Protinex India has launched a new integrated campaign Strength hai toh simple hai , a celebration of everyday strength that speaks directly to the millennial Indian adult. The campaign is rooted in an insight that is simple, sharp, and deeply felt: from 30s onwards, the body quietly begins to lose muscle strength, and most of us don't get enough protein to keep up. The will to show up for work, for family, for life, never wavers. But when the body can't match it, even the simplest things begin to feel harder than they should. Protinex India launches its new integrated campaign, "Strength Hai Toh Simple Hai," highlighting the importance of everyday muscle strength and protein nutrition The brand film brings this truth to life with warmth and gentle humour. A mother comes home after a long day her young son spots her from across the room, lights up, and runs straight into her arms. She reaches down to lift him. And in that split second, something that should feel effortless, doesn't. The film ends with a question that lands with quiet sharpness Chhota kaam lage bhaari? Kahin muscle strength kam toh nahi ho rahi? (Small tasks feel heavy? Could your muscle strength be slipping?). Before resolving into the ease and joy that everyday strength makes possible. youtu.be/OwG9oUmmvio?si=FRkv27gGEHao-QQI The campaign is anchored in Protinex's core nutritional proposition: delivering 40% of the recommended daily protein intake per serving , + 25 Vital Nutrients for strong muscle health. A healthy adult requires 1.0 - 1.2g of protein per kg of body weight daily 1 (ref: Harris S, DePalma J, Barkoukis H. Protein and Aging: Practicalities and Practice. Nutrients. 2025;17(15):2461. doi:10.3390/nu17152461) and Protinex is designed to meaningfully bridge that gap as part of a balanced diet and healthy lifestyle. The campaign goes live across a fully integrated media ecosystem, reaching 53 million consumers pan-India . The brand film has been produced in Hindi, Bengali, Telugu, Marathi, Odia, Tamil, Kannada, and English, and will air across 39 television channels spanning GECs, regional GECs, and movie channels with approximately 182 spots airing every day. On digital, the campaign activates across YouTube, Meta, JioHotstar OTT, Connected TV, and Mediakart. The brand is also exploring innovative consumer engagement initiatives that extend the campaign's core thought into real-world experiences and will be announced soon. Talking about the concept, Ms. Priyanka Verma, Marketing Director Danone India said: Strength is often associated with extraordinary feats. But its most important role is far more personal. It's what closes the gap between what you want to do and what your body lets you do. Through 'Strength Hai Toh Simple Hai,' we wanted to speak about that quiet, everyday experience, the moment something simple feels heavier than it should. Because when your body matches your will, life doesn't just feel easier. It feels like you again."

As film crews return, Kashmir finds its spotlight again
Srinagar, July 9: As peace and normalcy steadily return to Kashmir in the aftermath of the Pahalgam terror attack, the valley is once again echoing with the sounds of lights, camera, action, with film shootings resuming after months of uncertainty, bringing fresh optimism to the tourism and entertainment sectors. The return of film crews is being seen as a significant confidence-building measure, reflecting the revival of Kashmirs image as one of the countrys most sought-after filming destinations. Industry stakeholders and tourism officials believe the resumption of shoots will not only revive cinematic tourism but also generate employment for hundreds of local artists, technicians, transport operators and hospitality workers. The first major production to return to Kashmir after the April attack is a Telugu-language comedy directed by filmmaker Vimal Krishna, whose crew shot in Pahalgam and Srinagar in November last year. The production marks the first film shoot in the valley after the attack that had forced several production houses to postpone or review their Kashmir schedules. Speaking during the shoot, director Vimal Krishna said Kashmir had exceeded the teams expectations in terms of security and hospitality. I can confidently say Kashmir is 100 percent safe. We have felt completely secure throughout our stay. The local people have welcomed us like family, and the administration and security agencies have extended full support. I hope many more filmmakers and tourists return to the valley, he said. He said the team had visited Kashmir for a recce before finalising the schedule and found