Kids of academy in Pakistan @surtaalacademy sing a song Alfaaz, gets shared by Norwegian singer William that goes on to become the most played song at Diwali parties across India!
#happydiwali
A group of children singing Qawwali at a music academy in Lahore has brought Indians and Pakistanis on social media together, with users from both countries praising the young performers. Dubbed “little Nusrats” after an Indian user described them as such on X, the child singers have won hearts across the subcontinent. The video has garnered more than 10 million views.
The widely shared clip shows the children singing ‘Alfaaz’, a Punjabi song, alongside William Gamborg, a member of Norwegian hip-hop group Quickstyle. Reacting to the video, an X user named Adnan Dawood wrote, “When you lift the veil of hate.. you will realise there was no enmity between our people and yours. Same music, same food, you look like us/ we look like you. The enmity was manufactured by a few to keep them relevant.”

There isn’t. My only problem is with letting the automobile lobby dictate the anti-pollution fight

लोन वसूली करने के नाम पर भारत में जो गुंडागर्दी का धंधा चल रहा है, उस पर बहुत ज्यादा सख्त कार्रवाई की जरूरत है। इन्हें खुला हाथ मिला हुआ है। कोई भी लोन लेकर किसी का भी नंबर दे देता है रिफरेंस में, और फिर ये पूरे गिरोह उसके पीछे पड़ जाते हैं। धमकियां, गालियां, स्पैम कॉल्स। अरे भई, हमारा उस व्यक्ति न लेना एक न देना दो, फिर हमें क्यों परेशान कर रहे हैं।

School bags aren’t the only culprit behind back pain in children.
Prolonged sitting, excessive screen time, less outdoor activity and poor movement habits are emerging as bigger concerns. #ChildHealth #BackPain #ScreenTime #Physiotherapy #HealthNews @timesofindia @SriToosh

It was a pleasure to meet the team from Blockchain for Impact today. I’m deeply impressed by their philanthropic activities and support to the biomedical deep-tech ecosystem in India. I’m excited by the possibility of collaborating with them across AP’s emerging innovation clusters and in further developing our startup ecosystem.
Honoured to meet Shri Nara Lokesh, Minister for IT, Electronics & Communication, Human Resources Development, and RTG, Government of Andhra Pradesh.
The Minister's vision for Andhra Pradesh brings healthcare, science, and technology into one ecosystem, from a world-class hospital and research hub in Visakhapatnam to a planned biotechnology park and Amaravati Quantum Valley. It is a rare and ambitious approach, one that gives science and its innovators room to scale.
At BFI, we support the researchers, clinicians, and founders who are the backbone of such an ecosystem. We shared how our philanthropic support is helping strengthen the biomedical pipeline at every stage, from early-stage research to healthcare innovation to startups taking their first steps.
We believe that when public vision meets catalytic philanthropy, the system moves faster and the impact reaches further.
Grateful for the Minister's time and for a thoughtful conversation on the future of India's biomedical sector.

Nothing breaks my heart more than seeing elderly people navigate hospitals alone, trying to figure out labs, billing, consultations, and everything in between.
Naar restaurant is one of the best meal experiences in India. What chef Prateek and Akshay have created in the hills in Himachal Pradesh is remarkable!

The people building AI earnestly believe that it could kill us all by the end of the decade. This is not a marketing stunt. If anything, many executives and senior researchers will couch their phrasing in the press to sound sensible - but I hear the same people express fear privately. No other human activity poses this level of danger.

I resigned from Anthropic today. I spent the last three years doing pretraining research at both OpenAI and Anthropic. Neither company is acting responsibly. They are racing straight to self-improving superintelligence and gambling with our lives. More thoughts below.

May have had the best Indian fine dining of all time at the early preview for Gaggan’s new restaurant, Raga, in Delhi!
Gaggan Anand blew up after the Chef’s Table episode (S2E6) used to run arguably the world’s best Indian restaurant (called Gaggan, in Bangkok), ranked 4th in 2019.
Raga is a 22 course tasting menu with quintessential Indian flavors packed in strange surprises. Nothing is quite what it seems. It’s booked out for 3 months so make your reservations quick, and definitely skip lunch that day.
Run clubs have mushroomed across Delhi in the last two years, and what started as a fitness trend now looks like a genuine movement. The problem is, the city’s infrastructure hasn’t caught up.
