Widely regarded as the first and most influential B2B jewellery trade fair of the year, IIJS Bharat – Signature 2026 brings together the entire global value chain at a time when market sentiment, sourcing strategies, and business direction for the year ahead begin to take shape.

The inaugural ceremony was graced by Chief Guest Sandrine Conseiller, CEO, De Beers Brands and Chair, Natural Diamond Council, and Guests of Honour Harsha Bangari, Managing Director, EXIM Bank and Saumen Bhaumik, Managing Director, CaratLane.

The inauguration took place in the presence of Kirit Bhansali, Chairman, GJEPC; Shaunak Parikh, Vice Chairman & Convener, National Exhibitions, GJEPC; and Sabyasachi Ray, Executive Director, GJEPC, along with members of the Committee of Administration, exhibitors, buyers, and leading stakeholders from across the global gem and jewellery industry.

IIJS Bharat – Signature 2026 is being held at two premier venues in Mumbai—Jio World Convention Centre (8–11 January 2026) and Bombay Exhibition Centre, NESCO, Goregaon (9–12 January 2026)—alongside IGJME Bharat – Signature 2026, the machinery and technology showcase.

Spanning over 1.25 lakh square metres, the exhibition brings together 1,600+ exhibitors across 3,300+ stalls, welcoming over 25,000 trade buyers from 800+ Indian cities, including 1,400 international buyers from 40 countries and 12 international buyer delegations. The show offers a comprehensive sourcing platform across gold, diamond, silver and studded jewellery, loose natural diamonds, coloured gemstones, couture and fine jewellery, lab-grown diamonds, and machinery and allied segments.

The Chief Guest, Ms. Sandrine Conseiller, CEO, De Beers, inaugurated the show and highlighted,” there is no better place to talk about the future of jewellery than India. From being the birthplace of the world’s diamond story to emerging as one of the fastest-growing markets today, India continues to be a pillar of stability and opportunity for the global gems and jewellery industry. Platforms like IIJS Signature play a critical role in strengthening trust, partnerships and confidence across the ecosystem, while reinforcing India’s position at the heart of the global jewellery trade.”

Shri Kirit Bhansali, Chairman, GJEPC, said, “As the year's first major international showcase, IIJS Bharat – Signature embodies the Indian gem and jewellery industry's confidence, resilience, and global readiness. India stands at the nexus of trust, transparency, and opportunity—with IIJS bringing this story to life.”

“In 2026, India steps boldly onto the world stage, assuming the Kimberley Process Chairmanship for the third time—a resounding vote of confidence in our leadership, credibility, and dedication to ethical trade. Poised to achieve the USD 100 billion export milestone by 2047, India's gem and jewellery sector has outgrown dependence on traditional markets. It will drive growth through Free Trade Agreements, robust government support, strategic diversification, manufacturing and technology innovation, and retail expansion. These pillars—anchored in transparency and consumer trust—strengthen our global competitiveness and ensure sustainable, long-term growth”, Chairman added

Highlighting the role of finance and infrastructure in strengthening the sector, Harsha Bangari, Managing Director, EXIM Bank, said, “Gems and jewellery is a traditional yet dynamic sector with a significant contribution to India’s exports and employment. Strengthening infrastructure, improving awareness about financial products, addressing technology and skill gaps, and easing trade bottlenecks are critical for clusters to realise their full export potential.”

Saumen Bhaumik, Managing Director, CaratLane said, “As our industry grows, every stakeholder has benefited, but continued investment in skills and craftsmanship will be key to sustaining this momentum. With the industry expected to grow significantly in the coming years, the availability of skilled hands will become critical. Making artisans a priority is not charity, it is business prudence. If we want to be global leaders, dignity, pride and security for craftsmanship must sit at the centre of our growth story.”

Shaunak Parikh, Vice Chairman, GJEPC said, “IIJS Bharat – Signature 2026 represents India’s commanding position in the global gem and jewellery industry, spanning manufacturing excellence, design innovation, and a rapidly growing domestic market. As the first major international jewellery trade fair of the year, it is where the global industry turns to India for direction and opportunity. The scale of participation, growing international presence, and strong entry of new enterprises reflect the confidence of the trade—making IIJS Bharat – Signature the definitive platform where the global jewellery business year truly begins.”

