New Delhi (India), June 12: In an industry almost saturated by self-help books, Niharika Nigam’s soul-searching travel fiction is an impossible breath of fresh air. Perhaps it is her own experience of bungee jumping that she weaves into the story, or her immaculate depiction of the vacuum and trepidation of the Pandemic years, now conveniently forgotten by most, that make reading “Joy of Missing Out” an experience one must not miss.
Elaborating on the catchy and witty title, Niharika says, “We’re always going to be missing out. There’s always other places to be, people to meet, and things to do. But maybe one of them is here, maybe the game is to truly be present and to juice as much life there is to juice out of it.”
The author channels the spirit of adventure and being in the moment in her own life as the Director of Business Development at Jumpin Heights, a Ministry of Tourism-certified bungee jumping collective in Rishikesh and Goa. Her passion for adventure sports is visible in the articles she writes on major media websites. Follow her Instagram handle @the_nimki and you can see snippets of her taming wild heights along with curated lessons on all things life and lifestyle. Currently, on tour for her book, her tour schedule can also be spotted on her feed.
When it comes to writing, Niharika already has articles on adventure sports published in various major media websites under her belt. But the pandemic, with its solitude and introspection, fueled her creative fire in another direction. As the world grappled with uncertainty, Niharika found solace in writing fiction—a sanctuary where she could explore love, loss, and the human spirit.
“Joy of Missing Out” beautifully captures the essence of purpose-driven work, the longing for belonging, and the meaning of home. Nanki Mehta, our relatable protagonist, grapples with a perfectly average life—a job she is good at, a cozy South Delhi abode, and a loving husband. But beneath the surface, she yearns for something more. The pandemic lockdown amplifies her existential questions, especially in the face of tragedy and the demise of a world she once used to know. The lockdown world brings fear and insecurity on a level she hadn’t seen before and jolts her out of the matrix.
Through Nanki, we find ourselves asking and answering questions that haunt us – am I truly meant for what I am doing? Am I making the difference I want to make? Niharika Nigam shows us a possible future through Nanki, and indeed if we are brave enough to follow that path not often taken, the world might become a better place.
Curious readers can find her excellent book online on Amazon and in major bookstores. The author herself is far from elusive, a blessing for anyone who wishes to debate life with her on DMs, just as Nanki does with River. Catch Niharika Nigam on tour if you can and get a copy of “Joy of Missing Out” signed.
Vinayak Bhavnani, co-founder and CTO of Chalo discusses his entrepreneurial journey, building bus transport technology and trends in the Mobility industry with host Gautum Srinivasan.
India has emerged as the world’s third-largest startup ecosystem over the last decade. Startups play an active role in surging innovation and job creation in India. The pandemic exposed the flip side of all sectors, but it accelerated digitization globally, and even more so in India.
The “Crafting Bharat – A Startup Podcast Series” powered by AWS, and an initiative by NewsReach, in association with VCCircle, unlocks the secrets behind these successful entrepreneurs’ journeys aiming to equip aspiring entrepreneurs and business enthusiasts with invaluable insights. The podcast series is hosted by Gautam Srinivasan, famed for hosting a diverse range of TV and digital programs, currently consulting editor at CNBC (India), CNN-News18, Mint, HT Media, Forbes India, and The Economic Times.
India’s rapid population growth and urbanization are creating blind spots for innovation, but a curious and passionate founder Vinayak Bhavnani, co-founder and CTO of Chalo, is digitizing the public transport system of India. In the Crafting Bharat Podcast Series, Bhavnani talks about his entrepreneurial journey, building a bus transport technology company, and trends in the Mobility industry.
Explore the tales of Indian startup founders’ transformation from dreams to reality, navigating challenges to seize opportunities through the Crafting Bharat Podcast Series.
Crafting Bharat, Episode 1 With Vinayak Bhavnani, Co-Founder and CTO of Chalo
Segment 1: The Incubator
Preference for public transport in India is reduced by reliability issues. Take us through the phase where customers started to see the benefits of using Chalo in terms of reliability and convenience. What did they really like?
