curriculum: 

●      The Fear of Failure: Schools teach us that failure is a permanent mark on record. In reality, failure is the only reliable ‘diagnostic tool’ which shows us what to change. When we are afraid to make mistakes, we stop taking the risks needed to grow and succeed.

●      Emotional Navigation: You might have the highest grades in your class, but if you don't know how to handle stress, anger, or disappointment, you will struggle because success in life depends on Emotional Intelligence (EQ) which is the ability to identify how you feel, manage your stress, and work well with others even when things get difficult.

●      System Literacy: Life doesn't come with a schedule once you leave school. Nobody will tell you when to study, when to save money, or when to speak for yourself. Taking charge of your life is very important and that will be done when you learn how to budget, how to operate your bank account, and how interest works.

You have to be your own representative. If you need help, ask for it. If you disagree with something, speak up respectfully. Nobody can advocate for your future as well as you can.

THE SKILLS YOU ACTUALLY NEED 

To succeed on your own terms, stop being a ‘student of the system’ and start being the architect of your own life let’s see how: 

●      Radical Resilience: Think of resilience as your internal ‘bounce back’ muscle. It’s not about never falling. It's about what you do once you're on the ground. When life knocks you down it will remember that your value isn't tied to the mistake or the setback. Your value is defined entirely by your response.

●      Self- Advocacy & Initiative: The world outside is not going to hand you a syllabus or tell you when your next assignment is due. Outside of school, there is no pre-set schedule to follow. You have to become the person who spots the problem, hunts down the resources to fix it, and has the courage to speak up for what you need, whether that's asking for help on a project, negotiating for your future, or taking a moment to protect your mental health. Initiative is about moving from ‘waiting to be told’ to ‘deciding to act’.

●      Practical Adaptability: The world changes much faster than any textbook can be updated. True intelligence today isn't about memorizing all the answers but it is about the ability to unlearn what is no longer useful and quickly adapt to new technology, changing environments, and unexpected surprises. Think of it like a ‘mental software update’ you must be willing to let go of old methods when they stop working so you can embrace the new skills needed to thrive.

ALWAYS REMEMBER YOU ARE THE ARCHITECT OF YOUR FUTURE 

Your education doesn't stop the moment you walk out of the classroom. School may have given you a starting point, but it is not the limit of what you can achieve.

If you feel like you aren't ready for ‘real life’ don't worry almost everyone feels that way. The secret isn't knowing everything but it is realizing that you don't need a teacher to tell you how to grow. Stop waiting for someone else to grade your progress. Instead, treat your life, your own personal expedition, your mistakes as data, your emotions as a compass and stay relentlessly curious.

The world isn't looking for more people who can just follow orders. It is looking for people who can solve problems, navigate uncertainty, and create their own path. You have everything, you need to start doing that right now.

In the field of orthopaedics, Dr. Vipin Singh, a prominent joint replacement surgeon based in Varanasi, has achieved a significant milestone by successfully completing more than 15,000 knee replacement surgeries.

This achievement highlights not only his clinical expertise but also his consistent track record in delivering reliable outcomes to patients suffering from chronic knee conditions.

A Remarkable Surgical Journey

Knee replacement surgery is a specialized procedure that involves removing damaged cartilage and bone from the knee joint and replacing them with artificial implants designed to restore smooth movement.

It is widely recommended for patients suffering from advanced arthritis, severe joint pain, or mobility restrictions.

Reaching a figure of 15,000 successful surgeries is a reflection of years of dedicated practice, precision, and patient trust.

Such a high volume of procedures allows a surgeon to develop refined techniques and a deeper understanding of complex joint conditions.

Dr. Vipin Singh’s experience spans a wide range of cases, including patients with severe deformities, age-related degeneration, and long-standing mobility challenges.

His ability to handle varied and complex cases has contributed significantly to his growing reputation in orthopaedic care.

Impact on Patient Lives

For most patients, knee replacement surgery is a life-changing decision.

Chronic knee pain often limits mobility, affects independence, and reduces overall quality of life.

Under the care of an experienced surgeon like Dr. Vipin Singh, patients have reported substantial improvements after surgery.

One of the most notable benefits is the significant reduction in joint pain, with many patients experiencing complete relief over time.

In addition, improved joint function enables individuals to perform everyday activities such as walking, standing, and climbing stairs with ease.

The surgery also helps in correcting joint deformities, restoring proper alignment and balance.

This not only improves physical comfort but also enhances confidence in movement.

Patients often describe a renewed sense of independence after recovery, as they are able to return to their normal routines and lead more active lifestyles.

While high-impact physical activities are generally avoided, the overall improvement in mobility contributes greatly to long-term well-being.

Blending Experience with Innovation

Apart from his extensive surgical experience, Dr. Vipin Singh is known for incorporating modern techniques and advanced technologies into his practice.

This includes robotic-assisted knee replacement and precision-based methods such as FAST + ALIGN.

These advancements enable:

• Accurate placement of implants
• Better joint alignment
• Reduced surgical error
• Improved durability of the replacement

By combining experience with innovation, Dr. Singh ensures that patients receive treatment that is both effective and aligned with current global standards.

His approach focuses on delivering not just immediate relief, but also long-term stability and performance of the knee joint.

Recovery and Patient Support

The success of knee replacement surgery extends beyond the operation itself.

Recovery and rehabilitation play a vital role in achieving desired outcomes.

Patients typically require a short hospital stay followed by a structured rehabilitation program.

Physiotherapy and guided exercises help in restoring strength and flexibility in the joint.

Dr. Vipin Singh emphasizes continuous patient support throughout this phase.

His approach includes detailed guidance on post-operative care, ensuring that patients are well-informed and actively involved in their recovery process.

Many patients have acknowledged the importance of this personalized care, which contributes to smoother recovery and better long-term results.

Recognition and Credentials

Dr. Vipin Singh’s work in orthopaedics has earned him recognition at multiple levels.

He has been honored with the Tribalizers Award for North India’s Orthopaedic Care and Medical Innovation, reflecting his contribution to advancing joint replacement practices.

His academic qualifications—M.B.B.S., M.S. (Orthopaedics), FJRS (Germany), and FIAS (Ahmedabad)—demonstrate a strong foundation supported by international exposure and specialized training.

These credentials, combined with his extensive surgical experience, reinforce his position as a trusted name in knee replacement surgery.

Strengthening Regional Healthcare

Practicing at Ashirvad Multispeciality Hospital, Varanasi, Dr. Vipin Singh is contributing to the growth of advanced healthcare services in the region.

The availability of modern infrastructure, including advanced operation theatres and surgical technologies, has made it possible for patients to access high-quality treatment without traveling to larger metropolitan cities.

Healthcare professionals believe that such developments are playing a key role in improving medical accessibility and raising standards in non-metro regions.

Conclusion

The milestone of 15,000 successful knee replacement surgeries is a significant achievement in the field of orthopaedics.

It reflects not only technical expertise but also years of patient trust and consistent performance.

For individuals considering knee replacement surgery, factors such as experience, technology, and patient care remain crucial.

In this regard, Dr. Vipin Singh’s extensive track record and patient-focused approach position him as a reliable choice for advanced joint replacement treatment in Varanasi.

A dreamer from a young age, Anjali started singing at the age of nine, discovering a deep and natural connection with music. Her voice soon became her identity, earning her recognition and admiration throughout her school years, where she won numerous competitions and accolades. In college, her artistic expression deepened as she explored original compositions, spiritual recitations, Sanskrit mantras and verses, and traditional Indian texts like the Ramcharitmanas, reflecting her innate connection with culture, devotion, and the sacred power of sound.

At a time when music was not widely embraced as a mainstream career, Anjali chose a more conventional path. She pursued Travel & Tourism Management and built a successful career in the aviation and travel industry. Working with renowned organizations such as MakeMyTrip, Air Mauritius, Azerbaijan Airlines, and Air Arabia, she rose to the position of Business Sales Manager. Yet, even amidst corporate success, her inner calling for music remained unwavering.

Determined to stay connected to her passion, Anjali continued her training in Indian classical music—initially through formal institutions and later under the guidance of her Guru, Vishudhi Shashwati Mandal ji. Over the years, she has performed on prominent stages and collaborated with leading brands like ICICI Bank, SBI, HT, Sonatech, and Adiveda, establishing herself as a versatile vocalist known for ghazals, retro Bollywood, and devotional music.

After nearly a decade of dedicated vocal training and self-discovery, Anjali made a defining choice—to step away from her corporate career and fully embrace music as her life’s purpose.

Deeply rooted in emotion and expression, Anjali believes in the profound healing power of music. Her work extends beyond performance—she uses music as a medium to support mental well-being, creating experiences that are calming, uplifting, and deeply immersive. This journey led her to explore the intersection of music and wellness, eventually becoming a certified Yoga and Meditation Coach from Rishikesh.

Over time, she has developed a versatile repertoire, performing across genres including:

Indian Folk | Sufi | Retro Bollywood | Bhajans—each delivered with authenticity and emotional depth.

Anjali is also known for her unique concept of Bhajan Clubbing—a contemporary fusion where devotion meets modern soundscapes. This innovative format blends spiritual depth with vibrant energy, creating experiences that resonate with diverse audiences.

Today, her performances span a wide spectrum of curated experiences, including:

• Luxury Weddings & Private Celebrations

• Corporate & Lifestyle Events

• Spiritual & Wellness Gatherings

• Exclusive Bhajan Clubbing Nights

As the Founder of Bhaav Bharat Global Events Pvt. Ltd., Anjali is committed to promoting Indian classical music and holistic wellness through yoga and music meditation. Her vision is to create soulful, high-vibrational experiences that heal, uplift, and reconnect people with their inner joy.

Anjali Rathore is not just a performer—she is an experience, bringing together music, emotion, and energy to create moments that stay with her audience long after the performance ends.

When Annisha Garg stepped onto the Cannes shoreline in a white pearl-and-floral ensemble by Rimzim Dadu, it wasn't just a fashion moment. It was a feeling, long held, finally released.

The look was everything quiet luxury should be. A structured bralette and a floor-length skirt, hand-sewn with Rimzim Dadu's signature cord technique, each strand moving like a feather in the sea breeze. Pearls and white florals layered through the silhouette, chosen not for aesthetics, but for meaning. Every detail was a quiet tribute to Guruji, her faith woven literally into the fabric. Weightless yet architectural, the ensemble felt like something between a garment and a prayer.

And it was. For an entire year.

"One of the looks, made with pearls and white flowers, reflected my faith towards my Guru Ji, my emotions, and the vision I had held onto for so long," Annisha shares.

This was that vision. A recreation of a pearl-inspired look she had carried through 2025, a year that tested her. The look never made it to Cannes then. But she never let it go either.

"After everything that happened in 2025, I couldn't let that dream remain unseen forever," she says. "I truly felt its purpose still had to be fulfilled at Cannes."

So she came back. Quieter, clearer, more herself. And she wore the look that waited. Styled with soft cascading waves, luminous barely there skin, and an almost deliberate absence of excess, the beauty look mirrored the garment perfectly. Nothing competed. Everything belonged.

In an era when Cannes fashion chases spectacle, Annisha's moment stood apart because it meant something. Faith, resilience, and the kind of beauty that only arrives after patience.

"For me, Cannes is no longer just about fashion or the red carpet," she reflects. "It's a reminder that sometimes life says 'not yet' before it finally says 'yes.'"

That silence happened multiple times during Poonam Panddey’s debut performance in Kali Salwar and the people in that room are still talking about it.

Director Atul Satya Koushik’s staging of Saadat Hasan Manto’s iconic story was already anticipated. Manto adaptations carry weight. They attract serious theatre crowds, people who’ve seen a hundred productions and will quietly dissect yours over chai afterward. These are not easy audiences to impress.

Poonam impressed them.

What nobody quite expected was how unshowy she was. Screen actors stepping onto stage for the first time tend to compensate bigger gestures, louder voices, filling the space the way they imagine it needs to be filled. Poonam did the opposite. She got still. She got specific. And somehow that stillness filled the entire room.

Manto’s women are not simple creatures. They carry histories in their eyes, contradictions in their posture, whole worlds of unsaid things in a single exhale. Playing them requires an actor willing to be exposed not performed, not presented, but genuinely exposed.

Poonam was exposed up there. In the best possible way.

Her dialogue delivery had texture. The vulnerability in one line, the quiet defiance underneath it, the way grief and humor live side by side in Manto’s writing she found all of it. Not perfectly, because perfection isn’t the point with Manto. Truthfully. And truth on a live stage, in real time, in front of strangers, is its own kind of courage.

By the end of the evening, the conversation in the lobby wasn’t about surprise or novelty. It was about performance. Pure, undeniable performance.

Poonam Panddey came to theatre. Theatre, it turns out, was waiting for her.

Appearing in an ocean-inspired couture ensemble crafted from recycled ocean plastic waste, Mohini Sharma made a striking statement at Cannes 2026 while spotlighting the urgent need for environmental awareness and responsible fashion. Inspired by the fluidity, beauty, and resilience of the ocean, her look merged contemporary couture with purpose-driven storytelling, reflecting the growing evolution of luxury fashion towards sustainability and mindful design.

