Niva Bupa Health Insurance Celebrates Father's Day with #World'sMostResponsibleDad Campaign
New Delhi, Delhi, India:
Partners with Blinkit to distribute specially designed greeting cards across Delhi, Gurgaon, and Mumbai to select buyers.
Ropes in renowned author and influencer Durjoy Dutta to reach out to young fathers.
Niva Bupa Health Insurance Company Limited has launched a campaign – #World'sMostResponsibleDad on the occasion of upcoming Father's Day to celebrate the unwavering commitment and responsibility of fathers to secure their family's health and future.
Fathers are usually the fulcrum around which the entire family revolves. They are natural providers who often go out of the way to keep their family happy and safe. However, as per a consumer immersion conducted by Niva Bupa, only about 20% of fathers currently hold a health insurance policy. This data is a stark reminder that while fathers are doing everything for the wellbeing of their family, they are not taking charge of their own health which is so crucial in ensuring that their family's future is secure.
#World'sMostResponsibleDad campaign is rooted in a powerful consumer insight: New fathers often feel an overwhelming sense of responsibility. They often tend to priorities their loved ones' needs over their own. From juggling meetings to make time to spend with their newborn, to changing baby diapers and packing lunchboxes, fathers go the extra mile to keep their family happy. As young fathers navigate their schedules while performing their 'father duties', it can lead to stress that can impact their health. What fathers don't realize that if their health suffers, it can affect not just them but the whole family they work so hard to protect.
The campaign acknowledges that while fathers may make small everyday mistakes, what truly matters is getting the big things right, like securing their own health with health insurance and thus ensuring that family's future is protected. Taking this responsible step ensures peace of mind and financial security, safeguarding the entire family against unexpected health challenges. Fathers embracing health insurance set a strong example of care and preparedness, reinforcing their role as protectors and providers in the family.
As part of this campaign, Niva Bupa has partnered with Blinkit to distribute specially designed greeting cards across Delhi, Gurgaon, and Mumbai to buyers of diapers, baby food and other kids related items on Father's Day weekend (June 14th & 15th). The greeting card has heartwarming message along with playful checklist to help dads reflect if they qualify as the #World'sMostResponsibleDad.
For this campaign, Niva Bupa is also collaborating with renowned author and influencer Durjoy Dutta to amplify the message to new fathers and families on Instagram and other digital platforms. This collaboration will ensure that the campaign reaches young fathers who are stepping into the journey of responsibility and are keen to secure their family's health and future.
Speaking about the initiative, Nimish Agrawal, Director – Digital Business Unit & Chief Marketing Officer at Niva Bupa Health Insurance, said, 'At Niva Bupa, we understand that a father's true responsibility goes beyond the daily hustle—it's about ensuring the long-term health and well-being of the family. This campaign is our way of nudging fathers to prioritize their own health for the sake of their family's future. Health insurance is a fundamental step towards safeguarding the future and ensuring peace of mind for the entire family.'
The campaign underscores the importance of health insurance in a father's toolkit of responsibility. By securing health insurance, fathers not only protect themselves and their loved ones but also provide a shield for their family's future. Niva Bupa Health Insurance empowers families to face life's uncertainties with confidence.

Another Side of Modern Fatherhood
Much of what you've heard lately about men has probably been negative. Young guys, we're told, are being radicalized and sucked into the manosphere; adult men are toxic, or victims of a loneliness epidemic. We may have become so used to crisis narratives about men, masculinity, and fatherhood that we're failing to see the ways in which men are progressing. One omnipresent parenting influencer, Becky Kennedy, thinks that, when it comes to fatherhood in particular, a lot of dads are doing just fine, and that should be celebrated. 'I asked a group of dads the other day, 'What is something you do that your own dad never did?'' Kennedy, who goes by 'Dr. Becky,' told me earlier this week. 'It brought tears to a lot of their eyes to be able to say, 'Maybe not even 50 percent of the nights, but maybe 30, I put my kids to sleep even if they're screaming for their mom every time. My dad never put me to sleep.' I could cry, John.' Kennedy has found a large, eager market for her views. Four years ago, Time magazine dubbed her 'the Millennial Parenting Whisperer,' and her reach continues to grow. She's the author of a No. 1 New York Times best-selling book, a podcast host, and the proprietor of a parenting-education program—all branded under the banner 'Good Inside,' her 'app-based membership' platform. On Instagram, she has more than 3 million followers. She makes part of her living on the speaking circuit; at times, the charge for a virtual Dr. Becky appearance has run to as much as $200,000. Her detractors say she's more a shrewd businesswoman than a benevolent force, but thousands of parents have come to see her as some sort of healer. Kennedy, who