Every filmmaker has got a different vision to make something interesting for their audience. Rohit Kishnani is known for making horror the r genre in Bollywood. He recently hit the headlines when he introduced American backwoods style thriller film in Bollywood titled ‘Kyun: The Killer Night. Rohit along with his brother Rohan Kishnani has been investing in several Bollywood films. The duo has been working for several projects together including a lot of music videos. With having launched more than 10 music videos with Zee Music Company and T-Series, the brothers are making smart investments and producing some really good stuff for the audience. 

While both of them hail from Canada, their roots are from India and they are trying to bring a change in Bollywood with American style films. Moreover, the brothers have two production houses – Rohit Kishnani Productions and RSR Films where they plan to produce a lot of music videos. Some of their best works include a song titled ‘O Jaana’ with music maestro Rahat Fateh Ali Khan which had actress Iqra Aziz in it. The talented brothers have worked with many other renowned singers like Mohammed Irfan, Mika Singh,  Fateh doe, Aishwarya Majmudar among others.

As a producer, Rohit has produced some music videos named ‘Pyar Jatt Da’, ‘So High’, ‘Lariya Ishq’ and many others. His latest work was a music video titled ‘Tere Bajon’ which was released in December 2019. ‘Soniye’ and ‘Kala Suit’ were also released in November last year. While speaking about his experience, Rohit said, “A filmmaker has got his/her freedom to make a film. In these recent years, I have shifted my focus towards making some relevant cinema for the audience and I along with Rohan will soon be working on some films which will be releasing soon.”

Humble beginnings, big dreams, and an envy-inducing physique – that would be the best way to describe Delhi’s bodybuilding champ, Tarun Dutta. He has just won the title of Mr. Pan Pacific 2017 at the Pan Pacific ProAm International 2017, held in New Zealand, and is the only Indian to have done that. Looking at him today, it’s hard for one to imagine that he, at one point, weighed a meager 45 kgs. “That had been my motivation. I used to be so thin during school days that my peers would bully me, and that’s when I decided to start gaining weight,” he says, talking about how his interest was sparked. Dutta tells us that he reached 108 kilos before thinking of becoming lean again, post which he again lost a few kilos

“I’m from a very middle-class family. Bodybuilding wasn’t as huge then, so my family would ask me to focus on my studies. They’d say: ‘Tune itna gain bhi kar liya hai, itna khaane lag gaya hai. Padhai pe dhyaan de le’ (You’ve gained so much weight, you eat so much…now start studying),” he continues, adding, “And back then, a jar of protein was around ?4000, so, it was hard to arrange. Toh tab main stalls lagata tha (I would put up stalls), and I would earn ?100 per day. Then, I started coaching in gyms, borrowed some money from parents and invested it all in my body. Woh din the aur ek aaj ka din hai.”

The 39-year-old has won over ten international titles and is a medallist at events organized by International Bodybuilding and Fitness Federation, including Mr. World 2015 and 2016 and Mr. Universe 2016. Ask him about the hard work that goes into it, and Dutta lists four hours of working out a day and a strict diet. “Even during the offseason, I diet for ten days non-stop before indulging in a cheat day. Then I gorge on golgappas, ice creams, and vegetarian food. If I ever give up bodybuilding, main non-vegetarian food ki taraf dekhunga bhi nahi – Maine itna kha liya hai (I won’t even look at non-veg, I have eaten it so much!),” he jokes.   

And despite all his successes, he believes he still has a long way to go. “For now, I want to continue participating in competitions, for at least the next 10 years. I also want to bring fitness to every house and I am working towards that,” he says.

Finishing up, Dutta says that credits for his success go to his parents and gurus. “Apart from my gurus and my parents, no one has supported me. For all those of you who want to scale new heights in life, find a guru, and respect and follow him or her,” he concludes.

Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman on Saturday announced cuts in personal income tax, extended tax benefits for affordable housing and gave relief to companies on payment of dividends in the Union Budget for 2020-21 as the government looked to boost consumption to bring an economy out of the worst slowdown in 11 years.
Aspirational India, economic development and a caring society for all are the three prominent themes of the Union Budget 2020-21, Sitharaman said presenting her second Budget in the Lok Sabha.
Sitharaman’s marathon 2 hour 43 minutes speech, the longest by any Finance Minister, which she had to truncate with only two pages left unread, sought to lift the economy largely on Rs 13 lakh crore government spending and set an ambitious disinvestment target that hinges on a stake sale in crown jewel Life Insurance Corporation of India, which has a net worth of over Rs 31 lakh crore.
The Finance Minister proposed raising customs duty on a variety of products ranging from tableware and kitchenware to footwear, furniture, stationery, and toys to give a level-playing field to domestic companies and boost ‘Make in India.’
Sitharaman in her Budget for 2020-21, proposed new income tax slabs of 15 percent and 25 percent in addition to the existing 10 percent, 20 percent, and 30 percent.
The new income tax slabs would be for individuals not availing certain specified deductions or exemptions. Under the proposed income tax slabs, annual income up to Rs 2.5 lakh is exempt from tax, Those individuals earning between Rs 2.5 lakh to Rs five lakh will pay 5 percent. Income between Rs 5 lakh and Rs 7.5 lakh will be taxed 10 percent, while those between Rs 7.5 lakh and Rs 10 lakh at 15 percent.
Those earning between Rs 10 lakh and Rs 12.5 lakh will pay tax at 20 percent whereas those between Rs 12.5 lakh and Rs 15 lakh will pay at the rate of 25 percent. Income above Rs 15 lakh will be taxed at 30 percent. Individuals opting for taxation under new rates will not be entitled to exemption/deductions, including under Section 80C and 80D, LTC, housing rent allowance, the deduction for entertainment allowance, professional tax and interest on self-occupied/vacant plot.
Currently, annual income up to Rs 2.5 lakh is exempt from income tax, While a 5 percent tax is charged for income between Rs 2,5 lakh and Rs 5 lakh. 20 percent for income between Rs 5 lakh and Rs 10 lakh and 30 percent for those whose income is above Rs 10 lakh.
Clad in a bright yellow sari with a light green border, Sitharaman recited a poem in Kashmiri and its Hindi translation in her Budget speech. The poem referred to Shalimar Bagh and Dal Lake in Kashmir emphasizing that India belongs to all its citizens.
The gesture comes as Kashmir valley remains on the path to normalcy after the abrogation of Article 370.
The Hindi translation of the poem read:         Humara watan,         Khilte hue Shalimar Bagh jaise,         Humara watan Dal Lake mein khilte hue kamal jaisa         nau jawanon ke garam khoon jaisa,         mere watan tera watan          humara watan,         duniya ke sabse pyara watan,
Sitharaman followed up with Tamil adage about tending to land, after which she announced measures to boost the agricultural sector and farmers’ income. As the Finance Minister delivered her Budget speech, some of her remarks including Beti Bachao, Beti Padhao met with protests from the Opposition Benches, Sitharaman’s Budget speech was peppered with quotes from Kalidasa’s Sanskrit work Raghuvamsam, Tamil philosopher Thiruvalluvar’s Tirukkural”The new regime shall be optional for taxpayers,” she said.”The proposed structure will provide significant relief to taxpayers and more those in the middle class,” Sitharaman said.To boost growth, the Finance Minister announced higher spending on infrastructure, rural development, and the Agri sector, The government is proposing a 16-point action plan to boost agriculture and farmers’ welfare, she said.
On the other hand, the Finance Minister’s Budget announcement failed to lift investor sentiments with BSE Sensex tumbling over 1,000 points and Nifty slipping below 11,650 marks, Budget 2020 has also proposed a new tax regime. As per the new regime, 70 tax exemptions will be removed.
“In order to simplify the income tax system, I have reviewed all the exemptions and deductions which got incorporated in the income tax legislation over the past several decades. It was surprising to know that currently more than one hundred exemptions and deductions of different natures are provided in the Income Tax Act. I have removed around 70 of them in the new simplified regime. We will review and nationalize the remaining exemptions and deductions in the coming years with a view to further simplify the tax system and lowering the tax rate,” Sitharaman said.
To further ease the process to allot PAN (Permanent Account Number), the government will launch a system of instant allotment of PAN on the basis of Aadhar, ” the Finance Minister said.
The government has permitted Deposit Insurance and Credit Guarantee Corporation (DICGC) to raise deposit insurance coverage by five times to Rs 5 lakhs from Rs 1 lakh, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said new reforms in Budget 2020 will accelerate the economy.
He said agriculture, infrastructure, textiles, and technology are the main areas of employment. “In order to increase the employment generation, these four have been given a lot of emphasis in the Budget, ” he said.      

