Their work spanned international film sales, business development meetings with global buyers, client network expansion, and film branding strategy – substantive responsibilities that went well beyond the typical intern brief.</div><div><br></div><div>Cannes Lions draws professionals from over 90 countries each year. Intern selection is competitive and merit-driven, with no concessions for age or inexperience. That MET IMM students not only earned those spots but performed substantive, industry-level work over three months is a reflection of both individual ability and the rigour of training the institute delivers.</div><div><br></div><div>Adding to the momentum, a student film from MET IMM has won recognition at the Indian International Film Festival (IIFF). ‘The White House of Circles’, a documentary, explores the world of Warli painting, one of India's oldest and most distinctive indigenous art forms, through a lens that is as much social as it is aesthetic. The IIFF recognition further underlines MET IMM's strength in film and entertainment education, and its commitment to storytelling that goes beyond craft to carry genuine cultural weight.</div><div><br></div><div>Dr Priya Menon Nair, MET Institute of Mass Media, said, "We have always believed that the best education happens when classroom studies are supplemented with real world experience. The prestigious Cannes internships combined with our IIFF recognition speaks to the kind of students MET IMM produces: ones who are ready before the industry expects them to be.”</div><div><br></div><div>Pankaj Bhujbal, Trustee, MET, said, "These recognitions, Cannes Lions and IIFF in the same season, are a source of immense pride for the entire MET family. Our students competing with, and holding their own against, the best young talent globally is the clearest possible validation of what we set out to build. Storytelling, creativity, and professional excellence have always been at the heart of MET IMM, and our students are now carrying that to the world's biggest stages."</div><div><br></div><div>Established in 2005 under the Mumbai Educational Trust, MET IMM is one of India's leading postgraduate media institutions, with strong industry relationships spanning Jio Creative Labs, Zee, Ogilvy, Leo Burnett, Viacom18, Disney Star, and Netflix, among others. The institute holds a Diamond rating from the QS I-GAUGE Indian College Rating (2025) and was named Outstanding Institute for Mass Media Management by the World Education Summit in 2019.</div><div><br></div><div>The achievements reflect MET IMM's long-standing commitment to producing media professionals who are equipped to compete and succeed on a global stage.</div>

(TRIL), a premier subsidiary of Tata Sons and Salesforce, AI CRM, have announced the successful deployment of Salesforce’s Agentforce platform to transform customer engagement across TRIL’s portfolio. The implementation has significantly enhanced responsiveness, reducing first response times from days to just 8 hours, while enabling the company to manage thousands of customer interactions simultaneously.</div><div><br></div><div>The transformation has delivered measurable business results with a 10% increase in conversion rates, 30% boost in lead qualification, and 50-60% email open rates, demonstrating how AI agents and unified data are reshaping customer experience in real estate.</div><div><br></div><div>TRIL deployed Agentforce Marketing, Agentforce Sales, and Agentforce Service unified through Data 360, creating a single, real-time view of every customer across their entire journey, from first inquiry to post-purchase support. This integrated approach allows AI-powered agents to work alongside human teams, delivering personalized, always-on service at scale. The platform enables 24/7 lead qualification across WhatsApp, SMS, and email, and provides real-time recommendations to sales teams. It also routes complex queries to the right specialists and powers live dashboards that give leadership continuous visibility into customer interactions.</div><div><br></div><div>TRIL’s customer-first philosophy has always been central to its success. As digital-savvy homebuyers began expecting immediate responses and integrated experiences across channels, the company saw an opportunity to set a new industry standard. The vision was clear, to create a unified platform where every customer interaction — from first inquiry to post-purchase service — would be instantly accessible to any team member. </div><div><br></div><div>Sanjay Dutt (MD and CEO, Tata Realty and Infrastructure Limited) on this development said that, “Our partnership with Salesforce has enabled us to bring together data, intelligence, and automation into a single, cohesive ecosystem.

