    Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], June 18: Nesterra, the home textiles brand from Sutlej Textiles and Industries Limited, part of the K.K. Birla Group, has launched its New Collection, a premium range that brings together design, craftsmanship, performance, and responsible manufacturing in one layered offering.

    Built around three distinct narratives, Featuring You, Flawless, and Everyday Luxe, the collection introduces a wide portfolio of upholstery and curtain fabrics designed for contemporary homes that value depth, durability, and visual richness. Inspired by the warmth and permanence of heritage homes, the new collection uses refined maximalism to create interiors that feel expressive, personal, and timeless.

    “Performance is now inseparable from sustainability in home textiles,” said Ashish Kumar, CEO and Wholetime Director – Home Textiles and Exports, Sutlej Textiles and Industries Limited. “A fabric has to earn its place in a home over time. That means strong construction, easy maintenance, long-term durability, and responsible production at the fibre and manufacturing stage. Nesterra’s new collection is built on that principle.”

    The collection features rich textures, luxury jacquards, chenilles, intricate embroideries, printed surfaces, and heritage-inspired details across multiple fabric ranges. From statement upholstery to structured curtains, the line is designed to move beyond decorative appeal and offer fabrics that live well in everyday use.

    “The things we value most are seldom the newest ones,” said Smita Joshi, Vice President – Home Textiles and Exports, Nesterra, Sutlej Textiles and Industries Limited. “Nesterra 6.0 is for people who cherish taking time to build their homes and spaces, who create interiors that feel timeless and forever. We wanted to make people pause, reflect, and appreciate that beauty rather than rush from one collection to the next. That is the soul of this collection.”

    Featuring You leads the collection’s narrative with a celebration of craftsmanship and intricate detail. The range centres on luxury jacquards with a luminous finish, layered with heritage-inspired motifs and rich ornamental depth. A significant portfolio addition is Panelogy, Nesterra’s debut panel curtain collection, which pairs jacquard with delicate embroidery in structured drapery forms. Heirloom brings curtain and upholstery fabrics together under one heritage-inspired story, while Ornate Drapes II is a sequel of the first embroidery collection and Royal Tales complete a lineup built for spaces that carry artistry and history.

    The Flawless collection addresses the performance dimension of that story. Built around easy-clean, high-performance upholstery with stain resistance, durable constructions, and soft woollen-look and chenille surfaces, it is designed for high-use spaces where beauty must be matched by function. Chair Affair II extends this thinking with upholstery fabrics created specifically for statement seating.

    Everyday Luxe rounds out the collection with a Modern Classic sensibility, balancing sleek finishes and sophisticated surface textures for spaces where elevated design is a daily standard. Printed chenille brings tactile depth and visual interest to upholstery, while the Curtain Bible IV series offers a well-edited range of textured plains and fancy weaves for contemporary window treatments.

    The collection is developed with attention to fibre selection, responsible sourcing, water and energy use, dyeing and finishing processes, and waste reduction, with select products aligned to Digital Product Passport requirements for end-to-end traceability.

    With Nesterra’s 6th year of collection launch, the brand continues to build on its premium identity while expanding the conversation around what modern home textiles should deliver: beauty, resilience, comfort, and responsible making.

  • Reference to Video AI Emerges as the Next Evolution of AI Video Creation

    Reference to Video AI Emerges as the Next Evolution of AI Video Creation

    New Delhi [India], June 18: AI video creation is moving fast. What felt impressive a year ago—typing a prompt and getting a usable clip—now feels like the starting point. Brands, creators, and marketers want more control, more consistency, and better output without adding hours of editing work.

    That shift is exactly why reference to video AI is gaining attention. Instead of relying only on text prompts or few images, this new approach uses a reference image, style, subject, or visual cue to guide the final video result.

    Why AI Video Creation Needed a Next Step

    Text-to-video tools opened the door to a new kind of content production. They made it possible to turn ideas into motion quickly, often with minimal technical skill. But for many users, there was still a gap between imagination and output.

    A text prompt can only do so much. Words are flexible, but they are also vague. If you want a video to match a specific product look, character style, brand tone, or scene composition, describing every detail in text can be frustrating. Even then, the result may not be consistent.

    Reference to video AI changes the game. By giving the model a visual reference to follow, users can guide the style, subject, framing, or mood much more precisely. Instead of asking AI to guess what “clean luxury product aesthetic” means, you can show it.