holds a Ph.D. in clinical psychology, leans more on anecdotal evidence than on hard research, presenting herself less as an expert and more as a confidante. At the recent 'Future of Fatherhood Summit' in Midtown Manhattan, Kennedy was among the speakers discussing topics such as caregiving, paid leave, and 'inclusive masculinity.' Most of the voices were male—Jonathan Haidt, Chasten Buttigieg, and Representative Jimmy Gomez of the Congressional Dads Caucus among them. Kennedy's upbeat presentation stood out amid no small amount of pontificating. Kennedy offers a centrist perspective: She rejects the expectation that men are breadwinners and nothing more; she also rejects the idea that dads 'need to be made into moms' or that successful parenting requires 50–50 sharing of household tasks. Listening to her there, and during a follow-up interview, I thought about one of my favorite New Yorker cartoons. In the frame, a slump-shouldered middle-aged man is holding a vacuum cleaner and daydreaming about a wild celebration—confetti, people cheering, and a banner that reads NED HELPED OUT. Kennedy's glass-half-full mentality is undoubtedly a form of positive reinforcement for guys who feel like they can't do anything right. Kennedy is often associated with the 'gentle parenting' movement, but her overall philosophy boils down to what she calls 'sturdy parenting,' an even-keeled approach that is, in some ways, a welcome alternative to 'helicopter parenting.' She likes to talk about what she calls 'deeply feeling kids,' or 'DFKs' for short, and her defense of the modern dad is almost a continuation of her child-care approach— You're doing great, sweetie. Like many figures in the wellness and self-improvement space, Kennedy occasionally falls back on platitudes—fathers are looking for a 'dad journey,' not just 'dad duty,' she maintains. And the resetting of expectations that she proposes also runs the risk of stalling progress. At what point does affirmation for dads become nothing more than handing out participation trophies? Kennedy feels confident that fathers are hungry to better their domestic lives. 'We've had this drumbeat of 'parenting is a skill,' which I think means anyone can learn it,' Kennedy told me. But she's found that today's dads actually have 'less shame' than moms around confronting the hard truth that they may not know everything from the moment their child is born. She believes that this is partly because society doesn't home in on the phrase paternal instinct, whereas an innate 'maternal instinct' is widely expected. In lieu of male pride or obstinacy, she's found modern dads to be genuinely curious. 'They know they don't have the skills,' she said. 'They're like, 'Someone just teach me.'' In the end, Kennedy believes that today's dads, to varying degrees, want 'repair' with their kids, and to be 'cycle-breakers'—making up for all those nights they went to bed without their own dad tucking them in. Rather than raising boys who will end up in the manosphere, they want to teach their kids how to deal with their feelings. In a time of wall-to-wall negativity, Kennedy's optimism is refreshing. Whether or not the proper prescription for modern parenting partnerships lies in patting dads on the back for performing seemingly basic tasks, Kennedy's pragmatism about making men feel capable of the job of raising children seems a worthwhile place to start.

9-year-old girl bitten by shark has ‘miracle' surgery at Florida hospital
A 9-year-old girl whose hand was nearly severed in a shark bite is now able to move all her fingers, according to a social media post from her family. The girl, Leah Lendel, was snorkeling off the coast of Boca Grande on Wednesday when the incident occurred, her family shared online. Boca Grande Fire Chief C.W. Blosser told the Tampa Bay Times that Lendel was pulled from the water by bystanders and carried to a nearby road parallel to the beach. Blosser said emergency responders from Lee County Emergency Medical Services and the Boca Grande Fire Department arranged for air transport within ten minutes of arriving at the scene. Lendel was airlifted to Tampa General Hospital, the region's only Level I trauma center. MORE: Shark attacks 9-year-old girl swimming off Florida's Gulf Coast, rescuers say According to updates shared on Instagram and in a public statement from the family, the shark bite left Lendel's wrist 'hanging on by just the skin.' Her mother, Nadia Lendel, wrote that surgeons inserted pins to stabilize her broken bones and transferred arteries from her leg to help restore blood flow to her hand. 'She thought she would lose her hand for good,' her mother posted. Leah underwent a lengthy surgery on Wednesday, according to the statement from her family. By the next morning, doctors restored movement in two of Lendel's fingers, though the rest of her hand remained numb, the statement said. Lendel's mother shared another update on social media Friday morning, saying that Lendel could move all her fingers and calling it a 'miracle.' She added that doctors decided Lendel did not need sedation and would change her cast to monitor the healing process. Blosser said shark bites are uncommon in the waters by Boca Grande, about 100 miles south of Tampa on Gasparilla Island. The last reported shark bite in the area occurred about five years ago, when a man was bitten after falling from a boat, he said. He said the risk can rise during tarpon season, when game fish draw sharks closer to shore. There's always some risk in Gulf waters, he said. 'But this is a very isolated incident.'

