India, 2nd July 2025 – Samrat Cinematics released a powerful and thought-provoking teaser of its much-anticipated film “Ajey: The Untold Story of Yogi” and it’s already stirring conversations across the nation. This cinematic masterpiece offers the first glimpse into the untold journey of a man who defied all odds to challenge a duplicitous system, break the backbone of the mafia raj, and rise as a beacon of transformation—a Yogi with a mission to clean the system from within. The teaser questions mainstream perceptions: Is a Yogi just a spiritual leader or a force capable of dismantling a deep-rooted rotting system? Through intense visuals and a charged narrative, viewers are introduced to a saffron-clad revolutionary—calm in posture but fierce in purpose—who fearlessly enters the lion’s den of political power and underworld control. The voiceover and visuals hint at both internal political sabotage and external threats, building anticipation around the central character’s ideological and physical battles. "The teaser of Ajey is just a glimpse into a powerful story that dares to challenge the status quo. We’ve crafted it to spark curiosity and stir emotions—it introduces a Yogi not just as a spiritual figure, but as a fearless reformer who walks into the heart of corruption to clean it from within. The reactions we’re getting prove that people are ready for a bold, purpose-driven narrative." Ritu Mengi, Producer, Samrat Cinematics. Actor Anant Vijay Joshi stuns with his raw and fiery portrayal of the Yogi figure, promising a layered performance that oscillates between restraint and rebellion. The teaser also highlights the film’s high production values, gripping cinematography, and sharp dialogues that pierce through the noise of traditional political biopics. Set against the backdrop of Uttar Pradesh’s volatile political landscape, “Ajey” is not just a film—it’s a movement that reflects the inner voice of the common man, the anger of youth, and the cry for real leadership. The mention of his “Janta Darbar” in the teaser symbolizes a direct connection between power and the people—a rare trait in modern governance. Headlined by Anantvijay Joshi in a career-defining role, the film also features Paresh Rawal, Dineshlal Yadav “Nirahua”, Ajay Mengi, Rajesh Khattar, Pawan Malhotra and Garima Vikrant Singh in key roles. Directed by Ravindra Gautam and produced by Ritu Mengi, the film is backed by a sharp screenplay from Dilip Bachchan Jha and Priyank Dubey and a stirring music by Meet Bros. The director of photography is Vishnu Rao, production designer is Udai Prakash Singh and associate producers are (Suuraj Sinngh) B-Live Productions and Itihasa Academy. Ajey dares to ask: What happens when a monk walks into a system riddled with crime, corruption, and conspiracy—not to meditate, but to change it forever?

We Are Investing Not Just in Infrastructure, But in Innovation and Sustainability”: Sanathan Textiles’ Sammir Dattani at Coimbatore Conclave Coimbatore, 1st July 2025 — At the 3rd Manmade Fibre Conclave held in Coimbatore, Mr. Sammir Dattani, Executive Director, Sanathan Textiles, shared critical insights on India’s MMF (Man Made Fibre) sector, calling for bold investments to future-proof the textile value chain. “We are investing not just in infrastructure, but in innovation and sustainability as well,” Mr. Dattani remarked during the panel on "Scaling Up: Investment Opportunities and Strategic Challenges in the Indian MMF Value Chain." Mr. Dattani emphasized the urgent need to address the supply–demand mismatch in the Indian MMF segment, noting that despite rising consumption across fashion, furnishings, automotive and activewear segments, India’s production capacity still lags behind global benchmarks. This presents a compelling opportunity for expansion and innovation. He also acknowledged the supportive policy environment being fostered by the government, including PLI schemes and infrastructure incentives, but stressed that supply constraints — such as limited access to high-grade raw materials and technology gaps — continue to hinder rapid scale-up. In line with this, Sanathan Textiles is setting up a new Greenfield facility in Wazirabad, Punjab, spanning over 100 acres. The facility will significantly boost MMF yarn production, create jobs, and enhance the company’s northern supply chain network, while also serving as a model for sustainable and regional manufacturing. Sanathan’s innovation-led product range includes, Sanathan Reviro – yarns made from recycled PET bottles; CDP yarns – offering improved stretch and design flexibility; and Born Dyed yarns – eliminating the need for water-intensive dyeing. These high-value offerings cater to both domestic and export markets and align with the growing global competitiveness of India’s textile sector. Mr. Dattani also underscored the importance of collaborations and industry partnerships, especially in R&D, recycling, and digitization, to unlock scale and drive export-led growth. He further pointed to supply chain inefficiencies as a critical area for intervention. Solutions such as regional clusters, multi-modal logistics, and sourcing integration could reduce lead times and make India a more attractive global supplier of MMF-based textiles. As India looks to shift towards MMF-led textile growth, companies like Sanathan are set to lead the transition with investments that balance scale, sustainability, and innovation.