Inspired by the Art Forms of India under the overarching “Brilliant Bharat” theme, the dedicated Crafts Pavilion at IIJS Bharat – Signature 2026 celebrates the country’s rich jewellery heritage through curated displays and live demonstrations by National Award-winning artisans. The pavilion showcases GI-tagged traditions such as Thewa (gold on glass), Banarasi Meenakari, Cuttack’s centuries-old silver filigree, and distinctive silver crafts from the Hupari cluster, offering visitors a focused glimpse into India’s living craft legacy.

The exhibition also features Select CLUB, a curated luxury segment at JWCC showcasing high-end couture and fine jewellery by 107 select companies, alongside Innov8 Talks & Symposium Knowledge Forums addressing critical themes such as the future of natural diamonds, Free Trade Agreements, lab-grown diamond technology, ease of doing business, and the role of AI in jewellery by 2030.

Aligned with GJEPC’s One Earth sustainability initiative, IIJS Bharat – Signature 2026 continues its commitment to responsible exhibitions, including the elimination of over 600,000 single-use plastic water bottles at the Bombay Exhibition Centre and wider adoption of eco-conscious practices.

With global buyers, industry leaders, and policymakers converging in Mumbai, IIJS Bharat – Signature 2026 is poised to set the tone for the gem and jewellery industry in the year ahead—combining heritage, innovation, sustainability, and global business opportunity on one unified platform.

अगं अगं सूनबाई! काय म्हणताय सासूबाई?’ चित्रपटाचा भव्य ट्रेलर अनावरण सोहळा संपन्न!

 ‘अगं अगं सूनबाई! काय म्हणताय सासूबाई?’ चित्रपटाचा भव्य ट्रेलर अनावरण सोहळा संपन्न!


महिला पत्रकारांच्या हस्ते केले ट्रेलरचे अनावरण!

झीस्टुडिओज आणि सनफ्लॉवर स्टुडिओज निर्मित बहुप्रतिक्षित ‘अगं अगं सूनबाई! काय म्हणताय सासूबाई?’ या चित्रपटाची सध्या सर्वत्र चर्चा  रंगली आहे. चित्रपटाच्या टीझर व शीर्षक गीताने प्रेक्षकांमध्ये उत्सुकता निर्माण केली होती. आता प्रेक्षकांच्या याच उत्सुकतेत भर घालत या चित्रपटाचा भव्य ट्रेलर अनावरण सोहळा नुकताच एका अनोख्या पद्धतीने पार पडला. हा चित्रपट स्त्री सशक्तीकरणावर भाष्य करणारा असल्याने या सोहळ्याला उपस्थित सर्व महिला पत्रकार, चित्रपटाच्या तंत्रज्ञ टीममधील महिला यांच्याद्वारे चित्रपटाच्या ट्रेलरचे अनावरण करण्यात आले. हा क्षण या सोहळ्याचे खास आकर्षण ठरले. तसेच यादिवशी अभिनेत्री प्रार्थना बेहेरेचा वाढदिवस असल्याने संपूर्ण टीमने केक कापून तिचा वाढदिवसही साजरा केला. 

सासू सुनेचं नातं हे अनेक कुटुंबात तुझं माझं जमेना, तुझ्यावाचून करमेना या प्रकारचं असतं.. तर काहींसाठी ‘ असून अडचण, नसून खोळंबा’ अशा स्वरूपाचं असतं.  थोडक्यात, घरोघरी मातीच्या चुली अशी परिस्थिती असते. पण, याहीपलिकडे जाऊन त्यांच्यात एक असाही भावनिक बंध असतो जो या नात्याची वीण कधीच सैल होऊ देत नाही. अशाच काहीशा भावना मांडणारा आणि या नात्याचे नवे पैलू उलगडणारा चित्रपट म्हणजे अगं अगं सुनबाई! काय म्हणताय सासूबाई ? या चित्रपटाचा ट्रेलर लाँच सोहळा नुकताच मोठ्या दिमाखात पार पडला. 

ट्रेलरमध्ये सासू -सूनेच्या नात्याचे केवळ आदर्श रूप नाही, तर त्यातील चांगले-वाईट पैलू, संघर्ष आणि भावनिक क्षणही प्रामाणिकपणे मांडण्यात आले असून, हसवत हसवत विचार करायला लावणारी ही कथा आहे. ही केवळ एक सासू-सूनेची गोष्ट नसून स्त्रियांची गोष्ट आहे. स्त्रियांनी एकमेकींना समजून, एकमेकींची साथ दिल्यावर त्या अधिक सक्षम व मजबूत होतील असा प्रभावी विचार या चित्रपटातून मांडण्यात आला आहे. 

