Once upon a time, All India Radio's Urdu service used to broadcast film stories. Here is the story of the film Shankar Hussain, briefly written and narrated by Anwaar Ahmed, a famous radio announcer from that era.Shankar Hussain (A 1977 Film in Hindi)Dr Uday Shankar is a kind-hearted Hindu gentleman who has chosen to practice medicine in a village rather than make money by working in a large city. Once, a devastating flood hits a nearby village and he goes there to minister to the affected people. At this time, he happens to rescue a Muslim child, Husain, whose entire family has been wiped out. He raises the boy as his own, alongside his own son, Ajay. As a good Hindu, he decides to raise the boy in the religion of his own parents, and Husain thus grows up to be a practising Muslim living in the backdrop of a Hindu household. Everyone loves the new addition to the household and Husain also is deeply attached to his new family.Yusuf NaqviDirectorKamal AmrohiWriterCurated and Cover by Irfan

Here's a stat that might make you spit out your coffee: 80% of AI projects launched last year failed to deliver on their promises. Yikes! In this conversation that's refreshingly no nonsense, Nellie chats with Shankar Kalyana, CTO at Stantec, about why so many change leaders are struggling with AI implementation and what the successful 20% are doing differently.Shankar cuts through the AI hype with practical wisdom from someone who's actually made this stuff work. He shares why your team might be resistant to that shiny new Copilot license (and what to do about it), which parts of Microsoft Copilot actually deliver value versus where it falls flat (Excel, we're looking at you), and why sometimes the best approach is to "chatbot the heck out of it" and learn as you go.----Connect with:Nellie WartoftCEO of TigerhallChair of the Executive Council for Leading Change (ECLC)nellie@tigerhall.com ----Breathe by RYGO | https://soundcloud.com/francesco-rigolonEverything You Need Is By Your Side by Vlad Gluschenko |Music promoted by https://www.free-stock-music.comCreative Commons / Attribution 3.0 Unported License (CC BY 3.0)https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/deed.en_US

On this week's episode, the guys are joined by Washington Post's Wizards Reporter Varun Shankar. They talk about his background in basketball journalism and how he landed at the Post (1:37), his typical game day routine (08:12), thoughts on the Wizards roster and direction as a franchise (13:10), and wrap with his thoughts on the broader NBA landscape and who he's picking to win the Finals (29:13). Then, they go through Nithin's power poll of all 30 NBA teams and debate where teams should stand (35:58).  

Episode NotesLt Gen P. R. Shankar outlines the evolution of India's defense industry and how it is nurturing a growing ecosystem of indigenous production. He highlights that India's armed forces have always been adequately equipped for national defense, the key question being whether it can develop a defence industry that would enable it to act as a regional power.The discussion explores the historical structure of India's defence sector, traditionally dominated by public sector organizations such as the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO). It traces the gradual but significant entry of private players into the defence industry, marking a shift towards a more diversified and dynamic ecosystem. Gen. Shankar emphasizes that meaningful reform in procurement processes does not necessarily require more rules; rather clarity of intent, domain expertise, and better coordination among the armed forces, bureaucracy, political leadership, and industry. A key highlight of the episode is the artillery modernization program, which serves as a successful case study of long-term strategic planning and sustained execution, offering valuable lessons for other sectors and weapon systems. The conversation also delves into the relevance of international defense partnerships for deeper co-development and interoperability. Finally, broader reforms such as the introduction of positive indigenization lists, a more robust export policy, and the inclusion of startups and academic institutions like the Indian Institutes of Technology, are seen as critical to strengthening India's defense industry. Episode ContributorsLt Gen P.R. Shankar (Retd.) is the former Director General of Artillery in the Indian Army and currently a professor in the Aerospace Department at IIT Madras. He has played a key role in India's artillery modernization and frequently writes on strategic and defense issues. He also runs a YouTube channel, Gunner's Shot, focusing on defense and geopolitical affairs.Saheb Singh Chadha is a senior research analyst in the Security Studies Program at Carnegie India. His research focuses on China's foreign and security policies, India-China relations, and India's military modernization. He is broadly interested in the geopolitics of South Asia and the Indo-Pacific. He is also a researcher on a project examining the nature and dynamics of cross-border violence and its impact on civilian communities.Further reading:The Indigenisation of India's Defence Industry by Dhruva Jaishankar.Framework to restrict Chinese components in military drones submitted to defence ministry by Smruti DeshpandeCCS clears mega deal for big indigenous artillery guns by Rajat PanditIndian defence firms need to invest more in innovations and R&D to keep pace with global standards: ReportDefence Procurement Overhaul: MoD Aims To Cut Delays, Faster Acquisitionshttps://pib.gov.in/PressReleseDetailm.aspx?PRID=2114546®=3&lang=1https://www.business-standard.com/external-affairs-defence-security/news/indian-defence-exports-from-brahmos-to-akash-who-are-the-major-buyers-124102800396_1.html  Every two weeks, Interpreting India brings you diverse voices from India and around the world to explore the critical questions shaping the nation's future.

