Mumbai: In 1996, Dharmesh Shah started Bhavin Steel from a 100-square-foot office in Borivali East, Mumbai. The office was small, the team was one person, and the resources were limited. What the operation had instead were principles: fair pricing, honest dealing, and unconditional support to every client. Nearly three decades later, Shah has built HomeSol Group into one of Mumbai’s most trusted real estate ecosystems, managing over ₹400 crore in inventory, working with major developers, and maintaining a channel partner network exceeding 2,000. But the path from that small office to this integrated platform wasn’t defined by aggressive expansion or…
New Delhi: Shekhar Natarajan, Founder and CEO of Orchestro.AI, explains how the misuse of facial recognition software impacts narratives in this opinion piece. Umar Khalid has spent more than five years in prison. His trial has not yet meaningfully begun. He was arrested in September 2020 under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act — India’s harshest anti-terror law — accused of conspiring to incite the communal violence that swept parts of Delhi in February 2020. The riots left 53 people dead, most of them Muslims, and took place amid massive protests against a controversial citizenship law. The evidence against him? Speeches…
Mumbai: Healing is not the absence of pain, but the quiet courage to sit with it, listen to it, and choose compassion and this is where Dr. Tejashwini Basavanneppa Harti’s journey truly began. As a student of Ayurveda, she learned to read the body not just as a system, but as a story. She noticed that many who came seeking relief were also carrying unspoken emotions & grief folded into breath, stress stored in muscles, silence settling into illness. From this awareness grew her belief that healing must be whole, tending gently to the body, the mind, and the heart…
New Delhi: Shekhar Natarajan, Founder and CEO of Orchestro.AI, explains the impact of AI that could change narratives in this opinion piece. The question isn’t why Angelic Intelligence went viral. The question is why nothing else did—and what that absence reveals about the gap between how the AI industry talks about its work and how the public actually experiences it. For a decade, the AI discourse has been dominated by two narratives. The utopian version: AI will solve climate change, cure diseases, extend human capability beyond current imagination. The dystopian version: AI will destroy jobs, concentrate power, potentially threaten human…

New Delhi: Shekhar Natarajan, the Founder and CEO of Orchestro.AI, discusses the need for founders from the general public who can build future AI and technology that stand firm in ethics and morality. THE GUEST LIST The Department of Justice has now released 3.5 million pages documenting Jeffrey Epstein’s network. Here is what they show about the moral architecture of the people who built modern technology: The people who built the search engine you used this morning maintained documented relationships with a convicted child sex offender for years after his conviction. The people who built the social network where you…
New Delhi: Shekhar Natarajan, the Founder and CEO of Orchestro.AI, warns that morally bankrupt people are building the most dangerous technology on Earth. READ THE ROOM Let’s be precise about what just happened. On January 30, 2026, the United States Department of Justice released 3.5 million pages of files documenting Jeffrey Epstein’s network. 2,000 videos. 180,000 images. The largest single disclosure of criminal evidence in American history. And buried in those pages, name after name after name, are the people who built, fund, and control the artificial intelligence systems that now govern nearly every aspect of your daily life. Not…
New Delhi: Shekhar Natarajan, Founder and CEO of Orchestro.AI, explains how he rose from rags to riches in this inspirational piece. THE INVENTORY OF PRIVILEGE Let’s take inventory of what the men in the Epstein files had. Collectively, the tech figures documented across 3.5 million pages of DOJ files controlled more wealth than most nations. They had private islands, private jets, private chefs, private security, and private access to every institution on Earth. They had Ivy League educations, tenured professorships, endowed chairs, and research labs with budgets larger than some countries’ GDP. They had teams of lawyers, fleets of lobbyists,…
