New Delhi [India], December 23: The Angel Express Foundation recently organised a magnificent Christmas gala at Bandstand, dedicated to bringing holiday cheer to underprivileged youth. Led by prominent social activist Preeti B Choksi and Nikhil M Ruparel, the gathering successfully turned the seaside landmark into a vibrant center for celebration and community impact.

The primary objective of the program was to deliver a magical holiday experience to children who rarely encounter such festivities. More than just a party, the afternoon functioned as a vital reminder of the collective responsibility needed to support Mumbai’s marginalised communities.

The charitable mission received significant backing from esteemed political figures, including MP Varsha Gaikwad, MLA Aslam Shaikh, Tulip Miranda (President, Mumbai Mahila Congress), and corporators Akhilesh Yadav and Virendra Choudry, all of whom praised the efforts of Preeti B Choksi.

Adding to the event’s lustre, several high-profile entertainment personalities stepped forward to champion the cause. Among the notable attendees were Peta Model & Influencer Rozlyn Khan, Jolly LLB 3 actress Natasha Fernandez, TV & OTT actress Shaily Priya, and reality show ‘Society’ star Gargi Kundu.

Rather than making brief appearances, these celebrities immersed themselves in the festivities, leading energetic dance routines and engaging in heartfelt conversations with the kids. A standout moment occurred during the gift-giving ceremony, where the stars personally handed out presents and shared meaningful interactions with the young attendees.

Reflecting on the day’s success, Preeti B Choksi stated, “Our mission was to move beyond a simple holiday gathering to foster a true sense of community and joy for these children. Our commitment remains focused on connecting the glamour of our city with its profound social obligations.”

The celebration wrapped up with a collective pledge from the guests and organisers to remain dedicated to the growth and empowerment of the city’s underprivileged youth.

New Delhi [India], December 20: At a time when fast fashion continues to dominate the global industry, designer Gaurav Katta has emerged as a quiet yet significant force in preserving India’s artisanal heritage. Through his label, Katta has consistently focused on reviving traditional craftsmanship while adapting it thoughtfully for contemporary luxury.

His work is deeply rooted in India’s craft clusters, where he collaborates closely with skilled artisans to sustain and reintroduce time-honoured techniques that are gradually fading. By bridging heritage with modern design sensibilities, Katta’s creations retain cultural authenticity while speaking to an international audience.

A defining element of the Gaurav Katta label is its use of real silver zardosi embroidery, a centuries-old technique historically associated with royalty. Beyond ornamentation, zardosi once functioned as a form of wealth preservation, with precious metal threads woven into garments, making them enduring objects of artistic and material value. Katta’s continued use of this craft reflects a long-term commitment to preserving its integrity while recontextualising it within modern couture.

For Katta, fashion is not merely an aesthetic pursuit but a medium of storytelling where texture and technique meets tradition. His approach ensures that the artisans behind these crafts receive recognition and livelihood. In recognition of his contribution to Indian fashion and craftsmanship, Gaurav Katta was recently featured in Forbes India’s November–December 2025 edition, under the article “Game-Changing Leaders You Should Know About.” The feature marks an important milestone and is regarded by the designer as an immense honour.

Looking ahead, Katta plans to expand his presence internationally, with aspirations to showcase his work in Paris and New York. His vision is to position Indian heritage at the centre of global luxury which will redefine couture as something rooted in legacy, craftsmanship, and enduring cultural value.

New Delhi [India], December 18: TANTOM, an élevé lifestyle fashion brand, is wrought from boundless ambition and a singular expression of individuality. Its meticulously refined aesthetic blends cultivated urban luxury, elevated preppy, and luxe essentials—an evolving design language that now finds expression as the brand marks its second anniversary with The Vegan Skin Capsule.

This collection marks a shift toward highly specialised garment construction, featuring articles that are rarely seen in the ethical fashion space, such as the Vegan Leather Puffer Jacket and Malay Python-inspired textures.