    This is why many people now see AI reference to video generation as the next logical step in the evolution of AI video tools.

    What Is Reference to Video AI?

    At its core, reference to video AI is a workflow where a user provides some kind of visual input—such as an image, frame, design, character, product photo, or style reference—and the AI uses that material to generate a video.

    That reference can help shape:

    ● Character appearance

    ● Product consistency

    ● Visual style

    ● Scene composition

    ● Motion direction

    ● Color palette

    ● Brand aesthetics

    This approach gives creators more control than pure text prompting. It also reduces one of the biggest pain points in AI video creation: unpredictability.

    In practical terms, reference to video AI allows a creator to start with something concrete and turn it into motion, rather than starting from a blank prompt and hoping the result feels right.

    Why This Matters for Marketers and Creators

    The rise of short-form content has changed how video gets made. Teams need more assets, more often, and for more platforms. But speed alone is not enough. The content also has to look on-brand and feel intentional.

    That is why reference based AI video generation is becoming so valuable.

    Better Brand Consistency

    Brands care deeply about visual identity. Colors, product angles, styling, and overall tone all matter. With a reference-led workflow, teams can keep those elements more consistent across multiple videos.

    Faster Revisions

    When the first result is closer to the target, less editing is needed. That shortens production cycles and helps marketers publish faster.

    More Usable Output

    Generic AI videos may look impressive, but not always practical. Reference-guided generation improves relevance, which makes the final content more useful for ads, product showcases, tutorials, and social posts.

    Easier Creative Scaling

    A single reference can be turned into multiple content variations. That makes it easier to create platform-specific assets without rebuilding each piece from scratch.

    How Reference to Video AI Works in Real Use Cases

    This technology is not just interesting in theory. It is already useful in a wide range of content workflows.

    Product Marketing

    E-commerce brands can use product photos as references to generate promotional videos that stay visually aligned with real inventory. This is especially useful for ads, landing pages, and marketplace content.

    Character and Avatar Content

    Creators who rely on recurring characters or digital presenters can use reference visuals to keep appearances more stable across videos.

    Style Transfer for Social Media

    A creator may want multiple videos to follow the same visual language. With reference to video AI tools, one image or frame can guide a whole series of posts.

    Campaign Variations

    Marketers can take one approved visual direction and quickly generate different edits for different audiences, offers, or channels.

    Pollo AI Makes This Workflow More Accessible

    As more creators and marketers explore this space, usability becomes just as important as raw generation power. That is one reason tools like Pollo AI are worth watching. It offers a wide range of one-click video creation templates, which makes it easier to turn ideas into finished content quickly. For busy teams and creators, that matters.

    Another practical advantage is that these ready-made templates can help produce videos that are easy to publish directly to social media. Whether you want to make a meme video, or copy a viral post on TikTok, Pollo AI can always let you create platform-friendly content with less friction.

    For brands trying to keep up with content demand, that kind of workflow can save real time.

    Why Reference-Led Video Feels More Practical

    Prompt-only video generation is exciting because it lowers the barrier to entry. But in real production environments, control matters. Teams are not just making videos for fun. They are making them for campaigns, launches, conversions, and brand storytelling.

    That means they need output that is:

    ● Repeatable

    ● Editable

    ● Visually aligned

    ● Platform-ready

    ● Fast to produce

    This is exactly why reference image to AI video workflows feel more practical. They bridge the gap between creative freedom and production reliability.

    Instead of endlessly rewriting prompts, users can anchor the AI with something visual. That often leads to less trial and error and a smoother path from concept to final asset.

    What to Look for in a Reference to Video AI Tool

    Not all tools will deliver the same experience. If you are evaluating options, look for features that support real-world production needs:

    ● Strong visual consistency

    ● Easy reference upload

    ● Fast rendering

    ● Multiple output styles

    ● Social-media-friendly formats

    ● Template-based workflows

    ● Simple editing and export options

    The best reference to video AI platforms are not just technically impressive. They are built to help people create usable content quickly and consistently.

    The Future of AI Video Creation Will Be More Guided

    AI video generation is clearly moving toward more guided, controllable workflows. That is a good thing. It means the technology is becoming more useful, not just more flashy.

    Reference to video AI represents that shift perfectly. It gives creators a better way to communicate intent, maintain consistency, and produce content that actually fits business and creative goals. As demand for video keeps rising, tools that combine speed with control will stand out.