Mohini Sharma, founder of Mrs India Inc and Femm International, returned to Cannes with a larger vision this year  one that placed Indian women, entrepreneurship, and cultural influence firmly within the global spotlight.

Over the years, she has created platforms that celebrated empowerment, international representation, and modern Indian identity, consistently using fashion and global events as mediums for impactful storytelling. Her Cannes appearance further reflected the growing presence of Indian entrepreneurs on influential international platforms beyond traditional business spaces.

This year’s Cannes appearance revolved around the theme of “Ocean” a symbolic creative direction highlighting both the magnificence of marine life and the urgent global conversation around ocean plastic waste. By transforming recycled plastic into couture showcased on one of the world’s most photographed red carpets, Mohini Sharma demonstrated that sustainability and high fashion could coexist powerfully on the global stage.

Beyond the red carpet, under Femm International, Mohini Sharma also led a curated delegation of accomplished Indian women to Cannes this year, including entrepreneurs, titleholders, and changemakers, further strengthening India’s growing cultural and entrepreneurial presence at the festival.

As international media, fashion houses, filmmakers, entrepreneurs, and cultural icons gathered at Cannes, Mohini Sharma’s appearance marked a defining moment for contemporary Indian representation one where fashion became a reflection of purpose, influence, sustainability, and global storytelling.

Every year, thousands of children get caught in the middle of a brutal legal war. On one side, you have a steady parent trying to keep the child's life safe and calm. On the other side, you have a parent dragging the child into the court, using the legal system to aggressively demand their “rights”.

But let's be honest about something, true love doesn't need a judge to force it. When a parent uses the court like a weapon, it's about their ego and pride, not their heart. 

If they truly cared about the child's feelings, they wouldn't need a court order to prove it.

The System’s Blind spot: Law vs. Emotion

The biggest challenge during legal litigation is that the system is fundamentally flawed. The law makers created rules based on cold structures, completely missing the emotional reality of a family.

●      No room for feelings: Courts operate on paper work, merit, technical laws, and financial standings. They do not and often cannot measure emotional value, a mothers silent tears, or a child unspoken fears.

●      The Surface Level Justice: A Parent who has been absent for years walks into the court with lawyer and financial documents and our system treats them as equal contender, ignoring the years of abandonment. The system counts the money in a bank account but fails to count the days of daily care and emotional presence.

Spotting the difference whether “Its love or ego”

How do you know if a parent is acting out of love or out of pride? 

It is simple: 

Love observes, understands, questions ‘How will this case affect my child? Are they happy? Are they safe?’ Love is willing to step back if it means the child gets some peace.

Ego asks: ‘How do I win the case? How can I prove the other parent wrong? What do I do to get the grip and control?’

To an ego driven parent, the child is not a human being with feelings. The child is a trophy to win or a tool to punish the other parent.

When a parent drags a child to court just because they have the ‘legal right’ to do so, we often miss the real battlefield:

1.       The Child Sees Everything, (the silent witness): Adults think children don't understand court papers or legal games. But children see everything. They are the ultimate witness to harassment, sleepless nights and the truth. They notice who shows up every single day and who only shows up when a lawyer tells them to.

 They notice when a parent uses them to spy or pass angry messages. They see through the fake promises. A child's heart remembers who actually protected them and who caused the stress.

2.       The Silent Burden of the Primary Caregiver: In our society, a primary caregiver, especially a mother is unfairly scrutinized and judged for doing everything alone. The ego- driven parent will struggle into ‘neglect’, completely ignoring the reality of managing a household, protecting the child's daily peace, and carrying the entire mental and financial load single handedly. True parenting is seen in the quiet , daily sacrifices to keep the child safe from a toxic environment, not in the loud accusations of someone who only shows up to disrupt that peace.

3.       The Myth of Joint Cooperation: Courtrooms often push for ‘joint decisions’, but to an ego-driven parent, joint custody is just an open door to cause delays. They use legal loopholes to delay school admissions, hold back medical signatures, and disrupt the child’s routine just to keep a toxic grip on the child’s peace.

The Destruction of Future Relationships

This prolonged legal warfare does more than just exhaust the child’s today also it ruins their tomorrow.

A child growing up seeing the parent use court orders as weapons, their faith in the relationship is shattered. They grow up carrying a deep negative impact regarding commitment and trust.

What the western countries do in these cases?

In western countries, the system puts a massive emphasis on psychological evaluation, child support enforcement, and moving the case quickly and focuses heavily on the child’s mental health so the child’s life isn’t frozen. But here, long court battles force children to live in a ‘survival mode’ for years, which damages how they view relationships later in life.

The Judgmental Society:

The trauma doesn’t stay inside the courtroom, society brings it right to the child’s doorstep. We live in a society that needs to desperately understand that marriage is not everything, but a child’s peace is.

People look at a single mother or a child from a broken home and ask pathetic, insensitive and toxic questions. Society must change its thought process and stop this loop of interrogation. A child’s wellbeing their personal will and what they want for their own safety should always stand far above the legal pressure and societal judgment.

A New Addition to Education: Teaching Children their Rights

If adults refuse to change, we must prepare the children. It is time to teach about basic laws, personal boundaries, and their legal rights directly in school textbooks.

If children read and understand these things early they will know what is right and what is wrong. They won’t be easily manipulated by an abusive parent or a confusing legal system. They will have the strength to say and stand for themselves.

The toll it takes on a child's body 

Children cannot always find the words to say, ‘I am scared and exhausted’. So, their bodies speak for them. The deep stress of being caught in a court battle often shows up as: 

●      Trouble sleeping or sudden bed wetting (even if they are older)

●      Stomach aches, headaches and constant anxiety.

●      Falling behind in school because their mind is too tired to focus.

This is what happens when a child is forced into “survival mode” instead of just being allowed to be a kid.

If you are a child going through this please remember these three things:

1. You are not a prize. You are an individual. Your peace of mind matters more than any adult's pride.

2. This is not your fault. This is an adult problem. You do not owe anyone a relationship just because a piece of paper says so.

3. Look for your anchor. Lean on the parent who gives you stability. The parent who handles your school, your meals and your daily hugs is your safe harbor.

The Quiet Truth Always Wins

Ego is very loud in a courtroom. It makes a lot of noise. But the quiet truth of life which we live every day is much stronger.

The law calls it continuous care, but it is real parenting with love and warmth. It is the parent who has consistently been there, year after year, building a shield of love around you.

A judge can sign a paper, but a piece of paper cannot force a real bond. In the end, the parent who truly loves you will always put your peace of mind ahead of their own ego. And that is the truth that outlasts any court battle.

Beauty Consciousness and Aesthetics in the Era of AI and Digital Technology

Today, we live in an instantaneous digital world where video calls replace travel, messaging apps connect us globally in seconds, and our lives are shaped by on-demand platforms. Just as technology has evolved toward seamless efficiency, the preservation facelift has redefined aging: why wait for a total reconstruction at sixty when you can choose subtle, early preservation now?

The paradigm shift in facial rejuvenation mirrors the leap from the analog to the digital age. The old era of facelifts — characterized by long incisions that often-left visible scars, deep anesthesia, and months of recovery — is thankfully behind us. These outdated methods, centred around the aggressive SMAS lift, frequently resulted in an unnatural appearance and necessitated the use of drains. Furthermore, expertise was confined to a handful of specialists in select Western cities, and the procedure was widely perceived as the exclusive preserve of celebrities.

Today, the landscape has been transformed. Modern techniques such as the preservation deep-plane lift are performed using sophisticated endoscopic methods, ensuring no visible scars and a recovery measured in weeks rather than months. This minimally invasive approach utilises gentle twilight anaesthesia and eliminates the need for drains, delivering a consistently natural, elegant outcome. The secrecy that once guarded these techniques has dissolved; the internet has levelled the playing field, enabling Indian surgeons to enhance their inherent skill with access to cutting-edge global technology.

As a result, cities such as Bengaluru are emerging as new global hubs for facelift surgery, reflecting the empowering conviction that everyone deserves access to the finest care. This evolution ensures that advanced cosmetic surgery is no longer an exclusive luxury, but a widely accessible standard of care.

Decades of training and dedicated high-end surgical practice, combined with a continuous commitment to updating skills and adopting the latest global advances, have resulted in the world-class anti-ageing procedures offered at Nypunya Aesthetic Clinic.

At Nypunya, everything is centred around you. The approach combines the changes you desire with what can be practically and naturally achieved — balancing your vision with clinical expertise. Anti-ageing procedures here are a collaborative effort, drawing on the finest technology and skill available, all customised exclusively for you.

Dr Prashantha Kesari Profile:

Dr. Prashantha Kesari is a Senior Cosmetic Plastic Surgeon at Nypunya Aesthetics Clinic, Bengaluru, with over 20 years of experience. Holding M.Ch, DNB, MRCS and an Advanced Fellowship in Cosmetic Surgery, he trained at LTM Medical College (Sion Hospital). He specialises in rhinoplasty, facelift, body contouring, and breast surgeries, and has developed surgical instruments and published scientific papers.

The announcement was made by IPS President-Elect Prof. Rajendra M. Gade, who described Prof. Gangawane as “a scientist who consistently bridged rigorous agricultural research with the real needs of farmers and rural communities.” The Award and Oration, which will commence in the 2026–2027 academic year, has been established with an initial endowment of ₹10 lakh donated by Mrs. Sushila Gangawane. The family has further pledged ₹90 lakh to support young scientist recognition, research encouragement and related academic initiatives in Prof. Gangawane’s memory, bringing the total family support for these initiatives to ₹1 crore.

The initiative has been conceived and shaped with the support and guidance of senior members of the scientific and academic community, including IPS President Dr. R. Viswanathan, IPS Secretary Dr. Malkhan Singh Gurjar, Professors and Heads of Botany Departments Dr. Vikram Khilare and Dr. Shivaji Kamble, and the Vice Chancellor of Mumbai University, Dr. Ravindra Kulkarni. Together they share the objective of promoting excellence in plant pathology and agricultural sciences nationwide.

Prof. L. V. Gangawane was widely respected across Indian agricultural science for his unique ability to combine scientific rigour with practical, farmer-oriented research across a career spanning more than four decades. Born into an agrarian family, he made pioneering contributions in rhizosphere microbiology, fungicide resistance, integrated disease management, biofertilizer technology and sustainable agriculture, with particular relevance to semi-arid farming systems.

As Head of the Department of Botany at Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar Marathwada University and later as Emeritus Professor, he played a pivotal role in strengthening research infrastructure in plant pathology and microbiology and in mentoring successive generations of scientists and researchers. His international engagements included research collaborations and invited lectures at institutions such as the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew (London), the University of Cambridge, the University of Bristol, Swansea University, Cairo University, Kasetsart University (Thailand), the University of Malaya (Malaysia) and Al Ain University (UAE). The Government of India also selected him under its Cultural Exchange Programme to deliver scientific lectures in Egypt.

Notably, during the 1970s; a period when advanced facilities for human viral research were limited in India, Prof. Gangawane experimentally demonstrated that the Hepatitis-B virus could be propagated on tobacco leaves. This work opened new experimental pathways for subsequent virological and vaccine-related research and was acknowledged in the internationally renowned medical journal The Lancet in 1976.

A prolific scholar, Prof. Gangawane authored more than 280 research papers and developed recognised methods for controlling seed-borne diseases in pigeon pea. Deeply committed to public outreach, he appeared on Doordarshan’s “Aamchi Mati Aamchi Manse,” delivered talks on All India Radio, and wrote Marathi-language scientific literature to communicate agricultural science to farming communities. He guided 42 Ph.D. scholars and served as President of the Indian Phytopathological Society in 2006. His contributions were recognised with several honours, including the Maharashtra State Ideal Teacher Award (2002), the Prof. M. S. Pavgi Award and the P. R. Verma Award.

In the foreword to the national seminar volume Biofertilizer Technology Transfer, renowned agricultural scientist and architect of India’s Green Revolution, Dr. M. S. Swaminathan, wrote: “We owe a deep sense of gratitude to Dr. L. V. Gangawane for this labour of love.”

The Award and Oration have been designed to uphold the values Prof. Gangawane embodied throughout his life; scientific excellence, translational agricultural research, institution building, mentorship and dedicated service to farming communities. IPS stated that the initiative is expected to evolve into a distinguished national platform encouraging young scientists working in sustainable agriculture, plant health and food security.

New Delhi [India], January 2: On the occasion of the New Year, a massive crowd of devotees gathered at Khatu Shyam Delhi Dham in Alipur, Delhi. The entire temple complex and surrounding areas resonated with chants of “Jai Shri Shyam.” According to estimates, more than 20 lakh devotees offered darshan to Shyam Baba, with the scale of the gathering drawing comparisons to the Kumbh Mela.