The annual Budget for 2020-21 of the Modi government, presented by Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman in Parliament on Saturday, harped upon some key themes like aspirational India, economic development for all, ease of living, good governance, a caring society and trusting citizens.
The highlight of Ms Sitharaman’s second budget speech in a row was reduction in income tax rates. She proposed a new tax regime and a tax payers’ charter. In the new Income Tax regime those earning between Rs 5 lakh and 7.5 lakh per annum, will now pay 10 per cent as personal income tax as against the prevailing 20 per cent.  The government has given an option to individual tax payers to join the new tax regime without claiming several tax exemptions or continue in the old rate and claim tax exemptions.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi said the Budget 2020 has vision and action and the new reforms announced by the Finance Minister will give a push to the economy.
Other key steps, she proposed to spend Rs 99,300 crore on skill development and also announced a reduction in corporate taxes with a view to make India a preferred investment destination. She also announced the government’s intention to sell stake in Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC), the country’s largest insurer, through the Initial Public Offering (IPO) route to help generate revenue.  
The Budget speech also had announcements pertaining to the welfare of SCs, OBCs and STs, education, agriculture, and Anganwadi workers.
Amid an economic slowdown, high unemployment rate, rising inflation, and a prediction of low growth rate for India coming from the International Monetary Fund (IMF), the Finance Minister set the fiscal deficit at 3.5 percent in Revised Estimates for 2020-21 as the government continued to look for measures to spruce up a sagging economy.
She said the fiscal deficit for the current year would widen to 3.8 percent in Budget Estimates of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP), up from the target of 3.3 percent.
Other big-ticket announcements include Rs 2.83 lakh crore for the agriculture sector, Rs 35,600 crore for nutrition-related programs.
The Finance Minister said the budget was aimed at boosting incomes and enhancing purchasing power, stressing that the economy’s fundamentals were strong and inflation was well contained.
Several items will become costlier, including imported medical equipment, cigarettes, and tobacco products. Ms. Sitharaman proposed the withdrawal of customs duty exemption on raw sugar, agro-animal based products, tuna bait, skimmed milk, certain alcoholic beverages, soya fibre and soya protein.
Some of the items which will see consumers coughing up more include footwear, furniture, wall fans, cigarettes, tobacco products, tableware/kitchenware made of porcelain or China ceramic, clay iron, steel, copper, catalytic converters, parts of commercial vehicles, selected electronic vehicles, selected toys, selected mobile equipment. Items for which consumers will have to pay less include raw sugar, skimmed milk, soya fibre, soya protein, certain alcoholic beverages, agro-animal based products, tuna bait, purified terephthalic acid (PTA), newsprint and lightweight coated paper.
The Finance Minister went on for 160 minutes without any break — the longest budget speech ever. She had to stop the speech abruptly because she felt unwell.
Ms Sitharaman had only two pages of her speech left unread when she appeared uneasy and was seen wiping sweat from her forehead.
She was offered throat soothers by her ministerial colleagues, but that did not help. The Minister chose to discontinue the speech and requested Speaker Om Birla to consider the remaining speech as read.
She had broken her own record of a 2-hour-17-minute-long Budget speech in July 2019.
As much anticipated announcement about tax relief has been doing the rounds, the Budget announced the personal Income tax regime with income between Rs 7.5 lakh and Rs 10 lakh can pay tax at 15 percent while with income between Rs 10 and Rs 12.5 lakh can pay tax at 20 percent against 30 percent earlier. Those with income between Rs 10 lakh and Rs 12.5 lakh will have to pay 20 per cent tax against earlier 30 per cent. People with an income of Rs 12.5 lakh to Rs 15 lakh will have to pay a 25 percent tax against 30 percent earlier.
She said those earning Rs 15 lakh per year and not availing any exemption will have to pay Rs 1.95 lakh in tax, getting a relief of Rs 78,000 as against the prevailing tax rates.
The new tax rate is same as the existing 30 percent for income above Rs 15 lakh.

