  • Noida International Airport gathers steam as SBI approves Rs 3,725 crore loan

    Noida’s aspirations to take to the skies is all set to take off. The State Bank of India (SBI) has greenlit the credit sanction of Rs 3,725 crore for the development of the Jewar airport a.k.a Noida International Airport (NIA). The Yamuna International Airport Private Limited (YIAPL), a subsidiary of Zurich Airport International (ZIA), is responsible for putting Noida on the aviation map. The funding is a testament to the financial viability of the airport and will open the gates for the laying of the foundation stone and subsequent operations. ZIA had won the rights for the project by outbidding Delhi International Airport Limited (DIAL), Anchorage Infrastructure Investments Holdings Limited and Adani. SBI coming in as a partner at this crucial juncture is an added bonus. SBI had sanctioned the loan on a door-to-door loan tenor of 20 years. In simple words, the entire principal plus the interest will have to be repaid within 20 years. SBI’s interest in the project underlines its belief that airports and the aviation industry in general, will play a critical role in India’s future growth. With travel restrictions being lifted and flyers taking to the skies again, SBI’s bet might just pay off handsomely. Private airports are the all the buzz these days as the government looks to take its strategic disinvestment plans to the next level. Privatization of public sector undertakings (PSUs) has become a priority for the Centre as it looks to offload its stakes in airports. The presence of players like Adani, SBI and now ZIA, bodes well for the airport industry. The Adani Group, in particular, has made the most of this opportunity, snapping up six airports in Guwahati, Lucknow, Mangalore, Thiruvananthapuram, Lucknow and Ahmedabad. The Group’s latest acquisition, Mumbai International Airport, is a jewel in its crown. Adani has a 74 per cent in the airport, which is one of the busiest airports in the country and the world. In fact, the Group’s chairman, Gautam Adani, expressed his delight at the annual general meeting, saying that one in every four passengers flies through an Adani airport. Although the aviation industry has been hit hard by the pandemic, experts predict that the rise of the working class and the widening middle-class demography would boost post-pandemic air travel. And it is not just passenger traffic that is expected to grow. Freight traffic is also on the rise and Indian airports alone have the potential to reach 17 million tonnes by 2040. It is now clear why parties like ZIA, DIAL, Adani and SBI are investing in airports. The government also expects Indian freight and air logistics have the potential to become the most efficient and profitable by 2030. Accordingly, $ 1.83 billion has been earmarked for the development of airport infrastructure and the aviation industry by 2026. If all goes according to plan, soon everybody can fly

  • Hassen Dilruba - Character at the level best with a film that has an intense premise

    Thanks for the wonderful response to this column for reviewing, films and shows on OTT, our today’s pick is Taapsee’s Haseen Dilruba that is now out on Netflix. Let’s see how it is. Not every film is easy to digest through the screenplay, or very different. But Hassen Dilruba is very illogical, and difficult to get convinced. This film shows the genre of romantic suspense, but the first 1/2 to 1 hour it's hectic to watch it. And then we get puzzled about the genre. Whereas, the story revolves around three people, in a strangely romantic and revenge mood, with discouraging the standards of Indian Society. Usually, the writer creates a character, making changes to the character, is part of the director, but the drastic change of Tapsee Pannu here is very tough to understand. Rani aka Tapsee Pannu's performance was weak as compared to "Thappad ". In one moment she’s the standard Taapsee Pannu-type, and in the next, she goes stunningly off-brand and literally begs a man to accept her. It's a pure Hindi- Fiction movie. Harshawardhan Rane aka Neel, The film starts, and Rani aka Tapsee is introduced to Virkrant Messy aka Rishu. While Vikrant Messy has done his character at the level best. Even though Vikrant being a good actor, the script has laid down him to give his average performance. " Neel " played by Harshwardhan Rane also disappoints at a time, where he is not as strong a character which was needed to be in this film. Making this a women-centric film, this is where all fuss takes place with this thought and this is the unprivileged part of the film. While, a great character as a police officer is present in this film, who is Aditya Shrivastav A very experienced actor, has not only shown his acting skills but also tried to put back the film incorrect understanding. Investigation throughout the film trying to find the exact fact of why did this crime happen is an interesting journey to watch. The whole story is based on Dinesh Pandit - "Kausli Ka Kahar". Still making an IMDb rating of 6.9/10, it is featuring on Netflix. If you are interested in a Rom-Thrill, do watch it. You can have a look at the trailer from the below link. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lt_bDfnXKGM

