Actor Nayanthara apologized for offending anyone’s feelings a few days after Netflix removed the movie Annapoorni in response to user complaints. Nayanthara posted a message on social media titled “Jai Shri Ram” in Tamil, Hindi, and English. Although she acknowledged that the movie “may have inadvertently caused hurt,” she wrote that the film was intended to positively affect viewers.

Nayanthara noted that the crew did not “expect the removal of a censored film” and that the movie had previously received CBFC approval. “My team and I never intended to hurt anyone’s sentiments and we understand that this is a serious issue,” the writer stated. It is the last thing I would purposefully do, as I firmly believe in God and regularly visit temples across the nation. My deepest apologies to everyone whose sentiments we may have offended.

The protagonist of Nilesh Krishnaa’s film Annapoorni is a Brahmin woman who finds herself torn between following her passion for cooking and killing animals. There was a scene in the movie where a Hindu character offered namaz before preparing biryani, and a Muslim character talked about Lord Rama eating meat.

The film allegedly “offends Hindu religious sentiments,” leading protestors to file a formal complaint (FIR) in Mumbai against the cast and the makers. “We, as the co-producers of the film, had no intention of hurting the religious sentiments of Hindus and Brahmin communities and would like to hereby apologize for the inconvenience and hurt caused to the sentiments of the respective communities,” the co-producer Zee Studios wrote in a letter of apology in response to the FIR.

Rakesh Solanki, the founder of the Hindu IT Cell, filed a formal complaint on January 8 against the actors Nayanthara and her co-star Jai, writer-director Nilesh Krishnaa, producers Jatin Sethi, R Ravindran, and Punit Goenka, chief business officer Shariq Patel of Zee Studios, and Monika Shergill, the head of Netflix India.

On December 29, Netflix launched Annapoorni for streaming. A few weeks later, the movie was taken down from the service.

A school picnic turned tragic on Thursday when a boat capsized in a lake outside of Vadodara, Gujarat. At least 16 people were killed, 14 students and two teachers, according to police officials. The tragedy happened in the afternoon while twenty students and four teachers enjoyed a picnic and a boat ride in Harni Lake. According to the officials, a search operation was in progress to locate the missing individuals.

“So far, the tragedy has claimed the lives of 14 children and two teachers. One student who was saved is receiving treatment at SSG Hospital,” a Harni Police Station representative stated.

Soon after the incident, the Collector, Police Commissioner, Municipal Commissioner, more than 55 National Disaster Relief Fund jawans, and a Fire Brigade reached the tragic spot. According to the reports, 20 people have been rescued so far.

The Prime Minister’s office announced ₹2 lakh in ex-gratia after the accident. Regretted about the deaths caused by a boat capsize at Vadodara’s Harni Lake. My condolences go out to the families of the deceased during this time of loss. I hope the injured person heals quickly. The affected parties are receiving every support that the local government can muster. The next of kin of each deceased would receive an ex-gratia payment from PMNRF of Rs. 2 lakh. The wounded would receive Rs. fifty thousand. 

Russy Wadia, New Sunrise School’s trustee, said, “The incident happened as the boat was overloaded. Our teachers had told the people out there about it. However, they started the boat without even providing life jackets to all the students.” 

According to a senior police official, a boat turned turtle in Vadodara’s Harni Motnath Lake on Thursday, killing 14 people—including 12 schoolchildren. A case has been filed. “In Harni Motnath Lake, a boat carrying children capsized,” said Leela Patil, DCP Vadodara, in an interview with ANI. In this incident, fourteen people have perished. There is a registered case. The corpses’ post-mortem is currently in progress.

On Thursday, 18 January, the first glimpse of the idol of Lord Ram inside the sanctum sanctorum of the Ram Temple in Ayodhya was revealed. The first image of the idol, hidden behind a veil, was shown during the sanctum sanctorum placement ceremony. The Lord’s Child form was set in its designated location on Thursday after several rituals were carried out in the sanctum sanctorum during the day. All the covers have now been taken off, except his Shri Mukh. Most likely, the idol will only be fully unveiled on Pran Pratistha.

Who designed the Ram Lalla Idol?

The famous sculptor from Karnataka, Arun Yogiraj, designed the idol of Lord Ram. The idol is 51 inches tall and weighs 1.5 tonnes. The idol portrays Lord Ram as a five-year-old child standing on a lotus crafted from the same stone.

Who is the chief Yajman in Pran Prathista?

