1. The biggest disaster - far bigger than any genocide in history of world - has been de-masculation of Hinduism from its original martial form.
2. Almost every Veda mantra - source of Hinduism - has an unapologetic martial interpretation.
Enemy has to be dealt with ruthlessness. Life is all about tapasya, training and strength accumulation. That is the path to Eeshwar
मन्युरसि मन्यु मयि देहि, बलमसि बलमसि देहि।
3. All deities carry a weapon. All deities have stories around how they destroyed criminals.
4. Bhagvad Geeta is essentially poem of war. To guide an escapist mind to surrender to war of Dharma, even if it demands killing near and dear ones.
5. Non-violence is defined as eradication of forces of violence without frustration.
6. Greatest icon of Sattvik living is Bajrang Bali Hanuman - greatest warrior and strongman ever.
7. And what has happened now. We are busy preparing glorified clerks who get paid well from colonial masters or ecosystem they govern.
Who would watch action films day and night, but freeze at thought of attacking those who attack them. Or remain helpless bystanders when someone is attacked on road.
8. It is assumed that those who fight and can indulge in violence have to be those who drink, womanize, are uneducated or are uncouth.
Called Gunda.
9. We forget that Gunda comes from same Sanskrit root from which English word Good comes - it means someone who protects and is powerful. गुड रक्षणे
10. Sant Tukaram has written that every son must be a Gunda.
11. By modern logic, a vegetarian, sattvik, Ram Bhakt Hanuman can never be a warrior.
12. It is time that we revive the Hanuman - make him central of our education system and culture.
Not as a monkey, but as described in Ramayan - Veda expert, great orator, genius, master planner, disciplined, creative, innovator, daring, sattvik, and yet Gundappa गुण्डप्पा।
13. Men need to be masculine again - like Bajrang Bali Hanuman. The modern education system must end. We don't need clerks.
14. We need men. Real men. Not the silly alpha male marketed by west who seduces some drunk women in pubs.
We need Bajrang Bali Hanumans whose life is ultimate joy because they train hard, stretch boundaries of human potentials, are protectors and always focused on purpose of Ram Bhakti.
15. Radical shifts needed. Enough of Bhaashan, Panel discussions. Let that be done by women and old.
Young men should be गुण्डप्पा. They must lead Bharat back to VishwaGuru through intensity, planning, genius, teamwork, and ruthless focus on goal.

Pakistan is hosting the US-Iran talks right now. And doing everything a serious mediator isn't supposed to be doing. I did some digging on how Norway does it. The contrast is remarkable.
When Norway brokered the Oslo Accords in 1993, the Israeli and Palestinian delegations apparently didn't even know each other were coming. They were housed in the same secluded country estate outside Oslo. Shared breakfast, lunch, dinner. No media knew. The research institute FAFO served as a front. Norway's foreign minister showed up under the guise of discussing "other matters." The entire architecture was designed to do one thing: reduce identity threat.
When you strip away cameras, flags, and audiences, adversaries stop performing for their constituencies. They start problem-solving. This is the "audience effect" in behavioral science. People in observed settings default to positional bargaining. Remove the audience, you unlock integrative bargaining. Norway understands this.
Now look at Islamabad today. Digital billboards across the city branding it "The Islamabad Talks" with Pakistani, American, and Iranian flags side by side. A five-star hotel cleared of guests. Two-day public holiday declared. Streets emptied by security lockdown. Pavements literally being painted. The PM's own X post went viral not for its content, but because it carried a "Draft" tag, suggesting it was scripted by someone else. This is not mediation. This is a state throwing itself a party for being invited to host one.Every billboard, every painted curb, every flag display says: "Look at us." Norway's entire philosophy said: "Don't look at us. Look at each other."
The behavioral mechanism here is what I'd call mediator narcissism vs. mediator invisibility. Norway's model: the facilitator disappears. The Colombian peace process, also launched in Oslo then moved to Havana, followed the same playbook. Secret exploratory phase. Confidentiality rules. Talks held outside the conflict zone. Nothing was agreed until everything was agreed. The mediator's ego was never the variable.
