    Raseshwari Devi Ji: An Inspiration to millions

    Read Time:3 Minute, 43 Second

    Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], January 12: An exceptional spiritual leader, extraordinary orator, and author of the present time, reverend Raseshwari Devi Ji has transformed the lives of millions through her works. Endowed with immense spiritual wisdom, love, and compassion, she has been an inspiration for the youth, loving for the children, pleasing to the seniors and blissful for the seekers.

    Early life: “This little child will go on to preach Sri Krishna Bhakti all over”. This was prophesied by her spiritual master Jagadguru Swami Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj, when she was only 21 days old. It was on 12 January 1968, and she was born in a devout Punjabi Brahmin family in the city of Bhilai, Chhattisgarh. Through their steadfast conduct and life full of devotion, her parents led with her a foundation for the world of spirituality. She used to have a rare talent and excelled in her studies and amazed everyone with her exceptional prowess during her school days.   She embarked on her mission when she was just 21 years of age, which was just after her graduation, followed by masters when she was given a holy robe by her spiritual master in the year 1989.

    Unnatural yet a fact: Under the benign eyes of her spiritual master, she learned the esoteric philosophy of Vedas, shastras, and Puranas in just 6 months of time. Devi Ji’s discourses focus on the principles of Sanatana Dharma and Shri Krishna Bhakti. Her approach is marked with simple, lucid language and everyday life examples that make the seekers easy to grasp. Her mellifluous kirtan/bhajan appeals to everyone alike and penetrates their heart, and leave them spellbound.

    Founding of Braj Gopika Seva Mission: For rendering a systematic shape to the spiritual interest of seekers and to benefit everyone, a unique spiritual institution, ‘Braj Gopika Seva Mission’ was founded. Devi Ji is the co-founder of this non-profit organization. The sole purpose of the mission is to fill everyone’s heart and consciousness with transcendental joy by lighting the lamp of true knowledge of human life and dispelling the darkness of ignorance. Ever since its inception in the year 1999, the mission has been consistently on the road and working for the spiritual upliftment of people.

    Yuva Adhyatmik Guru:  Her magic words make people feel electrified with positive vibrations within. Her mission of youth upliftment made the young generation recognize their immense potential and impacted their persona indelibly. She organises retreats for youth and guides them on how to live life amidst myriad challenges and overcome them comfortably with the right wisdom. For her immense contribution to the upliftment of youth for over two decades, she was felicitated with the prestigious “Yuva adhyatmik guru” puraskar by the esteemed institution M.I.T Pune in the year 2018. “You must take it to heart that harmony between materialism and spiritualism can only bring happiness and peace in the world, and there is no other way. The reason for this is that we are not one but two – the transient human body, which is made of five elements and the intransient soul, which is divine and eternal. Therefore, knowledge is of two types – material and spiritual. Material knowledge is necessary to sustain the body, and spiritual knowledge is essential for your inner being, the soul. Material knowledge is futile without the unison of spiritual knowledge. People these days are getting separated from the root, the root of their existence, and our root is God and spiritual wisdom. If God goes away from our life, then the goal of our life goes away. When the goal of our life is going, then the meaning of life goes. When the meaning of life goes, morality is goes. When morality goes, life becomes like death. That is why you are requested to acquire holistic knowledge, make a fine balance, and sustain a dignified life. Be good leaders of society, your country, and the world by large.” She told while addressing the youth during the felicitation.

    The whole world is mesmerized by the fragrance of the magical personality of Raseshwari Devi Ji for her dedication to the spiritual upliftment of mankind. We extend our gratitude and congratulate Devi Ji on her 55th appearance day.www.raseshwarideviji.org

  • ​​​​Indian society’s stereotypes about Married women have been broken by Pooja Parmeshwar, who won Mrs. India Queen

    ​​​​Indian society’s stereotypes about Married women have been broken by Pooja Parmeshwar, who won Mrs. India Queen

    Read Time:3 Minute, 18 Second

    Mrs. Pooja Parmeshwar, winner of Mrs. India Queen Season 2 and running candidate of Mrs. Universe 2022-2023, breaks her silence on Indian society stereotypes.

    New Delhi (India), January 10: Tradition dictates that women in Indian households should play the stereotyped role of a woman, which includes caring for her husband, children, and family with a job (if the lady wishes to). It is Mrs. Pooja Parmeshwar who stands firm against these stereotypes. There have been many criticisms of married Indian women participating in beauty pageants and choosing to model as a career because of stereotypical ideas about how they should dress and be more focused on their families. But Pooja hails from a family who understands the essential need attached to fulfilling one’s dream.

