Shah Rukh Khan, Anil Kapoor Shows Support On Anupam Khers Tanvi the Great
Mumbai : The trailer of actor Anupam Kher's upcoming directorial 'Tanvi The Great' has received widespread acclaim from fans and celebrities, including Shah Rukh Khan and Anil Kapoor. The film, which tells the story of a young autistic woman aspiring to join the Indian Army, has sparked anticipation ahead of its theatrical release on July 18. Taking to his X handle, Shah Rukh Khan commended Kher's vision and courage, writing, "To my friend @AnupamPKher who has always taken chances... whether it's acting, filmmaking or life!! The trailer of #TanviTheGreat is looking awesome. All the best on this journey!!" To my friend @AnupamPKher who has always taken chances… whether it's acting, filmmaking or life!! The trailer of #TanviTheGreat is looking awesome. All the best on this journey!! — Shah Rukh Khan (@iamsrk) June 30, 2025 Responding to Khan's post, Kher expressed gratitude, reposting the message with the caption, "Thank you, my dearest friend, for your love and appreciation." Anil Kapoor also lauded the film in a social media post, calling it "powerful, heartfelt, and deeply inspiring." Kapoor added, "Some stories stay with you long after the screen fades to black...#TanviTheGreat is one of them. All my prayers and luck for the success of this labour of love." View this post on Instagram A post shared by anilskapoor (@anilskapoor) 'Tanvi The Great' has already made its mark on the international stage. The film had its global premiere at the Cannes Film Festival earlier this year, where it received a standing ovation. It has since been screened at the New York Indian Film Festival, Houston, and Austin, drawing attention for both its narrative and performances. Notably, Oscar winner Robert De Niro was among the attendees at its New York gala screening. Speaking to ANI, Anupam Kher shared that the film is about "igniting the goodness in human beings," which he believes has become buried in today's fast-paced world. "We all believe in goodness... but situations have made us forget it. When people watch this film, those original emotions return. The tears of viewers, the reaction to the music by MM Keeravani -- it's all because we are connecting to that lost part of ourselves," Kher said. The film stars debutant Shubhangi Dutt as 21-year-old Tanvi Raina, a young woman with autism determined to fulfil her late father's dream: to salute the Indian flag at Siachen, the highest battlefield in the world. Her journey, as portrayed in the trailer, challenges societal expectations and institutional limitations. In an interview, Dutt admitted she never imagined her first film would be a socially driven drama. "We've all grown up watching typical Bollywood stories, but something like this... I never saw it coming," she said. Despite her initial surprise, Dutt expressed deep gratitude, "Even ten years from now, I don't think anything can match Tanvi The Great. This will always be special." Kher emphasised that the film touches on a "universal problem", the underrepresentation and misunderstanding of individuals with autism. "It's a film from India, for the world," he said, adding that the film's success in international markets reflected its broad resonance. Veteran actors Jackie Shroff, Boman Irani, Pallavi Joshi, and Karan Tacker also feature in prominent roles. Music for the film is composed by Academy Award winner M. M. Keeravani. The project is backed by Anupam Kher Studios in collaboration with NFDC, with global distribution managed by Excel Entertainment and AA Films. The film is scheduled for a nationwide theatrical release on July 18, 2025.