Ghanshyam Gupta Javeri, National President of Khatu Shyam Delhi Dham, stated that long queues for darshan had formed from the early hours of New Year’s Day. The atmosphere was steeped in devotion, echoing continuously with chants in praise of Shyam Baba.

He further shared that Khatu Shyam Delhi Dham, often described by devotees as a wonder of the world, witnessed queues stretching 4 to 5 kilometres as soon as people stepped into 2026. Despite the overwhelming crowd, devotees displayed remarkable enthusiasm and unwavering faith.

Darshan commenced as early as 1:00 a.m., and even at that hour, the surroundings reverberated with “Jai Jai Shyam.” Devotee lines were seen extending up to 6 kilometres. Throughout the event, discipline and devotion prevailed, as devotees welcomed the New Year by offering themselves at the feet of Shyam Baba.

On this occasion, the endeavour was led by S.S. Agarwal, Satyabhushan Jain, National Senior Vice President Hariom Goyal, National General Secretary Sanjeev Kumar Mittal, National General Secretary Ramesh Gupta, National General Secretary Pawan Singh, Madhu Gopal Goyal, Anil Gupta, and Naveen Garg.

Pilonidal sinus is a chronic condition that typically affects the area between the buttocks, often causing pain, swelling, discharge, and recurrent infections. Many patients struggle with repeated flare-ups, difficulty sitting, and significant lifestyle disturbances. Traditional surgical methods often involve large incisions, extended downtime, and prolonged wound healing. Thrissur Piles Clinic now addresses these challenges with a modern, minimally invasive solution that prioritises precision and recovery.

Dr Raviram S, who has performed thousands of proctology procedures, highlights the importance of offering painless, effective, and scientifically backed treatments. “Pilonidal sinus is a troublesome disease that often returns if not treated appropriately. Our advanced laser procedure helps us seal the sinus tract with high accuracy, resulting in minimal tissue damage, quicker healing, and a far lower chance of recurrence,” he said.

Laser Pilonidoplasty: A Breakthrough in Pilonidal Sinus Care

Laser Pilonidoplasty (LPP) uses a powerful, targeted laser fiber inserted directly into the sinus tract. The laser energy destroys infected tissue, sterilises the tract, and promotes natural healing without the need for wide surgical cuts. Because the procedure is minimally invasive, bleeding is significantly reduced, and postoperative pain remains minimal.

The clinic explains that the procedure typically lasts 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the complexity of the sinus. Patients can undergo the treatment under local, regional, or general anaesthesia, based on their comfort and the surgeon’s recommendation. Most patients are discharged within 24 hours and resume normal activities within a few days.

Why Laser Treatment Is Transforming Pilonidal Sinus Management

Thrissur Piles Clinic emphasises several advantages of choosing laser over conventional surgery:

1. Minimal Pain and Trauma: The selective laser energy targets only diseased tissue, leaving surrounding healthy skin intact.
2. Smaller Incisions, Minimal Scars: Unlike wide excisions, laser techniques require only tiny entry points, resulting in negligible scarring.
3. Lower Risk of Infection: Laser energy effectively seals tissues, reducing bacterial contamination and accelerating wound healing.
4. Faster Return to Work: Most patients can resume normal life within a week, making it ideal for students, professionals, and individuals with active lifestyles.
5. Reduced Recurrence: When performed by an expert, laser treatment significantly lowers the chances of the pilonidal sinus returning.

Dr Raviram stresses the importance of personalised evaluation. “There is no one-size-fits-all approach in proctology. Some patients benefit most from laser, while others may require additional techniques like VAAFT, flap reconstruction, or Kshar Sutra therapy. At Thrissur Piles Clinic, every patient receives a customised treatment plan tailored to the severity and nature of their sinus.”

Complete Care From Diagnosis to Recovery

The clinic provides a comprehensive care pathway starting with a detailed assessment, imaging if needed, minimally invasive treatment, and structured postoperative follow-ups. Patients are provided with clear wound-care instructions, lifestyle modifications, and early warning signs to watch for. The team also encourages prompt review in case of redness, persistent pain, swelling, or discharge — ensuring that complications are addressed early.

Cost and Accessibility

The clinic clarifies that the cost of laser treatment varies based on the size and complexity of the sinus, anaesthesia type, and associated procedures. Patients are encouraged to book a direct consultation to understand the most suitable treatment plan and cost breakdown.

About Thrissur Piles Clinic

Thrissur Piles Clinic is one of Kerala’s leading centres dedicated to the treatment of piles, fissures, fistula, pilonidal sinus, and other anorectal disorders. With an experienced team led by Dr Raviram S, the clinic offers a combination of advanced techniques—including laser treatments, endoscopic procedures, flap surgeries, and Ayurvedic Kshar Sutra therapy—to ensure safe, effective, and long-lasting results. The clinic is well-known for its ethical practice, modern equipment, personalised approach, and high patient satisfaction.

#StopThePeriodPain – Don’t take period pain lightly. It is a real medical issue.

New Delhi [India], November 3: In 2020, a single word changed how we looked at health forever: pandemic. COVID-19 became the defining moment of our generation — the first time most of us witnessed a global health crisis unfold in real time. We watched cities lock down, hospitals overflow, and humanity unite to fight an invisible threat. The world’s collective focus was on survival, and we learned how powerful awareness and action could be when everyone comes together for a cause.

But while we’ve been fighting visible pandemics like COVID-19 — and even tackling chronic diseases such as diabetes, hypertension, and heart ailments through national awareness drives — there’s another silent health crisis that has quietly affected millions of women for decades. One that rarely makes headlines, is barely discussed, and has never been treated like the public health issue it truly is.

That crisis is Dysmenorrhea, or what most people simply call period pain.

“Dysmenorrhea, or period pain, affects an estimated 80% of Indian girls and women,”

explains Dr Prabhu Kasture, Director, Medical Services & Pharmacovigilance at Blue Cross Laboratories.

“It is, without a doubt, India’s biggest gynaecological problem. Yet, there have been no national campaigns, no government programs, no large-scale education drives to address it. Because somewhere along the way, menstrual pain stopped being viewed as a health issue. It was normalized — brushed aside with a single dismissive line: ‘It’s just part of being a woman.’”

This cultural conditioning is what the “Stop The Period Pain” campaign aims to change.

We’ve seen campaigns that have made great strides in menstrual hygiene awareness — promoting the use of sanitary napkins and improving access to basic hygiene products.

But #StopThePeriodPain is a step beyond hygiene. It’s the first campaign in India that directly addresses the root cause — the pain itself.

Ashish Shirsat, Sr. Executive Director, Blue Cross Laboratories, explains it perfectly:

“‘Period pain to sabko hota hai’ — this one sentence has normalized menstrual pain for generations. It has placed every kind of pain, from mild discomfort to debilitating cramps, into one bucket. But not all pain is normal. Some of it signals deeper health issues — and ignoring it can have lifelong consequences.”

This normalization has created a dangerous silence around menstrual health.

Girls miss school. Women skip work. Yet most accept this suffering as something they “just have to deal with.”

Pachanan Routray, Sr. Marketing Director, Blue Cross Laboratories, adds:

“We have massive gynaecological problems in India — 80% of girls experience dysmenorrhea. Many of them live with conditions like endometriosis, adenomyosis, or uterine fibroids — all forms of secondary dysmenorrhea — but they go undiagnosed for years because we’ve been taught that period pain is normal. That mindset must change.”

That’s the heart of the message — excessive period pain is not normal.
As the campaign says: “Isko halke mein mat lo.”

The Stop The Period Pain website goes beyond just tools. It’s a complete ecosystem for education and empowerment — featuring personal stories, expert advice, FAQs, and science-backed insights into period pain. It acts as a single, comprehensive guide for girls and women who’ve long suffered in silence, unsure where to turn or what their pain really means.

The message is simple yet powerful: This is not a small problem. Period pain — or dysmenorrhea — is a silent pandemic that affects millions of Indian women and girls, disrupting their education, careers, and quality of life.

Just as the world came together to fight COVID-19, it’s time to unite against this invisible yet deeply personal health crisis — through awareness, education, and empathy.

“Stop The Period Pain” is more than a campaign.
It’s a movement to change how India talks about women’s health — one conversation, one video, one click at a time.

New Delhi [India], October 18: In an era where intelligent systems are reshaping everything from how we shop to how we heal, KRIGAT steps in as a game-changing innovation at the intersection of health, AI, and human potential. Developed by AltrixLabs, a cross-continental collaboration between British and Indian innovators, KRIGAT is not just another health tech product. It’s an entirely new approach to understanding, supporting, and optimising the way we move.

From Vision to Reality – The AltrixLabs Story

AltrixLabs was born from a unique blend of athletic grit, business intelligence, and deep tech expertise. In the UK, Parantha Narendran, a veteran in telecom and tech strategy, and Allyn Condon, a decorated Olympian and advocate for sports science, had already made their mark as co-founders of the renowned Luxe Fitness gym chain. In India, Aditya Chhabra—a technologist and entrepreneur with a distinguished background in biomechanics, health tech, and published research on human body repositioning and personalization, alongside Priyanshi Tater, a human-centred design expert, had built CreateBytes, a pioneering AI-first design and engineering studio.

Drawn together by a shared vision to make elite performance and rehabilitation tools accessible to everyone, the four founders merged their worlds—combining cutting-edge AI systems, sports science expertise, and proven business leadership—to create a platform that’s redefining human performance and health innovation.

Introducing KRIGAT – An AI That Moves With You

KRIGAT, derived from the Sanskrit words Kriya (action) and Gati (motion), is more than a product. It’s a powerful AI platform that reads human motion through any standard camera, offering real-time feedback and actionable insights with no wearables, sensors, or friction.

Fully browser-based and device-agnostic, KRIGAT turns a laptop or smartphone into a digital physio or performance coach. It’s movement intelligence at your fingertips, accessible, scalable, and precise.

Two Core Modules:

KRIGAT Physio uses computer vision to analyse joint movement, posture, and alignment during physiotherapy routines. It offers clinically validated programs, tracks recovery progress, and provides real-time corrections via voice or text, making rehab truly interactive.

KRIGAT PowerSports is tailored for athletes and coaches. It tracks performance metrics like power output, jump height, bar path, and limb symmetry giving elite-level feedback during workouts without the need for expensive hardware.

Why It Matters – The Big Picture

What sets KRIGAT apart is its deep commitment to access and impact. India, despite its fitness boom, faces a chronic shortage of qualified physiotherapists and movement specialists especially outside tier-one cities. KRIGAT bridges this gap by putting world-class diagnostics and guidance within reach, whether you’re in a metro clinic or a rural home.

It’s already gaining traction in several sectors:

• Gyms and Fitness Chains are using it to screen for injury risks and improve member outcomes.

• Clinics and Hospitals are digitising their physiotherapy practices, enabling remote monitoring.

• Sports Academies are giving young athletes tools previously reserved for elite professionals.

• Corporates are embedding it in wellness programmes to reduce workplace injuries.

• Seniors and Recovering Patients are benefiting from structured, at-home rehabilitation support.

And because KRIGAT requires no app installation or hardware, it scales effortlessly from a single physiotherapist’s practice to national healthcare deployments.

Built for Scale, Designed for People

KRIGAT is a masterclass in human-centred AI. It leverages cutting-edge computer vision while maintaining an intuitive and inclusive experience. Whether you’re a first-time gym-goer or an Olympic coach, the interface is simple, the insights clear, and the outcomes measurable.

And it’s only just beginning.

The team at AltrixLabs is already building out the next phase of the product:

• Native mobile apps for more seamless usage

• Augmented reality overlays for deeper training support

• Multilingual voice assistants to expand reach across India

• Wearable integrations to capture richer biometric data

“KRIGAT is our answer to making world-class movement health accessible for everyone, whether you’re a professional athlete or someone just beginning your fitness journey,” shares Priyanshi Tater.

“After years competing at the highest level, I know firsthand the power of real-time feedback. With KRIGAT, that technology is finally in everyone’s hands,” says Aditya Chhabra.

Priyanshi added, “We’re not just building a product; we’re creating a movement, a future where everyone moves better, recovers faster, and lives stronger.”

In conclusion, KRIGAT marks a turning point in how we think about recovery, performance, and well-being. It turns motion into intelligence and feedback into empowerment. For a world that’s increasingly sedentary and injury-prone, it offers a proactive, data-driven path to better movement health.

With its launch, AltrixLabs is making a bold statement: that intelligent healthcare isn’t a luxury, it’s a necessity, and it should be as accessible as it is advanced.

Nair is a highly experienced Gastroenterologist and one of the Best GI Surgeons in Thrissur with over 16 years of expertise in surgical gastroenterology, advanced laparoscopy, and minimally invasive procedures.

Book your appointment today and take the first step toward a healthier, hernia-free life.

When to Consult a Hernia Surgeon

If you notice any of the following symptoms, it is important to consult Dr. Arun S. Nair for timely treatment:

1. A noticeable lump or bulge in the abdomen or groin.
2. Pain or discomfort while lifting, coughing, or bending.
3. Swelling near the belly button or surgical scar.
4. Nausea, vomiting, or severe abdominal pain (possible complication).

