  • Aarambh Sharad Ratri Ahmedabad Kicks Off Navratri 2025 in Style

    Aarambh Sharad Ratri Ahmedabad Kicks Off Navratri 2025 in Style

    Ahmedabad (Gujarat) [India], September 24: Ahmedabad decided to start Navratri 2025 with a bang, and not the quiet kind. Aarambh Sharad Ratri Ahmedabad, hosted by entrepreneurs Shruti Chaturvedi and Manu Khera, pulled in the city’s movers, shakers, and sparkle-makers. Business honchos, politicians, bureaucrats, celebrities, and content creators all turned up. If you weren’t there, yes, you missed the memo.

    The event was basically Ahmedabad saying, “Navratri starts here, and we mean business.”

    Aarambh Sharad Ratri PNN

    Tradition With a Starry Twist

    The night kicked off with a Bhavya Aarti led by a priest from Kashi Vishwanath Temple, Varanasi, along with five female priests. That’s right, tradition, but inclusive. No pretentious fluff.

    Then the crowd jumped into 2 Taali, 3 Taali, Raas, and Dandiya sequences. Hands clapping, feet moving, everyone feeling the rhythm. No artificial “vibe”, just real people, real energy.

    The Who’s Who of Gujarat

    The guest list read like a power directory:

    • Ajay Patel – Chairman of ADC Bank and GSC Bank, President of Gujarat Chambers of Commerce & Industry
    • Ravindra Bhati – MLA of Sheo, Rajasthan
    • Chiranjiv Patel – MD, PC Snehal Group
    • Pavan Bakeri – Bakeri Group
    • Shashank Kumar – Razorpay Co-founder

    And then, of course, the Gujarati film industry showed up to remind everyone that Navratri isn’t just for boardrooms:

    • Malhar Thakar
    • Mitra Gadhvi
    • Esha Kansara
    • Siddharth Bhavsar
    • Aarohi and Tatsat
    • Kinjal Rajpriya
    • Aanchal Agrawal

    Let’s be honest, seeing industrialists and film stars share the same floor while doing Dandiya is a sight that can’t be staged.

    Sacred Vibes, No Pretension

    Every attendee got Prasad from Ambaji Shaktipeeth. Not the candy-store kind, authentic, spiritual. It reminded everyone that amid all the glam and selfies, Navratri still starts with blessings.

    Shruti Chaturvedi Speaks

    Shruti Chaturvedi put it simply:

    “Aarambh Sharad Ratri was envisioned as a celebration where tradition meets community. We are overwhelmed with the love and participation from everyone who joined us – from leaders and creators to friends and family. This gathering was not just an event, but a reminder of how deeply culture connects us all, and I am grateful to each one who made it special.”

    They nailed it. Tradition, community, and spectacle all in one night.

    Mark your calendars. The next Sharad Ratri Garba is on 6th October, themed 16 Kalas on the Moon. After this launch, expectations are sky-high. If the first night is anything to go by, it’s going to be explosive, seriously, Ahmedabad doesn’t do dull.

Maa Durga, the embodiment of Shakti, arrives to bless her devotees with peace, prosperity, and happiness.

The evenings will be lit with laughter, applause, and the unmistakable energy of a community that knows how to celebrate life.

    Children and youth will find ample opportunities to participate—be it through recitations, dance competitions, or themed exhibitions. For many, this is the stage where they first discover their voice, their rhythm, and their connection to heritage.

    Food, Festivity & Fellowship

    No Bengali festival is complete without its culinary delights. GBA’s food stalls are legendary, offering everything from piping hot khichuri and beguni to mishti doi and rosogolla. It’s not just about eating—it’s about bonding over flavors that remind us of home.

    The festival also serves as a platform for local entrepreneurs and artisans to showcase their crafts, adding a vibrant bazaar-like charm to the venue. Whether you’re shopping for ethnic wear, handmade jewelry, or festive décor, you’ll find treasures that speak to your soul.

    So, whether you’re a nostalgic Bengali missing the para pujo vibes, a curious neighbor wanting to experience something new, or a cultural enthusiast looking for inspiration—this is your moment. Come, immerse yourself in the colors, sounds, and spirit of Sharodotsav.

    “The future of lab-created diamonds is promising. Their value in the fashion, luxury, and royalty segments is increasing because of their special designs and lower prices.”

ACTIZEET embraces this wisdom while aligning with modern scientific validation. Studies confirm Shilajit’s benefits for energy metabolism, testosterone support, cognitive performance, and recovery.

    By combining traditional purity with modern science, ACTIZEET bridges the gap between ancient heritage and contemporary men’s health needs.

