(Picture Courtesy: Facebook) Veteran actor Suresh Gopi participated in the International Yoga Day celebrations held on Saturday at Jain University, Kakkanad, Kochi. Suresh Gopi on his yoga practice Speaking at the event, Suresh Gopi opened up about his personal journey with yoga. He revealed that while he initially only observed Yoga Day by trying a few postures, he began taking the practice seriously from July 2023. Kaval is a movie that is in Suresh Gopi's comfort zone: Nithin Renji Panicker 'Earlier, I used to do a few yoga postures just on Yoga Day. But from last July, I began taking yoga seriously.' he shared. "I practiced consistently for about 45 minutes to an hour every day until February this year, when I had to stop due to illness. Still, during that time, I felt my body becoming remarkably comfortable and flexible," he added. The actor also stressed the importance of integrating yoga into everyday life for its mental clarity, physical strength, and overall wellness benefits. 'JSK' set for June 27 release 'Janaki Vs State of Kerala', where Suresh Gopi will be seen playing a lawyer, is scheduled to release on June 27. The movie is directed by Pravin Narayanan who has also written the script of this court drama. Apart from Suresh Gopi, the film also has Anupama Parameswaran, Madhav Suresh, Divya Pillai, Askar Ali, Kottayam Ramesh and many others in pivotal roles. On the other hand, Suresh Gopi's previous hit film was the investigative thriller 'Garudan' which received 3.5 star rating from ETimes with our official review reading, "There is one specific point towards the end that can be guessed immediately before the scene takes place but it takes nothing out of the movie even though the audiences were screaming the plot twist. The punch does land and it's a satisfying watch. Midhun Manuel Thomas faltered at some point with the script but despite that the film is enjoyable and it recovers towards the end. The story by Jinesh is appealing while it does have some expected elements. While it is a thriller about a rapist, it doesn't make audiences cringe. There is a subtlety with which it is carried that makes it palatable for audiences who do not prefer to see gore on screen."

Mark Rober's Spark of Innovation Lights Up Indian Youth with ₹50 Lakh Jugaad Challenge
India has always been a land of jugaad—clever, low-cost innovations born out of necessity and pure imagination. And now, that spirit has found its global spotlight, thanks to none other than Mark Rober, the YouTube superstar and former NASA engineer who's made backyard science a global phenomenon. In his maiden visit to India, Rober isn't just meeting fans—he's unlocking a wave of grassroots creativity with his ambitious ₹50 lakh 'Jugaad Innovation Contest.' Rober's visit has quickly evolved into a cultural and scientific phenomenon. He's toured cities like Mumbai, Delhi, and Bengaluru, connecting with students, creators, and DIY innovators. At each stop, his message is simple but powerful: Science is for everyone—especially when it's fun. It's this very mindset that fuels the contest he's launched specifically for India: a mission to uncover the country's most original, mind-bending inventions using nothing but everyday items. The #MarkRoberJugaad contest, open from April 30 to September 15, 2025, is inviting Indian residents aged 8 and above to post a video of their unique homemade solution on Facebook, Instagram, X, or YouTube. Whether it's a bottle cap fan or a makeshift washing machine powered by a cycle, creativity is the only currency here. Contestants must ensure their social media profiles are public, and most importantly, submit their video link at posting alone doesn't qualify as an entry. But this trip isn't just about competitions. Rober is truly immersing himself in Indian creator culture. In Mumbai, he visited the studios of CarryMinati, India's roasting king, for a wild video where science meets sarcasm. In Delhi, he filmed with Tech Burner, breaking down the secret tech behind India's best jugaads. In Pune, he joined forces with Mr. Indian Hacker for one of the most explosive, large-scale experiments the internet has ever seen—think water rockets, explosive rice cookers, and gravity-defying machines made from scrap. Meanwhile, a flavorful adventure unfolded with Curly Tales, where Rober explored Indian street food science, turning pani puri into a molecular gastronomy experiment. And with Slay Point, viewers can expect a hilarious deep dive into everyday Indian life, peppered with unexpected scientific solutions to common problems. Perhaps the most unexpected collaboration is his special episode with Indian cricket star Hardik Pandya. Together, they analyzed the physics of swing bowling, tested bat angles, and even built a device to measure reaction time. 'This isn't just about cricket,' Rober said. 'It's about showing how science powers everything we love.' Rober's presence also shook up India's educational landscape when he made a surprise appearance at the Summit of Future at Jain University in Kochi. As a key guest at the RoboVerse exhibit, Rober explored India's rising potential in robotics, coding, and STEM education. Students at the summit got a chance to interact with robot dogs, AI-led tech labs, and Mark himself. 'This is the most energized I've ever felt in a student environment,' he remarked during his keynote. Behind all the cameras and collaborations, Rober's goal is deeply personal. Through his company CrunchLabs, he has long promoted STEM learning through play and creativity. With India's rich culture of improvisation and resourcefulness, he saw a natural partnership. 'Jugaad is engineering in its purest form,' he shared. 'You don't need a lab or funding—just imagination and a little bit of duct tape.' The contest will crown ten winners, each receiving ₹5 lakh and the chance to feature in a global video alongside Mark Rober. The judging panel will consider creativity, functionality, and the cleverness of how household materials are repurposed. With videos pouring in daily, and Indian youth now dreaming in cardboard, motors, and string, this visit is achieving more than just viral views. It's creating a shift in how science and creativity are seen—not as subjects or careers, but as tools for daily life. Rober's India chapter is still unfolding, but one thing is certain: he came for innovation, and he found a nation overflowing with it.
