Madikeri recorded a 25% drop in waste generated during this year’s Dasara, with municipal officials attributing the reduction partly to the city’s ban on the sale and use of plastic bottles below two litres.
The cleanup operation was completed in one and a half days, compared with five days last year, according to Madikeri city municipal commissioner Ramesh.

Julian Lennon with ‘Love the Earth’ book
Created and written by British filmmaker Jean-Paul Mertinez and produced by Meena Khera, the series adapts Julian Lennon’s illustrated children’s books into a hybrid animation.
________________________________________________
Julian Lennon’s animated series Love The Earth, inspired by his bestselling book trilogy, secures a UK-India production partnership. The project, blending nature, cultural diversity, and mindfulness, features Lennon as executive producer, narrator, and music creator. Announced at EDS 2026, it aims to inspire families globally while celebrating creativity and environmental advocacy.
An India-UK financing partnership has been secured for Love The Earth with Julian Lennon & Friends, an upcoming animated series based on Julian Lennon and Bart Davis’s New York Times bestselling Touch the Earth book trilogy.
Announced at the inaugural Experience Design Summit (EDS) 2026 in Jaipur on October 23, the partnership will see E-Factor Experiences Ltd provide production finance for the Compassionate Studios-led series. Samit Garg, Co-Founder and Managing Director of E-Factor Experiences Ltd, joins the project as an executive producer.
Created and written by British filmmaker Jean-Paul Mertinez and produced by Meena Khera, the series adapts Julian Lennon’s illustrated books into a hybrid animation format. Julian, son of legendary musician John Lennon, serves as executive producer, narrator, co-writer and creator of original music for the series. The adaptation will feature new characters and adventures centred on nature, discovery, cultural diversity and mindfulness. The project draws on Lennon’s environmental advocacy through his White Feather Foundation.
Indigenous Lakota actor Mo Brings Plenty, known for his roles in Yellowstone and Marshals, lends his voice to an animated character in the series.
“We’re delighted to join Julian, Jean-Paul, Meena and the wider team in bringing Love The Earth to life through this production partnership,” said Garg. “Our intention is to help build more than a series. We want to create a much-loved global entertainment brand that inspires families, honours the natural world, celebrates creativity and brings cultures together.”
The partnership was unveiled alongside an India-focused debut experience at EDS. The opening-night programme featured a 30-minute segment called Love The Earth Experience, with exclusive previews introducing the characters Lilly-Lou and the Strawberry Tiger from Assam. Contemporary folk-fusion duo Maati Baani performed at the event, while folk musician and producer Poonacha, from Karnataka’s Kodagu (Coorg) community, opened proceedings with a traditional song honouring the River Kaveri.
A special India-focused episode is in development for the series.
“Love The Earth is about creating a new storytelling world for children and families to immerse themselves in, filled with delightful, funny and engaging characters, and a healthy dose of joy, original music, imagination, purpose and adventure,” said Mertinez. “We’re thrilled to be bringing together Indigenous storytellers and creative voices from around the world to create something really special, with many wonderful stories to come in the first season.”
Khera expressed excitement for bringing the narrative to the animation format. “We want to spread the message: love yourself, love each other and love the Earth. By combining music, storytelling and beautiful animation with simple, effective mindfulness techniques, we hope to help children and families connect with themselves, one another and our beautiful planet in a joyous, hopeful way.”
The project was first unveiled internationally at SXSW London. The India announcement marks the next phase of development for the show’s first season.
Love The Earth with Julian Lennon & Friends is a Compassionate Studios production in association with E-Factor Experiences Ltd. Executive producers are Julian Lennon, Bart Davis, Samit Garg, Lyndon Haviland, Rebecca Warfield, and Forest Trends. Screen rights were brokered by Erica Spellman Silverman for Robert Gottlieb on behalf of Trident Media Group.