    Being from a middle-class Indian family with a specific mindset about the glam/modelling industry, Pooja has come a long way toward her dreams. She has always dreamt of being a model and representing India. But, as the story of every Indian woman goes about making sacrifices, she had to give up on her dreams due to the lack of family support towards her this dream. Her family always gives importance to education, and with that, Pooja completed her Inter-CA and worked at Deloitte for a few years before getting married. As she enjoys spending time with children, she also did a course in early childhood development and now works as a teacher in a preschool. But somewhere, the fire and passion in her to live her dream wasn’t resting.

    RJ Pritam Singh, the fame of Bigg Boss 8, also known as Pritam Pyaare, says, “Pooja is multitalented and came a long way, representing herself, her culture, family, and friends. She is the real woman of today. Woman of substance, beauty with a brain and winner of hearts. All the best to her in her future endeavours. God bless her to keep shining star.”

    Actor Trupti Khamkar, recently seen with Bhoomi Pednekar in Govinda Naam Mera, added, ” I have seen Pooja very closely from her day one on this planet. She has always been genuinely truthful, having a reality check of situations around her, at the same time being courageous to dream big and do whatever it takes to make them come true.”

    Pooja being strong, vocal, independent, and passionate, determined to never give up, convinced her family and brought them on the same page. Even after marriage, having a kid, alongside pursuing her duties as a daughter, mother and wife, she persevered in her dream and won her first beauty pageant as Mrs.India Queen Season 2, which happened in June 2022, with strong support her husband, mother in law and family. Her mother, brother, and aunt couldn’t be more proud of her achievements. Her stairwell will not end here. She is all set to represent India at Mrs. Universe 2022-23 and fulfil her teenage goal.

    Commenting on this, Mrs. Pooja Parmeshwar says,” Although I have been buried in parenting and wifehood for many years, I have always wanted to represent India, and it has finally come true. I find it a blessing that my family understands me. I still believe that if you have it in you and decide to achieve something, that fire within you will shine through, and you can make your close and dear ones believe in you. There are no words to describe how it feels to make your dream come true after the struggle every married woman faces when she has to make a choice. I would want every married woman to pursue her dream and wish every family would break out of the stereotypical Indian mentalities as mine did .”

  • Glam Onn Calendar 2023 thematic world promises to bring back those iconic Bollywood trends that got folks at the edge of the seats

    Glam Onn Calendar 2023 thematic world promises to bring back those iconic Bollywood trends that got folks at the edge of the seats

    Read Time:3 Minute, 40 Second

    Parimal Mehta, CEO, Blanckanvas Media Pvt. Ltd

    Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], January 10: Here’s to starting 2023 with a stellar, glamorous photoshoot that will recreate iconic moments from blockbusters given to us by our very own film industry. Glam Onn calendar, 2023, will follow a thematic world and promises to bring back those iconic Bollywood trends that got us at the edge of our seats, filled with plush emotions.

    The project is set to be helmed by the team at Blanckanvas, a group of creative individuals that often go sideways and produce content that leaves us in awe. This is Blanckanvas’ 4th installation in the calendar series, fulfilling an overwhelming response that came from the last two. The theme for this year’s calendar is locked under the name of “Be Bollywood” and is set to capture the evergreen essence of iconic characters through their very style. It will closely follow the apparel worn by stars themselves while filming scenes from hits like Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gham, Padmavat, Bahubali, Ram-Leela, Devdas and many more.