The Mastery of Form: Transcending the Conventional

While much of the industry remains anchored in mass-produced basics, Tantom has spent its first two years perfecting a reputation for high-concept design. The new capsule collection demonstrates the brand’s ability to replicate the complex aesthetics of animal textures through entirely ethical, modern engineering:

• The Vegan Leather Puffer: A complex fusion of high-grade vegan leather and technical outerwear construction, offering a distinct aesthetic.
• The Malay Python Hoodie: A standout piece utilising intricate printing and textile techniques to achieve a high-luxury exotic look without animal harm.
• Vegan Fur Jackets: Richly textured outerwear designed to provide the warmth and weight of traditional fur through advanced synthetic craftsmanship.

Defining the Tantom Framework: Capsules and Essentials

As the brand matures, under the vision of Founder Mr Rajveer Singh, TANTOM has organised its catalog into two key categories, establishing a clear and refined structure to serve a global audience better:

• Capsule Collections: These serve as the brand’s “innovation labs,” where unique, art-driven pieces like the Vegan Skin series are released in limited runs.
• Essentials: A core line of high-quality, everyday luxury garments that focus on comfort and longevity.

A Two-Year Journey Toward a Global Vision

Since founding TANTOM, Mr Singh has remained focused on a singular objective: building a global fashion house from Rajasthan that competes on design, not just price. This two-year milestone celebrates the brand’s ability to scale while maintaining a level of product variety and detail that is difficult to find elsewhere.

“Tantom was built to do what others aren’t doing,” says Rajveer. “Completing two years is a moment to look at our roadmap. We are moving beyond simple clothing to create specialised articles like our python-look hoodies and vegan leather puffers. Our focus remains on making an Indian brand a recognised name in global commerce through exclusivity and ethical responsibility.”

Looking Forward: Scale and Social Impact

As Tantom continues its journey, the brand’s growth is tied to a larger vision of national contribution:

• Global Positioning: Taking the “Made in India” label into the luxury ethical markets of the world.
• Employment: Creating opportunities for local artisans and professionals as the brand’s footprint expands.
• Product Leadership: Continuing to release articles that challenge the status quo of the fashion industry.

As Tantom enters this new era, it remains committed to the belief that the future of global fashion is not merely found in what we wear, but in the integrity and innovation behind the stitch.

New Delhi [India], December 18: Mahesh Mankar’s life story stands as one of India’s most compelling modern success narratives — a journey that began behind the desk of a government bank and rose to the heights of becoming one of the richest astrologers in India. His transformation reflects unwavering belief, relentless discipline, and a deep-rooted connection with India’s ancient occult sciences.

Although Mahesh Mankar had a natural inclination towards Astrology, Numerology, and Vastu from an early age, family responsibilities led him to take up a stable government bank job. Stability, however, could not silence his calling. Destiny had larger plans in store.

The Early Journey: A Bank Clerk with an Uncommon Calling

Before gaining global recognition as a spiritual mentor and entrepreneur, Mahesh Mankar worked as a bank clerk in Nagpur. While his professional life revolved around routine banking responsibilities, his evenings were devoted to studying ancient scriptures, decoding charts, and deepening his understanding of occult sciences.

What initially began as a personal pursuit soon turned into a mission.

He started guiding friends, colleagues, and local residents. His predictions were known for their accuracy, his remedies for their practicality, and his guidance for its life-changing impact. Word of mouth spread rapidly, and his reputation grew organically.

Recognising his true purpose, Mahesh Mankar made the boldest decision of his life — resigning from a secure government job to pursue Astrology full-time. That decision became the defining turning point of his journey.

Rise to Becoming One of India’s Richest Astrologers

Today, Mahesh Mankar is widely regarded as one of the richest and most influential astrologers in India. His success is built on knowledge, trust, innovation, and a visionary approach to spiritual entrepreneurship.

From a modest middle-class background, he has created a powerful ecosystem spanning spiritual services, education, and products — serving clients and students across India and globally.

Assets, Ventures, and Entrepreneurial Growth

His journey of growth is reflected in his expansive ventures and lifestyle indicators, including premium real estate assets, luxury vehicles, and diversified investments across multiple sectors.

More importantly, his success is anchored in the institutions and platforms he has built — combining spirituality with modern business practices.