दिग्दर्शक केदार शिंदे म्हणतात, “ ‘अगं अगं सूनबाई! काय म्हणताय सासूबाई?’ हा एक मनोरंजक व कौटुंबिक चित्रपट आहे. चौकोनी कुटुंबाची ही कथा आहे, त्यामुळे हा चित्रपट घरातील प्रत्येकासाठी आहे. यात विनोद आहे, भावना आहेत आणि प्रत्येक घरात दिसणाऱ्या सासू-सुनेच्या नात्याची ओळखीची परिस्थिती आहे. प्रेक्षकांना या नात्यातील गंमतीदार प्रसंग, भावनिक वळणे आणि दोन्ही व्यक्तिरेखांची ताकद अनुभवता येईल.”

या प्रसंगी बोलतांना झी स्टुडिओजचे व्यवसाय प्रमुख बवेश जानवलेकर म्हणाले की, “ 

केदार शिंदे यांनी या चित्रपटाची गोष्ट जेव्हा पहिल्यांदा ऐकवली तेव्हाच आम्ही ठरवलं की हा चित्रपट आपण करुयात. ही गोष्ट केवळ सासू- सून या नात्यांची नाही तर संपूर्ण कुटुंबाची आणि सोबतीनेच स्त्रीयांबद्दलचा एक नवा दृष्टीकोन देणारी आहे. जी सर्वांनाच आवडेल. 

झी स्टुडिओज व सनफ्लॉवर स्टुडियोज निर्मित ‘अगं अगं सूनबाई !काय म्हणताय सासूबाई?’ चित्रपटाचे दिग्दर्शन केदार शिंदे यांनी केले असून सना शिंदे, उमेश कुमार बन्सल यांची निर्मिती आहे. चित्रपटाची कथा आणि संवाद वैशाली नाईक व ओमकार मंगेश दत्त यांची असून पटकथा वैशाली नाईक यांची आहे. तसेच चित्रपटाचे छायाचित्रण व संकलन मयूर हरदास यांनी केले आहे. येत्या १६ जानेवारी पासून प्रेक्षकांच्या भेटीला येत आहे.

लवकरच येतोय ‘मिस यू मिस्टर’ !

 लवकरच येतोय ‘मिस यू मिस्टर’ !

मंत्रा व्हिजनच्या सहकार्याने थर्ड आय क्रिएटिव्ह फिल्म्स प्रस्तुत ‘मिस यू मिस्टर’ हा चित्रपट प्रेक्षकांच्या भेटीला येण्यासाठी सज्ज झाला आहे. नुकत्याच प्रदर्शित झालेल्या आकर्षक पोस्टरने चित्रपटाची उत्सुकता आणखीनच वाढवली आहे.

पोस्टरकडे पाहाताच दोन वेगवेगळ्या देशात राहाणाऱ्या प्रेमिकांची छायाचित्रे नजरेत भरणारी आहेत. सिद्धार्थ चांदेकर आणि मृण्मयी देशपांडे हे फोनच्या हावभावातून संवाद साधताना दिसत असून त्या संवादांमागे काय दडलेलं आहे? लाँग डिस्टन्सचं नातं... कधी मनं जुळवणारं तर कधी मन पोखरणारं ? हा प्रश्न पोस्टर पाहाताच मनात घर करतो.

दिग्दर्शक समीर हेमंत जोशी सांगतात, “‘मिस यू मिस्टर’ ही फक्त दोन शहरांची गोष्ट नाही, ती दोन मनांची आहे. वेळेत आणि राहाण्याच्या ठिकाणांमध्ये अंतर पडलं तर नातं दुरावतं की अधिक स्थिरावतं ? 'मिस यू मिस्टर' याच चढउतारांची गोष्ट आहे.''

