Podcasts about Dilip

Dr. Dilip Joseph traveled to Afghanistan to serve others as a medical doctor. On December 5, 2012, everything changed when armed men surrounded his vehicle and kidnapped him.For four days, Dilip was held captive by the Taliban, uncertain whether he would ever see his family again. In the middle of fear, exhaustion, and the possibility of death, he began asking a different question: What is God doing here?That question changed the way he saw his captors, his circumstances, and his own faith.Then, on the fifth day, SEAL Team Six launched a daring rescue mission. Navy SEAL Nicholas Checque gave his life during the operation that brought Dilip home.In this powerful conversation, Dilip shares what happened during his captivity, the unexpected relationship he developed with one of his captors, the weight of knowing someone sacrificed his life to save him, and what the experience taught him about following Jesus when obedience is anything but comfortable.Obedience does not guarantee comfort. But even in the middle of our messiness, we can count on the presence of God.

O Festival de cinema de Cannes decorre até dia 23 no sul de França. Em competição nas curtas metragens da selecção oficial está o filme português "Algumas coisas que acontecem ao lado de um rio". Uma obra de Daniel Soares, realizador que já tinha sido distinguido em 2024 com uma menção especial para a outra curta com "Mau por um momento". Desta feita Daniel Soares põe em cena um corpo que flutua no rio, perante a impassividade das pessoas, distraídas com os seus afazeres. O cineasta começa por se declarar supreso com o facto de ter sido seleccionado uma segunda vez para a mais prestigiosa das mostras deste certame.   Para já, ficámos muito surpreendidos. Matematicamente falando, é muito complicado ter um filme seleccionado. Há dois anos acho que eram 4 700 filmes ou o quê que foram submetidos ! E os escolhidos este ano acho que são 3000 e tal e 10 escolhidos ! Então ou seja matematicamente é muito complicado e consegui-lo uma segunda vez é muito difícil. Então não estava com muita expectativa em relação a isso, voltar a ser seleccionado. Portanto, se calhar desta vez foi... A primeira vez é claro que é muito especial, mas da segunda vez já é "Espera aí ser selecionado uma vez, dá-te aquela sensação de "ok, consegui enganá-los, enganaram-se, sei lá !" E a segunda vez... pronto, se calhar há aqui qualquer coisa em que eu posso confiar mais na minha intuição quando escrevo especialmente.   Porém, se teve essa sensação de ter enganado alguém, acabou por sair de lá com uma distinção. Eles acabaram por lhe enviar uma mensagem, algo contrária de alguma fé, pelo menos no seu cinema. Então, mas agora que está seleccionado uma segunda vez, já teve a curiosidade de ver com quem é que vai estar a competir aqui nesta seleção das curtas metragens da competição oficial? Sim, desta vez. Pessoalmente, eu não conheço ninguém. Da última vez eu conhecia. Tinha um amigo que tinha sido seleccionado, desta vez pessoalmente, não conheço ninguém, mas já vi o filme do realizador do Vietname, uma longa metragem de que eu gostei muito na altura. Lembro-me de ver e vai estar com uma curta. "O sonho é um caracol", não é? Exacto. "Le rêve est un escargot", na tradução francesa do título original vietnamita. Ao fim e ao cabo Cannes, agora já conhece. Já podemos fazer um rescaldo. Como foi para si? Gostou de lá ter ido? Está entusiasmado por voltar? O que é que pretende fazer nesta edição?   Sim, estou entusiasmado. Gostei muito da primeira experiência. Se calhar agora, se puder, gostaria de ver mais filmes do que da última vez. Da última vez não consegui ver muitos filmes, mas isso talvez será assim uma coisa que eu tentarei fazer. É assim, há muitas reuniões também, não é que, que acontecem? Pois claro. Há todo um espectáculo que se calhar não é muito a minha cena, mas ao mesmo tempo é importante para dar visibilidade ao filme e aos próximos filmes e construir dessa forma, sei lá, um percurso que me permita continuar a fazer filmes, o que é sempre difícil. Por tudo isso. Pois é, isso é um lugar onde durante duas semanas o pessoal se encontra e celebra o cinema como em nenhum outro lugar, acaba por ser muito especial.   Vamos falar do seu filme "Algumas coisas que acontecem ao lado de um rio". Se calhar, antes de entrarmos na história, no argumento, falemos um pouco do elenco. Você foi buscar, por exemplo, valores consagrados do cinema português. Penso em Teresa Madruga, que já colaborou com pessoas como Manoel de Oliveira, Miguel Gomes, que são consagrados em Cannes. E depois há valores menos conhecidos. Por exemplo, os dois rapazes que dão corpo ao grupo de imigrantes e de estafetas que vão tomar banho no rio. Como é que foi pegar neste leque heterogéneo de pessoas para filmar esta obra?   Isto é um filme de elenco. E a ideia foi sempre essa. Foi misturar actores incríveis, como a Teresa, como o João Vicente e misturá-los com pessoas menos conhecidas. Para mim, estes dois estafetas não faria qualquer sentido que fossem actores profissionais, caras conhecidas, não é? Acho que isso muitas vezes te tira de um filme, de uma experiência ou te lembra que estás a ver um filme. Então a ideia foi essa, foi misturar e encontrar as pessoas que fossem as mais indicadas para aqueles papéis. E às vezes são, como no caso da Teresa, actrizes com uma grande história e outras vezes são pessoas que nunca estiveram à frente de uma câmara. E eu gosto desse...   É o caso do Dilip, é o caso do Amarjeet ? É o caso deles. Como é que os conheceu? Como é que chegou até eles?   