Not just Air Conditioners—now, even mattresses help you stay cool

Hyderabad, May 2025: As temperatures soar this summer, Hyderabad residents are pulling out all the stops to stay cool—air conditioners, chilled beverages, and breezy outfits. But one crucial comfort zone often goes unnoticed: your bed.

Now, there’s a game-changer.

Decor World Select, Khajaguda’s newest premium furnishings destination, has launched the Serta Antarctic Mattress—hailed as India’s coolest mattress, designed specifically to offer summer sleep relief with 15x better cooling than traditional mattresses.

“If you’ve cooled your room and your drink, why not your mattress?” asks Ankit Goyal, a steel-industry professional-turned-furnishing expert with over a decade of experience in home interiors. “This mattress is engineered for tropical nights—so you fall asleep faster and stay cool longer.”

The Serta Antarctic is powered by the brand’s exclusive Cooltex™ System, a multi-layered cooling technology where each layer is designed to outperform the previous one in drawing heat away from the body. The result? All-night comfort, without overreliance on air conditioning.

With prices ranging from ₹2.78 lakh to ₹4 lakh, the Antarctic is a premium wellness investment—ideal for discerning customers who value sleep quality, luxury, and long-term health.

“The launch of the Serta range marks a new era in sleep innovation for Hyderabad,” said Mr. Uday Dubey, Sales Head, Serta India. “People spend a third of their lives on a mattress. It should work as hard as you do to support your health and energy.”

Ankit Goyal, known for introducing storytelling curtains and redefining lifestyle furnishings in Hyderabad, is now focused on ‘cool sleep solutions’. He adds, “Today’s mattresses are not just about softness or bounce—they’re about regulating temperature, improving posture, and supporting well-being.”

Why Good Sleep Matters:

• Well-rested individuals are 2x more productive and make 50% fewer mistakes at work.
• Good sleep regulates blood pressure, supports mental clarity, and reduces inflammation.
• Post-pandemic, people spend more time at home—and often work from bed—making mattress quality even more essential.

 As homes evolve into wellness sanctuaries, top-tier mattresses are joining luxury cars and designer kitchens as aspirational lifestyle choices, especially among millennials and working professionals.

Customers can now experience the Serta cooling difference in person. Decor World Select offers personalised sleep consultations in a premium showroom setting.

“Sleep is not a luxury—it’s a necessity,” says Mr. Dubey. “And the right mattress directly impacts your health, happiness, and performance.”

MBA and MLT Students Gain Industry Exposure at Orianaa Decor Pack Pvt. Ltd.

Delhi, May, 2025 – In a pioneering effort towards fostering experiential learning, ITM Vocational University’s Training and Placement Department, coordinated by TPO Manager Mr. Deerghaou Sharma, conducted two motivating industrial visits for the students of the MBA and Medical Laboratory Technology (MLT) courses successfully.

On 2nd May, 2025, 20 MBA students made a tour of Orianaa Decor Pack Pvt. Ltd., a prominent name in packing. The visit provided an all-round insight of core business practices such as Human Resources, Marketing, and Finance. A first-hand tour of the Production Department gave students firsthand knowledge of the industrial processes and workflows, strategies, and integration of functions from department to department.

Earlier, on 30th April 2025, 25 MLT students were conducted on a tour of BAPS Hospital and Grace Laboratory. This interactive session provided them with an exposure to specific units including Microbiology, Histopathology, and Biochemistry. The students also met with professionals in the medical field and were educated about contemporary diagnostic equipment, testing automation, and sophisticated laboratory equipment.

“These visits reflect ITM Vocational University’s commitment to aligning education with industry demands,” said Dr. Anil M. Bisen, Provost, ITM Vocational University. “We commend the Training and Placement Department for fostering such impactful experiences that prepare students for real-world challenges.”

Both visits were greeted with keen enthusiasm and have immensely helped in reinforcing the students’ knowledge of their respective domains, giving them the ability and confidence required to perform well in the competitive scenario of the present day.

India and Maldives Strengthen Healthcare Partnership Through Supply of Medicines by HLL Under PMBJP Scheme

Thiruvananthapuram: In a crucial association, India has committed its support to the Maldives by ensuring the supply of essential medicines through HLL Lifecare Limited – a Government of India enterprise under the Ministry of Health & Family Welfare – solidifying the growing healthcare collaboration between the two nations.