    While the theme, costumes and vibe for this year are set, the calendar would still need a super-cast, a renowned photographer, a seasoned makeup crew and an ace stylist to be a part of this project. So Blanckanvas went out and did what they certainly do best – sign a solid crew! This year’s calendar will feature stars from the fashion industry and Bollywood itself. Actors like Anupriya Goenka, Vishal Singh, Shruti Sinha, Srishty Rode, Mir Sarwar, Mrunal Jain, Arti Singh, Nyra Banerjee, Rajiv Adatia, Tanya Sharma, Asmita Sood, Karishma Modi, are set to join the calendar among many others and turn up the heat. But what’s a calendar without supermodels? Staying true to the tradition, the team went on to sign supermodels like Prateikk Jain, Vaibhav Maurya, Jitesh Nikam, Kavita Kharayat, Iris Maity, Manasi Moghe, Pooja Singh, Lakshya Sharma and Vaibhav Maurya. With the casting through, it was now time to get a visionary on board who also had the ability to seamlessly execute the planned photographs. Sayan Sur Roy, a renowned photographer in the industry who has seasoned experience working with celebrities, is all set to helm this project with Blanckanvas. But it doesn’t end there, does it? To complete the crew and make the calendar a raging success, the team still needed an able stylist who could not only capture the essence of these Bollywood hits but could also bring in a fresh flavour of originality and lay it all down to fit perfectly in a recreation sequence of iconic Bollywood moments. Rehan Shah, a celebrity stylist, showed keen interest in being part of the calendar, and it was certainly a no-brainer to have him on board as the lead stylist on the project. To fit in the last piece of the puzzle, an element that cannot go unnoticed and an obvious factor to influence the project’s success was a team of make-up artists that have the ability to go full glam but also know how to steer clear of making it look like an overdone job. Consequently, the Bombay School of Makeup & Hair were hired to do the job.

    Furthermore, the project will be powered by Waman Hari Pethe Jewellers and co-powered by Amaze1. IRA Women are set to be content partners, and Nikon India Pvt. Ltd., the best in the business of cameras, have signed up as Shot on a partner. Parimal Mehta, the CEO at Blanckanvas Media Pvt. Ltd., says, “We’re always looking to build affinity with projects like Glam Onn. Brands today need a strong presence, and presence is only felt with quality work. At Blanckanvas, we’re on the continuum of pursuing milestones, one after the other, with honest hard work that often produces an output that is top-notch. I’m proud to have a team that shares this philosophy, and I’m glad to have them on board for projects that test creative capabilities.”

    The Glam Onn Calendar, 2023, is all set to launch in mid-January 2023 and promises to take us back and fill us with nostalgia for watching iconic Bollywood scenes.

More than 70 brands from India are supporting the global movement, and the number is still growing.

Blue Tribe aims to awaken a lifestyle change among non-vegetarian food lovers to opt for options that are a conscious choice towards the healing process of mother earth.

With Earthmade products, too, our aim would always be to support you in this journey by offering vegan as well as organic products that help sustain a healthy lifestyle and a better planet.”

    Dr. Vidya, Chief Innovation Officer of Hatti Kaapi, expressed happiness at supporting Veganuary and said, “Protecting the planet has been a significant goal for Hatti Kaapi, and in the recent past, vegan food giveaways are popular among many initiatives that we have taken up. Veganuary is our favourite, and we are thrilled to be a part of this effort; big thanks to Veganuary for getting people to participate in the Plant-based movement and to make veganism a mainstream lifestyle.”

    Vimal Sharma, CEO & Founder of SMOOR Chocolates, noted, “Our customers have always admired us for our authentic menu, and it was reflected in how they have demanded and loved our vegan dishes. Vegan is emerging as one of the most preferred dietary options for the health benefits it offers. We are happy to take a step further in the direction by participating in Veganuary 2023.”

    As part of their employee engagement programmes, companies are educating employees on the options of healthy eating as a way to promote employee health and wellbeing. India’s leading pharmaceutical company- Dr. Reddy’s Laboratories- is encouraging their staff to try vegan this January as part of the Veganuary Workplace Challenge.

    Veganuary’s India head Prashanth Vishwanath welcomed these developments and said, “I am thrilled to have so much support for Veganuary from celebrities and companies alike. It shows the enormous interest Indians have in veganism and that vegan foods are the next big thing in the market. Our partnerships show that veganism is now mainstream and reflects a conscious choice to live a healthy, compassionate, planet-friendly life with zero compromises on taste and nutrition.”

    Note to editor-

    Veganuary is a global charity that encourages people worldwide to try vegan for January and beyond. It was founded in 2014, and since then, more than 2.5 million people have taken the 31-day plant-based pledge from almost every country in the world. With campaign hubs now in Germany, the USA, Brazil, Chile, Argentina, India and the UK, Veganuary has truly become a global phenomenon. This New Year’s revolution has also been embraced by businesses, with hundreds of companies taking part in Veganuary last year, launching more than 1540 new vegan products and menu items.

    2023 is Veganuary’s 10th global anniversary. Veganuary is free to join, and people can sign-up at veganuary.com to receive our Celebrity eCookbook, the Official Veganuary Starter Kit, and 31 daily emails packed with nutritional info, delicious recipes, meal plans, and helpful advice.