The Pran Prathita is going to happen on 22 January under the observation of seers of Kashi Peeth and Acharya Ganeshwar Dixit—the renowned member of Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Tirth Keshtra and Rashtriya Swyamsevak Sangh Dr Anil Mishra. Dr Mishar is a homoeopathic doctor and was also a part of Ram Mandir Aandolan. 

Why are Shankaracharyas skipping Ram Mandir’s inauguration?

In the meantime, Ayodhya is decked out in vivid flowers in anticipation of the magnificent ceremony. Workers hung various flowers, primarily marigolds, around the temple grounds. The “greening and beautification of the 24 km stretch along the banks of the Saryu River between Sahadatganj and Lata Chowk under National Highway 28 in Ayodhya” is being carried out by the Ayodhya Municipal Corporation.

The National Highway’s middle and embankment slopes are decorated and preserved with ornamental trees and flowers. A contractor has been hired for a five-year contract to carry out this work. The Ayodhya Municipal Corporation will supply English and Hindi language signage boards that are easy to read. 

The most awaited Pran Pratistha of Ram Temple is just three days away, and India eagerly awaits the consecration of Ram Lalla’s idol. The vibes in Ayodhya are vibrant and tempting, tempting people to come and enjoy the historical event. However, all four chiefs of Sanatan Dharma declined to join the proceedings. Seers from Dwarka and Sringeri have yet to give any particular reasons. Still, the Shankaracharya from Puri, Nischalananda Saraswati, expressed discontent, stating that as PM Modi inaugurates the temple, he does not know what he, as a seer, should do at the consecration. 

The nation was informed on January 4 by Puri Shankaracharya Nischalanda Saraswati that the four Shankaracharyas would not be present for the January 22 consecration of the Ram temple in Ayodhya. “I am aware of the dignity of my position,” he said. “When Prime Minister Narendra Modi touches the idol to inaugurate the temple, what should I do?” Get up and give a round of applause?

At the Ganga Sagar Mela in West Bengal on Saturday, January 13, the Shankaracharya of Puri reiterated his decision to turn down the invitation to attend the temple’s inauguration and explained how the scriptures were violated by dedicating a partially built temple. 

Who is Shankaracharya?

The four prominent Hindu mutts (monasteries) in Odisha, Uttarakhand, Karnataka, and Gujarat are led by the most revered Shankaracharya. These monastic orders are part of the Advaita Vedanta Sampradaya tradition of Hinduism, which was established in the eighth century by Adi Shankara. These religious leaders interpret the Hindu sacred texts, especially the Vedas. Currently, Shankaracharya Swami Shri Nischalananda Saraswati of Puri, Shankaracharya Avimukteshwaranand of Jyotir Math, Shankaracharya Bharati Teerth of Sringeri, and Shankaracharya Sadanand Saraswati of Dwarka, are holding the position of Shankaracharya.

Who was Adi Shankara?

Adi Shankara, born in Kalady, Kerala, is an 8th-century scholar-monk. Legend says a crocodile caught young Shankara. It promised to release him only if his mother allowed him to embrace life as a Hermit. After she reluctantly agreed, Shankara swam ashore, left home, and became a sanyasi. He travelled extensively, challenging philosophical traditions, establishing mathas, and preaching Advaita Vedanta.

What is Advaita Vedanta?

Advaita Vedanta, translated as “non-dualism” or “non-secondness,” is a school of Hindu philosophy and a spiritual discipline with a rich history and profound core principles. 

Here’s a breakdown and Key Concepts:

• Brahman: The ultimate reality, one, infinite, and unchanging. Think of it as the foundation of everything, the source of all existence.
• Atman: The individual self, not separate from Brahman but ultimately identical to it. Imagine it as a wave in the ocean, inseparable from the sea.
• Maya: Illusion is a misconception that creates the appearance of separation and individuality. Think of it like a mist, Blurring the true nature of reality.
• Moksha: Liberation, freedom from the cycle of birth and death, achieved through realising the non-dual nature of reality.

Central Tenets

• Brahman is the only reality: Everything else, including the individual self and the phenomenal world, is an imaginary overlay of Brahman.
• Atman is ultimately Brahman: Individuality is a temporary illusion, and releasing this identity is the key to liberation.
• Maya is not real: The world as we perceive it is not inherently real but rather a projection of our ignorance.
• Moksha is the ultimate goal: Through spiritual practice and self-knowledge, we can shed the illusion of Maya and realise our true nature as Brahman.

What is the legacy of Shankara?