    In the next stage of AI video creation, the winners will not simply be the tools that generate the wildest clips. They will be the ones that help users create the right videos faster. And right now, reference-led workflows look like one of the clearest signs of where the industry is heading.

  • Sumathy Iyer Redefines Resilience and Performance Through The Unbreakable Loop

    Sumathy Iyer Redefines Resilience and Performance Through The Unbreakable Loop

    New Delhi [India], June 18: Mumbai-based author, entrepreneur, and life coach Sumathy Iyer has unveiled her transformative new book, The Unbreakable Loop – A High Performance System for Effortless Energy, Sovereign Control and Growth from Chaos. Through this powerful work, she introduces readers to a practical framework designed to help individuals thrive amidst pressure, uncertainty, and modern-day burnout. The book is available on Amazon.

    With over fifteen years of experience working for social causes and studying neuroscience and nutrition, Sumathy Iyer’s journey is deeply rooted in understanding the human experience. Growing up in a modern Tamil Brahmin family and later embracing the dynamic life of an Army wife, she learned resilience, adaptability, and the importance of meaningful human connection. Her work today seamlessly blends science, service, and storytelling.

    Reflecting on her evolution as an author, Sumathy shares that writing was never a sudden decision but a gradual realization. Known for her outspoken personality and keen observations, she initially began expressing her thoughts through blogs and reflective writing. Over time, these digital reflections evolved into a deeper calling. Her first book officially launched in 2022, but the writer within her had been taking shape for years.

    Speaking about the inspiration behind The Unbreakable Loop, she explains that years of navigating high-pressure environments made her recognize how many people rely solely on emotional endurance to succeed. She wanted to create a system where performance is supported not by exhaustion and constant stress, but by biology, structure, and sustainable habits.

    Drawing inspiration from the concept of “antifragility,” the book encourages readers to move beyond simply surviving adversity. Instead, it teaches them how to transform setbacks into opportunities for growth and evolution. Combining neuroscience, nutrition, and practical daily systems, the book serves as a high-performance operating framework for entrepreneurs, leaders, professionals, and anyone seeking greater control over their mental and physical wellbeing.

    Readers can expect to gain actionable insights into managing energy, improving resilience, and escaping cycles of burnout. The book emphasizes achieving a state of “sovereign control,” where external chaos no longer becomes a source of defeat but instead acts as a catalyst for transformation and growth.

    Beyond writing, Sumathy Iyer continues to dedicate herself to entrepreneurship, coaching, and philanthropy. Her work focuses extensively on supporting women, children, and individuals navigating challenging life transitions. She also remains deeply passionate about reading, music, and mentoring others toward personal empowerment.

    Looking ahead, she plans to continue writing both high-performance wellness guides and creative explorations through social commentary and satirical fiction. Her aim is to bridge emotional intelligence, science, and storytelling in ways that resonate deeply with modern readers.

    To aspiring writers, Sumathy offers a heartfelt message: trust your unique voice and begin before perfection arrives. She believes that consistency, authenticity, and lived experience are the foundations of meaningful writing.

    Through The Unbreakable Loop, Sumathy Iyer delivers more than a self-help book—she offers readers a blueprint for navigating modern life with clarity, resilience, and purpose.

  • Bangalore Author Shruthi Harikrishna Blends Doodles, Data, and Life Lessons in Her Debut Book The Store of Life

    Bangalore Author Shruthi Harikrishna Blends Doodles, Data, and Life Lessons in Her Debut Book The Store of Life

    New Delhi [India], June 18: Bangalore-based author Shruthi Harikrishna marks an inspiring literary debut with The Store of Life, a visually engaging and deeply reflective book that reimagines self-help through doodles, storytelling, humour, and mindful introspection. Rather than presenting itself as a conventional self-help guide, the book uses a unique shopping analogy where time, not money, is life’s most limited resource. Readers are encouraged to thoughtfully “fill their baskets” with experiences, habits, relationships, and moments that bring genuine meaning and contentment.

    Available on Amazon India, The Store of Life blends visual creativity with emotional insight, creating an experience that feels both playful and profound. Each chapter concludes with a thoughtful “checkout counter” section that gently nudges readers to pause, reflect, and actively apply the lessons from the chapter into their own lives.

