showtime

Created by Sumit Roy, Showrunner and directed by Mihir Desai and Directed by Archit Kumar, the screenplay by Sumit Roy, Mithun Gangopadhyay and Lara Chandni while the dialogues are written by Jehan Handa and Karan Shrikant Sharma.

Gaurav Banerjee, Head – Content, Disney+ Hotstar & HSM Entertainment Network, Disney Star said, “Delighted to collaborate once more with Dharmatic Entertainment and Karan Johar for a show that represents everything that’s quintessentially Bollywood. What’s more, the ensemble cast have come together beautifully to give life to what we can confidently say is here to entertain Bollywood fans with a no holds barred behind the curtains drama that is explosive and entertaining”

Karan Johar, Founder and Managing Director, Dharmatic Entertainment said, “Showtime is a show that showcases so many different shades of the industry. While there’s showbiz, glitz, glamour, drama it also touches upon the unspoken emotional rollercoaster that people go through behind the sets. The show is an attempt to bring audiences closer to the lives of people in the industry and to show what goes behind the making of a show/movie. It has a little bit of everything and there’s no better place than Disney+ Hotstar to tell such a story.”

Apoorva Mehta, CEO Dharma Productions & Dharmatic said, “At Dharmatic, we are always eager to tell stories that excite and intrigue the audiences, nudging them to think. Showtime is our first fictional series association with Disney+ Hotstar and there isn’t a better story than this to tell. The series will delve into the underbelly of Bollywood, shedding light on the studio-wars, power struggles and all that conspires behind the scenes, the making of films and more. We hope that audiences enjoy the show as much as we did while making it.”

Showrunner and Director Mihir Desai said, “Forget the velvet ropes and red carpets, “Showtime” rips back the curtain on the Bollywood you don’t often see. It’s a drama dripping with grit, glamour, and gossip that fuels the industry. This is the backstage world, where dreams are chased, deals are cut, and egos clash – all with a healthy dose of humor. And what a pleasure it was to work with Emraan Hashmi! Let’s face it, the man’s on a roll – we call it the Emraan-aissance! He leads a stellar cast, backed by the production powerhouse Dhamratic Entertainment and Sumit Roy’s insider knowledge. This is my second collaboration with Disney+Hotstar and I hope it’s a fun and entertaining watch for their wide range of subscribers.”

Creator Sumit Roy said, “Having been in the industry for years, we wanted to tell a story like Showtime that spills the tea about what goes on behind the scenes in Bollywood – gives you the masala behind our masala movies. The show is an insider account of the glitter, glamor, ego battles and power struggles in the world of showbiz. We wanted the sets to reflect the grandness of Bollywood and give audiences a larger than life experience. Every character will feel recognisable and has traits that are based on actual stars and filmmakers, many of the plot lines are culled from real life industry stories – viewers can enjoy playing guessing games to figure out who or what we’re referring to. The series doesn’t pull any punches, reveals many industry secrets and even explores the darker underbelly of the fraternity – showing you all that glitters in Bollywood isn’t gold. We hope viewers enjoy watching it!”

Emraan Hashmi added, “Having worked in the industry for over two decades, I have not come across a script like Showtime. To play the character of Raghu Khanna, who is always at the top of his game, was indeed challenging and creatively enriching. Showtime is a story that resonated with me at various levels. I have struggled my way up in the industry so I do understand the insider-outsider debate that is popular in this fraternity. At the same time, the Industry has space for everyone who is passionate and hardworking. Showtime will expose many realities of Bollywood but again, who thought that I would be a part of a series as a privileged heir to a legacy and what is more interesting than the fact that Karan Johar himself is making a show on nepotism with outsiders. I enjoyed collaborating with Disney+ Hotstar, Dharmatic Entertainment, Directors Mihir and Archit and hope audiences enjoy the world of Showtime.”

~Showtime will be releasing on 8th March, 2024, only on Disney+ Hotstar~

Money and Relationships – How to Navigate Finances as a Couple

Valentine’s Day, a time for lovebirds to express affection, is often celebrated with grand gestures and heartfelt moments. For newlyweds and couples still reveling in the honeymoon phase, navigating shared finances can seem like an afterthought amidst the bubble of fiery romance. However, the truth is that managing money together is an important aspect of any relationship that
can either strengthen the couple’s bond or become a source of tension.

VALENTINE DAY

While discussing finances may not elicit the same fluttering hearts as a candlelit dinner or a bouquet of roses, it is an essential conversation that lays the foundation for a stable and long-lasting partnership. This article will guide couples and help them navigate the intricacies of managing money together, fostering teamwork, and building a secure financial future.

