</div><br></div><div>Mumbai: Asana, a leading work management platform for human + AI collaboration, concluded its Work Innovation Tour in Mumbai, bringing together enterprise leaders and practitioners to explore how human + AI collaboration can drive clarity and execution at scale. Held at the Courtyard by Marriott Mumbai International Airport, the event showcased how organizations can move beyond automation to build workflows that strengthen decision-making and reduce work about work.</div><div><br></div><div>As AI adoption accelerates across Indian enterprises, teams face a critical challenge: integrating AI in ways that enhance rather than fragment work. According to recent industry insights, organizations risk increasing complexity when AI tools operate in silos, making clarity and connected workflows more essential than ever.</div><div><br></div><div>The day opened with a keynote on the future of human + AI collaboration, where Ms. Jo Gaines, Head of Channel APJ, at Asana shared how organisations can move beyond basic automation and use AI to support better decisions across teams. Attendees also heard how Asana AI helps people understand context, spot risks early, and bring scattered work into one place so everyone stays connected.</div><div><br></div><div>"As AI becomes embedded in how work gets done, clarity becomes the competitive advantage," *said Vishnu Prasad, Head of South Asia at Asana.* "The most effective human + AI collaboration amplifies judgment and decision-making. When teams have connected workflows and the right context at the right time, they can move from coordination overhead to strategic execution. That's the shift we're seeing with forward-thinking organizations in India."</div><div><br></div><div>Following the keynote, Shannon Tjang, Solutions Engineer at Asana, demonstrated how cross-functional teams use connected workflows to eliminate bottlenecks and reduce repetitive coordination. Through live examples spanning marketing campaigns, product launches, and operational processes, attendees saw how integrated work management reduces delays and creates a single source of truth across departments.</div><div><br></div><div>A customer panel featuring leaders from Artha Group and 99acres provided ground-level insights into transformation challenges. Panelists discussed how they've addressed common pain points, including unclear task ownership, distributed information, and cross-team dependencies, and shared measurable improvements in project delivery speed and stakeholder alignment since implementing Asana.</div><div><br></div><div>Reflecting on the opportunity in India, Jo Gaines, Head of Channel APJ, at Asana, said, "India represents one of the most dynamic markets for work innovation globally. Organizations here are fundamentally rethinking how work scales. We're seeing strong demand for platforms that bring structure to complexity and enable teams to collaborate with clarity. Indian enterprises are at the forefront of defining what effective human + AI collaboration looks like at scale."</div><div><br></div><div>The event concluded with a fireside chat between Vishnu Prasad and entrepreneur and author Ankur Warikoo, exploring how leadership evolves in an AI-augmented workplace. Their discussion examined the cultural foundations such as psychological safety, transparent decision-making, and adaptive learning that enable organizations to harness technological change without losing human judgment and creativity.</div><div><br></div><div>The Work Innovation Tour India demonstrates Asana's commitment to helping organizations build work systems that scale with clarity and purpose. As enterprises navigate rapid technological change, the event reinforced that sustainable success comes from platforms that connect people, process, and AI in ways that drive measurable business impact.</div>