Fizemos um casting de rua. Encontrámo-los em grupos de estafetas, onde eles se encontram muitas vezes em Lisboa há vários pontos onde eles se encontram, se juntam e aí foi sobretudo a Romina e o Tomás que lideraram esse processo. E foi assim que fomos encontrando essas várias pessoas. Alguns deles estavam interessados em fazer parte de um filme, outras nem tanto. Então, aí já houve assim uma primeira filtragem e depois foram chamados. Fizemos casting. Eu acho que com os dois escolhidos, O Dilip e o Armajeet fizemos três vezes casting para ter a certeza. E eu acho que eles saíram super bem. Tinha algum receio, sim, mas. Mas não correu tudo muito bem.   Já nos filmes anteriores você tinha filmes que podiam passar ou pelo menos ser interpretados como um retrato de alguma denúncia, de algum cinismo da nossa sociedade. Fosse, por exemplo, em relação à especulação imobiliária em torno da capital portuguesa. Aqui, nomeadamente, as pessoas estão demasiado preocupadas e não vêem sequer um cadáver que, de facto, está a flutuar no rio. É um pouco isso ? Você pretendia, de facto, pôr o dedo na ferida, não é? Em relação à forma como a nossa sociedade vive, como está estruturada ?   É assim, eu não acho que é cinismo. Eu acho que é, pelo contrário, se calhar. Ou seja, se calhar a ideia inicial tenha algo irónico, não é, isso sim. Agora o cinismo, acho que não. Porque se fosse cinismo, se calhar não faria um filme. Eu acho que é mais um olhar humano, só que pronto... Os personagens no filme estão assim, todos em piloto automático. Todos nas suas bolhas, sem com os seus problemas do dia a dia, sem conseguirem ver o corpo. Só que para mim era super importante de mostrar todas as classes sociais, mostrar todas as idades. Não acho que seja cinismo, porque eu acabei de encontrar um pouco de mim em todos esses personagens. Ou seja, não é de cima para baixo. Pelo contrário, eu estou aí também. Ou seja, eu também sofro desses problemas contemporâneos.   A dependência em relação aos ecrãs, às redes sociais, por exemplo.   Por exemplo. Sim, sobretudo isso. Mas não só. Muitas vezes, esta questão de não conseguir estar presente no momento e muitas vezes. Ou seja, de estar com as minhas filhas e estar preocupado com outras coisas e não conseguir estar ali, não é? Ou seja, fisicamente sim, mas com a cabeça sempre a pensar no futuro, já ou no passado. Também esta ideia da fragmentação de como consumimos filmes ou conteúdos, tudo cada vez mais rápido, o YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, tudo cada vez mais acelerado. E como muitas vezes os telefones já são donos de nós, do nosso foco, da nossa atenção. Esta era do "Short attention span" [Atenção de curta duração], esta coisa que é muito violenta, que aos poucos nos foi conquistando e que agora chegamos a um ponto que é para aí onde é que vamos a partir daqui, não é? Então não é um cinismo, porque existe uma esperança para mim neste filme.   A esperança são as crianças ?   E do amor pela vida. Não é que as crianças seja isso. É uma leitura do filme, que é esta coisa das crianças serem a solução ou, para um futuro melhor. Eles vão fazer melhor do que nós. Não sei o quê. Só que muitas vezes esquecemos que as gerações anteriores fizeram isso connosco, não é? Então, nós somos a geração do futuro, da esperança, da geração anterior. Então, acho que é muito fácil falar isso, achar que a próxima geração. Mas como ? Se nos vêem a viver desta forma, como é que eles vão de repente dar uma volta de 180 graus ? Eu acho que é mais na nossa geração ainda. Nós é que temos que encontrar uma forma de lidar com isso, de viver de uma forma diferente. Talvez seja quase uma ideia utópica, ou seja. Mas talvez não também, porque também não é assim tão utópico, não é? De tentar sair desse mundo digital e viver no mundo real.   E finalmente, que cinéfilo é o Daniel Soares? Mais que não seja em relação à sua trajectória que passa por Portugal, mas também, e em larga escala, pela Alemanha. Que tipo de filmes é que retém a sua atenção e que foram construindo o responsável de cinema que hoje é e que deve ter sido? Um cinéfilo de longa data, presumo ?   Por acaso, não por acaso, nunca cresci muito com cinema. Nunca tive ninguém que me mostrou filmes. Comecei a ver cinema, sei lá, uns sete ou oito anos atrás. Na verdade, até porque os filmes que eu via quando era criança não me revia neles. Sempre achei muito ter esta noção de estar a ver um filme e pronto. Mas sei lá, os primeiros filmes que eu comecei a ver que na verdade não têm muito a ver com os meus filmes que eu faço hoje em dia, mas foram os filmes do Kiarostami, que era o cinema que se calhar se aproxima um pouco mais...   Abbas Kiarostami do Irão.   Sim, mas por exemplo, o Michelangelo Franmartino. Eu lembro-me de ver o "Quatro volte" e achar que, sei lá. Primeiro ficaste super inspirado e ao mesmo tempo sentir que isto seria um tipo de filme que eu conseguisse fazer, mesmo sendo super complicado, obviamente. Eu lembro também Lisandro Alonso, primeiros filmes. Lembro me também do "Toni Erdmann", da Maren Ade. E aí já se aproxima, de certa forma, daquilo que eu faço, no sentido de já ser mais contemporâneo. Ter já esta comédia negra, se quiser falar assim, dessa forma. Ou seja, aí já se vai aproximando, se calhar, daquilo que eu tentaria fazer. Ou os filmes do [Michael] Haneke. Aí sim, também já. Se calhar já entra um bocado essa parte. Mais como estava a dizer, cínica, não é? Mas eu acho que apesar de tudo mesmo o Haneke, o que faz aquele tipo de filmes porque deve, imagino amar a vida, não é? Ou seja, para quê se não fazer um filme desses?   Chegou ao cinema tarde, mas tem dado nas vistas. E agora o facto de já ter sido distinguido em cana e de voltar a Cannes. A ideia para si agora seria de facto perseverar, Manter-se neste meio. Viver deste cinema que faz? Sim, esse é o objectivo. Estou agora a preparar uma longa que vamos filmar no próximo Verão. Não este ano. O ano que vem. E é isso. Sim, idealmente continuar a fazer filmes. Será em Portugal  a rodagem ? Sim, será em Portugal

