I am not surprised that Bihar Museum has been ranked ninth globally and first in Asia in Worth a Journey’s World’s 100 Best Museums 2026 list. It’s truly magical.
I had the opportunity to visit recently and was completely bowled over by its beautiful spaces, remarkable sculptures and the thoughtful way in which Bihar’s rich history and culture have been brought alive.
Walking through the galleries, I felt how beautifully a museum can connect us to our past and make history engaging, accessible and deeply personal. India deserves many more world-class museums, places where our extraordinary heritage can spark curiosity, inspire pride and nurture a love of learning for generations to come. A wonderful achievement for Bihar. Do visit and experience its magic in person.

Manoj Bajpayee says Bollywood being a fraternity ‘bullsh*t’: ‘No actor happy to see other succeed’.
"There is no fraternity as such. The biggest illusion is that the industry is a fraternity. It isn’t like a family. All the offices are built separately, nobody parties with anyone, nobody calls anyone when they like their film. No actor feels happy on seeing someone else succeed. No director thinks of himself lesser than the other director. No production house is happy to see any other production house earn more money. So, remove all these things from your mind.”

Aaj Anant Ambani Bhai ki Jio IPO listing speech dekhi. One thing that stood out: the way he connected business with Indian traditions.
“Business is pooja. And every pooja ends with prasad.”
He compared the exchange bell to a temple bell, began with “Jai Shree Krishna” and dedicated the day to Lord Ganesh ji, Shrinath ji, Balaji and Bharat Mata.
A corporate milestone, expressed in a distinctly Indian way.