Delaying treatment can increase risks and make surgery more complex.

Types of Hernias Treated:

Dr. Arun S. Nair, a leading Hernia Surgeon in Thrissur, explains the different types of hernia commonly seen in patients. Each type requires careful evaluation and a personalized treatment plan for the best outcome.

1. Inguinal Hernia – The most common type occurs in the groin area, especially in men.
2. Femoral Hernia – More common in women, appears in the upper thigh near the groin.
3. Umbilical Hernia – Develops near the belly button, often in newborns, obese adults, or women with a history of pregnancy.
4. Incisional Hernia – Appears at the site of a previous surgical scar, usually after abdominal surgery.
5. Hiatal Hernia – Happens when part of the stomach pushes into the chest cavity through the diaphragm, leading to acid reflux or GERD-like symptoms.
6. Recurrent Hernia – Occurs when a hernia comes back after previous surgery. It often needs advanced laparoscopic or robotic repair.
7. Complex Hernia – Large, multiple, or complicated hernias that may involve abdominal wall reconstruction and specialised surgical techniques.
8. Pain after Hernia Repair – Some patients experience persistent or chronic pain after previous hernia surgery. This condition requires expert evaluation and treatment to improve quality of life.

Why Timely Hernia Treatment is Important

While some patients ignore hernia symptoms, believing they will resolve on their own, the truth is that hernias do not heal without surgery. Instead, they may worsen over time and lead to severe complications such as:

1. Strangulated Hernia – Blood supply to the trapped tissue is cut off, which can be life-threatening.
2. Obstruction – Part of the intestine may become blocked, leading to severe pain and digestive issues.
3. Chronic Pain and Discomfort – Daily activities may be restricted due to persistent pain and swelling.

Seeking expert surgical care at the right time is the key to preventing these complications.

Hyderabad (Telangana) [India], September 25:  Fertility preservation is no longer a subject confined to medical textbooks and oncology wards—it is now part of mainstream conversations among India’s urban, career-driven women. One procedure leading this change is egg freezing, and guiding this shift with expertise and compassion is Dr S. Vyjayanthi, Director of MotherToBe Fertility Centre and Head of the Fertility Department at KIMS Hospitals, Secunderabad.

The Changing Face of Fertility Choices

Traditionally, fertility treatments were sought only when couples encountered challenges conceiving. But today, women in their late 20s and early 30s are taking a proactive step by choosing to freeze their eggs. According to Dr Vyjayanthi, this marks a new era in reproductive health.

“Egg freezing is not only for women undergoing cancer treatment or medical conditions that threaten fertility,” she explains. “We are seeing a growing number of professionals—lawyers, IT specialists, entrepreneurs—choosing social egg freezing to protect their fertility while pursuing their careers and personal goals.”

Why Timing Matters

Dr Vyjayanthi stresses that age remains the single most critical factor in fertility. Women are born with a limited number of eggs, and both the quality and quantity decline over time.

“Freezing eggs at a younger age—ideally before 35—significantly increases the chances of achieving a successful pregnancy later in life,” she says. “It’s about empowering women to plan motherhood on their terms, without feeling rushed by their biological clock.”

The Science Behind Egg Freezing

The procedure itself is a blend of science and precision. It begins with controlled ovarian stimulation, followed by egg retrieval. These eggs are then preserved through vitrification, a rapid freezing method that prevents ice crystal formation and maintains egg quality.

When the woman is ready for pregnancy, the eggs can be thawed, fertilised through IVF, and transferred as embryos. “The technology is highly advanced and safe,” Dr Vyjayanthi reassures. “We have seen remarkable results for patients who return years later to use their frozen eggs.”

Emotional Freedom and Empowerment

Beyond the science, Dr. Vyjayanthi highlights the psychological benefits. For many women, egg freezing brings a sense of control and peace of mind.

“It gives women breathing space,” she notes. “They can focus on their education, career, or finding the right life partner, without the constant anxiety of running out of time. For patients, this relief itself is life-changing.”

Rising Awareness in India

Urban centers like Hyderabad, Bengaluru, and Mumbai are witnessing an uptick in women seeking consultations on egg freezing. Alongside career-oriented women, patients with conditions like premature ovarian insufficiency, endometriosis, or those undergoing cancer therapies are also considering fertility preservation.

At MotherToBe Fertility Centre, the demand has steadily grown. “Our approach is to provide advanced treatment backed by ethical practices and thorough counselling,” Dr Vyjayanthi emphasises. “Every woman deserves to make an informed choice about her fertility.”

Looking Ahead: A New Chapter in Reproductive Health

Experts believe that fertility preservation will play a transformative role in reproductive planning in India over the coming decade. As awareness spreads and societal attitudes shift, egg freezing is likely to become as normalized as other preventive healthcare measures.

For Dr. Vyjayanthi, the mission is clear: “Fertility preservation is not about delaying motherhood indefinitely. It’s about giving women the right to choose—on their terms, with the best chances possible. That, to me, is the true revolution in fertility care.”

The occasion celebrated NEXA’s long-standing association with the platform, its pioneering initiatives such as NEXA Spotlight, and the announcement of an upcoming collaboration with designer duo Shantnu & Nikhil.

Spotlight Alumni Showcase: 10 Seasons of Innovation

One of the key highlights of the evening was a special showcase by Spotlight alumni, celebrating 10 seasons of the pioneering initiative by NEXA and Lakmē Fashion Week in partnership with FDCI.

Since its inception, NEXA Presents Spotlight has provided emerging designers with a platform to showcase their creativity and innovation.

What began as a unique initiative has now evolved into one of the most respected launchpads for young designers in the country, offering mentorship, exposure, and an unmatched showcase opportunity.

Shantnu & Nikhil Present Velora

Continuing the evening’s focus on design and innovation, Shantnu & Nikhil unveiled a preview of Velora, the designers’ first-ever all-womenswear showcase in India.

Drawing inspiration from the Limited Edition Phantom Blaq by Grand Vitara, they incorporated its enigmatic Phantom Black and rose-gold accents, creating a seamless synergy between automotive innovation and contemporary design.

Inspired by the cinematic allure of the 1930s, an era that immortalised the red-carpet siren, the collection reimagines that spirit through the house codes of structure, drapery, and defiance.

Leadership Perspectives

Partho Banerjee, Senior Executive Officer, Marketing and Sales, Maruti Suzuki India Limited, said:
“NEXA has always stood for innovation, sophistication, and experiences that go beyond mobility. Over the last 10 years, our commitment to fashion and design has shaped NEXA into a cultural brand. This collaboration with Shantnu & Nikhil, marking our third partnership together, reflects our shared vision of modernity and style, brought alive through their exquisite collection inspired by the Phantom Blaq.”

Jaspreet Chandok, Group Vice President, Reliance Brands, added:
“Our association with NEXA over the years has played a key role in bringing new talent to the forefront of Indian fashion. Together, we’ve created experiences that inspire the industry and resonate with audiences far beyond the runway, ensuring that creativity, innovation, and cultural dialogue remain at the heart of every edition of Lakmē Fashion Week x FDCI.”

Sunil Sethi, Chairman, Fashion Design Council of India, shared:
“Celebrating 10 years of NEXA is a reminder of how creativity, design and innovation can inspire new possibilities. Since 2016, NEXA has partnered with FDCI bringing fashion and culture to the forefront. As we mark the tenth season of ‘NEXA Presents Spotlight’, this milestone reflects NEXA’s strong corporate partnership and its commitment to shaping the future of Indian fashion through meaningful industry collaborations.”

Looking Ahead

With Lakmē Fashion Week x FDCI set to return to Delhi this October, NEXA continues its journey of shaping conversations at the crossroads of fashion, innovation, and culture.

Chennai (Tamil Nadu) [India], September 18: Apollo Hospitals commemorated its 42^nd anniversary, having touched over 200 million lives, earned trust across 185 nations and reached over 19000 pincodes across India. As Apollo opened India’s first corporate hospital in 1983, it sparked a healthcare revolution, having completed over 51 lakh surgeries and 27000 organ transplants over the four decades. Apollo has also trained over 11 lakh professionals, significantly augmenting the skilled healthcare human capital in the country.

Highlights: 

• 1 million surgeries | 27,000+ organ transplants | 22,000+ robotic surgeries
• 3 million preventive screenings | 20 million diagnostic tests | 11 lakh professionals trained
• 40 million Indians served through Apollo 24|7 digital health
• 9 million vulnerable lives touched through Apollo Foundation’s community programs

By creating trust in India’s healthcare quality, Apollo has made India a global destination for care, reversing the earlier trend of outbound patients. Dr Prathap C. Reddy, Chairman, Apollo Hospitals Group, said, “When Apollo began in 1983, it was not just the birth of a hospital, but the birth of a movement. Over four decades, that movement has grown into a force that has touched 200 million lives, built trust across 185 nations, and redefined what is possible in healthcare. Our vision has always been to make world-class care accessible and future-ready. As India rises on the global stage, Apollo will remain a driving force, shaping healthier societies, advancing medical frontiers, and ensuring that families everywhere can look to the future with hope, health, and happiness.”

Apollo’s journey is deeply interwoven with India’s rising longevity and health standards. By reducing dependency on foreign care, raising clinical benchmarks across sectors, and expanding access to millions, Apollo has directly contributed to longer lives, stronger survival rates, and India’s reputation as a trusted global healthcare destination.

Dr. Preetha Reddy, Executive Vice Chairperson, said, “The strength of a nation lies in the health of its people. India’s doctors, nurses, and caregivers are the silent architects of progress. At Apollo, we have built not just hospitals, but human capital. When we invest in people, we invest in the dignity, resilience, and future of our nation.”

Dr. Suneeta Reddy, Managing Director, Apollo Hospitals Group, added, “Our growth has always been purposeful, with the patient at the core. From preventive care to advanced treatments, from digital health to research, every expansion has been built on trust, access, and impact. As India stands at the cusp of becoming a $5 trillion economy, healthcare must be its strongest foundation. Apollo’s mission is to ensure that quality care reaches in every corner of this country of 1.4 billion.”

Apollo has consistently changed the face of medicine in India and beyond with its pioneering firsts, such as South Asia’s first Proton Cancer Centre, India’s first AI-Precision Oncology Centre, and the region’s first CyberKnife® Robotic Radiosurgery system. Today, Apollo leads with 28 advanced robotic platforms, AI-powered cardiovascular risk prediction, and augmented reality–assisted surgeries, making tomorrow’s medicine available today.

Dr Sangita Reddy, Joint Managing Director – Apollo Hospitals, added, “The future of healthcare will be borderless, personalised, and powered by exponential technologies. At Apollo, we are integrating AI, robotics, and digital platforms to not just treat disease, but to predict and prevent it. Imagine a world where every Indian has a digital health twin, where interventions are precise, affordable, and accessible in real time; that is the future we are building.”

Through Apollo 24|7, over 40 million Indians access teleconsultations, diagnostics, and pharmacy services anytime, anywhere. Beyond hospitals, Apollo Foundation’s Billion Hearts Beating and Total Health programs have reached 1.9 million vulnerable lives, reaffirming Apollo’s belief that healthcare is a right, not a privilege

Visakhapatnam (Andhra Pradesh) [India], September 17: Filmmaker Anurag Kashyap, who recently turned 53, has opened up about his remarkable health transformation – and the central role Pema Wellness Retreat in Visakhapatnam played in it. After surviving a heart attack, struggling with asthma, gaining weight, and feeling like he had completely lost himself, Kashyap says he found healing and the path to return to his healthiest self at Pema.

“I had heart attacks, asthma, I was on steroids, and I had completely lost myself. I tried de-addiction programs and other places, but nothing helped until Pema. For the first time, I understood what had really happened to my body and why stress had taken such a toll. Dr. Murthy and the team explained it to me so clearly and put me on a plan that changed everything,” he recalled.

At Pema, doctors designed a program that worked around his specific needs, including their Cardiac Health Reset & Metabolic Balance programme. One of the most challenging shifts was a carefully monitored dietary reset, which Kashyap says transformed his body’s rhythm. By the fourth day, his cravings disappeared, and the results were undeniable: he has since lost 27 kilos. Alongside yoga, pranayama, and daily therapies, he also learned how to step back from constant stress and give himself the time he had long denied.

Perched on a hilltop surrounded by the sea and Eastern Ghats, Pema is a sanctuary where healing feels natural. Its difference lies not just in the location but in its philosophy, combining naturopathy, therapeutic nutrition, and ancient yogic practices with modern longevity research. Every programme is tailored daily, with doctor consultations at the heart of the experience, offering specialised plans for individual health needs and wellness goals.

“Most wellness places feel like a prison; you’re cut off and isolated. Pema is different. The location is stunning, the therapies are organic, and the daily doctor consultations make it deeply personal. You come here, shut the world out, and yet feel completely free,” Kashyap said.

For him, the transformation went beyond numbers on a scale. It became about reclaiming calm, balance, and clarity. As he put it simply, “I just love Pema. I want to tell people to come here.”

