For generations, Indian women moved through perimenopause and menopause in silence — misdiagnosed, dismissed, or simply left to figure it out alone. That's changing. Driven by social media, celebrity candour, and a growing wellness economy projected to hit $24 billion globally by 2030, menopause is finally becoming a public conversation. But with awareness comes noise — supplements, coaches, and brand tie-ins are flooding a space where women are looking for genuine answers. This episode of ET Deep Dive is based on Nupur Amarnath’s story tracing how menopause went from stigma to storytelling, who's driving that shift in India, and what still needs to change.

What does it take to move India's manufacturing from 16% to 25% of GDP? Two industry heavyweights, Vinod Kumar, Partner & Leader – Manufacturing, PwC India and Srihari Kaninghat, Group Chief Digital Officer, JSW Group sit down with host Anirban Chowdhury to cut through the hype and get real about AI on the shop floor. From blast furnaces to boardrooms, they break down how AI is quietly revolutionising steel production, slashing material costs, predicting machine failures before they happen and why none of it matters if you can't get past the pilot stage. But here's the twist: they're not worried about robots stealing jobs. They want AI to make manufacturing cool again, attractive enough to pull India's brightest engineering minds back from IT cubicles and into the heart of industry. This one's for anyone who thinks AI is just a chatbot. Think again.

As global tensions ripple through trade, Indian exporters are beginning to feel the strain. In this episode of The Morning Brief, host Anirban Chowdhury speaks with exporters of leather products, textile and gems and jewellery as well as Dr. Arun Singh, Chief Economist at Dun & Bradstreet, India to unpack how the Middle East crisis is impacting business realities. From rising input costs in leather to shrinking demand in knitwear and a sharp drop in gems and jewellery exports, the conversation traces the widening impact across sectors. With supply chains under pressure and the Strait of Hormuz still in jeopardy, the moot question is: how resilient are India’s export industries in the face of prolonged global instability?