Life Experience Narration

In this episode of the  Salience Podcast, we explore health and the relationships between personal agency and systems. As a society, we under-invest in preventative health in favor of big pharma and a medical model that focuses too much on remedies. Many people would rather take a pill than make the effort to eat healthy whole food and move well.Our guest today is Dr. Anita Shankar from John Hopkins Department of International Health within the Bloomberg School of Public Health. Anita researches and develops behavioral interventions to foster personal agency and leadership in vulnerable populations. In this episode, we talk about some extraordinary examples of developing personal agency through training, and the impact that can have on even the most vulnerable and disempowered populations. For more information about The Salience Podcast and Frontline Mind please visit our website at https://www.frontlinemind.com/the-salience-podcast/ You can also sign up for our newsletter here https://frontlinemind.us17.list-manage.com/subscribe?u=ff181d12c77d7cea5f19a2c48&id=fd7357f614

Dr. Shankar Musunuri, Chairman of the Board, CEO, and Co-Founder of Ocugen, is developing gene therapies for rare blindness diseases like retinitis pigmentosa and Stargardt disease, which have significant unmet medical needs. The modifier gene therapy approach aims to reset homeostasis and create a healthy environment for photoreceptors to stabilize vision loss. Ocugen is also working on a gene therapy for dry age-related macular degeneration, which has the potential to address the late-stage geographic atrophy form of the disease. Shankar explains, "Vision is the most important part for all of us. Many years ago, when we founded Ocugen, it was based on targeting the ophthalmology disease area. We looked into many blindness diseases related to the back of the eye/retina. We have diseases such as AMD- and many people get into that – age-related macular degeneration. Then, there are diseases that are inherited in nature, like retinitis pigmentosa and Stargardt disease. A lot of these diseases impact many families globally. Therefore, our passion for patients has driven that. If there is a significant unmet medical need, we want to take that as a challenge and provide solutions for patients and provide that hope." "There are two rare blindness diseases. One is retinitis pigmentosa. There are about two million people globally who struggle with it. About 300,000 patients are in the US and EU. Effects in about 100 genes can cause retinitis pigmentosa. With our modifier game-changing gene therapy technology, potentially, our one product, which is currently going through a Phase 3 clinical trial, can target this entire population, rather than building or developing 100 products with the traditional gene therapy gene. The second inherited retinal disease we are working on, Stargardt, affects about 100,000 patients in the US and EU. Similar to RP, there are no therapies today to treat these patients' significant unmet medical needs." #Ocugen #CourageousInnovation #GeneTherapy #ModifierGeneTherapy #BlindnessDiseases #RetinitisPigmentosa #GeographicAtrophy #Stargardt ocugen.com Listen to the podcast here

GAZA: EGYPTIAN PLAN. DAVID SHANKAR, WASHINGTON INSTITUTE. MALCOLM HOENLEIN @CONF_OF_PRES @MHOENLEIN1 1900

Varun Shankar joins G&D to give us the latest on your Wizards.