Whether your goal is to shed excess weight, sculpt lean muscles, or simply feel more energized throughout the day, nutrition plays a critical role in determining your success. Traditionally, animal protein has been considered the “gold standard” for building muscle and supporting weight management. However, more and more people are turning to plant-based protein sources, not only for ethical and environmental reasons but also for their unique health benefits.

Plant protein is no longer seen as an inferior option; research now highlights its powerful role in weight control, muscle development, and overall well-being. Derived from sources such as legumes, seeds, grains, and protein powders, plant protein provides essential amino acids, fiber, and micronutrients that enhance satiety, support digestion, and fuel the body effectively. Beyond the physical benefits, plant protein also contributes to reduced risk of chronic disease and promotes a cleaner, more sustainable approach to nutrition.

Weight Loss Benefits of Plant Protein

Keeps You Fuller for Longer

One of the biggest challenges when trying to lose weight is dealing with hunger pangs and cravings. Plant proteins are often rich in dietary fiber, which slows digestion and helps you stay fuller for longer. For example, lentils, chickpeas, and quinoa not only provide protein but also deliver fiber that regulates blood sugar levels, preventing sudden spikes and crashes that often trigger overeating. Feeling satisfied after meals reduces the temptation to snack unnecessarily, making it easier to stick to a calorie deficit.

Boosts Metabolism Through the Thermic Effect of Food

Protein—whether from plants or animals—requires more energy for digestion compared to carbohydrates or fats. This is called the thermic effect of food (TEF). Since your body burns more calories to process protein, adding more plant protein to your meals helps naturally boost metabolism. Over time, this additional calorie expenditure can support fat loss while preserving lean mass.

Supports Healthy Digestion and Gut Health

Unlike many animal proteins, plant-based sources often come packed with prebiotic fiber that feeds healthy gut bacteria. A balanced gut microbiome has been linked to better metabolism, reduced fat storage, and more efficient nutrient absorption. This means that not only do plant proteins help with weight loss directly, but they also optimize your digestive system to work in your favor.

Aids Long-Term Weight Management

Unlike restrictive crash diets that often lead to rebound weight gain, plant protein supports sustainable weight loss. It reduces inflammation, lowers cholesterol, and improves overall metabolic health, all of which play a role in maintaining a healthy weight long-term.

Muscle Gain with Plant Protein

Provides Adequate Protein for Muscle Growth

To build muscle effectively, it’s essential to consume enough protein daily. Fitness experts recommend around 1.2–1.6 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight. With the right combinations of plant-based foods—such as beans with rice or pea protein powder—you can easily meet these targets. Plant protein supplies the necessary amino acids that fuel muscle repair and promote hypertrophy after strength training.

Complete Amino Acid Profiles with the Right Combinations

While some plant sources may be lower in certain amino acids like lysine or methionine, combining different sources ensures a complete profile. For instance, pairing rice (low in lysine but high in methionine) with beans (low in methionine but high in lysine) creates a well-rounded amino acid supply. Today, many plant-based protein powders are specially formulated to provide complete amino acid profiles, including leucine, which is critical for triggering muscle protein synthesis.

Backed by Research

Recent studies confirm that when consumed in adequate amounts, plant proteins can be just as effective as animal proteins in promoting muscle growth. With regular resistance training, athletes using pea or soy protein powders have experienced similar gains in lean muscle mass compared to those consuming whey protein. This makes plant protein a valid and powerful alternative for bodybuilders and fitness enthusiasts alike.

Sustained Energy and Recovery

Plant protein powder often digests more slowly than animal proteins, offering a steady release of amino acids over time. This can be especially beneficial for post-workout recovery, where the body needs a constant supply of nutrients to repair muscle tissue and reduce soreness. Additionally, the antioxidants found in many plant foods help combat exercise-induced inflammation, further aiding recovery and performance.

Best Sources of Protein

If you’re looking to boost your protein intake from plants, here are some of the top choices:

• Legumes – Lentils, chickpeas, and black beans are affordable, protein-rich, and versatile in cooking.
• Seeds – Hemp, pumpkin, chia, and flax seeds provide protein, omega-3s, and fiber, making them nutrient-dense options.
• Soy Products – Tofu, tempeh, and edamame are complete protein sources and excellent meat substitutes.
• Quinoa – One of the few plant foods that naturally contains all essential amino acids.
• Pea Protein Powder – Highly digestible and rich in branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs), making it an excellent choice for athletes.
• Nut Butters – Almond or peanut butter adds both protein and healthy fats to meals and snacks.

Practical Tips for Adding More Protein

1. Plan Balanced Meals – Combine grains and legumes for a full amino acid profile.
2. Snack Smart – Replace chips or cookies with roasted chickpeas, hummus with veggies, or a handful of seeds.
3. Upgrade Your Smoothies – Add a scoop of plant-based protein powder, nut butter, or chia seeds to your shakes.
4. Experiment with Plant-Based Recipes – Try lentil curries, bean burgers, or quinoa salads to keep meals exciting.
5. Prioritize Post-Workout Nutrition – A protein-rich smoothie or tofu stir-fry after exercise can maximize recovery and muscle growth.

Summary

Plant protein is not just for vegans or vegetarians—it’s for anyone who wants to support weight loss, improve muscle strength, and adopt a healthier lifestyle. From enhancing satiety and boosting metabolism to fueling muscle growth and recovery, plant-based proteins deliver results that rival traditional animal proteins. With the right combinations and quality sources, they can provide all the essential nutrients your body needs to thrive.

Surat (Gujarat) [India], August 25 : Ganesh Chaturthi is more than a festival of devotion-it’s a celebration of new beginnings, creativity, and prosperity. As homes across India light up with festivities and fashion comes alive with vibrant ensembles, one brand has been redefining how fabrics are chosen, styled, and cherished-FABONIQUE.

Founded by Nency Ghori, with over 40 years of legacy in her family’s textile business, Fabonique has emerged as a trusted name for women, boutique owners, fashion designers, and tailors who seek premium fabrics without the burden of bulk buying. In just one year, the brand has achieved remarkable growth, driven by its focus on material quality, fair pricing, and always-trending designs.

A Festival of Fabrics and Freshness

Just as Ganesh Chaturthi welcomes innovation in rituals with deep respect for tradition, Fabonique brings the same balance to the fabric world.

These collections reflect not just fashion trends but the festive spirit that defines occasions like Ganesh Chaturthi.

Why FABONIQUE Stands Apart

The fabric industry often limits smaller creators with high MOQs, lack of trendy options, and inconsistent quality. Fabonique was born to solve this very problem. With no minimum order quantity (MOQ) and fabrics starting from just 1 meter, the brand empowers every buyer-whether they’re testing a design or producing an entire collection.

Here’s what makes Fabonique the go-to choice this festive season:

•  Affordable: Prices starting from ₹150 per meter

Fabrics that Celebrate Festivity

Ganesh Chaturthi is a time when families dress in their best, and designers search for fabrics that not only look good but also feel festive. Fabonique’s lineup offers exactly that:

• Embroidered Fabrics – intricate detailing for bridal and festive outfits
• Printed & Pattern-Based Fabrics – from contemporary motifs to cultural patterns
• Trend-Based Fabrics – keeping creators ahead of the fashion curve
• Occasion-Based Fabrics – carefully selected for weddings, festivals, parties, and daywear

Whether it’s a lehenga, saree, dupatta, or gown, Fabonique ensures the material resonates with both tradition and trend.

From One Meter to Many Dreams

For Nency Ghori, Fabonique is more than a business-it’s a movement to support women and creators. By offering flexibility, trust, and inspiration, Fabonique has become a partner in growth for boutique owners, tailors, and upcoming designers.

This Ganesh Chaturthi, as we pray for new beginnings, Fabonique continues to stand with creators who want to start small, grow consistently, and craft something extraordinary.

Celebrate with Fabonique

As Lord Ganesha is welcomed with devotion and grandeur, let your festive collection reflect the same spirit. With Fabonique’s fabrics-crafted for comfort, designed for trends, and priced for growth-you don’t just buy fabric, you buy possibility.

A first trip to Europe can be a thrilling experience, but planning should be thorough when it comes to navigating Schengen visa procedures. The Schengen area consists of 29 European countries that allow you to travel freely across borders with a single visa.

However, to enjoy this experience, you need to understand the application process and gather the right documents like Schengen travel insurance to meet the key requirements.

From the benefits of having a Schengen visa to step-by-step application guidance and common mistakes to avoid, this guide covers everything a first-time traveller should know. Keep reading for a detailed insight.

What are the Benefits of a Schengen Visa?

A Schengen visa offers a wide range of advantages for travellers, such as:

1.Access to 29 European Countries

With a single visa, you can travel freely across 29 Schengen areas without needing multiple visas. This makes multi-country trips across Europe smooth and hassle-free.

2.Easy Visa Process

Instead of applying for separate visas for each destination, the Schengen visa allows access to multiple countries through a single application—saving time, money, and paperwork.

3.Borderless Travel Experience

Once you enter the Schengen zone, you can move across countries without border checks, making it easy to explore iconic cities, attend events, or take weekend getaways.

4.Affordable, Quality Education and Travel

Europe is home to world-class institutions and attractive travel options, often at lower costs compared to other regions. The Schengen visa helps unlock these experiences without visa restrictions.

5.Increased Access to Scholarships and Funding

If you are eligible for grants or scholarships in Europe, having a Schengen visa can help you apply to multiple institutions across different countries more easily.

How to Apply for a Schengen Visa from India?

The following steps are for a Schengen visa from India:

Step 1: Choose Your Main Destination and Embassy

Select the country you will visit—either where you will stay the longest or enter first. Apply through its consulate in India, or through the consulate representing it if no direct mission is available.

Step 2: Confirm the Visa Type

Go to the official embassy website or VFS Global to check if a visa is required and to confirm the correct visa type based on your travel purpose.

Step 3: Complete the Application Form

Fill out the Schengen visa application online, selecting the right category—tourism, business, study, etc. Print the completed form for submission.

Step 4: Schedule Your Appointment

Book your appointment through VFS Global or the embassy portal. This is when you will submit documents and complete your biometric enrolment.

Step 5: Attend the Visa Appointment

On the appointment day, visit the application centre to hand in your documents, provide biometric data, and pay the visa fee. After submission, your application will be reviewed.

What are the Documents Required for Applying for a Schengen Visa?

When applying for a Schengen visa, make sure you gather the following essential documents:

• A fully completed and signed visa application form.
• Two recent colour photographs (35×45 mm), showing 70–80% of your face clearly.
• A valid passport with at least two blank pages, which should remain valid for at least three months beyond your intended return date. If you have an old, expired, or cancelled passport, bring that as well.
• Confirmed bookings for flights and accommodation during your stay.
• Travel insurance that meets Schengen requirements, with a minimum medical cover of €30,000  (₹30,37,440).
• Bank statements from the past six months to prove that you have adequate funds to cover your expenses during the trip.
• A cover letter outlining the reason for your visit and your travel plans.
• Proof of payment for the applicable visa fee.

Is it Compulsory for Schengen Travellers to Carry Travel Insurance?

Yes, carrying valid travel insurance is mandatory when applying for a Schengen visa. Travellers applying for a single or double-entry visa must provide proof of sufficient travel insurance that covers emergency medical treatment, hospital care, and repatriation.

The policy must offer minimum coverage of €30,000 and remain valid across all Schengen countries for the full duration of the visit. For those applying for a multiple-entry Schengen visa, proof of travel insurance is required at the time of application—specifically for the first intended trip.

Applicants must also confirm in writing, via the application form, that they will maintain valid insurance for any future visits.

What Mistakes to Avoid as a First-Time Schengen Traveller?

Applying for a Schengen visa can be a smooth process if handled correctly. Here are the mistakes you must avoid:

1.Submitting an Incorrect Application

Errors or omissions in the application form are one of the leading causes of rejection. Inaccurate details, unanswered questions, or information that does not match supporting documents raise doubts. Always fill out the form truthfully, follow the instructions, and double-check before submitting.

2.Not Providing Adequate Financial Proof

Applicants must show they have sufficient funds to cover their trip. Failure to submit recent bank statements, salary slips, or sponsorship letters can result in denial. Ensure your documents reflect the minimum daily financial requirement based on your itinerary.

3.Missing a Detailed Travel Plan

A vague itinerary can weaken your application. Provide confirmed flight bookings, hotel reservations, and a day-by-day travel plan. A clear schedule demonstrates your purpose and intent to return home.

4.Lack of Valid Travel Insurance

Your Schengen travel insurance must meet the €30,000 coverage requirement and provide coverage for medical emergencies and repatriation. Submitting expired or non-compliant insurance can lead to rejection. Make sure your travel insurance policy is valid for the entire duration.

5.Inadequate Proof of Accommodation

Unverifiable or fake bookings raise red flags. Submit genuine, preferably refundable hotel reservations with complete details, including name, address, contact information, and stay dates.

