India-born restaurateur Asma Khan among 195 women features in record-setting song
The song has been produced to raise awareness about gender equality and to ignite a global movement to uplift people through the transformative power of sound healing frequencies.
The Frequency School, co-founded by US Grammy-nominated and multi-platinum music producer Maejor, Martina Fuchs, Kingsley M, Brandon Lee and Aaron Dawson, has produced the powerful and universal campaign which premiered during the 55th Annual Meeting of the World Economic Forum in Davos-Klosters, Switzerland, from January 20 to 24.
"It has always been my dream to produce the first song in history featuring every country on the planet. Our vision was to unite 195 ordinary women from all walks of life in this pioneering and groundbreaking initiative to advocate for gender equality and the rights of women and girls, and to help people struggling with mental health issues," said Fuchs, who is also the executive producer of "195".
"Breaking this record is only the beginning, we are on a global mission to make our world a more peaceful place," she said.
Asma Khan, an immigrant to the UK and star of Netflix's Chef's Table, is one of the UK's most prominent female chefs.
She is the founder and owner of Darjeeling Express, a well-known London-based Indian restaurant known for its all-female kitchen and homestyle Indian cuisine. The restaurant features dishes from Khan's family recipes and the cooking traditions of her upbringing in Kolkata.
In 2024, TIME magazine named her one of the world's 100 most influential people. She is a chef advocate for the UN World Food Programme and holds honorary fellowships from Queen's College, Oxford, and King's College, London, where she earned a PhD in British Constitutional Law.

Where is Kamchatka? Russian peninsula rocked by 8.8 magnitude earthquake, causes tsunami in US, Japan
Russia Earthquake and Tsunami Today: A powerful 8.8 magnitude earthquake rocked the Kamchatka peninsula in Russia today, triggering a tsunami in parts of the country as well as in Japan. A tsunami warning is also in place for Hawaii, Alaska and Oregon. Much of the West Coast spanning Canada's British Columbia province, Washington state and California were also under a tsunami advisory. Officials from countries with a Pacific coastline in North and South America -- including the United States, Mexico and Ecuador -- issued warnings to avoid affected beaches. The earthquake today in Kamchatka peninsula was among the 10 most biggest recorded till date. Kamchatka is a 1,250-kilometre-long peninsula located in the Far East of Russia. The Pacific Ocean and the Sea of Okhotsk serve as the eastern and western coastlines of the peninsula, respectively. The climate of the Kamchatka peninsula is severe, with prolonged, cold, and snowy winters and wet, cool summers. Kamchatka has a long history of peninsular unrest. The peninsula falls on the volatile "Ring of Fire" — a seismically active belt that circles the Pacific Ocean. The Ring of Fire is one of the most earthquake-prone zones in the world, making Kamchatka a seismically susceptible area. In 1952, a magnitude 9.0 quake caused significant damage in Kamchatka. However, no deaths were reported despite a tsunami that hit Hawaii with 9.1-meter (30-foot) waves. Interestingly, the Kamchatka peninsula has a link with American sci-fi drama Stranger Things, one of the biggest hits on Netflix. The show, which follows a story on unearthly beings from the 'upside down', leads viewers to Russia's Kamchatka in Season 4, the last released season. Stranger Things Season 4 shows Jim Hopper being captured by Russians, and kept in a prison in Kamchatka. The region assumes significance in the show for harbouring creatures from the 'upside down', including a 'demogorgon'.

I don't want my partner to change me and I wouldn't want him to change because we got attracted to each other because we were ourselves.' STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD Men in toxic relationships? There are men also who are in a toxic relationship. The unfortunate fact is that when they come out with their stories, they're ridiculed. That's also because of patriarchy because boys are not supposed to cry. They can't complain as they are supposed to have this front that 'I take care of the family. I'll take care of everybody. I can't hurt. I'm not weak because it's not accepted'. So, it's not that only women are facing the wrath of patriarchy, even men are. Fatima Sana Shaikh is riding high on the success of Metro In Dino and Netflix's Aap Jaisa Koi. In an interview with Hauterrfly, the actress revealed how her longest relationship ended because of her choice of clothes. Shaikh said, 'For some reason, it comes down to clothes for a lot of men. 'Both of us had broken up, and we decided not to be together because it was his conditioning.' The actress added, 'It wasn't like my partner would decide don't wear this, but he would come aggressively and feel that I cheated on him. Intellectually, he could understand everything and state how he understood everything but had the gutted reaction and confessed to not knowing what to do about it.'
