Excited to be part of "𝐈𝐤𝐢𝐠𝐚𝐢 𝐨𝐟 𝐈𝐧𝐯𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬" — Investing with Purpose 🌸
I'll be speaking alongside my partner at @primeinvestorin PMS - @bhavana_prime - at this Chennai edition session, part of In Her Interest, an initiative by @ZerodhaVarsity , focused on women's investor awareness.
Ikigai is the Japanese idea of finding your reason for being. We're borrowing that lens for investing: before you pick a mutual fund or a stock, do you know the reason for your investing in the first place?
In this session, we'll help you:
🔸 Get clarity on what your money actually needs to do for you
🔸 Build a practical framework to map your short, medium, and long-term goals
🔸 Walk away with more confidence in choosing investment products that align with those goals — not the other way around
So many of us start with the "what" (which fund, which stock) before we've nailed the "why." This session flips that order.

Whatever label anyone gives me, my view stands vindicated. The Industries Ministry under TRB Rajaa operated apolitically. As a commoner, I saw no signs of corruption - the performance was phenomenal. He has set a very high benchmark to excel.
As I’ve always say, love or hate a party, views must remain balanced and rooted in facts.
I'll say this again. Each and every exam in this country is staged in a way to eliminate as many students as possible. The reason is that the state doesn't want you studying/ working. Be it NEET, CLAT, UPSC, each and every exam is structured that way.
Denying entry for being late is one the most idiotic rules to exist. What exactly are you losing by allowing a late student to write the exam? Don't come at me with the "but it's to ensure discipline". Bc no one ever deliberately gets late. The entire system is filled w sadists.

My Dear Friends,
Anitha’s Agonising Sacrifice Revisited After Nine Long Years
Nine years may have passed, yet the wounds inflicted by the tragedy of Anitha remain painfully fresh in the collective conscience of Tamil Nadu.
Anitha, the gifted daughter of a humble family from Ariyalur district, secured an extraordinary 1176 out of 1200 marks (98%) in her Higher Secondary Examination. However, her cherished dream of becoming a doctor was mercilessly shattered when the Supreme Court dismissed the petitions challenging NEET, leaving her aspirations in ruins and ultimately driving her to take her own life.
Today, when candidates who had failed Physics and Chemistry in their board examinations are reportedly scoring as high as 705 out of 720 in NEET, one cannot help but question the glaring inequities and inherent biases embedded within the system. In this struggle against injustice, Anitha stands not merely as a victim, but as a martyr whose sacrifice continues to resonate.
Born into adversity, Anitha was the youngest among four brothers. Her father toiled as a daily wage labourer, and tragedy struck early in her life when her mother passed away while she was studying in the second grade, allegedly due to the lack of timely medical care. That heartbreaking loss ignited within the young girl an unwavering determination to become a doctor, so that others might not suffer a similar fate.
Brilliance was her constant companion. Year after year, she topped her school, culminating in her stellar score of 1176 marks. Before the advent of NEET in 2017, medical admissions in Tamil Nadu were based on Higher Secondary marks, and by every conventional measure, Anitha had earned her rightful place in a medical college.
Yet fate dealt her a cruel hand. Bereft of expensive coaching classes and urban privileges, she could not secure a competitive score in NEET. Nevertheless, she emerged as one of the prominent voices in Tamil Nadu’s resistance against the examination, joining hands with activists who questioned its fairness.
When she and her brother travelled to Delhi, using flight tickets arranged by social activist Mr. Prince Gajendra Babu, to seek justice before the apex court, sections of the media chose not to empathise with her plight. Instead of understanding the anguish of a young girl battling against overwhelming odds, they subjected her to needless scrutiny, questioning who had funded her travel and whether she was truly impoverished. In adding insult to injury, they cast aspersions on her integrity rather than addressing the substance of her concerns.
Some media houses, in their eagerness to protect vested interests, seemed to have missed the forest for the trees.
Ultimately, on September 1, 2017, Anitha succumbed to despair. Her untimely death extinguished not only her dreams but also the hopes of countless others who saw in her a beacon of perseverance and possibility. It remains one of the darkest chapters in contemporary Tamil Nadu’s social history.
Yet even in the midst of immeasurable grief, her family chose the path of nobility. The compassion and financial assistance that poured in after her passing could easily have been used to alleviate their own hardships. Instead, rising above personal adversity, they established a library housing more than 4,000 books and created facilities to assist aspiring students in their educational pursuits.
Today, many children from her village are benefitting from these resources and striving to fulfil their own dreams, a testament to the fact that while Anitha’s life was tragically cut short, her spirit continues to illuminate the path for others.
I earnestly urge my friends, their families, parents, and future parents to read the poignant account penned by Johanna Deeksha for The Indian Express. Her narrative offers not merely a story, but a profound lesson in resilience, dignity, and the relentless pursuit of justice.

Today's Telegram ban is proof of why an indigenous social media or messaging app can never grow in India.
If @durov was Indian, he would be in jail along with his entire team and his entire infrastructure seized because a question paper was supposedly leaked on Telegram. It would have taken a few months to get bail. Line of FIRs stretching to Kanyakumari. Court cases dragging on for a decade or more. TV channels would have gone to town with all kinds of consipracies of how Soros is involved.
We have vaguely written laws, open to the worst interpretation and bureaucratic overreactions. It's not a stable foundation for anyone to build on.
The same applies to now AI. Anyday someone will be offended in this country by anything an indigenous AI generates in text or images and the founders can find themselves in jail and fighting court cases.
We're thrilled to announce that we have raised $234M in the first close of our $300M Series B at a $1.5B valuation.
@HCLTech and @BessemerVP have joined us in this round, alongside continued support from @khoslaventures and @peakxvpartners
For countries and companies, sovereign control on the AI stack is no longer an optionality. Sarvam will be the partner of choice for this aspiration. The capital allows us to accelerate our momentum towards this full stack of models, compute, and deployments.
A huge thank you to our customers, partners, investors, and the Sarvam team for your trust and belief in what we are building. We’re just getting started.

@TRBRajaa Hi Anna, want to start like "Anna AI padipaggam" all over TN for imparting AI knowledge (basics of AI/ML concepts, using AI tools, building small projects)
Why DMK should do it ? 1. all of us do not where to start, how to learn AI or upskill for others, 2. Its truly a social one
Sure, things can be better, but it's crazy how transparent and safe the Indian markets are compared to the US, all thanks to SEBI and the exchanges. It's not just Fidelity; even other big brokers seem to have 'flipping' restrictions in place.

This is a sharp wake-up call for India. We must urgently invest in and build sovereign AI solutions right here at home.
We’ve already outsourced our communication infrastructure to Meta. Let’s not repeat the same mistake with AI.
Once Indians get a real taste of what AI can do, there’s no going back.
Tamil Nadu’s emerging Shipbuilding sector will be built over the Foundation which was Laid by the Dravidian Model Govt under the then CM Honourable @mkstalin avargal.
Investment promotion demands farsighted policy design, precisely timed interventions and an intimate understanding of where the global economy is heading. The previous administration in #TamilNadu, under the then Chief Minister Thiru.M.K. Stalin, built a team that understood these dynamics and consistently identified the right moment to act.
The strategic logic behind focusing on Thoothukudi was clear from the very beginning. It’s a major port with fantastic infrastructure, year-round navigability and proximity to emerging green energy and manufacturing corridors. This offered a rare convergence of crucial assets needed for new investments in manufacturing.
Unlocking that potential required an anchor investor whose presence would signal to the global industry that Tamil Nadu was a healthy vibrant global investment destination. This happened via #GIM2024 with the confirmation of Vinfast and other major investments.