The ‘Vivaad se Vishwas’ scheme provides a solution to direct taxpayers and gives more money into people’s hand, she told reporters, adding around 4.90 lakh cases of direct tax are still pending across the different courts of the country and the scheme guarantees them to sort them out in one go.
The Prime Minister said the new reforms announced in the Budget will work to accelerate the economy, financially empower every citizen of the country and strengthen the foundation of the economy in this decade.
Congress MP Rahul Gandhi, reacting to the Budget, said, “The main issue facing the economy is unemployment. I didn’t see any strategic, concrete idea that would help our youth get jobs. I saw tactical stuff but no central idea. It shows the mindset of the government, all talk, and talk but nothing happening. There is a lot of repetition, rambling.”
Congress leader and former Finance Minister P Chidambaram said, “Indian economy is demand-constrained and investment-starved. Finance Minister has not acknowledged these two challenges, and that is a pity. Consequently, she has proposed no measures or solutions to those two challenges.

Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman while presenting her second Budget in the Lok Sabha on Saturday had to stop abruptly with two more pages yet to be readout. Her Budget speech of 2020-21 was the longest so far, continuing for two hours and 40 minutes but had to stop as she felt unwell while hurtling towards the conclusion.
She sought permission of the Speaker Om Birla to take the remaining part of her Budget speech as having read. Defence Minister Rajnath Singh who was seated next to Prime Minister Narendra Modi on the front row bench was seen advising her to stop her speech. Her Cabinet colleague Harsimrat Kaur Badal rushed to the Finance Minister and was seen advising her to take rest. Ms. Sitharaman appeared to be feeling uneasy and perspiring.
After introducing the Finance Bill 2020-21, Ms. Sitharaman took her seat and the Lok Sabha was adjourned for the day.
Last year, Ms. Sitharaman’s speech had lasted for nearly two hours, 17 minutes.
Both the treasury and the opposition benches were packed. Congress interim President Sonia Gandhi and Samajwadi Party supremo Mulayam Singh Yadav were not present in the Lok Sabha. On at least half a dozen occasions during the Budget speech, Opposition members raised their voices in protest when references to security, happiness, and ease of living came as well as when a reference to Beti Bachao, Beti Padhao was being readout. 

The Union Cabinet has approved the Medical Termination of Pregnancy (Amendment) Bill, 2020 to amend the Medical Termination of Pregnancy Act, 1971. This will allow termination pregnancy of 20-24 weeks of gestation.
In order to increase access of women to safe abortion services and taking into account the advances in medical technology, the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare proposed amendments after extensive consultation with various stakeholders and several ministries.
The Bill will be introduced in the ensuing session of the Parliament.
Termination of pregnancy of 20-24 weeks of gestation will require the opinion of two service providers. The opinion of one provider for termination of pregnancy, up to 20 weeks of gestation is mandatory.
The upper gestation limit from 20 to 24 weeks has been enhanced for special categories of women which will be defined in the amendments to the MTP Rules and would include ‘vulnerable women including survivors of rape, victims of incest and other vulnerable women (like differently-abled women, Minors) etc.
The upper gestation limit will not apply in cases of substantial foetal abnormalities diagnosed by the Medical Board. The composition, functions and other details of Medical Board to be prescribed subsequently in Rules under the Act.
Name and other particulars of a woman whose pregnancy has been terminated shall not be revealed except to a person authorized in any law for the time being in force.
The Medical Termination of Pregnancy (Amendment) Bill, 2020 is for expanding access of women to safe and legal abortion services on therapeutic, eugenic, humanitarian or social grounds. The proposed amendments include substitution of certain sub-sections, insertion of certain new clauses under some sections in the existing Medical Termination of Pregnancy Act, 1971, with a view to increase upper gestation limit for termination of pregnancy under certain conditions and to strengthen access to comprehensive abortion care, under strict conditions, without compromising service and quality of safe abortion.
It is a step towards the safety and well-being of the women and many women will be benefitted from this. Recently several petitions were received by the Courts seeking permission for aborting pregnancies at a gestational age beyond the present permissible limit on grounds of foetal abnormalities or pregnancies due to sexual violence faced by women. The proposed increase in gestational age will ensure dignity, autonomy, confidentiality and justice for women who need to terminate the pregnancy.