From a customer’s standpoint, there are two key value propositions that we offer. First, being live tracking, bus passengers on average end up waiting for 15-20 minutes per bus ride, leading to 40 minutes of time wasted every day. Our live tracking solution has brought down this time to less than 2 minutes which is a massive delight. And second, is that back in 2018-2019 a couple of years after the demonetization we introduced tap-to-pay payments and we saw another surge of customer delight. I think these are some of the unlocks which we were able to leverage.
Digitizing and transforming public transportation, the gaps are significant. So, why do you believe the challenge of urban public transportation has persisted without a satisfactory solution. A lot has happened including digital payments, digital infrastructure, consumer awareness, consumer habits have changed but still those gaps exist. Your thoughts on this?
This is a great question and one which needs a lot more reflection. As a fact, the majority of our cities are built for cars and not for public transport. We got it wrong by prioritizing private vehicles over public transport.
Beyond this, there are 3 more reasons I can think of:
Lack of focus on this category. Most companies would rather build for the top of the pyramid, for the more affluent high LTV users. So we have products for air travel, intercity luxury bus travel but not as much for intra-city bus commute. These bus passengers unfortunately are the lower end of the pyramid.
Second is the blindspot. Most people think that buses are run only by Governments, and usually there is hesitation to build a business completely dependent on the government. But beyond our metros, most buses serving daily commutes are run by small private operators.
And the third is complexity. People logistics is complex and already underserved, hence it will take both time and massive innovation.
You operate in more than 50 cities across India and are present in 5 international locations. All together a lot of scaling up and your cloud ops are powered by AWS. Take us through the cost savings and operational efficiencies unlocked for Chalo with AWS.
Our vision is to solve end-to-end mobility, we want to make sure that your travel is hassle-free and while the bus is the best main mile or the anchor mile, you need to solve for more accessibility to bus networks or Metro networks and hence, first and last mile must be solved. I personally believe in long-term partnerships and AWS has been one true partner. The biggest test is when adversity strikes, back during COVID time all mobility was at a standstill and we were on a very tight spot. AWS helped us out massively by helping us reduce cost and to extend our commitments, so from a cash flow perspective we are better off as a company. These simple gestures go a long way to build trust and respect which are essential for any partnership.
Technical founders need to know when to take off their developer hat and when to put on their business hat. Your thoughts?
I follow this one principle which I also preach a lot, and that is to maximize the value that you create. Every time you look at a problem or an opportunity, Think about what’s the best way of solving, and not necessarily the best tech way of solving. In simpler words, we are biased to use our own tools vs the best solution possible. So one always needs to see things from a founder’s perspective vs. a techie perspective.`Tech is a subset – it’s a means and not the end. `
Your view on traffic in Mumbai versus Bengaluru?
That’s a controversial question. But traffic is on the rise in all the cities Bengaluru, Delhi and Mumbai. If you look at the number of cars on the road in all these cities in the last decade, it has rammed up. For example, 50% of road space is consumed by cars in Mumbai. And Bangalore has seen a 2x increase in the number of vehicles on the road over the last decade, with almost no increase in the number of buses. So traffic is a nightmare everywhere. We need to solve this. None of us deserve to lose our time and well-being in the middle of congested roads. And I’m hopeful that it will be solved.
The startup ecosystem of India has been growing leaps and bounds with exceptionally great innovations by visionary entrepreneurs. The increasing adoption of digitization across sectors has created avenues for various budding startups.
Stay tuned to the Crafting Bharat Podcast Series as we bring you these inspirational entrepreneurs for insightful and candid discussions with Gautam Srinivasan.
Focusing on maximizing value and finding optimal solutions instead of fixating on familiar paths leads to better outcomes.

Kolkata (West Bengal) [India], June 4: Tarot Talks, a platform dedicated to tarot enthusiasts, has been officially launched by Arka Adhikary, a tarot reader with seven years of experience. This platform aims to empower tarot readers by giving them the tools and opportunities to showcase their skills and build a successful career.
