"If we don't prioritise our own films with better showcasing, then I don't understand how we will grow." #AnuragKashyap hits out at Indian theatres for prioritising the Hollywood indie-horror hit #Obsession over local releases like his film #Bandar, #MainVaapasAaunga, #Governor, and #SingGeetham.

AP’s RE roadmap: Upstream: Attract ₹50,000 cr from Adani, Rel & Vedanta, who build industrial-scale mining & concentration and foray into midstream; cracking, separation & refining to REOs. And leverage Centre’s ₹7,300 cr REPM scheme for downstream metallurgy & sintered REPM mfg. The recent Russia visit & Giredmet proposal can arm AP in both mid & downstream capabilities: -REE refining & deep-processing hub in North AP -Full-cycle NdFeB PM mfg facility in Nellore; can potentially become a star showcase under REPM North AP could become India’s first commercial placer-deposit RE mega-hub. With 30% of India’s monazite sand reserves, such heavy-mineral processing is a multi-billion-dollar ecosystem beyond just defence-focused ops.

This is amazing, @Reuters. But which is this state in India with a progressive rare earth policy that has several majors lining up to invest over ₹50,000 cr in mining, processing and manufacturing? 😉 Turns out good policy is the most powerful rare earth of all! #ChooseSpeedChooseAP
