From a rented garage to a global biotech powerhouse — this is what audacious belief can build.
Kiran Mazumdar-Shaw’s journey is not merely the story of Biocon; it is a story of Indian enterprise, scientific courage and purpose-driven leadership. Beginning nearly five decades ago, when biotechnology was barely understood and women entrepreneurs faced formidable barriers, she built an institution that today stands at the frontiers of biosimilars, insulin and life-saving therapies.
What inspires me most is the philosophy at its heart: innovation must ultimately serve people. Affordable access, scale, biotech sovereignty, resilient supply chains and now the transformative possibilities of AI — her vision looks beyond business success to the larger question of how India can become a global leader in health innovation.
A pioneer who broke barriers, built capabilities and opened doors for generations of women to follow. A remarkable Made-in-India story with a truly global footprint. 🇮🇳

Delighted to see Swallowing the Sun receive such a powerful and perceptive reading from Kirkus Reviews, which calls it:
“Puri’s historical novel is an epic saga of one girl’s growth throughout the decades that culminate in India’s postcolonial nationhood. The novel’s 60 chapters present the experiences of Malati Desai, an Indian girl from the Kshatriya caste of warriors and kings, in the three decades preceding India’s achievement of independence from British colonial rule in 1947. The vicissitudes of life for the Desai family are presented in lush detail. Malati grows from a pugnacious girl who tackles Bhika the schoolyard bully into a superwoman attorney and role model for those women of India who remain bound by tradition. Concrete descriptive details of curries, saris, and bangles are embedded in accounts of banditry attacks, secret romantic liaisons, and tragic family deaths. Historical figures, such as Annie Besant and Mahatma Gandhi, appear against this turbulent backdrop. By the end of the novel, Malati emerges as a colossal embodiment of the newly liberated Mother India, invested with the power to swallow the sun and retain its volcanic revolutionary fire in her belly. The novel is a monumental homage to a crucial period in world history, promising to inspire and to empower today’s generation of women.”