  • Collar Bomb - the synopsis is not that easy to intake emanating boredom

His colleague ASI Sumitra Joshi, a confident officer also takes charge to go to the depth of the case. Eventually, the scenario gets complicated, showing some grim steps of Kumar Hesi. Trying to save his son, Hesi is on fire to commit whatever the terrorist demands, which shows poor protagonist actions. Nikhil Nair’s screenplay and Dnyanesh Zoting’s direction show some loopholes, which make the craft look dull, thus resulting flat perspective for the viewers. The climax has a twist, but yet all these do not add up to make Collar Bomb worth a watch. Upon all the facts above, you want to get some thriller entertainment and suspense, this can be your binge-watch movie. The fact of it is , it shows the scriptwriter's lack of creativity. As it has, fewer elements. While we are eager to find the logic behind the whole story, it's very dull to understand the end then. Also, for now, Bollywood needs to come out with prejudices about some communities by stop looking at them as terrorists. With an IMDB rating of 5.2/10, collar bomb is streaming on Disney+ Hotstar.

  • Mimi is here to strengthen Bollywood’s relationship with surrogacy dramas

    Most films just entertain you, some films teach you, while some are just for a one-time watch. . With an IMDb rating of 8.3/10, Mimi is one of that one-time watch categories. Bollywood’s relationship with surrogacy dramas is highlighted with a film by Laxman Utekar, 'Mimi' is a remake of Samroudhhi Porey's National Award-winning Marathi film 'Mala Aai Vhhaychy!' (2011) It also features Pankaj Tripathi, Sai Tamhankar, Manoj Pahwa, Supriya Pathak, Evelyn Edwards and Aidan Whytock in supporting roles. Kriti Sanon plays Mimi, a 'young and fit woman in small-town Rajasthan. She dreams to become a Bollywood actress. This dream dissolves when an American couple enters into this story, where they need a child from a surrogate mother. And the connector between the couple and Mimi is " Driver Bhannu", played by Pankaj Tripathi. With the hope of money for a photoshoot, Mimi agrees to be a surrogate mother. Director Laxman Utekar’s Mimi, his second with star Kriti Sanon after Lukka Chuppi, is no exception. The deal gets final, and then Mimi (aka Kriti Sanon) gets pregnant, where to hide this news, Kriti halts in her friends' house, Shama, played by Sai Thamankar. The comic writing is impressive, and Pankaj Tripathi has done it very well. The way Kriti has turned herself into Mimi, a surrogate mother, where she has to carry the baby-bump and walk, run is appreciable. While Kriti is fine, nourishing with healthy food, for the baby, and suddenly, the American couple John and Summer run back to America as they get to know that there is a biological disorder in the baby. Kriti aka Mimi finds it difficult to accept this incident. The scene where she applies talcum powder to hide her tears makes more impact on the story, then decides not to abort the baby, and then the struggle with the secret of this Surrogate Mother finds difficult paths. Whereas Mimi's parents need to know the father of the baby, pointing towards Pankaj Tripathi aka Bhanu, attempts are made, but not with that impact comedy manner, Mimi makes a new conflict in the story. The baby jumps into the world, and there is a mix of feelings around Mimi, with taking care of a white baby, roaming the paths of Rajasthan, and seeing the bond between the mother and son, melts our heart and that was the attachment moment with this film. While the unexpected twist takes place and John and Summer, return to India, claiming to return the child to them, and threatening Mimi and her family. In the end, the emotions take over the nature of human being and John and Summer adopts a girl child from the orphanage. Kriti has done her part very well, compared to her role in before projects. While Pankaj Tripathi, with his comic timing and his acting, is somewhat less energetic, but satisfying. Summer (Evelyn Edwards) and John (Aidan Whytock), did their parenting role at their are even. Overall, an emotional drama film, and could be a One-Time Watch. This movie is streaming on Netflix. Here's the link to the trailer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_sc3HyeNxPs