the situation conducive for filming. We were searching for beautiful locations, and Kashmir remains unmatched. Our experience has been extremely positive, and we will continue shooting in Srinagar after completing the Pahalgam schedule, he added. Officials associated with the tourism sector said the return of film units is a major morale booster after months of cancellations that followed the terror attack. Film shootings have always served as the biggest ambassadors for Kashmir tourism. Every film shot here inspires thousands of people to visit these locations. The return of filmmakers sends a strong message that confidence is returning, a senior tourism official said. Local line producers said they have started receiving fresh inquiries from several production houses in Mumbai, Hyderabad and Chennai for shoots scheduled later this year. The attack had created uncertainty, and many projects were put on hold. But with the successful completion of the ongoing shoot, filmmakers have regained confidence. We expect several more crews to arrive in the coming months, Rahi Khan, a local line producer told Rising Kashmir. The valley has a long association with Indian cinema. From classics such as Kashmir Ki Kali, Jab Jab Phool Khile and Kabhi Kabhie to recent productions including Rockstar, Haider, Fitoor, Laila Majnu, Bajrangi Bhaijaan, Dunki, Kashmir has remained one of the countrys most picturesque filming destinations. Recent years have also witnessed the shooting of projects such as Alpha and several south Indian films, reaffirming the valleys growing appeal across different film industries. In January this year, Bollywood actor Kartik Aaryan, along with director Kabir Khan, shot portions of an upcoming sports drama in Srinagar and Pahalgam. In May, Kartik Aaryan returned to the valley with actor Sreeleela to film an untitled romantic drama directed by Anurag Basu, with several sequences shot across Srinagar. The popular television series Seher Hone Ko Hai, currently airing on Colours TV, has also drawn attention for its breathtaking Kashmir backdrop. Several scenes of the show were filmed in Srinagar last week, showcasing the valleys scenic beauty to audiences across the country. On Wednesday, Bollywood actor Huma Qureshi accompanied by her brother and actor Saqib Saleem visited INOX Srinagar to promote their recently released film Baby Do Die Do, further highlighting the growing engagement of the Hindi film industry with Kashmir. Industry experts believe the revival of film tourism carries economic significance beyond cinema, benefiting hotels, houseboats, transporters, guides, local artisans and small businesses across the valley.

Allianz Technology India , the Global Capability Centers (GCCs) of Allianz Group in India, celebrated the landmark achievement as their Plastic Waste-Free Rivers Project a Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiative, crossed the milestone of recovering over 1,000 tons of plastic waste from Thiruvananthapuram's rivers and waterways over four years, preventing it from reaching the Arabian Sea. This is equivalent to removing 50 million plastic bottles from the city's waterbodies if kept end-to-end, the bottles would stretch to 12,000 km which exceeds the coastline of India. The milestone was formally announced at an event held in Thiruvananthapuram, graced by an august gathering of dignitaries such as P.K. Kunhalikutty, Minister for Industries, IT, AI and Startups, Adv. Mons Joseph, Minister for Water Resources, K M Shaji, Minister for Local Self Government, Adv. V V Rajesh, Mayor of the Corporation of Trivandrum, V Muraleedharan, Member of the Kerala Legislative Assembly (Kazhakoottam constituency), Jison John, MD & CEO, Allianz Services India, Jayant Tulsiani, Branch Head India, Allianz Technology SE. During the 1000-Ton recovery milestone announcement of Allianzs CSR initiative Plastic Waste-Free Rivers Project Thiruvananthapuram Since its launch in 2022, This four-year journey has been entirely funded by Allianz Services India and Allianz Technology India, who have together invested more than INR 5 crores (EUR 500,000) from CSR funds in the project. " Global Capability Centres (GCCs) in Kerala are not merely engines of economic growth they are responsible corporate citizens who invest in the communities and ecosystems that sustain them. This milestone also reinforces a powerful message to global investors: Kerala's industrial growth is inseparable from its commitment to environmental excellence, said P K Kunhalikutty, Minister for Industries, IT, AI and Startups . What makes the Plastic Waste-Free Rivers Project particularly