  • Benu Sehgal: What Happens When a Woman Spends Two Decades Building Credibility in One of India’s Most Male-Dominated Industries

    Benu Sehgal: What Happens When a Woman Spends Two Decades Building Credibility in One of India’s Most Male-Dominated Industries

    New Delhi [India], June 02: India’s real estate sector is projected to reach nearly $1 trillion by 2030. Yet despite its scale and influence, it remains one of the country’s least gender-diverse industries. Recent industry reports suggest that women account for only around 11–12% of India’s real estate workforce, while leadership representation remains significantly lower.

    For Benu Sehgal, these numbers are not just statistics. They represent a reality she has navigated for over two decades.

    Today, as Director at Splendor Group, Benu Sehgal is recognized for her experience across retail development, real estate strategy, consumer understanding, and business leadership. With more than 40 years of overall professional experience and over 20 years in retail and real estate, she has witnessed the industry’s transformation from the inside while helping shape it along the way.

    When Sehgal entered the sector, women in leadership roles were uncommon. Boardrooms, site meetings, negotiations, and decision-making forums were overwhelmingly male.

    “The biggest challenge was never entering the room. It was ensuring your voice carried the same weight once you were inside it,” says Benu Sehgal.

    Rather than focusing on acceptance, Sehgal focused on performance.

    “For years, I watched people evaluate authority through gender before they evaluated competence. Fortunately, results have a way of changing conversations,” she says.

    Throughout her career, Sehgal has worked at the intersection of retail and real estate, industries where understanding people is often more important than understanding infrastructure.

    “Buildings can be replicated. Designs can be copied. What cannot be copied easily is a deep understanding of people,” she says.

    The industry today is changing. More women are entering development, consulting, architecture, sales, marketing, investments, and leadership roles. Women homebuyers and investors are also becoming an increasingly powerful force in shaping the market.

    Yet Sehgal believes the conversation must move beyond representation.

    “The goal should never be to be recognised as a woman leader. The goal should be to be recognised as a capable leader. Gender should not define credibility. Contribution should.”

    As her career evolved, so did her definition of success. She believes one of the biggest challenges facing industries today is the transfer of experience.

    “Experience should not retire with the professional. It should become a resource for the next generation,” says Sehgal.

    After spending decades building businesses, teams, and professional credibility, she is increasingly focused on sharing insights, creating perspective, and helping younger professionals shorten their learning curve.

    As India’s real estate sector continues to evolve, Benu Sehgal’s journey reflects more than personal success. It reflects the transformation of an industry learning to value capability over convention and the emergence of leaders who understand that the most valuable legacy is not what they build for themselves, but what they leave behind for others.

  • Cross Border Legal Practices are the Need of the Hour After Globalization and FDI in Legal Sector

    Cross Border Legal Practices are the Need of the Hour After Globalization and FDI in Legal Sector

    From left to right, Child & Child Managing Partners Adrian Biles & Robert Biles and SolicisLex Managing Partner Ameet Mehta.

    Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], June 01: With the opening of Foreign Direct Investments allowed in the Legal Sector by the Government of India and approval by the Bar Council of India, many law firms are going global.

    It is important that due to globalization, the integration of the Indian economy with the global markets through trade liberalization and foreign investments will enable Indian corporates to grow globally. But FDI in the Legal Sector is completely a game changer.

    Recently, one of the oldest law firms of the United Kingdom, Child and Child, which was established in the 1850s in London, had a tie-up and understanding with the Indian law firm SolicisLex based in Mumbai. This entails the exchange of legal work across borders in Europe, the UK, and CIS countries, exchange of legal interns for training, expansion of work in the non-litigation sector of legal work, and many more.

    Hence, Child and Child announced their India Desk and their new partnership with renowned Indian law firm SolicisLex, which entails that SolicisLex also gets access at the heart of London. Child & Child serves both UK-based and global clients, as well as many with business and personal interests that span multiple jurisdictions.

    With an increasing number of Indian nationals working and living in the UK, as well as those based abroad who are actively investing in the UK, Child and Child also decided to launch a dedicated India desk to meet their needs.

    They established Italian and Middle East desks already, which makes it both easy and effective for these groups to access the UK legal market, with native speakers and dual-qualified lawyers facilitating communication and anticipating the differences between the UK and other legal jurisdictions. The India Desk will provide the same strategic support, ensuring a seamless experience for clients with personal, commercial, or investment interests in the UK.

