Diljit Dosanjh’s Movie ‘Sardaarji 3’ Officially Banned Across India

Diljit Dosanjh’s Movie ‘Sardaarji 3’ Officially Banned Across India

Big Victroy for BJP Chitrapat Kamgar Aghadi Also Demand a notification by CBFC to Cancels Certification of all films featuring Pakistani Artists

In a significant development, BJP Chitrapat Kamgar Aghadi has successfully secured a nationwide ban on Diljit Dosanjh’s upcoming film Sardaarji 3, following strong opposition to the casting of Pakistani actress Hania Aamir. The Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) has officially revoked the film’s clearance, ensuring it cannot be released, screened, or promoted anywhere in India.

The whole issue started when BJP film Union submitted a strong protest letter to CBFC on 6th June 25 when Sardarji-3 Producers officially announced their release date.

The office bearer of BJP film Union Sameer Dixit (President), Vivek Jagtap (General Secretary), and Nikita Ghag (Vice President) of BJP Chitrapat Kamgar Aghadi, confirming that their efforts have resultednot only a complete ban on Sardaarji 3 across the country., But upcoming films of any langauge having Pakistani artists will not be screened, Promote in India.

“We took a firm stand, approached CBFC with our demand, and also wrote to Multiplex Chain holder INOX, PVR, CINEPOLIS, and other Exhibitor & Distributor not to showcase film at any cost and all of them are agree with our views. we are proud to say that certification of Sardaarji 3 has been cancelled. The film is officially banned not just in Maharashtra but across India. This is a victory for the nation’s patriotism” declared Sameer Dixit.

The organization had raised strong objections after learning about the inclusion of Pakistani actress Hania Aamir, calling it a direct insult to Indian soldiers and their sacrifices. The group submitted formal complaints to CBFC and also appealed to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, demanding strict action against the film’s makers and lead actor Diljit Dosanjh.

General Secretary Vivek Jagtap emphasized, “Our soldiers are defending the borders while some in the entertainment industry continue to promote artists from enemy nations. We will not tolerate this. With CBFC canceling the film’s certification, we have ensured that Sardaarji 3 will never reach Indian audiences.”

Vice President Nikita Ghag added, “We carried out awareness campaigns, legal follow-ups, and met cinema authorities across India. Today, our efforts paid off — the movie is banned across the nation. We thank CBFC for understanding the gravity of the situation.”

Sources confirm that the film cannot be exhibited on any platform — including cinema halls, OTT platforms, or film festivals — within Indian territory.

The decision has been hailed as a major victory by nationalist groups and organizations demanding a strict stance against any cross-border cultural collaborations with Pakistan, especially in light of continued border tensions and terrorist incidents.

The producers of Sardaarji 3 and actor Diljit Dosanjh have yet to comment publicly. However, industry experts say the project is now indefinitely stalled, with legal challenges likely if attempts are made to release it outside India.

BJP Chitrapat Kamgar Aghadi has reiterated its commitment to protecting national pride and warned filmmakers to avoid involving artists from hostile nations in Indian projects.

The nationwide ban on Sardaarji 3 marks a significant statement from both CBFC and political groups, reinforcing that national security and public sentiment must take precedence over entertainment.

Trust on Overdrive: How Kimbal’s People-First Playbook Catapulted It to India’s Top Workplaces in 2025

Trust on Overdrive: How Kimbal’s People-First Playbook Catapulted It to India’s Top Workplaces in 2025

New Delhi [India], June 27: Kimbal’s meteoric rise-from 40 humble heads-in-hoodies to 450 passionate professionals in just 24 months has now been crowned 34th spot on the 2025 India’s Great Mid-Size Workplaces Index from Great Place to Work®.

What sets this energy-tech disruptor apart? Radical freedom baked into every job description.

Freedom is the operating system

Employees have complete autonomy over their working hours and time off. “No approvals needed.” While a few roles follow fixed schedules for operational continuity, the majority have full flexibility to work at their preferred times and hours if it has no impact on the outcome.

Budgets without bureaucracy

There’s no multi-layer approval tree for travel, tools, or training. Or for that matter, anything. A single guideline governs every expense: Do it with responsibility and care. The result: swift decisions, wise habits, and zero red tape.

360-degree feedback in real-time

At Kimbal, feedback flows quickly, objectively, and in all directions. They don’t wait for quarterly reviews to do that. Everyone is encouraged to give and receive input regularly, creating a culture of continuous learning and collective growth.

Rewards wired to values

Kimbal celebrates both the destination and the journey taken to reach it. Aligning with the company’s values and taking full ownership of the process carry as much weight as the final results. Missteps are regarded as vital lessons–they believe in failing fast to learn faster.

