    Rathi Steel And Power Limited Q2 FY26 Revenues Grows 28.39% & EBIDTA Grows 14.77% (YOY)

    New Delhi [India], November 15: Rathi Steel And Power Limited (BSE –504903), one of the leading players in stainless steel long products and TMT bars, has announced its Unaudited Financial Results for Q2 FY26.

    Key Financial Highlights Q2

    • Total Income of ₹156.43 Cr, YoY growth of 28.39%
    • EBITDA* of ₹6.37 Cr, YoY growth of 14.77%
    • Net Profit** of ₹1.63 Cr, compared to ₹6.94 Cr in Q2 FY25
    • EBIDTA includes other income
    • Net profit for Q2FY25 includes an Exceptional item of Rs. 4.71 Crores

    Commenting on the financial performance, Mr Mahesh Pareek, Managing Director of Rathi Steel and Power Limited, said, “We reported consolidated revenue of ₹156.43 Cr and net profit of ₹1.63 Cr in Q2 FY26, reflecting stable operational performance amid steady demand from infrastructure/ construction and our B to B customers from the stainless steel Space. The quarter demonstrated continued strength in stainless steel products, supported by efficiency gains from integrated manufacturing and disciplined cost control. Alongside, there has been a steady ramping up of the recommenced TMT bars facility.

    The Indian steel industry maintained positive momentum during the quarter, with strong government infrastructure spending and steady housing demand driving domestic consumption. However, global uncertainties and rising imports have been affecting the steel sector. Rising use of stainless steel in construction, railways, and renewable projects continues to create structural opportunities for value-added products, and is also slowly negating the impact of an excessive domestic supply created mainly on account of a couple of companies acquired under IBC, operating in a similar space.

    We remain focused on increasing the growth momentum of TMT bars by creating value through manufacturing steel using the recycling / circular economy route, which we believe will have greater demand preference going forward. Alongside, we remain focused on improving capacity utilisation and enhancing margins through process optimisation/product mix improvement in the stainless steel space. With a robust balance sheet and a clear strategic roadmap, Rathi Steel and Power is well-positioned for sustainable growth in the coming quarters.”

  • Pavasiya family’s unique initiative brings joy to orphaned children on Children’s Day

    Pavasiya family’s unique initiative brings joy to orphaned children on Children’s Day

    Games, dance, food, and gifts light up the smiles of 180 children

    Surat (Gujarat) [India], November 15: The legendary hotelier Umesh Pavasiya had once again invited Children’s Day with children who are orphans in the city as part of the tradition that has now become an annual obligation, and he organised a series of heart-warming events with the children.

    The humanitarian activity arranged under the theme of Share Happiness, Spread Love and ended in making the day memorable to 180 children of different orphanages in Surat.

    The celebrations were initiated in the afternoon at the Oran Restaurant and in the evening at Spice Villa and Pavilion Restaurant. The kids were dancing, playing games and participating in various interactive activities, which made the venues full of laughter and excitement. There was a specially created menu to be used during the event, and each child was provided with a gift and a memorable meal.

    When hotelier Umesh, who is also known as Pavasiya, spoke about the initiative, he said that this event is not just about a day but it is also about bringing happiness in the lives of these orphan children. It is very good that many visit orphanages and offer some help or even meals. Nevertheless, we have such a platform as a restaurant, so I am very happy to put it to social good. Being a company that is in a close bond with the community, we are proud of being the one to unite people and give back to society.

    This project demonstrates the feeling of responsibility and compassion of Pavasiya Hospitality, and we hope other people will also take up the initiative to help the poor children. A little gesture of kindness can transform a person, even change his life, he thought.

    The event was again an indication of the way the Pavasiya family gives back to society and makes them happy where it counts most.

Our strategy remains firmly focused on disciplined expansion, operational excellence, and enhancing our eco-responsible luxury offerings. We remain confident in delivering sustainable long-term growth and creating enduring value for all stakeholders.”

