8 Reasons why Dumbphones are a Smart Choice for Your Child's Well-being Smartphones are debasing human childhood in profound ways. Children raised on a steady diet of gaming, videos, and porn (for boys) or social media and video content (for girls) become malformed pseudo-adults.. I’ve observed their disastrous effects as a teacher over the past five years, and as a parent, I am concerned about where we’re all headed. One of the best articulations of their effects and dangers can be found in the 2023 best-seller The Anxious Generation by @JonHaidt. A lot needs to be said about the dangers of smartphones for kids under 16. I’ve strived to build a compelling argument, and I hope it prompts you to reflect deeply on this pressing issue of our times.

@rickykej @AdityaDharFilms Superbly articulated, Ricky ! Echo these sentiments 🚀

Yes! Aditya Dhar @AdityaDharFilms absolutely nailed the sequel. Dhurandhar 2 is a masterpiece. Longer than the previous installment, but it felt shorter. In both films Aditya has created a tone which I call a mix of Ridley Scott's Epic-Realism & Quentin Tarantino's flamboyant action. The last installment was more Ridley Scott (Body Of Lies, Black Hawk Down, etc), this one is more Tarantino (Kill Bill, Pulp Fiction, etc). Aditya is the only director on Earth who has managed to effectively strike this impossible balance and create films that are meaningful and immensely entertaining. The opening sequence is the most gut-wrenching ever in Indian cinema.. and every scene that follows, builds satisfyingly to the climax. This time there are a few shocking twists and turns that keep you guessing. Every character showcased in the first movie, has now been developed to the max, to the level that only a webseries with over 10 seasons can achieve. The dialogue is taut, perfect editing, camera work is impeccable and the VFX is invisible. The music by Shaswat Sachdev is just insanely unique and spectacular. As a composer myself, there is a lot one can learn from him. Ranveer Singh delivered his best performance ever, and this film will catapult him to legend status. All side-plots and themes introduced in the first installment are concluded here, and in the most gratifying way. There are pockets in this film that feel like a blow to the gut, and there are scenes which feel as jubiliant, as the celebration of a cricket world-cup final victory. Aditya Dhar is without any doubt, the finest director in India. A masterful director who has the best understanding of the rules of cinema, and effectively breaks each and every one of them. A director obcessed with perfection and delivering an experience that is cerebral, fun, entertaining, introspective and satisfying to the highest degree imaginable. Watch Dhurandhar: The Revenge in the largest screen you can find. Like the last film, I am certain that this time too there will be the few who will deliberately try and maliciously destroy this film. Will NOT work. This film is on its way to become one of the greatest ever, and certainly the most successful, with no doubt in my mind. @DhurandharFans @AdityaRajKaul @yamigautam @shashwatology @RanveerOfficial @jiostudios @JioHotstar @spotifyindia @LokeshDharB62

@erbmjha Well said, Bala.

Most of you are completely missing this part of #Dhurandhar2 , where Aditya Dhar very deliberately shows the misuse of “Sar Tan Se Juda” slogans and blasphemy rumours, and how such narratives are weaponised. He literally builds a sequence where ISI-backed elements exploit fake allegations to get an innocent man killed, just to serve their agenda. Tell me this isn’t relevant in today’s time, especially after what we saw post the Nupur Sharma episode. And that’s just the beginning. He then moves to Punjab : exposing the drug crisis, the systematic brainwashing, and how separatist sentiments like Khalistan are kept alive and fuelled. It’s not surface-level commentary, it’s layered and uncomfortable, the kind most filmmakers avoid. Then comes the ISI–terror–gangster–drug nexus angle extending into UP, connecting dots that many pretend don’t exist. The Atiq Ahmed connection. The Dawood Ibrahim part. This isn’t just storytelling. This is a full-blown mapping of the internal and external threats India is dealing with today. Bold, unapologetic, and brutally relevant. Very few filmmakers have the clarity or courage to do what Aditya Dhar has done here.

Piyush Goyal meeting Anduril CEO to expand their footprint under Make in India tells you everything. The commerce minister is selling defence access to a US firm while Indian drone startups still wait months for trial orders. The US runs its defence industry by giving its own startups large contracts first, then letting them export. India does it in reverse, rolls out the carpet for foreign firms and asks its own companies to prove themselves with no money and few chocolate orders. Turkey built Baykar into a global drone brand with one private company and full state backing. India shot down those same drones in May 2025 with Akashteer. So India has the defence tech talent. But Tata, L&T, Bharat Forge just got shortlisted for AMCA prototypes in February 2026. That should have happened ten years ago. The problem is not capability, it is the speed of the procurement system.

