  • UAE – Future-Ready

    UAE’s exemplary journey from an average oil-driven economy has shown the World how to manage change and grow stronger. UAE has been a model for many on how to create a winning product for the end-users in a true sense. ‘Change for Better’ has been the bedrock of growth, steering the country to the global leadership position of today. The timely execution of decisions of its great visionary leaders has completely altered the growth trajectory.

    From allowing expatriates to buy property to building affordable real estate to new categories of 10 years Golden and 5-year Retirement, visas worked wonders for the real estate industry and drew huge inward investments besides boosting the consumption cycle.

    UAE demonstrated how to be resilient in the face of crisis, to remain as the future-ready springboard of growth. The Covid 19 vaccination rate has catapulted UAE to the list of top countries, besides its target to vaccinate the entire population by the end of 2021 free of cost is exemplary. It demonstrates the UAE’s commitment to the wellbeing of its people and the economy. Thanks to the vision of the top leadership, UAE stands at the vanguard of promoting regional and international inclusiveness, fostering cross border business opportunities and capital inflows between the two countries. The resumption of diplomatic ties with Israel and Qatar will also go a long way in promoting peace in the region and support the business growth and prosperity for the region.

    Thrust on the quality of international standard education and healthcare in the past two decades has made it one of the more sought-after places for expatriates and people around the World. The country’s safety, security and efficiency in limiting disruption has always attracted people from across the globe. By creating an ideal ecosystem to foster innovation, built on some visionary and radical changes like enabling a 100% ownership clause on the mainland, the country stands out in attracting entrepreneurs from around the globe. The flourishing Fintech industry of UAE is just the tip of the iceberg of more success stories to unfold.

    The resultant overall prosperity has grown significantly, propelling the country to 1st position in the Arab World and 15th globally in Kearney’s 2021 Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) Confidence Index.

    Keep calm as there are more to come, which would soon catapult UAE to the top quartile of the World Happiness Report of countries.

  • One Life, One Earth And Just One Purpose: Conserve At Solecraft

    August 21: For decades, the ongoing debate between the guardians of the mother earth and users of earth’s resources has resulted in reaching an impasse. The growth trajectory demands almost exhaustive usage of earth’s resources while the caretakers of this earth, people who love this very earth, have been crying hoarse about saving the earth. This debate has given strong wings to the people who want the planet to be a better place. Now they are going all out to follow the principles of 3R. Reduce. Reuse. Recycle. One such brand is making rapid strides in following these 3 Rs – Solecraft.

    The recent pandemic has made the world stop and notice what they have done to the earth’s available resources. It was a rude wake-up call for individuals when they had to work from home, which made them realize the hoarding of things they had done over the years. The founders Divya and Atul had perceived this issue a few years back, and hence, with the singular purpose of creating a need-based lifestyle, Solecraft was born. We receive from those who don’t need it, and we give it to those who need it. We receive old pieces of denim from people who do not need them anymore. We recycle, or as they say, upcycle, and create school kits like school bags, comfortable footwear, pencil cases, and other essentials, only for families who believe in educating their children but find it challenging given their circumstances and low income.

    Every time an average person thinks about helping an underprivileged child, Solecraft has already brought a smile to his or her face. Purely in terms of numbers, Solecraft has helped over 30,000 such children by assisting in their educational journey since its inception in July 2019. While you are reading this, the number has jumped a few notches already, and that’s the commitment to the cause we believe in.

    Divya and Atul, Founders, SoulCraft

    Solecraft is about creating a lifestyle where everyone focuses on bringing a smile to other people’s faces. To achieve that, we have gone that extra mile by integrating our operations backwards. We have roped in underprivileged ladies and women from the weaker economic sections of the society to convert these old pieces of denim into those magical looking school bags and other products. We attempt to find an unemployed workforce of women and give them a platform and a rightful opportunity to rise from extreme poverty and hunger to reach a life of dignity. We have reached out to Hindu minority women from Pakistan and have provided them with this opportunity to earn their living by working with Solecraft in creating these products.

