The largest election in the world and India’s most watched sporting event were left in the dust by a Tamil movie. Ajith’s <keyword id="6005881" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="Viswasam">Viswasam</keyword> was the top ‘most influential moment’ of 2019 on Twitter. This is however only one of the many achievements for this commercial potboiler. It survived competition from Rajnikanth’s Petta which released at the same time, and was also well accepted by the audience. Something about the animated and colourful don role played by Ajith in Viswasam that made it a mega blockbuster. It hit the ₹100 crore mark within the first two weeks, crossing ₹200 crore by the time it was pulled from theatres. But fans of Ajith and the movie were not just happy watching the movie. They went on to banter about it all over social media. And that pivoted Viswasam to top of Twitter’s charts. The 48-year old actor is not on social media but his fan clubs have multiple accoounts and some of them even have 500,000 users. The Lok Sabha Election 2019, with 879 million eligible voters, was the second most influential moment in India. The Cricket World Cup, despite its popularity, came in third. (Note: We had earlier reported Ajith's fan clud accounts as his. The error is regretted.)

Here’s why Ajith Kumar's popularity made '#Viswasam' the most influential moment on Twitter for 2019

Recruitment experts <a href="https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/jobs/cxo-hiring-on-full-steam-as-poll-impact-limited/articleshow/67596357.cms">believe</a> that there will be 15-20% increase in hiring at the CXO level in 2019. In India, <keyword id="7345773" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="Hiring-at-the-c-suite-or-CXO-level">hiring at the c-suite or CXO level</keyword> has seen an upward tick with multiple new hires across companies during the past year, with management reshuffles and executives jumping ship between companies and startups. From former Indigo president Aditya Ghosh joining Indian unicorn <keyword id="2550719" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="OYO-Rooms">Oyo Rooms</keyword> to Ajit Mohan of Hotstar going on to head Facebook India, there have been multiple <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/Some-of-Indias-marquee-industry-execs-have-changed-jobs-heres-a-roundup/Abhijit-Bose-Securing-WhatsApp/slideshow/67550453.cms">rejigs </a>in the Indian business world in recent months. In 2019, the sectors that will contribute to the rise in CXOs are BFS, Consumer/FMCG, Retail, e-commerce and Fintech, according to executives of head-hunting firms. “The general elections may change this trend slightly depending on the results, but domestic demand is expected to remain bullish and hence, we will see a similar trend in the latter half of the year as well,” said Agamjeet Dang, Managing Partner, Executive Access. Another executive search expert K Sudarshan managing partner for India, EMA Partners International had told <a href="https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/jobs/cxo-hiring-on-full-steam-as-poll-impact-limited/articleshow/67596357.cms">ET</a> that with banks having cleaned up their books and the credit cycle turning positive, companies plan to augment capacity with considerable fresh capital expenditure. Tech expertise One of the reasons behind the growing demand for CXO-level hiring has been the turnaround of Indian companies to embrace technology and adapt to digital at a fast pace. Many of them lack in-house expertise, prompting demand for strong leadership with technology experience. “This will also result in shifting of job skills, with more low-end jobs moving out, and getting replaced with above skills at mid to senior levels. Even at CXO levels, this skills will continue to remain in demand and drive growth,” said Dang. And It’s not just companies that are hiring tech-driven top management, but also startups are keen on <a href="https://m.economictimes.com/small-biz/startups/newsbuzz/cto-hiring-precedes-funding-in-a-3rd-of-fintech-companies/articleshow/66874937.cms">bringing</a> on board experienced chief technology officers. India still remains an important outsourcing hub for many global companies, requiring experienced top professionals. India’s cost competitiveness, part reason that Dang cites for the increasing number of CXOs in India is the country’s cost competitiveness in providing IT Services, which is approximately three to four times cheaper than the US. “With global economies continuing to struggle with growth rates, attractiveness of India as a outsourcing hub should continue to remain bullish,” he said. Even roles requiring global leadership exposure is also drawing executives from India. In the last year, many Indians took over CXO level positions in companies across the world. Nikkon appointed Sajjan Kumar while Sony put Sunil Nayyar in charge of their local operations both positions which were earlier held by Japanese professionals, reported <a href="https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/jobs/indians-are-top-picks-for-cxo-jobs-at-asian-firms/articleshow/64913965.cms">ET.</a>