</div><br></div><div>Actress Vandana K. Patil, who is making a name for herself in the Hindi and Marathi industries, is among the select few who are forging ahead with hard work, dedication, and a constant curiosity to learn. She has made an impact with her acting in every medium, including films, web series, TV shows, and music videos. In addition to acting, she has also worked as an associate director, and her command of Lavani and Bollywood dance makes her even more versatile.</div><div><br></div><div>Vandana understands the psychological layers of each character before playing them. On set, she pays attention not only to her acting but also to camera angles, framing, and technical procedures. Learning from experienced actors, reading books, and improving her dialogue delivery are part of her daily routine. Negative roles are her favorite because they pose a greater challenge in terms of expression, vibes, and attitude, and she thoroughly enjoys them.</div><div><br></div><div>Her career so far includes six Marathi shows, two Marathi films, several web series, and Hindi projects. While playing a police officer in the TV show "Partner," she met Asrani and many other renowned actors, which taught her a lot on the job. Vandana's Hindi film has already been released on the Shemaroo app, in which she plays a strong cop. Upcoming films include "Ek Tu Hi Nirankar," in which she will be seen alongside veteran actor Kulbhushan Kharbanda. She plays a pivotal role as a journalist in "Zila Hathras," which will soon be released on DD One's OTT platform. Shooting for a new film is also about to begin soon.</div><div><br></div><div>Vandana's journey has been as strong as it has been full of struggles. In her early days, she often had only ten rupees to spend. She often had to choose between eating or buying a ticket for travel. She chose to buy a ticket because reaching work was her most important goal. She didn't want to compromise her ideals by traveling without a ticket. Many times, breakfast would be over by the time she arrived on set, and she would shoot with complete dedication on an empty stomach. She believes that newcomers to the industry, those without a godfather, promise their parents that they will earn a name through hard work. However, many people, swayed by circumstances or influenced by others, end up going in the wrong direction. Vandana always advises to be patient, because opportunities, even if delayed, will surely come.</div><div><br></div><div>She says, "Don't do anything against your conscience. Do something that makes you feel proud when you look at yourself in the mirror, not regretful."</div><div><br></div><div>She further adds that there are struggles in this world of dreams, but when it does, it gives in abundance.</div><div><br></div><div>Vandana, a resident of Nashik, began her acting journey by chance when she came to Mumbai with her friend. There, she met her friend's friend, a still photographer. A Marathi serial was being shot there. Suddenly, the serial's team said, "Someone wants to do a two-line dialogue." Vandana agreed, landing the role. Later, after seeing her on TV, her relatives and neighbors praised her profusely. This gave her the confidence to pursue acting. Back then, she didn't even know the show was a hit Marathi serial. This moment changed the course of her career, and she made Mumbai her workplace.</div><div><br></div><div>Today, Vandana K. Patil is among those actresses who turn struggles into strengths, not weaknesses. Her constant desire to learn, hard work, professionalism, and passion for immersing herself in each role firmly establish her as one of the new generation of inspiring artists. She has several projects releasing in the coming days, and audiences are excited to see her in diverse roles.</div>

Upon returning to India after hoisting the flag of Indian culture in the London Parliament, Sanatan devotees welcomed Waterwoman Shipra Pathak with a shower of flowers and music, accompanied by chants of "Jai Bharat Jai Sanatan" at the international airport. Upon emerging from the airport and seeing the large number of Sanatan devotees who had gathered to welcome her, Shipra became emotional and said that the world is looking at the new India with a new perspective, according to which today's India, along with its strength in security and prosperity, is also making its culture and spirituality known throughout the world.</div><div><br></div><div>During his three-day visit to London, the Mayor of London released the English version of the book "Mahakumbh", written by Shipra Pathak, based on the divinity of the Mahakumbh and the work of the Panchtatva Sansthan at the Mahakumbh. This English translation of the Indian Sanatan Sansthan has created a sensation since its release. The British, having embraced Sanatan Sansthan, have received 250 books and ordered approximately 1,000 more.

