Gurugram(Haryana) [India], October 31: As the world marks World Pneumonia Day (November 12) and World COPD Day (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, November 19), Nutribray, a pioneering Indian infant nutrition manufacturer, draws critical attention to a foundational message: the journey to healthy pulmonary function begins in infancy.
Nutribray is setting a new national standard with the launch of India’s first Hypoallergenic Infant Formulas specifically, an Amino Acid Formula (AAF) and an Extensively Hydrolyzed Formula (EHF). This specialized segment, previously dominated almost exclusively by multinational corporations with few, if any, Indian alternatives, is now seeing a significant market shift.
These products are meticulously crafted for infants with cow’s milk protein allergy or severe digestive sensitivities. Crucially, Nutribray is committed to providing this world-class quality at a price point that is significantly more economical than comparable international brands. This makes advanced, allergy-safe nutrition accessible to a much broader base of Indian parents.
“Optimal, accessible nutrition is the cornerstone of lifelong health,” stated a Nutribray spokesperson. “In a market where specialized infant formulas are often prohibitively expensive, we are proud to be an Indian company delivering a science-backed, high-quality, and cost-effective solution. By providing infants with the precise support they need from an early age, we can help build their resilience against infections and contribute to better lifelong respiratory health, without placing an undue financial burden on families.”
Specialized Nutrition That Helps Babies Breathe Easy
Clinical research frequently links early-life immune dysfunction and allergic sensitization to an elevated risk of subsequent respiratory complications. Nutribray’s AAF and EHF are specifically engineered to mitigate these risks.
These advanced formulas utilize hydrolyzed or amino acid-based proteins, which are broken down into their simplest, most digestible forms. This significantly reduces the likelihood of allergic reactions and the associated inflammatory response. By minimizing systemic inflammation, the formulas aid in strengthening the immune system and supporting healthy respiratory tract development. In essence, this is nutrition that is gentle for the gut and foundational for the lungs.
Made in India, Affordable, and Trusted for Quality
Nutribray’s hypoallergenic infant formulas are proudly manufactured in India and adhere to stringent international safety and quality benchmarks. Every production batch undergoes rigorous testing to guarantee purity, precise nutritional balance, and optimal digestibility for infants requiring specialized care.
With this innovation, Nutribray is not just introducing a product; it is addressing a critical public need by offering a safe, reliable, and economically viable alternative to expensive imported products. Nutribray is empowering Indian parents with access to a world-class specialized nutritional solution, made right at home.
Spreading Awareness: —-BreatheBetterIndia
This November, Nutribray’s —– BreatheBetterIndia campaign directly aligns with global awareness efforts for pneumonia and COPD. The initiative encourages parents and pediatric healthcare professionals to acknowledge and act on the critical link between early-life nutrition and the prevention of future respiratory challenges, emphasizing a child’s overall immune strength.
“Our goal is simple: to give every child in India the healthy start they deserve. Every healthy breath has its foundation in good nutrition, and that nutrition must be accessible to all,” the spokesperson concluded.
About Nutribray
Nutribray is a dedicated Indian manufacturer of infant nutrition products, committed to providing safe, science-backed, and allergy-friendly formulas(specialized formulas for sensitive babies) that support healthy growth and robust immunity in babies. By focusing on innovation, quality, and affordability, Nutribray helps shape a healthier future naturally.
UIBC-UC’s Faizal Kottikollon meets with the Kashmir CM – Meeting follows inauguration of DREAM School and launch of Indo-UAE education paper in Srinagar
Srinagar (Jammu & Kashmir) [India], October 31: Mr. Faizal E. Kottikollon, Dubai-based entrepreneur, philanthropist, and Chairman of the UAE India Business Council – UAE Chapter (UIBC-UC), along with Kshitij Korde, Head of Corporate Affairs, UIBC-UC, called on the Hon’ble Chief Minister of Jammu & Kashmir, Shri Omar Abdullah, in a landmark meeting that brought together leadership and vision.
This meeting was held on the sidelines of two key events in Srinagar – the inauguration of the transformed Middle School Block at Government Girls Higher Secondary School (GGHSS) Kothibagh, and the launch of a UIBC-UC research paper, “Bridging Horizons: UAE-India Partnership and the Future of Education-led Development.”