1. Open communication about the current financial status
Honesty is the best policy, and it is true for every relationship. It is crucial for you and your partner to engage in open dialogue and have transparency regarding your current financial status. This means sharing details about debts, loans, credit history, spending habits, and your individual monetary goals. By doing so, you can ensure that there are no surprises down the road and that both parties are on the same page regarding financial matters. For instance, if one partner prioritises saving for the future while the other prefers to enjoy spending now, acknowledging these differences can help facilitate productive conversations and mutual understanding when it comes to managing joint finances.

2. Choose a budget method that works for you
Even if you believe your financial situation is stable, creating a budget together can help you both prepare for unexpected challenges and navigate tough times as a team. Plus, it can be an enjoyable and empowering experience when approached with the right mind-set. Begin by totalling the combined monthly income you and your partner earn and then document all your shared expenses,
including rent or mortgage, groceries, utility bills, transportation costs, and discretionary spending like entertainment and dining out. Now, consider allocating 80% of your joint income towards needs and wants, while committing 20% to savings that can be allocated towards emergency funds, which can act as a safety net for unexpected expenses.

3. Map out short-term, medium-term, and long-term goals
To effectively manage your finances as a couple, it is essential to establish clear goals that align with your shared aspirations and priorities. Short-term goals, achievable within the next three years, provide immediate satisfaction and include building an emergency savings fund, planning vacations, or covering back-to-school expenses. Medium-term goals, spanning three to five years, require more
substantial planning and saving, such as eliminating credit card debt or saving for a new car or home upgrades. Long-term goals extend beyond five years and include saving for children’s education, retirement planning, or homeownership. Estimating the cost and saving timeline for each goal allows you to break them down into manageable increments and track progress over time.

4. Track your progress
With changing income levels and increasing responsibilities, regularly monitoring your financial progress is essential for staying on course toward your goals as a couple. Conduct a comprehensive review of your expenses and spending at least once a year, treating it as if you are starting fresh with your budget. This annual check-in allows you to assess whether your financial plan is still aligned
with your evolving needs and circumstances. This proactive approach also ensures that you remain focused on managing your finances and can adapt to life’s transitions together.

The survey further underscores our commitment to providing insights for organizations to grow and thrive in this dynamic legal environment.”

The survey comprises insights from over 400 in-house counsel across India. It outlines the evolving roles and responsibilities of in-house counsel, and emerging risks, challenges, and priorities for organisations which will shape India’s legal landscape.

Key highlights:

Confronting industry-led legal challenges: Amidst rising global volatility and a fluctuating regulatory regime, businesses operating in India are faced with intricate legal challenges. 65% of the respondents identified industry- specific regulations as the primary challenge for in-house legal teams.

Organisations and their in-house counsel in healthcare can anticipate a slew of reforms due to a surge in demand from global and domestic stakeholders. India’s fintech industry has also recently garnered regulatory attention, with the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) introducing several regulations related to digital lending, payments, and Central Bank Digital Currency. In-house counsel are also charting the course for the renewable energy sector, given the government’s formulation of various regulations, policies, and guidelines to regulate the sector.

Data privacy regulations: As India enters a new era of digital regulation with the Digital Personal Data Protection Act 2023 and the upcoming Digital India Act, the onus on organisations and their legal teams to elevate data privacy standards, mitigate liabilities, and comply with evolving regulations has increased significantly. The survey highlights that the majority of the respondents are responsible for managing their organisation data privacy and protection, and cybersecurity functions. 44% of respondents identified data privacy and protection laws as one of the key legal concerns, while 65.5% have data privacy, protection, and cybersecurity within the ambit of in-house legal teams. Additionally, 54% foresee the need for external legal support on data privacy laws in the next 12 months.

Widening ambit of in-house legal teams: Legal teams have an expanded role and focus, with 77.9% respondents prioritising compliance, 65.5% addressing data privacy and protection, cybersecurity, 61% focusing on governance and ethics, and 29.2% exploring environmental, social and governance (ESG) and corporate social responsibility (CSR).

Uptick in litigation, and mergers and acquisitions (M&A) transactions: The evolving legal landscape has witnessed an increase in litigation and M&A activities, prompting 65.5% of respondents to seek external legal expertise for areas such as compliance, tax laws, and reputational risk.

Rising white collar crime concerns: Post-COVID-19, there has been an uptake in the number of internal investigations and other regulatory and white-collar crime issues. In line with this, 77.9% respondents identified overseeing compliance and 61% highlighted governance and ethics among their key responsibilities. Most In-house counsel identified that their key roles include monitoring ethical conduct, ensuring regulatory compliance, and risk management and planning.

Enhanced role of external legal advisors: External legal advisors play a pivotal role for businesses. According to the survey, 65.5% of respondents sought their expertise in litigation and dispute resolution, 64.6% in assisting on significant transactions including M&A, and 54% in tackling new data privacy and protection rules.