6.Unclear Purpose of Visit

A poorly defined reason for travel, or documents that do not support your stated purpose, may result in refusal. Include a detailed cover letter, supporting documents (like an invitation or event itinerary), and ensure everything aligns with your stated reason for visiting.

7.Missing or Outdated Supporting Documents

Submitting incomplete sets of documents can cause delays or outright rejection. Create a checklist and ensure everything is up to date and in line with embassy requirements.

8.Passport Not Meeting Requirements

If your passport is expired, damaged, or lacks two blank pages, your application will likely be rejected. Your passport should be valid for a minimum of three months after your intended departure from the Schengen zone.

9.Applying to the Wrong Embassy

You are required to submit your visa application to the embassy or consulate of the country where you intend to spend the majority of your stay. Misapplying can lead to immediate refusal.

10. Ignoring Visa Processing Time

One frequent error is delaying the visa application until the last moment. Processing may take several weeks. Apply at least 3 to 6 weeks before your travel date to avoid delays and allow for any additional documentation requests.

Travelling to the Schengen area for the first time can be a smooth experience if you plan ahead, submit accurate documents, and follow the visa process carefully. One of the most important requirements is valid Schengen travel insurance, which supports your visa application and safeguards you in case of medical emergencies. With the right preparation, you will be ready to explore Europe in peace of mind.

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India] : Ishaara, a restaurant known for its authentic Indian cuisine, brings back the much-loved Undivided Punjab pop-up menu to Mumbai.  After winning hearts in Pune, Bangalore, Lucknow, and Ahmedabad, this special menu, a tribute to the rich, pre-partition food traditions of Punjab,  makes its final stop at Ishaara, Palladium Mall, starting 16th July 2025.

Curated by Chef Sherry Mehta and inspired by a candid conversation with Bellona Hospitality’s MD, Prashant Issar, the menu was born from a shared nostalgia. As they reminisced about their Punjabi roots, they realized how many traditional dishes had faded from memory. This sparked the idea to revive those long-lost recipes and celebrate the rich, cross-cultural heritage of Punjab.

The undivided Punjab menu brings to life forgotten flavours from the kitchens of pre-partition cities like Lahore, Amritsar, and Rawalpindi. The dishes include authentic curries, pulav, kebabs, and breads from before the tandoor as we know it. Influenced by Greek, Persian, Moorish, and British cuisines, these dishes tell stories of a Punjab that once knew no borders.

Prashant Issar, Managing Director of Bellona Hospitality, shared, “Undivided Punjab began as a deeply personal idea, a nostalgic conversation about lost recipes and fading culinary memories. To see it resonate with people across cities has been incredibly moving. This is the final showcase in Mumbai, an ode to the recipes long lost in time across the borders.” 

“This journey has been deeply personal. With every dish, I’ve tried to honour the forgotten kitchens and stories of a land that once thrived in unity. Undivided Punjab is more than a menu; it’s a memory, a legacy, and a tribute to generations before us. Bringing it to Mumbai one last time feels like coming home,” says Chef Sherry Mehta.

Back in Mumbai for its final run, this pop-up menu brings back forgotten recipes crafted with age-old techniques, slow-cooked in clay pots, seasoned with hand-ground spices, and made using local ingredients. Hosted at Ishaara, an award-winning restaurant recognized by the Times Food & Nightlife Awards and NDTV, this is a last chance to experience the flavours that have captured hearts across the country.

Hyderabad (Telangana) [India], June 28: Sanjay Shukla (S.J.), a Hyderabad-based writer and content professional, has released his debut book The Liar’s Guide: How to Lie Effectively and Get Away With It – a humorous and culturally rooted take on the everyday lies we all live with. The book is now available on Amazon, Flipkart, and Notion Press.

In an era where ‘truth’ is filtered and fibbing is almost social currency, The Liar’s Guide holds up a witty mirror to modern life. From harmless excuses like “I’m five minutes away” to classic workplace jhooth like “I’ve read the report,” the book explores how we navigate society with small, strategic untruths — often without even realizing it.

“This book is not a manual for deception — it’s an honest, funny look at the lies we tell to survive office deadlines, social pressure, and dinner with relatives. It’s a celebration of being human — flawed, funny, and occasionally full of it,” says author Sanjay Shukla.

The idea for the book took shape over countless chai breaks and storytelling sessions at old Irani cafés of Hyderabad — places known more for ‘phenkna’ (exaggeration) than fact. Drawing inspiration from everyday Indian settings, the book examines why we lie, how we lie, and what these fibs reveal about us.

A seasoned writer with a background in journalism, corporate storytelling, and satire, Sanjay blends sharp observation with desi humour, resulting in a read that is insightful, nostalgic, and laugh-out-loud funny.

Published by Notion Press, the book is available in paperback (₹199), hardbound (₹299), and eBook formats. Currently, the eBook is available exclusively on Amazon Kindle.

Terms like global warming, climate change, and greenhouse gases have become daily conversation keywords in recent decades. These linked problems are not far off dangers anymore; they are actual, current, and yearly progressively more serious. If we want to preserve our world for next generations, it is imperative that we grasp their causes, repercussions, and possible remedies.

What exactly is global warming? 

Global warming describes the long-run rise in Earth’s mean surface temperature brought on by the buildup of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. Although the temperature of the planets has naturally changed over millions of years, the present rate of warming is unparalleled and mostly caused by human actions, especially since the industrial revolution.

Understanding Global Warming, Climate Change, and Greenhouse Gases: A Call for Action

Burning fossil fuels like coal, oil, and natural gas produces carbon dioxide (CO), a prominent greenhouse gas. Other heat-trapping gases, including methane (CH) and nitrous oxide (NO), are released as a result of deforestation, industrial operations, and massive agriculture. These gases create a layer in the atmosphere that captures heat from the sun, therefore slowly raising the Earth’s temperature.

The Part Greenhouse Gases Play 

Naturally occurring in the atmosphere of Earth, greenhouse gases (GHGs) are vital for keeping a livable temperature. Our world would be too frigid to sustain life without them. Human activities have dramatically raised the concentrations of these gases, therefore exacerbating the greenhouse effect.

Among the main greenhouse gases are: 

Releases from fossil fuel burning, deforestation, and some industrial operations include Carbon Dioxide (CO). It is the main cause of worldwide warming. Emitted by cattle, rice paddies, garbage dumps, and the fossil fuel sector, methane (CH). It is over 25 times stronger than CO throughout 100 years. With nearly 300 times the warming power of CO, Nitrous Oxide (NO) is released from fertilizers and industrial operations. Fluorinated Gases: Artificial gases employed in industry and refrigeration. Although present in lesser amounts, they are very strong.

Climate Change: Looking Ahead Although global warming strictly refers to increasing temperatures, climate change covers the wider effects of that warming. This covers changes in patterns of weathermore severe natural catastrophes, sea levels that are increasing, and disturbances to ecosystems. Among the most frightening consequences of climate change include: More intense and frequent heatwaves, floods, and droughs Rising sea levels caused by melting glaciers and ice caps threaten coastal settlements. Higher wildfire frequency resulting from hotter, drier circumstances Ocean acidification, which damages coral reefs and marine variety Agriculture disruption impacting food security and water supply loss of biodiversity as species fight to fit into fast evolving surroundings

These developments have political stability as well as human health, financial systems, and nature impact. Particularly in underdeveloped nations, vulnerable groups are most at risk.

What Can We Accomplish? 

Though dire, the circumstance is not beyond hope. Addressing global warming and climate change calls for action from scientists, governments, companies, and people. These are some major steps that could change things:

1. Move to Renewable Energy 

Substituting coal, oil, and natural gas with clean energy sources like solar, wind, hydro, and geothermal will significantly lower greenhouse gas emissions.

2. Raise Efficiency 

Energy-efficient appliances, buildings, and automobiles help to lower emissions and energy use.

3. Safeguard woodlands and plant trees. 

Forests absorb carbon. Preserving current forests and participating in reforestation initiatives will assist remove atmospheric CO.

4. Transportation Sustainable 

Encouragement of public transportation, cycling, electric vehicles, and decreased air travel can substantially lower emissions from the transport industry.

5. Minimize, Reuse, Recycle. 

Less consumption and careful waste management lower landfill and production emissions.

6. Embrace Agriculture Friendly for the Climate 

Organic farming, less meat consumption (particularly beef), and better land use could help to lower methane and nitrous oxide emissions.

Dealing with climate change calls for worldwide collaboration. Agreements like the Paris Agreement seek to unite nations in lowering global temperature rise to well below 2C, with an ideal aim of 1.5C. Achieving these objectives, nevertheless, calls for more sincere commitments and quick action.

Hyderabad (Telangana) [India], June 3: Infertility affects millions of couples worldwide, and while in vitro fertilization (IVF) has provided hope, success rates have traditionally varied. Many couples face multiple IVF cycles before achieving a successful pregnancy. However, with the advancements in Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Preimplantation Genetic Testing (PGT), fertility treatments are becoming more precise, leading to higher IVF success rates and healthier pregnancies.

Dr. S. Vyjayanthi, a leading Fertility Specialist and Director of MotherToBe Fertility Centre, discusses how these groundbreaking innovations are transforming the field of reproductive medicine.

The Role of AI in IVF Treatments

Artificial Intelligence is revolutionizing IVF by improving accuracy in embryo selection, ovarian stimulation monitoring, and sperm analysis.

AI in Embryo Selection

One of the most critical steps in IVF is choosing the healthiest embryo for implantation. Traditionally, embryologists assess embryos visually under a microscope, relying on subjective judgment. AI enhances this process by:

• Analyzing thousands of embryo images to detect subtle differences that the human eye might miss

• Predicting embryo viability based on morphology, developmental patterns, and genetic health

• Reducing implantation failures by selecting the embryos with the highest potential for successful pregnancy

AI-powered systems use machine learning algorithms trained on large datasets of embryo images. These systems assign an embryo grading score, helping embryologists choose the embryo with the highest implantation potential.

AI in Ovarian Stimulation Monitoring

Before egg retrieval, ovarian stimulation is required to encourage the growth of multiple follicles. However, the right dosage of medications is crucial to prevent complications such as Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome (OHSS). AI plays a key role by:

• Monitoring hormone levels and follicular growth to predict the optimal trigger time

• Personalizing medication doses based on real-time patient data, ensuring safer and more effective ovarian stimulation

• Reducing medication side effects and improving egg retrieval outcomes

AI in Sperm Analysis

Male factor infertility contributes to nearly 50 percent of infertility cases. Traditional sperm analysis relies on manual assessments, but AI-powered sperm analysis offers:

• More precise evaluation of sperm motility, morphology, and concentration

• Enhanced selection of high-quality sperm for fertilization in IVF or ICSI (Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection)

• A better understanding of sperm DNA fragmentation, which can impact embryo development

AI-driven sperm selection allows fertility specialists to make informed decisions, maximizing the chances of conception.

Preimplantation Genetic Testing (PGT) in IVF

Preimplantation Genetic Testing (PGT) is transforming IVF success rates by ensuring genetically normal embryos are selected for transfer.

Types of PGT and Their Role in IVF

• PGT-A (Aneuploidy Screening): Screens embryos for chromosomal abnormalities, such as Down syndrome and Turner syndrome. This reduces the risk of implantation failure and miscarriage.

• PGT-M (Monogenic Disorders): Screens for inherited single-gene disorders, such as Cystic Fibrosis and Sickle Cell Anemia, helping parents with genetic conditions have healthy children.

• PGT-SR (Structural Rearrangements): Identifies chromosomal translocations that may cause recurrent miscarriages or failed implantation.

During IVF, a few cells from a developing embryo are biopsied and tested before implantation. This ensures that only genetically normal embryos are transferred, improving pregnancy outcomes and reducing the risk of miscarriage.

How AI and PGT Are Increasing IVF Success Rates

The combination of AI-powered embryo selection and Preimplantation Genetic Testing (PGT) has significantly improved IVF success rates by:

• Improving embryo quality and selection accuracy

• Reducing IVF failure rates and miscarriages

• Enhancing personalized treatment approaches

• Minimizing the risks of multiple pregnancies by supporting elective single embryo transfer (eSET)

According to Dr. Vyjayanthi, “The integration of AI in embryo selection and PGT has transformed the success rates of IVF, making treatments more precise, personalized, and patient-friendly. At MotherToBe, we combine the latest AI-driven tools with genetic testing to maximize success rates and offer couples a better chance of achieving parenthood.”

Who Can Benefit from AI and PGT in IVF?

These technologies are particularly beneficial for:

• Women over 35 years of age experiencing low ovarian reserve

• Couples with a history of multiple failed IVF cycles

• Women with recurrent pregnancy loss

• Couples with a known genetic disorder (e.g., Thalassemia, BRCA mutation)

• Male infertility cases requiring advanced sperm selection techniques

At MotherToBe Fertility Centre, AI-powered embryo selection and PGT are used to enhance precision and improve IVF success rates.