Eighteen months ago, Hyrox did not exist in India. Last month, 8,200 people paid Rs 9,000 each to do a sled push at the Bangalore International Exhibition Centre. Attendees described the event as a “carnival”, and for several weeks, everyone was talking and proudly sharing their Hyrox timings.If you're wondering what on earth is going on, well, this episode is for you.Fitness as an event isn't new in India. Every wave of participative fitness in India solved something the previous one couldn't. Marathons gave the urban professional class a finish line and an identity. Crossfit gave them a tribe and a daily ritual. Both peaked, both retreated, both ended up circling the same thin, affluent cohort in Bengaluru and Mumbai. Now Hyrox has arrived, and in one season blown past anything either of those formats built in India. The question is whether Hyrox is the next iteration of the same product, or something fundamentally different.Then there's the business side of it. Hyrox is a premium commercial format, with revenue lines through event tickets, a global licensing model, a PUMA deal, and a middleman at every layer between the participant and the finish line. That commercial stack sits on top of a culture that markets itself on community and participation. Does that accelerate the fitness ecosystem or does it extract from it?And to find out that answer, Praveen Gopal Krishnan sits with two guests:Prasanna Akela is the cofounder of Belong, a personal training studio in Bengaluru. Before Belong, Prasanna was an early growth leader at companies like CRED, Apple, and Uber India. He's also competed at the national level in ultimate frisbee and has trained extensively in endurance and strength. He brings the operator's view: what does someone building a fitness business in India actually see when a global format like Hyrox walks in?“I've not seen this culture of people at scale wanting to get better. Everybody does their first Hyrox. Nobody's like, how do I do my second Hyrox better than my first one.”Dilip Kumar leads investments at Rainmatter*, Zerodha's health and fitness fund, which has deployed over Rs 250 crore across dozens of investments in health and fitness—including Hyrox India, Ironman, and Devil Circuit. He's also a serious endurance athlete with a 2:55 marathon personal best and a finisher at the Boston Marathon. He has publicly called Hyrox as India's “2008 IPL moment” for fitness. He came to this conversation with a declared interest and a clear conviction.“99% of the people are not intrinsically motivated. The invention of all these events kind of expanded that category — and that's where we started investing.”Prasanna is building inside the wave and Dilip is investing and betting on it. Both of them are also participants. They competed in last month's Hyrox event at Bengaluru. The episode tries to find out how long the wave is going to last—and what might happen after that.*Zerodha's perennial fund Rainmatter Capital is an investor in The Ken.This episode was hosted and produced by Praveen Gopal Krishnan. Rajiv C N, our resident technical producer did the audio production.

