He is one of the most talented and humble tattoo artists in our country. He accepted his love for this profession at a very young age, when he saw his classmate draw a tattoo on his wrist with a pen. He had been very intrigued since then about this art form. Hurdles are always part of a great success story. His parents, like any other Indian parents, did not approve of this profession. But his dedication and his deliberate efforts convinced them to understand his passion. He gained his initial knowledge from a famous tattoo expert named Nick Sharma from Ludhiana, and then, nothing could stop him from achieving all the success in the world. Today he owns a tattoo parlour named “Kamz Inkzone.”

He yearned to learn more about the forms of tattoo and the designs. He has attended many conventions across the globe that have helped him pave ways to a greater learning source. In the Second International Tattoo Convention that was held in Goa, Kamz was the only one invited from Punjab. He has been very persistent in his efforts to attend such conventions, learn from talented and well-known tattoo artists, and also bring so much glory to India. He has also been a part of a convention in Nepal and he has attended on in Russia too. He is also going to be a part of a convention in Europe as well.

Kamz, as a person is very humble and his urge to become proficient in this profession is never ending. He has made tattoos for some very famous personalities namely Yuvraj Hans, A-Kay, Sara Gurpal, Garry Sandhu, Ninja, Elly Mangat, Sukh-E-Musical Doctorz.

Irrespective of all the negativity, he has been aiming for the bull’s eye.

Journo Sandip Pal Asked to Take Down His Article By This Director, He Didn’t Budge!

The India Saga Saga |

During these times of marketing and gimmicks, it is the only quantity that sells, barely anyone is bothered about the quality! But, there are still a few who take it upon themselves to make sure, being in the public domain entails a lot of responsibility. It entails a lot of pressure to deliver information that matter! In this day and age, entertainment journalism has reduced to nothing but PR content that is so much replete in the media that original journalism is nowhere to be found! In fact, even in press conferences, some journalists are egged by the PRs to ask questions that according to them will benefit their clients (in this case the actors they are publicists to)! However, it is journalists like Sandip Pal who makes sure to steer clear of all such activities and is also brazen enough to ban any PR company or publicity personnel who indulge or want the journalists to indulge in such cheap tactics! 

He is always in a quest to bring reality in front of the world. In his own words, “being a public figure, I feel, the reality should not be messed with at all and I believe I can withstand whatever it takes to bring out the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth in its absolute nudeness!” He further says, being a Bonafede journalist, it is my duty and why would I give in to cheap PR practices.” He questions! This is also the reason behind all the problems and controversies that he has faced and continues to face in his career! It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to call him journalism’s controversy child. Once again, he has managed to embroil himself in yet another controversy! 

Well, according to a source, “A few days ago, Sandip Pal had done a “Breaking Story” about the new film of Anurag Kashyap titled ‘Choked’. Being a competent journalist with very good sources, Sandip managed to cull out the entire story of Anurag’s film. When the director got to know about this, he thought it would really affect his film adversely, so without thinking twice, he called Sandip and asked him to take down the story!” The source continued, “However, Sandip Pal being what he is, did not take down the story and it is still very much up there.”

When we got in touch with Sandip, he confirmed the news. Quipped he, “Yes, it is true, Anurag called me to take down the story. According to him, my article was giving out all the major details of his film and it would be really disadvantageous for him and his film if people came to know about the main concept before it is released!”

Sandip further revealed, “Anurag also said, that he was anyway taking a risk by making this film with newcomers and on top of it, if media and then the audiences start making conjectures about his film from now, it would be very bad for the film. The intrigue of the film would be destroyed.”

When asked why he has still kept his article online, he brazenly stated, “Anurag did his job, he made a film, that is his job and I did mine. I wrote an article digging deep and bringing out a nice story, that is what my job entails. How can anyone stop me from doing my job? At the same time, I also realize that what he said was not incorrect. And it is obvious that he as a filmmaker will be piqued by my story.

Therefore, instead of taking down the story, I did remove a part of it which bothered him the most as the maker of the film. In this way, I kind of did what he wanted and at the same time, I didn’t cow down!”

Well, it seems to be quite a psychological affair, but having said that, taking a firm step in this way speaks volumes about Sandip’s cheek and audacity! And this is how journalists should work in real. Only then the phrase ‘free-press’ will be justified.

Over 83% of Indians consider sustainability when buying fashion items

The India Saga Saga |

YouGov research has revealed the interesting facts about the Indians. As per the recently released report of YouGov, a majority of Indians think sustainable manufacturing processes are important when buying fashion products. 

The sustainable fashion movement – which thinks it is important to gear the fashion industry towards being more ecological and socially just – has gained huge media coverage in recent years. This new data shows that more than four in five people (83%) consider sustainability when buying fashion items but it is far behind other factors. 

Note: Data collected online by YouGov Profiles among around 1007 respondents in India in July 2019 using YouGov’s panel of over 6 million people worldwide. Data is representative of the adult online population in the country.

What numbers says?

