    Hollywood Actor-Producer Prashant Rai Unveils “Pyar Da Rang” : A Soul-Stirring First Ever AI-Created Tribute Inspired by the Air India Ahmedabad Crash

    Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], August 23: Hollywood actor, visionary producer, and tech entrepreneur Prashant Rai has unveiled his latest evocative creation, “Pyar Da Rang”, an emotionally resonant and visually immersive music video that dares to reimagine the events surrounding the Air India Ahmedabad plane crash, drawing upon early investigative reports.

    But this is no ordinary artistic tribute; this is cinema redefined by artificial intelligence. Produced under the banner of New York Pictures, USA, a pioneering force in the convergence of AI and entertainment, “Pyar Da Rang” marks a revolutionary milestone in storytelling. From the penning of poignant lyrics to the creation of soul-touching audio, from musical composition to its hauntingly beautiful visuals, every element of this production has been generated using cutting-edge AI technologies.

    Prashant Rai, known for pushing the boundaries of creativity and technology, has once again proven why he stands at the forefront of Hollywood’s digital renaissance. With a rare combination of artistic vision and technological prowess, he continues to set a global benchmark in the use of AI for meaningful storytelling.

    “With ‘Pyar Da Rang,’ we set out to explore not just the facts of a tragic event, but the human heart behind it. AI gave us a powerful tool — but it’s empathy that guided its hand. This song is a tribute to lives lost, love left behind, and the silent stories that never got told. It’s where technology becomes a bridge to emotion,” says Rai

    As the world watches the entertainment industry evolve, “Pyar Da Rang” emerges as a bold and beautiful testament to what AI can accomplish when wielded with empathy, intent, and cinematic brilliance.

  • Kochi Blue Tigers ease past Trivandrum Royals with eight-wicket win

    Kochi Blue Tigers ease past Trivandrum Royals with eight-wicket win

    Thiruvananthapuram (Kerala) [India], August 23: Kochi Blue Tigers cruised to victory against Trivandrum Royals in the second match of KCL Season 2, winning by eight wickets. After bowling out Royals for 97 in 20 overs, Kochi chased down the target in just 11.5 overs. Mohammed Ashiq, who claimed three wickets, was named Man of the Match.

    Trivandrum Royals stumbled early due to costly errors, including three run-outs that derailed their innings. Explosive opener S Subin was the first to fall without scoring, undone by a sharp throw from Sanju Samson.

    Soon after, Riya Basheer was removed by Akhin Sathar. At just 22 runs, Royals had already lost Krishna Prasad and Govind Pai to poor running between the wickets, while M Nikhil departed for a duck.

    Abdul Basith (17) tried to steady the innings, but it was the lower-order resistance from all-rounders Abhijith Praveen (28) and Basil Thampi (20) that pushed Royals close to three figures. For Kochi, Ashiq and Akhin starred with three wickets apiece.

    In reply, Kochi chased comfortably. Openers Jobin Jobi (8) and Vinoop Manoharan (14) fell cheaply, but skipper Saly Samson anchored the innings with a blazing unbeaten 50 off 30 balls, including five fours and three sixes. He was well supported by Mohammed Shanu, who finished unbeaten on 23. The pair ensured Kochi reached the target with ease. TS Vinil picked up the lone wicket for Royals.

    Weddings. Films. Brands. Events. One Visionary: Dhrumil Shah

    Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], August 22: Dhrumil Shah isn’t just an entrepreneur — he’s a storyteller, a cultural curator, and a branding visionary who began carving his path at just 17. Young, passionate, and fuelled by a relentless thirst to build something of his own, Dhrumil stepped into the world of creativity with a boldness that defied his age. What started as an instinctive pull toward theatre, visual media, and digital storytelling quickly grew into a purpose-driven pursuit. While most were still exploring their interests, he was already shaping narratives — experimenting with content, studying audience behavior, and laying the groundwork for a career rooted in innovation. Over time, he established DhruVats, a boutique marketing consultancy known for original campaigns, emotionally intelligent branding, and sharp consumer insight. From launching regional blockbusters like Shu Thayu and Chaal Mann Jeetva Jaiye to driving over 200 brand campaigns, DhruVats has grown into a name synonymous with substance, strategy, and soul. But Dhrumil didn’t stop there. He ventured into the world of luxury weddings with Julio & Maclovia, a premium global wedding company that has successfully executed more than 50 events known for their visual poetry, cultural detail, and flawless execution. Under his leadership, Julio & Maclovia has become a quiet force in the destination wedding space — trusted by families across continents who seek more than grandeur: they seek meaning. Whether building a brand from scratch or designing an experience that lives in memory, Dhrumil’s strength lies in understanding emotion and translating it into something unforgettable.

