The 23-year-old is mastering himself as a DOP (Director of Photography) as he began working as an Assistant DOP from the fields of Punjab to the global frames of cinema.

From capturing the golden hues of the wheat fields to framing the daily life in the village, his journey began with a simple camera and an insatiable curiosity.

From an early age, Ramandeep’s dreams fueled his determination to master the art of cinematography. His talent caught the eye of local filmmakers, leading to his first significant break in the 2017 short film ‘Chabeel.’ The project, set against the rustic backdrop of Punjab, became a canvas for Ramandeep’s visual storytelling, showcasing his ability to transform the ordinary into the extraordinary.

Earlier this year, he worked in ‘Piya Pardesh,’ a music video sung by Sunil Borana and Neha Aaswani. Each frame in ‘Piya Pardesh’ proves that his growth as a visual storyteller will be beyond geographical boundaries.Recently returning from Russia, Ramandeep’s is set for various other travel journeys for work.

Singh’s role as an Assistant DOP has evolved beyond capturing landscapes; it now includes orchestrating the visual narrative of international projects. “My journey began amidst the green fields of Majhuke, and now, I find myself capturing the diverse landscapes of the world”, says Ramandeep making his mark in the industry.

Looking at his incredible journey, Ramandeep Singh’s story resonates with aspiring artists in Majhuke and beyond. From the simplicity of village life to the grandeur of cinema, his journey reflects the limitless possibilities that passion and perseverance can unfold.

In a nutshell, the young village boy is not just framing scenes, but he is framing a narrative of dreams, proving that success knows no geographical constraints. The world is witnessing the rise of a young cinematographer, and Majhuke, with its fields and stories, proudly claims him as its own.

Crypto  DeFi Decentralized Finance Ecosystems is Getting A Boost On Social Media.

The Economic Times on dated 22 Aug. 2023 released an article about Digital assets and mainstream adoption: Changing paradigm of personal finance.

Synopsis:

Moreover, the concept of financial literacy has gained prominence, urging people to take charge of their economic well-being. As a result, the personal finance industry like DeFi Decentralised Finance systems has witnessed a revolution, placing a stronger emphasis on convenience, transparency, and user-centric solutions to cater to the demands of today’s lenders and borrowers.

The inception of digital assets traces its origins to 1998, marked by Nick Szabo’s visionary concept of ‘bit gold’ – a decentralized digital asset. Cut to 2023, cryptos are the most well-known digital assets with more than 20,000 of them in circulation.

What Is Decentralized Finance ( DeFi) and How Does It Work?

Decentralized finance ( DeFi) is an emerging model for organizing and enabling cryptocurrency-based transactions, exchanges and financial services. DeFi‘s core premise is that there is no centralized authority to dictate or control operations.

Decentralised Finance uses the blockchain technology that cryptocurrencies use. A blockchain is a distributed and secured database or ledger. Applications called dApps are used to handle transactions and run the blockchain.

Uses of  DeFi :

Peer-to-peer (P2P) financial transactions are one of the core premises behind  DeFi. A  P2P DeFi transaction is where two parties agree to exchange cryptocurrency for goods or services without a third party involved.8

In  DeFi, P2P can meet an individual’s loan needs, and an algorithm would match peers that agree on the lender’s terms, and a loan is issued. Payments from P2P are made via a decentralized application, or  dApps, and follow the same process in the blockchain.

The dApps MetaMask the leading self-custodial wallet app which have 1cr + users, listed some of the best DeFi Dapps across the most popular ecosystems including Decentralized Lending and borrowing Finance dApps. Like Aave, Compound Finance on Ethereum Blockchain and venture Crypto Crowd Finance  on BNB Blockchain and also Curve, DeFi Server, MakerDAO CDP, Nexus Mutual, PoolTogther, Pickle Finance, Token Sets, Yearn, Zapper, Zerion, pTokens etc. on Ethereum Blockchain.

Moreover, the concept of financial literacy has gained prominence, urging people to take charge of their economic well-being. As a result, the personal finance industry has witnessed a revolution, placing a stronger emphasis on convenience, transparency, and user-centric solutions to cater to the demands of today’s investors.

Increasing crypto investments over the years
Between 2018 and 2020, the worldwide user base of crypto experienced a substantial growth of almost 190%, and this growth trend accelerated even further in 2021, 2022 and 2023.

Over 700,000 people officially signed up globally and more than 100 Indian businesses took part.

2^nd February 2023 — Veganuary, the global organisation encouraging people to try vegan in January and beyond, has again broken all previous records and welcomed more participants than ever before. 706,695 people officially signed-up from nearly every country in the world. Only Vatican City and North Korea (where the internet is banned) are missing from the official list of participants for 2023. India broke its last year’s record with more than 90,000 sign ups this year.

The campaign’s social media presence also continues to grow around the world with #Veganuary now having more than 1.9 million posts on Instagram and over 300 million people engaging with Veganuary’s international social media channels in January 2023. The movement’s popularity in India has been driven partly through the 10 Indian Ambassadors and supporters from the fields of movies, professional sports, fitness, mountaineering and professional chefs.

Corporate participation has also seen a surge in 2023, with the number of Indian businesses taking part in Veganuary doubling from the previous year. Major national brands, retailers, and restaurants, including BigBasket, Nature’s Basket, Swiggy Instamart, Baskin Robbins, Wingreens World, and many more joined Veganuary by introducing new products, promotions, and special menu items, while creating specialized marketing campaigns for plant-based products.

Mohit Khattar, CEO, Graviss Foods Pvt Ltd. Said “Baskin Robbins has always aimed to give its consumers the very best in indulgence. For its Vegan consumers, this includes the option to enjoy plant based and dairy free (vegan) versions of popular Baskin Robbins flavours! Veganism is becoming popular day by day and Baskin Robbins is excited to celebrate with its vegan consumers through participation in Veganuary.”

Amrut Mehta, Director of Little Italy said “I am proud to partner with Veganuary this year, as I believe this platform will inspire people to try vegan to protect the planet and improve human health. Indians are finally ready for veganism, and technological advancements have eased the introduction of new products. At Little Italy, being a vegetarian brand the next step for us was to have a vegan menu and now that it’s finally being well-accepted in India that’s great news for everyone. Making the pizza feel cheesier with vegan cheese or making pasta creamier using a plant-based alternative was a challenge. However, we saw the fruits of labour when even our non-vegan customers began adopting and loving the vegan menu.”

To enable people to take part in the campaign in ways that suit their lifestyle in an ever-changing world, Veganuary launched two new platforms for public participation this year – a 31-day YouTube series providing helpful tips and advice, and the weekly Veganuary Podcast featuring celebrity chefs, actors, and vegan influencers.

Reflecting on the success of the 2023 campaign, Veganuary’s India head Prashanth Vishwanath says: “Indians are clearly convinced about the multiple advantages of a vegan diet, and have given it a shot in record numbers. Veganuary understands the science of behaviour change, and its fun, engaging approach has helped people explore plant-based foods. We have been successful in creating a favourable ecosystem for anyone trying vegan by partnering with businesses, workplaces, and influencers to raise awareness and make vegan foods more accessible”

First launched in the UK in January 2014, Veganuary has been increasing its global reach for several years; opening offices in the US, Germany and Chile in 2019; Argentina and Brazil in 2020; and India in 2021. Official Veganuary campaigns also take place in Italy, France, Switzerland, South Africa, Australia, Singapore, and Mexico in collaboration with local organizations. Veganuary’s five-year strategy envisions the campaign expanding into ten more countries by 2027.