These events collectively underscore the growing momentum of Indo-UAE collaboration in social development, particularly in education and healthcare. The Chief Minister lauded the DREAM School initiative of the Faizal & Shabana Foundation (FSF), describing it as “a shining example of what visionary philanthropy and government partnership can achieve.”
The Kothibagh DREAM School, initiated following Mr. Kottikollon’s 2023 visit to Srinagar as part of a UIBC-UC delegation, stands as a testament to his steadfast commitment since that landmark year, a commitment that has continued to shape and strengthen Indo-UAE socio-developmental cooperation.
Chief Minister Omar Abdullah recently said, “No amount of infrastructure development, be it roads, power projects, or commercial complexes, can substitute for quality healthcare and education. These are the true pillars of J&K’s progress and prosperity.”
Mr Kottikollon also presented the Chief Minister with a copy of the research paper launched earlier and a copy of “Opening Gateways – Tourism Opportunities India-UAE,” a visually stunning coffee table book celebrating the growing tourism ties between India and the UAE. Jammu and Kashmir is highlighted in the book as a tourism magnet for the country, with the untapped potential of human capital development in J&K mentioned in the paper.
Mr. Kottikollon, whose foundation has transformed over 900 schools across India under its PRISM framework, expressed gratitude for the Chief Minister’s support and reaffirmed his long-term commitment to J&K’s development.
“It was an honour to call on the Hon’ble Chief Minister and seek his guidance on strengthening the Indo-UAE corridor,” said Mr. Kottikollon. “Education and healthcare are not just priorities but bridges that connect communities and create lasting impact.”
The meeting also explored new avenues of collaboration, including the proposed 40 K–12 school transformation program across J&K and a potential partnership to upgrade existing government healthcare institutions, aligning with the region’s focus on patient safety and holistic wellness.
Mr. Kottikollon also invited the Chief Minister to lead a J&K delegation to the UAE to further
dialogue on cross-border investment and knowledge exchange, whilst also extending a special invitation to visit Tulah Wellness Sanctuary, his integrative wellness venture in Kerala.
The school opening in Srinagar, where Lt. Governor Shri Manoj Sinha was chief guest, was attended by members of the UIBC-UC delegation and marks a significant milestone in Indo-UAE cooperation, showcasing how public-private partnerships can transform the educational and social landscape of Jammu & Kashmir.

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], October 30: Let’s face it: when a show like The Witcher announces a seismic shift — new lead actor, revamped tone, and one of the biggest budgets in streaming history — the expectations don’t just arrive… they storm the castle. Season 4’s arrival on Netflix (October 30, 2025), with Liam Hemsworth replacing Henry Cavill as Geralt of Rivia, is that very invasion.
And yes — the wild thing is, this new season almost delivers a fresh, gleaming version of the Continent. But “almost” is the operative word.
The High Stakes & What’s At Play
The narrative foundation remains anchored in Andrzej Sapkowski’s books (via adaptation), centring on Geralt, Ciri and Yennefer contending with war, monsters and destiny. Season 4, as announced, begins the arc that will conclude in Seasons 4 and 5.
Behind the scenes, the stakes soared: industry estimates suggest an eye-watering budget of approximately US$221 million (≈ US$27 million per episode) for Season 4 alone, bringing the franchise’s cumulative budget to an estimated US$720 million+. It’s not hyperbole to say Netflix has bet big here.
From a PR-lens, Hemsworth stepping in is positioned as a “refresh” — a new energy injected into the series, with showrunner Lauren Schmidt Hissrich promising tonal evolution: equal parts brooding darkness and dry humour.
What Works — And What Wins Over
Fresh Charm & Energy: Hemsworth brings a lighter layer to Geralt’s stoicism. Fans of the show’s earlier grimness might raise an eyebrow, but there’s something energising in the slight tonal tweak. He acknowledges the enormity of taking over the role and admits the initial fan noise got to him.
Production Value Unleashed: With that mammoth budget, the visuals are lush — creatures feel more menacing, the Continent’s landscapes more expansive, and the editing sharper. If you’re watching for spectacle, you’ll find it.
Narrative Re-Configuration: Season 4 uses the recasting as a narrative pivot-point rather than just a cosmetic change. The separation of Ciri, Geralt and Yennefer at the end of Season 3 sets up a structural fresh start rather than just “same old, new face”.