In-house counsel can consider four critical success factors as they strive to become future ready. The first is adapting to the evolving regulatory landscape and second is leveraging technology, including generative artificial intelligence (Gen AI) to enhance efficiency and navigate complexity. The third key area is enhancing compliance assessments, with heightened attention on net-zero goals and increased ESG compliance. Lastly, fostering strategic partnerships with external legal counsel for specialized guidance is crucial. This multifaceted approach will position in-house counsel to tide over legal challenges and thrive in a transforming business landscape.

Zell Education Survey: Financial Analyst Emerges as Most Coveted Role

February 2024: Zell Education, India’s leading finance and accounts Ed-tech platform, has conducted a comprehensive survey to understand the preferences, motivations, and challenges faced by individuals seeking careers in finance and accounting. The survey, encompassing college students, recent graduates, and working professionals, sheds light on key trends shaping the finance education landscape.

The survey reveals that 68.57% of respondents are driven by their inherent interest in the financial field, while 56.19% are motivated by the earning potential it offers. Additionally, 47.61% cite opportunities for advancements as a significant motivator, highlighting the diverse factors influencing career choices in finance.

Financial Analyst emerges as the most sought-after role, capturing the interest of 58.09% of respondents. Following closely are Accountant (49.52%) and Investment Bankers (38.09%), indicating a strong inclination towards analytical and financial management roles.

A notable insight from the survey is the significant portion of college students (65.90%) who have not pursued any finance-related courses or certifications. This underscores the existence of knowledge gaps and the need for targeted educational initiatives to bridge them.

Challenges in networking (46.66%), lack of relevant education or training (40.95%), and limited job opportunities (24.76%) are identified as the top hurdles faced by individuals pursuing careers in finance. Addressing these challenges is crucial for facilitating a smoother transition into the industry.

The survey highlights a preference for online courses and webinars among 42.85% of respondents, while 40.95% still favor in-person classes or workshops. This indicates the importance of offering a diverse range of educational resources to cater to varied learning preferences.

Mr. Pratham Barot, Co-Founder & CEO of Zell Education, “Our survey findings underscore the need for targeted education initiatives. It’s surprising to see that a significant percentage of students aren’t still aware of the finance courses and their impact indicating a strong knowledge gap. This is closely followed by 46.6% of students citing networking as a challenge while pursuing their career in Accounts or Finance. All such findings provide insights into why students are not actively pursuing finance knowledge thereby acting as a guidepost for education providers to ensure that programs are tailored to address specific barriers”

Based on the survey results, Zell Education proposes several actionable points for the industry such as developing programs for specific roles like Financial Analyst and addressing industry needs and knowledge gaps. Facilitate mentorship programs and industry events to overcome networking challenges for students and recent graduates. Acknowledge diverse learning preferences by offering both online and in-person resources for a well-rounded educational experience. Emphasize earning potential and offer practical solutions for common challenges like networking difficulties and limited job opportunities.

Dr.Jeslin.G.N (PT),  Lecturer at Saveetha College of Physiotherapy, Chennai, MPT (Urology and Obstetrics), (PhD) Department of Urology and Obstetrics,
Saveetha College of Physiotherapy, SIMATS, Chennai

Telemedicine has revolutionized the healthcare industry, particularly in treating complex diseases like Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS). Despite the disease’s uncurable nature, effective management techniques can improve quality of life. Tele-delivered training offers a convenient method for people to control their symptoms from the comfort of their homes, enhancing their quality of life.

 Convenience and Accessibility

 Programs for tele-delivered training are exceptionally practical and readily available, bypassing both location as well as time limitations. There is no longer a requirement for participants to frequently make trips in person to healthcare institutions since they may get professional assistance and assets remotely. This ease of use guarantees that people receive regular assistance and education wherever they are, which is especially helpful for those with busy schedules or little availability of specialized care.

 Individualized Method

 The capacity of tele-delivered training to offer individualized support catered to each participant’s particular needs is one of its main advantages. Medical professionals can evaluate each patient’s symptoms, lifestyle, and needs via collaborative meetings and online discussions in order to create customized therapy regimens. Since they feel personally involved in handling their PCOS, participants are more engaged and stick to the treatment thanks to this customized approach.

 Knowledge and Self-determination

 Tele-delivered learning programs focus on independence and self-management, providing individuals with the necessary information and skills to manage PCOS symptoms. These classes cover stress management, medication management, nutrition, and exercise regimens, promoting informed decision-making and self- management, enhancing overall wellness and achieving better achievements.

 Community Assistance

 Remote instruction fosters camaraderie among individuals facing similar challenges, promoting interaction and support through social media networks, online forums, and virtual assistance circles. This empathy can reduce feelings of isolation and provide emotional support during PCOS management.

 Conclusion

 Tele-delivered training is a revolutionary approach to PCOS treatment, offering individualized assistance, community involvement, and availability. As technology advances, telemedicine will become increasingly important, enhancing healthcare delivery and improving PCOS patients’ lives.