In a candid, unscripted exchange, India’s pharma titans peeled back the mythology of overnight success to reveal a harder truth: conviction compounded over decades. What began as two products and a bet on neglected therapy areas evolved into a multibillion-dollar enterprise riding India’s epidemiological shift. Innovation, they argued, is a long game—scarred by failed trials, investor backlash, and capital droughts—yet redeemed by landmark deals and scientific persistence. In this episode, host Vikas Dandekar talks to Dilip Shanghvi, Chairman of Sun Pharma and Glenn Saldanha, Managing Director at Glenmark Pharma about regulatory reforms, AI acceleration, and a renewed policy push, the message was clear: India stands at the cusp of a pharmaceutical inflection point—if it dares to back its pipeline as boldly as its past.Listen on:Listen to Corner Office Conversation: Corner Office Conversation with Sridhar Vembu, CEO, of Zoho Corporation, Corner Office Conversation with Gunjan Soni, Country Managing Director, Youtube India, Corner Office Conversation with Elizabeth Reid, Head of Search, Google, Corner Office Conversation with Rajan Anandan, Managing Director, Peak XV & Surge and much more.

Back in the 1990s, Dilip Upmanyu sat in a room filled with servers as he pieced together a homegrown database of costs and SKUs. His employer at the time couldn't tell which products paid the bills; by dawn, the young financial analyst could. That improvised profitability model, he tells us, still informs his investment mindset today.Upmanyu never mistook rows of numbers for the whole story. Later joining IBM, he moved from product analytics to revenue accounting in a single year, then volunteered to face Wall Street. Preparing earnings decks, he practiced fielding questions until he could anticipate three out of four before the line opened. “Data matter only when you can explain the ‘why,' ” Upmanyu tells us.A misstep—a brilliant job wrapped in toxic politics—taught him culture diligence. From then on he evaluated environments as rigorously as balance sheets. That instinct paid off when NetIQ sold to Attachmate: suddenly he was steering a global integration that tripled his team and required fresh capital. He treated the chaos as a practicum in fundraising and leadership, logging the final credit hours for his CFO ambition.By the time Cloudera called in 2023, Upmanyu had stitched together every major finance discipline. Today he pushes growth by leading with the firm's public‑cloud platform and embedding AI into forecasting.

SummaryWhat does it really mean to learn in today's world of reels, AI, and short attention spans? In today's episode of “The Gyaan Project”, I'm joined by Prof. Dilip Menon. A global historian, Mellon Chair of Indian Studies at the University of Witwatersrand, and a Science Breakthrough winner—who's spent years exploring how knowledge travels across time, oceans, and cultures. If you're a student, parent, or just curious about why our education feels broken, this episode will shift how you think about learning itself.Key Insights:Teacher-Student Dynamics: Menon invites us to invert the traditional hierarchical relationship between teachers and students, suggesting "a teacher paradoxically is willing to learn."Language & Colonial Legacy: How our ability to theorize in our native languages has been impacted by colonial histories, and why this matters for knowledge creation.Beyond Employability: Why our education systems remain trapped in industrial-era thinking while the world has moved far beyond those needs.Digital Learning: The transformative potential of digital media as active learning tools rather than passive consumption channels.Interdisciplinary Approach: The artificial divide between arts and sciences, and how meaningful education requires breaking down these barriers.Knowledge Creation: Envisioning a future where students actively generate knowledge rather than merely consuming information.Practical Advice: Strategies for focused learning in a distracted age, including deliberate disconnection from constant digital engagement.Prof. Menon's vision for education in 2047 centers on creativity, experimentation, and engagement with AI as partners in knowledge creation rather than threats to human learning.For all details: https://www.thegyaanproject.com/p/ep-306-learning-in-the-amrit-kaal This is a public episode.