The Cracks in the Armour — And They’re Visible
Fan Loyalty Tested: Cavill’s departure left a vacuum of goodwill. While Hemsworth handles the assignment with professionalism, many viewers still struggle with the change. That nostalgia-hangover eats at the immersion.
Cost Doesn’t Guarantee Cohesion: A high budget can mask flaws, but it can’t rewrite them. Some story threads feel rushed or shoe-horned to accommodate the “big franchise move” rather than let the narrative breathe.
Tone Shift = Risk: The promise of injecting levity is admirable, but in a world that previously thrived on bleakness, even a slight misstep in tone can tip the balance from “rich dark fantasy” into “gloom with awkward laughs.”
Pacing & Expectation Pressure: With the finish line in sight (Season 5 will wrap the saga), there’s a sense of “let’s hurry up and get to the big battles” rather than luxuriating in character arcs. Some fans feel that urgency spoils the slow burn.
Latest Buzz & Fan Reactions
Hemsworth’s own comments resonate: stepping into the role meant silencing social media to avoid the “noise” of comparison.
Reports suggest that the cost increase is part of what the producers hope will restore faith in the series — perhaps responding to critiques of Seasons 2 & 3.
On the other side, there’s rumbling that some fan-films or smaller-budget productions evoke a stronger emotional core than expensive spectacle. One commentary candidly noted: “a low-budget YouTube Witcher fan film… captures the vibe better than the Netflix show in my opinion.”
PR-Delivery With a Wink
Dear Witcher-faithful and Continent-curious alike: buckle in. Season 4 arrives as a well-produced, polished chapter that knows it’s part of something big. If you’ve ever wondered what Geralt might look like when the sequel cast finally took over the saga, the answer’s here — new actor, new mood, same monsters.
But yes — that new mood is both the charm and the caution. Because when you invest hundreds of millions and hand the baton to a new lead, you’re also saying: “Don’t only trust us because it looks shiny. Trust us because the story still matters.”
And to its credit, this season tries to deliver. It’s not flawless. The cracks of transition show. But if you remember why you came to the show — monster fights, moral ambiguity, a vice-like trio (Geralt, Yennefer, Ciri) welded by destiny — then this chapter is worth your time.
Final takeaway? If you were preparing for the same old but expected something bold, you got both. A high-end fantasy spectacle; a franchise in flux. Whether it completely convinces will depend on patience, openness to change, and your willingness to ride the next phase of the Witcher saga.
Final Verdict
Score: 7/10 (or “solidly good with big ambitions”) Should you watch? Absolutely — but not with the same expectations as previous seasons. Enter as a fresh chapter, not just a continuation. Budget reminder: With estimates of ~US$27 million per episode, the stakes have never been higher. Bottom line: Season 4 of The Witcher is a grand gesture — one that mostly lands. The narrative shakes off some old shadows, but the shadows still linger.

New Delhi [India], October 31:Every October, Breast Cancer Awareness Month serves as a powerful reminder of the importance of early detection, timely treatment, and emotional resilience in the journey against cancer. This year, the conversation goes deeper — beyond medicine and into meaning. “Finding My Why” is about discovering the personal purpose that fuels strength, courage, and hope throughout the battle. From oncologists to survivors and advocates, experts share what drives them to keep fighting, innovating, and supporting others in their mission to defeat breast cancer — one story, one purpose, and one life at a time.
Dr. Amish Vora, MBBS, MD, DNB, DM (Medical Oncology), Director – HOPE Oncology Clinic, New Delhi
Cancer is not just a disease of the body — it deeply affects the mind and spirit. From the moment of diagnosis, patients often experience fear, anxiety, sadness, and uncertainty about the future. These emotions are completely natural, yet they often go unspoken. Mental health plays a crucial role in recovery — when the mind is supported, the body heals better. As a Medical Oncologist, I believe true healing happens when emotional well-being is cared for alongside medical treatment. Through counselling, compassion, and continuous support, we aim to help every patient find strength, peace, and hope — because fighting cancer is not just a physical battle, it’s an emotional journey too.
Keep a simple happiness mantra— heal the body, calm the mind & nurture the soul.
