EXCLUSIVE STORY
Let us know about your journey as Fitness entrepreneur?
Since childhood, I had a passion for the fitness industry. I used to watch bodybuilders on YouTube and television, observing how they performed their exercises and followed their routines. Eventually, I set up a small gym in my village and started working out myself. Whenever I didn’t know how to perform a particular exercise, I would search for it on YouTube or Google and learn. As I progressed, I also started teaching the local kids. Initially, the children in my village had no knowledge of the gym, but after I set it up, their interest in fitness gradually started to grow.
How tough is reaching people in villages regarding fitness?
Reaching people in villages regarding fitness is quite challenging, especially in the beginning. Creating awareness, providing knowledge, and encouraging them to adapt to something new can be difficult. Many villagers initially believed that fitness was unnecessary because, in the past, their daily activities-like working in the fields and managing household chores-kept them physically active.
However, as time passed and people gained more knowledge about fitness, doubts regarding the gym industry and fitness began to clear. The main issue is that while their physical activity has decreased, their diet remains the same as it was in earlier times. But villages are also modernizing now, and people are gradually realizing that fitness is not just a necessity but an essential part of life.
How important are Health Supplements in fitness industry?
Your journey is inspiring what is your massage to youth especially regarding to fitness?
In today’s time, health supplements have become essential because our diet has become sedentary, providing very little nutrition. People either don’t have time to prepare healthy meals or get bored of eating the same nutritious food. Supplements help fulfill the nutritional gaps that our regular diet cannot provide.
For example, protein is crucial for muscle growth and recovery. BCAAs (Branched-Chain Amino Acids) support muscle repair, while macro and micro nutrients are essential for overall health.
Additionally, supplements play a vital role in bone health, heart health, joint health, muscle recovery, and brain function. They ensure that our body gets the necessary nutrients to stay strong, energetic, and healthy. However, it’s important to take supplements wisely and as per individual needs, preferably under expert guidance.

शॉर्ट फिल्म ‘वाइल्ड फ्लावर्स’ की निर्देशक रमीरा तनेजा इन दिनों चर्चा में हैं। उनसे लिए गए इंटरव्यू के अंश…
सवाल :- इसकी प्रेरणा कहाँ से मिली
रमीरा तनेजा:- मैंने विभिन्न फिल्म निर्माताओं की कई शार्ट फिल्में देखी हैं, और मैंने देखा है कि उनमें से कई जटिल पात्रों या बौद्धिक विषयों पर ध्यान केंद्रित करती हैं। मुझे लगा कि परिवार के अनुकूल शॉर्ट फिल्मों में एक कमी है – कुछ सरल लेकिन प्रभावशाली, एक सार्थक संदेश को एक संबंधित तरीके से देना। समाज में सब कुछ नकारात्मकता के इर्द-गिर्द नहीं घूमता; कई अच्छे और दयालु लोग हैं, और मैं इसे उजागर करना चाहती थी। दुनिया खूबसूरत है, और इसे ऐसा बनाने वाले लोग भी।
सवाल :- इसकी कहानी और इसके मुख्य विषय के बारे में बताएं
रमीरा तनेजा:- वाइल्ड फ्लावर्स लक्ष्यहीन युवाओं के एक ग्रुप के इर्द-गिर्द घूमती है, जिनके पास जीवन में दिशा और मार्गदर्शन की कमी है। जब एक बुजुर्ग दंपति, अर्जुन और गीता, उनके पड़ोस में रहने आते हैं, तो वे शुरू में इन युवाओं के व्यवहार से परेशान होते हैं। हालाँकि, जब उन्हें यह समझ में आता है कि ये युवा अच्छे दिल वाले अनाथ हैं, लेकिन उनके काम गलत हैं, तो उनका नज़रिया बदल जाता है। घटनाओं की एक श्रृंखला के माध्यम से – विशेष रूप से जब लड़कों में से एक, करण, अनजाने में गीता की मदद करता है – दंपति उन्हें सलाह देने का फैसला करता है। उनका समर्थन न केवल करण के जीवन को बदलता है, बल्कि अन्य युवाओं के जीवन को भी बदल देता है, जो दयालुता और सलाह के गहन प्रभाव को दर्शाता है।
सवाल :- आप दर्शकों को इस फिल्म से क्या संदेश देना चाहती हैं? रमीरा तनेजा:- वाइल्ड फ्लावर्स का मुख्य संदेश सरल लेकिन गहरा है – दयालुता के छोटे-छोटे कामों की शक्ति को कभी कम मत समझो। दूसरों की मदद करना, चाहे छोटे-छोटे तरीकों से ही क्यों न हो, अच्छाई एक लहर जैसा प्रभाव पैदा कर सकती है। लोग, स्वभाव से, स्वाभाविक रूप से अच्छे होते हैं, और अगर उन्हें सही समर्थन और अवसर दिए जाएँ, तो वे अपनी क्षमता को सकारात्मक बदलाव की ओर मोड़ सकते हैं।
सवाल :- क्या फिल्मांकन के दौरान कहानी विकसित हुई?