commendable is its sustained, systematic approach, said Adv. Mons Joseph, Minister for Water Resources . I urge corporates, local bodies, and citizens alike to draw inspiration from this model , he added. I call upon our Panchayats, Municipalities, and the Corporation of Thiruvananthapuram to draw inspiration from this model and deepen their collaboration with initiatives of this nature, said K.M Shaji, Minister for Local Self Government . Reaching the 1,000 ton milestone is incredibly meaningful for Allianz every piece of plastic removed from rivers is one less harming the ocean. It reflects a clear conviction: to protect biodiversity and ocean health, we must act upstream. This is about more than cleanup its about lasting change: creating jobs, raising awareness, and transforming how communities manage waste. But we are only at the beginning. Preventing plastic pollution at scale requires deeper collaboration, systemic solutions and long-term commitment because caring for tomorrow means protecting the ecosystems that sustain life today , said Barbara Karuth-Zelle, Member of the Board of Management (Responsible for Allianz Services and Allianz Technology) and Group COO, Allianz SE . The Plastic Waste-Free Rivers Project deploys low-cost floating barriers called TrashBooms to intercept plastic waste in rivers and urban waterways. Today, 15 TrashBoom systems operate across critical sites including Thampanoor thodu, Ulloor thodu, Pattom thodu, Thekkinakara canal, Amayizhanchan thodu, Karamana river, Killi river, Kariyil thodu, and Thettiyar canal collecting and removing plastic waste daily. Allianz Services India and Allianz Technology India run this initiative in association with NGO partners Thanal Trust and Sustera Foundation, deploying technology from Plastic Fischer, Germany. The project provides local employment and is supported by three Material Recovery Facilities (MRFs) at Injakkal, Venpalavattom and Vallakadavu, managed by Plastic Fischer's team of 23 professionals responsible for recovery, transportation, segregation and shipping. Collected non-recyclable plastic is transported to the Thiruvananthapuram MRFs and subsequently co-processed at the plants of Dalmia Cement (Bharat) Limited in Tamil Nadu, while recyclable plastic is repurposed locally, including into TrashBins now installed at Veli Beach. Globally, nine million tons of plastic reach the oceans every year. In Thiruvananthapuram, 79% of debris on major water banks is plastic, and the Karamana and Killi rivers have the highest microplastic densities in the region. Without intervention, plastic is projected to outweigh fish in the world's oceans by 2050 a stark reality that makes this milestone all the more significant. In 2025, Allianz Services India and Allianz Technology India launched grassroots-level programs in Puthenthope, Kadinamkulam and Veli, in association with NGO partners Thanal Trust and Sustera Foundation, marking a strategic shift towards preventive waste management by extending impact from interception to behaviour change and early intervention. The initiative encourages visitors, local merchants, and residents to dispose of waste responsibly. Employees regularly collaborate with NGO partners to undertake beach cleanup drives and awareness campaigns, while close collaboration with the Corporation of Thiruvananthapuram and the Government of Kerala (Departments of Local Self Government and Water Resources) ensures the initiative complements local governance efforts. This achievement demonstrates that Thiruvananthapuram-based GCCs are driving environmental initiatives with measurable outcomes through corporate citizenship. The 15 sites span critical urban waterways surrounding Technopark and key industrial zones, and by removing massive plastic blockages, this industry-led initiative helps local authorities mitigate urban flood risks, protecting tech infrastructure and enhancing the liveability index that attracts global talent to the city. The project has also earned endorsement from the UN Ocean Decade. What began in Thiruvananthapuram is now being replicated by others in Mangaluru, Bengaluru, Mumbai, Kanpur, and Varanasi demonstrating that structured, long-term action backed by strong partnerships can deliver real, scalable impact.

Mumbai's rain has entered uncharted territory. The data tells a worrying story
Mumbai experienced unprecedented rainfall, exceeding normal monthly totals in just one week. This extreme weather reflects climate change altering rainfall patterns across India.

Adapting to these changing monsoons requires smarter planning and natural buffer protection.