    A state rank holder, Computer Science Engineer, and MBA graduate from IIM Bangalore, Shruthi currently works in analytics at a global software company, where she transforms data into meaningful insights. Beyond her corporate career, however, lies a deeply creative storyteller who has long expressed herself through writing, doodles, and art.

    Her widely read blog, TameShru@Wordpress, with over 20,000 views, first introduced readers to her witty and insightful observations on everyday life. Her storytelling abilities were further recognised when one of her short stories won the prestigious Deccan Herald Short Story Competition. She also nurtures her artistic side through creative platforms such as Whorls of Maya and Doodle. Doodle. Do, where her intricate zentangles and whimsical doodles come alive.

    Reflecting on her first book, Shruthi describes the experience as deeply personal and emotionally fulfilling. She shares that writing a book had long been a quiet dream she knew she would regret not pursuing later in life. For her, storytelling has never been limited to writing alone — it naturally flows through her work, observations, art, and interactions with the world around her.

    The inspiration for The Store of Life emerged through several meaningful moments. A former boss once gifted her the doodle-filled book The Giant Hairball, noting how perfectly it reflected her own blend of creativity and writing. Around the same time, a blog she wrote about people accumulating things that fail to bring real happiness resonated strongly with readers, eventually becoming the seed for the book’s central idea.

    Deeply influenced by her Vipassana practice and her desire to bring more gentleness into an increasingly stressful world, Shruthi created The Store of Life as a light yet meaningful companion for readers. Through doodles, reflections, and relatable life observations, the book reminds readers that while time is finite, people still have the power to consciously choose what truly deserves space in their “basket of life.”

    Filled with warmth, humour, visual storytelling, and practical reflection, The Store of Life invites readers to slow down, reassess priorities, and rediscover meaning in everyday moments.

  • Khavda to Maharashtra: A Critical Power Transmission Link Strengthening India’s Energy Security

    Khavda to Maharashtra: A Critical Power Transmission Link Strengthening India’s Energy Security

    New Delhi [India], June 18: The Khavda project, being developed in the vast expanse of the Rann of Kutch in western India, is emerging as one of the country’s largest renewable energy hubs. However, the success of any energy project is not measured solely by the amount of electricity it generates; it also depends on how efficiently, reliably, and safely that electricity reaches consumers. Cities, industries, and households located hundreds of kilometers away can benefit from power generation only when supported by a robust transmission network.

    Against this backdrop, the Khavda IV C Power Transmission Project is becoming a vital component of India’s energy infrastructure. As part of this project, Resonia Limited is undertaking the construction of transmission towers and power lines, creating the critical network required to connect power generation centers with the national grid.

    The Backbone of the Energy Sector: Transmission Networks

    No matter how much electricity is generated, its full value cannot be realized unless it can be transmitted efficiently to consumption centers. This is why power transmission infrastructure is often considered the backbone of the energy sector.

    The Khavda IV C project is enabling the integration of an additional 7 GW of power into the national grid. Transmission towers, high-voltage power lines, and associated infrastructure play a crucial role in this process. These facilities bridge the gap between power generation sites and areas where electricity is consumed.

    Growing urban and industrial centers such as the Mumbai Metropolitan Region, Pune, and other key economic hubs across Maharashtra require a dependable and resilient power supply. A strong transmission network ensures that electricity can be delivered reliably and without interruption, supporting economic growth and energy security.

    The Role of Transmission Infrastructure in India’s Energy Transition

    India has set an ambitious target of achieving 500 GW of non-fossil fuel-based energy capacity by 2030. Achieving this goal requires not only large-scale power generation but also significant investments in transmission infrastructure.

    Power is often generated in locations far from major demand centers. In such situations, a strong transmission network becomes essential for delivering electricity through the national grid to where it is needed most. As a result, transmission infrastructure plays a critical role in ensuring energy availability, grid stability, and long-term energy security.

    The Khavda IV C project represents an important step toward achieving these national objectives. Through the transmission infrastructure being developed by Resonia, a vital connection is being established between power generation assets and end users.

    “Power generation facilities produce electricity, but transmission networks connect that power to the nation’s development. A strong and reliable transmission system forms the foundation of energy security. Through the Khavda IV C Project, Resonia is developing critical infrastructure that links power generation centers with consumption hubs, while upholding the principles of environmental responsibility and sustainable development. In doing so, the company is helping build a more resilient, efficient, and future-ready energy sector for India.”— Ninad Pitale, Vice President, Resonia

    Development with Community Participation

    The project is being implemented with a strong focus on stakeholder engagement, including continuous dialogue with local communities, farmers, village representatives, and other stakeholders.

