"Please stop spreading rumours": Anirudh Ravichander on his wedding speculation

New Delhi [India], June 14 (ANI): Music composer Anirudh Ravichandar quashed the reports of his marriage, asking his fans to stop 'spreading rumours' about his wedding. After several online reports mentioned that Ravichandar would be announcing his marriage soon, the ace music composer took to his X handle to ask people not to spread rumours about his personal life. Responding to the buzz around his marriage, the Jailer and Leo music director wrote, 'Marriage ah? out guys. Please stop spreading rumours.' Meanwhile, Anirudh Ravichander is set to compose music for Nani starrer 'Paradise'. Earlier this year, actor Nani confirmed that composer Anirudh Ravichander will be creating the music for his upcoming film 'The Paradise'. The movie is directed by Srikanth Odela and marks their second collaboration after the hit film 'Dasara'. Talking about the film, 'The Paradise' is set in Hyderabad and promises an intense storyline. Production for 'The Paradise' has recently started; however, further details about the cast and crew are yet to be revealed. Anirudh Ravichander is known for his music composition in films like 'Jailer', 'Jawan', 'Master', 'Beast', 'Leo', 'Indian 2' and others. He is now considered one of the popular choices of producers and directors in the film industry. Ravichander was also featured in the promo video for Jailer 2, which the makers shared earlier this year to officially announce the film's sequel. In the video, Nelson Dilipkumar and Anirudh are seen chilling in a house in Goa when they are interrupted by some goons. These goons are killed by knives and guns thrown at them. Then, Rajinikanth makes a captivating entry. The release date of the movie has not been released yet. (ANI)

Under leadership of PM Modi, India is making premium global education available at affordable cost: Dharmendra Pradhan

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], June 14 (ANI): Stressing that the National Education Policy 2020 (NEP), envisions India as a global study destination, Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan, on Saturday, emphasised that with this initiative, they aim to realise the vision of Prime Minister Narendra Modi to position India as a global knowledge hub. The Ministry of Education has taken a major step towards realising the goals of internationalisation of education as envisioned in the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020. In a ceremonial event titled 'Mumbai Rising: Creating an International Education City' held in Mumbai today, Letters of Intent (LoIs) were issued to five globally reputed universities from the United Kingdom, Australia, the United States of America and Italy. The establishment of the branch campuses of University of York, University of Aberdeen, University of Western Australia, Illinois Institute of Technology and Instituto Europeo Di Design (IED), Italy, reflects a deep and growing trust in India's education ecosystem and is a major milestone as we mark five transformative years of the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020. Speaking on the occasion, Union Minister Dharmendra Pradhan said that NEP 2020 envisions India as a global study destination, offering premium education at an affordable cost. He added that with this initiative, we aim to realise the Prime Minister's vision of positioning India as a global knowledge hub. 'India is encouraging top international universities to establish campuses here, while empowering Indian Higher education institutions to expand globally,' he said. Union Minister Pradhan further added that this initiative reflects a growing two-way movement of ideas, talent and trust. 'India is not just participating in the global education ecosystem; we are shaping it,' he asserted. Pradhan said that Maharashtra's leadership in enterprise and intellect, and with Mumbai Educity emerging as a city where finance and technology meet education and research, Mumbai/Navi Mumbai will bridge Indian aspirations and global excellence. He further said that we are not just inviting foreign universities; we are co-creating ecosystems of innovation, entrepreneurship and research. 'As we mark five years of implementing the NEP 2020, this milestone exemplifies the spirit of Sankalp se Siddhi, the journey from resolution to realisation. It strengthens our shared goal of empowering youth and enabling innovation-led growth through education leading to Viksit Bharat,' the Union Minister said. Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis said that the swift issuance of LoIs reflects the speed and commitment of the Government. He thanked the PM for NEP 2020, which has a provision for foreign universities to be a part of the Indian education sector. The five universities, he noted, have added immense value to the State and NEP 2020 has truly opened doors for top global institutions to establish campuses in India. He further stated that talented Indian students who faced accessibility and affordability issues in pursuing foreign education can now do so in India at reduced costs. 'The Government aims to make accessible, global quality education across various domains and further talks are ongoing with 5 more universities,' Fadnavis stated. The LoIs handed over today allow the universities to establish their offshore branch campus in India. All five universities from UK, USA, Australia and Italy, receiving the LoIs are ranked among the top 500 in the QS World University Rankings, signifying strong global academic credibility. The University of Western Australia will establish two campuses, one each in Mumbai/Navi Mumbai and Chennai, reflecting the growing confidence of top institutions in India's regulatory and academic landscape. This is the first-time foreign universities will establish a presence in Mumbai/Navi Mumbai, with some expected to set up campuses in the upcoming Education City in Navi Mumbai under the UGC (Setting up and Operation of Campuses of Foreign Higher Educational Institutions in India) Regulations, 2023. The establishment of these university campuses in India will be beneficial for students, in terms of extending global course curriculum and study opportunities in India and for research, knowledge exchange, enterprise and engagement. Courses at the Mumbai/Navi Mumbai/Chennai campus will be offered at Undergraduate and Postgraduate levels in areas such as business, economics, computer science, public health, data science, design, and more. These are the disciplines that will drive India's development in the years ahead and shape the workforce of a 'Viksit Bharat.' The universities will launch more courses in the subsequent years of its operations in India. (ANI)
