World Music Day:One Day Kashmiri Music Will Match Punjabi Industry says Singer Waqar Khan
Srinagar, June 21: On the occasion of World Music Day, popular Kashmiri singer Waqar Khan expressed the growing recognition of Kashmiri music and language on national platforms, expressing optimism about the future of the valleys music industry. Speaking about the evolving music landscape, Waqar said that Kashmiri language and songs have increasingly found space in Bollywood in recent years, contributing to efforts aimed at preserving and promoting the regions rich cultural heritage. He pointed to the success of Kashmiri singer Faheem Abdullah in Bollywood as a positive sign for the industry. Work is being done to keep the Kashmiri language alive and restore its prominence. Artists like Faheem Abdullah are making a mark in Bollywood, which is encouraging for all of us. We are hopeful that one day the Kashmiri music industry will flourish in the same way as the Punjabi music industry, he told Rising Kashmir. Recalling his musical journey, Waqar said his passion for singing began during his school days when teachers recognized his talent. What started as appreciation from my teachers gradually became a hobby, then a passion, and eventually a profession, he said. Addressing comparisons with legendary Pakistani singer Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, Waqar humbly rejected the title often given to him by admirers. I can never compare myself to Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan. He was a legend and no one can match his stature. Perhaps people call me Junior NFAK because I have recomposed some of his songs. Like millions of others, I have followed and admired him throughout my life, he said. He added that Nusrats timeless music continues to inspire generations across the world. His work was exceptional, which is why people still love and listen to him. I am focused on improving myself every day and growing as an artist, he said. Waqar also spoke about the difficult decision of leaving his government job to pursue a full-time career in music. It was a tough decision, but I believed in my passion and wanted to dedicate myself completely to music, he said. Discussing the challenges faced by independent artists, Waqar noted that social media platforms have transformed the music industry and opened new opportunities for emerging singers. In the past, artists had to travel to Mumbai and meet producers and directors to get a chance. Today, platforms like YouTube and other social media channels allow artists to showcase their work to audiences across the globe. However, one must also understand how to effectively promote content online, he said. While acknowledging the growing popularity of Kashmiri music, Waqar said the valley still lacks large-scale musical events. Very few concerts are organised here, while private events are more common. I hope we will see more concerts and music festivals in the coming years, said Waqar who hails from Kupwara's Karnah tehsil. The singer also stressed the need to identify and promote talented writers and literary figures in Kashmir, saying the region possesses immense creative potential that deserves wider recognition. Apart from music, Waqar has also entered politics and is associated with the National Conference. Explaining his decision, he said his primary objective is to serve people and address local issues. I joined politics because I wanted to help the people of my area. I believe the party stands with the people of Kashmir and works for their welfare, he said. Commenting on Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah, Waqar said the Chief Minister is making sincere efforts to address public concerns. He is working hard to resolve the issues faced by the people to the best of his ability, he said. Sharing his political aspirations, Waqar said he hopes to act as a bridge between the people and the administration. My goal is always to help people and connect them with those who can solve their problems, he said. Describing himself in simple terms, Waqar concluded: I am a common man and a singer.