Asnuva: Redefining the Spiritual Products Ecosystem

A cornerstone of Mahesh Mankar’s journey is Asnuva, an emerging hub for Occult Sciences and Spiritual Products. Built through self-belief and strategic vision, Asnuva is shaping a new-age spiritual marketplace.

The venture focuses on:

• Technology-enabled manufacturing

• Eco-conscious and authentic spiritual products

• Planned experience centres across major cities

• A strong domestic and international distribution network

• Sustainability-driven practices rooted in Indian traditions

From daily pooja essentials to advanced occult tools, Asnuva is redefining trust, quality, and scale in the spiritual products industry.

EdTech Impact: Educating Lakhs Across the World

Beyond products and consultations, Mahesh Mankar has built one of the largest EdTech ecosystems in the occult sciences domain. Through structured courses, workshops, and mentorship programs, lakhs of students worldwide have been trained in Astrology, Numerology, and Vastu.

This educational outreach has not only created a new generation of practitioners but has also positioned him as a global educator and thought leader in spiritual sciences.

His strong digital presence across YouTube, Instagram, and online consultation platforms further amplifies his reach and influence.

A Modern Spiritual Leader with a Global Vision

What sets Mahesh Mankar apart is his ability to blend ancient wisdom with modern execution. Over the years, he has:

• Guided more than 2 lakh clients globally

• Built a deeply engaged spiritual community

• Created scalable, ethical, and sustainable business models

• Established a trusted name across India and international markets

A Journey That Redefines Destiny

Mahesh Mankar’s rise from a government bank clerk to one of the richest astrologers in India is a powerful reminder that passion, when pursued with purpose, can transform destiny.

His journey stands as an inspiration for millions — proving that when ancient wisdom meets modern vision, success follows naturally.

Pune (Maharashtra) [India], December 17: Wittypen, one of the leading content marketing and SEO company, has announced the launch of Zerply.ai, an AI platform designed to help brands understand and manage how they appear across AI-driven search and answer engines such as ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Perplexity, Claude, and Gemini.

As AI systems increasingly influence how users discover brands, products, and information, Zerply addresses a growing gap in traditional SEO and analytics tools, which largely focus on web search results and keyword rankings rather than AI-generated responses.

Zerply is built around a conversational interface that allows users to interact with complex visibility and SEO data using plain language. Rather than relying on multiple dashboards, teams can query the platform to understand how their brand appears across AI systems, how that presence is changing, and where competitors are gaining or losing ground.

Beyond visibility tracking, the platform supports end-to-end SEO and content workflows. Users can ask Zerply.ai to analyze performance trends, identify structural or content-level issues, and generate clear, prioritized recommendations that would otherwise require manual analysis across several tools.

Zerply also integrates first-party website data from sources such as Google Search Console, analytics platforms, and broader search and content trends. By combining these signals, the platform delivers data-backed insights and strategic guidance that typically depend on the involvement of experienced SEO and data specialists, presented directly through a conversational interface.

Industry Recognition

Zerply was recently awarded the Silver Medal in the “Emerging MarTech Innovator of the Year” category at the MarTechAI Awards 2025, held on December 10 in New Delhi.

The MarTechAI Awards, presented by exchange4media, recognize innovation and measurable impact across the marketing technology ecosystem, including brands, agencies, and solution providers.

The award was presented as part of an event celebrating developments in marketing technology and the increasing role of AI-driven platforms in shaping marketing strategies.

According to Wittypen, Zerply.ai was developed in response to recurring challenges observed among marketing teams who lacked clarity on how their brands were represented in AI-generated answers and how to influence those outcomes.

“There is no shortage of tools that can tell teams whether they appear in AI-generated answers,” said Preetesh Jain, Co-Founder and CTO of Wittypen. “The harder problem is understanding what to do next. Zerply was built to analyze visibility signals, website data, and trends together, surface concrete actions, apply fixes, and run audits, so teams can improve AI visibility without needing deep specialization or manual analysis.”

Anshul Motwani, Co-Founder and CEO of Wittypen, added, “As discovery shifts from links to AI-generated answers, brands need a clearer understanding of how decisions are being influenced upstream. Zerply.ai helps businesses move from reactive SEO to proactive visibility and growth planning in an AI-first era.”