Mumbai to Host West Zone Regional Abilympics & Sarthak’s 17th Foundation Day; Focus on Skilling Divyangjan for Finland 2027 · On July 4–5, 2025, at the World Trade Centre, Mumbai Mumbai, 30th June 2025 — Known as India’s commercial capital and a city that thrives on ambition and diversity, Mumbai is now gearing up to host one of the country’s most impactful inclusion events — the West Zone Regional Abilympics & Sarthak’s 17th Foundation Day, on July 4–5, 2025, at the World Trade Centre, Mumbai. Organised by the National Abilympic Association of India (NAAI) and Sarthak Educational Trust, with support from the Department of Empowerment of Persons with Disabilities (DEPwD) GoI, TPCDT, and IndusInd Bank, the event is part of India’s ongoing campaign toward the 11th International Abilympics competitions scheduled in Finland 2027. The event marks the second leg of Phase 2 in the ongoing Abilympics Skill Competitions & Conferences 2025 — following the successful South Zone edition in Chennai — and also commemorates 17 years of Sarthak’s mission to empower Persons with Disabilities (PwDs) through skill development, employment, and inclusion. Participants from different states — Maharashtra, Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh, and Goa — will compete in 15 vocational skill categories, covering domains like Crafts, ICT, Hospitality, and Services. Skills featured include Photography (Studio), Character Design, English Desktop Publishing, Hand Knitting, Crochet, Basket Making, Hairdressing, Massage, Fashion Design, Cake Decoration, Patisserie & Confectionery, Engineering Design, and Cleaning Services. All competitions are aligned with international standards set by the Finland Abilympics, building India’s readiness for Abilympics Finland 2027. Beyond competitions, the event will feature sectoral panel discussions with policymakers, CSR leaders, inclusive employers, media voices, and technology innovators. These dialogues will focus on assistive tech, inclusive hiring, media representation, and scalable skilling models for PwDs. Distinguished guests include Smt. Manisha Verma, Additional Chief Secretary, Skill Development, Employment, Entrepreneurship and Innovation, Government of Maharashtra; Smt. Manmeet Kaur Nanda, Additional Secretary, DEPwD, Government Of India; Shri Anil Diggikar, Additional Chief Secretary, Persons with Disabilities Welfare Department, Government of Maharashtra Shri Nitin Patil, Commissioner--Skill Development, Employment, Entrepreneurship, and Innovation, Government of Maharashtra; Dr. Vijay Kalantari, Chairman, World trade Center, Mumbai and other regional and national changemakers. “This is more than a competition. It’s a movement to unlock economic dignity, confidence, and careers for millions of PwDs across India,” said Dr. Jitender Aggarwal, Secretary-General NAAI and Founder & CEO of Sarthak Educational Trust. “At Sarthak, we are not just building skills—we are building futures. Our mission to empower 10 million PwDs and facilitate over 2 lakh sustainable job placements by 2027 is what drives our every effort.” The initiative aligns closely with the National Action Plan for Skill Development of Persons with Disabilities (NAP-SDP) and is backed by Sarthak’s GyanSarathi—India’s first accessible e-learning platform tailored for PwDs, promoting flexible, scalable, and inclusive skill delivery. The momentum is real. In 2023, India participated in the International Abilympics in Metz, France, sending 13 candidates across 12 skill categories and securing 7 medals (1 Gold, 2 Silver, 3 Bronze, and 1 Medal of Excellence). Stories like Chetan Pashilkar (Gold medallist in Painting & Waste Reuse) and P. Sai Krishnan (Photography medallist) are proof that structured training and visibility can transform lives. The Mumbai edition will not only drive India’s preparation for Finland 2027, but also serve as a platform to celebrate 17 years of Sarthak Educational Trust, spotlighting the journeys of PwDs who’ve overcome barriers and found mainstream inclusion. From live skill competitions and inclusive dialogues to networking with employers and changemakers, the West Zone Abilympics promises to be a turning point in India’s inclusion movement. As Mumbai joins the national momentum, the message is clear: Disability is not a lack of ability, but a reservoir of untapped talent and possibilities. The West Zone Abilympics 2025 is not just an event, it’s a declaration of India’s vision for an inclusive, skilled, and empowered future.
