Train with people better than you, read books that challenge you, take on work that stretches your abilities, and trade instant gratification for long-term gains. Growth begins when you stop choosing only what makes you comfortable.

Who owns the audience, and who captures the value? At the CII Big Picture Summit 2026, Avinash Pandey, Secretary General & CEO, Indian Broadcasting and Digital Foundation (IBDF), shared his perspective on a question central to the future of Indiaโ€™s Media & Entertainment industry. As audiences move across television, OTT, and connected TV, one principle remains clear: quality content earns attention, but a strong ecosystem determines how that attention translates into value. Three priorities will shape the industry's next phase of growth: * Regulatory flexibility to encourage innovation and investment in diverse content. * Credible audience measurement to enable informed decisions and fair recognition of audience value. * Industry collaboration to build a more connected and sustainable media ecosystem. India's strength lies in its scale, linguistic diversity, and storytelling traditions. Unlocking its full potential requires an environment where broadcasters can innovate, audience preferences are understood, and quality content is rewarded. At IBDF, we believe the future of broadcasting depends on strengthening this entire ecosystem, bringing together content, technology, measurement, and policy to support sustainable industry growth. The real opportunity is not simply to compete for audiences, but to build an ecosystem that understands them, serves them, and creates lasting value for all stakeholders. @panavi #IBDF #CIIBigPictureSummit #MediaAndEntertainment #IndianBroadcasting #AudienceMeasurement

Just as it is wrong for protesters to abuse and attack journalists, journalists heckling the leaders of a protest movement is a breach of the very same professional responsibility. Our job as reporters is to listen, ask questions and report on the story โ€” not become active participants in it. Journalists resorting to theatre and abuse during press conferences is plain wrong and unacceptable. Report on the story. Donโ€™t become the story.

Disturbing to note that Positioned right at the top as the No 1 college of India (As per the latest National Institutional Ranking Framework (NIRF) 2025 rankings), my Alma Mater HINDU COLLEGE is facing significant protests from teachers & Staff. Staff Association has been sitting in dharna against the Principal and the Chairman, Governing Body, for more than two weeks now. It has passed a resolution of "no confidence" against the Principal, and has sought that the Governing Body take action to fulfill its various demands but to no avail to date. Now called a Press Conference tomorrow noon at the Hindu College Campusโ€ฆ.

Be hungry like Samsung. Samsung has just recorded a quarterly operating profit of USD 80 billion or almost Rs 8 lakh crore! Its annual profit may exceed the combined profits of all listed companies in India. Its story is very amazing. Unlike the US tech companies which were founded as tech companies, Samsung was founded as a trading company which moved into textiles and food processing. Much later, it moved to consumer electronics like ACs and mobile phones. And from there into cutting-edge memory chips. What an evolution. Companies like Samsung generate lakhs of jobs in Korea and other countries, including India. And women are a big part of the workforce. Samsung, which is owner-driven, has shown how companies must remain hungry and dynamic to do more even when they have achieved considerable success. Keep growing and innovating. Nothing is impossible.

Some places hold memories. Others hold pieces of us. The school corridor where we dreamed big, the cafรฉ where our heart broke, the street where we learnt to find our way. Years later, everything looks familiar, yet somehow different. Perhaps the place hasnโ€™t changed. Perhaps we have.

I am so happy that some residences of Shivaji park are getting sensitive about the noise pollution and asking the authorities to cancel the protest of CJP today at Shivaji park . I am hundred percent sure that they will raise the same objection with the same intensity if not more when ever there is any jalsa of any political party of Maharashtra is planned at Shivaji park ,