    “SolicisLex Advisory is an established powerhouse in the dynamic Indian legal market,” says Child & Child Managing Partner Adrian Biles. “We wanted to not only provide a London-based service for our clients but also work closely with a partner in India. SolicisLex Advisory is one of the top fifteen Indian law firms, with a client base and focus on excellence that matches Child & Child. We look forward to a productive and long partnership.”

    SolicisLex Managing Partner Ameet Mehta adds: “With the approval of Entry of Foreign Law Firms in India by the Bar Council of India and the Union Government’s approval, we pledge to strike a balance in strategic leadership, profitability, people management, but also maintaining market share. By fostering alignments with leaders like Child & Child, we wish to keep ourselves at pace with market leaders. This is our overall firm strategy.”

  • Urvashi Rautela’s amfAR Gala Cannes 2026 Beauty Look Featured Forever52’s Sensational Liquid Lipstick — Here’s Why Makeup Pros Trust The Brand

    Urvashi Rautela’s amfAR Gala Cannes 2026 Beauty Look Featured Forever52’s Sensational Liquid Lipstick — Here’s Why Makeup Pros Trust The Brand

    New Delhi [India], June 1: The Cannes Film Festival has always been more than just a celebration of cinema. It is where fashion, beauty, luxury, and celebrity culture come together to create some of the most talked-about moments of the year. And at the amfAR Gala Cannes 2026, one Indian celebrity who once again captured attention across social media was Urvashi Rautela.

    From her dramatic couture look to her glamorous beauty details, the actress ensured that every frame from the evening felt headline-worthy. While fashion pages and paparazzi accounts quickly began discussing her viral accessories and red-carpet appearance, beauty enthusiasts had their eyes fixed on another standout detail from the look — her flawless matte lips.

    The glamorous lip look seen on Urvashi for the amfAR Gala was created using the Forever52 Sensational Liquid Lipstick, a product that has steadily built a strong reputation within the professional makeup industry for its performance-driven formula and camera-ready finish.

    Unlike everyday celebrity beauty conversations where products are often casually mentioned, red carpet makeup at events like Cannes works differently. Every element of the look is carefully selected by professional makeup artists who work under pressure, tight timelines, bright camera flashes, changing lighting conditions, and long event hours. For celebrity appearances of this scale, makeup artists rely only on products they genuinely trust to perform.

    And that is exactly where Forever52 has built its identity over the years.

    Forever52 has become one of the most trusted brands within India’s professional makeup industry because its products are designed specifically for makeup artists and beauty professionals who need reliable performance on clients, celebrities, bridal makeup, editorial shoots, and high-glam events. The brand’s growing popularity among professionals comes from its ability to deliver products that combine strong pigmentation, long wear, comfort, and flawless finish — all essential requirements in professional artistry.

    Today, many of the country’s leading makeup artists trust Forever52 products while working with celebrities, creators, brides, and public figures because professional makeup is not just about colour — it is about performance. Products used on celebrities during international appearances need to stay intact through hours of photography, media interactions, lighting changes, and constant movement without compromising comfort or finish.

    Urvashi Rautela

    The Forever52 Sensational Liquid Lipstick fits perfectly into this professional beauty space. Designed as a modern matte lipstick, the formula is lightweight, comfortable, and intensely pigmented, making it ideal for long-wear glam without the heaviness often associated with traditional matte lipsticks. The smooth texture allows makeup artists to create clean, defined lip looks that remain polished for hours.

    Available in 25 versatile shades, the Sensational Liquid Lipstick collection has become especially popular among professionals because of its wide shade range that complements diverse Indian skin tones beautifully. From soft everyday neutrals to statement glam shades, the collection allows artists to create looks suited for both minimal beauty and dramatic red-carpet moments.

    Another factor that makes the product stand out among professionals is its comfortable wear. Celebrity makeup today is no longer only about looking glamorous in pictures — it also needs to feel effortless for the person wearing it. Lightweight formulas that remain comfortable through long appearances have become a major priority for makeup artists, especially during international events and award nights.

    For Urvashi Rautela’s amfAR Gala Cannes 2026 appearance, the Sensational Liquid Lipstick added sophistication and balance to the overall beauty look. While the outfit carried high-fashion drama and glamour, the lip look brought in elegance and refinement, tying the makeup together seamlessly. The result was a polished beauty moment that looked luxurious, modern, and red-carpet ready from every angle.

    As more beauty lovers began noticing and discussing the lip look online, it once again highlighted the growing influence of professional artistry in celebrity beauty trends. Increasingly, audiences today are paying attention not just to celebrity fashion but also to the products and techniques trusted by the artists behind these looks.