Dr. Irfan Bashir, MBBS, DNB, Fellowship St. Christopher (London), Senior Consultant & HOD Radiation Oncology, Chairman-Radiation Safety Committee, Batra Hospital, New Delhi
Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers affecting women worldwide, but early detection and timely treatment can make a life-saving difference. Awareness about regular screening, self-examination, and healthy lifestyle choices is essential to reduce the risk and improve outcomes. Women above the age of 40 are encouraged to undergo regular mammograms and clinical breast exams. However, awareness should begin much earlier. Every woman should learn how to perform a monthly self-breast examination to identify any unusual lumps, changes in size, shape, or skin texture. Early identification of these warning signs can lead to quicker diagnosis and better chances of recovery. Maintaining a balanced diet, exercising regularly, limiting alcohol consumption, and avoiding smoking can also help lower the risk. Emotional and social support for those diagnosed is equally important in their healing journey. Breast Cancer Awareness Month, observed every October, serves as a reminder that knowledge, vigilance, and support can save countless lives. Let us all spread awareness, encourage regular check-ups, and stand by those fighting this disease. Together, we can make a difference—because early detection truly saves lives.
Dr. Sachin Kadam, Consultant Oncosurgeon, Mumbai
Every October, a wave of pink—ribbons, lights, and campaigns—reminds us of breast cancer awareness. Yet, Breast Cancer Awareness Month 2025 is not just about wearing pink; it’s about changing perspectives. This year’s theme, “Every Story is Unique, Every Journey Matters,” shifts the focus from awareness to empowerment, from fear to proactive care, and from silence to open conversations. Breast cancer is not merely a disease—it’s a story that touches families, friends, and communities. The power to change that story lies not only in hospitals or laboratories but also in our choices, conversations, and vigilance.
Medicine today has advanced beyond detection to personalized oncology, genetic testing, and targeted therapy—helping identify risks earlier and treat cancers more effectively. Yet, science depends on one simple act: early attention. Recognizing changes, consulting a doctor, and regular screenings remain our strongest tools.
This October, let’s ensure awareness becomes action—because early detection is a lifeline. Together, our commitment, compassion, and courage can turn the pink ribbon into a true symbol of responsibility and hope.
Dr. Sneha Jha, DMRT, DNB (Radiation Oncology), HOD and Senior Consultant at Meherbai Tata Memorial Hospital, Jamshedpur
Every woman’s battle with breast cancer is a story of courage, faith, and resilience. At MTMH, we see every journey as unique — each patient inspiring us with her strength and determination. Breast cancer is not just a medical condition; it is a deeply emotional journey that unites patients, families, and doctors in the shared hope of healing and recovery. This Breast Cancer Awareness Month, we, the doctors of MTMH, Jamshedpur, led by Dr. Sneha Jha, salute every warrior who has faced or continues to face this challenge. We honour the survivors, support those in treatment, and remember those we have lost. Together, let’s continue spreading awareness, encouraging early detection, and offering compassion and care to all. Because every story deserves to be heard, and every journey truly matters.
Dr. B. Ravi Shankar, MD (CMC Vellore), DNB (RT), MRCP, ECMO (Medical Oncology), FESTRO (Radiation Oncology), PDCR, OCTT, MBA, Managing Director – Practicing at Visakhapatnam
October marks Breast Cancer Awareness Month, a global campaign dedicated to raising awareness, promoting early detection, and supporting those affected by breast cancer. The 2025 theme, “Every Story is Unique, Every Journey Matters,” reminds us that behind every diagnosis lies a deeply personal story of courage, resilience, and hope. Breast cancer remains the most diagnosed cancer among women worldwide—with 2.3 million new cases and 670,000 lives lost in 2022. These are not just numbers but represent mothers, daughters, sisters, and friends. While survival rates in high-income countries exceed 90%, they fall sharply in low- and middle-income regions due to disparities in access to care. The WHO Global Breast Cancer Initiative aims to bridge this gap through equitable access and stronger health systems. Awareness, therefore, becomes the first step toward prevention—because regular screenings, self-examinations, and timely consultations can save countless lives. My “why” in the fight against cancer is rooted in empathy and action. I believe no one should face this journey alone. I have witnessed how early detection transforms outcomes, and I stand with survivors, caregivers, and researchers in turning awareness into action—because together, we can save lives.