Madame FM @nsitharaman please explain what is the benefit to citizens for this huge infusion of tax payers funds? You are covering up the huge losses of @BSNLCorporate , propping up a very inefficient co which earns so little. Is there no better use of hard earned money of taxpayers? Is losing tax payers money a proud achievement? @FinancialXpress @FinMinIndia can you give us a cost benefit analysis please? Very wrong to pour our hard earned money into a deep black hole!

@felixprehn Private Equity is a gangrene on society and is in need of a Deep cleansing & reboot. Can be done if the ecosystem that allows it to flourish is deprived of oxygen. Unlikely, but not impossible. Hoping 2026 is that special year 🤞

Private equity firms bought 500 hospitals. Death rates in their emergency rooms went up 13%. They fired 12% of the staff. Then they paid themselves billions in dividends. A Harvard study just confirmed what doctors already knew: people are dying so investors can hit quarterly targets. Exactly what happens. A PE firm buys a hospital using debt. The debt gets placed on the hospital's balance sheet, not the firm's. Now the hospital owes hundreds of millions it never borrowed. To service that debt, the hospital cuts costs. Costs mean nurses. The numbers from the Harvard/University of Chicago study are horrifying. After PE acquisition, emergency department salary spending dropped 18.2%. ICU salary spending dropped 15.9%. Hospital-wide employees were cut 11.6%. Emergency department deaths rose 13%, seven additional deaths per 10,000 visits. A separate study found patients undergoing surgery at PE-acquired hospitals had 17% higher odds of dying within 90 days. Steward Health Care, owned by Cerberus Capital, filed bankruptcy with $9 billion in debt after closing hospitals across Massachusetts. The CEO lived on a $40 million yacht while emergency rooms went dark. Eight hospitals serving 2 million people nearly disappeared because a PE fund extracted more cash than the system could survive. The private equity industry has poured over $1 trillion into healthcare. They operate a quarter of ERs nationwide. This isn't going away. The investing angle nobody talks about. Non-PE hospital operators like HCA Healthcare (HCA) and Tenet (THC) are the direct beneficiaries. Every time a PE hospital closes or deteriorates, patients flow to the nearest competitor. HCA has returned 1,200% since 2011. Patient volume from PE closures is a structural tailwind nobody's pricing in. Medical staffing firms (AMN Healthcare, Cross Country) charge premium rates specifically because PE hospitals cut staff. The staffing shortage IS the business model for these companies. The disruption play: outpatient surgical centers (SCA Health, now part of UnitedHealth) are pulling profitable procedures out of hospitals entirely. PE-owned hospitals lose their highest-margin surgeries to outpatient, and the death spiral accelerates. Pull up tradevision and monitor healthcare M&A alerts, hospital closure filings, and patient volume migration data. When a PE-owned hospital announces "restructuring," the patient volume shift to competitors like HCA starts within 30 days. That 30-day window is when the competitor's earnings revisions haven't updated yet. Free to try. (a private equity firm bought your local hospital. borrowed $500 million in the hospital's name. fired 12% of the nurses. emergency room deaths rose 13%. then they paid themselves dividends. nobody went to prison. they're currently buying another hospital.)

.@sardesairajdeep you attacked me today during my panel at the @indiatoday Conclave, and you accused me of “racism” and “Islamophobia” for speaking the truth about Islam. How can you accuse me of being racist when 10 days ago, you had no problem allowing for Islamic jihadist and Muslim Brotherhood mouthpiece @mehdirhasan to come on your show even though he has referred to non-Muslims as “animals and cattle”? Here is the video of Mehdi Hasan calling non-Muslims animals and cattle. 👇🏻 Do you think Hindus are Kaffir like Mehdi does? @sardesairajdeep, It appears to me that you are an Islamic sympathizer. Even worse, Mehdi previously said he wants to see more planes crash in America. Did you ambush him and ask him to apologize for calling for acts of Islamic terrorism with planes in America? Or do you only raise your voice at women, the same way Muslim men speak to women? Why did you allow this jihadi who has been condemned by the Trump administration for supporting jihad to come on your show? Double standard! It’s time for you to stop siding with those who wish to kill you in the name of Islam. Also, I’m not going to take advice from a man who has been begging @ZohranKMamdani the Jihadi Ugandan to come on his show. Mamdani is a communist. Are you a communist?

Blown away by #Baramulla. Incredibly powerful storytelling by Director @AdityaSJambhale. Hats off to @AdityaDharFilms & @LokeshDharB62 for helping create this fine work of art! Superb performances by @KaulManav, @bhashasumbli and others !

@HarleyShah I have no idea who has been teaching you history but...

@ARanganathan72 @basrars @ncert Ask who you can’t criticise and that tells you who really controls over you. MiLord types are a drag on our nation. Hoping for AI to make a large chunk of them irrelevant but Parliament will have to defang them first.