Authors caution that given the lack of a robust and detailed timeline of records of suspected, probable, and confirmed cases and close contacts, the true size of the epidemic and its pandemic potential remains unclear.
New modelling research, published in The Lancet, estimates that up to 75,800 individuals in the Chinese city of Wuhan may have been infected with 2019 novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) as of January 25, 2020.
Senior author Professor Gabriel Leung from the University of Hong Kong highlights: “Not everyone who is infected with 2019-nCoV would require or seek medical attention. During the urgent demands of a rapidly expanding epidemic of a completely new virus, especially when system capacity is getting overwhelmed, some of those infected may be undercounted in the official register.
He explains: “The apparent discrepancy between our modelled estimates of 2019-nCoV infections and the actual number of confirmed cases in Wuhan could also be due to several other factors. These include that there is a time lag between infection and symptom onset, delays in infected persons coming to medical attention, and time taken to confirm cases by laboratory testing, which could all affect overall recording and reporting.”
The new estimates also suggest that multiple major Chinese cities might have already imported dozens of cases of 2019-nCoV infection from Wuhan, in numbers sufficient to initiate local epidemics.
The early estimates underscore that it will likely take rapid and immediate scale-up of substantial public health control measures to prevent large epidemics in areas outside Wuhan. Further analyses suggest that if transmissibility of 2019-nCoV could be reduced, both the growth rate and size of local epidemics in all cities across China could be reduced.
“If the transmissibility of 2019-nCoV is similar nationally and over time, it is possible that epidemics could be already growing in multiple major Chinese cities, with a time lag of one to two weeks behind the Wuhan outbreak,” says lead author Professor Joseph Wu from the University of Hong Kong. “Large cities overseas with close transport links to China could potentially also become outbreak epicentres because of substantial spread of pre-symptomatic cases unless substantial public health interventions at both the population and personal levels are implemented immediately.” 
According to Professor Gabriel Leung: “Based on our estimates, we would strongly urge authorities worldwide that preparedness plans and mitigation interventions should be readied for quick deployment, including securing supplies of test reagents, drugs, personal protective equipment, hospital supplies, and above all human resources, especially in cities with close ties with Wuhan and other major Chinese cities.” 
In the study, researchers used mathematical modelling to estimate the size of the epidemic based on officially reported 2019-nCoV case data and domestic and international travel (i.e., train, air, road) data. They assumed that the serial interval estimate (the time it takes for infected individuals to infect other people) for 2019-nCoV was the same as for severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS: table 1). The researchers also modelled potential future spread of 2019-nCoV in China and internationally, accounting for the potential impact of various public health interventions that were implemented in January 2020 including use of face masks and increased personal hygiene, and the quarantine measures introduced in Wuhan on January 23.
The researchers estimate that in the early stages of the Wuhan outbreak (from December 1, 2019 to January 25, 2020) each person infected with 2019-nCoV could have infected up to 2-3 other individuals on average, and that the epidemic doubled in size every 6.4 days. During this period, up to 75,815 individuals could have been infected in Wuhan.
Additionally, estimates suggest that cases of 2019-nCoV infection may have spread from Wuhan to multiple other major Chinese cities as of January 25, including Guangzhou (111 cases), Beijing (113), Shanghai (98), and Shenzhen (80; figure 3). Together these cities account for over half of all outbound international air travel from China.
While the estimates suggest that the quarantine in Wuhan may not have the intended effect of completely halting the epidemic, further analyses suggest that if transmissibility of 2019-nCoV could be reduced by 25% in all cities nationally with expanded control efforts, both the growth rate and size of local epidemics could be substantially reduced. Moreover, a 50% reduction in transmissibility could shift the current 2019-nCoV epidemic from one that is expanding rapidly, to one that is slowly growing .
“It might be possible to reduce local transmissibility and contain local epidemics if substantial, even draconian, measures that limit population mobility in all affected areas are immediately considered. Precisely what and how much should be done is highly contextually specific and there is no one-size-fits-all set of prescriptive interventions that would be appropriate across all settings,” says co-author Dr Kathy Leung from the University of Hong Kong. “On top of that, strategies to drastically reduce within-population contact by cancelling mass gatherings, school closures, and introducing work-from-home arrangements could contain the spread of infection so that the first imported cases, or even early local transmission, does not result in large epidemics outside Wuhan.”
The authors point to several limitations of their study, including that the accuracy of their estimates depend on their assumption about the zoonotic source of infection in Wuhan. They also highlight that the models assume travel behaviour was not affected by disease status and that all infections eventually have symptoms—so it is possible that milder cases have gone undetected which could underestimate the size of the outbreak. Lastly, they note that their epidemic forecast was based on inter-city mobility data from 2019, and might not reflect mobility patterns in 2020, particularly in light of the health threat posed by 2019-nCoV.