    Market Leadership: Setting a Benchmark

    The Indian wellness market is flooded with Shilajit products, but many are diluted, capsule-based, or artificially processed. ACTIZEET distinguishes itself with:

    • Resin Form Advantage – Unlike powders or capsules, ACTIZEET provides Shilajit in resin form — the way nature intended, ensuring maximum potency.
    • Transparent Sourcing & Purification – From Ladakh mountains to your home, ACTIZEET guarantees transparency in sourcing and production.
    • Customer Education & Authenticity Verification – ACTIZEET empowers men to check authenticity with lab certifications and QR-code verification.

    This dedication to transparency and purity cements ACTIZEET as the market leader in Shilajit for men in India.

    A Message from the Founder

    Speaking on the brand’s mission, Tapas K. Biswas, Founder of ACTIZEET, said:

    “At ACTIZEET, our goal is to bring back the original purity of Himalayan Shilajit and make it accessible to men who value their health and strength. We believe that every man deserves the confidence, energy, and vitality that only authentic Shilajit can provide. That’s why we stand firm on our promise: Be Original. Be Strong.

    ACTIZEET Shilajit is available exclusively on the official website www.actizeet.in, ensuring that customers receive genuine, lab-verified products directly from the source. With pan-India delivery, men across urban and rural regions can access the best Shilajit for men in India at their doorstep.

    VPN IBE Awards 2025 honor trailblazers with style

    Kochi (Kerala) [India], September 24: Kochi turned into a power stage on September 23. The VPN IBE Awards 2025 brought together leaders from business, healthcare, cinema, and philanthropy under one roof and shone the spotlight on them.

    Most people barely remember to thank their mentors. Dr Ajit Ravi went further. In 2015, he created the VPN IBE Award to salute the man who shaped his career: V. P. Nandakumar, Chairman and MD of Manappuram Finance Ltd. What started in Sri Lanka is now celebrating its 10th year in Kochi.

    The anniversary edition wasn’t just another awards night. It was a statement: gratitude fuels legacy, and legacy powers impact.

    On September 23, the Gokulam Convention Centre in Kochi hosted the latest edition of the Manappuram VPN IBE Awards 2025. Red carpet, flashing lights, and applause that felt earned, not manufactured.

    The awards were co-presented by V. P. Nandakumar and Dr Ajit Ravi, who also helmed the evening. Their joint presence sent a clear message: this isn’t about one man’s ego. It’s about a platform to celebrate excellence wherever it shows up.

    Honorees Who Redefine Excellence

    Banking That Includes, Not Excludes

    Dr K. Paul Thomas, MD & CEO of ESAF Group of Social Enterprises, walked away with the Beacon of Inclusive Banking Excellence Award. His work has expanded financial inclusion into areas that banks typically overlook. In a country like India, where millions remain unbanked, that’s not just noble, it’s necessary.

    Healthcare With a Heart

    Next, the Exemplary Leader in Healthcare and Philanthropy Award was presented to S.K. Abdulla, MD, of Lakeshore Hospital and Research Centre Ltd. In a sector too often driven by profit margins, Abdulla’s focus on care and giving back stood out.

    Building More Than Towers

    Dr. Varghese Kurian, Group Chairman and MD of VKL Group, received the Business Luminary in Real Estate, Hospitality, and Philanthropy Award. His track record goes beyond skyscrapers and luxury hotels. It’s about philanthropy stitched into the business model, something Indian industries could use more of.

    Cinema Royalty

    Veteran producer and media leader Dr Gokulam Gopalan was honoured with the Lifetime Achievement Award in Indian Cinema. With decades of work shaping Malayalam cinema and beyond, Gopalan’s recognition was met with a standing ovation. Cinema in India isn’t just entertainment. It’s culture. And he has built plenty of it.

    India has no shortage of award nights. Half of them feel like selfie contests. The VPN IBE Awards cut differently. They focus on people who use success as a multiplier, creating opportunities, not just headlines.

    By honouring inclusive bankers, ethical healthcare leaders, community-minded business builders, and cultural giants, the awards underline a simple fact: power is pointless if it doesn’t create impact.

    Hosting this in Kochi wasn’t accidental. Kerala has a history of producing entrepreneurs who balance profit with responsibility. From cooperative banks to pioneering hospitals, the state thrives on models where community and commerce meet. The VPN IBE Awards plugged right into that tradition.

    Every awardee had their moment on stage, and every acceptance speech echoed a mix of gratitude and vision. The applause wasn’t polite; it was real. Attendees knew they were watching not just winners, but changemakers.

    Dr Ajit Ravi and V. P. Nandakumar didn’t just hand over trophies. They reinforced a decade-old tradition: celebrating leadership that isn’t afraid to stand tall.

    And in a year when India continues to push boundaries in business, cinema, and healthcare, the VPN IBE Awards 2025 couldn’t have been better timed.
