markets Digital Career Strategy film Experts PAM Sen's Sensibility: The rebellious act of sticking around
Parvathy Thiruvothu told me just days back. The actor-activist was recalling those who cautioned her at the start of her career that a woman artiste has a limited 'shelf life'. You cannot last beyond a decade, after which you will be relegated to playing sister, aunt, and mother, they warned her. 'It's now been over 18 years since I entered films,' she added. 'My survival is my answer to those who said [that].' It is a happy coincidence that I ended 2024 on a stage conversing with Parvathy on the theme, 'She Is Writing History,' at the Wayanad Literature Festival, and I began 2025 watching a documentary on Aparna Sen, actor, director, magazine editor, activist, and all-round exemplar in the matter of both survival and history-making. Suman Ghosh's Parama: A Journey with Aparna Sen was released in theatres in Kolkata early this month after a positive reception on the festival circuit last year. The juxtaposition of these two women's stories in my mind took me back to my childhood when I first watched Sen's directorial debut, 36 Chowringhee Lane. Many years would pass before it occurred to me that until then I had not sampled the work of an Indian woman director. When 36 Chowringhee Lane was released in 1981, Sen was a rarity. The scenario has improved somewhat, but not dramatically so. Women directors are still not common.

markets UPS show performer Inside concert A falling note: Has Chennai's celebrated music season caught a chill?
TM Krishna singing Swathi Thirunal’s “Pankaja Lochana” in Raga Kalyani and Perumal Murugan’s freedom song on Christmas morning. It sat rapt listening to Sanjay Subrahmanyan’s “Sri Subramanyaya Namaste” in breathtaking Kambhoji, and Vishakha Hari’s “Andavane” in Shanmukhapriya. The Margazhi festival has been around for almost a century. It began with the founding of the Music Academy in 1928, celebrating, in particular, Carnatic music and Bharatnatyam. But is there a chill in the sabhas — the cultural organisations that are the force behind and the venue of concerts or kutcheris — this season? From insiders to hoteliers, many complain of a drop in the footfall of rasikas or connoisseurs. And yet a few others resist that narrative and say fans are flocking in and the festival is, indeed, on song.

markets UPS Strategy wellness testing cricket The Champions Trophy jigsaw puzzle: A breakdown of the options India could consider in the weeks leading up to the CT25
ODI series against England could serve as a dress rehearsal for under-pressure India. With Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli’s form under scrutiny, Jasprit Bumrah’s injury and doubts over Mohammed Shami’s return, it is a rare white-ball tournament where India would be considered favourites. The shift in expectations might not be a bad thing for the Indian men’s cricket team in the current circumstances. Before that, India have to make certain decisions regarding their personnel. Here is a role-wise breakdown of the options that the selectors could consider while picking up the squad: OPENERS: ROHIT, GILL, JAISWAL Rohit and Shubman Gill are likely to be the first-choice options going into the tournament. Rohit has been a stellar performer in white-ball cricket. His redball woes notwithstanding, the captain can well rediscover his mojo in the 50-over format. It was his efforts at the 2023 World Cup that helped India get off to flying starts and he will want to do the same in Dubai, where India will play their Champions Trophy matches. Gill, however, needs to be more consistent. While he deserves his place in the starting eleven, he will know that a few bad games could result in Yashasvi Jaiswal getting a look in. In that sense, the Champions Trophy is a big test for Gill as well. Jaiswal is going to be India’s back-up opener to start with. He offers the left-hand option that India miss in the top order.

So, when a statue does strike me as being, well, striking, I'm not only delighted, but also stand for minutes on end to admire such wonderful anomalies in stone. As I did recently when I was staying in the Fort area of Mumbai and chanced upon a figure reading a book on top of a cupola held up by a two-storeyed, many-pillared, intricately carved structure. Even in the busy gol chakkar of P D'Mello Road and Mint Road, with his pedestal crisscrossed by lawless electric lines and tres anar-chic pigeons trying their damndest best to make him look up from his book, the figure — on closer inspection, a boy — is unperturbed, utterly immersed. His right hand holds the book as if it's a Kindle. His left hand to his side is balled up in a fist as if reacting to a particularly riveting, or even disturbing, passage.

