Talking about what makes IADA different from other institutions in this field, co-founder Sudeep Bhargava says, “Very few institutions in the world have as many Design-based courses as we do. Design is a broad term and a student should have the right to choose what they wish to study.

“The Next Set Of Wealth Creators Will Be Asian Women”: The Equality Summit 2025 Presented By RizingHer In Delhi

“The Next Set Of Wealth Creators Will Be Asian Women”: The Equality Summit 2025 Presented By RizingHer In Delhi

Why the rising success of women founders means the BFSI sector needs to further customize financial products

RizingHer – an entrepreneurial information network that empowers and arms women leaders with knowledge, insights, mentorship and guidance – curated The Equality Summit 2025 in Delhi on 7th March 2025, which was the eve of International Women’s Day. The event was in partnership with India’s leading law firm Cyril Amarchand Mangaldas & supported by DSP Mutual Fund and IDFC First Bank.

This is the second equality-focused event curated by RizingHer following The Rizing Equality Summit 2024 last February in Mumbai. RizingHer will soldier on with these equality-focused initiatives to take women entrepreneurs to the next level. A time like this is relevant, considering that as of 2024, close to 20 out of nearly 110 Indian unicorns are co-founded and led by women, with the D2C space seeming to emerge as a haven for women entrepreneurs. And India is said to have more than 7000 active startups with at least 1 female founder, accounting for 7.5% of the country’s startup ecosystem, as of 2025.

This is particularly relevant for the BFSI sector in terms of tangible opportunities and imperatives. With more and more women founders thriving and making their mark on the global startup ecosystem, their ventures would require a bit more customized financial products with evolved credit assessments and risk models. Accordingly, policies could be better designed to address the challenges that women entrepreneurs might uniquely face.

The forum gathered a mix of women leaders, aspiring and established women entrepreneurs, investors and other stakeholders to explore successful women founders from a position of strength & lay out their trials and tribulations, how to upskill through AI and Blockchain, embarking on financial freedom, how to employ mindfulness, engaging with venture debt and more.

The keynote speech – given by Rahul Bhasin, Founder & Managing Partner of Baring Private Equity Partners India – powerfully touched on buoying female leadership, being taken more seriously, competing in a world that’s much more tech-led than before and more.

The event had a stellar investor panel featuring Ritika Rathi of Cyril Amarchand Mangaldas, Nidhi Khurana of SIDBI Venture Capital Fund of Funds, Riya Singh of Soonicorn Ventures and Vanshika Bagrecha of RPSG Capital.

The Equality Summit 2025, also, featured sessions, such as a masterclass by DSP Mutual Fund to foster more financial freedom for women founders, a venture debt session by Rahul Gupta of ValuAble, as well as sessions, like mindfulness, AI, Blockchain and more.

Vandana Shroff, Partner – Cyril Amarchand Mangaldas, emphasizes, “At CAM, we’ve endeavoured to guide multiple women-led ventures in India and it never ceases to amaze us how resilient and innovative these women entrepreneurs can be. If we actively work on plugging the gaps, such as fostering better access to capital, well-intentioned mentorship and conducive corporate governance structures, there’s no telling what India could look like 10 years down the line”.

Cyril Amarchand Mangaldas (CAM) is India’s leading law firm that advises a large and diverse set of clients, including domestic and foreign commercial enterprises, financial institutions, PE and VC funds, startups & government and regulatory bodies. CAM has offices in key business centres in Mumbai, Delhi-NCR, Bengaluru, Ahmedabad, Hyderabad, Chennai, GIFT City, Singapore and Abu Dhabi.

Shrija Agrawal, Founder – RizingTV, remarks, “I’m fairly confident that the next set of wealth creators are going to be women from India and Asia. Slowly and steadily, women in Asia have been increasing their combined wealth by $2 trillion every year since 2019 & I think that’s going to continue to happen where women leaders, entrepreneurs and investors will change the startup ecosystem as we know it. This is the new standard for meaningful wealth creation”.

RizingTV – which RizingHer is a property of – is a new-age and inclusive entrepreneurial information network that aims to be the true mirror reflecting Indian business, finance and technology in the expanse of not just Asia, but also, the global stage. Crafted for the intellectually curious, it explores the tenets that could help India become a $5 trillion economy: gender, capital, innovation, technology, ESG, sustainability, policy and more.

DSP Mutual Fund has spent more than 30 years helping salaried people, rich individuals, NRIs, SMEs, foreign institutional investors and other parties grow their wealth and help them invest better.

Testimonies from Pastors and believers in India

Our program has already transformed lives and inspired many, including Pastors in India who have shared their powerful testimonies. One Pastor stated, “I hope you learn about the path to heaven, which is the purpose of faith, and how God will fulfill the history of the last Bible.“ This sentiment speaks volumes about the urgency and significance of learning biblical truths.

Another Pastor emphasized the importance of the Book of Revelation by saying, “If you are a believer waiting for the Second Coming of Jesus, the Book of Revelation records when, where, to whom, and how He will come. If you hear the word and believe it, you can anchor your faith in the promises of Scripture.“ His message is clear: prepare your heart and mind for the glorious return of Christ by immersing yourself in His Word.

The testimonies continue to inspire even, with one of our students who shared their excitement about the teachings he had never encountered before. “I’ve never heard this word before, it’s completely new to me. Even after multiple biblical courses, enrolling at IBA revealed the Bible’s stunning record of God’s plan to deliver promised blessings.”