रमीरा तनेजा:- इसकी कहानी मूल रूप से अनिल क्रिस्टी द्वारा लिखी गई थी, लेकिन यह फिल्मांकन के दौरान स्वाभाविक रूप से विकसित हुई। हमें लोकेशन की कमी, एक्टर की उपलब्धता और कहानी के प्रवाह के आधार पर सेट पर सुधार करना पड़ा। कहानी का सार वही रहा, लेकिन वास्तविक समय में अनुकूलन ने परफॉर्मेंस और कहानी कहने में प्रामाणिकता जोड़ दी।
सवाल :- प्रमुख निर्देशकों की सहायक रहने और एक फीचर फिल्म का सह-निर्माण करने के बाद, आपने अपने करियर के इस चरण में एक लघु फिल्म बनाने का विकल्प क्यों चुना?
रमीरा तनेजा:- मैं फिल्म निर्माण के व्यवसाय को बहुत अच्छी तरह से समझती हूं, और मेरा मानना है कि कहानी कहने को विभिन्न माध्यमों में अनुकूलित किया जाना चाहिए। नए प्लेटफ़ॉर्म के उदय और दर्शकों की बदलती प्राथमिकताओं के साथ, कोई भी माध्यम बहुत बड़ा या बहुत छोटा नहीं है। लघु फिल्में हमें संक्षिप्त प्रारूप में एक शक्तिशाली संदेश देने की अनुमति देती हैं, और इस मामले में, वाइल्ड फ्लावर्स केवल 6 मिनट और 20 सेकंड में अपना संदेश खूबसूरती से व्यक्त करती है।
सवाल :- इस लघु फिल्म को बनाने में सबसे बड़ी चुनौती क्या थी?
रमीरा तनेजा:- सबसे बड़ी चुनौती समय थी। मैं अनिल क्रिस्टी से तब मिली जब वे फिल्म के अन्य अभिनेताओं त्रेहान और बबीता के साथ भारत में थे। वे दूर के परिवार से मिलने के लिए लंदन से सिर्फ़ दो दिनों के लिए आए थे। जो एक सामान्य चर्चा के रूप में शुरू हुआ, वह 24 घंटे की फिल्म निर्माण चुनौती में बदल गया। हमें लंदन के लिए रवाना होने से एक दिन पहले फिल्म का कॉन्सेप्ट बनाना था, शूट करना था और संपादित करना था। लगभग बिना किसी बजट के, हमने इस कहानी को जीवंत करने के लिए सद्भावना, वास्तविक स्थानों और गैर-अभिनेताओं पर भरोसा किया। यह एक गहन लेकिन पुरस्कृत अनुभव था।
सवाल :- आपकी फिल्म अब तक कहां प्रदर्शित हुई है?
रमीरा तनेजा:- फिल्म बिल्कुल नई है, और हमने हाल ही में बॉबी वत्स के प्लेटफ़ॉर्म क्रिएटिवकर्मा.इन पर इसका प्रीमियर करने का फैसला किया है। पहली स्क्रीनिंग 14 फरवरी, वैलेंटाइन डे पर होगी, क्योंकि फिल्म उम्र, पृष्ठभूमि या परिस्थितियों से परे प्यार और दयालुता का जश्न मनाती है।
सवाल :- एक फिल्म निर्देशक के रूप में आपके लिए आगे क्या है? क्या आप किसी नए प्रोजेक्ट पर काम कर रहे हैं?
रमीरा तनेजा:- मैं वर्तमान में थ्रिलर, रोमांस और एक्शन सहित विभिन्न शैलियों में कई स्क्रिप्ट विकसित कर रही हूं। मैं जल्द ही और अधिक विवरण साझा करने की उम्मीद करती हूं, और उम्मीद है कि निकट भविष्य में मेरी अगली परियोजना की घोषणा की जाएगी।
सवाल :- आप महत्वाकांक्षी लघु फिल्म फिल्म निर्माताओं को क्या सलाह देंगी?