On December 3rd, 1971, India and Pakistan go to war on two fronts, battling for the future of Bangladesh. In the East, the Indian army races against time, hoping to capture Dacca and force a Pakistani surrender before the United Nations can demand a ceasefire. Meanwhile, Richard Nixon and Henry Kissinger unleash a fusillade of diplomatic pressure to frighten a defiant Indira Gandhi into compliance. After months of imprisonment, Sheikh Mujibur Rahman learns what has happened to his country. The war ends, and a new era begins.  SOURCES: Bass, Gary K.

Dilip Barman, a passionate advocate for plant-based living, has dedicated his life to transforming the way people view food and nutrition. As president of the Triangle Vegetarian Society, his work has reached thousands, inspiring healthier and more compassionate choices. Beyond his leadership, Dilip is also a Food for Life instructor with the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine (PCRM), where he educates communities on the profound health benefits of plant-based eating. His role as Director of Nutrition Education at Central Park School in North Carolina allows him to shape young minds and integrate plant-based principles into educational systems. With boundless energy and an unshakeable commitment, Dilip's work continues to reshape lives through the power of plants. A Journey Rooted in Vegetarianism Dilip's journey began with his parents, who were early immigrants from India. Raised in a vegetarian household, Dilip was introduced to meat as a child, but it was always accompanied by the ritual of washing hands and lips after consumption, reflecting his family's deep-seated cultural beliefs. This early exposure to vegetarianism set the stage for his eventual transition to veganism, driven initially by ethical concerns rather than health reasons. From Vegetarianism to Veganism: The Ethical Shift The transition from vegetarianism to veganism was a gradual process for Dilip. During his college years, a moment of reflection in a grocery store led him to give up meat, but it wasn't until he encountered a vegan Thanksgiving event that he started to seriously consider a fully plant-based diet. The literature and community he encountered there deepened his understanding, eventually leading him to give up dairy, a staple in his family's diet. His journey highlights the challenges and rewards of aligning one's ethical beliefs with dietary choices. Health Benefits: A Personal and Familial Perspective While Dilip's initial motivation for going vegan was ethical, he later observed significant health benefits. He shared anecdotes of how eliminating dairy from his diet led to a dramatic reduction in colds and flus, a benefit he has maintained for over 25 years. Furthermore, Dilip reflected on the health issues faced by his family members, many of whom were heavy dairy consumers. These observations reinforced his commitment to a plant-based lifestyle and his advocacy for others to consider the health benefits of such a diet. Code Blue: Advocating for Plant-Based Medicine Dilip's commitment to plant-based living extends beyond personal practice; he has also played a key role in broader advocacy efforts. As the executive producer of the film "Code Blue," Dilip helped bring to light the potential of a plant-based diet to prevent and reverse chronic diseases. The film follows Dr. Saray Stancic's journey of overcoming multiple sclerosis through a plant-based diet, emphasizing the transformative power of nutrition in managing and reversing serious health conditions. Educating the Next Generation: The Healthy Snack Program In addition to his advocacy work, Dilip has made significant contributions to nutrition education, particularly in schools. Although his role as the Director of Nutrition Education at the Central Park School in Durham, North Carolina, has been dormant since the pandemic, Dilip has successfully implemented the Healthy Snack Program in other schools across the country. This program provides teachers with the tools and resources to offer healthy, plant-based snacks to students, fostering a new generation of informed and healthy eaters. www.HealthScience.org/097-dilip-barman

In the wake of the deadly Bhola Cyclone, 50 million Pakistanis go to the polls on December 7th, 1970 and cast their votes in a national election, which yields unexpected and destabilizing results. As the emergent factions fight for control of Pakistan's nascent democracy, the political process slowly disintegrates and the gulf between East and West Pakistan becomes irreconcilable.