    At the intersection of culture, commerce, and creativity, Dhrumil continues to expand his portfolio with a sharp eye for detail and a deep understanding of audiences. His work spans industries but is tied together by one common thread — experience-driven storytelling. Whether it’s managing large-scale brand activations, leading digital strategy for high-impact campaigns, or curating intimate, globally styled weddings, every project reflects a unique blend of precision and personality. One of his most notable cultural contributions, Garbina Garba, remains close to his heart — a carefully curated Navratri celebration that reintroduces tradition through a contemporary lens. Yet, it’s just one piece of a much larger canvas. Today, Dhrumil leads teams across multiple verticals, delivering insight-led solutions that feel both culturally rooted and creatively bold. His entrepreneurial journey is not one of linear growth but of consistent reinvention — proving that when passion meets purpose, impact is inevitable.

A springboard to a million dreams, it has served as a launchpad for men who have stood tall on global stages, representing India with pride, inspiring millions, and carving stellar careers in the fashion and entertainment circuit. This year, the bar was raised with Mr World 2016 Rohit Khandelwal joining as official mentor, inspiring finalists to embody confidence, intellect, talent, and integrity.

    After an extensive nationwide hunt and screening, 100 shortlisted hopefuls from across the country arrived in Mumbai for the mega auditions, undergoing rigorous selection rounds that tested every dimension: personality, intellect, talent, fitness, and presentation. From these, the Top 12 finalists advanced to a high-intensity bootcamp, featuring grooming masterclasses, fashion shoots, interviews, and sub-contests – all culminating in a grand finale that Mumbai will long remember.

With thought-provoking questions met by confident responses, the evening built to its climax — the announcement and felicitation of the three new titleholders, Shevam Singh – Mr India World 2025,  Abel Biju – Mr India Supranational 2026, and Shiv Chordia – Mr India Rising Star 2025. The celebrations continued late into the night with DJ Ganesh keeping the energy high.

    The introduction of the Mr India Rising Star 2025 title was the game-changer of the season — recognising holistic excellence in academics, athletics, extra-curriculars, and social impact.

    About the winners: 

    Mr India World 2025 Shevam Singh: From the banks of the Ganges and carrying the pride of Patna, Shevam Singh comes from a humble middle-class family where values, discipline, and education were non-negotiable. Raised with a strong foundation of humility and hard work, he is determined, adaptable, and grounded.

    Travel, fitness, public speaking and travelling have shaped his personality; he likes to explore different possibilities and make the most of it. Beyond the runway, Shevam is deeply passionate about social causes, particularly education accessibility for underprivileged children and animal welfare. One of his most memorable achievements was winning the Phoenix Best Runway Model title at the Prasad Bidapa Mega Model Hunt in 2019, a moment that marked the beginning of his journey in the world of fashion and modelling.

    Mr India Supranational 2026 Abel Biju: Kottayam’s grace, Kerala’s glory, Abel Biju is a banker by profession. Raised by his single mother, who instilled in him values of hard work, resilience, and compassion, Abel credits much of his success to her unwavering support and strength. Known for being kind, confident, and determined, he approaches every challenge as an opportunity to grow and improve.

    Passionate about animal welfare, Abel works with rescue groups to provide care and raise awareness for neglected street animals. He believes a compassionate society starts with kindness toward the voiceless. Among his memorable achievements are being a finalist in Mr India, being the only one on his campus to secure placements at Federal Bank and Godrej, along earning a university-level table tennis position.

    Mr India Rising Star 2025 Shiv Chordia: Coming from the Cultural Heartbeat of Maharashtra, Pune, Shiv Chordia is a true all-rounder. He has won a state-level tabla competition, excelled in state-level tennis, and was crowned winner of a prestigious Pune pageant. Growing up in a household with four generations under one roof, he gained a deep understanding of values, experiences, and business through enriching dinner-table conversations. His calm and grounded nature is nurtured by the spiritual environment he is actively involved.