“Our culture isn’t perks; it’s radical trust,” says Kimbal’s CHRO, Ms. Jaya Suri. “When people feel safe to think big and act fast, growth becomes an inevitable outcome.”

For Kimbal, the Great Place to Work® plaque is less a finish line than a pit stop. As the company continues its swift expansion and a twelve million smart meter rollout, its greatest asset remains the same: a workforce unshackled by traditional rules–and united by an audacious vision to rewire India’s energy future.

Onlin.in Launches India’s First Multilingual Agentic AI Voice Commerce Platform: AnantAI (Patent Pending)

Onlin.in Launches India’s First Multilingual Agentic AI Voice Commerce Platform: AnantAI (Patent Pending)

Hyderabad, June 2025 — Onlin.in, India’s leading eCommerce website builder, announces the launch of AnantAI, the country’s first multilingual Agentic AI Voice Commerce platform. This breakthrough allows customers to shop using natural voice commands in their preferred language.

With strong early interest from retailers across metros and Tier-2/3 cities, Onlin.in has now opened its waitlist to onboard businesses in phased batches, ensuring a smooth, scalable national rollout.

AnantAI has been developed by Founders Jay Tapadia and Vijay Tapadia, alongside Co-Founders Anil Malpani, Krishna Toshniwal, and Laksh Maheshwari. The team is known for building deep-tech innovations.

Patent-Pending Breakthrough in Voice Commerce
Recognizing the platform’s potential to redefine retail, Onlin.in has filed a patent for its Agentic AI Voice Commerce System. The application covers the entire user journey — from multilingual voice interaction to autonomous checkout — making it the first of its kind in India and protecting it across technology stacks and retail formats.

“We believe the future of commerce is voice-first,” said Jay Tapadia, Founder. “As retail faces increasing labor shortages and evolving customer expectations, AnantAI acts as a true digital store assistant — understanding commands, reasoning like a human, and even completing checkout. This vision is now protected through a comprehensive patent filing.”

Proven Innovation Track Record
Jay Tapadia and Vijay Tapadia are no strangers to innovation. They are already patent holders for Automated Voter List Analysis and Booth Management System, a solution widely recognized in political tech circles for optimizing election operations and data-driven booth strategies. Their track record adds significant weight to AnantAI’s market and IP credibility.

Tested Across India’s Retail Landscape
Retailers in Mumbai, Delhi, Hyderabad, Bengaluru, Jaipur, and Pune have already begun pilot testing the platform. “The excitement is real,” said Vijay Tapadia, Co-Founder. “This isn’t just another tool — it’s a transformation. We’ve opened the waitlist so sellers can lead this next wave of commerce.”

Voice + Intelligence + Indian Languages = Commerce for All
At its core, AnantAI uses agentic intelligence — enabling it to understand natural speech, remember user preferences, and respond intelligently. It supports multiple Indian languages, making modern digital shopping accessible for everyone, from large format stores to local retailers.

Integrated into the Onlin.in ecosystem, AnantAI works across browsers, kiosks, and smart tablets, with no technical training required for sellers.

Reimagining India’s Retail Future
As voice becomes the new interface and AI becomes the new workforce, AnantAI positions Onlin.in at the forefront of India’s retail evolution. It is the first fully autonomous, multilingual, agentic voice commerce platform built in and for India — with the potential to redefine how the nation shops, both online and offline.

14th degree Azimuth Advisory launches GCC – AI Readiness report in New York

14th degree Azimuth Advisory launches GCC – AI Readiness report in New York

New York City, June 23, 2025 – 14th Degree Azimuth Advisory, a boutique GCC advisory firm focusing on AI-First Global Capability Centers for Trade Buyers and Enterprises, today released its GCC report titled “GCCs – Evolution, Technology Adoption and Way Ahead, Thought Leadership Paper covering AI Readiness in Back and Middle Office”, at a function held in New York City.  The event was sponsored by Sutherland.

Releasing the report, Yadu Singh, Global Managing Partner, 14th Degree Azimuth Advisory said, “AI proof of concepts are slowly getting into production in back and middle office in GCCs. These PoCs not only face employee resistance, especially among the more tenured global capability centers, but also existing structural and technical challenges like clean and context-specific data, data localization challenges, and ESG pressures such as more stringent GDPR, DPDP act for offshore entities.”