  • ‘India: A Startup Nation’ Event Featuring TV Mohandas Pai Held by LJ University’s Antrapreneur, the Business Incubator

    ‘India: A Startup Nation’ Event Featuring TV Mohandas Pai Held by LJ University’s Antrapreneur, the Business Incubator

    Read Time:2 Minute, 2 Second

    Ahmedabad (Gujarat) [India], January 2: Startups are quickly gaining traction in India, making our nation the third-largest startup economy in the world. To discuss this and the road ahead for startups, Antrapreneur, the Business Incubator run by LJ University, Ahmedabad, held an event called ‘India: A Startup Nation.’ The event was held on December 29th.

    The event featured Shri TV Mohandas Pai, a chartered accountant who is an ex-director of Infosys and a Padma Shri Award winner. He is currently the chairman of Manipal Global Education. He was introduced by Amitabh Shah, founder of Yuva Unstoppable, who briefed the audience about Pai’s incredible journey.

    Pai discussed the Indian startup environment at length. According to him, a focus on technology is what is needed to make sure that Indian startups are both scalable and profitable. He said that Indians excel at both tech and managing startups. India has been exporting tech services to so many countries. And Indian-origin employees are also preferred by unicorns in the US. So, this deadly combination could work out in the favour of Indian startups as well. They have the potential to become as powerful and as popular as the unicorns of the West.The inspiring session was attended by many investors, startup founders as well as teenpreneurs. It was followed by a Q&A session hosted and moderated by Antrapreneur CEO Viral Shah. He also played a massive role in motivating the audience of budding and seasoned entrepreneurs. “Startup ecosystem flourishes with co-incubation, co-investments and co-operation,” Shah said. His inspiring words resonated with the audience.

    The session also raised questions about why Ahmedabad, which has been a hub of business, has so far not produced many unicorns.

    Both Pai and Amitabh Shah also talked about how more startups could help Ahmedabad and the Indian economy grow faster. Startups could also play a role in uplifting education and health standards in India.

    The event inspired the young entrepreneurs in the audience to work hard and make Ahmedabad a startup hub just like Delhi and Bengaluru because the city and its citizens have high potential and can achieve this goal.

    Surat, January 3: Adding another delectable dish to its offerings, Ajay’s Takeaway Food, the fastest-growing QSR Chain in Gujarat, has ushered in the New Year by launching an All New Cheesy Pizza Range on Sunday.

    The new range of scrumptious pizzas is extremely cheesy and yet delivers the authentic Indian taste, making it an unmissable combination for Ajay’s customers. The All New Cheesy Pizza range varieties feature three exotic pizzas and two basic pizzas.

    The real magic is in the Exotic Pizza variety with Classic Corn Pizza and Tandoori Paneer Pizza, while those who live spicy food can enjoy the Super Schezwan Pizza. The new pizzas come with a mix of delectable toppings, indulgent mozzarella cheese, and sauces exclusively made to ensure an authentic and heavenly taste.

    “We are excited to launch the All-New Cheesy Pizza range and fulfil our customers’ wishes. The introduction of Super Cheesy pizzas reiterates our philosophy of focusing on quality, innovation, taste, and a customer-first approach while providing affordable food experiences. We are aiming to give our customers the real stringy and cheesy pizza experience with a flavour of India, and we are confident customers will love it,” said Ajay Solanki, Director of Ajay’s Takeaway Food.

    The succulent toppings sprinkled with flavourful garnishes on a crisp base make for a great authentic pizza experience. Starting at just Rs. 60, the Margherita and Veg Delight pizzas are a deal meal. The new range replaces its previous varieties of pizzas.

    Ajay’s began operations in 2014, and delivering what customers want is one of the biggest reasons behind its success. It introduced new burger favours, French fries with dip, and now the All New Cheesy Pizza range to offer customers a wide variety of choices. Known as the common man’s food joint, Ajay’s is on a mission to serve high-quality food at affordable rates.

    To make its menu even more affordable, Ajay’s offers exclusive offers on purchasing various combos through the ‘Ajay’s Good Food Official’ app. Ajay’s has witnessed phenomenal growth in the past couple of years. From just 13 outlets in July 2020, it has expanded to 123 outlets in the south and central Gujarat and has just recently allocated its master franchise in Ahmedabad for its North Gujarat expansion.
