Zero Trust: Always Verify Access, Never Assume Trust
The End of Assumed Trust For many years, cybersecurity operated on a simple belief: if a user or device made it inside the network, it was safe. Firewalls created a perimeter, internal networks were labeled “trusted,” and everything outside was treated as suspicious. This approach worked when organizations were small, centralized, and predictable. But as technology evolved, that assumption became one of the biggest vulnerabilities in modern security.

My Top 10 Favorite Coldplay Songs
#1 - Fix You, Released 2005, X&Y Album Fix You is a song that is very near and dear to my heart. I learned to play it on the guitar when I was 12 years old and it was always one of my dad's favorites. It's a beautiful yet surreal song about offering support and guidance to those in the throws of grief. While the beginning alludes to feelings of regret and emotional exhaustion, trying your best but not succeeding, by the end, we are reminded to never give up. Healing and love can always be found, even in the darkest times, just know "lights will guide you home."

Shah Rukh Khan and Priyanka Chopra Are “Like-Minded Personalities,” Says Producer: “We Treated the Actress So Badly”. AI-Generated.
A candid reflection on Bollywood dynamics, professional chemistry, and lessons learned Few Bollywood pairings have sparked as much fascination, admiration, and controversy as Shah Rukh Khan and Priyanka Chopra. Their on-screen chemistry was undeniable, and their professional collaboration produced memorable performances that still resonate with audiences. Years later, comments from a film producer describing them as “like-minded personalities” — while also admitting that Priyanka Chopra was “treated badly” — have reopened conversations about power, fairness, and accountability in the Hindi film industry. The remarks are not just about two stars. They touch on deeper issues within Bollywood, especially how success, rumors, and industry politics can shape careers in very different ways. A Partnership That Caught Attention When Shah Rukh Khan and Priyanka Chopra worked together, audiences immediately noticed their natural ease and intensity on screen. Both actors are known for their ambition, sharp intelligence, and willingness to push creative boundaries. According to the producer, these shared traits made them “like-minded.” Shah Rukh Khan, often called the King of Bollywood, built his career on risk-taking and emotional depth. Priyanka Chopra, meanwhile, carved her space through versatility, confidence, and a refusal to be boxed into stereotypes revealed how quickly an actress could be sidelined when narratives turned uncomfortable. The Admission That Sparked Debate The producer’s statement, particularly the line “We treated the actress so badly,” struck a nerve. It suggested a rare moment of honesty in an industry that often avoids acknowledging its mistakes. While the producer did not go into specific details, the admission aligns with long-standing discussions about how Priyanka Chopra’s career in Bollywood slowed down despite her success. Many observers believe that unspoken rules, rumors, and power dynamics played a role in her professional isolation during that period. For fans, the statement confirmed what had long been suspected: talent and success do not always protect artists from unfair treatment. Power Dynamics in Bollywood Bollywood has historically been shaped by close-knit networks. While these connections can help careers grow, they can also limit opportunities when someone falls out of favor. Priyanka Chopra’s experience highlights how actors outside dominant circles may face consequences, even without formal accusations or conflicts. The producer’s reflection brings attention to the imbalance that often exists between male superstars and female actors. While Shah Rukh Khan’s career continued to rise, Priyanka faced reduced opportunities — not because of lack of talent, but because of circumstances beyond her control. This imbalance is not unique to one individual. It reflects a broader industry issue that many actresses have spoken about over the years. Priyanka Chopra’s Reinvention Rather than fading away, Priyanka Chopra chose reinvention. She shifted her focus to international projects, becoming one of the few Indian actors to successfully cross over into Hollywood and global entertainment. Her move was bold and risky, but it paid off. From music to television to international films, Priyanka built a global identity that went far beyond Bollywood. In doing so, she changed the conversation — not just about herself, but about what Indian actors, especially women, can achieve on a global stage. The producer’s admission now adds context to that transition, suggesting it may not have been purely a choice, but also a response to limited opportunities at home. Shah Rukh Khan’s Silence and Legacy Shah Rukh Khan has largely remained silent on past controversies involving Priyanka Chopra. Known for maintaining dignity and restraint in public, he has avoided fueling speculation. His legacy in Bollywood remains immense, defined by decades of iconic performances and a massive global fan base. However, as the industry evolves, there is growing interest in examining how shows of power — intentional or not — influence careers around him. The producer’s comment does not accuse Khan directly, but it invites reflection on how systems protect some while excluding others. Changing Conversations in Bollywood What makes this moment significant is timing. Bollywood is slowly becoming more open to self-examination. Conversations around fairness, gender equality, and accountability are no longer limited to whispers. Producers, directors, and actors are increasingly acknowledging past mistakes. The statement about Priyanka Chopra reflects a broader realization that the industry must do better — not just in words, but in action. Audiences, too, are more aware and vocal. They demand transparency and respect for talent, regardless of gender or status. Why This Matters Now The producer’s candid admission is not about reopening old wounds. It is about learning. It reminds the industry that: Talent should not be sidelined by politics Professional relationships must be handled responsibly Silence can sometimes enable unfair treatment For younger actors watching today, the story serves as both a warning and an inspiration. It shows how resilience can overcome rejection, but also how important it is for industries to create safer, fairer environments. Conclusion: A Lesson Beyond Stardom The story of Shah Rukh Khan and Priyanka Chopra is not just about two stars. It is about ambition, power, and accountability in one of the world’s largest film industries. The producer’s admission — “We treated the actress so badly” — may not change the past, but it contributes to a more honest future. Priyanka Chopra’s global success stands as proof that talent finds a way, even when doors close. As Bollywood continues to evolve, such reflections offer hope that lessons learned will lead to a more inclusive and respectful industry — one where like-minded personalities are celebrated, not pushed aside.

Book Review: "Dancing by the Light of the Moon" by Gyles Brandreth
I love poetry and I love trying to memorise my favourite poems. Ever since I was a young girl, I've loved memorising poems like The Raven by Edgar Allan Poe (which I managed to do when I was about 13 years' old) and of course, the famed Vincent Malloy by Tim Burton (if you haven't seen it already I would say definitely go and watch it). Poetry can convey so much in a short space of time, and some of my favourite poets include Lord Byron, Percy Shelley and of course, John Keats. I'm a big fan of Romanticism as you can see, but when it comes to Gyles Brandreth - he has allowed me to explore these favourites whilst also presenting me with nostalgia for lost poets I haven't revisited. But best of all, I have discovered new poets I have not read before.