    This growing trust from professionals is also one of the reasons why Forever52 continues to dominate the professional beauty space in India today. The brand has positioned itself as a go-to choice for artists who need products that deliver consistency, versatility, and premium-quality results across every kind of makeup environment — from bridal studios to fashion shoots to global red carpets.

    At a time when beauty trends move faster than ever, products that continue to earn the trust of professionals naturally stand out. And with the Forever52 Sensational Liquid Lipstick making an appearance at one of the biggest global glamour events of the year, the product has now become part of one of Cannes 2026’s most talked-about beauty moments.

    Forever52 Sensational Liquid Lipstick

  • This Is Your Moment in Indian Legal History. Don’t Miss It.

    This Is Your Moment in Indian Legal History. Don’t Miss It.

    An open letter to India’s lawyers, retired judges and law students

    New Delhi [India], June 01: You chose law because you believed in something. Justice. Order. The idea that when things go wrong between people, there should be a fair, accessible, dignified way to make them right again.

    Today, India says yes to the four L’s — Liquidity, Labour, Land, and Law. The country is moving fast. But the legal system — the very institution you trained for, practised in, or are preparing to enter — is struggling to keep pace. Fifty million pending cases. Years of waiting. Citizens who cannot afford to fight for what is rightfully theirs. A profession full of talent, short on infrastructure.

    You already know this. What you may not know yet is that the infrastructure has now been built — and it needs you inside it.

    PrivateCourt.ai is not asking you to change what you do. It is asking you to do it better, farther, and faster than ever before.

    The platform is India’s most advanced AI-powered, end-to-end dispute resolution ecosystem. AI-driven intake and verification, document authentication, automated scheduling, real-time WhatsApp updates, postal tracking, hearing coordination, and multilingual support across 22 Indian languages — with pincode-based regional workflows that carry legal quality into every corner of India. You manage the resolution. The platform manages everything else.

    If You Are a Lawyer —

    You should not be spending your days chasing paperwork and coordinating logistics. You should be resolving disputes, advising clients, and building a practice that reflects the professional you worked hard to become. PrivateCourt.ai gives you that infrastructure. Join as a Mediator, Conciliator, or Case Manager. Earn consistently. Practice beyond your geography. The modern legal career is no longer about location or luck — it is about the right platform. This is that platform.

    If You Are a Retired Judge —

    The wisdom you accumulated across decades on the bench does not expire when your tenure does. India’s dispute resolution crisis is precisely the kind of problem that your experience was built to solve — and PrivateCourt.ai has built the environment to let you solve it. Join as an Arbitrator, Neutral Expert, or Advisor within a DPDP-aligned institution that honours the standard you held throughout your career. Your legacy is not complete. It is still being written.

    If You Are a Law Student —

    Your degree will open the door. What happens when you walk through it depends entirely on the experience you build before that moment arrives. PrivateCourt.ai offers you something no classroom can: live cases, real responsibility, AI-assisted workflows, multilingual legal environments and the mentorship of working professionals — part-time or full-time, on your terms. While your peers wait, you will already have a track record.

    The Platform Behind the Promise

    PrivateCourt.ai was built by Ankit Verma, a legal software developer, published author on dispute resolution, and a product leader with 17+ years of experience building accountability systems at a national scale. His goal was never to patch the existing system. It was to build the infrastructure that should have existed all along: fast, inclusive, technology-led, and built for every Indian. Every layer engineered within India, under TrackNext, with compliance and trust at its core. This is not a startup chasing scale. It is a mission to chase justice.

    The first generation of AI-powered legal professionals is being built today. Be in it.

    The legal revolution in India has already begun. The only question is whether your name appears among those who built it — or among those who watched it happen.

    The door is open. Walk through it at PrivateCourt.ai

  • Cordlife India’s “Save The Sibling” Initiative Brings New Hope for Thalassemia Families

    Cordlife India’s “Save The Sibling” Initiative Brings New Hope for Thalassemia Families

    New Delhi [India], June 01: Cordlife India’s “Save The Sibling” initiative is giving new hope to families affected by thalassemia. Conceived and supported by Cordlife India, the project was launched on 14 November 2022 with the aim of helping children suffering from severe thalassemia through advanced stem cell treatment.

    The first successful case under this program was completed on 16 October 2025. The treatment involved a 7-year-old boy, Akshoy Sarker Dhrubo, who was suffering from Hb E beta-thalassemia, a severe blood disorder. Since childhood, he depended on regular blood transfusions to survive. Frequent transfusions also caused dangerous iron overload in his body.

