Streaming service <keyword id="2189512" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="prime-video" source="Orion">Prime Video</keyword> on Monday announced that the Tamil version of its "<keyword id="2028715" type="General" weightage="100" keywordseo="modern-love" source="Orion">Modern Love</keyword>" anthology series will premiere on May 18. This is the third Indian adaptation of "Modern Love", the internationally acclaimed Original anthology helmed by John Carney, following "Modern Love Mumbai" (Hindi) and "Modern Love Hyderabad" (Tamil). "<keyword id="13784653" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="modern-love-chennai" source="Orion">Modern Love Chennai</keyword>" brings together six brilliant creators of Indian cinema Bharathiraja, Balaji Sakthivel, Rajumurugan, Krishnakumar Ramakumar, Akshay Sundher, and Thiagarajan Kumararaja. According to the makers, the upcoming six-episode anthology presents "a bouquet of compelling and unique love stories set in the city of Chennai that explore relationships, push boundaries, and open minds". After the successful launch of "Modern Love Mumbai" and "Modern Love Hyderabad", Aparna Purohit, head of India Originals, Prime Video, said the streamer is excited to bring the third Indian edition of the well-acclaimed international franchise, "Modern Love", to the service. "At Prime Video, we are constantly working towards bringing locally rooted stories that have a universal appeal. 'Modern Love Chennai' celebrates and explores love in all its beauty, joy, and glory, hand-in-hand with the intricacies and complexities that go with the emotion. It has been wonderful collaborating with Thiagarajan Kumararaja and all the other wonderful directors to tell these heart-warming stories that explore the city's culture and nuances," Purohit said in a statement. Kumararaja, creator of the series and writer-director of one of the episodes "Ninaivo Oru Paravai", said "Modern Love Chennai" was an interesting challenge since love stories were never his cup of tea. "It has been a pleasure to partner with Prime Video to bring the latest Indian edition to the viewers. With these stories, we have explored and celebrated the old-world charm of the city, which remains rooted in a distinct blend of tradition and modernity. All the stories in this anthology take us through the journey of exploring the very complicated, and yet very simple, emotion-love-in all its eclectic forms," he added. "Ninaivo Oru Paravai", directed by Kumararaja, features Wamiqa and PB, and has music composed by veteran director Ilaiyaraaja. Ilaiyaraaja has also scored for "Margazhi", directed by Akshay Sundher, and Bharathiraja's "Paravai Kootil Vaazhum Maangal". Rajumurugan has directed "Lalagunda Bommaigal", an episode that has music composed by Sean Roldan, and features Sri Gouri Priya, Vasudevan Murali, and Vasundhara. Director Balaji Sakthivel's chapter is titled "Imaigal", starring Ashok Selvan and T.J.

<keyword id="3658" type="COUNTRY" weightage="100" keywordseo="India">India</keyword> is a beautiful place to live, but it is an even more beautiful place to explore. While it is true that every city of the country has something to offer, we list down the 4 <keyword id="381066" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="metro-cities">metro cities</keyword> of India and the places that you should never miss when you visit these cities. 
 
Delhi 
 
I asked my soul, what is Delhi? She replied: The world is the body and Delhi, its soul. 
~Mirza Ghalib 
 
Starting with the capital city, there is a lot to explore in Delhi and its surroundings. It is a perfect mix of ancient culture and modern infrastructure. The places that would make you feel like you have roamed every street of Delhi are: 
· India Gate and Rashtrapati Bhavan 
· Lal Quila, Chandni Chowk Gurdwara Sis Ganj Sahib and Jama Masjid 
· Humayun’s Tomb, Nizamuddin Dargah and Lodhi Garden 
· Gurdwara Bangla Sahib and Sacred House Cathedral Church 
· ISKCON Temple and Lotus Temple 
· Hauz Khas Village, Hauz Khas Fort and Deer Park 
· Akshardham Temple 
 
Mumbai 
 
The thing about Mumbai is you go five yards and all of human existence is revealed. It's an incredible cavalcade of life, and I love that 
~Julian Sands 
 
Coming to the financial capital of the country, Mumbai offers a lot to see in a short period of time. The top few of them are: 
· Marine Drive and Gateway of India 
· Juhu Beach and Radha Ras Bihari Temple 
· The Flora Fountain and Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus 
· Film City 
· Haji Ali, Mahalaxmi Temple and Siddhi Vinayak Temple 
 
And needless to say, a trip to Mumbai would be incomplete without a trip in the Mumbai local, the lifeline of the city. 
 