    Along with these products for school children, we have also introduced a unique range of 100% sustainable and eco-friendly bags made out of the upcycled canvas. We have a host of women who are independent designers and contribute to converting these bags into trendy designer bags that can be used for your everyday functions and yet not lose the flavour of owning a branded bags.

    At Solecraft, the process of creating these bags is something worth remembering. A team of dedicated Solecraft members every day meet and talk to hundreds of people to encourage them to donate their old denim wears for this beautiful cause. Solecraft also runs donation drives at schools and colleges where students volunteer to bring their old and used pieces of denim. Collection boxes at Café, key societies of some of the prominent towns of the country where people leave their clothes. All the collected denim clothes are then washed with chemicals that are produced organically without causing any harm to the environment. Different kinds of pieces are then sorted out and sent to our production units, where the ladies convert these denim pieces into bags that make you look trendy and cool.

    Following the teaching of our parents, we just work with our hearts; the head follows. When we wish to help someone, the entire universe conspires with us to help those beautiful souls. Solecraft is not a company for us but an emotion that talks about sustainable living and practices it in every single step. Solecraft is a mission for us. We can now ship our bags and other products to all parts of the country and abroad. All our products can be seen on our websites www.thesolecraft.com. We aim to touch the lives of every single soul we can and bring them to adapt to this lifestyle.

  • If I weren’t a content creator, I’d probably be working for a dentist, says Laakshi Pathak

    Mumbai, August 20: Actress and content creator Laakshi Pathak, who is currently having a fruitful career, feels that If she wasn’t a content creator, she would probably be working for a dentist and would have planned to open her dental clinic someday.

    Talking about her journey, she says, “I was in my 3rd year of college when I started making videos on Musical.ly. I didn’t even plan to make it a career, but the audience liked what I did, and soon, I realized that this was my chance to pursue something that made me happy. Soon after, I joined a talent agency called Creators Nest. They helped me find my true passion. Nikhil Jerath Sir mentored me personally and helped me find what I was passionate about. I really owe my success to them.”

    Being an actor by chance, Laakshi reveals, “I never planned to be an actress; it just kind of happened. In fact, my parents expected me to be a doctor. But I kept making makeup videos. I’m glad I kept moving in this direction because makeup videos turned out to be a huge success. Creators Nest gave me the courage to chase my dreams, and I’m so grateful for that.”

    Sharing her experience of working in Mauka E Vardaat, she adds, “The experience was great! I learned a lot about acting while being on set. My co-stars were amazing and supported me. The feeling of facing the camera in such a professional setup was truly exciting. The best part about my work is that I absolutely love what I do. I get to connect with people. It’s awesome that people love watching my videos and genuinely care about me. And fortunately, I make money while doing what I love.”

    The entertainment industry is full of competition, but Laakshi feels that she stands out. “The one thing that makes me stand out is my willingness to try different things. I always welcome the chance to improve my skills. My one-of-a-kind personality and positivity are just a couple of things that make me stand out from the crowd,” she shares.

    Talking about her inspiration, Laakshi says, “My biggest inspiration is my father. He has taught me humility and hard work are key to achieving greatness. And of course, my mother always valued my opinion and supported me in everything I did. They both are my role models.”

    Laakshi has achieved so much at a young age. On this, she says, “I don’t know about calling myself successful so soon. I have so much more to accomplish, learn, improve and achieve if I want to be as successful as all those people whom I admire and look up to. I have a long way to go.”

    “Honestly, I am going with the flow and letting life take me where it goes. Also, I’m working on my acting skills! I’m feeling more confident with the way I am now, but If they ever make a remake of Om Shaanti Om, I’d love to play Shantipriya. I like everything about that character. I like her name; I like her outfits, and I even love the way she sounds,” Laakshi concludes.

It was a challenge for me, but the biggest thing I learned from working in the film was patience and focus.”

I was told about the cast after my audition, and I remember being absolutely ecstatic. I manifested that I want to do this movie,” he adds.

    “After signing the contract, I returned home to my family. They were delighted and proud of me. My mother was crying happy tears, and my father was distributing sweets to everyone. It was the highlight of my life. I watched the movie with my entire family, and the feeling was out of this world. My mom is proud of me, and that’s all that matters to me,” he says happily.