    Doctors could not find a fully matched stem cell donor within the family. To overcome this challenge, the family underwent a special IVF procedure with advanced genetic testing under the guidance of Dr. Rajeev Agarwal and his team. The process ensured that the newborn baby would be healthy and a perfect stem cell match for the elder brother.

    After the birth of baby Aradhya, stem cells were collected from the newborn’s umbilical cord blood and safely cryogenically preserved through Cordlife India, highlighting the potential of cord blood banking in supporting life-saving treatments. The child’s mother, Mrs. Madhabi Rani, also donated stem cells as a half-matched donor under the treatment of Dr. Joydeep Chakrabarty and his medical team.

    Doctors then performed a combined stem cell transplant using both the mother’s stem cells and the newborn sibling’s cord blood stem cells. After treatment and careful medical care, the child recovered successfully. He no longer needs blood transfusions and is now stable and healthy.

    A significant part of the IVF, cord blood preservation, and transplantation expenses was facilitated through support extended under Cordlife India’s “Save The Sibling” initiative.

    This successful outcome highlights the growing importance of stem cell banking and the potential of preserved cord blood in supporting life-saving treatments. It also underscores how preserving a newborn’s stem cells with Cordlife today can serve as a valuable biological resource for the future, offering families access to advanced therapeutic options when they may need them most.

  • Kapil Dhiman Releases The Unmeasured Self, A Quantum-Era Inquiry into Selfhood, Algorithms, and the Soul

    Kapil Dhiman Releases The Unmeasured Self, A Quantum-Era Inquiry into Selfhood, Algorithms, and the Soul

    New Delhi [India], June 01: The growing global appetite for big-idea non-fiction that connects science, philosophy, and the human condition continues to reshape contemporary writing, and entrepreneur-author Kapil Dhiman is contributing to that evolving genre with the release of The Unmeasured Self: Reclaiming What Algorithms Cannot See, his second full-length work.

    This book serves as a philosophical lens to examine selfhood, society, and meaning in an age increasingly shaped by algorithms. Positioned at the intersection of science writing, behavioural philosophy, and contemplative non-fiction, The Unmeasured Self opens with a deceptively simple question.

    The familiar adage that “you are the average of the five people you spend the most time with” was true for most of human history. But for the average human in the 21st century, those five companions are no longer people at all – they are technologies.

    The book begins from that observation and builds outward across four parts, moving from the binary world the industrial age trained us to live inside, to a quantum reframing of identity, to civilizations as collective qubits, to what the author calls a spiritual synthesis.

    At the centre of the book is a deliberate metaphor.

    Classical computers reduce reality to bits – definite zeroes and ones, certain, deterministic, measurable. Quantum computers work in qubits, which exist in superposition, holding contradictory possibilities at once until measurement collapses them into a single outcome.

    The Unmeasured Self argues that human beings, too, have been compressed into bit-like categories – successful or failed, productive or lazy, healthy or unhealthy – by the metrics of school systems, workplaces, social platforms, and algorithmic feeds. The book invites the reader to consider the possibility that we have always been qubits being measured as bits, and that the cost of that compression is the part of the self the world’s instruments were never built to see.

    Across forty-six chapters, the book moves through a deliberately wide arc.

    Part I examines how algorithms now occupy the social and emotional space once held by family, neighbours, and community – drawing on cases from WhatsApp in India, WeChat in China, mobile-money networks across Africa, and algorithmic companionship in Japan.

    Part II turns to quantum mechanics – Schrödinger’s cat, the Bloch sphere, Google’s Sycamore experiment – and asks what these ideas mean for how we hold contradiction, uncertainty, and identity.

    Part III scales the metaphor up, treating civilizations as living qubits, from Athens and Baghdad to Florence, and reading generations as waves of probability through the Greatest Generation, the Boomers, the Millennials, Gen Z, and Generation Alpha.

    Part IV synthesises physics, psychology, and mysticism into a final framework the book calls “living as a quantum soul.”

    Rather than presenting itself as either a science book or a self-help book, The Unmeasured Self sits in a deliberately hybrid register. It draws on Jonathan Haidt, Cal Newport, Tristan Harris, Iain McGilchrist, Robin Dunbar, Nicholas Christakis, and James Hillman, but does not aim to summarise their work. Its argument is that contemporary culture has run out of room inside binary categories, and that a quantum vocabulary – superposition, entanglement, error correction, the observer effect – gives the modern reader a more honest set of tools for the parts of life that refuse to behave like data.