Conceptualised as a narrative of Mangalore’s growth and spirit, “From Port to Pride” reflected how history, trade, and community together defined the city’s journey from a coastal harbour to a global maritime hub.

    Speaking on the occasion, Dr A. V. Ramanna, Chairman, NMPA, said:

    “This exhibition beautifully captured the essence of Mangalore – its history, resilience, and progress. As we celebrated 50 years of the Port, we also celebrated the people and stories that made it possible from Rani Abbakka’s courage to the enterprise of our cashew workers. The journey from the first vessel in 1975 to today’s world-class port truly reflected Mangalore’s spirit of pride.”

    Rev. Fr. Praveen Martis, SJ, Vice-Chancellor, St. Aloysius (Deemed to be) University, added:

    “Mangalore’s story is one of inspiration where courage, commerce, and community come together. This exhibition was a wonderful initiative that not only honoured our past but also encouraged participation and creativity among people of all ages.”

  • When Myth Meets Malice — Kaal Trighori Rises With Spine-Chilling Ambition

    When Myth Meets Malice — Kaal Trighori Rises With Spine-Chilling Ambition

    Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], November 15: The long-whispered legend of Kaal Trighori has finally stepped off the periphery of social media teasers and into the glaring lights of the big screen. This November 14 release, under Navin Productions LLP, is not just another horror thriller — it’s a brooding tapestry of cosmic dread, age-old curses, and haunted psyches. Directed with measured intent by Nitin Vaidya, and propped up by a formidable ensemble — Arbaaz Khan, Rituparna Sengupta, Aditya Srivastava, and Mahesh Manjrekar — Kaal Trighori is being billed as a genre-defining effort in the pantheon of Bollywood fright-fests.

    An Ancient Curse, Cosmic Horror, and a Rare Alignment

    At its heart, Kaal Trighori is built around a singular, chilling premise — a rare cosmic alignment, which, as the director revealed, actually had parallels in real life. In April 2022, the world witnessed an unusual astronomical event that reportedly triggered unexplained incidents in various corners of the globe. Vaidya weaves this real-life phenomenon into a fictional narrative, conjuring a mythic force — Trighori — born during an ominous lunar convergence that occurs only once every hundred years.

    The motion poster teases this haunting mythos with the line:

    “Three nights waited a hundred years … to give birth to the Trighori.”
    And yes — the tagline doesn’t hold back: “Some myths are real.”

    The Cast: A Collision of Talent and Terror

    What makes Kaal Trighori truly compelling is its deeply layered cast:

    • Arbaaz Khan plays Manoj — a character tempered with ambiguity, a far cry from his earlier cinematic personae. According to him, this is “quite distinct from any role I’ve previously portrayed … I don’t think I’ve ever truly participated in a proper horror film.”
    • Rituparna Sengupta, as Madhuri, brings emotional gravitas. She’s spoken about spending intense hours with Vaidya to perfect her expressions of fear, body language, and those subtle psychological ticks.
    • Aditya Srivastava anchors the narrative’s spiritual and ritualistic core as Raviraj, while Mahesh Manjrekar, Rajesh Sharma, and Mugdha Godse round off the haunting ensemble.

    Production & Atmosphere: Gothic, Subtle, Bone-Chilling

    Unlike many Bollywood horror films that lean heavily into jump scares, Kaal Trighori is crafted with an old-school sensibility. The production design deserves special mention — a decaying haveli, rocking chairs, a voodoo doll chained in shadowy corners — all come together to build tension slowly, deliberately. The cinematography (by Kush Chhabria) and the haunting score by Amar Mohile elevate the dread, making it feel like something ancient is creeping into the corners of everyday life.

    The film also reportedly sprinkles in psychological horror, not just supernatural theatrics — giving it a more lingering, unsettling quality than many of its peers.

    What Works — and What Might Not

    The Strengths:

    1. Layered Writing & Mythos: Drawing from a “once-in-a-century” cosmic event gives the film a rare narrative weight.
    2. Performances: Arbaaz and Rituparna’s commitment to their characters pays off. Their fear, vulnerability, and confusion feel earned rather than performative.
    3. Atmospheric Horror: The slow burn approach — minimal cheap scares, more psychological tension — makes every quiet corner feel dangerous.
    4. Visual & Musical Design: From the ravaged mansion to the creeping voodoo doll, the film’s production values lend it a gothic heft.