Kolkata 
 
It was in Calcutta that I learnt about true warmth; about simple human decency; about love and friendship; about emotions and caring; about truth and honesty. 
~Vir Sanghvi 
 
The city of joy as the nation calls it, Kolkata is known for its art and culture, and for the way that it changes you for good. Here are the few places that need to be discovered when you visit Kolkata. 
· St. Paul's Cathedral and Rabindra Sadan 
· Howrah Bridge and Victoria Memorial 
· Prinsep Ghat and Rabindra Sarobar 
 
Chennai 
 
I love Chennai because it's one of the few cities that makes you feel at home. Chennai has been very welcoming, the people are great and hospitable and our rice, sambar, potato fry is unbeatable! 
~Sidney Sladen 
 
The home to culture and hospitable strangers, Chennai is the least-explored metro city of India, even by frequent travelers and bloggers. However, the city has a charm of its own, and the following places in Chennai add on to the charm. 
· Vivekananda House 
· Victory War Memorial 
· St. George's Fort 
· Marina Beach 
· Mahalingapuram Sree Ayyappa Temple 
· The Big Mosque

<keyword id="3658" type="General" weightage="100" keywordseo="india" source="Orion">India</keyword>'s coal imports increased by 30 per cent to 162.46 million tonnes in the 2022-23 financial year against 124.99 MT in the year-ago period, according to a report. The import of coking coal rose 5.44 per cent to 54.46 MT over 51.65 MT in FY22, mjunction said in its latest report. In March alone, the non-coking coal import stood at 13.88 MT against 12.61 MT in the same month last year. Coking coal imports were 3.96 MT against 4.76 MT imported in March 2022. India is among the top five coal-producing countries in the world. However, some parts of its coal requirement are met through imports as the country is also among the major consumers of the dry fuel. For coking coal -- a key raw material used in steel making -- the country remains heavily dependent on imports. "The persistently high demand for steam coal in India coupled with the weakening of seaborne prices led to increased volumes during March. This trend is likely to continue in coming months in view of the above-normal average temperature expected this summer," mjunction <keyword id="17354076" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="md-ceo-vinaya-varma" source="Orion">MD &amp; CEO Vinaya Varma</keyword> said. Along with other varieties of coal like anthracite, pulverised coal injection (PCI coal), met coke and pet coke, the total imports in FY23 were at 249.06 MT, up from 200.71 MT FY22, a rise of over 24 per cent.

Winter or summer, day or night, casual or formal, <keyword id="51374" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="Denims">denims</keyword> are India’s go to outfit for Indians. 
 To measure the varying use of denims across demographics and how Indians use their favorite pair of <keyword id="6403106" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Jeans">jeans</keyword>, Westside conducted the ‘Denim Survey’ across 6 Major cities in India. With a sample size of 1200 respondents, the survey questions ranged from how often Indians snooze in their denims to how they wash them, and their spending habits when it comes to picking up a pair of jeans. 
 
<a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/the-tale-of-tata-nullore-estate-coffee-that-made-it-to-the-starbucks-reserve-in-seattle/articleshow/57792529.cms">ALSO READ: The tale of Tata Nullore Estate coffee that made it to the Starbucks Reserve in Seattle</a> 
 
The survey surprisingly concludes that denim choices of men and women rest on similar tangents and are free of gender biases. 
 
As per findings, 39.46% women and 41.76% men own 4 to 6 pairs of jeans, and both spend between INR 1,000 to 2,000 on their denims. 
Hyderabad takes the cake when it comes to washing their denims, since it is the only metro where people wash denims once every week (45.59%) compared to other cities. 
 
For long, denims are caught in the fashion debate of being slotted as either smart formals or smart casuals. The survey found that 47% of overall respondents wear denims every day. 
 