• Philosophical Defence: When Buddhism and Jainism threatened the Hindu faith, Shankara’s sharp intellect and eloquent discourse countered their arguments, providing a robust philosophical foundation for Hinduism.
• Advaita Vedanta: He established Advaita Vedanta as a dominant school of thought, offering a clear and compelling interpretation of the Vedas and Upanishads, emphasising the non-dual nature of reality.
• Monastic Institutions: To preserve and propagate his teachings, Shankara established four monastic institutions (mathas) in different corners of India – Badrinath, Dwarka, Puri, and Sringeri. These mathas continue to thrive today, serving as learning and spiritual practice centres.
• Devotional Hymns: He composed over 300 hymns known as stotras, expressing profound love and reverence for various deities, particularly Shiva.

Switzerland’s Davos 2024: World Economic Forum attendees find the WeLead Lounge, a repurposed storefront showcasing India’s female leadership and talent, along the Davos Promenade. The India Engagement Center is another location highlighting India’s development narrative, digital infrastructure, and developing startup scene.

Indian giants in consulting and technology At the forum, Wipro, Infosys, Tata, and HCLTech are well-represented to showcase the country’s proficiency in vital technologies. One of them is artificial intelligence, a subject that is currently gaining a lot of attention.

In front of some of the wealthiest and most influential individuals on the planet, India is promoting its expanding prowess as an innovative nation and a global centre for business.

“India’s footprint is undoubtedly substantial — it possesses some of the most coveted locations on the main promenade for technology companies,” Foreign Policy editor-in-chief and former head of the CNN India bureau Ravi Agrawal stated to CNBC during the Davos conference. India’s comparatively quick growth is a clear opportunity for investors in Davos searching for bright spots as China’s economy slows down.

China’s GDP grew 5.2% in the previous year, up from 3% in 2022 but down from 8.1% in the year before. India’s GDP shrank to 7.2% in the most recent fiscal year from slightly over 9% in the previous one. India has been making more of an effort to position itself as a more powerful player in business and technology globally. 

What are the numerous challenges that India faces? 

According to data from the World Bank, more people migrate out of India than into it most years. Net migration exceeded 300,000 in 2021. Meanwhile, pressured by high U.S. interest rates and volatile oil prices, the rupee has severely declined relative to the dollar.

The International Trade Administration lists “price sensitivity” among consumers and businesses as one of the main risks associated with conducting business in India.

“As always, the question is whether India can genuinely facilitate business there and whether domestic consumers there can spend enough to justify sustained foreign investment”

– Agrawal stated

Davos 2024: A significant year for India

In other respects, this will be a landmark year for India. A general election is scheduled for April or May, with Modi running for reelection.

Significant American tech firms like Alphabet, Meta, and Amazon have placed substantial bets on India during Modi’s presidency. In 2014, Amazon made $2 billion in investments in the nation; in 2016, the company earned $3 billion more. Flipkart was an online retailer that Walmart purchased for $16 billion in 2018.

2020 saw Meta invest $5.7 billion in Jio, the Reliance Industries digital division under Ambani. Google then invested $4.5 billion in the business. With the U.S. spearheading an effort to isolate the second-largest economy in the world, especially about access to critical technology, China has been facing increasing difficulties on the global scene as India has grown.

Beijing has been unable to import some of the most cutting-edge chips from American companies like AMD, Intel, and Nvidia for months. President and founder of Eurasia Group Ian Bremmer told CNBC that India has an excellent chance to grow more robust because it is a democracy.

“India has a stable government and a well-liked leader, which is a plus,” Bremmer stated. “There will be a free, fair, and uncontroversial election soon. And they are increasing. He said he could see states in the United States adopting a similar strategy.

“It’s not inconceivable to me that individual U.S. states would decide to do the same thing at Davos in five years,” he remarked. If Texas had a shop in Davos this year, they would be soaking up renewable energy and fossil fuels. And, to be honest, California would too.

“Main Atal Hoon,” a deep exploration of the life of former prime minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee is promised. The late leader’s political career will be included in the story.

“The leader you know but the man you didn’t” is the opening line of the 3:37-minute trailer. The first scene shows Pankaj Tripathi back in his office while he is being informed by a second person that Kargil is in danger and that things have gotten worse. This establishes the movie’s mood.

There are brief glimpses of numerous significant political occasions that have influenced the nation throughout the trailer. It will chronicle the experiences of Atal Bihari Vajpayee during the Emergency, Ramjanmabhoomi, Pokhran, the Lahore Bus Yatra, Kargil, and the establishment of the Bharatiya Janta Party.

Fighter Review: Trailer Shows Hrithik Roshan at His Best!