Students living both in the UK and abroad have raised questions about the viability of travel and study when Britain eventually returns from lockdown. With one in five students in the UK from overseas, a potential crisis is looming.Subhash Rao wants to join that cohort of students but is "on the fence" about whether to come to Britain due to the high number of coronavirus cases. Living with his family in India's southwestern city of Mysore, 21-year-old Rao tells Business Insider that he is having "a tough time deciding on whether or not to pursue the idea of going abroad."He's eyeing a master's in engineering management at either Birmingham, Greenwich, Nottingham Trent, or Northumbria University. He's considering pausing his <keyword id="6355445" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="60" keywordseo="education">education</keyword>al journey because of the prospect of attending online-only courses. For Rao, paying up to £15,000 ($18,400) in course fees doesn't feel like a good return for a virtual-only experience. He's also relying on an educational loan from an Indian bank to fund his British education. It's a lot to weigh."Paying so much money and attending online classes is rubbish really. But if that's the case I'd be more than happy to defer my offer to the next intake which would probably be in January (2021)." Rao isn't alone. In Chennai, Ajith Kumar hopes to study sports physiotherapy at Cardiff University from September. The reliance on physical contact in the course could be impacted by social distancing rules in classrooms. Cardiff University plans to deposit refunds for international students if they are unable to travel due to continued travel restrictions. Still, Kumar hopes to arrive in the UK if lockdown is released by the fall. "The start date of the end of September is a benefit for preparing ahead."<div type="image" title="cambridge university" height="1836" width="2448" msid="76043705" hostid="261"></div><h2>Virtual learning: revolution or revolt? </h2>Social distancing could leave a lasting impact on the wider university experience, but traditional universities could adapt to new measures by offering online courses. Twenty-six-year-old Yuliya Chystaya from Belarus is concerned about such a move. She's concerned that the master's course in human anatomy she'd like to pursue at Glasgow University in September cannot be done online. "I have to be in a morgue and access MRI scans," she said. "It's not fair to pay hefty fees and then go online. Students don't get as much from an online course versus face-to-face. And there's access to labs and libraries to think about."The University of Cambridge on Wednesday became the <a href="https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/education-52732814">first British university to publicly announce a cancellation</a> of all face-to-face lectures for the next academic year due to the coronavirus. It's a bold decision by the University of Cambridge which could "set a trend for other universities" to follow suit, says Laura Rettie, vice president of global communications at student consultancy firm Studee. "The knock-on effects could leave a lasting impact. International students may choose not to travel to the UK, student accommodation will be left empty, and the money that students bring to the area will be lost."It's not just the injection of capital international students bring to communities, but a wealth of culture to towns and cities across the UK."It's even more pronounced in smaller towns," says Vivienne Stern, director of <keyword id="213664" type="COMPANY" weightage="60" keywordseo="Universities-UK">Universities UK</keyword> International."It's an important injection; we take multiculturalism for granted in London. In smaller cities people get the chance to become familiar with Indian or Chinese students." <h2>With travel restrictions in place, social distancing and the potential cancellation of classes, universities face a potential problem of mass deferrals that could hit their finances. </h2>With just under half of the <a href="https://issuu.com/universitiesuk/docs/higher-education-facts-and-figures-2019/2?ff&amp;hideShareButton=true&amp;backgroundColorFullscreen=%23eeeeee&amp;pageLayout=singlePaget=singlePage">total reported income of UK higher education institutions</a> (£38.2 billion) sourced through tuition fees, mounting concerns from international students could leave a dent in high education finances. Stern says UK universities are budgeting for up to a 20-percent decrease in budgets. With a no-deal Brexit also in the wind, a plummet in the number of international students could see Britain's higher education institutions "financially unviable if the worst predictions are realized." Michael Peak, head of higher education systems research at the British Council, believes Britain's reliance on international students goes beyond tuition fees. "The longer term value we gain through the networks is they bring the friendships they make… it drives future business opportunities for the UK. It's difficult to put a figure on."What attracts students to Britain are its highly collaborative seminars, a practice not always reflected elsewhere. Valeria Villa completed her masters in politics and international relations from Keele University in 2014. Now back at home in Ecuador, she misses the interactive nature of British courses. "How the professors thought was unique. Even if they didn't agree with you they'd listen to you. In Latin America, what the professor says goes," she said. Villa says she'd jump at the chance to return to Britain perhaps to study business, even via online courses. <h2>The switch to online-only courses could be an opportunity to cater to students with differing cultural norms too. </h2>"In some educational cultures, it's not okay to put yourself forward and speak up, jump into a debate or challenge your teachers," says Stern. "They'll be a revolution in the way online learning is delivered," she adds."It's taken a crisis to boost institutions that didn't routinely deliver programs online effectively."Jawad Sabra arrived in the UK from Lebanon in 2013 to study a masters in computing science and has since opened a startup helping international students into sponsored jobs in Britain. He believes they should still come to the UK to network and benefit from free time under social gathering restrictions. "If you're trying to maximize the value from your course, it doesn't matter how you receive that content. What matters is that you receive that knowledge, and you acquire industry skills and build your profile," Sabra said.Back at the British Council, Peak suggests online courses fit in with the "transnational education" UK universities already have in place. "It isn't always just about travelling internationally to study here. It might be studying away for two years and one year at home. This could open minds to new flexible ways. That way students still get international experience, the quality of a UK education, and networks. It's a different way to approach education."<h2>Second generation expats in the UAE already study at educational 'hubs' without leaving their country for a British education.</h2>"It's all about opening people's minds towards adapting to a global pandemic. Perhaps it's more of a choice."What is certain is the stress students now face in making big decisions. Staying in her family home in Belgium, Charlotte Rubin is deciding whether to pursue a scholarship in the US, but has already put down a deposit to study law at the London School of Economics in London. "If its online, it would be stupid because it's all debates, which defeats the purpose.""Why should I go to the UK when I could ultimately study for free in Belgium and the EU?" Rubin asks."The postgrad situation in the back of my mind all the time. The hardest thing is you can't plan." She most certainly isn't alone.Read the original article on <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/international-students-torn-as-uk-universities-go-virtual-2020-5">Business Insider</a>