Indian Institute of Technology, Hyderabad claims to have developed an essential-oil-based drug delivery systems to treat fungal infections without running the risk of inducing drug resistance. This medication can even counter fungi that have developed resistance to conventional antifungal drugs.  
Microorganisms such as bacteria and fungi have a remarkable capacity to evolve resistance to antimicrobial agents used to destroy them, a statement issued by the Institute has said.
The research was led by Dr. Mudrika Khandelwal, Associate Professor, Department of Materials Science and Metallurgical Engineering, IIT Hyderabad, and supported with funds by the Science and Engineering Research Board, Department of Science and Technology (DST), Government of India, and Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Grants from the American multinational conglomerate AT&T.
The research paper, co-authored with her Ph.D. Student Ms. Shivakalyani Adepu, was published in the international peer-reviewed journal Materialia.
With the results of this work, the researchers are developing prototype antifungal hygiene products with the financial support from the Biotechnology Industry Research Assistance Council (BIRAC), set up by the Department of Biotechnology (DBT), Government of India, as an Interface Agency to strengthen and empower emerging Biotech enterprises.
Highlighting the need for developing alternate, non-resistance inducing treatment options for fungal diseases, Dr. Mudrika Khandelwal, Associate Professor, Department of Materials Science and Metallurgical Engineering, said, “Given the prevalence of fungal infections such as vaginal infections, diaper rash, athlete’s foot, and nail fungus, caused by the Candida family of fungi, drug resistance can become life-threatening.”
The Institute turned to natural products to solve this problem. The idea of using carriers for controlled release of drugs has been around and various types of carriers including polymeric microcapsules, nanoemulsions/colloids and hydrogels have been developed for various drugs.
Elaborating on this research, Ms. Shivakalyani Adepu, Ph.D. Student, Department of Materials Science And Metallurgical Engineering, said, “Herbal essential oils and their ingredients are a promising class of effective antimicrobials Thymol found in oregano oils, carvacrol found in thyme and eugenol found in clove oil, have excellent antimicrobial action against all types of Candida fungi. The problem with essential oils and their components is that they are sensitive to temperature, light, and pH, and decompose easily.”
A way to overcome this problem is to design a suitable carrier system that can protect the oils/active principles from these factors, and yet, release them in a controlled manner so that the antifungal action can be fully harnessed.
“Currently we are developing antifungal panty liners for mitigating vaginal candidiasis. The developed formulation can also be used as a transdermal patch /mucoadhesive patch to treat skin and mucocutaneous infections without inducing resistance in the fungal species,” added Dr. Khandelwal.
The team chose polylactic acid microcapsules to encapsulate the essential oil ingredients. Polylactic acid polymers are biocompatible and biodegradable and are already widely used in the medical field. The researchers found that using the microcapsules alone as the carrier could cause uncontrolled, burst release of the ingredients.
To delay the release of the active principles, the researches designed another level of protection. The polylactic acid microcapsules that contained the active substances were further incorporated into a secondary barrier made of nanofibrous bacterial cellulose. In addition to designing the double-barrier carrier system, the researchers also enhanced the anti-fungal activity of their formulation by using synergistic mixtures of thymol, carvacrol, and eugenol.
The researchers compared their double-barrier, triple-ingredient formulation with simple colloids of the ingredients and found that the latter suffered from a far more rapid decrease in activity compared to their design.  Furthermore, their controlled-release design achieved 99.9% fungistatic action within 12 hours, with only half the concentration of thymol, carvacrol, and eugenol as the colloidal samples, thus enabling small dosages for treatment.