Melbourne Cricket Ground: Cricket's most celebrated venue is set to witness a long-awaited milestone when Lord's stages its first-ever women's Test beginning Friday, with England and India meeting in a one-off contest that carries significance far beyond the result. More than 140 years after the ground hosted its inaugural men's Test, the women's game finally arrives at the Home of Cricket, a development that has been widely viewed as another important step in the sport's push towards greater equality. The occasion has already generated unprecedented interest, with over 30,000 tickets sold across the four days, the highest attendance ever recorded for a women's Test in the United Kingdom. The fixture also comes less than three years after an independent review into equity in English cricket criticised the absence of women's Test cricket at Lord's, making this week's match symbolic as well as competitive. For both sides, however, sentiment will quickly give way to cricketing priorities. England return to the longest format seeking to halt an underwhelming run that has yielded only one Test victory in the past decade. Their last appearance ended in a comprehensive defeat to Australia at the Melbourne Cricket Ground earlier this year, while memories of falling short in the T20 World Cup final on home soil continue to linger. Captain Nat Sciver-Brunt will hope the switch to red-ball cricket offers an opportunity to reset a side that has shown flashes of brilliance but struggled for consistency on the biggest occasions. India arrive with similar motivation after their own disappointing T20 World Cup campaign ended at the group stage. Although Harmanpreet Kaur's side has played only sparingly in the format over recent years, they have produced impressive performances whenever opportunities have arisen. A commanding victory over South Africa in Chennai in 2024 reaffirmed India's strength in red-ball cricket before Australia halted their unbeaten run earlier this year in a pink-ball Test at Perth. History, meanwhile, offers India plenty of encouragement. The visitors remain unbeaten in women's Tests played in England, having avoided defeat in all nine previous matches on English soil. Their overall record against England is equally impressive, with India losing just one of 15 Tests between the two nations while recording three victories and drawing the remaining contests. One of those victories remains among the defining moments in India's women's cricket journey. Their triumph at Wormsley in 2014, achieved with a squad featuring eight Test debutants, ended an eight-year absence from the format and announced the arrival of a new generation led by players such as Smriti Mandhana and Harmanpreet Kaur. Nearly a decade later, India underlined their growing authority with a crushing 347-run win over England in Navi Mumbai. The latest chapter promises another fascinating tactical contest. England have opted for a youthful squad, handing maiden Test call-ups to Alice Capsey, Eleanor Threlkeld, Grace Potts, Mady Villiers and teenage left-arm spinner Tilly Corteen-Coleman. Their selection reflects an attempt to build depth while managing workloads, with Charlie Dean rested after an extended white-ball schedule. India, too, have injected fresh faces into the squad. Harleen Deol, left-arm spinner N Shree Charani and fast bowler Nandani Sharma are all in line for potential Test debuts, while seam-bowling all-rounder Sayali Satghare offers valuable balance after making her international breakthrough earlier this year. Selection decisions could prove decisive once conditions are assessed on the opening morning. England possess genuine pace options in Lauren Filer and Issy Wong, both capable of exploiting any assistance available from the Lord's surface. Their experienced core, featuring Tammy Beaumont, Heather Knight, Maia Bouchier and world-class spinner Sophie Ecclestone, gives the hosts a settled spine despite the influx of newcomers. India's preparations have been disrupted by the loss of opener Pratika Rawal, who suffered a knee injury during an India A fixture in Taunton. Priya Punia has been drafted into the squad, while the race for places in the batting order remains open with Shafali Verma, Jemimah Rodrigues, Yastika Bhatia and Harleen Deol all competing for starting spots. The composition of India's bowling attack is another area of intrigue. Head coach Amol Muzumdar must determine the ideal combination from Renuka Singh, Kranti Gaud and Nandani Sharma, with Satghare's ability to contribute in both disciplines strengthening her case for inclusion. On paper, England enter the contest with the advantage of familiar conditions and a squad packed with experienced performers. India, however, have repeatedly demonstrated their ability to compete in overseas Tests and carry the confidence of an outstanding record against England in the format. As Lord's finally opens its gates to women's Test cricket, the match represents far more than a place in the result books. It offers two ambitious teams the chance to shape another landmark in the evolution of the women's game while adding a new chapter to one of cricket's oldest rivalries.