Arka Adhikary embarked on his tarot reading journey in 2017, driven by a passion for the art of tarot. Over the years, he sharpened his skills and gained extensive experience, eventually realising the need for a supportive platform where well-trained tarot readers could thrive. This realisation led to the creation of Tarot Talks, a platform designed to offer comprehensive learning and earning opportunities for tarot readers at all levels.
One of the standout features of Tarot Talks is its affordability. Unlike other platforms that charge exorbitant fees of 30-50% of earnings, Tarot Talks takes only a 10% fee. This makes it a much more attractive and viable option for tarot readers looking to build their careers without being burdened by high costs. This initiative has attracted several tarot readers who have started seeing traffic and earning through the platform.
A significant milestone for Tarot Talks was the recent large online tarot reading workshop, which attracted over 200 participants worldwide. The success of this event highlighted the demand for a supportive community for tarot readers and reinforced the mission of Tarot Talks. The platform offers services beyond tarot reading, including quality workshops and personalised support. It aims to cater to spiritual practitioners and individuals interested in learning tarot, providing an inclusive and supportive environment for all.
With the website’s official launch in April 2024, Tarot Talks is still in its nascent stages but has already begun making a significant impact. Arka Adhikary is leveraging his experience and credibility to push the platform forward, ensuring he and Tarot Talks gain the community’s trust. Moving forward, the platform plans to welcome more readers and expand its reach, continuing to empower tarot enthusiasts in their journey.
Arka Adhikary invites tarot readers, spiritual practitioners, and anyone interested in learning tarot to join the Tarot Talks community.
New Delhi (India), May 30: In a remarkable feat of bravery and skill, 14-year-old Ruchi Malve has set a new world record by becoming the youngest cave diver, diving into the treacherous Sra Keow Cave in Thailand. This achievement not only highlights her exceptional talent but also underscores her unwavering determination to push the boundaries of what young adventurers can achieve.
Who is Ruchi Malve?
Ruchi Malve, a prodigious talent from Pune, India, and a student at Dhruv Global School is no stranger to the world of adventure sports. At just 13, she became a certified scuba diver, joining her younger sister Ovee Malve in the records. Ovee holds the title of “Youngest Female Scuba Diver” from the World Book of Records, London. Inspired by their father, Neeraj Malve who runs the Bangalore Mountaineering Club, adventure is clearly in their blood.
What Did She Achieve?
Her latest achievement came on May 13, 2024, when she successfully completed a cave dive at the Sra Keow Cave, Krabi, Thailand. This perilous expedition saw her penetrate 30 meters deep into the cave, a feat that requires not just physical endurance but also technical expertise and mental fortitude. Her meticulous preparation and adherence to safety protocols, including using dual Sidemount tanks and setting up her own guidelines underwater, were instrumental in her success.
When Did This Happen?
Her journey to becoming the world’s youngest cave diver began with her enrolling in the Open Water Sidemount Diver course on May 6, 2024, in Koh Lanta, Thailand. Under the expert guidance of her instructor Andre Longchamps from OK Club Diving Center, she earned her certification on May 9, 2024. She then advanced to the Cavern Diver course, getting certified on May 12, 2024, before embarking on her record-setting dive the following day.

Her achievement at such a young age sets a new world record and inspires young adventurers worldwide. It draws attention to the potential of youth in extreme sports, especially when they have the right support and training.
How Did She Do It?
Her journey was not without its challenges. Her parents faced the tough decision of allowing her to pursue such a dangerous mission. However, with her extensive experience in adventure sports and rigorous training under professional guidance, they decided to support her dream. Her certifications from the IANTD – a USA-based Technical Scuba Diving organization – ensured she had the requisite skills and safety knowledge.
The Path Ahead
Ruchi’s record is currently under review for official recognition. Meanwhile, her story continues to inspire many. Her achievement is a testament to what can be accomplished with passion, preparation, and the right support. As she looks forward to new challenges, she stands as a beacon of youthful potential in the realm of adventure sports.
In an age where most teenagers are preoccupied with school and social media, her extraordinary journey into the depths of the Sra Keow Cave is a powerful reminder of the remarkable feats young individuals can accomplish when they dare to dream big.