AI can never replace humans, but upskilling is essential, says Dr. S. Rajesh, Director of Saveetha Engineering College
AI cannot replace humans, but humans need to upskill themselves and have a different set of skills to thrive in this AI era, said Dr. S. Rajesh, Director of Saveetha Engineering College . He was in conversation with The Times of India on the topic, 'Preparing students for international careers and preparing engineers for Industry 5.0'. Explaining that AI is just another tool, he said, 'AI can never be as sensitive as humans, and it cannot have emotions like humans. So, AI cannot replace humans. But humans need to upskill themselves and have a different set of skills to thrive in the world.' Times Conversations with Dr. S. Rajesh, Director of Saveetha Engineering College At a time when AI is taking over all aspects of our lives, emotional intelligence is vital for everyone, especially Gen Z and Gen Alpha , he said. Referring to a book titled '21 Skills for the 21st Century by Yuval Noah Harari', he said, 'The author stresses the importance of emotional intelligence, including resilience and adaptability. Technology is changing every day, and skills that students have learned will become irrelevant, so much so that they may have to adapt to new jobs, new technologies throughout their lives. Lifelong learning becomes vital. For this, emotional intelligence is the backbone in today's era.' Emotional intelligence, resilience, adaptability, and soft skills become as important as technological skills in today's era, he said, adding that individuals should be equipped to use AI tools and possess emotional intelligence and soft skills to thrive in the 21st century. Talking about the industrial revolution, Rajesh said that Industry 5.0 is all about making Industry 4.0 technologies like AI, robotics, and IoT as human-centric, ethical, and empathetic as possible for a sustainable future. Explaining the importance of interdisciplinary learning, he said, 'Just having skills in computer science or AI is not going to help anyone. Individuals should have knowledge of one or two domains in addition to AI skills. For instance, an engineer should know about banking, fintech, or the finance market to develop an AI tool for the finance market.' Recalling the times when humanities and arts and science courses were losing their charm and everybody wanted to become engineers, he said that the humanities are making a comeback in the AI era since AI is going to do most of the coding and other tasks. 'To thrive in this era, humans need to have a different kind of skill set. We will need engineers who are emotionally intelligent, good in humanities, and have domain knowledge. People should have a balance of all these three domains,' he added. Earlier, T-shaped learning was considered important, where students were expected to have broad knowledge of everything and deep knowledge of any one aspect, he said, adding that these days, students are expected to have broad knowledge of many things and deep knowledge of quite a few things, and this is called comb-shaped learning. AI turns out to be a useful tool to acquire skills. 'Learning will improve exponentially during one-to-one tutoring. But, with the Indian population and economics, it does not allow everyone to have a personalized tutor. But with the advent of AI, it has become possible,' he explained. AI can always help and support humans but never replace them, he said. Quoting the CEO of Google DeepMind , Demis Hassabis , he said, 'Hassabis tells us AI can help in drug discoveries and personalized treatments, and it is not very far. Within a decade or so, AI will help us to live a healthy and happy life.' Hinting that educational institutions are grappling to catch up with evolving technologies, Rajesh said that they should have the intent and attitude to change and adapt to new technologies. At Saveetha Engineering College, they have adopted lifelong learning as the philosophy of their curriculum, and it means nothing but learning how to learn, he said, explaining that whatever technology a student learns is going to become irrelevant by the time they graduate, and the only skill that a student can learn is lifelong learning. This skill – lifelong learning – cannot be taught; instead, it needs to be self-learned, he said, adding that students at their colleges are learning skills by making projects. Revealing that they have acquired the world's fastest GPU provided by NVIDIA at their Centre for AI and ML, he said that they are giving real-time projects to students, through which they learn new technologies. It has become essential for educational institutions to invest in new technologies, he said, explaining the evolution of physical AI, agentic AI, and Artificial General Intelligence (AGI). 'We are equipping ourselves with emerging technologies and replacing labs with Centres of Excellence ,' he added. Hinting that Gen Alpha and Gen Z generations prefer personalised learning and autonomy, Rajesh said that their college has adopted FlexiLearn , which is unique for India but not in developed countries. Under FlexiLearn , students can choose the subject, faculty, domain, and the schedule they want from the first semester onwards, he said, explaining that unlike a conventional college, here students can deep dive into technology subjects from the first semester onwards and learn fundamentals of engineering whenever it is required. This flexibility will enable students to learn future technologies and develop decision-making skills and time management skills, he added. He explained that FlexiLearn helps students build collaboration skills by having them sit with different peers in each class. As a result, their communication abilities are also improving. He added that the programme encourages interdisciplinary learning, which is a vital skill for thriving in the 21st century. 'At the college, we have a platform called GAME (Gamified Hybrid Adaptive Modular Education), and about 30% of subjects are offered in the game concept, where subjects are divided into smaller modules', he added.