Product Scope and Use Cases

Zerply.ai is built to help marketing teams make sense of how AI platforms influence brand discovery and to translate that understanding into clear, practical actions. The platform addresses several common questions marketers are beginning to face as AI-driven answers become a regular part of the customer journey.

Understanding brand and competitor presence in AI-driven discovery
Zerply.ai helps brands see where and how they are being mentioned across AI search and answer platforms, how they are described, and in what context they appear. It also highlights gaps and inconsistencies such as missing information, outdated descriptions, or unclear positioning, while showing how competitors are being surfaced in similar AI responses. This gives marketing teams a clearer picture of their relative visibility and where corrective action or strategic improvement is needed.

Tracking changes in AI visibility over time
AI-generated answers and recommendations change frequently based on new data, content, and underlying LLMs. Zerply allows teams to track how their brand and competitor visibility evolves over time, helping them spot upward or downward trends, sudden changes, and the impact of SEO or content updates. This makes it easier for marketing teams to understand what is working, what is not, and where to focus next.

Generate research-backed briefs, calendars and content in seconds
Zerply.ai enables teams to generate content ideas, briefs, outlines, and content plans backed by real visibility signals, website analysis, and search trends. Instead of manually researching keywords, competitors, and performance data, teams can use conversational queries to produce ready-to-use content direction aligned with improving AI visibility and long-term SEO performance.

Using website data to drive data-backed decisions
Zerply.ai combines AI visibility signals with first-party website data such as Google Search Console, analytics, and broader search trends. This enables teams to access data-backed insights that would typically require experienced SEO and data specialists, presented in a form that is easier for in-house teams to understand and act on.

The platform integrates with existing data sources and is designed for in-house marketing teams, agencies, and consultants working on organic growth and search strategy.

Availability

Zerply.ai is available with a 7-day free trial for its AI visibility features and a free plan with limited AI chat usage. No credit card is required to get started. For more information, visit https://zerply.ai

Surat (Gujarat) [India], December 15:  The young writer Shaurya Singhvi of Surat has written his third book when he is only 16 years of age, making him one of the youngest motivational writers and youth entrepreneurs in the country. Shaurya is a Class 12th student of Fountainhead School, and he started writing when he was 11 years old. He also authored his first book during the COVID-19 period, “Keep the Ball Rolling” which was published on December 29, 2020.

Shaurya wrote his second book, Exploration and Evolution, at the age of 14, in which he discussed lessons and experiences gained during his travels to over 20 countries. His book number three, “Turning Dreams into Reality”, has now been published at the age of 16. The book provides a realistic and practical guide that the youth can use to turn their dreams into reality. It particularly focuses on people starting in the world of entrepreneurship by offering inspiration, skills, and guidance.

Throughout the book, Shaurya provides information on how to establish self-confidence, lessons on how to learn through failures, how to set proper goals, how to have a progressive mind and transform ideas into actual projects. He justifies that the content is grounded on his life experience, courses that he has taken and the difficulties that he has been through. Shaurya, too, has been to a summer school program in the United States.

Talking about his experience, Shaurya said that it does not matter how old a person is to dream and have goals. Each one has his/her own destiny. It is never about age; it is about mentality.

There are also examples of renowned businessmen and entrepreneurs like Steve Jobs, Warren Buffett, and Ratan Tata in the book, wherein curiosity, failure and hard work are the keys to success. Shaurya is currently planning his second book by writing about his amazing weight loss experience, where he lost 52 kilograms. He will disclose the practice, attitude, and education behind this change.

Shaurya Singhvi is also a two-time Amazon bestseller author in addition to having numerous research papers that revolve around the share market and the development of the startup ecosystem in India, particularly in tier 2 and tier 3 cities.

In the future, Shaurya dreams of joining the industrial world similar to his father and wants to start a company in the e-waste market. His father, Gaurav Singhvi, is a venture capitalist and has invested in more than 100 businesses with a fund of more than ₹250 crore and has also appeared on the Lions Den show.

His mother, Dr Nidhi Singhvi, is the Franchise Owner of BNI (Business Network International), Greater Surat, responsible for overseeing day-to-day operations and managing a network of over 2,100 members.