The survey also throws up a shocking result that suggests that 62% above the age of 33 years prefer wearing denims to work. 
For instance, an exciting slot of findings infer that while an overall majority of respondents say that they opt for a straight fitting pair of jeans, there are a few contrasting opinions when it comes to modernizing denim-wear. A solid 9% of respondents from Delhi prefer to wear ripped jeans, while only 1.85% from Chennai and 6.03% of them from Mumbai approve it as a desired trend.

 As for the love-hate relationship we have with bellbottoms, which have made a comeback this season, the style has found takers only in Pune, with 5.41% Puneites. As for the classic denim on denim look, <keyword id="6354925" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Kolkata">Kolkata</keyword> leads the way with 74.6% respondents preferring this look. 
 
While the majority is usually an indicator of conclusiveness, the minority in this space has led us to observe a kinship amongst cities with respect to the kind of jeans these cities are adorning. 
 
There are territorial tendencies when it comes to your favorite pair of Denims, with over 77% respondents saying that they will not share their jeans with anyone. As for ‘how jeans are treated’, overall a whopping 46.1% from the 6 cities where the research was conducted have admitted to snoozing in their denims.

Shah Rukh Khan tops IMDb's list of most popular Indian stars of 2023

Just as the world was celebrating the onset of 2014, which was to change many things for India with general elections to be held close to the middle of the year; some things were fast changing for an Indian city. This cosmopolitan space, most often referred to as the IT capital of India, was setting up its upmarket area for a date with technology. 
 

	Was it love at first sight? Yes, and looks like the courtship is doing a lot of good to technology and the city too. The name of the city, as you may have guessed by now, is <keyword id="6354321" type="CITY" weightage="100" keywordseo="Bengaluru">Bengaluru</keyword>. The first ever city to have opened up to the tech sector many decades ago, also had the honour of being a fit place to experiment with free Wi-Fi hotspots being installed at one of the prime locations. Calling it the Times Square of the city may be a cliché but hey, we love it!<o:p></o:p>

	Mahatma Gandhi road, popularly known as MG Road for those who are familiar with it, became the first space to open free Wi-Fi for anyone in the central area, allowing the browser a time frame of three hours, and download up to 50 MB of data. The thrilled users said the browsing speed made them more than happy since it was not patchy at all, much to the chagrin of those who wouldn’t believe that government can do anything right!<o:p></o:p>

	Now that the first spot has been taken, the race is on for the second place. The competition is between Pune and Hyderabad. And things have gotten to a very interesting level. Hyderabad is somewhat caught in the Telangana web and may heed to the pressure of politics which may ignore the modern image of the city to sorting out its own innards. As far as Pune is concerned, things would be a cakewalk since the city has already turned into a hot destination of IT companies since last few years. But hey, what’s wrong with dreaming and hoping to see it being a reality?<o:p></o:p>

	Futuristically, Pune wouldn’t want to lose out on this opportunity to create a ‘suave’ image for self since Bangalore is reaching near-saturation point as far as accommodating IT companies is concerned. This apart, the central leadership including Prime Minister Narendra Modi, has been looking at creating alternative cities which are as good as any cosmopolitan city for new businesses to grow in.<o:p></o:p>

	What would be a better chance than introducing <keyword id="107178" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="100" keywordseo="WiFi">WiFi</keyword> to the people of smaller cities? <keyword id="6357247" type="PERSON" weightage="100" keywordseo="Internet">Internet</keyword> penetration into Indian cities has been growing at a fast pace. To leverage on this neo-economical growth, India needs to open up to the demand by its citizens, following the trend of internet usage.

	Among the cities, analysts say those with WiFi connectivity project a professional image for businesses to grow roots in. By that count, Bangalore, Delhi, Pune, Mumbai, Kolkata, and Chennai have decent WiFi hotspots in some prominent areas. While some cities have kept it free, some have opted to offer paid services.<o:p></o:p>

	Every other Indian state, including Gujarat, are vying to be in the ‘hotspot’ area starting with bigger cities, and move in to cover almost all places where internet connectivity is good and towers can be installed without causing any ecological harm.<o:p></o:p>

	Private companies like TATA and Vodafone have evinced interest in setting up the infrastructure for WiFi connectivity in Indian cities. TATA plans to have 3000-4000 WiFi hotspots in cities before the end of 2015, making it an ambitious project on part of the company.<o:p></o:p>