Dr. Chintan Safi, MBBS, MS, DNB, Fellowship in Minimally Invasive GI Surgery, Consultant – Robotic and Laparoscopic Surgical Oncologist, Ahmedabad
Dr. Chintan Safi is a distinguished consultant in robotic and laparoscopic surgical oncology, with a specialization in minimally invasive techniques for cancer care. He has trained and worked at leading centres including Tata Memorial Hospital (Mumbai) and holds extensive experience in frontier surgical oncology approaches.
With a commitment to transforming patient outcomes, Dr Safi emphasises the importance of identifying a deeply personal “why” in the fight against cancer. He encourages patients and caregivers alike to turn their struggle into a purpose-driven journey—not only fighting the disease, but empowering themselves through that process.
This Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Dr Safi highlights that finding one’s “why” becomes a catalyst for resilience, informed decision-making and purposeful action. By aligning medical care with personal meaning, he believes patients can navigate the challenges of diagnosis, treatment and beyond with greater clarity, strength and hope.
October marks Breast Cancer Awareness Month 2025, a time to reflect on the courage, resilience, and determination of those affected by breast cancer. Dr. Ankur Prakash, a leading oncologist and advocate for women’s health, emphasizes the importance of finding “my why”—the personal motivation that drives patients, caregivers, and healthcare providers in the fight against cancer. Every patient’s journey is unique, and understanding one’s purpose in this journey can empower informed decisions, encourage early detection, and foster hope. “Finding your ‘why’ is about recognizing what matters most to you, whether it’s family, dreams, or simply the desire to live fully,” says Dr. Prakash. This month, let us raise awareness, support research, and encourage conversations that break stigmas, reminding everyone that every story is unique, every journey matters, and every action can make a difference.
Oxford [United Kingdom], October 31: The Business Excellence and Empowering Visionaries Awards, held in Oxford at the historic Keble College, featured Dr Manu Singh, a renowned social activist, environmentalist, and spiritual reformer, as the Guest of Honour.
The evening was attended by representatives of 57 countries, among whom were Councillor Louise Upton, Mayor of Oxford, members of the House of Commons, Lord of Mayfair and the Lord of Wimbledon. The appearance of Dr Singh gave a spiritual organisation and patriotic overtones to the global assembly.
A Defining Patriotic Moment
On being called to the podium, Dr Singh modestly put aside the American flag and hoisted the Indian Tricolour before the audience, saying, ‘This flag should always be first when I have to give any speech.’ His closing words were “Jai Shri Ram,” which was followed by thunderous applause, infused with national pride and universal values.
A Message for a Shared World
Dr Singh presented the awards to the awardees in his keynote speech, which served as a bridge between ancient wisdom and contemporary issues. In a parable comparing Heaven with Hell, he emphasised that the distinction was a matter of attitude, of self- versus sharing.
“The table is already laid. The spoons are in our hands. It is a question of whether we shall starve together or prosper together, and of whether we shall be willing to nourish each other, which he was, to such a standing ovation.
Based on the Sanatan philosophy of Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam: the world is one family, Dr Singh challenged the leaders to regard the vulnerable not as a liability, but as a call of duty. He used the pandemic and climate change as a reminder of how human beings are connected and emphasised that uplifting the weakest is not a charity but a duty.
The Life Founded on the Sanatan Values.
Dr Singh, founder of Sarva Dharma Samvaad (SDS), has led faith leaders in the past to advocate animal welfare, environmental responsibility and interfaith coexistence. His campaigns against the sacrifice of animals and his support for stray animals make ahimsa (non-violence), seva (service), and jeev daya (compassion) as spiritual demands.
He redefines Sanatan spirituality as ecological by creating a connection between ecological stewardship and Hindu traditions, both the dog and cow of Bhairava and Krishna.
Global Recognition
Well-known in the world of spiritual values, Dr Singh has spoken at the Parliament of World Religions, the UN Environment Convention, and the World Muslim League, having been praised by Prime Minister Narendra Modi as an inspiration for using spiritual values to encourage ecological renewal. His acknowledgement at Oxford also solidifies his purpose as an ethical leader of the world.