Bengaluru:
Journalist and author P.T. Bopanna’s new book, Who are the Kodavas (Coorgs)?, looks at the origins of the Kodava community of Kodagu, drawing on the first genetic study of the community.
The study was led by Coorg-born Professor Buttiyanda Kuttapa Thelma, popularly known as B.K. Thelma, a prominent Indian geneticist and genomics researcher.
Her team, comprising scientists from the University of Delhi South Campus and the Centre for Cellular and Molecular Biology (CCMB), Hyderabad, analysed genomic samples from Kodavas to study their genetic links with other populations. The findings form a separate chapter in the book.
The study found that the Kodavas have a more complex genetic profile than their shared cultural identity might suggest. It identified three distinct subgroups, with differences in genetic isolation, drift and admixture. The findings also offer insights into the genetic history of populations in South Asia.
A separate chapter by Sociologist Prof. Neravanda Veena Poonacha examines the community’s socio-cultural heritage. She argues that Kodava identity cannot be explained by genetics alone or through colonial-era racial theories. It has also been shaped by trade, wars, migration and cultural exchanges over the years. She also examines how the Kodavas have retained their distinct identity while sharing cultural links with other South Indian communities.
This is Bopanna’s 12th book. Deepika Cariappa, Bengaluru Bureau Chief of The Hindu, has written the foreword.
Published by Prism Books, Bengaluru, the paperback edition is available online.

Mysuru’s motorcycle racer Tasmai Cariappa secured his second victory of the 2026 season in the Superbike 1000cc SB2 category at NEXZTER BRIC Superbike Championship – Round 3 held at Chang International Circuit in Buriram, Thailand, from Oct 16 to 18.
The victory was particularly special for Tasmai as it marked his first-ever wet race since beginning his motorcycle racing career in 2021. Competing on the powerful Yamaha YZF-R1 1000cc superbike, he demonstrated exceptional determination, adaptability and control in challenging wet weather conditions to secure the top step of the podium.
Racing in the rain presented an entirely new challenge, demanding precision, confidence and a careful balance between speed and control. Winning under these circumstances made the achievement even more rewarding, marking another significant milestone in his international racing journey.
Tasmai credited his data engineer and the entire AVRP team for their crucial contribution to the victory. “I am extremely happy to secure this victory, especially because it was my first-ever wet race in my entire racing career. Winning it on a 1000cc Yamaha R1 makes it even more special. A huge thanks to my entire team for understanding my riding style and working tirelessly to set up the motorcycle exactly the way I needed it. Their support and efforts made a tremendous difference and this victory belongs to the entire team,” said Tasmai.
Representing India with the Nexzter Liqui Moly Yamaha Moritech Bridgestone AVRP team, Tasmai continues to establish himself on the international racing stage. Following his successful transition to the highly competitive 1000cc Superbike category in 2026, this latest win further strengthens his campaign as he prepares for the season finale.
With two victories secured this season, Tasmai now turns his attention to Round 4, scheduled for Nov. `19 to 22, 2026, where he aims to continue his momentum and fight for the championship title in his debut yearin 1000cc category.

