A nishani.in deep dive into how your thoughts are being engineered—without your permission. First, a blunt truth If you think hacking only happens to computers, congratulations—you’re already halfway hacked. Cognitive hacking is not about stealing your data. It’s about stealing your judgment. No password required. No OTP sent. Just your...
For years, Narendra Modi and the BJP cultivated an image that was almost mythological. Tireless. Selfless. Always working. Always thinking about the country. Social media posters told us he sleeps four hours, works eighteen, takes no leave, and carries India on his shoulders like Atlas with a saffron shawl. That...
Six humanoid robots walked onto a stage in Chengdu and danced in perfect sync in front of 18,000 screaming humans. Not at a tech expo. Not inside a lab. At a full-blown Wang Leehom concert. Lights. Noise. Chaos. Music blasting. Crowd roaring. And the robots didn’t glitch. They didn’t freeze....
A child doesn’t wake up one morning and decide to end his life. That decision is manufactured — slowly, daily, by humiliation, fear, isolation, and a system that keeps telling him: “Adjust.” “Ignore it.” “Kids will be kids.” A nine-year-old carrying such weight is not a tragedy of fate. It...
A Warning the Next Generation Still Refuses to Hear. 2025 will be remembered by Indian cinema as a year that quietly closed two powerful chapters. Sreenivasan — the conscience of Malayalam cinema.

It’s about intent, messaging, and the increasingly dangerous overlap between entertainment, shock...
A political thriller about power, perception, and the slow disappearance of opposition It’s election night somewhere in India. Another state. Another defeat. The results flash on TV screens like a bad rerun—different geography, same ending. And the question returns, louder each time: Is Congress finished? Or is something far more...
Why Arnab’s sudden questions matter — and why Ravish never needed permission For nearly a decade, Indian prime-time news followed a predictable script. You could mute the TV and still know who the villain was, who the hero was, and who would never be questioned. Then, suddenly, something changed. The...
India is a $3.9 trillion economy. Ethiopia is around $127 billion. That makes India roughly 30 times richer. Yet when many Indians see visuals of Addis Ababa, a disturbing question pops up: Why does their capital sometimes look more like the “Smart City” we were promised? Clean roads. Visible green...
Some people entertain you. Some people educate you. A very rare few expose you to yourself. Sreenivasan belonged to the last category. Today, Malayalam cinema did not just lose an actor or a director. It lost its most honest mirror — a man who used laughter as a weapon, sarcasm...