The report provides key insights on

  1. Efficiency of operations is a clear winner when it comes to business outcomes
  2. Rising Challenges in Data Privacy, Protection, and Compliance
  3. Increasing demand for Environmental Social and Governance Reporting
  4. GCCs at the Core of Cost-Effective Digital Transformation

Talking about how the report benefits enterprises looking at setting up their GCCs, Jay Woldar, Managing Director – Americas, said, “The 14DAA research methodology comprised of both experiential learning of the last 25 years across both providers and GCC owners as well as primary research on AI readiness in back and middle office. Rather than focusing heavily on historical data, we centered our approach on three discontinuities reshaping the ecosystem—AI, Quantum Computing, and the rapid transformation of Digital/Public infrastructure in countries like India. This is not a case of continuous improvement but of disruptive innovation, requiring a fresh perspective for evaluation. Our key objective was to assess the maturity of centers, Leadership, Culture, and Operating Structure. The focus was to assess the management flexibility of the parent company to fully embrace these discontinuities (for example, AI) and the ability of GCC to move toward a more risk-mitigation and business outcome-based innovation-driven approach for the parent.”

Nikhil Anand, Senior Vice President and Global Head for Sutherland Digital Business Services, added:

“At Sutherland, we see Global Capability Centers emerging as pivotal engines of Enterprise innovation and agility. As AI moves from experimentation to enterprise-wide adoption, GCCs that embrace AI and data-driven transformation could potentially be at the forefront of this new wave, driving measurable outcomes —from operational efficiency to accelerated revenue growth and improved customer experience. Reports like this reaffirm the need for a bold shift in how organizations design for scalability, compliance, and impact in a digital-first world.”

The report was also launched in London on June 10th (Backdrop of the London AI Summit), and will be launched in Hamburg on June 24th (Backdrop of India Week)

About 14th Degree Azimuth Advisory

With over 5000 person years of demonstrable impact in the AI readiness benchmarking. This is backed up by market tested design, build and setup of AI-First Global Capability Centers and Captives experience and use cases. Our experts will help you navigate the intricacies including cultural implications of any headwinds that may emerge from AI.

Tap Capital Sets Ambitious Growth Plans with ₹2,000 Crore Deployment Target for FY26

Tap Capital Sets Ambitious Growth Plans with ₹2,000 Crore Deployment Target for FY26

Tap Capital, a fintech platform revolutionizing modern-age debt financing and working capital solutions for Indian businesses, is planning to deploy ₹2,000 crore in capital for FY26. This milestone follows a strong FY25, during which the company disbursed ₹900 crore across its core offerings in SME financing.

Founded by Nishchay Nath, Soumya Kushwaha (both IIM Ahmedabad alumni) and Himanshu Chowdhary (IIT Kharagpur), Tap Capital is transforming how Indian MSMEs access capital offering fast, digital, and structured credit through its proprietary tech-first lending infrastructure.

“In FY25, we validated our thesis: there’s a large, untapped demand for working capital and structured debt among high-quality SMEs,” said Nishchay Nath, Founder & CEO.

“Our ability to deploy ₹900 crore through efficient origination and distribution proves the power of our platform. With the partnerships we’ve built and the demand we’re seeing, ₹2,000 crore in FY26 is an achievable and strategic leap.”

Strategic Partnerships Fueling Momentum

Tap Capital’s FY26 trajectory is supported by key partnerships with one of India’s leading NBFCs. These alliances have bolstered Tap’s ability to scale responsibly, maintain high credit quality, and expand across new sectors and geographies.

With a fully digital, embedded-finance approach, Tap is bridging the ₹25 lakh crore credit gap faced by India’s MSMEs–many of whom are underserved by traditional lenders. As India’s economy gains momentum, structured debt and working capital demand is expected to surge, positioning Tap Capital at the forefront of this transformation.

ultra: Investments for the Next-Gen Investor

On the retail investor front, Tap Group also operates ultra, a fixed income investments platform that is redefining how India’s emerging wealth class builds long-term returns.

ultra offers curated, institutional-grade products including Invoice discounting, Asset Leasing, Fractional Real Estate, Private Equity & Pre-IPOs & Minerals like gold and silver.

With high-yield fixed income options, full transparency, and rapid digital onboarding, ultra is giving access to opportunities that were once reserved for institutions and insiders. In FY25, several of ultra’s products delivered record-high IRRs, far surpassing traditional public-market returns, making it one of India’s most compelling platforms for intelligent wealth creation.

Among ultra’s standout offerings is Invoice Discounting investment, where one can purchase invoices for blue-chip-backed businesses. With tenures as short as 30 to 90 days and predictable pay-outs, the product offers liquidity and confidence making it ideal for modern customers looking for short-duration fixed income exposure with minimal volatility.