Dr Singh brought the audience to a climax in his conclusion:
Leadership is not the ability to climb high, but to carry with us several people. Heaven and Hell are not far-off metaphorical abstractions–they are decisions that we make on a day-to-day basis. To the people assembled at Oxford, the message of Dr Singh was plain enough, so that it is not only a guest of honour, but a keeper of perennial wisdom to a broken world.
New Delhi [India], October 30: When Gujarat’s creative fire meets Mumbai’s spotlight, expect nothing short of a blockbuster. The Gujarati Entertainment & Gujarati–Marwari Excellence Awards 2025 didn’t just hand out trophies — it made a statement about where Gujarati culture and enterprise are headed next.
An Evening That Mixed Glamour With Grit

It wasn’t your typical red-carpet night; it was a cross-section of Gujarat’s cultural and business DNA shining under one roof.
A Vision Beyond Entertainment

Their conversation hit the sweet spot: Gujarati cinema has talent, heritage, and stories worth exporting. What it needs now is the muscle of marketing and international reach. The takeaway? Gujarati filmmakers are done playing small. They’re eyeing audiences from New York to Nairobi.
Stars, Legends, and Crowd Favorites
If you measured applause in decibels, the night probably registered on the Richter scale. Every award handed out celebrated not just performance, but persistence — the Gujarati knack for reinvention.
Major winners included:
Manoj Joshi — Lifetime Achievement to Indian Cinema
Hiten Kumar — Iconic Actor in Gujarati Cinema (Male)

Bhakti Rathod — People’s Choice Best Performance (Pushpa Impossible)
The lineup read like the IMDb of Gujarati pride. From stage veterans like Anang Desai to modern stars like Manasi Parekh, Rashmi Desai, and Sana Sultan, every corner of the Gujarati entertainment ecosystem showed up — and showed off.
Celebrating Business Brilliance Too
While the spotlight shone on actors and creators, the event also recognised Gujarati and Marwari business leaders who’ve been quietly powering India’s growth engines. These awards underscored that success in Gujarati culture isn’t limited to the stage or screen — it extends to boardrooms, showrooms, and innovation labs.
Entrepreneurs who built brands, created jobs, and took Indian enterprise global were honored for their contributions to trade, technology, and innovation. After all, as any Gujarati would tell you, creativity is good, but profit is better.
Power Partnerships Behind the Scenes
The grandeur of the evening owed much to its powerhouse sponsors. Sejal Realty powered the event, Zamin Pvt. Ltd. came on board as the Land Deal Partner, and Malabar Gold sparkled as the Exclusive Jewellery Partner. The celebration got an ethnic flair courtesy of Riyasat, while Florencia added fragrance to the festivity.
And yes, it was all supported by Saurabh Mehta, whose contribution to community events continues to amplify cultural footprints across India.
Bright Outdoor Media: Turning Events Into Legacy
At the heart of the event stood Dr Yogesh Lakhani, CMD of Bright Outdoor Media Limited — the man who turned what could have been a regional event into a national-level cultural statement.
“Gujarati entertainment and business communities have always stood for excellence and entrepreneurial spirit,” Dr Lakhani said. “This platform celebrates their contribution and creates an IP that will only grow bigger and brighter.”
Mukesh Sharma, CEO of Bright Outdoor Media, echoed that vision: “This is just the beginning. Our goal is to make the Gujarati Entertainment & Gujarati–Marwari Excellence Awards a marquee annual event celebrating culture, talent, and success stories across India.”
You can sense the ambition. Bright Outdoor isn’t just organising events; it’s building a cultural franchise.
The Business of Culture
In India’s entertainment economy, regional industries are where the real action is. Gujarati cinema, once a niche, is now scaling up with better storytelling, modern production, and digital-first audiences. Events like these accelerate that growth by connecting artists, investors, and influencers.
For Mumbai, the awards were another reminder that regional doesn’t mean small. Gujarat’s creative economy is now national — and increasingly global — in its outlook.
A Cultural Milestone, Not Just a Ceremony
By honoring over 60 achievers, this first edition set a tone: Gujarati culture is done being humble. It’s time to claim space on India’s biggest creative and business maps.
The fusion of entertainment and enterprise at this event symbolised the Gujarati way — mix creativity with commerce, and do it with flair.
If this were just chapter one, the sequel promises to be even bigger.
