A new studio and workspace for @PurpleBlueHouse. A new chapter.
We began this journey in Nehru Place, Delhi with a Pooja and Havan as PurpleBlue House steps into year 5.
What we’re building here is not an office.
It’s a working studio of ideas, experiments, and breakthroughs.
Delhi: Vijay Chauthaiwale, In-charge, Department of Foreign Affairs, Bharatiya Janata Party, says, "Today the BJP National President met the heads of missions of 12 countries under the 'know BJP' program, an initiative that was started by his predecessor, JP Nadda. It was his first engagement, and therefore, there was a lot of natural curiosity among the diplomats about the BJP's future directions. After the initial remarks, there was quite a good sharing of experiences and question-answer sessions. Their questions were mainly on the BJP's future plans, BJP's ideology, organization, and also what we plan to do for the 'Viksit Bharat' vision of 2047..."
A simple cheat code for life is to just be easy to work with.
Respond quickly. Do what you said you'd do. Be pleasant.
An alarming number of people suck at all of this.
The rooms that shape India and the voices that move it have rarely sat at the same table.
We decided it was time to change that by launching the first edition of Creators Connect at the @NSEIndia in Mumbai.🦋

While the world was busy watching other geopolitical fires burn, PM Modi quietly made five of the most important stops on the planet in five days.
UAE. Netherlands. Sweden. Norway. Italy.
Read that list again slowly. Because each one of those countries holds a key to something India desperately needs right now and cannot afford to get wrong.
Here is the context most people are missing.
Hormuz just got choked. Energy routes that the world treated like guaranteed infrastructure for decades suddenly looked fragile. Supply chains that took forty years to build started wobbling in weeks. Every government that was paying attention started asking the same uncomfortable questions at the same time. Where does our energy actually come from. Who really controls our access to technology. And which trade corridors are still going to exist in five years.
PM Modi clearly got the memo before most.
The UAE is the first stop and energy is the entire reason. The Gulf has been disrupted. Hormuz is under pressure. And the UAE just made a decision that changes everything about how it operates. It stepped outside the OPEC framework. It can now pump freely without anyone's permission. And it has a pipeline that moves oil completely around the Strait. For India that is not just useful. That is survival infrastructure. This meeting is about securing that relationship before the rest of the world wakes up and starts competing for the same thing.
Then comes the stop that will look most important in hindsight.
The Netherlands. Specifically a small city in the south of the country that most people have never heard of. The semiconductor war between America and China is not slowing down. It is accelerating. And India knows that if it is not inside that ecosystem now, it will be buying chips on someone else's terms for the next thirty years. The conversations happening there are not about trade statistics. They are about whether India gets to be part of the supply chain that decides who wins the technology race of this decade.
Sweden is quieter but the signal is loud.
When three leaders stand together in front of Europe's top industrial decision makers, that is not a photo opportunity. That is India saying directly to European capital, you have been talking about reducing China dependency for years and we are the answer you have been looking for. Sweden's industrial companies represent exactly the manufacturing sophistication India needs as it tries to move beyond being a cheap labour destination and become a genuine industrial power.
Most people will skip over Norway entirely. That would be a mistake.
No Indian Prime Minister has made this trip in 43 years. Norway runs the largest sovereign wealth fund on earth. It is patient, long-term, and looking for exactly the kind of growth story India represents. The numbers being discussed are not small. And beyond the capital, Arctic shipping routes and green energy corridors open up a completely different geography for Indian trade. The quiet stops are usually the most deliberate ones.
Italy lands the plane on something much bigger than it appears.
The corridor connecting India to Europe through the Middle East needs a European endpoint and Italy is it. When that corridor is fully operational, Indian goods reach European consumers faster and cheaper than they ever have before. Without passing through the chokepoints that everyone just watched become weapons. Add the India-EU free trade negotiations running in parallel and you are looking at a structural shift in how India plugs into the global economy.
Here is the honest truth about what this week actually means.
The world is being reorganised right now. Not gradually over decades the way it usually happens. Rapidly. In months. And the positions countries lock in during this window will determine where they sit in whatever order emerges on the other side.
India is not sitting still waiting to see how things shake out.
Five countries. Five days. Energy security, chip access, European industrial integration, sovereign capital, and a trade corridor that rewires the map.
PM Modi is not touring the world.
He is building a different India for what comes next.
Big thank you, @kushallodha548 for making the first edition of Creators Connect by @PurpleBlueHouse at National Stock Exchange a memorable one!
P.S. Manifesting your listing at @NSEIndia! ✨😃
Had an amazing time at @NSEIndia meeting MD & CEO, @ashishchauhan and having a tour of the entire building.
What stood out was the trading floor, and the amazing cyber security system that NSE has in order to ensure there are no cyber scams that happen.
It was always a dream to ring the bell at NSE, although it'll be even better if it is by listing my own company haha, but at least the manifestation begins now.
What an amazing day, surrounded with the best content creators in world of finance and business, and meeting them after so long. It is always a pleasure to learn from creators in your category. I highly recommend everyone to form a group of 3-5 content creators in your similar category and of your size so you guys can brainstorm every week / fortnight about content.
Thank you so much to @PurpleBlueHouse and @PreritaC for helping us organise this and making this happen. Also, thank you so much for the wonderful dinner at the Intercontinental Hotel with the marvellous sunset view!
Looking forward to more of such opportunities in the future.
Highly grateful!

Major life hack: Don't complain, ever. Nobody likes a complainer. They drain the energy of everyone around them. It's exhausting spending time around someone who constantly complains about things outside their control. If it’s within your control, go do something about it. If it’s not, you’re just wasting energy thinking about it. Complaining gives too much power to the thing. Take back that power.
Zero violence for the first time in the history of elections, particularly in West Bengal. Not even a single death in political violence. No booth capturing. No rigging. Record breaking turnout. No controversy around 'missing EVMs', papertrail or VVPAT. Seamless transparent process and real time live data reporting in all five states.
In short, of that's the job, then yes, Election Commission has won hands down.

And somewhere in all of this, a quiet full circle moment for the 8-year-old Prerita who once tried to self-publish a poetry book on Microsoft Publisher.
Grateful for the journey, and everything that has brought us here. 🙏🏽🦋
Congratulations @PreritaC for your new office !
You are a lethal combination of creavity & hardwork ….