Wi-Fi Hotspots:
Internet Penetrates Deeper Into Indian Psyche

In 2006, two freshmen from IIT-Delhi gathered enough spunk to knock at the door of Kalyanaraman Srinivasan, Amazon’s <keyword id="2463621" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="global-technology-head">global technology head</keyword> for retail, who was in India to set up a development center at Chennai and a regular at the Bangalore office of the global ecommerce biggie. The duo requested fifteen minutes of ‘we-time’ as they bubbled over a few ideas they considered path-breaking. They wanted to know which one they should focus on. “I took 1.5 seconds and said if they really wanted to be entrepreneurs, they must replicate Amazon in India and be patient about it,” says Srinivasan, in a southern accent cradling a Midwestern twang. The duo turned out to be Sachin Bansal and Binny Bansal who founded Indian ecommerce giant Flipkart the very next year, recently raising a billion dollars from investors to take on Amazon’s Indian foray. 
 Srinivasan’s advice bode well for the youngsters and made them very rich indeed but the operative word was “patient”. Despite zero signs of profitability in the ecommerce eddies, Srinivasan remains positive. After all, more than 20% of the GDP of the world comes from emerging markets with barely 3% of capital investment therein. In other words, there are not many tradable liquid securities out here, he reasons, adding that companies like Flipkart, Snapdeal and <keyword id="761157" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="20" keywordseo="Infibeam">Infibeam</keyword>, where he has personally invested, will raise the tide. 
 
“The rising tide will raise all the boats first and every company will get irrational valuations but those who focus on customer experience in the long term, will stay there and go higher, and those who don’t, will fall off,” says Srinivasan. As a precursor, he points to the dotcom boom in the US in 1999-2000. “Trillions of dollars went into valuations there but the customer experience only got better…so the irrationality of valuations is relative,” he points out, observing the Indian ecommerce market potential to be in the $100-200 range and with only $6 billion active market, excluding train and flight tickets, Flipkart’s valuation of $5 billion makes perfect sense. 
 Today, the 44-year-old Kalyanaraman Srinivasan is Chief Operating Officer, <keyword id="384914" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Groupon">Groupon</keyword>, a portmanteau for group coupon, and at one time, the fastest growing company in the world that grew from $1 million in seed money to $1 billion in two years. On a whistlestop tour covering Korea, Hong Kong, Singapore and India, he met up with CD in the Delhi office of Groupon, housed in a rundown commercial complex in the southern part of the capital city. That’s where, over cuppa and crackers, he deconstructs the journey of a 15-year-old from poverty to power, politics at the workplace, lessons from Sam Walton, problem-solving from Amazon to startups, and how somewhere in between, he came to be known as Kal Raman. 
 
Education is salvation 
 
Born and raised in Mannarkoil in Tamil Nadu’s Tirunelveli district, down south of Chennai, Raman’s father, a tehsildar, passed away when he was all of 15. The family of four siblings struggled through the odds on his mother’s monthly pension of Rs 420. She was, however, uncompromising on her children’s education. That explains how liberally Raman uses this phrase—“Education is salvation.” 
 
After high school, Raman got through both medical and engineering college. While the medical college stood in his district, he opted for engineering in Chennai where he knew nobody. “I wanted to see how far I can fly,” he reminisces. Till today, Raman has a knack of making the tougher choice. It’s as if he’s conditioned that way. “The longer it takes to get something, the longer it stays with you….most of the things that look easy, are not good in the long term,” he says. 
 
<div style="page-break-after: always;">
	&#xa0;</div>
Not quite okay, Tata 
 
Raman’s first job was in Mumbai with Tata Consulting Engineers, where he landed up in slippers on his first day at work, sending his boss into a fit of rage. Upon hearing his story, he was not only given money to buy shoes but also fixed up at his friend’s Mumbai residence. Within a month, his boss sent him to Bangalore where he computerized the entire office administration. Thus started Raman’s steady rise in the world of information technology, and he did a lot of learning on his own, including ‘C’ programming. Just as he was about to get confirmed, he gave in his resignation since he signed up with TCS at Chennai. As a code jock, he ended up in Edinburgh servicing the Scottish Equitable Insurance Company and that’s where the first signs of friction with his boss became evident. 
 