Future of AI and Genetic Testing in Fertility Treatments

The future of fertility treatments looks promising, with continuous advancements such as:

• AI-powered embryo culture monitoring using time-lapse imaging

• Advanced sperm sorting techniques using AI-driven microfluidic chips

• Non-invasive genetic screening (NIPGS), eliminating the need for embryo biopsy

With ongoing research and technological advancements, AI and genetic testing will continue to enhance reproductive medicine, offering new hope to couples worldwide.

The integration of Artificial Intelligence and Preimplantation Genetic Testing (PGT) is revolutionizing IVF treatments, improving success rates, and reducing genetic risks.

For those struggling with infertility, these cutting-edge advancements provide a path to parenthood with greater accuracy and confidence.

If you are considering IVF, consult with Dr. Vyjayanthi at MotherToBe Fertility Centre, a leader in AI-assisted fertility treatments and PGT-based embryo selection.

Hyderabad (Telangana) [India], June 3: Baby Lavanya, a 9-month-old from Guyana, South America, born with profound hearing loss, has successfully undergone a complex cochlear implant surgery at Apollo Hospitals, Hyderabad. The procedure was made possible through the efforts of the Society to Aid the Hearing Impaired (SAHI) and the Sri Satya Sai organization. Previously declined by multiple international centers due to a rare inner ear deformity, Lavanya’s case was accepted by Apollo’s expert ENT team, who carried out the surgery on May 17. The baby is now recovering well and beginning her journey toward hearing and speech.

In a remarkable story of resilience, hope, and international collaboration, Baby Lavanya, born on August 7, 2023, in Guyana, South America, has successfully undergone a complex cochlear implant surgery at Apollo Hospitals, Hyderabad. This milestone marks the beginning of her journey to hearing and speech, after being diagnosed with bilateral profound hearing loss said Mr. Tejesvi Rao, CEO, Apollo Hospitals, Telangana Region

Dr.E.C. Vinay Kumar HOD of ENT at Apollo Hospitals said that Born to parents Diveka Dhanraj and Satish Sakishnu of Indian origin, Baby Lavanya was unable to develop speech or respond to sounds due to her condition. Despite seeking help at multiple medical centers across Guyana, the country’s limited healthcare infrastructure could not support the specialized surgery required. Further complications arose when radiological scans revealed cochlear hypoplasia and an anomalous cochlea on the left side, causing multiple international centers to decline performing the operation.

Dr. K. Rambabu, Sr.Consultant ENT Surgeon Apollo Hospitals said the family explored options in neighboring Brazil, Venezuela, the United States, and Canada, but financial constraints made treatment in these countries unattainable. Appeals to charitable organizations in North America were unsuccessful, leaving the family desperate for a solution.

Their search for hope led them to the Sri Satya Sai organization in Guyana, which connected them to Apollo Hospitals, Hyderabad, and the Society to Aid the Hearing Impaired (SAHI) in India. Recognizing the complexity and urgency of the case, Apollo Hospitals took on the challenge through SAHI’s Hearing Impaired Girl Child Project.

The surgery was carried out successfully on May 17, 2025, by Apollo Hospitals’ distinguished ENT and cochlear implant team, led by Dr. E.C. Vinaya Kumar, Dr. K. Rambabu, and Dr. Jaswinder Singh Saluja, and supported by implantation audiologist Dr. I. Srikanth. With over 30 years of experience and more than 2,700 cochlear implant procedures, the team navigated the intricacies of Lavanya’s condition with expertise and compassion.

“We are delighted with Lavanya’s progress following her surgery,” said Dr. Vinaya Kumar. “Every child deserves the chance to hear and speak, and it’s our privilege to contribute to her journey.”

Baby Lavanya is now in recovery and demonstrating positive postoperative development. Her family, along with the entire care team, remains hopeful and excited to witness her take her first steps into the world of sound.

Pune (Maharashtra) [India], March 31: Transgender Day of Visibility (TDOV), observed annually on March 31, is a global movement recognizing the resilience, achievements, and contributions of the transgender community. It is a powerful reminder of the urgent need for equality, safety, and inclusion for trans individuals worldwide. TDOV serves as both a celebration and a call to action. This year, Pune witnessed an inspiring TDOV celebration, spearheaded by the Mist LGBTQ Foundation in collaboration with Panaaaa, TATVA Lab, and SAATHII.

A Vibrant Celebration in Pune Amidst these global challenges, the TDOV event in Pune stood as a beacon of hope. Activists, allies, and trans individuals came together for a day of powerful discussions, healthcare initiatives, and community bonding. Hosted at Stories Café in Lohegaon, the event featured welcome remarks, keynote speeches by trans leaders such as Aakruti Patel, Manasvi Goilkar, Aishwarya Pandav, Teju Punekar, and Mahendra Punekar, and interactive sessions designed to amplify trans voices.

Healthcare and Community Support Initiatives One of the event’s key highlights was a free health check-up camp that included general body check-ups and HIV testing for 50 trans individuals, both trans men and trans women. This initiative was crucial in bridging healthcare disparities and ensuring preventive care. Additionally, attendees received gift and ration kits, made possible through generous donations and sponsors such as Greenbiz Agro Industries, which donated 100 juice packets. Varsha Rajkhowa – Miss Scuba International 2016 and Founder Oceanic Divas and Steaffy Shaji Managing Director Oceanic Divas along with team members, and many other donors who gave ration kits.

Stories Café reinforced the spirit of inclusivity by hosting a heartwarming community lunch, fostering essential conversations, and strengthening connections among attendees. This celebration was not just about visibility—it was about creating real, lasting impact through healthcare, support, and advocacy.

Voices of Change: A Demand for Justice and Equality Shyam Konnur, Founder & CEO of Mist LGBTQ Foundation, emphasized the need for systemic change. “The global queer movement was ignited by the courage of trans people, yet even today, they are denied dignity, rights, and safety. From violence to exclusion, society continues to fail them. In India, we must do better. We must recognize, respect, and uplift trans lives—not just in words, but in law, policy, and everyday action.”

Sriram Sridhar, Director of Mist LGBTQ Foundation, echoed this sentiment, highlighting the organization’s commitment to equity and healthcare access. “Visibility is not just about being present; it’s about demanding a future where trans people are never left behind. That’s why we’ve provided free health insurance policies, bridging critical gaps in healthcare for trans individuals.”

Breaking Stereotypes and Challenging Misconceptions Nikki, a cook at Stories Café, emphasized the role of TDOV in challenging misconceptions about the transgender community. “People still have many stereotypes and misconceptions about the trans community. Events like TDOV are necessary to break such misconceptions.”

Meanwhile, Tejas Kshatriya, Health Coordinator at Mist LGBTQ Foundation, reinforced the need for accessible healthcare, stating, “Initiatives like free health camps are crucial for preventing many deadly diseases like HIV and for spreading awareness about them.”

The Road Ahead: Policy Changes and Community Support Mist LGBTQ Foundation continues its mission to uplift the trans community at a time when funding for LGBTQ+ initiatives is being slashed globally. With USAID funds and DEI projects being halted, grassroots efforts like TDOV become even more crucial in ensuring trans individuals receive the support they deserve.

The TDOV celebration in Pune exemplifies how community-driven efforts can foster inclusivity, health equity, and meaningful change. However, true progress requires sustained commitment from policymakers, corporations, and society at large. We must push for legislative reforms, workplace inclusivity, and social acceptance to ensure trans rights are upheld globally.

Conclusion: Beyond Visibility, Towards a Future of Equality Transgender Day of Visibility is more than just an observance—it is a battle cry for justice. While celebrating the achievements of trans individuals, we must also acknowledge the systemic challenges they face and work toward a future of true equality.

By amplifying trans voices, supporting inclusive initiatives, and advocating for policy reforms, we can ensure that visibility translates into lasting change. This TDOV, let’s go beyond recognition—let’s commit to building a society where trans individuals are not just seen but fully embraced, empowered, and protected under the law. The fight for trans rights is far from over, but together, we can shape a world where everyone, regardless of gender identity, has the right to live with dignity, respect, and equal opportunities.

Jharsuguda (Odisha) [India], March 28: Under its flagship “Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene” (WASH) initiative, Vedanta Aluminium has installed bio-toilets and solar powered bore-wells with water purifiers across key locations of Kuraloi in Jharsuguda district benefitting over 5,500 community members.

Gracing the inaugural function and highlighting the region’s need for clean water and improved sanitation infrastructure, Belpahar Municipality Chairman Mr Nimay Charan Panda said, “Access to potable water is a vital community requirement in these regions due to the high levels of iron content present in the ground water. Since scarcity of water and lack of hygienic sanitation infrastructure was another pressing need, especially, with the onset of harsh summer months, I thank Vedanta Aluminium for addressing these critical needs and promoting health, hygiene, and sustainable development in our region.”

Highlighting Vedanta’s community health initiatives, David Stone, CEO, Coal Mines, said, “Our efforts are closely aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly SDG 6, which focuses on clean water and sanitation. By enhancing access to safe drinking water and improving sanitation infrastructure in these regions, we aim to create healthier, more resilient communities and drive sustainable development in the areas where we operate.”

Notably, the bio-toilets, strategically installed in schools, Anganwadi centres and community health centres, function through an anaerobic bio-digester system where specially-developed bacteria decompose waste converting it into water, methane and carbon dioxide eliminating the need for manual desludging and promoting sustainable sanitation.

Additionally, the solar powered bore-wells and water purifiers provide potable drinking water to the community members promoting health and hygiene.

New Delhi [India], February 3: What happens when psyche, consciousness, and art come together? When psyche, consciousness, and art converge, it marks a state of profound self-awareness, where the individual achieves a unified understanding of their thoughts, emotions, and experiences. This convergence often leads to a sense of wholeness, clarity, and deep insight into one’s being. Keerthi Durugadda embodies this synergy through creations of abstractions that effortlessly merge beauty with practicality. Her artistic temperament is both rich and multifaceted, inviting critical analysis that explores the depth of her visual language and the nuanced themes she engages with.

The process of painting is rooted in the subconscious mind of the artist, where deeply ingrained images from the psyche begin to take form. Through the deliberate use of strokes, textures, design, and tone, these raw elements coalesce into a powerful abstraction. The subject matter of her work is often a fusion of nostalgia and imagination, drawn from a tapestry of personal experiences, emotions, moods, fantasies, and the profound influence of the environment and upbringing.”

Painting, for her, has been both a form of expression and a means of catharsis. “Relationships have manifested in me a deep spiritual sense,” she says, and it is these connections that inform much of her work. She explores themes of human existence, emotions, and interconnectedness, urging viewers to reflect on their own relationship with the natural world. She delves into the cyclical patterns of thought and the conflicts between personal obsessions and societal behavior.

The artist’s creative journey began four years ago when she started experimenting with small watercolor paintings, focusing on nudes and simple forms of expression. Over time, this evolved into abstraction, as she began exploring herself through different mediums. At a particularly challenging point in her life, when therapy and medication couldn’t provide relief, painting became her form of healing. It was through her art that she found an outlet for her emotions, using the process as a tool to shift her perception of life and to foster healing. Painting became a dialogue between herself and the society around her.

One of the striking aspects of Keerthi’s work is her masterful manipulation of space and theme, creating compositions that are both complete and dynamic. Each painting embodies a complexity of visualization and spontaneity, offering a portal to a realm where imagination reigns. Through this, she challenges viewers to confront the mysteries of existence with a fresh perspective. Her exploration of the digital medium demonstrates her skillful approach to organizing elements that create a vibrant interplay of bold colors, strokes, lines, and abstract forms, imbuing her work with movement and a sense of mystery.

The book offers deep insight into the lives and sufferings of British Raj imposed indentured labour (Coolies) from India

Eminent author and academician Dr. Rekha Chaturvedi released her book “Fiji Mein Bhartiyon Ka Itihas Tatha Unka Jeevan (1879 – 1947)" [(The Life and History of Indians in Fiji (1879 -1947)] based on her PhD Research on the momentous occasion of Pravasi Bharatiya Day. The 18th Pravasi Bharatiya Divas convention will be inaugurated by the Hon'ble Prime Minister of India, Shri Narendra Modi, on 9 January, 2025

Dr. Rekha Chaturvedi is the granddaughter of “late Shri Pandit Banarsi Das Chaturvedi “Rajya Sabha MP”.  Shri Banarsidas Chaturvedi has done immense work on Pravasi Bharatiya.

Dr. Rekha Chaturvedi said, “Fiji main bhartiyon ka Itihas tatha unka Jeevan (1879 – 1947)" offers a deep insight into the lives and sufferings of indentured labour from India. Dr Chaturvedi’s historic publication exposes the plight of Indian Indentured Labour on the occasion of 2025 Pravasi Bharatiya Divas. The book’s release on Pravasi Bharatiya Divas emphasizes its relevance to the Indian diaspora and serves as a tribute to their resilience and contributions. The book is a call to recognize and honor the sacrifices of the Indian diaspora, ensuring their stories are preserved for future generations.”

Indentured labour, also known as “Coolies” is a painful and shameful reality of the British Rule in India. South Africa, Mauritius, Trinidad, Guyana and Fiji have had a long and dark past for these “Girmitiyas” where they were forced to work in inhuman conditions performing hard, torturous taks.