What would you have done? It's one of the most enduring questions in psychology. We all like to think that in a moment of crisis, we'd rise to the occasion and show courage. And yet many of us have had experiences where we followed orders and did what we were told to do. This week, we talk with psychologist Sunita Sah about the reasons why many of us silence ourselves and follow orders, and how we can align our words and actions with our values.In today's conversation, Shankar mentioned our episode with Timur Kuran, in which we talk about self-censorship and a concept called "preference falsification." You can find that episode here. And if you'd like to try Hidden Brain+ and hear our bonus conversation with Sunita Sah, you can sign up for a free trial at apple.co/hiddenbrain or support.hiddenbrain.org. Thanks for listening! 

 "Speak up. Your voice is important." In this episode of the Free Speech Forward podcast, Chris and Joia speak with Sangeetha Shankar, who shares her journey as an advocate for free speech, a journey rooted in her upbringing in India and her experiences as a homeschooling mother. Sangeetha discusses the challenges faced by Hindu communities, particularly in light of the SB 403 bill in California, which she argues would lead to racial profiling and discrimination. She also emphasizes the importance of free speech for individual and societal flourishing, drawing on her Hindu beliefs that celebrate freedom and diversity of thought.  Finally, Sangeetha offers insights on effective communication and encourages listeners to find their voice and their community in the face of cultural pressures. She would like to suggest the following tips to help others in sharing their voice:Write, write, write- long-form, journal writing works wonders to get your genuine voice out. Do self podcasts -record yourself on the camera and see how you sound. Talk aloud in the bathtub!Talk to yourself in the mirror. Practice in front of friends, friendly communities like Toastmasters. Get out of your comfort zone and speak on uncomfortable issues.  Learn more about Hinduism in America and Sangeetha's work at: https://www.hinduamerican.org/

Last week on the show, we looked at the science of conversation, and how even ordinary chats can involve a delicate dance of coordination. This week, we explore the discussions we all dread: the tough ones. Telling someone they treated us poorly. Demanding a raise. Taking away an elderly relative's car keys. We talk with Alison Wood Brooks about what makes difficult conversations difficult, and a series of psychological techniques to help you navigate them.If you missed part one of our conversation with Alison, be sure to check it out! It's titled "We Need to Talk."  Shankar also mentioned our episode with Julia Minson, in which we discuss how to keep conflicts from spiraling. You can find that conversation here.

Craig welcomes Varun Shankar of The Washington Post to break down the Wizards' trade deadline moves, including the deal that sent Kyle Kuzma and Patrick Baldwin to the Bucks for Khris Middleton, AJ Johnson, and a 2028 pick swap. They also react in real time to the trade that sent Jonas Valančiūnas to the Kings for Sidy Cissoko and two second-round picks. Shankar shares his insights on which young Wizards players stand to benefit the most from the departures of Kuzma and Valančiūnas, and what these moves signal about Washington's long-term vision.

We all like to believe that we live our lives rationally, deliberately, consciously. But what if our conscious decision making is just the tip of the iceberg? “ I feel like I have a full picture of what's happening inside my own mind,” says Shankar Vedantam. But it turns out “there is a large portion of our mind that's working outside of our conscious awareness.” Shankar founded Hidden Brain Media in order to teach people what science has uncovered about our brains. In this episode, he discusses why we're not as autonomous as we think we are, and the profound implications for the ways we act, think, and live. Show Notes Resources mentioned this episode: “Hidden Brain” by Shankar Vedantam Hidden Brain Website Shankar's TED Talk Similar NSE episodes: Dacher Keltner: How Awe Will Transform Your Life Kristin Neff: The Power of Self-Compassion Amishi Jha: Push-ups for Your Brain Heather Holleman: The Art of Conversation PDF of Lee's Interview Notes Transcription Link Want more NSE?

Despite reporting the crimes, the legal system failed to deliver adequate justice, leaving her abuser with a mere suspended sentence.We explore the broader context of grooming scandals in the UK, emphasizing that such crimes are not limited to any single community. The episode highlights the systemic failures that allow predators to escape with minimal consequences and the impact this has on victims like Keira.Our host, driven by a personal connection to the community and a desire to seek justice, takes us through the investigative process, including the use of private detectives to gather evidence against Shankar. The episode culminates in a dramatic confrontation, aiming to hold the perpetrator accountable and provide Keira with a sense of justice.This episode serves as a powerful reminder of the importance of community vigilance and support for victims of abuse, urging listeners to take action and support efforts to bring justice to those who have been wronged.