Some Australian roasters are turning to India as an origin as coffee supply from other regions tightens. Image: Ahaana Coffee
As Australian roasters explore alternative origins, Ahaana Coffee is helping showcase India’s diverse coffee offering – from premium Robustas to distinctive Monsooned Malabar Arabic.
Indian coffee is starting to carve out a bigger niche in Australia’s roasting scene.
Smaller-than-expected harvest results out of established origins such as Brazil and Vietnam have left roasters with the need to fill their bags with quality coffees grown elsewhere, and the South Asian nation known for high-quality Robusta is meeting the call.
Melbourne-based green bean importer Ahaana Coffee has seen this boost firsthand, with Founder Rajesh Nair reporting strong interest in Robusta sourced from family-owned plantations in Karnataka.
“Over the past few years, I’ve definitely seen more interest in Indian coffee, especially Robusta,” says Rajesh.
“People are increasingly inclined towards Indian Robusta because the quality is comparatively better than many other origins.”
According to the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), India was responsible for producing 6.43 million 60-kilogram bags of coffee in 2025-26, which is about four per cent of the world’s total coffee supply.
About 70 per cent of the coffee grown in India is Robusta. Only six nations produce more coffee than the South Asian nation, which also has a strong history in growing Arabica.
Predominantly grown in the southern states of Karnataka, Kerala, and Tamil Nadu, coffee cultivation in India traditionally involved cherries grown in the shade alongside other spice crops.
Rajesh and Ahaana work with family-owned estates around Coorg in Karnataka. These plantations have produced coffee for more than 40 years, and he says ongoing replanting programs are helping rejuvenate the estates while ensuring they remain productive long into the future.
“We need to replant some saplings every year. We regularly replace plants that have declined or died over time across all our estates,” he says.
“This year alone we’re replanting about 3000 trees, but that changes from year to year. It depends on the condition of the plants and how many need to be replaced.”
The estates maintain a clear separation between Arabica and Robusta production, with replanting programs tailored to each variety.
”This year it has mostly been Cauvery (Catimor-type) plantations that have been refreshed, but across the estates we have replanted a number of different varietals,” says Rajesh.
The dwarf Cauvery variety is planted at high density, enabling estates to maximise production from available land.
According to Rajesh, the varietal is valued for its clean and bright cup profile, typically featuring citrus, red berry, and herbal characteristics.
Alongside Cauvery, the estates cultivate traditional Indian Arabica varieties including Selection 6 and Selection 795. Selection 6 is prized for its strong tolerance to coffee leaf rust and balanced cup profile, while Selection 795 remains one of India’s most established varieties, recognised for its high yields and flavour notes of dark chocolate, toasted nuts, maple syrup, and spice.
While those Catimor saplings will take time to mature, Rajesh says Ahaana is working on importing India’s most distinctively processed – Monsooned Malabar – coffee into Australia to round out a productive 2026.
This style of coffee is closely linked to India’s maritime history, with the unique profile developed after coffee was exposed to salty sea air during shipping to Europe in the 18th and 19th century.
This exposure resulted in a coffee with a transformed appearance, density, and cup profile. The beans swell and lose acidity, resulting in a coffee known for heavy body and an earthy flavour profile.
Nowadays, rather than exposing the coffee to humid monsoon air on the open ocean, the effect is achieved by exposing the coffee to the monsoon winds in coastal warehouses.
“It’s a very specific style that is unique to India,” says Rajesh. “It’s a seasonal process that results in a very low-acidity coffee.
“Processing usually starts around August or September, with the coffee normally available from October to March. I’m expecting to secure between 26 and 30 tonnes in total this year.”
Rajesh says there is rising demand for both Indian Arabica and Robusta among Australian roasters, with Robusta demand continuing to level up.
While traditional preferences once positioned Robusta as an inferior coffee to Arabica, limited mostly to commercial blends, the species has seen an improvement in its perception in recent years.
India has long been heralded as a world leader in quality Robusta, and Rajesh says roasters continue to recognise its potential as a high-quality blending coffee and a standalone single origin.
The estates Ahaana works with grow both traditional Old Robusta and Selection 274, a high-yielding cultivar widely associated with India’s Kaapi Royale coffees.
Rajesh says these varieties are sought after for their heavy body and syrupy texture, with cup profiles ranging from earthy and bold through to caramel, toasted nut, and spice notes.
Demand for Arabica is more nuanced, according to Rajesh. Premium-grade lots continue to attract interest, but these coffees are often positioned as a distinctive point of difference coffee, rather than being used in blends.
Like many importers, Ahaana has spent the past year or so navigating challenging macroeconomic conditions. Rising coffee prices, freight disruptions, and ongoing shipping delays continue to strain the supply chain.
“Shipping lines can’t operate at their usual efficiencies because of oil price surges and disruptions to key shipping points. Containers are getting stuck, and that’s affecting everyone who relies on shipping,” he says.
The coffee is ready at origin, but there are no containers. It’s a domino effect from what’s happening in the Middle East.”

Despite those ongoing logistics hurdles that are influencing the entire industry, Rajesh says the business remains focused on growth.
Launching in 2025, Ahaana Coffee has been steadily growing its capabilities out of Melbourne and is building its business in Sydney and New Zealand.
Now with Sydney-based representative Srini supporting customers in New South Wales, and New Zealand representative Dan helping develop opportunities across the Tasman, the business is beginning to establish the foundations of a bigger presence.
Rajesh says building relationships takes time, but early conversations and sample feedback has been encouraging in both markets.
“Until now, we’ve been more focused on Melbourne, but we’re starting to build into these new areas,” he says.
“Diversifying into multiple regions is very important for us. As a growing business, we want to expand into new territories.”