Pakistan's model: the mediator IS the story. The defense minister calls Israel "a curse for humanity" on X while positioning Pakistan as a neutral venue. Iran's delegation arrives carrying portraits of slain schoolchildren as props. #IslamabadTalks trends on X, curated, not organic. When the mediator competes for attention with the mediation, trust collapses. However, one could make an argument that Pakistan isn't the real mediator here. Just a host.
There's an old concept in negotiation design called "the architecture of the table." Who sits where. What's on the walls. Whether there's a door that opens to a garden or a camera. The Norwegians seated adversaries at the same table, in a farmhouse, with no insignia. Pakistan seated adversaries inside a Red Zone, surrounded by billboards celebrating Pakistan.
The Nordic model treats mediation as a craft with a grammar: secrecy, neutrality, long-term commitment, low profile. Norway has institutionalized this over decades from Sri Lanka to Colombia to Venezuela. Pakistan is treating this as a national branding exercise. And branding exercises produce optics. Mediations produce outcomes.
I am still hoping for a peace deal. That will be a good thing for several countries. And if this Pakistan model works, may be there will be a new playbook on mediation.
The West poured $50 billion into fast breeder nuclear reactors and abandoned every single one. India poured $900 million and just achieved criticality on the first commercially viable one outside Russia.
The US spent $15 billion. Gave up. Japan spent $12 billion. Their Monju prototype had one sodium fire in 1995 and never recovered. The UK spent $8 billion. Germany spent $6 billion. France, Italy, all walked away. Six of the richest nations on Earth concluded this technology was too hard and too expensive to pursue.
India started building in 2004 with an initial budget of $420 million. Twenty-two years, a dozen missed deadlines, and a cost doubling later, the Prototype Fast Breeder Reactor at Kalpakkam just sustained a controlled fission chain reaction. The reactor is now alive.
The reason India never quit is a constraint most people have never thought about. India has only 1-2% of the world's uranium reserves. For a country of 1.4 billion people trying to build energy independence, that's a death sentence if you're running conventional nuclear.
But India has 25% of the world's thorium. The single largest national reserve on Earth.
The problem: you can't just burn thorium the way you burn uranium. A physicist named Homi Bhabha designed a three-stage nuclear program in the 1950s specifically to solve this. Stage 1: burn natural uranium in heavy water reactors, collect plutonium as a byproduct. Stage 2: feed that plutonium into fast breeder reactors, where it breeds MORE plutonium AND converts thorium into fissile uranium-233. Stage 3: burn thorium directly at scale.
India just entered Stage 2. Seventy years after Bhabha drew it up on paper.
The math on the thorium endgame is wild. At current energy consumption rates, India's thorium reserves could power the country for over 700 years. Most nuclear nations are playing a uranium game with maybe 80-100 years of runway. India is playing a completely different game with a 7x longer fuel supply.
The West quit because uranium stayed cheap and sodium coolant is terrifying. It catches fire on contact with air. It explodes on contact with water. Russia's BN-600 had 27 sodium leaks and 14 sodium fires between 1980 and 1997. And Russia kept going anyway because Russia doesn't quit nuclear projects. India watched all of that and kept going too.
When you have 1% of the uranium but 25% of the thorium, the engineering difficulty stops being a reason to quit. It becomes the price of admission to a 700-year energy supply that nobody else can access.
Your Saturday morning is made when you watch an unexpected but an absolutely delightful chemistry between two ‘creatures’, Grace n Rocky… what a lovely movie PROJECT HAIL MARY!
