Mukul Phate Honored by Udayan Raje Bhosale for Tribute to Spy Chief Baheerji Naik

12th February 2025: Mukul Phate, the celebrated actor and filmmaker, has received widespread recognition for the global launch of his revolutionary acting manual, Leela. The book, hailed as a breakthrough in acting education, not only offers valuable techniques for actors but also serves as the first-ever tribute to the Maratha Spy Chief, Baheerji Naik. Naik’s strategic brilliance was instrumental in securing hundreds of victories for the Maratha Empire, yet his legacy has long remained overlooked. Through Leela, Mukul Phate has brought attention to the unsung hero, highlighting how Naik’s insights into human behavior and strategy influenced both battlefield victories and the art of acting.

Chhatrapati Udayan Raje Bhosale, expressed his admiration for Mukul’s initiative in honoring Baheerji Naik. In his appreciation, Udayan Raje remarked, “Baheerji Naik was one of the key architects of Maratha victories, and his contributions deserve to be celebrated. Mukul Phate’s book not only adds depth to the art of acting but also ensures that Baheerji Naik’s legacy is recognized. This is a truly innovative approach, bringing together history and performance in a meaningful way. Leela stands as the first acting manual to intertwine the craft of acting with the legacy of a historical figure. Baheerji Naik, whose mastery of strategy and human psychology helped the Maratha Empire win numerous battles, serves as an inspiration for actors.

Mukul Phate explained, “Baheerji Naik’s ability to read people and situations is something every actor can relate to. This book merges his strategic genius with modern acting techniques, offering a fresh perspective for aspiring actors.” The launch of Leela has garnered attention from industry experts, historians, and actors worldwide, who have praised Mukul Phate for his unique approach to blending historical legacy with the art of performance. With the book now available internationally, Bharat Vibhushan-Mukul Phate has made a significant contribution to both the acting world and the recognition of an unsung hero from India’s rich history.

Jackson Wang Releases High Alone from Magic Man 2 Album

Jackson Wang Releases High Alone from Magic Man 2 Album

February 12, 2025 — Jackson Wang, the global superstar musician and fashion icon, announces his first single of the year, “High Alone,” set for release Wednesday, February 12 @ 9.30pm IST, alongside an official music video. The first glimpse of Jackson’s upcoming album, MAGIC MAN 2, “High Alone” reinvigorates the volatile relationship between Jackson and his MAGIC MAN persona —a figure first introduced in his Billboard-charting, 2022 album. As MAGIC MAN 2 unfolds, this alter ego will gradually reveal its darker, toxic traits, offering listeners an intimate portrait of Jackson’s inner emotions, personal growth and experiences.

“High Alone” sets the tone for MAGIC MAN 2, an album that Jackson produced himself and meticulously worked on for more than a year. Taking a step back from the spotlight for the first time ever in his career, Jackson’s much needed break opened unaddressed emotions. The album is structured in four distinct chapters, each exploring a different stage of grief. From manic highs fueled by denial, to the painful reckoning of lost identity, setting boundaries and shedding people-pleasing tendencies, to ultimately finding peace through acceptance – this album is a raw, unfiltered chronicle of his evolution. The album is set to come out in the summer of 2025.

Reflecting on the origins of MAGIC MAN, Jackson shares:
“I created MAGIC MAN to figure out my pain, as a mask representing my darkest emotions, my internal emotions. I told the world ‘Find Your Magic’—they cheered. As I took roughly a year away from the scene, I kept asking myself and I realized I have never honestly asked myself that. As MAGIC MAN came to its end, I have experienced nothing but the crucial reality of what humanity is. I was in a very dark place mentally and physically. I thought I could never recover. I went through stages of avoiding it, facing it, being destroyed by it, letting myself rot, picking myself up and trying to accept it. The only way I could release it was by writing in my diary. Writing down how and why I was feeling the way I felt. And for the first time, I put my world into my music. This album represents being true to myself, listening to my heart and accepting all the good and the bad. This is MAGIC MAN II.”

Jackson’s rise as a global icon continues to make waves across the music and fashion industries. His previous album, MAGIC MAN (2022), debuted at #15 on the Billboard 200 and #3 on the Top Album Sales chart, and has garnered over 123 million streams worldwide. His 2023 MAGIC MAN WORLD TOUR sold out across the globe, and his performance at the 2023 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival made history as the first-ever Chinese solo artist to perform at the festival three times, with his set trending #1 Worldwide on Twitter.

In addition to his music career, Jackson Wang is a Louis Vuitton Global House Ambassador, Cartier Ambassador and Hennessy Ambassador, and he was recently named creative director for Nike and Jordan. With over 100 million followers across social platforms, Jackson is the most followed person in China on Instagram.

Jackson prepares to release MAGIC MAN 2, “High Alone” stands as the perfect introduction to this next phase in his musical evolution—an invitation for fans to join him on a deeply personal journey of self-discovery, growth, and emotional release.

Honeywell & AM Green Partner on Carbon Capture and Sustainable Fuel in India

NEW DELHI, India, February 12, 2025 – Honeywell (NASDAQ: HON) and AM Green today signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) during India Energy Week 2025 to assess the techno-economic feasibility of producing sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) from ethanol, green methanol from various carbon dioxide (CO₂) emission sources, and green hydrogen. This collaboration underscores the alignment of Honeywell’s portfolio to three compelling megatrends which includes the energy transition.

The companies will work together to identify opportunities to enhance India’s energy security and:

  •  Reduce crude oil import dependence.
  •  Help position the country as a competitive global exporter of green methanol to aid shipping companies in adopting this low-emission alternative fuel.
  •  Help airlines in meeting CORSIA mandates for low-carbon, drop-in fuel replacements.

“The collaboration with AM Green will help advance India’s low-carbon economy and create an ecosystem that supports the government’s SAF blending mandates, positioning India as a global leader in alternative fuel innovation,” said Ashish Modi, President, Honeywell India. “By combining Honeywell’s proven carbon capture technologies and ethanol-to-jet solution with AM Green’s expertise in green hydrogen and ethanol production, we will pave the way for a sustainable future and reinforce our commitment to environmental stewardship.”

Mahesh Kolli, Co-Founder and Group President of AM Green said, “We are delighted to partner with Honeywell, which is one of the world’s largest technology companies that is positively shaping the future of energy. This partnership demonstrates AM Green’s emerging leadership position as a global clean energy transition solutions platform while contributing to India’s ambition of emerging as an exporter of reliable, sustainable and lowest-cost green molecules and its derivatives accelerating industrial decarbonization globally.”

The collaboration benefits Indian farmers by creating demand for ethanol feedstocks. It also aligns with the government’s National Green Hydrogen Mission to boost green hydrogen production through green methanol for domestic and export use.