As Raman deep-dove into the world of insurance, he figured the mathematical model of the company was completely flawed—if the company had more than 15% reimbursement, the resultant number would be a big negative, while the marketing documents of the company said that people would get 23% redemption. He tried explaining it to his boss but got cold shouldered. 
 
Raman would come in late and work well into the night. Being the last to leave, he was noticed by someone by the name Chris, who asked him why he stayed up so late despite being a programmer from an outsourced company. Upon being told of a questionable business model, Chris got curious and stayed up with Raman till 2 am one morning. A few days later, as Raman came in to work, his boss was pacing up anddown the room and glanced at him menacingly. He said that the European general manager of TCS had been called by the company and they were all going to see the management and that it concerned him. “If I were you, I would have packed my bags for India,” the boss said. Eventually, the trio entered a room with suits and at the head of the table, Chris sat in bespoke CEO attire. Before a word was uttered, Raman’s boss started making excuses and virtually disowned him, labeling him as a rotten apple in the TCS pantheon of “good and loyal workers”. That’s when Chris got up and silenced him, explaining why TCS needed to hire more people like Raman. “What my CPO and CIO couldn’t solve, a 22-yearold has done, and I thought it to be pertinent to acknowledge it in front of his bosses,” he said. 
 
The American Dream 
 For Raman, there was no looking back. With the help of Chris, he applied to companies in the US and got through <keyword id="46675" type="CITY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Wal-Mart">Wal-Mart</keyword>, where he rose to become the giant retailer’s technology director within a year. In fact, he admittedly got promoted 18 times that year from the lowest employee to the top rung, catching the eye of Wal-Mart promoters Sam and Rob Walton. He also picked up the invaluable lessons of long-term planning and customer-centricity from Sam Walton, the father of modern retail. That’s where Raman learnt business execution under his mentor, Doyle Graham, who again passed away at 45, exactly the age his father had died. Orphaned twice, Raman had no will to forge on. He hung around for six months before signing up with Blockbuster, the biggest DVD rental company then and as he predicted its doom, which eventually paved the way for newbies like Netflix, he started out afresh as CEO of drugstore.com. At Drugstore, he had an enviable board of directors, which included among others, Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen, Bill Gates’ wife and philanthropist Melissa Gates, Starbucks’ Howard Schultz and Amazon’s Jeff Bezos. 
 
<div style="page-break-after: always;">
	&#xa0;</div>
He ran Drugstore through the tumultuous 9/11 years as corporate America took a beating and share prices tumbled. When his recovery plan was rejected by the board, Raman knew it was time. However, Bezos sought him out and wanted him to go to Seattle to take a shot at some of the problems at Amazon. Raman, of course, chose the toughest one to crack—the non-media businesses were growing faster than media and Amazon was losing $200 million worth of free cash flow back then. He identified the problem and automated the entire retail infrastructure to solve it at one go. At that juncture, there were 6,000 people working at Amazon and he had 3,000 under him. Mission accomplished, Raman moved on to start his own venture Global Scholar with venture capitalist Michael Milken until selling out in 2010 and signing up as COO of Groupon in May 2012. “Now I joined Groupon when everyone wrote the company off and I love being the underdog,” he says. 
 
Galvanizing Groupon 
 
In 2012, Groupon’s international business was crumbling and it was left to Raman to steady the ship. Today, along with the domestic US business, the international division is in the black. “We are building a category, we are not building a company…. what Groupon is now, Amazon was in 2001,” he says. 
 
As he pumps in adrenaline to the business, Raman has a roadmap. He’s applying all that he learnt at Wal-Mart, keeping the merchant community engaged and customers happy by offering the lowest prices and an efficient delivery mechanism. Will he be able to pull it off? “We’re more worried about the long term and so we’re trying to get more efficient by passing off the savings to our merchants and customers so that they become more loyal to Groupon and check our website first before they go for any other transactions….we have about 1,600 people in technology to do that out of 12,000 worldwide,” he says. At $2.5 billion revenue and with zero debt, Raman’s optimism is well-founded. And while valuations like $8 billion scorch the terrace, he maintains a straight face and waits for the tide to raise the boats. What then, after he steers Groupon to the safe shores of supra-growth and profitability? “I’ll do something very big in education in India, with or without Groupon,” he says.
