A father met another father and what they shared was simply magical…
By a chance encounter on flight, I got the privilege to meet this incredibly inspiring parent.
As a father, I could understand the journey that he is paving for his 10 year old child, “Tejas.” Every parent wants the best for their children and in every way possible they ensure that they can provide an amazing life in the best possible way that they know of! Mr. Ritesh Pandey has been on a journey, one external and one that is deeply internal, proudly taking on the role of nurturer for himself and his family. He believes that one is gifted with the capability that’s why they are entrusted with this responsibility and owns it with a lot of pride.
Apart from being an amazing father, he is also a treasure trove of incredible thoughts and words, inspired by Rashmirathi penned by the notable poet Ramdhari Singh Dinkar.
If you are a parent who is nurturing a special child, this story will ignite you with hope and help build courage as you take on your journey with your children.
I feel privileged and grateful that I am in a position where I can share this heartwarming experience with you.
Please let’s help spread his inspiring story to as many people as possible.
Show your love and support to Mr Ritesh Pandey in every compassionate way you can.
Lots of Love and More Power To You Ritesh Ji…
You have inspired me and I am sure this will inspire many more.
Alshukran Ritesh Ji…
Alshukran Bandhu,
Alshukran Zindagi.

Staying true to his name, 'Abhay' - the Fearless one, a man who describes his life as a provocative journey and undauntedly wears his heart on his sleeves, it's our honour to have him on the podcast, "The Billion Dreams."
Abhay Deol, a name that conjures up images of a brooding Devdas, a witty conman in Oye Lucky! Lucky Oye!, or a carefree adventurer in Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara. But beyond the silver screen facade lies a man who defies easy categorization. Abhay Deol is more than just an actor; he's a thinker, a questioner, a seeker on a journey of self-discovery.
Born into Bollywood royalty, Deol could have easily coasted on family fame. Instead, he carved his own path, shunning formulaic roles and gravitating towards those that challenged him and resonated with his soul. His filmography reflects a restless spirit, a constant exploration of human complexities and societal issues. But Deol's quest isn't confined to the film sets. He's an avid traveler, seeking inspiration and understanding in diverse cultures and experiences. He's a vocal advocate for mental health awareness, openly discussing his own struggles and encouraging others to break the stigma. Deol's persona is an intriguing blend of contradictions. He's reserved yet enigmatic, introspective yet fiercely opinionated. He's comfortable in his own skin, unfazed by the trappings of fame, and more interested in exploring the depths of human experience than basking in the spotlight. He's a man who walks his own path, guided by his own compass, and that's perhaps what makes him so compelling, both on-screen and off.
Last seen together, sharing the screen for the drama series, 'Trial by Fire,' catch Ashish Vidyarthi & Abhay Deol in a candid tête-à-tête where they delve into the depths of the Indian film industry, dissect the role of fate, the price of bold choices, and the delicate dance between personal happiness and that of others. Brace yourself for a thought-provoking exploration of morality, artistic expression, and the power to craft your own life's narrative. This is more than a conversation; it's a journey into the hearts and minds of two extraordinary artists. Don't miss it!

Her path is a beacon for those aspiring to chase their dreams, break free from conventional constraints, and perceive obstacles as stepping stones to success.

In the warm glow of prosperous times, people come together like moths to a flame, a mix of sincere hearts and hidden motives. This delicate dance of status subtly shapes our relationships. Yet, as time gently unfolds, it peels away layers, revealing the true essence of those around us. In this journey, we learn to cherish the loyal friends who stand by us, while cautiously acknowledging the presence of those with less pure motives. In this unfolding narrative, we learn, grow, and find solace in the genuine warmth of real connections, ever mindful of the lessons time gracefully imparts.
Welcome to the 4th episode of "50 +Zindagi" where we explore the many dimensions of Status. This episode unpacks the elusive truth about status, scrutinizes society's heavy emphasis on it, and dissects how it shapes our relationships. Listen to Rupali as she recounts her life experiences and I narrate my rollercoaster journey from fame to downfall. Discover how time unmasks true intentions and gather revitalizing advice on moving beyond the superficial aspects of status to lead a life of meaningful existence. Join Rupali & me for a candid, introspective journey — this is more than just a podcast, it's an invitation to redefine your perspective on status and life.

Kahi dur kisse shuru hue aur baatein judti gayi, waqt yuh guzar gaya ki afsana ban gaya!
A Celebration of 20 years of friendship, of togetherness, a hug of comfort and the warmth of love; sometimes breaking bread and sip of hot chai; creating a world where thoughts flow like free verses, sharing our love for poetry like two friends sharing their favourite pie…. When Two Friends, Two Artists, poles apart yet so close together meet, come witness the Magic that gets created
In a fast-paced world, Manoj Tapadia is like a petrichor, rare yet familiarly pleasant, a filmmaker, screenwriter, and a poet, emerging as a luminary, weaving his unique narrative from the heart of Odisha's steel city, Rourkela, to the pulsating streets of Mumbai. Raised in Raipur, Chhattisgarh, amidst the rich milieu of Hindi literature, Manoj's journey is a testament to the power of enduring passion and cultural roots. Since setting foot in Mumbai in 1997, he has carved a niche in the advertising world, notably as the creative lead for Lifebuoy at Lowe Lintas and the mind behind the award-winning campaigns "Little Gandhi" and "Bindas Bol." His evolution from a junior copywriter to an acclaimed ad filmmaker, with over 100 films and accolades from both local and international forums, mirrors his deep-seated love for storytelling. Beyond the advertising realm, Manoj's talents have flourished in the Indian film industry, contributing to notable films like "Cheeni Kum" and "Madras Café" as a screenwriter, dialogue writer, and lyricist. As he currently juggles writing and directing TV commercials, scriptwriting for prominent directors, and nurturing his debut feature film, Manoj Tapadia remains, at his core, a storyteller – painting vivid narratives through lens, words, and verses.
In this incredible episode, Manoj Tapadia and Ashish Vidyarthi sit down in a candid conversation to chat about life and more. In this share of heart you will hear some unheard kisse from their lives; talking about Fate and free will; Stories ranging from Gulzaar Sahab, Dilip Kumar, and Julia Roberts to sharing their thoughts on the Animal Movie debate; How a writer pens a character sketch allowing you to take a peek into the mind of an artist; How each of their life journeys are influenced by poetry and prominent poets that left a mark in their hearts; How Manoj Tapadia became a writer and Why Ashish Vidyarthi doesn’t watch his own film?… this and many more revelations coming up in this impromptu meetup.
You don’t wanna miss this!

A pleasantly surprising meeting with Chef Sanjeev Kapoor and I discovered his secret recipe that has allowed him to succeed and stay relevant to date.
What’s the secret sauce you ask? Let’s find out in the video.
Welcome to another episode of, "The Billion Dreams" where we share the passion and dreams of people from all walks of life.

His journey began in 1984, and since then, he's captivated audiences with his infectious enthusiasm, easy-to-follow recipes, and his deep understanding of flavors. His show, "Khana Khazana," was the longest-running cooking show in Asia, reaching over 500 million viewers in 120 countries which he hosted for more than 17 years. He's also launched his own 24/7 food and lifestyle channel, Food Food, a restaurateur who has authored 150+ best-selling cookbooks. But beyond the glitz and glamour, Kapoor is dedicated to promoting healthy eating and using his platform to raise awareness about autism.

She knows the golden rules of living a happy life and finding value in the very existence of life. Embracing change and the eagerness to keep learning and growing is something that is worth appreciating in Nandini.
