Sonia Mathur, Senior Advocate designated by the Delhi High Court in 2017 with over three decades of experience, is ironically one of the most soft-spoken professionals I have met.

Vivek Dempo - of the Dempo family of GOA hails from 16 generations of wealth and lineage and talks about the incubation, growth, and importance of #restoring heritage. The patriarch Vasantrao Shrinivas Sinai Dempo (born in 1916 remains a formidable name as an Indian industrialist and philanthropist from Goa. Starting from the mining business he founded in 1941, the Dempo has now grown to include interests in shipbuilding, minerals, foods, iron and steel, education, sports, philanthropy travel, and construction.This episode takes you on a journey of #konkani #catholic and #hindu colors of Goa which is more a reflection on #India's complex and beautiful fabric.Standing on the lawns of Dempo Niwas, a 150-year-old house, I walk you through the corridors of history when #jointfamilies worked, joint #kitchens spread love and the value systems of the elders were passed down and revered.

I had the honor of sitting down with the elusive Mr. Hormusji N. Cama, Chairman and key custodian of a massive responsibility, Mumbai Samachar - a true heritage brand. Its journey began on 1st July 1822, as Bombay Samachar, and was printed to alert the tradesmen about the arrival and departure of ships at the Bombay docks. Over 200+ years and counting, the newspaper is printed in Gujarati and remains Asia's oldest continuously published newspaper.Mr. Hormusji N. Cama has served as the Chairman of the Audit Bureau of Circulations (ABC) for the year 2018–2019. He gave back to society & the news landscape by previously serving two terms as the President of the Indian Newspaper Society (INS) and held leadership roles as the Chairman of the Press Trust of India (PTI) and the Media Research Users Council (MRUC).An active board member of INS, PTI, and MRUC, his family has been the custodian of Mumbai Samachar since the 1930s. Witnessing the complex history of India, the Mumbai Samachar still sells for Rs 10 and is thinking about revising the prices as he believes good, verified, trusted content is king.He mentioned one thing that impacted me deeply, specially in this age of “quick news." He said he preferred holding back the news, to fact-check rather than release it. That is the kind of responsibility that is so badly required in today’s news journalism.