 In line with this initiative, the State Trading Organization Plc (STO) – a Government of Maldives enterprise responsible for the import and distribution of essential goods – has signed a strategic agreement with HLL under India’s Pradhan Mantri Bhartiya Janaushadhi Pariyojana (PMBJP), a government initiative aimed at providing affordable, high-quality medicines to the public. This partnership ensures a continuous and affordable supply of essential medicines to every corner of the Maldives.

 Over the past year, the Maldives’ health system has faced challenges with frequent stock-outs of vital pharmaceuticals, disrupting patient care and placing significant strain on Aasandha, the national health insurance scheme. Emergency imports restored 99 percent of the availability of essential medicines by April, but short-term solutions alone cannot ensure sustainable access. This agreement with HLL turns emergency relief into a permanent supply solution.

 HLL has proven to be a dependable partner during past crises. During the COVID-19 pandemic, HLL supplied critical medical supplies to the Maldives, demonstrating its capacity to quickly and efficiently manage large-scale exports. This history of collaboration gives STO confidence that HLL can meet both current and future needs.

 By linking with HLL’s extensive Janaushadhi network, which provides over 2,000 quality-assured generics and 300 surgical items, the Maldives taps into one of the world’s most efficient pharmaceutical supply chains.

Places Via Notes, a collection of poems, wins the prestigious 21st Century Emily Dickinson Award

Hyderabad, 12th May 2025- Mr. Viswaprasad Raju, an advertising professional and a travel sketch artist based in Hyderabad, has received the prestigious Emily Dickinson Award for his book Places Via Notes. The book was published by Bookleaf Publishing House.

The award celebrates American writer Emily Dickinson and challenges authors to write a book in 21 days. Selected writers have been awarded the limited edition trophy of the 21st Century Emily Dickinson Award.

The book is about places via notes. According to Mr. Viswaprasad Raju, “Places play, places pause, places rewind, places fast forward, and, most importantly, places don’t stop to inspire.” No two places are alike; befittingly, all the places featured in the book are written in a unique narrative style. You can call it a poem, a post, a note, or a dialogue; the idea was to look at each place from a new perspective, a new lens. While his first book, Via Pen & Ink, was about sketches from the 10 countries the writer has traveled to, over 10 years; his third book is about notes from 21 places put together in 21 days. From ‘a conversation between two poets’ at Galle Literary Festival in Sri Lanka to ‘tracking a tiger’ in Bandhavgarh and ‘two cities finding common ground’ in the Hyderabad & London chapter to ‘a date with a Banyan Tree’ in Pillalamarri, the places speak to the readers in a deeply engaging, lyrical, and lucid manner.

Quotes from the Industry leaders for the National Technology Day 2025

Prem Kumar Vislawath, CEO and Co-Founder, Marut Drones

 This National Technology Day we have witnessed how technology has empowered the evolving nature of modern warfare, placing drone technology at the forefront of defense strategy. Recent conflicts, including tensions along the India-Pakistan border, have highlighted how unmanned aerial systems are no longer optional—they are essential. Drones are playing a pivotal role in surveillance and frontline intelligence gathering, helping our forces respond faster and more effectively while minimizing risk to human life. The growth of India’s indigenous drone sector highlights the need for ‘Atmanirbharta’ and positions the country as a global hub for drone technology innovation. We remain committed to building future-ready technology that empowers lives, and support India’s vision of technological sovereignty.

Mr. Polamraju Nagender, CEO, Cinystore Technologies

 National Technology Day is a time to reflect on how deeply technology has become integrated into the foundation of India’s media and entertainment sector. The traditional boundaries between content creation, distribution, and consumption are rapidly dissolving, with technology serving as the central driver of this evolution. Today, storytelling is shaped as much by algorithms and analytics as by scripts and direction. From AI-assisted workflows to data-informed audience engagement, innovation is redefining every stage of the creative process. As an industry, we must focus on building accessible and scalable technological frameworks that not only empower emerging creators but also foster a more inclusive and sustainable content ecosystem. Our initiative KeepItShort is one such step, designed to support young filmmakers across India with the visibility, tools, and feedback needed to grow. The future of filmmaking will depend on how effectively we blend artistic vision with technological capability.”