  • Sweetycat Press and Some More Literary Submission Recommendations By Writer Steve Lester Carr

    As a Writer, Author or Content Creator, you need to have a good understanding of the submission of the right content or material for the literary world. That's why we interacted with an Author Who opened up about the Sweetycat Press and other submissions that will get results. Make sure you’re hitting every point on this list!. Sweetycat Press began as a Facebook group launched by Steve Carr, a frequently published short story writer and novelist, in February 2020 to support emerging writers through providing tools for self-promotion and brand building. Toward that goal, five high-quality books (Who’s Who of Emerging Writers 2020, The Book of Books, I. The Writer, The Wordsmith Chronicles, To Be Or Not To Be A Writer) were published within a year that included essays and short stories from hundreds of writers worldwide. Additionally, two Youtube productions were produced: In A Flash, reading by author Dave Gregory of flash fiction stories written by authors in the Facebook group, and The Poetics, a series of episodes where author Wendy Vogel read poetry written by the members. The books remain on Amazon.com with any money from the sales after April 1, 2021, to go toward the continued support of emerging writers. In A Flash and The Poetics remain on Youtube. The Sweetycat Press Facebook group began at the same time that the COVID-19 pandemic sprung up, leading to the Facebook group being shut down after a year in operation due to the pandemic’s impact on the Facebook group’s mission. Not wanting to shut down his Sweetycat Press publishing imprint, and seeking other ways to support emerging writers, Steve quickly developed two separate arms of Sweetycat Press. The first was the establishment of an online literary magazine, Short Story Town, that publishes up to ten new short stories a month in an anthology-style format, where one story follows the next, in the same way, that an anthology is collated. The authors of the stories are paid, which isn’t generally the case for online publications. To date, 23 stories have been published, by authors worldwide. Short Story Town can be found at https://www.shortstorytown.com/. The other arm of Sweetycat Press is the book publishing endeavour. It endeavours to publish novels and collections by emerging writers who have never had a book published along with books that highlight the accomplishments of emerging writers. So far it has published a YA novel, Beyond Wishes, by Joan Herr, and recently published Who’s Who of Emerging Writers 2021, and a collection of poetry by Mike Turner, titled Visions and Memories. Carried over from the Facebook group, the five previously published books can be found on the Sweetycat Press website. The website is https://www.sweetycatpress.com/. Sweetycat Press welcomes submissions from emerging writers who write short stories and narrative poems to Short Story Town, and contact, Steve Carr, at sweetycatpress@gmail.com if you have a novel or poetry collection you would like me to consider. Other Recommendations by Steve Lester Carr for Literary Submissions There are literally thousands of online magazines, each with its own unique layout and specifications for what they are looking for. Five recommend by Steve are: The World of Myth Magazine, which publishes a variety of stories of different genres once a month. It can be found at www.TheWorldofMyth.com. Indian Periodical is an Indian publication that prints literary stories from authors worldwide. Their focus is on the global community, seeking stories that are universal in nature, with a special interest in stories set in Asia. Their website is http://indianperiodical.com/ A magazine that in its layout doesn’t really look like a magazine is The Academy of the Heart and Mind https://academyoftheheartandmind.wordpress.com/that accepts literary stories and like Sweetycat Press, caters to emerging writers. A publication familiar to many, https://spillwords.com/, accepts a wide range of short stories, flash fiction and poetry and is published frequently, with no real schedule. Based in London, Schlock! Webzine http://www.schlock.co.uk/ publishes fantasy, sci-fi and horror stories printed in monthly issues. For book publishers, this category is as broad as online magazines, and much less accessible since getting your book beyond an agent who is the gatekeeper for manuscripts to be submitted to larger, traditional publishers can be a real challenge, but there are some smaller traditional presses to consider looking into that you can submit your manuscript to directly. At the top of that list is Clarendon House Publishers, run by founder, Grant Hudson, who also is a well-known name among most writers in the Facebook groups. He is unique, but somewhat similar to Sweetycat Press in that he also publishes a magazine that comes out once a month that has a superb layout, a wide variety of articles and stories, at a very reasonable subscription price and is sent to you as a PDF. He publishes anthologies as well as collections, novels, novellas and other works, mostly in the literary genre. The website for Clarendon House is https://www.clarendonhousebooks.com/ A name is recognizable to a lot of readers/writers in Impspired Magazine and Publisher, founded by and run with amazing efficiency by Steve Cawte. The impressive Impspired magazine, loaded with a wide range of stories and poetry, is published as an online magazine that is subsequently published in print form and sold on Amazon. The inspired magazine also publishes poetry and short story collections. Check Impspired out at https://impspired.com/. They don’t have a magazine, but Pure Slush, based in Australia, publishes anthologies and individual novels by a wide range of authors. It can be found at https://pureslush.com/. Their tastes tend to be in mainstream literary work, but that’s not entirely the case. Flame Tree Press publishes anthologies with some of the most gorgeous covers on the face of the planet as well as novels by individual authors in the horror, supernatural, crime and mystery thrillers, science fiction and fantasy genres. Their website is https://www.flametreepress.com/. We hope, all the above recommendations will prove a great way to break into the publishing world. We are waiting for your responses, feedback through comments.