Pressure Brings Out The Best In Me, Says Ujjain Falcons All-rounder Madhav Tiwari
Madhya Pradesh League: Ujjain Falcons seam-bowling all-rounder Madhav Tiwari says it is in the tightest moments of a game that his game truly comes alive, while crediting a single-minded focus on winning for the team rather than personal milestones for his consistent performances in the Madhya Pradesh League (MPL) T20 Scindia Cup 2026. Reflecting on his all-round show in the side beating Indore Pink Panthers, where he picked 3-22 and hit a valuable 31 off 34 balls, Tiwari put it down to a competitive streak in him that refuses to be satisfied. If I want to speak personally, I would have taken one more wicket. Every cricketer has a little bit of greed, as we want to do as well as they can. If I had finished in the batting and remained not out, then I would have been a little more satisfied, obviously. But at the end, the team won, and it's very nice, he said in an exclusive conversation with IANS on Saturday. Asked what allows him to thrive when games are on a knife-edge, Tiwari stated it boils down to keeping the team's result above everything else. I don't know when the situation is tough or challenging. Either my brain works very well there, or I don't know much, because when I play cricket, I have only one priority - how to get my team a win? So the pressure situation obviously triggers me a lot like how can I get my team out of here? I need that thing very badly, and I think that in those particular pressure situations, maybe my brain works well. In all, I would like to say that the brain works well. Skills, obviously, like I've been playing cricket for like 8-9 years now. So the skills part is going well and will continue to improve. But it's all mental when you are in a pressure situation and how badly you want to perform for your team, he said. Tiwari, who hails from Mauganj in Madhya Pradesh's Rewa district and has been part of the Delhi Capitals set-up in the IPL for the last two seasons, said the experience of being in the franchise and sharing the dressing room with the likes of Axar Patel, KL Rahul, Tristan Stubbs, Mitchell Starc, and David Miller has hugely influenced his approach towards the game. In IPL 2026, Tiwari had a breakthrough time by taking out Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, Shubham Dubey, Priyansh Arya, and Cooper Connolly with his seam bowling skills and even hit a valuable cameo of 18 not out off eight balls to give DC a win over Punjab Kings in Dharamshala, thus earning him the Player of the Match award. It has been very, very helpful. I think I would like to say that as a cricketer, I focus on improving every year, and whether I am better this year than last year. When I came here from this IPL, I learnt a lot from my senior players. I had long conversations with them and with the coaches who have a lot of experience. I learnt a lot from them, and it was like, okay, I didn't get a lot of opportunities there, but I will try to implement that in MPL. I will try to become more consistent. So those things helped me a lot, he said. On juggling both bowling and batting responsibilities, with his 'I am a 100% batter and 100% bowler' comment from IPL 2026 still fresh in the memory, Tiwari admitted the responsibilities as an all-rounder are demanding, but it gives him more than one way to influence a matchs outcome. Managing it happens because there is a lot of hard work. But there are a lot of results and benefits. Obviously, I also want to say that I want to contribute 100 percent in my fielding. So it happens that there is a lot of hard work, but sometimes you don't have a good day of batting. But you can make a comeback and make your team win with your bowling. If you don't have a day in bowling, you can make your team win with your batting. So I think it's more or less just an excuse to make your team win at the end of the day, he said. The all-rounder also pointed to his fitness regimen as central to sustaining his game across formats and roles. Obviously, it is helping a lot. As an all-rounder, your life revolves around working on your skills, and then you just focus on how to do recovery. If you look at it, your whole day is spent on it. You have to do well, you have to recover, and you have to mentally be less affected. You don't have to think too much. So I think the more you stay mentally free, and the more you know what to do in a particular session, and then you work on those things, so I think it goes hand in hand, he said. Tiwari, who earned his Delhi Capitals contract on the back of his MPL performances, recalled how seriously he took the league from the very start. I think there is a lot of happiness. I had a gut feeling when I played at the MPL for the first time and realised how important this platform is. I took it very seriously. I was waiting for a call from the franchise for the trials. Then the Delhi Capitals called me for the trials. On going there, it was very intimidating to see everyone. Obviously, they must have called all the best players in India for the trials. You have to be selected and go through them. In the beginning, it felt like a few hours or minutes. It was just that now that I have come here, I have to be selected. This was in my mind, and luckily, I was selected in my first year and was very fortunate for it, he said. With Ujjain Falcons facing long odds of a play-offs berth, Tiwari signed off by saying the focus has shifted to finishing the season strongly. Our last match is still left to play. We were not lucky enough and missed crucial moments in some matches, and lost games. It is very tough for us to get qualified. You have to be selected and go through them. In the beginning, it felt like a few hours or minutes. It was just that now that I have come here, I have to be selected. This was in my mind, and luckily, I was selected in my first year and was very fortunate for it, he said. Also Read: Live Cricket Score --IANS Article Source: IANS