Shameful surrender by @ncert. The mention of judicial corruption in its textbook was factual, given that 11 Chief Justices and 2 Law and National Commission reports have themselves highlighted rampant judicial corruption. It is the Supreme court that should have apologised.

@SagasofBharat Crook Teresa was the opposite of saintly, motherly & selfless. Glad to see more public awareness of her epic scale fraud.

Glad that the mask from the face of Teresa is falling off. Do you know? A journalist & and filmmaker, Donal MacIntyre, posed as an undercover observer, was making a documentary film on Teresa’s Calcutta mission. He wrote in the New Statesman how disabled children were tied up to stop them straying. She received huge amount of donations. But Inspite of so much donations the charity organisations were extremely unhygienic. •Food was prepared on the floor in the corridor. •senior members of staff mixed medicine with their hands •There were shortage of hygeinic nappies, food, medicines & other essentials. When asked to use the huge donations she received for the cause to be utilised for the patients specially children - she would reply "God would provide for the patients" So what exactly was she receiving donations for? The donations meant for patients were going straight to international banks. She wouldn't even provide painkillers to patients stating " Pain is the most beautiful gift for a person as they can participate in the suffering of Christ" Though this so-called "Saint" herself didn't participate in the suffering of Christ. She She herself had the best the world’s prestigious hospitals could provide. And till date we call this fraud as "Mother"

In our book, "Who Is Raising Your Children?," we talk about how the @NITIAayog , with the @EduMinOfIndia and @MoHFW_INDIA, are bringing in Comprehensive Sexuality Education to sexualize kids early. The Legal Ministry is trying to lower age of sexual consent (attack on POCSO), increase the age for marriage. The GOI is imposing this sexualizing education with tax payer money, foreign-funded NGOs (and foundations of Tata and HCL). The idea is to encourage sexual activity in minors and manage risks of sexual activity through vaccines (like HPV) and abortions. This is a carefully designed plan to change India's youth. The government is given a blueprint to implement this plan by NGOs, the UN, and foreign players.

@ARanganathan72 @JPNadda Not only JP, his family should be made to gladly accept these know-nothings as their doctors and physicians. @PMOIndia should approve happily.

FLASH: Health minister @JPNadda files an affidavit in the Supreme Court stating he will henceforth only be diagnosed by a Physiologist who scored -12 out of 800, investigated by a Biochemist who scored -8 out of 800, and operated by a Surgeon who scored 4 out of 800 in NEET.

Those of you who are suddenly praising @BillGates for polio eradication must know the real story - 47,000 children in India were crippled and left permanently disabled as a direct result of Bill Gates polio vaccine. envirowatchnz.com/2016/05/17/470…

>Be Bill Gates >Write a book called "How to Avoid a Climate Disaster" >Fly 59 hours on private jets in the same year >Buy more American farmland than any individual in history >Tell the developing world their cattle are killing the planet >The Maasai have kept cattle for 3,000 years >They have no obesity epidemic >No type 2 diabetes epidemic >No mental health epidemic >They do have cows, which are apparently the problem >Your solution: remove the cows, replace with lab-grown protein you've invested in >Call this "science-based policy" >The investment part is in the footnotes >Nobody reads the footnotes

They want to enslave you. They are fully incentivized to sabotage every effort to build an indigenous AI stack. The minister of @GoI_MeitY stated that Indian data should flow because foreign data comes to India for “processing.” This is the IT services lobby at work. They want to strip the public’s personal data and get American AI platforms to train on it. In exchange, IT services firms will continue receiving contracts. The government probably agrees. It cannot afford to allow services exports to falter because in the absence of a sound manufacturing base, the country’s biggest source of income would suffer. The people are paying for the state’s failure to reform and diversify the economy. Collectively, this is leading to digital colonization. Through ownership of many companies that make “sovereign” LLMs and SLMs, the Americans will control what little the country innovates. By controlling the AI stack on which India will depend, the US will gain control of the economy. The veto Washington will consequently have over India’s foreign and domestic policy will be enormous. No Indian voted for this.

I am very worried that @PMOIndia is also using the term “New Global Order” or “New World Order.” Please, dear @PMOIndia, do not offer us to powerful individuals like Bill Gates or the Rothschild family. Please stop them from meddling with our cows, mosquitoes, and health. Please do not sign any MoU with Bill Gates. 🙏🙏

@GadSaad Worshipping False Gods.. This horrible, vile person Bill Gates ought to be exposed & banned from even visiting Bharat. India should stay away from his filthy capital & asuric ideas @PMOIndia @HMOIndia He has already caused enough harm.

It’s unbelievable. It exceeds Orwell’s dystopian vision.

Why is an unelected globalist like Bill Gates have so much say over Indian health and agriculture? The people of India certainly did not vote to put him in office to make sweeping policy changes.