This book published by Sasta Sahitya Mandal, brings to the light the indenture of these labour forces in services and their inhumane treatment and living conditions on the Island nation of Fiji. This issue was highlighted by Pandit Banarasi Das Chaturvedi in his Book “Fiji main mere 21 Varsh” based on the experiences of Shri Totaram Sanadhya, who was an indentured labour in Fiji.

Shri Banarsidas Chaturvedi spent several years in Fiji and wrote extensively about the predicament of Indians in Fiji. Inspired by her grandfather’s work, Dr. Rekha’s research sheds light on the struggles and resilience of Indian diaspora communities, particularly Girmitiyas. Despite personal and professional responsibilities, Dr. Rekha remained committed to her research. Her dedication reflects her deep connection to her heritage and her family's advocacy for Girmitiya issues.

With the intervention of Reverend C. F. Andrews, the system of indentured labour in Fiji was formally ended in 1920.

The book’s publisher, Sasta Sahitya Mandal, has a history of supporting socially significant literature, aligning with the book’s aim to shed light on underrepresented historical narratives.

Sexual shame is a deeply ingrained societal issue that can have lasting effects on mental health and self-perception. Rooted in cultural, religious, and social norms, this shame often leads to guilt, anxiety, and a fractured sense of identity. Despite its pervasive nature, many individuals are beginning to challenge these taboos, advocating for a healthier and more inclusive understanding of human sexuality.

Sradhanjali Dasgupta, a Kolkata-based Senior Consultant Psychologist and the Founder of Wandering Mind by Sradhanjali, plays a pivotal role in this movement. Through her compassionate, evidence-based approach, she empowers individuals to confront and overcome sexual shame, fostering a sense of self-acceptance and resilience.

Sexual shame often stems from early childhood experiences and societal conditioning. Many cultures associate sex with immorality, enforcing rigid behavioral standards that particularly target women. These expectations can lead to internalized shame, resulting in feelings of inadequacy or unworthiness. Sradhanjali emphasizes the importance of addressing these deeply rooted beliefs, as they not only impact an individual’s sexual identity but also their overall mental well-being.

In her practice, Sradhanjali uses evidence-based techniques to help individuals navigate this complex emotional terrain. She encourages clients to examine their beliefs about sexuality, challenging the negative narratives imposed by society. Her approach is tailored to each individual’s needs, ensuring they feel supported and empowered throughout their journey.

Beyond one-on-one therapy, Sradhanjali advocates for open discussions about sexuality in broader societal contexts. She believes that education and awareness are critical to dismantling the stigmas surrounding sex. Platforms like Fabulous She provide an opportunity for her to address these issues and highlight the mental health implications of sexual shame. Her recent article, “Resilience and Renewal,” sheds light on the struggles faced by single mothers, widows, and divorced women, groups often disproportionately affected by these stigmas.

The consequences of sexual shame are far-reaching. Individuals may experience difficulty in forming healthy relationships, reduced self-esteem, and even physical health issues due to chronic stress. Sradhanjali’s work focuses on creating a safe space where clients can confront these challenges, fostering emotional healing and self-empowerment.

Challenging societal taboos is not an easy task, but Sradhanjali believes that small, consistent efforts can lead to meaningful change. By promoting a culture of acceptance and understanding, she inspires individuals to embrace their sexuality without fear of judgment. Her efforts underscore the importance of compassion, both for oneself and others, in creating a more inclusive society.

Sradhanjali’s work reminds us that the journey to overcoming sexual shame begins with self-awareness and education. By addressing the societal roots of shame and empowering individuals to reclaim their narratives, she paves the way for a future where sexuality is no longer a source of stigma but a celebration of individuality and authenticity.

Digital Detox: Unplugging to Reconnect with Yourself

In an age dominated by technology, the concept of a digital detox is becoming increasingly relevant. With smartphones, social media, and constant notifications taking up much of our attention, many individuals find themselves disconnected from their own thoughts and emotions. A digital detox—temporarily stepping away from electronic devices—offers an opportunity to reconnect with oneself and prioritize mental well-being.

Sradhanjali Dasgupta, a Kolkata-based Senior Consultant Psychologist and the Founder of Wandering Mind by Sradhanjali, emphasizes the importance of striking a balance between digital engagement and personal connection. Through her evidence-based and compassionate approach, she helps individuals explore how excessive screen time impacts their mental health and guides them toward healthier habits.

The overuse of digital devices has been linked to increased stress, anxiety, and even depression. Constant exposure to curated content on social media often fosters unhealthy comparisons, leading to feelings of inadequacy. Moreover, the pressure to stay online and available at all times can result in burnout and emotional fatigue. Sradhanjali highlights that this cycle of digital dependency can significantly affect one’s overall quality of life, making digital detox a valuable tool for mental health.

A digital detox does not mean abandoning technology altogether but involves setting intentional boundaries. Sradhanjali encourages clients to identify their triggers for excessive device use, such as boredom or social pressure. By addressing these underlying motivations, individuals can create mindful routines that prioritize face-to-face interactions and self-care.

Reconnecting with oneself during a digital detox can take many forms. For some, it means rediscovering hobbies or spending time in nature. For others, it might involve journaling, meditating, or simply enjoying the company of loved ones without distractions. Sradhanjali advises incorporating these practices into daily life to maintain a sense of balance even after the detox period.

The benefits of a digital detox extend beyond improved mental health. Studies have shown that reducing screen time can enhance sleep quality, boost productivity, and foster deeper relationships. Sradhanjali often integrates these findings into her practice, tailoring strategies to each individual’s lifestyle and goals.

As a mental health advocate, Sradhanjali also raises awareness about the societal implications of excessive digital engagement. Platforms like Fabulous She have featured her insights on related topics, such as resilience and mental health challenges faced by marginalized groups. Her work continues to inspire individuals to take control of their digital habits and prioritize their well-being.

The idea of unplugging may seem daunting in a world that thrives on connectivity, but Sradhanjali believes that the benefits far outweigh the challenges. A digital detox is not just about limiting screen time—it is a step toward reclaiming control over one’s life and rediscovering what truly matters.

By guiding individuals through the process of digital detox, Sradhanjali helps them find clarity and balance in an increasingly chaotic world. Her approach serves as a reminder that while technology can be a powerful tool, true connection begins within ourselves.

New Delhi [India], December 10 : When it comes to skincare innovations, few products manage to strike the perfect balance between advanced science and effective results. The e’clat Eternal Bright Glutathione Serum, curated by the renowned e’clat Skin Institute, is one such example. This science backed product harnesses the power of nature’s finest brightening agents, and CEO of e’clat Skin Institute Mr. Deepank Gupta delves into its remarkable benefits for achieving radiant, even-toned skin.

What’s the Science behind Glutathione?

At the heart of this most trending skincare ingredient is Glutathione, a powerful antioxidant naturally present in our bodies. Its primary role is to protect cells from oxidative stress while regulating melanin production—the pigment responsible for skin tone. Applied topically, glutathione offers targeted benefits:

• Brightening the skin by inhibiting excess melanin synthesis.
• Delivering a radiant, youthful glow through cellular repair.
• Reducing dark spots and hyperpigmentation.

The Unique Blend of Ingredients in Eternal Bright

The brilliance of this product lies in its formulation. The e’clat Skin Institute has combined glutathione with scientifically validated ingredients to deliver superior results:

1. Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid):

A renowned antioxidant that reduces dullness and boosts collagen production.

Protects against free radicals and enhances skin brightness.

2. Niacinamide (Vitamin B3):

Balances oil production and minimizes pore appearance.

Strengthens the skin barrier, making it resilient to environmental damage.

3. Alpha Arbutin:

A natural brightening agent derived from plants, known for reducing melanin synthesis.

Gently fades spots, scars, and discoloration without irritation.

4. Hydrating Carriers and Penetrative Technology:

Ensures the serum penetrates deeply into the skin layers, delivering active ingredients exactly where they’re needed.

What Makes This Product a Game-Changer?

According to Mr. Deepank Gupta, the serum and cream aren’t just about superficial improvements—they work on a deeper level to address multiple skin concerns. Whether it’s uneven texture, discoloration, or loss of elasticity, this duo tackles it all.

• Fades Stubborn Pigmentation: Glutathione and alpha Arbutin reduce melanin activity to fade dark spots and brighten overall skin tone.
• Improves Skin Texture: Vitamin C and niacinamide repair and rejuvenate the skin, giving it a smoother and healthier appearance.
• Protects Against Future Damage: The antioxidant properties safeguard the skin from environmental aggressors like pollution and UV rays.

Why Trust the Expertise of e’clat Skin Institute?

As pioneers in advanced skincare formulations, the e’clat Skin Institute is committed to creating products backed by science. The Eternal Bright Glutathione Serum exemplifies this mission, combining potent natural ingredients with clinical-grade precision.

Affordable Skincare, Unmatched Quality

The Eternal Bright Glutathione Serum offers a luxurious skincare experience at an affordable price. At just ₹795 for 50 ml, it’s accessible through Amazon, Flipkart, and Myntra—making it easier than ever to embrace radiant skin.

How to Use E’clat Eternal Bright Glutathione Serum for Best Results
To maximize its effectiveness, Mr. Deepank Gupta recommends the following regimen:

• Cleanse Thoroughly: Start with a clean face to remove dirt and oil.
• Apply the Serum: Dispense 2-3 drops onto your palms and gently massage into your face and neck.
• Follow with the Cream: Seal in the serum’s active ingredients with a thin layer of cream.
• Sun Protection is a Must: Use a broad-spectrum sunscreen during the day to shield your skin from UV damage.

For optimal results, use this skincare duo twice daily.

How Does Science Back Its Claims?
Clinical studies on the active ingredients show significant improvements with consistent use:

A visible reduction in pigmentation and dark spots within 8-12 weeks.
Enhanced skin elasticity and smoothness.
A brighter complexion with diminished dullness.

Final Thoughts from Mr. Deepank Gupta

Skincare expert Mr. Deepank Gupta emphasizes the unique appeal of the Eternal Bright line: “This isn’t just another product on the shelf. It’s a scientifically validated, result-driven solution for anyone seeking to transform their skin. With its unique blend of glutathione, vitamin C, niacinamide, and alpha Arbutin, this serum and cream deliver everything your skin needs for a brighter, healthier future.”

Nails ‘N Beyond expands presence in Bengaluru with fourth state-of-the-art studio The nail care industry has been experiencing exceptional growth over the past year, thanks to a vibrant urban population, increased spending capacity and a more fashion-conscious Gen X

Bengaluru (Karnataka) [India]  : Women in Bengaluru with nails to show-off are in for a luxury treat. Nails ‘N Beyond, a leading name in the nail care industry from the house of Naturals, today inaugurated its fourth studio in the city, thanks to growing demand and a rapidly expanding customer base. 

The star attraction of the inaugural event was prominent rapper and songwriter Iykki Berry who along with several social media influencers set the ball rolling.  

More than a dozen super models from across Bengaluru participated in a one-of-its-kind fashion show, showcasing nail art custom designed by the artistes at Nails ‘N Beyond. The show was based on the theme of high street fashion and showcased Bengaluru’s iconic elements along with various messages on social responsibility. 

“Today’s women don’t just want to be fashionable but are keen on experiencing the positivity of feeling good. It is this combination that Nails ‘N Beyond brings on board. I have been associated with the brand for over three years and have experienced the world-class quality they offer and also witnessed the exceptional growth,” says Iykki Berry. 

The chic nail studio at Nexus Koramangala Mall boasts experienced nail artistes and premium facilities and will cater to fashion enthusiasts from the upmarket neighbourhood, offering a luxurious and premium experience at an affordable cost. 

The Nails ‘N Beyond brand has expanded in record time since the launch of its first store in India’s Silicon City in July 2023. “Bengaluru, thanks to its multicultural workforce and a pan Indian appeal, has led us towards double digit growth. We started out with our first store in the city just about a year ago and have since grown to four stores, with more to follow soon,” explains Veena Kumaravel, the founder of Nails ‘N Beyond and the Naturals salon chain. 

Naturals is also working with fashion enthusiasts in creating more than 1,000 nail artistes across India. “Currently we have a severe shortage of skilled nail artistes in India. Our programme is aimed at bridging this gap,” adds Veena.

“In less than 12 months Bengaluru alone has seen a significant increase in the number of new customers, and it is quite evident from the increase in the number of stores. Women have been the cornerstone of our growth, especially young fashion aspirants,” she adds. 

The nail care sector, within the beauty and personal care industry, has been experiencing exceptional growth over the past year, thanks to a vibrant urban population, their increased spending capacity and a more fashion-conscious Gen X.  

“We have set ourselves an aggressive growth plan for the next two years. We not only plan to expand to tier-2 cities but intend to open another 200 stores in the next 18 months across India,” says Veena. This is Nails ‘N Beyond’s 15th store in India and the brand is currently present across five cities in five states.