    Commenting on the book, Dhiman has stated that the work began as a private inquiry rather than a public project.

    “This is the first thing I have built that cannot be measured in revenue, valuation, or headlines,” he has written of the book. “It is the work I have been doing on myself, all along – quietly, alone, before anyone was watching.”

    The book’s epilogue, titled The Silence Between Notes, closes with the line, “The book ends here. But your experiment begins now.”

    Dhiman is the Founder and CEO of Quranium, the quantum-secure Layer-1 infrastructure for institutional finance, and a Chartered Accountant who cleared the examination in his first attempt. Before founding Quranium he led the Web 3.0 business at PwC and built MetaStudios, named Metaverse Startup of the Year in 2023.

    The son of an Indian Air Force officer, he grew up across the country, competed as a sportsman at the national level, was the Best Cadet of his National Cadet Corps battalion, and worked as a music producer with over ninety songs sold before turning fully to technology. He has read, by his own account, more than a thousand books, and undertook a self-directed multi-year study of psychology, sociology, and the Civil Services syllabus to deepen his understanding of human and institutional behaviour.

    Dhiman’s excellence has been covered by global tier-one international media including WIRED, CNBC, Entrepreneur, Cointelegraph, Nokia’s research division, CEOWORLD as a thought leader and celebrated as an awarded Entrepreneur. He has spoken at more than 300 international engagements across the globe, including a TEDx address on the post-quantum transition, and hosts the Quantum Minds podcast, heard in 35 countries. He is a founding member of the DavosWeb3 Roundtable and a signatory of the Davos Declaration. In 2026, he was honoured with the Rashtra Seva Award in India for his contribution to technology and digital resilience.

    The release of The Unmeasured Self also reflects the broader rise of Indian-author non-fiction that engages with global ideas on their own terms. Over the past decade, readers – particularly in the post-pandemic, post-AI moment — have shown a growing appetite for books that bridge science and meaning, technology and interiority, rather than treat them as separate genres.

    In that context, The Unmeasured Self enters a conversation that includes Jonathan Haidt’s recent work on the rewiring of childhood, Cal Newport’s writing on attention, and Iain McGilchrist’s two-volume case for the right hemisphere of the brain – while making a distinctly Indian contribution to it.

    With the release of his second book, anticipation is expected to grow around Dhiman’s continuing body of work at the intersection of technology and the human condition. The author has indicated that further writing in the same lane will follow.

    Los Angeles [U.S.A.], May 26: Speculation is quietly building around a potential feature film inspired by the life of Sundar Pichai, with growing attention from entertainment circles in both the United States and India. While no official announcement has been made, conversations surrounding the possibility of a biographical drama based on Pichai’s rise from South India to Silicon Valley have continued to gain momentum in recent months.

    The rumored project would reportedly explore Pichai’s journey from a modest upbringing in Tamil Nadu, India, to becoming one of the most influential figures in global technology. From his academic path and early years in engineering to his rise through Google’s leadership ranks, the story has increasingly been viewed by industry observers as naturally suited for cinematic adaptation.

    Sources familiar with the independent film landscape in Texas say that a Dallas-based studio called Sweet Dreams Media has quietly attracted attention while developing ambitious material under the radar. Though not widely known outside independent filmmaking circles, the studio has reportedly built recognition through regional festival success and smaller-scale productions, leading to speculation that it could be connected in some capacity to the rumored biopic.

    At this stage, no director, distributor, or production timeline has been publicly confirmed. However, the continued silence surrounding the project has only intensified curiosity about whether early development conversations may already be taking place behind closed doors.

    Reports have also linked emerging South Indian actor Kamalesh Muthu to the speculation surrounding the film. Muthu, who has been gradually gaining visibility across Tamil, Telugu, and Malayalam-language cinema, is rumored to be under consideration for a role connected to the project, although no official casting details have surfaced.

    Industry observers note that the idea of a South Indian actor portraying one of the most globally recognized Indian-born executives would represent a notable moment for cross-cultural storytelling in mainstream international cinema. At the same time, sources stress that the focus remains firmly on the scale and significance of Pichai’s story itself, rather than on any individual company or performer reportedly connected to the early discussions.

    There has also been unverified speculation regarding potential interest from major technology stakeholders, though no evidence currently confirms any corporate involvement. For now, the project remains firmly in the realm of speculation.

    Still, with Hollywood increasingly embracing globally driven narratives and internationally rooted stories, many believe it may only be a matter of time before the life of Sundar Pichai finds its way to the big screen.