  • Technology’s contribution to the Education sector : Vivek K Singh , Co-founder, and CEO, Careerera

    Since technology fosters improvisation and innovation, it will make education a globally accessible program for many children. I would begin by saying that education, like almost any other aspect of life today, has been influenced by technology. Technology has radically altered education in several respects. For one thing, technological advancements have dramatically increased educational opportunities. In medieval times when books were scarce, and only a fortunate few had access to educational opportunities. Individuals had to travel miles to educational institutions in order to receive an education. However huge quantities of knowledge (books, audio, photographs, and videos) are now available at one's fingertips through the Internet, and structured learning opportunities are available via MOOCs, podcasts, conventional online degree programmes, and more. Today's learning opportunities are unprecedented in scope, thanks to technical advances. Nowadays it has become increasingly important to keep up with technological advances as it becomes more and more integrated into our daily lives, particularly in these unprecedented times. The pandemic has highlighted the value of technology and demonstrated our dependency on it. Technology has also proven to be an incredibly beneficial tool in the education field. The Gift of Technology Due to the unforeseen crisis, the availability of numerous engaging content/programs, and other legitimate qualification courses online, technology has been ensured more intensively over the last year. Previously, however, primary and secondary schools did not see the need to incorporate technology into their curriculum on a regular basis. However, in the current situation, e-learning is the only way for children to attend daily classes without fear. Although we can't ignore the benefits of "traditional" learning, incorporating technology into traditional classrooms can only help students have a more engaging learning experience. The cycle connecting students-teachers and parents has undergone enormous changes with respect to technology. Apart from being just a fill-in during the Covid-19 crisis, the technology is expected to be a long-term inclusion in academics. It can not only be used in classrooms or while doing homework but also in extensive areas of operation. For the proper implementation of incessant knowledge, a few things are needed to be kept in mind, these are the type of device used for information sharing, the individual using technology for the same (i.e. teacher or student), the degree of technology use (i.e. more or less), and the level of performance as results/output. The Hybrid Learning In India, the education sector is rapidly taking wings and promptly becoming amalgamated with “traditional schooling”. This is where hybrid learning enters into the picture, accompanied by both modern and traditional tools in education being nurtured together for more appropriate and fruitful results. In different industries, technology and its consequences are numerous. However, we recognize that the educational environment has undergone a complete paradigm shift in the last year. The provision of various engaging content/programs and other legitimate certification courses online has increased its intensity over the last year as a result of the circumstantial crisis. When various e-learning platforms use animation and other fun resources to teach, education becomes more enjoyable. Technology can assist and enhance education in a multitude of ways, from making it much easier for teachers to develop teaching materials to inspiring people to learn and interact in new ways.
