India is the world’s largest producer of films, second largest TV market & top consumer of video. Yet its entire media & entertainment industry is just a third of say TheWaltDisneyCompany or a fifth of Comcast. How can it scale to its true potential? business-standard.com/opinion/column…

#SitaareZameenPar made the Khandekars laugh (a lot) & cry (a bit). It is a poignant reminder of our elder son (who is no more). He was special & his normal was different too. Thanks Aamir Khan Productions Prasanna RS for this absolute gem. The best in 2025 after Superboys of Malegaon

I love the show.. but this season of #panchayats4 The Viral Fever on Amazon Prime seems weak. It was a sweet show that displayed so much wisdom in everyday life. It seems to have lost its sweetness. Too many cliches. It felt like one was watching a daily soap. Buckle up guys.

It needs gumption to get out of the vicious circle the film business is caught in. Aamir Khan Productions SVF Dolby India Dharma Productions Baweja Studios are showing the way. Why isn't anyone paying attention to the pathetic state of film marketing though? business-standard.com/opinion/column…

Long time no print. At INMA South Asia conference .. had an animated discussion with Anant Goenka Ashish Bhasin on the relevance of newspapers. Print journalists are the original constant creators in any news ecosystem. Time for them to occupy that place online too.