markets UPS Strategy wellness PAM stars MAGA star Donald Trump is shaking up nationalism
MAGA star Donald Trump wants to Make America Greater Again. In sq kms, that is. We all know of the US annexing nearly 13 lakh sq km of Mexican territory after winning the war with Mexico in 1848; buying 76,800 sq km in present day southern Arizona and southwestern New Mexico — the area known as Gadsden Purchase — from Mexico in 1854; buying Alaska from Russia in 1867; annexing independent Hawaii in 1898; procuring 117 sq km of Guantanamo Bay to set up a US detention camp in 1903, which the Cuban communist government has considered illegal since it came to power in 1959. There's, of course, the United States of America itself, carved out of lands not 'owned' by anyone when it was occupied by Native Americans, then turned into a British colony, and ultimately an independent nation state in 1776 according to Westphalian sovereignty norms invented in 17th century Europe. But less well known is America's territorial losses. The Panama Canal Zone, which it acquired in 1904 from private and public Panamanian owners, was returned to Panama in 1979, formally ceding its control in 1999. In Oceania, Japan-occupied Marshall Islands, which the US occupied after WW2, got its independence in 1979. The same 'transition' model was followed with Federated States of Micronesia and Palau, both of which officially gained independence from US 'trusteeship' in 1990 and 1994, respectively.

markets Digital Google Strategy Experts PAM Inside Beside Vasco da Gama’s tomb, 500 years later: A story of neglected opportunities to lure foreign tourists
What instantly caught my attention were the charming bylanes with curious names: Princess Street, Napier Street and Peter Cell Street, all dotted with elegant European-style homes. At the centre of it stood a square named after Vasco da Gama, a figure plucked straight out of my school history books. I made my way to St Francis Church, one of Kerala’s oldest churches, where the Portuguese explorer Vasco da Gama was laid to rest for 14 years until his son, Petro de Silva da Gama, carried his mortal remains back to Portugal. Inside, an enclosure marked by a signboard reading “Vasco da Gama Tomb” caught my eye. Taking a seat on a nearby wooden bench, I began googling the famed navigator, only to be stunned by an unexpected revelation—da Gama died in Kochi on December 24, 1524.

Frequent travellers who swear by “never checking a bag” are not chuffed to be travelling lighter. Gautam Sinha, founder and creative director of artisanal leather brand Nappa Dori that also makes travel luggage, flies frequently within India and to Dubai, London, and Sri Lanka to manage his many stores. He is concerned that it will be a major disadvantage to travellers, and says, “It has been proven by the experience of similar structures in European and American budget airlines that the consumer ends up paying a lot more for a basic flight.” One thing he is sure of: “It will definitely make people think more before they pack now.”

Advanced Light Helicopter that led to the deaths of three coast guard personnel this week. The indigenous fleet of Helicopters — about 330 of them are currently in service — has been grounded for comprehensive checks while the crash is being probed. Sources said that the crash occurred after the crew reported a sudden loss of control second before the chopper hurtled to the ground. It is learnt that flight data being studied did not show any obvious reason for the loss of control and the probe team is now examining the transmission system for a possible failure. Earlier, the indigenous helicopter had undergone comprehensive design review by Netherlands based NLR and had been given a green signal. Recently some changes were made in the transmission system and control rods were changed after instances of material failure came to light.

Kate Middleton has a major chance of rising to the throne as the Queen of England in the near future, as she is currently in the line of succession. However, reports suggest that the reigning King of England and his Queen, are currently staying away from giving any kind of advice to Middleton about her prospects of rising to the throne. King Charles III and Middleton have reportedly bonded for some time now, especially due to their shared battle of fighting cancer. However, that has not ignited any idea within King Charles III about Middleton's future as the head of the Royal Family of the UK. Reports also suggest that King Charles III has been very impressed with Middleton's grace and grit for a long time, and that has seen fruition with respect to Kate becoming the Royal Companion of Honour, which is a sign that the King acknowledges her ability to carry the name of the Royal Family forward at the highest levels.

Anubal Fusion, headquartered in Hyderabad, was the first Indian startup to throw the hat into the ring. It has raised a pre-seed round from VC firm Speciale Invest. Hyderabad-based Hylenr has, meanwhile, received a patent for its version of a low-energy reactor which, in theory, could have applications in specific low energy use cases like aboard satellites. The three startups, all at an early stage, are taking different routes to solving the challenges in sustaining fusion.