    The Weaknesses:

    • Pacing Risks: A slow burn is a double-edged sword. While many praise the tension, others might find it too languid, especially if they came in expecting an adrenaline-fuelled horror rollercoaster.
    • Genre Expectations vs Reality: Some fans, after watching the teaser, voiced disappointment — suggesting the horror wasn’t “horrific enough.”
    • Ambiguity Overload: The very ambiguity that Arbaaz lauds in his role may not land with every viewer. If the film leans too much into cosmic allegory, it risks alienating audiences who want more concrete scares.

    Context and Backstory: Why Kaal Trighori Matters

    This isn’t just another film in Arbaaz Khan’s resume. According to his filmography, Kaal Trighori marks a rare foray into the horror-thriller genre for him.  For Rituparna, too, the project signals a bold step — a chance to stretch into unexplored emotional and mythic terrains.

    Production is spearheaded by Shirish Vaidya, Nitin Ghataliya, and Mansukh Talsaniya, with Rahul Vaidya as the executive producer. The film is being distributed by PEN Marudhar, a company that’s been steadily building a reputation for backing more experimental, edge-of-genre films.

    The creative team didn’t simply rely on horror tropes — the plot is grounded in both folklore and an actual astronomical event, giving the terror a strangely plausible backbone.

    But Wait — There’s More

    Promotional strategy has leaned heavily into the mythic and the visual: a voodoo doll chained in shadows, cryptic rituals, and a black cat — all teased in social media motion posters and the trailer. Buzz around the first song, “Mantra Aavahan”, is growing; its impending release suggests that the makers are betting big on the audio haunting to hook audiences.

    The PR Spin (Yes, That’s Dinner for Me)

    Here’s where the PR has been doing its homework — Kaal Trighori is not being sold merely as a horror movie, but as a mythic event. They’re packaging it like a rare celestial omen, not just for the characters but for the audience too: three “cursed nights,” once-in-a-century horrors, ancestral spirits, and a daddy-long-legs of a voodoo doll. It’s cinematic marketing with just enough occult seduction to make you check under your bed tonight.

    The makers have leaned into real phenomena and folklore, which gives their horror a veneer of legitimacy. That is smart — especially in a market where horror films often flop because audiences treat them as half-baked jump-scare machines. Kaal Trighori seems to want to be remembered not just for its screams, but for its story.

    The Elephant in the Room: Box Office, Budget & Reality Check

    Here’s the rub: publicly available sources have not confirmed any official budget or box office targets yet — which is not uncommon for more niche Bollywood thrillers. As of now, there’s no verified data on how much was spent on production or how much Kaal Trighori has earned. (If you were expecting trade tracker numbers, they’ve not been made widely available.)

    That said, harnessing a cast of this caliber and building elaborate sets — e.g., a 1930s-style haveli — suggests the makers haven’t cut corners. Their ambition seems high, and clearly, their bet is on building a horror IP, not just cashing in on a weekend spike.

    Final Verdict: A Haunting Gamble That Could Pay Off

    If Kaal Trighori delivers even half of what it promises in its trailer and marketing — cosmic weirdness, emotional turbulence, an ancient myth brought to life — it could well become a cult entry in modern Indian horror. It’s not exactly play-it-safe popcorn scare fare. Instead, it feels like a dark incantation — a film that wants you to sit with your unease, to feel rather than flinch.

    Yes, it risks being too slow, too cerebral, too ambiguous. But if the performances hold, if the tension is maintained, and if Vaidya’s vision lands — this could be exactly the kind of horror film that gives Bollywood a new kind of myth-making power.

    After all, in a world where “some myths are real,” Kaal Trighori dares to ask: Which ones are dead — and which ones are just sleeping, waiting for the stars to align?