    In addition, the project is contributing to local employment generation, skill development, and infrastructure improvements in the project area. As a result, it is not only creating critical energy infrastructure but also supporting socio-economic development in the communities along its route.

    Building Infrastructure with Environmental Responsibility

    While implementing the Khavda IV C Power Transmission Project, Resonia is placing equal emphasis on environmental responsibility. Across various stages of the project, modern mechanisation and advanced technologies are being used to minimize environmental impact. In addition, tree plantation and conservation initiatives are being undertaken to enhance green cover, while the project is being executed in line with sustainable development principles and with due consideration for local environmental conditions.

    Transmission Towers: Pillars of India’s Power Network

    The transmission towers being erected along the Khavda-to-Maharashtra corridor are much more than steel structures. They are fundamental pillars of India’s power system, enabling electricity generated at distant locations to reach millions of consumers.

    These towers and transmission lines strengthen the national grid, improve the reliability of power supply, and facilitate efficient power transfer across states. Their contribution is essential to supporting India’s economic growth, industrial expansion, and increasing energy demands.

    The recent observance of World Environment Day served as a reminder that sustainable development depends not only on generating clean energy but also on ensuring its efficient delivery. Through the Khavda IV C Power Transmission Project, Resonia is playing a vital role in building the infrastructure that connects power generation centers to consumers, strengthening India’s energy security and laying the foundation for the nation’s growing energy needs.

  • Ajay’s Cafe Celebrates the Spirit of Brotherhood and Motorcycling with GMRA on World Motorcycle Day 2026

    Ajay’s Cafe Celebrates the Spirit of Brotherhood and Motorcycling with GMRA on World Motorcycle Day 2026

    As hundreds of riders gather in Daman to celebrate the spirit of motorcycling, the initiative highlights a simple yet powerful message  every ride should end with a safe return home.

    Surat (Gujarat) [India], June 18: Ajay’s Cafe, one of Gujarat’s most loved café and food brands, has announced its association with the Gujarat Motorcycle Riders Association (GMRA) for the celebration of World Motorcycle Day 2026, scheduled to be held on 20-21 June 2026 at Le Vino, Daman.

    The two-day event is expected to bring together 160-200 motorcycle riders from across Gujarat and neighbouring regions for a celebration of riding culture, camaraderie, adventure, and responsible motorcycling. Organised by GMRA, the event will feature a range of activities including an off-road riding experience, pool party, games, entertainment sessions, networking opportunities, and community engagement activities.

    Beyond the excitement of motorcycles and the spirit of brotherhood among riders, the association aims to deliver a powerful message on road safety and responsible riding. Through this partnership, Ajay’s Cafe and GMRA seek to remind riders that every journey should end safely because the true joy of riding lies in returning home to loved ones.

    The initiative draws inspiration from Ajay’s Cafe’s philosophy of creating moments of happiness and togetherness. For the brand, the phrase “Happy Wali Feeling” extends beyond food and celebrations; it is equally about the peace of mind and joy experienced by families when their loved ones return home safely after every journey.

    Speaking about the initiative, Mr. Jaideep Solanki, Founder Director, Ajay’s Cafe, said

    “For me, motorcycling has always been more than a hobby – it is a passion that has introduced us to an incredible community of riders who share the same spirit of adventure, friendship and mutual respect. As members of GMRA, we have experienced first-hand the strong sense of brotherhood that exists within the riding fraternity. Our association with World Motorcycle Day is a celebration of that spirit.”

    “At Ajay’s Cafe, we believe that the most meaningful journeys are the ones that create memories and bring people closer together. At the same time, every rider carries a responsibility towards the loved ones waiting back home. The true joy of any ride lies in returning safely, because that’s when families experience the real ‘Happy Wali Feeling’. We are proud to stand alongside GMRA in celebrating the riding community and the values that unite it.” He added.

    GMRA has long been committed to promoting a culture of responsible riding while fostering a strong sense of brotherhood among motorcycle enthusiasts. The World Motorcycle Day celebrations will further strengthen this commitment by bringing together riders who share a common passion while advocating safe and disciplined riding practices.