 *Mpower आणि FIT India Movement यांच्या वतीने मुंबईत ३० नोव्हेंबरला भव्य सायक्लोथॉन*

राइड टू एम्पावर मुंबई सायक्लोथॉन 2025 हा लोहा फाउंडेशनतर्फे आयोजित करण्यात आला असून, तो फिट इंडिया मूव्हमेंटचा भाग आहे आणि स्पोर्ट्स ऑथॉरिटी ऑफ इंडिया (SAI) यांच्या सहकार्याने घेतला जात आहे. हा उपक्रम रविवार, 30 नोव्हेंबर 2025 रोजी बांद्रा-कुर्ला कॉम्प्लेक्स (BKC) येथील एमएमआरडीए ग्राउंडवर होणार आहे. या उपक्रमाचे उद्दिष्ट सायक्लिंग प्रेमी, फिटनेस समर्थक आणि सर्व क्षेत्रातील नागरिकांना एकत्र आणून शारीरिक आरोग्य आणि मानसिक स्वास्थ्य यामधील नात्यावर प्रकाश टाकणे आहे।

या उपक्रमातून Mpower, ज्याची स्थापना श्रीमती नीरजा बिरला यांनी केली आहे आणि जो आदित्य बिरला एज्युकेशन ट्रस्टचा उपक्रम आहे, मानसिक आरोग्याकडे पाहण्याची दृष्टी बदलणे, सामाजिक अडथळे दूर करणे आणि वेळेवर मानसिक आरोग्य सहाय्य उपलब्ध करून देणे यासाठी कटिबद्ध आहे।

हा उपक्रम फक्त फिटनेस चळवळ नाही तर एक व्यापक जनजागृती संदेश आहे - की मानसिक आरोग्यही शारीरिक आरोग्याइतकंच आवश्यक आहे आणि मदत मागणे हे दुर्बलतेचं नव्हे तर शक्तीचं आणि सजगतेचं प्रतीक आहे.

मानसिक आरोग्याच्या महत्त्वाबद्दल बोलताना, संस्थापक व अध्यक्षा, Mpower, आदित्य बिरला एज्युकेशन ट्रस्ट श्रीमती नीरजा बिरला म्हणाल्या:

“राइड टू एम्पावर मुंबई सायक्लोथॉन हा केवळ एक सायक्लिंग इव्हेंट नाही - तो एक सामाजिक चळवळ आहे, जी मानसिक आणि शारीरिक आरोग्याच्या परस्पर संबंधांची जाणीव करून देते. आमचे उद्दिष्ट मानसिक आरोग्याबद्दलची चर्चा चार भिंतींपलीकडे आणून समाजात खुल्या संवादाला वाव देणे आहे. Mpower मध्ये आम्ही विश्वास बाळगतो की मानसिक स्वास्थ्य हे जीवनाचा अभिन्न भाग आहे. या उपक्रमाद्वारे आम्ही सर्वांना हे स्मरण करून द्यायचे आहे की मदत मागणे हा धैर्याचा निर्णय आहे आणि समाज म्हणून एकत्र येऊन आपण मानसिक आरोग्याला योग्य सन्मान मिळवून देऊ शकतो.”

माननीय रेस डायरेक्टर व मुख्य सल्लागार श्री कृष्ण प्रकाश, IPS (ADG, Force One – Planning & Coordination) म्हणाले:

“सायक्लिंग ही केवळ एक क्रिया नाही - ती शिस्त, तंदुरुस्ती, धैर्य आणि दृढ मनोबलाचे प्रतीक आहे. या सायक्लोथॉनद्वारे आपण फक्त सायकल चालवत नाही, तर मानसिक आरोग्य जागरूकतेकडे पुढचे जबाबदार पाऊल टाकत आहोत. हा उपक्रम मुंबईच्या आत्म्याचा – एकता, जिद्द आणि परिवर्तनाचा – उत्तम प्रतिबिंब आहे.”

या सायक्लोथॉनमध्ये विविध श्रेण्या असतील: 100 किमी, 50 किमी, 25 किमी, 10 किमी आणि विशेष व्हीलचेअर राइड. कार्यक्रम सकाळी 4:00 ते 8:30 या वेळेत पार पडेल।

सहभागींना जर्सी, मेडल, गुडी बॅग, वैयक्तिक फोटो, ई-टायमिंग प्रमाणपत्र, वैद्यकीय आणि हायड्रेशन सपोर्ट उपलब्ध असेल। कार्यक्रमात झुंबा, लाईव्ह म्युझिक, हेल्दी ब्रेकफास्ट आणि मानसिक आरोग्य सेवांना समर्थन देणारा खास “Charity BIB” सुद्धा असेल।

मुंबईतील प्रसिद्ध डबेवाले आणि पोस्टमन यांचा सहभाग हा कार्यक्रमाचा विशेष आणि प्रेरणादायी भाग असेल।