The #Dhurandhar2 isn’t just smashing box office records , but it is actually NUCLEAR BOMBING the very FOUNDATION of what we thought INDIAN CINEMA is .. And it would be an ABSOLUTE UNFORGIVABLE STUPIDITY to get BLINDED by just those THUNDEROUS COLLECTIONS alone , and MISS the real DEVASTATING EARTHQUAKE @AdityaDharFilms has created and moved the goal post from INDIAN CINEMA IS to INDIAN CINEMA WAS .
More than the shocking TWISTS in the story , what was even more SHOCKING were the unthinkable TWISTS in the very STRUCTURE of CINEMA being followed ever since the MOVIE CAMERA was invented
My creations , inspired from the likes of GODFATHER whether it is SHIVA , SATYA, COMPANY or SARKAR , were 4 RAW, UNFLINCHING MIRRORS to the BRUTAL REALISM of CRIME ORGANISATIONS and INTRINSIC POWER PLAYS at high places etc and @AdityaDharFilms studied them and others works like a SCIENTIST, extracted their HEARTS, multiplied their DNA by a 100 , and then injected HIGH OCTANE ROCKET FUEL called PATRIOTISM and mixed it with a huge dose of ACIDIC GEOPOLITICS and further added dollops of TERRORISM and ESPIONAGE in addition to INTELLIGENCE WARFARE all poured into a BEAUTIFUL jar to make a TOXIC CONCOCTION of BETRAYAL AND LOYALTY laced with HEART WRENCHING HUMAN VALUES ..And it is the LAVA of that VOLCANIC MIXTURE is what is making THE TECTONIC PLATES of the FILM INDUSTRY TREMBLE in it’s PANTS
My 4 films are SCHOOL BOY’S ESSAYS compared to @AdithyaDharFilms SCIENCE THESIS OF the NEW AGE of FUTURE CINEMA
Any filmmaker including me , if he still clings to scripts written before March 19th 2026 without asking himself the brutal question “Is this better or even anywhere near to the new benchmark set by Dhurandhar 2 ? will be a SUPREME IDIOT WALKING STRAIGHT INTO OBLIVION
#Dhurandhar2 is not just a GAME CHANGER .. it just BURNED THE ENTIRE FUCKING RULEBOOK on which we were making films
So here’s my RAW ADVISE to every director out there (MOST OF ALL MYSELF)
Throw the old drafts of your scripts, whatever has been written before March 19 th 2026 into the #dhurandhar fire and
let’s all RUN BACK to the drawing board right now. SEE YOU THERE ! 💪🔥💐
“ Art is not about what it is.. It is about what it could be, and what it should be “

On behalf of INDIAN CINEMA’S FUTURE , Thank you @AdityaDharFilms , for showing us what CINEMA could be , and SHOULD BE 🙏🙏🙏
Defiance: Novak Djokovic
Novak Djokovic is my favorite athlete. Not my favorite tennis player, my favorite athlete, period.
What he did against Jannik Sinner in the Australian Open semifinal is the clearest example of why.
Djokovic confronted a matchup that had already turned structural, where the patterns were clear, the margins were shrinking, and where Sinner had control, and chose to dismantle it anyway.
At 38 years old.
And after losing the first set, there was no hesitation and no extended recalibration. Djokovic instead raised his level, accepted risk without waiting for comfort, went full force, and never let the match breathe.
This was a plan executed at full commitment. You could see the effect on Sinner as the match went on, the frustration building as Novak continued to deny him, forcing him to play from discomfort rather than control.
What separates Djokovic has never been popularity or aesthetics, but his willingness to interrogate his own limits and change accordingly because he doesn’t cling to old versions of himself. He audits them.
Djokovic is ruthless with inefficiency and humble enough to rebuild when the game demands it. Every phase of his career has been defined by reinvention through discipline rather than shortcuts, and this match was another chapter in that pattern.
Edge doesn’t disappear with age when adaptation stays ahead of the problem.
Watching him solve this puzzle in real time, against the version of Sinner that had given him the most trouble, was one of the most remarkable performances I have ever seen.
That was defiance. That is why Novak Djokovic is my favorite athlete.