Nikhil Kamath Brings Together Pharma Veterans to Decode India's Evolving Healthcare Landscape
In the latest episode of WTF, entrepreneur and investor Nikhil Kamath sits down with two of India's most influential pharmaceutical leaders, Rajeev Juneja, Co-Founder and Managing Director of Mankind Pharma, and GV Prasad, Co-Chairman and CEO of Dr. Reddy's Laboratories, for a candid conversation on India's pharmaceutical growth story, the future of innovation-led healthcare, manufacturing competitiveness, and the opportunities shaping the sector's next chapter. Nikhil Kamath in conversation with Rajeev Juneja, Co-Founder and Managing Director of Mankind Pharma, and GV Prasad, Co-Chairman and CEO of Dr. Reddy's Laboratories Together, Juneja and Prasad bring more than six decades of experience building businesses that have helped shape India's position as the pharmacy of the world. Through personal stories and industry insights, they discuss how medicines are discovered, manufactured and commercialized, why India remains a global leader in generic drugs, and what it will take for the country to emerge as a stronger innovation-driven pharmaceutical hub. Reflecting on Mankind Pharma's journey, Rajeev Juneja shares how the company was built after its founding in 1995 with just Rs. 69,000 in capital and a strategy focused on markets often overlooked by larger players. While established pharmaceutical companies concentrated on metros and large hospitals, Mankind expanded its presence across smaller markets in Western Uttar Pradesh, Haryana and Punjab, prioritizing depth of distribution over breadth. The company differentiated itself by pricing products 40 to 60 percent below competitors, making medicines more accessible to consumers. Today, Mankind Pharma is India's fourth-largest pharmaceutical company with revenues exceeding Rs. 40,000 crore. GV Prasad reflects on joining Dr. Reddy's Laboratories in 1990, when the company's total group revenue was less than Rs. 100 crore, and helping build it into a nearly USD 3 billion global business spanning generics, biosimilars and proprietary drug discovery. He explains the fundamental differences between generics, biologics and innovative medicines, while highlighting both India's strengths and limitations within the global pharmaceutical value chain. A key theme of the discussion is India's next growth frontier. While India has established itself as the world's leading supplier of affordable generic medicines, Prasad notes that significantly greater value is created through innovation and the discovery of new therapies. The conversation explores emerging treatment areas such as GLP-1 drugs, the economics of drug development, and the investments required to build a globally competitive innovation ecosystem. The episode also examines India's position relative to China. Juneja and Prasad discuss China's evolution from a low-cost manufacturing destination to a global force in pharmaceutical innovation, noting that 29 percent of all new cancer drugs are now originating from Chinese companies. The discussion highlights the importance of long-term capital, scientific talent, research infrastructure and institutional support in driving innovation-led growth. Addressing the ongoing conversation around Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (APIs), the two leaders offer perspectives on manufacturing resilience and supply chain competitiveness. Prasad argues that India has not lost its ability to manufacture APIs but rather faced economic challenges that shifted production elsewhere, while Juneja discusses how Indian companies are increasingly partnering with and licensing molecules from global innovators to bring advanced therapies to patients more quickly. Beyond industry trends, the episode provides valuable insights for young professionals considering careers in pharmaceuticals. Drawing on their own experiences — from Juneja's early years as a medical representative to Prasad's journey of helping build a global pharmaceutical enterprise — both leaders emphasize the breadth of opportunities available across science, research, manufacturing, sales, entrepreneurship and healthcare innovation. Speaking on the episode, Rajeev Juneja, said, "What you hate becomes your biggest lesson. Going to that pharmacy, sweeping, buying from the wholesale market, I hated it. But that is where I learned how the market really works." GV Prasad added, "India is the generic pharmacy of the world. That's a good foundation. But the next frontier is finding new drugs, and I think the next ten years will be extremely interesting for Indian pharma." Commenting on the conversation, Nikhil Kamath, said, "This conversation made clear something I hadn't quite understood before, that by volume, India is the pharmacy of the world, but by revenue, we're barely a rounding error. The real question, and these two men have spent their careers answering it, is how that changes." The episode is available now on YouTube. About WTF with Nikhil Kamath WTF is a long-form conversation series hosted by entrepreneur and investor Nikhil Kamath. Each episode brings together builders, thinkers, and industry leaders for extended, unscripted conversations on business, ideas, and the texture of how things actually get done. Past guests include Elon Musk, Bill Gates, Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Rishi Sunak, and Akshata Murty.
