"When I started doing research, almost everyone remembers a few things about the hijack, and what all happened during the process. I realised it is a very complex story and a lot of things happened in those seven days and not many people know about it. "I met a lot of officers, passengers, the pilot, and there was a lot more to share. We have put it all in the show... We had to make it factually correct and yet dramatic and engaging...

 Thappad — starring Pavail Gulati, Dia Mirza, Ram Kapoor along — highlights how Indian society has normalised the concept of domestic violence.

 India’s national capital Delhi has been gasping for air as Air Quality Index went beyond 1000 in several parts of the city. As air turned hazardous, schools closed down, corporates offered work from home options and Delhi government implemented the odd-even scheme. Several celebrities in India like Priyanka Chopra, Dia Mirza – too have spoken about the toxic air in Delhi on their social media pages. Last Sunday, a Citizen Mass Meet was organized in Gurgaon to demand corrective measures to fight air pollution. The protestors were hoping to find an amicable solution to stubble burning, unauthorized construction, and burning of coal and wood. They were also suggesting options like improving public transportation – and expanding green cover. Recently, Indian ride hailing unicorn Ola and global tech giant Microsoft too inked a partnership to measure real-time street air quality index in Delhi.