Obayifo Project: The Independent Film That Chose India as Its Launchpad and Now Heads to Mexican Cinemas

Obayifo Project: The Independent Film That Chose India as Its Launchpad and Now Heads to Mexican Cinemas

Mumbai, India — March 2025 — In a landscape dominated by major studio productions, Obayifo Project has carved out a path that defies convention. Directed by Spanish filmmaker Paco Arasanz, this supernatural thriller is a case study in how independent cinema, when coupled with a bold and strategic release plan, can break into the global market. That journey began with a deliberate decision: launching first in India via OTTplus, and now, after its international success, heading to Mexican cinemas through CNMG Distribución.

Unlike typical indie films that prioritize local premieres, Obayifo Project took a different route. By choosing India as its first stop — via OTTplus, a key platform for culturally rich and daring content — the film activated a wider international rollout that has since taken it across continents.

The response in India was overwhelming. For three consecutive weeks, Obayifo Project dominated OTTplus as the #1 most-watched title, outperforming major Bollywood and international blockbusters and generating strong word-of-mouth buzz.

“India was never just a random choice; it was the cornerstone of our strategy. We believed Indian audiences would engage deeply with a story rooted in folklore and psychological horror,” says Paco Arasanz. “OTTplus gave us that first vital platform.”

Global expansion powered by partnerships

After its successful Indian debut, Obayifo Project continued its expansion with the support of Jolizco Films, the independent distributor led by Liz Díaz. Their collaboration helped the project secure key placements on platforms such as Amazon Prime, ClaroVideo, Tubi, Fawesome, and Found TV, cementing the film’s international footprint.

“Working with Jolizco Films allowed us to position the film beyond borders and take advantage of platforms aligned with our vision,” adds Arasanz.

In November 2024, the film reached a new milestone when it premiered globally on YouTube via V Channels, entering the Top 10 most-watched Mexican films on the platform.

A return home: theatrical release with CNMG Distribución

Now, after proving itself internationally, Obayifo Project will have its highly anticipated theatrical release in Mexico on March 13, 2025, thanks to CNMG Distribución. Under the leadership of Israel López, CNMG is championing the return of independent films like Obayifo Project to cinemas, giving audiences the opportunity to experience the film on the big screen.

“Israel López and CNMG Distribución immediately understood the film’s journey and believed in its potential for theatrical success. Thanks to them, we are completing this global cycle where it all comes full circle back to Mexican theaters,” explains Arasanz.

Recognition and critical acclaim

The film’s success is not only commercial. Obayifo Project is currently shortlisted for the prestigious Ariel Awards, Mexico’s highest cinematic recognition, highlighting its impact both internationally and at home.

Now streaming on OTTplus and Bcineet

While Mexican audiences prepare for the theatrical premiere, the film remains available to Indian viewers exclusively on OTTplus, the platform where it first found success:

Globally, it is also streaming via Bcineet, a platform focused on independent and auteur cinema:

Watch on Bcineet

“India was our first major step, but now, thanks to CNMG Distribución, we are bringing this story back home to Mexican cinemas — something we are deeply proud of,” concludes Arasanz.

About Obayifo Project:

Obayifo Project is a psychological horror-thriller blending West African folklore with contemporary tension. With its eerie atmosphere and mythological roots, the film examines universal fears through the lens of ancient legends and psychological dread.

Fair Education is a Right – Let’s End the Exploitation!

Fair Education is a Right – Let’s End the Exploitation!
Who am I? What am I? Where am I from? Which religion do I belong to? These questions are irrelevant. What truly matters is what I’m about to share with you, and more importantly, what you are about to read or watch. Education is a fundamental right. But today, across India, it is being exploited—and not just exploited in a way that impacts the few, but exploited in a way that is hurting every single parent, teacher, and child. This isn’t just a matter of policy—this is about the future of our children and the future of India itself. For too long, parents have been burdened with excessive fees, arbitrary costs, and the imposition of an 18% GST on non-essential education services—costs that schools have made mandatory, despite these services not being required. Teachers, the very people responsible for shaping the future, are facing exploitation with poor pay, inadequate working conditions, and intense pressure. And while all this is happening, government schools are shrinking, their resources depleting, and their ability to provide quality education diminishing. I am from Haldwani, Uttarakhand, and my commitment is clear. I am not here to talk about me—I am here to speak up for every parent, every teacher, and every child. I have taken an oath to fight against this exploitation, and I am doing so every Sunday from 11 AM to 1 PM at Budha Park, Haldwani. I have already held four peaceful sittings and will continue until the government takes action to end this injustice in our education system. But let me be clear—this fight is not just about me. It’s not about a single person. It’s about you—the parents who are struggling to keep up with the rising costs, the teachers who are overworked and underpaid, and the children who are missing out on a bright future because of an unfair system. We cannot stand by and watch this happen anymore. We need to demand:
  1. Fair Treatment for Teachers: Proper pay, better working conditions, and the respect they deserve.
  2. Affordable Education for Parents and Children: No unnecessary financial burdens that keep quality education out of reach.
  3. Support for Government Schools – These schools are shrinking, but they are the lifeline for many children. It’s time we invest in them and give them the resources they need to succeed.
List is endless…… I am committed to bringing attention to this issue, and I need your help. This is not just my battle; it is our battle. I am asking you to watch the videos below, spread the word, and join this fight for every parent, every teacher, and every child in India. This is an issue that affects the future of our nation, and if we don’t act now, the consequences will be dire. Let’s stand up, together, for a fair education system that empowers every child to rise to their full potential. Kindly take a moment to watch the videos linked below and see why this fight is so urgent. You can watch me (don’t follow, just watch) on my social media platforms for more updates and details: I am available for any live sessions or online discussions. Feel free to contact me for further details. Thank you for your time and support in advancing this crucial cause for India’s future. Deep Chandra Pande Mobile: 7997110444
