Spine A Medical Miracle And Corporate Necessity For Self-Belief: Gautam Adani
Mumbai: The spine is both a medical miracle and a corporate necessity for self-belief, said Gautam Adani, the Chairman of Adani Group, on Friday. Addressing the 5th Annual Conference of the Society for Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery - Asia Pacific (SMISS-AP) in Mumbai, the Adani Group Chairman referred to the spine as an important part of the human body, as well as for making decisions in life. "The spine you mend is the ultimate architecture needed for the resilience of the human body. And just as you restore resilience to our bodies, leadership is about restoring resilience to the organisation," Gautam Adani said. "Perhaps today, this shared metaphor will remind us that a spine is both -- a medical miracle, and a corporate necessity for self-belief," the Adani Group Chairman added. Gautam Adani also saluted healthcare workers for their humanity and courage. "Your humanity is what restores your patients' dignity. It gives them the strength and the courage to stand tall again to the world," Gautam Adani said. "Doctors represent hope. You may be spine doctors to the world, but for your patients, you are something far greater," the Adani Group Chairman added. Calling "Munna Bhai MBBS" his all-time favourite movie for the message it shares, Gautam Adani said that the character Munna Bhai goes on healing people with humanity. The Adani Group Chairman noted that "true healing goes far beyond is hope, healing is humanity". Further, referring to "resilience of spine", Gautam Adani said he set forth to Mumbai to chart his own path. "I made my first bold decision at the age of 16, left for Mumbai without a degree and without a job, except with a burning desire to define my own path," said the Adani Group Chairman, Gautam Adani.

"Not Just For The Laughter But...":Gautam Adani On Why He Likes Munna Bhai Film
Rajkumar Hirani's Munna Bhai M.B.B.S served as a reminder that "true healing goes far beyond surgery", Adani Group Chairman Gautam Adani on Friday said, as he spoke about the movie that is one of his all-time favourites, "not just for the laughter, but for the message". Mr Adani was speaking at the 5th Annual Conference of the Society for Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery - Asia Pacific, when he shared an anecdote about his liking for the Sanjay Dutt-starrer movie. "Let me share something personal. One of my all-time favourite films is Munna Bhai MBBS. Not just for the laughter, but for the message. Munnabhai was not just healing people with medicine; he was healing them with humanity. It reminded us all that true healing goes far beyond surgery," he said. "One of my all-time favourite films is Munna Bhai MBBS. Not just for the laughter, but for the message. Munna Bhai was not just healing people with medicine; he was healing them with humanity. It reminded us all that true healing goes far beyond surgery. Healing is hope. Healing is humanity," he added. Healing is hope and healing is humanity, the industrialist said. "As Munna Bhai said - be it a magic trick or a surgery - there is only one thing common in both, and that is, humanity," he said. Mr Adani recalled the time when he made the bold decision of leaving for Mumbai at the age of 16. "I bought a second-class train ticket and left for Mumbai with no degree, no job, and no backup except a burning desire to define my own path. If you want something from your heart, then the whole universe becomes interested in introducing him to you," he said. In Mumbai, he said, he began learning to "sort and polish diamonds". "Each stone I polished taught me patience, precision, and perseverance. My first deal with a Japanese buyer earned me Rs 10,000 in commission. The money never mattered. The moment did - because that was the moment when I realized that my beliefs would have to always outpace my doubts," he said. "And that is the truth about entrepreneurship. It never begins with a grand vision. It begins with a spark of conviction," he added. It begins with the courage to act, even when the future is uncertain, Mr Adani said. "And it begins with the willingness to dream alone and then walk alone, before others join the path," he added.

When Sanjay Dutt recalled being ‘nervous' while shooting with father Sunil Dutt in Munna Bhai: ‘Just like in the film, in real life, he scolds me a lot'
Everyone remembers the iconic jadoo ki jhappi moment from Munna Bhai M.B.B.S., when Sunil Dutt's character forgives his son, played by Sanjay Dutt, and the two embrace. It's a scene that continues to resonate with fans, so much so that it was even recreated in Sanju, the biopic on Sanjay Dutt's life. In an old interview with Wild Films India, Sanjay Dutt reflected on the film, his character, and most significantly, working with his father Sunil Dutt for the very first time on screen. 'It was a great experience working with him. I'd never done a scene or a film with him before, so it was a big moment, and I was scared from the beginning, but he eased me up,' he said. 'Nervous just because he is my father and I respect him a lot.' He added that the warmth and tension seen between them on screen was a reflection of their real-life bond. 'I think they saw what we are like in real life, as he scolds me a lot, in the film too.' Sanjay also recalled his first reaction to the film's narration by director Rajkumar Hirani, saying he quite literally 'fell off the chair' and instantly agreed to do it.

Rajkumar Hirani once revealed that even after he called 'cut,' Sunil and Sanjay Dutt remained locked in that embrace, both in tears. It was a deeply emotional moment, not just for them, but for the entire crew who witnessed it up close. In fact, in a recent exclusive conversation with SCREEN, Rajkumar revealed that he has an idea for Munna Bhai 3 that he's genuinely excited about, and has already begun working on it. He also joked that if he doesn't make another Munna Bhai film soon, Sanjay Dutt might get angry with him.