In Tata Realty's case, the answer is clear. Buyers receive responses in hours instead of days. Sales teams spend more time building relationships and less time searching for information. Leadership makes decisions based on real-time data. This is exactly how AI should work — augmenting human capability, improving efficiency, and ultimately delivering better customer outcomes. It's a solid example of how together, we are setting a new standard for intelligent, personalized engagement in Indian real estate.”</div><div><br></div><div>As India's real estate market continues to evolve, TRIL’s investment in AI-powered customer engagement positions the company to scale personalized service across its growing portfolio while maintaining the premium experience its customers expect.</div><div><br></div><div>Known for its premium projects and customer-first thinking, TRIL is now looking to further strengthen its operations and customer engagement. Looking ahead, TRIL is extending Salesforce into its commercial real estate business, while the residential division is advancing into Phase Two with Agentforce Marketing and Data 360 to deepen personalization and insight.</div>

With this spirit, Narayan Seva Sansthan, in association with Shri Radha Krishna Charitable Foundation USA, organized a mega free disability surgery screening, selection, and measurement camp for Japanese and German technology-based 3D-printed Narayan Modular Artificial Limbs on Sunday at Nico Hall, Dadar (East), Mumbai. </div><div> The institution’s team of expert doctors and P&O (Prosthetic and Orthotic) specialists conducted detailed assessments of each patient’s physical condition, balance, muscle control, and movement to initiate the customized design process for artificial limbs according to individual needs. </div><div> The Narayan Modular Artificial Limb is based on Japanese and German engineering technology and uses high-quality, lightweight, durable, and strong components. Due to the 3D-printed socket technology, the fitting of the limb becomes more precise, enabling users to experience greater comfort, balance, and ease in mobility. Compared to traditional prosthetics, this technology is considered more ergonomic, lightweight, and long-lasting. </div><div> Dr. Manas Ranjan Sahu stated that the digital measurement system allows customized limbs to be developed according to each beneficiary’s body structure. This significantly reduces issues such as friction, pain, and imbalance, enabling users to walk and move in a more natural manner. Many differently-abled individuals appeared excited to be connected with such advanced technology-based prosthetic services for the first time. </div><div> Mumbai Branch President Mahesh Agarwal and Trustee Devendra Chaubisa welcomed chief guest Jay Shree Ben from Radha Krishna Charitable Foundation, Dadar MLA Kalidas Kolambkar, Siyarams Group’s Ramesh Asha Poddar, Rotary Queen City President Dr. Shyam and Sadhana Singhania, social worker Nimmi Torani, Agarwal Sammelan’s Shivkant Khetan, Ojas Sansthan’s Atul Shah, former Rotary Governor Dr. Rajendra Agrawal, along with members and guests of the institution. </div><div>The camp was inaugurated with the ceremonial lighting of the lamp by Jay Shree Ben, MLA Kalidas Kolambkar, and other dignitaries. Addressing the gathering, the chief guest said that Narayan Seva Sansthan is carrying out true social innovation by bringing modern technology to the last person in society. They added that providing world-class prosthetic limbs free of cost to economically weaker differently-abled individuals is an inspiring and highly commendable initiative. </div><div> Presiding over the event, MLA Kalidas Kolambkar said that the institution is not merely providing treatment but is restoring dignity and self-reliance to differently-abled individuals through technology. He remarked that when a person stands on their feet again after years or regains the ability to work with their hands, it symbolizes not just medical care but the rebuilding of life itself. </div><div>More than 170 differently-abled individuals from all age groups benefited from the camp. </div><div> Trustee and Director Devendra Chaubisa presented the camp report and informed that the institution’s doctors and P&O team examined all patients and conducted digital measurements for 70 beneficiaries for 3D-printed Narayan modular artificial arms and legs, while 29 beneficiaries were measured for calipers. Around 31 differently-abled patients were selected for free corrective surgeries during the camp. </div><div> He further stated that the patients who underwent casting and digital scanning during the camp would receive specially designed modular Narayan limbs within the next one to two months at another fitting camp to be organized in Mumbai. These limbs are lightweight, durable, flexible, and suitable for long-term use, enabling beneficiaries to participate in education, employment, and daily life activities with greater confidence. </div><div>The institution arranged free meals, tea, and refreshments for all patients and their family members. A 40-member expert team from the institution rendered services during the camp, while Hari Prasad Laddha served as the camp coordinator. </div><div> It is noteworthy that Narayan Seva Sansthan has been working in the field of rehabilitation, treatment, and empowerment of differently-abled individuals since 1985. The institution’s founder Kailash Manav has been honored with the Padma Shri award, while President Prashant Agarwal received the President’s Award in 2023 for the empowerment of differently-abled individuals. So far, the institution has provided free artificial limbs to over 39,388 differently-abled individuals and free medical treatment to more than 452,000 patients.</div>