</div><br></div><div>Mumbai: Maharashtra’s accelerating vertical growth—particularly in Mumbai and Pune—has intensified the need for immediate adaptation of elevator safety and fire-evacuation infrastructure regulations. While high-rise residential projects continue to rise as a sign of economic progress, experts warn that safety regulations have not kept pace with this construction boom.</div><div><br></div><div>Global projections show the residential elevator market reaching USD 65.14 billion by 2032, with India playing a major role due to its rapidly expanding high-density urban clusters. However, this vertical expansion has exposed critical gaps in fire-safety compliance, especially in buildings that lack proper evacuation systems despite state regulations mandating fire-evacuation lifts for high-rises.</div><div><br></div><div>Ongoing Gaps in High-Rise Fire Safety</div><div><br></div><div>Across Mumbai, Thane, Navi Mumbai, Pune and other urban centres, several older buildings still fall short of requirements outlined under the Maharashtra Fire Prevention and Life Safety Measures Act. The Act mandates functioning fire-fighting lifts, alarm systems, designated refuge areas and biannual safety audits.</div><div>Following the Dahisar fire incident in September 2025, the BMC moved to make electrical audits mandatory as well, recognising their importance alongside fire audits. According to Additional Municipal Commissioner Amit Saini, this proposal will be presented to the state government after the Municipal Commissioner’s approval.</div><div><br></div><div>Dr. Deepak Monga, Fire Safety and Evacuation Expert, notes, “Mumbai has the highest number of high-rises in the country, yet many operate without adequate fire-evacuation lifts. As elevator installations increase, the responsibility to ensure proper maintenance, audits, and safe evacuation systems becomes even more critical. Inadequate systems are not a technical lapse—they are life-threatening.”</div><div><br></div><div>Experts Urge Immediate Action:</div><div>• Stricter enforcement of fire-safety audits</div><div>• Mandatory fire-evacuation lifts for all eligible high-rises</div><div>• Retrofitting older buildings with compliant systems</div><div>• Regular resident fire-drills and transparent maintenance records</div><div>• Adoption of smart elevator features such as backup power and fire-rated cabins</div>

</div><br></div><div>Meril Strengthens Its Position as a Leader in India’s Advancing MedTech Landscape</div><div><br></div><div>Mumbai: A 44-year-old male patient suffering from a severe heart condition, marked by extreme breathlessness, swollen feet, and an inability to carry out daily activities, has experienced a significant turnaround after undergoing Mumbai’s first Transcatheter Edge-to-Edge Repair (TEER) procedure. This minimally invasive cardiac therapy provides a vital alternative for patients who are too high-risk for open-heart surgery and is redefining treatment pathways for mitral valve disease in India.</div><div><br></div><div>The patient had been diagnosed with severe mitral regurgitation (MR), a condition in which the heart’s mitral valve does not close properly, causing blood to leak backward into the upper chamber. His symptoms had progressed to the point where routine activities such as walking short distances or climbing stairs had become highly restrictive.</div><div>Traditional treatments like open-heart surgery or heart transplant were not suitable because of his compromised heart function and associated risks. TEER—an advanced catheter-based therapy—was recommended as the safest and most effective option.</div><div><br></div><div>TEER offers a non-surgical solution for valve repair through a minimally invasive approach, significantly reducing procedural risks and shortening recovery time. The successful procedure was performed by Dr. Ankur Phatarpekar, Chief Cardiologist, HVS Symbiosis Hospital, along with other participants Dr. Meghav Shah, Structural Interventional Cardiologist & Dr. Gourish Shinde, HVS Symbiosis Hospital, Dadar, Mumbai marking a major advancement in the availability of high-end cardiac care in the city.</div><div><br></div><div>Post-procedure, the patient showed substantial improvement. His breathlessness decreased, his mobility improved, and he is now able to resume daily activities—reflecting the effectiveness and patient-friendly nature of TEER therapy.</div><div><br></div><div>Sharing his insights, Dr. Ankur Phatarpekar said, “TEER therapy is a crucial option for patients who cannot undergo open-heart surgery due to comorbidities or advanced heart failure. Severe mitral regurgitation, if left untreated, significantly increases mortality. TEER allows us to offer a safe, effective, and minimally invasive solution with markedly reduced risks. Introducing this therapy in Mumbai empowers us to treat high-risk patients who earlier had very limited options.”</div><div><br></div><div>Meril’s Role in Advancing India’s MedTech Landscape:</div><div>The successful introduction of TEER in Mumbai underscores the transformative role Meril is playing in the country’s medtech sector. Through continuous innovation, development of advanced interventional cardiovascular solutions, and a strong commitment to research-driven engineering, Meril is enhancing India's capability to deliver world-class, accessible, and patient-centered cardiac therapies.</div><div><br></div><div>By expanding access to cutting-edge cardiac interventions, Meril is strengthening India’s position on the global medtech map and helping ensure that sophisticated treatments reach patients across the country.</div>