There are a lot of solid lines in the trailer that attempt to make a point. Still, Pankaj Tripathi’s poor character portrayal makes it impossible to ignore. If not for the prosthetics, it would have seemed he was portraying a different character in one of his films, one in which he is a middle-class family patriarch. Sadly, the versatile actor has failed his character and himself by bringing the baritone and accent from his prior roles into this one.

Pramod Mahajan, Arun Jaitley, and Sushma Swaraj are also introduced in the trailer. These characters, along with others, seem to have the personality of a cardboard box at best. They need to be given the necessary depth or subtlety in their portrayal. The Bharatiya Janta Party is discussed in the movie, but the prime minister of the day is left out. The narrative

It is focused on retelling the well-known story of Nehru and Indira Gandhi to highlight Vajpayee’s political views. There are also images in the trailer that serve as a reminder of historical events in the nation.

Ravi Jadhav, who has won National Awards for his Marathi work, is the film’s director. The movie “Main Atal Hoon” will open in theatres on January 19, 2024.

Akasa Air and Noida International Airport have partnered strategically. As part of their strategic alliance, Akasa Air anticipates that UP will play a significant role in the Indian air traffic market.

The co-founder and chief commercial officer of Akasa Air, Praveen Iyer, commented on the development, saying, “There is a lot of unmet demand for air travel in the North of India. Akasa Air would like to be more visible at the recent airports built in India.”

The chief executive officer of Noida International Airport, Christoph Schnellmann, stated: “We are thrilled about our new strategic alliance with Akasa Air. The new airport is almost ready to open, and in 2024, construction will pick up speed.”

He also mentioned that NIA anticipates serving 12 million passengers during the airport’s phase-I construction.

India to aim for at least 7% growth in FY25.

On Thursday, the largest civil aviation show in Asia, Wings India 2024, got underway at Hyderabad’s Begumpet airport. The Airports Authority of India (AAI) and Federation of Indian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (FICCI) representatives were present at the event’s opening, which was also attended by Telangana Minister for Roads, Buildings, and Cinematography Komatireddy Venkat Reddy, Union Minister for Civil Aviation Jyotiraditya Scindia, and Minister of State for Civil Aviation General V.K. Singh.

Business executives and aviation enthusiasts nationwide attended the expo on its first day. Upon invitation, guests were able to tour a variety of aircraft following the formal inauguration. Simultaneously, the business-oriented portion of the program took place, enhanced by visually stunning aerial displays on the airport runway.

After IndiGo, Akasa is the second airline to declare that it will operate out of Noida International Airport.

According to a January edition of the RBI’s monthly bulletin, the goal for the 2024–2025 fiscal year should be to maintain the current growth rate by achieving real GDP growth of at least 7%.

As of March 31, 2024, the current fiscal year, the RBI has projected a real GDP growth of 7%. The National Statistical Office (NSO) published the first advance estimate earlier this month, predicting 7.3% growth in the national economy for the current fiscal year. In Davos on Wednesday, RBI Governor Shaktikanta Das predicted that India’s GDP would grow by 7% in 2024–2025.

While the difference is small, potential output in India is beginning to rise while actual output still exceeds it. According to the RBI article, maintaining this momentum in 2024–2025 should be the goal of achieving real GDP growth of at least 7% in a macroeconomically stable environment. Thus, by the anticipated second quarter of the year, inflation must match the target and become fixed there, the report stated.

The government requires the RBI to maintain the CPI between two and six per cent. According to year-over-year fluctuations in the consumer price index (CPI) for all of India, headline inflation increased slightly from 5.6% in November 2022 to 5.7% in December 2023. The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) projects the CPI to print at 5.4% for the fiscal year 2024–25. The first quarter of Q1FY25 is expected to see 5.2% CPI inflation, followed by Q2’s 4% and Q3’s 4.7%.

Union Budget 2024: Policy Nudge for the Power Sector is Coming

During his Davos speech, Das stated that he anticipated an average CPI inflation rate of roughly 4.5% in FY 2024–2025.

According to the RBI’s most recent Financial Stability Report (FSR), which was made public last month, in September 2023, the percentage of banks’ gross non-performing assets (GNPAs) fell to a multi-year low of 3.2%, while the percentage of their net non-performing assets (NNPAs) dropped to 0.8%.

According to the article, the benefits of the revolutionary technological shift must be maximized for inclusive and participatory growth in a safe, risk-free environment.

It stated that “the corporate sector, augmented by foreign direct investment, must partner and even lead the virtuous thrust to investment from government capex.”