The report highlighted, at present, seven in ten people (72%) in India said they have heard about sustainable fashion. From these, two in five (40%) don’t know much about it, around a fifth (19%) know but have never tried buying it and only one in eight (12%) have bought it in the past.

YouGov’s survey shows that while it is less of a motivating factor when making a fashion purchase, more than four in five (84%) people who are aware of this concept are interested in buying sustainable fashion items. However, a better design range of sustainable fashion products (64%) is the key driver in what would motivate someone to buy sustainable items, followed by competitive prices (58%) and sustainability certification on labels (56%).

What do people say?

Many people also said they are likely to purchase more sustainable products if brands highlight the benefits and impact of buying sustainable fashion products in their communication (41%) and if they give reward points for buying sustainable fashion products (41%). More than a fifth (23%) would do so if sustainable fashion becomes a new trend after being endorsed by celebrities or influencers.

Top motivators to make a purchase

These motivations work differently across different demographic groups. While the top motivators for men are competitive prices (58%), and better designs (57%), in both cases women are more likely than men to be encouraged by these factors to make a purchase (59% and 72% respectively).

Difference exits even among age groups

While a good design range motivates both millennial and GenX, the latter are more likely to be influenced by labels containing information regarding the sustainable process of manufacturing (66% vs 50%) and by cheaper prices for sustainable fashion (68% vs 53%) as compared to millennial.

Leverage Professional Networking to go beyond Leads and Referrals Business; Here’s Why

The India Saga Saga |

The past decade has seen a wave of disruptive entrepreneurship across sectors, thanks to factors like technology enhancements, pro-SME/MSME government policies, open international trade opportunities, and focus on skill development and vocational training. According to the Global Entrepreneurship Monitor (GEM) India Report 2016-17, prepared by Entrepreneurship Development Institute of India (EDI) and its associates, 11% of India’s adult population is engaged in “total early-stage entrepreneurial activity (TEA)”, which makes them first-generation business entrepreneurs.  India’s Start-up ecosystem is one of the fastest-growing in the world, with over 190 deals worth $ 4 Billion closed in just Q1 of 2019.  

However, despite the buzz and the glamorous funding opportunities, the ground realities in the sector can be quite disturbing. Being a first-generation entrepreneur or a start-up founder can be a lonely job, with various roles to juggle single-handedly. This often also leads to an overwhelming pressure of execution and micro-managing the business, and ultimately losing track of the larger goal and growth opportunities. From cash flow constraints and challenges with scalability to internal difficulties with hiring and retaining talent, competing in an almost global market, legalities and accounts, self-doubt, long-term business planning and strategy to overall business positioning and goal setting, are all extremely vital factors that need to be addressed for the business to be successful. Despite a brilliant innovation and the right mix of service and solution, most entrepreneurs and start-up have difficulty holding on to the market and eventually fail. Even the ones with a glamorous round of funding lose track of strategic growth and spend chunks of the investor money on marketing and offering discounts, eventually burning out! 

  • According to Shikhar Ghosh’s Harvard Business School study, almost 90% of start-ups and small businesses fail in 5 years
  • 75% of venture-backed start-up also fail

As if in response to the above challenges, professional networking platforms have seen a steady rise in popularity. While on the primarily are looked upon as ‘new business’ opportunities, professional networking has evolved to go much more beyond the leads and referral domain. These platforms offer entrepreneurs, start-up and SME/MSME businesses a common ground to interact, learn and grow. Apart from fellow entrepreneurs, the platforms also offer mentorship and business guidance from people in the form of success stories, case studies and learnings, which is readily shared with the group. 

Here are 5 ways how networking platforms double up as strong mentoring sources:

  1. Exchange of challenges and learnings:

Networking platforms offer a supportive environment to entrepreneurs where they can discuss the challenges they are facing or share learnings from a recent setback. These exchanges help create a sense of positivity and hope to know that the challenges are common and can be overcome, instead of being overwhelmed by trying to solve it alone.  

  1. Providing solutions:

Being a group platform, the access to different point of views and recommended solutions to problems often comes from outside the sector/ industry, and can thus be enlightening and innovative. 

  1. Right connections:

Apart from being a platform to voice out and exchange information, networking platforms also offer access to a vast network of reputed experts and people who can directly help in not just problem solving or getting new business but also to consult on varied factors of business. 

  1. Industry insights and best practices:

Apart from focusing on new businesses and solving challenges, networking platforms also offer insightful analysis of industry and economy developments, impact of governance policies and recommendations on best practices which can help an entrepreneur to tide over rough weather by leveraging group intelligence. 

We have all heard and read inspiring stories of great business leaders who owe it all to their suite of advisors and mentors. It is also a proven fact that companies with founders who are mentored by other successful entrepreneurs are three times more likely to become successful entrepreneurs themselves. However, to be a successful entrepreneur, one need not necessarily be mentored under a world-class mentor or guru. Access to the right information and a close-knit support system of fellow entrepreneurs whom one can trust, can work wonders on multiple levels. From the opportunity to forge lifelong professional friendships to gaining trusted new business referrals and access to seasoned mentors, networking, when done right, can be a vital force in the evolution of a business and the businessman!
