Mahabharata Episode 1: Beginnings

Ganga, Devabrata and Shantanu The first episode of the Stories of Mahabharata podcast series has been missing for a long time. The episode was not added because it did not have the production quality that we have been striving for. After a long break, we finally found some time to rerecord this episode and mix the vocal track with sound effects and music to make it at par with the rest of the episodes. We hope you like it. This episode tells the story of the beginnings of the great saga told by Rishi Vyasa and written by lord Ganesha. The story begins with the narrative of King Shantanu's marriage with Ganga and the birth of Devabrata. Later we learn how prince Devabrata becomes the great Bhishma because of his “Bhisham” or profound vow – a vow which kickstarts the story of the Mahabharata and the destiny of the Kuru dynasty.

How Legacy Brands Lost GenZ

Generation Z has divorced legacy brands. From fashion to food, skincare to supplements, young Indians are abandoning household names for Instagram-born startups their parents have never heard of. Zara feels too expensive and repetitive. H&M lacks uniqueness. Traditional brands feel inauthentic and mass-produced. But this isn't about price alone. It's about trust, personalization, and meaning. In an era where identity is curated pixel by pixel on social media, GenZ needs brands that speak their language—brands with personality, rough edges, and values that align with their own. Brand consulting and founder of Think9 Consumer Technologies Santosh Desai, ET's Aanya Thakur and Tanishka Dubey as well as Valley's Shubh Agrawal tell host Anirban Chowdhury it’s a "fundamental structural shift"— a permanent rewiring of consumer behavior driven by technology, media fragmentation, and the democratization of distribution. Brand loyalty, he argues, was always just inertia. And that inertia is dead. Welcome to the post-loyalty economy.You can follow Anirban Chowdhury on his social media: X and LinkedinCheck out other interesting episodes like: How Will a Volatile ₹ Impact You in 2026?, How Quick Commerce is Triggering a Health Crisis for Gen Z, India’s Labour Law Reboot, Viral to Valuation: Building Women’s Cricket as a Brand and much more.

178. The Murder of Manjit Panghali

Recorded live at Apple BKC, Mumbai It began as a routine evening in Surrey — the kind that never makes headlines. Manjit Panghali stepped out, expecting to return home like she always did. But she didn’t. At first, it was brushed off as a delay… a missed call… a misunderstanding. But as hours passed, the silence grew heavier. What unsettled investigators wasn’t just that she was missing — it was where the trail stopped and who noticed the absence last. This is the story of that seemingly ordinary day, that woman who should’ve returned, and the one person hell bent on making sure she didn’t. This is the story of Manjit Panghali.

Dozens killed in Swiss ski resort fire

Swiss police say dozens of people have died in a fire at the ski resort of Crans-Montana. They say more than 100 others were injured, many of them seriously. The fire broke out early in the morning in a bar packed with people celebrating the New Year. The cause is still under investigation, but the authorities don't think it was a terror attack. Also: New US travel restrictions have come into force for people from dozens of countries; more than half of them in Africa. New York City has its first Muslim and South Asian mayor as Zoran Mamdani was sworn in at midnight in the historic City Hall subway station, and how one village in China makes 80 per cent of all red lanterns for New Year celebrations.

The mystery fund that played God and wreaked havoc on the stock market

This episode revisits one of The Ken's most consequential stories from 2025. When journalist Anand Kalyanaramn started investigating unusual patterns in India's options market, he uncovered alleged manipulation on a massive scale. Someone was controlling market movements to guarantee profits—making billions while regular traders lost everything. SEBI identified Jane Street as the culprit; and the firm is appealing the allegation. Today, Anand explains how the alleged scheme worked, why India was vulnerable, and what this landmark case means for the future of fair markets. Daybreak is produced from the newsroom of The Ken, India’s first subscriber-only business news platform. Subscribe for more exclusive, deeply-reported, and analytical business stories.
