Amitabh praises India's armed forces
Amitabh wrote how one falls "short for words" at the dedication of our armed forces. "You marvel at the dedication and will of our fighting men and women .. and you come back to the comfort of your home, when they that fight for your peace and calm and the very existence, put in their uniformed incredible effort to bring us our safety.

The veteran actor added that he is "filled with admiration and pride for them that give their all, for us". "I come back to day with the utmost learning for the Day .. and feel almost as though .. that from yesterday a guided hand brings me to the aspect of our forces which is never well known ..a prediction ..I have learnt ..

Shah Rukh Khan wins his 1st National Award: 5 life lessons to learn from the King of Bollywood
Shah Rukh Khan is one of the biggest stars in Indian cinema. For over 30 years, he has entertained millions of people around the world with his acting, charm, and dedication to his work. He's been called the 'King of Bollywood,' has won dozens of popular awards, and starred in many iconic films. But in 2025, something special happened — he won his first-ever National Film Award for Best Actor, for his performance in Jawan. His journey to this honour has not been easy. It's been filled with ups and downs, hits and flops, love and loss. Yet through it all, SRK has remained strong, humble, and passionate. Here are five life lessons we can learn from his incredible path to this moment. Even though Shah Rukh Khan became a superstar very early in his career, it took him more than three decades to win a National Award. This teaches us that even if you are doing well, some achievements may take longer than expected. What matters is that you keep going, keep believing, and never give up. Success doesn't always come when you want it — it comes when the time is right. SRK started his career by playing villains, then became the ultimate romantic hero in the '90s and 2000s. Later, he took on more complex and action-filled roles like in Pathaan and Jawan. He has always tried something new and changed with the times. His journey shows that to stay relevant and grow in life, we need to be open to learning, changing, and trying different things — even if they scare us a little. There have been times when SRK faced failures at the box office, criticism from the public, and even personal heartbreak. But he never gave up or lashed out. He stayed quiet, focused on his work, and came back stronger. Life will not always be perfect, but how we deal with the hard times says a lot about who we are. SRK shows us that calm strength is more powerful than loud noise. Even after receiving one of the highest honours in Indian cinema, Shah Rukh Khan kept his message simple and sweet. He said, 'Overwhelmed with the love showered upon me. Half a hug to everyone today (sic).' He didn't brag or make a big speech. He just shared his love and gratitude. This reminds us that no matter how far we go in life, it's important to stay grounded and thankful. From the start of his career until now, Shah Rukh Khan's love for cinema has never faded. He puts his heart into every role and truly enjoys the process of filmmaking. He often says that acting and storytelling are like breathing for him — something he can't live without. His journey proves that if you are truly passionate about something, and you keep working hard at it, success will follow — even if it takes time. Shah Rukh Khan's journey to his first National Award is more than just a career milestone — it's an inspiring story of patience, growth, and passion. Whether you're a fan or not, there's something we can all learn from the way he has carried himself over the years. Keep going, stay humble, love what you do, and trust the journey — just like SRK.

Paradyse Perfumes: India's Cultural Awakening in the Fragrance World
VMPL New Delhi [India], August 1: In a market long shaped by Western influence, India's perfume industry has lived through a quiet identity crisis. For years, Indian fragrance brands have packaged their creations in French-sounding names, styled them with generic international flair, and followed foreign trends to win validation abandoning their own olfactory heritage in the process. The result? An industry built in the land of attars, perfumes and ancient rituals became a mirror of someone else's story. Paradyse Perfumes is here to change that. A Cultural Revolution in a Bottle Paradyse Perfumes is not just a perfume house it's a cultural intervention. Positioned as India's first culture-based luxury perfume brand, Paradyse perfumes crafts fragrances not from imported inspiration, but from India's own stories, memories, rituals, and timeless emotions. Every collection speaks from a different corner of India's collective consciousness: The God Collection - Fragrances inspired by divine mythology and spiritual authority Asura Collection - Scents born from dark power, rebellion, and primal charisma Madira Collection - Aged, intoxicating blends rooted in indulgence and ritual Kaamvasna Collection - Fragrances that celebrate desire with elegance and depth Here, perfume isn't just about how you smell. It's about who you are becoming. To experience it for yourself, visit the official website: The Paradyse Experience: Storytelling That Lives on Your Skin Where most perfume brands offer fragrance, Paradyse offers identity.

The packaging feels like an ancient manuscript. The names spark curiosity. And the scents leave behind a trail of memory and power. "People today are not just buying perfume they're buying a feeling. They want meaning. They want pride. And they deserve a scent that reflects them not someone else's culture." Paradyse delivers that experience proudly, unapologetically Indian. Proof of Concept: From Launch to ₹1 Crore/Month In just 6-7 months, Paradyse Perfumes has already crossed ₹1 crore in monthly gross revenue without celebrity tie-ins, paid influencer gimmicks, or foreign clout. The growth is fueled by loyal customers, emotional connection, and a team of warriors who believe in one mission: To end the brand identity crisis in Indian perfumery. Forever. The obsession is real. Customers are not just buying they're collecting, reviewing, flaunting. Mafia Oud in particular has become a cult hit, praised for its dominant personality and luxurious depth. Indra: The Rule and Black Tantra have also struck chords across demographics. This isn't just commerce-it's cultural demand. The Road Ahead: ₹100 Crore in Three Years Paradyse now has its sights set on the next frontier: building a ₹100 crore fragrance empire by 2028.