Fox News' Bret Baier Shares How Teen Son Paul's Emergency Open Heart Surgery Changed Him as a Parent (Exclusive)
Bret Baier shares an update with PEOPLE one year after his 17-year-old son Paul's fifth open heart surgery. Paul was born with five congenital heart defects, and had his first surgery right after he was born. One year after a scary aneurysm necessitated another emergency surgery, Bret says Paul is doing well, making college plans and enjoying life "like a normal kid."Bret Baier enters viewers' homes every weeknight as the host of Fox News' Special Report. And over the last few years, he's brought PEOPLE into a part of his own home life, sharing the story of his 17-year-old son, Paul. Paul was born with five congenital heart defects and, as Bret has previously explained to PEOPLE, "his heart was essentially pumping the wrong way, and we didn't know before birth.' Shortly after Paul's birth on June 29, 2007, he had his first open-heart procedure, then three more at 10 months old, 6 years old and 13 years old. After his surgery at 13, Paul's family thought that they would be done with the frightening hospital stays until he was in his 20s. Then in 2024, Paul came down with a common cold and, as a precaution, his mother, Amy, took him to the doctor. He had a chest X-ray, then an MRI. That's when the family faced another scary diagnosis. "The MRI comes back, and they sit me down and say, 'This is a really big deal. This is an aneurysm the size of a golf ball that has formed off of his heart,' " Bret told PEOPLE at the time. "And they didn't know whether it might burst, but if it did, it might have been fatal in a matter of minutes." Yet another open-heart operation followed, this one even more dire than the ones that came before. 'It was exponentially more stressful and emergent, and we weren't prepared for it,' Bret, 54, now recalls in a conversation ahead of Father's Day. 'This happened literally within 12 hours…so it was a heavy lift.' Thankfully, the surgery was successful, and a year later, Paul is doing just fine and thinking about his future. 'The recovery was awesome. The doctors and nurses at Children's National [Hospital, in Washington D.C.], as always, were fantastic,' Bret praises. 'And Paul is in the mind space [that] he just plows through it now. And I think, knock on wood, that that's the end of the open heart surgeries.' 'He may have to have little things going forward, angioplasties, which are not little, but it's exponentially less than an open heart surgery,' he adds. Fox News' chief political correspondent proudly shares that even though his eldest son 'missed a lot of school' due to the surgery, he recently finished his junior year of high school and has started to look ahead at colleges. 'Bottom line is, we want him to be a normal kid,' Bret says of his and Amy's hopes for Paul in the years to come. 'Seventeen years ago, we would be really, really happy to be right here — after that first surgery as a baby.' 'While we have in the back of our minds, [that he's] been through all of this and we're afraid of whatever could happen, we also know that it's better for him to be a normal kid and to be with his friends and to drive when they drive,' he continues. 'He does sports, he's very active, and once we got over that last hurdle last year, it's back to normal, so he's still beating up his little brother and the whole thing.' Bret and his family — Amy, Paul and 14-year-old Daniel — recently took a trip to the Masters golf tournament, a shared passion as Paul plays on his high school golf team. Next up is an overseas vacation to celebrate the start of summer. It'll be a nice break for the reporter, who has interviewed some major political power players already in 2025. He sat down with President Donald Trump just last month, and interviewed Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy right after his tense White House meeting with the president in February. 'I think world leader interviews really move the needle, not just here in the U.S. but obviously around the world,' he shares. 'I'm really trying to interview President Xi Jinping from China. I've been working on that for a long time, and would love for it to come together.' Bret also has the latest book in his presidential biography series, To Rescue the American Spirit: Teddy Roosevelt and the Birth of a Superpower, due out on Oct. 21. Never miss a story — sign up for to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories. With so many balls in the air, the journalist admits that he 'rarely' gets a chance to unplug. But when he does, looking at what Paul has been through in just 17 years of life helps him focus on what matters most. 'Everybody has something they're dealing with in their family,' Bret reflects. 'This was our something.' 'It gives me perspective about what's important,' he adds. 'I fully unplug and plug into my family, put the phone down if I can, and try to make those quality times. We've been through a lot to get there, and now we're trying to enjoy it." Read the original article on People
