India Ascends Yearender 2025 | Mahakumbh To Shah Rukh Khan: India Shines On Global Stage
In this special year-ender episode of India Ascends, 2025 was a year of India's cultural awakening. From the world's largest tent city at the Mahakumbh to the flag hoisting at the grand Ram Temple in Ayodhya, India embraced its civilisational roots and spiritual identity. The year also saw India's culture shine globally — Indian cinema at the Oscars, Shah Rukh Khan's Met Gala debut, Indian literature winning the International Booker Prize, and Deepawali earning UNESCO recognition as a living cultural tradition.