    He values hard work, likes to explore places, and interact with diverse people; he believes in empowering himself to reach his full potential. Rooted in humanity and driven by purpose, Shiv is passionate about creating meaningful change. He strongly believes that poverty can be eradicated by investing in youth entrepreneurship, empowering the next generation with tools and opportunities to lead with innovation and compassion.

  • From Latur to Dubai: How Abhay Patil Became India’s Youngest Forex Star Before 24

    From Latur to Dubai: How Abhay Patil Became India’s Youngest Forex Star Before 24

    Latur (Maharashtra) [India], August 22: Coming from a middle-class family in Latur, Abhay Patil’s journey is one of resilience, risk-taking, and relentless pursuit of growth. Today, at just 24, he stands as one of India’s most recognised young traders and content creators, but the road to success wasn’t an easy one.

    Early Beginnings: A Teenage Entrepreneur

    Abhay Patil’s entrepreneurial instincts showed up early. At the age of 16, while most teenagers were busy preparing for board exams, he was building his first business. Selling customised merchandise, he managed to generate profits of over ₹3 lakh in his very first year.

    This initial success not only gave him confidence but also provided him with the capital he needed for his next big chapter — trading.

    The Pune Chapter: Balancing Studies and Markets

    When Abhay Patil shifted to Pune for college, he was just 18. While pursuing his B.Tech degree, he simultaneously entered the world of trading, investing the profits from his merchandise business.

    But trading wasn’t easy. The lack of structured guidance, the negative perception surrounding the industry, and the risks involved made his journey extremely challenging. He often had to sacrifice classes, internships, and even opportunities that most college students would consider invaluable.

    “Everyone thought I was wasting my time, but I believed in the process,” Abhay Patil recalls.

    Adding to his struggles, the removal of leverage in Indian markets hit him hard. Yet, instead of quitting, Abhay Patil adapted and kept learning, making mistakes, and evolving.

    The YouTube Struggles: From 100 Subscribers to 780K

    Parallel to trading, Abhay Patil also began creating content to share his experiences. But his YouTube journey was filled with setbacks. Between 2020 and 2022, he lost three entire channels, along with more than 500 videos.

    Despite this, he never gave up. For two years, he had only 100 subscribers — a number that would have discouraged most creators. But Abhay Patil persisted.

    By 2024, his hard work finally paid off. His channel skyrocketed to 500K subscribers, and today, he commands a massive audience of over 780K on YouTube and 435K on Instagram.

    Expanding Horizons: From Indian Markets to Crypto and Forex

    Initially, Abhay Patil’s focus was on the Indian stock markets. But in 2022, he discovered cryptocurrency trading and realised the immense potential of global markets. By 2023, he had fully entered the world of forex trading.

    Seeing the limitations of Indian markets compared to international opportunities, Abhay Patil decided to go all-in on forex and crypto.

    His decision paid off. In 2024, he moved to Dubai, positioning himself at the global hub of finance and innovation. There, he not only attended international trading events but also networked with some of the world’s top financial minds.

    Abhay Patil also became the first Indian trader to live-stream forex trading, giving his community real-time insights and strategies.

    Milestones of Success: Supercars and Six-Figure Days

    For Abhay Patil, trading wasn’t just about charts and numbers. It was about turning dreams into reality. Before his 24th birthday, he achieved one of his lifelong goals — buying his first dream car, a Chevrolet Corvette.

    But that was just the beginning. In December 2024, Abhay Patil achieved another milestone by making $100,000 in a single day from trading. To celebrate, he purchased his second dream car, the iconic Mercedes G-Wagon.

    Beyond Wealth: Building a Community

    While luxury cars and big profits are part of Abhay Patil’s story, he insists they are not his biggest achievements. For him, the real joy comes from the messages he receives daily from his followers.

    “When someone tells me they learned trading from my videos and were able to buy their dream bike, support their parents, pay off debts, or just change their life — that means more to me than any milestone,” he says.

    This philosophy of giving back to the community has become central to the Abhay Patil brand. His content is not just about profits, but about financial literacy, discipline, and inspiring people to take control of their financial futures.

    The Bigger Picture

    Abhay Patil journey is a reflection of a larger movement in India, where young traders and creators are breaking stereotypes and building global careers. His story shows that with determination, resilience, and adaptability, it is possible to turn challenges into stepping stones.

    From a 16-year-old selling merchandise in Latur to a 24-year-old trader in Dubai, Abhay Patil’s rise is proof that age and background are no barriers to success.

    And for him, this is just the beginning.