Another core product, Asset Leasing investment, allows users to co-own income generating assets like medical equipment, electronics, or office infrastructure leased to corporates. This creates steady, passive monthly cash flow, serving as a powerful fixed income tool with real-world utility and low correlation to public market cycles.

As a group, Tap is building a financial engine that serves both sides of the economic spectrum, providing high-quality structured credit to India’s underbanked SMEs and unlocking access to fixed income products. By bridging institutional-grade opportunities with cutting-edge tech, Tap is reshaping the future of wealth and credit in India, quietly, efficiently, and at scale.

Vladimir Putin: Open Dialogue is a Step Toward Forming a New Global Growth Model

Vladimir Putin: Open Dialogue is a Step Toward Forming a New Global Growth Model

On June 20, Russian President Vladimir Putin spoke at the plenary session of the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum. He noted the importance of developing a fair and open platform for global growth among the key topics. He emphasised the special role of the Open Dialogue held at the National Centre “Russia.” This initiative brought together participants from more than 100 countries and became one of the essential steps toward creating a new model of international cooperation.

“Russia invites partners to contribute to forming a new global growth model. Together, we can ensure the prosperity of our countries and the stable development of the entire world for many years to come. This is exactly why we held the Open Dialogue in Moscow this year, which was attended by representatives from more than one hundred states. We intend to make this format regular and build an entire ecosystem around it for discussing, developing, and implementing breakthrough ideas. The global challenges facing the modern world require an unconditional and global response. Solving problems alone, especially at someone else’s expense, is impossible. This is an illusion,” stated Vladimir Putin.

The session “Shaping a New Platform for Global Growth,” based on the results of the Open Dialogue of the National Centre “Russia,” opened the SPIEF business program on June 18. Maxim Oreshkin, the deputy chief of staff of the presidential administration of the Russian Federation, moderated the session.

International experts from Russia, Cameroon, Spain, Azerbaijan, and Canada participated in the discussion, as well as authors of the best essays from the first Open Dialogue. Participants discussed new approaches to economic development, the potential of Global South countries, demographic trends, and the impact of future technologies.

Special attention was paid to the report prepared by the Centre for Cross-Industry Expertise “Third Rome” based on the Open Dialogue results. The session’s conclusions formed the foundation for the entire SPIEF-2025 business program.

The first Open Dialogue at the National Centre “Russia” became a platform for discussing the future in four areas: “Investment in People,” “Investment in Technologies,” “Investment in Environment,” and “Investment in Connectivity.” Experts from different countries wrote essays on these topics, and the authors of the best works were invited to Moscow to present their ideas. The Open Dialogue format will become annual.

VIRGIO Launches Beyond The Curve with Anjali Anand: A Bold New Chapter in Fashion

VIRGIO Launches Beyond The Curve with Anjali Anand: A Bold New Chapter in Fashion

New Delhi [India], June 20: VIRGIO, the trend-first sustainable fashion brand redefining how fashion is made and experienced, announces the launch of Beyond The Curve — a first-of-its-kind, invite-only fashion line for curvy women, co-created with actor and fashion advocate Anjali Anand. The line brings high-quality, on-trend fashion to sizes above XL–an area that’s long been overlooked.

“Beyond The Curve was born from listening — to every woman who’s ever felt ignored by the rack. We didn’t want to just add sizes. We wanted to rethink how sizing, style, and self-expression work for real bodies. And like everything at VIRGIO, BTC follows our core ecosystem of using technology, community data, and on-demand production to build fashion that’s both sustainable and trend-first,” says Amar Nagaram, Founder & CEO of VIRGIO.

Unlike traditional launches, Beyond The Curve follows an invite-only model. Customers joined the waitlist to receive a personal invite code, which unlocked access to the collection. This intentional model ensures thoughtful production, avoiding overstock and waste, while creating an exclusive community that has often been overlooked.

At the heart of this launch is Anjali Anand, a celebrated voice for body inclusivity and the co-creator of the line. Having grown up curvy in an industry that rarely made space for her, Anjali brings raw authenticity, lived experience, and unfiltered passion to the project. She has been deeply involved in every aspect — from fittings and fabric trials to storytelling and community engagement.

“I’ve spent years being told what not to wear. Beyond The Curve is my answer to that — bold, unapologetic, and made for every woman who’s ever felt unseen. With VIRGIO, I didn’t just co-create clothes. We built a space we never had growing up.” says Anjali Anand.

Beyond The Curve marks the start of a long-term commitment from VIRGIO to expand fashion’s boundaries — literally and culturally. Future drops will continue to be community-led, offering trend-forward designs tailored for curvier bodies, while maintaining VIRGIO’s sustainability-first ethos.