रमीरा तनेजा:- अपने विजन के प्रति सच्चे रहें। ऐसी फिल्में बनाएं जो आपको व्यक्तिगत रूप से प्रभावित करें क्योंकि प्रामाणिकता आपके काम में झलकती है। एक फिल्म निर्माता को खुद और अपने शिल्प दोनों के प्रति ईमानदार होना चाहिए। साथ ही, अपने पास उपलब्ध संसाधनों का उपयोग करें- बाधाएं अक्सर रचनात्मक सफलताओं की ओर ले जा सकती हैं। सही अवसर का इंतजार न करें; जो आपके पास है, उसी से शुरुआत करें और कुछ सार्थक बनाएं।
निर्देशक रमीरा तनेजा की शॉर्ट फिल्म ‘वाइल्ड फ्लावर्स’ ऐसे युवाओं की कहानी है, जिनके पास लक्ष्य नहीं है

Art Continuum: A Journey Through Artistic Expression
Visual Art forges connections between knowledge, culture, and expression. While its visual impact remains undeniable, the true catalyst for artistic evolution lies in the platforms that nurture creativity. It is within these dynamic spaces that emerging talent finds its voice and established artists receive due recognition.
With this philosophy, the Artival Foundation presents Art Continuum, an ambitious, nationwide exhibition that fosters artistic inclusivity. Started by Satish Patil and Sharad Gurav in 2018, Director Prashant Kashikar & Dr. Jayesh Dakre the foundation serves as a non-commercial sanctuary for artists, championing both contemporary and indigenous art forms. With a commitment to amplifying voices often overshadowed in mainstream narratives—particularly folk and tribal artists—Artival provides a vital space for artistic exchange and appreciation.
Having begun its journey at the Visual Art Gallery, India Habitat Centre, New Delhi in 2024, Art Continuum will embark on a national tour, celebrating the diverse artistic landscapes of India. The upcoming Mumbai leg at the Nehru Centre marks a significant milestone in this journey. This prestigious venue will host a compelling selection of works by contemporary visual artists, uniting urban and rural artistic expressions under one roof.
Beyond an exhibition, Art Continuum embodies an ethos of accessibility, cultural preservation, and philanthropy. A portion of the proceeds from artwork sales will be donated to the Cancer Patients Aid Association (CPAA), reinforcing Artival’s commitment to social impact. The show invites art enthusiasts, collectors, and the public to engage in a transformative experience that bridges tradition and modernity. As Art Continuum arrives in Mumbai, it reaffirms the profound, enduring relationship between humanity and artistic expression—a celebration of creativity, heritage, and collective consciousness.

Timing: 11am to 7pm

Fiona Graham Rouse Art Lover and the Wife of Consul General of New Zealand), Smt. Sarala N. (Managing Director, Artquest Art Gallery(AAG).
Urban Whispers: The Cityscapes of Ajit Deswandikar Ajit Deswandikar’s upcoming solo show offers a poignant glimpse into the heart of India’s urban existence. With a masterful hand, he captures the hustle and quietude of city streets, where life unfolds in layers. His subdued palette of whites and greys mirrors the muted tones of urban chaos. Yet, amidst the quiet monotones, a splash of vibrant color breathes life into his compositions. Rickshaw pullers pause mid-journey, their silhouettes etched against crumbling buildings. Vendors gather in bustling markets, their movements merging into a rhythmic urban dance. Streams of water wind their way through the city, reflecting the gritty skyline. Tall, looming structures frame the horizon, marking the city’s relentless growth. The skylines Deswandikar paints are not mere backdrops but protagonists in their own right. His work speaks of the fragile balance between progress and the remnants of the past. Through restrained hues, he conveys the resilience of those who inhabit these spaces. A lone streak of red or yellow symbolizes hope amid the greys of urban monotony. The artist’s brush strokes are deliberate yet fluid, echoing the city’s dynamism. Every frame is a narrative, alive with the pulse of humanity and its struggles. Deswandikar’s cityscapes are not just visuals but a sensory experience. You can almost hear the honking rickshaws and the chatter of street vendors. The juxtaposition of stillness and motion defines his artistic language. In his work, modernity coexists with traces of a simpler, bygone era. Ajit Deswandikar invites us to pause and reflect on our relationship with urban spaces. His paintings remind us that beneath the grey, every city holds a vivid, untold story.