Dr. Joseph John, a former nuclear physicist who helped introduce and redefine Indian-grown coffee in the United States, died Sept. 15. He was 88.
Known throughout the industry simply as “Dr. John,” John and his wife, Urmila, established the San Francisco Bay Area-based Josuma Coffee Company in 1992, working to introduce high-quality Indian coffees to a U.S. specialty coffee market that largely overlooked the origin.
John later developed the company’s signature Malabar Gold Espresso blend, made exclusively with Indian coffees, while becoming a fixture at industry trade shows through his lectures on the science of espresso.
Born in 1938 in Madurai, in India’s southern state of Tamil Nadu, John earned bachelor’s and master’s degrees in physics before joining India’s atomic energy program in 1958, at age 20.
He moved to the United States in 1964 and earned a doctorate in nuclear physics from Florida State University in 1968. He met Urmila at Florida State, and the couple married in 1967 and became parents in 1972.
John subsequently worked for Gulf General Atomic, a predecessor of today’s General Atomics, in San Diego before moving into business and consulting work in the San Francisco Bay Area.
John’s entry into specialty coffee came unexpectedly after an acquaintance connected to an Indian coffee estate sought help finding American buyers. In a 2012 interview with Fresh Cup magazine, John recalled that he and Urmila initially had no plans to enter the coffee business.
“It was not by design. It was really just sheer accident,” he said.
The couple officially established Josuma Coffee Company in 1992, focusing on direct relationships with Indian estates, specializing in coffees that could meet the quality requirements of specialty roasters. John also worked with growers and the Coffee Board of India to improve quality and expand the country’s presence in the U.S. market.
In a 2018 account of Indian coffee’s development, Barrington Coffee Roasting Company co-founder Barth Anderson credited John with introducing him to Indian specialty coffee in 1996, describing his influence on both American roasters and coffee producers in India.
In 1996, John developed Malabar Gold Espresso, initially as a demonstration of the potential of Indian beans in premium espresso blends. The product grew into Josuma’s flagship roasted coffee offering.
John also became an outspoken advocate for the use of high-quality robusta in espresso blends, challenging prevailing attitudes in the American specialty coffee industry.
Beginning in the early 2000s, he wrote extensively about espresso extraction and blending while delivering lectures at Coffee Fest and other industry events. His classes included “Espresso and Coffee: More Different Than You Think.”
His published work included a two-part 2008 article on espresso blending in Roast magazine and the 2023 book Creating a Perfect Espresso, which brought together much of his teaching and writing.
John retired in 2017, although his involvement in coffee education continued. In 2018, Josuma became an early supporter of the UC Davis Coffee Center, where a conference room now bears the company’s name.
Josuma remains family-owned and operated under the management of John’s son, Melind, and daughter-in-law, Steph.
John is survived by his wife, Urmila, Melind and Steph.

Kalanithi Maran built one of India’s biggest media empires. Yet the woman standing beside him has shaped much of its success from the start. Kavery Kalanithi (also known as Kaveri Maran) is far more than the wife of the Sun Group chairman. She is Executive Director of Sun TV Network, the force behind its content strategy, and one of the highest-paid executives in Indian corporate history.
Here’s a clear, up-to-date look at her life, work, and family.
Kavery hails from Kodagu (Coorg) in Karnataka. She married Kalanithi Maran in 1991. At the time, Kalanithi was still shaping his vision after returning from an MBA at the University of Scranton in the United States. He had seen the explosion of television channels there and wanted to bring something similar to South India.
Kavery joined the journey almost immediately. When Sun TV launched in 1993, she stepped into a hands-on role. What began as a single Tamil channel grew under the couple’s combined leadership into a network of more than 30 channels across Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Malayalam, Bengali, and Marathi. In 2024 the group even entered the Hindi market with Sun Neo.
Their partnership has always been professional as well as personal. Both ranked among India’s highest-paid executives, each drawing packages in the tens of crores in earlier years. Kavery’s remuneration has consistently been reported around ₹87 crore in recent financial years.
Kavery oversees content across the network. She watches competing channels closely and believes feedback is essential—something her husband instilled early. Under her watch the group expanded beyond South India and strengthened its overseas presence among the Tamil diaspora.
Key contributions include:
She rarely seeks the spotlight. Colleagues and industry watchers describe her as focused, detail-oriented, and quietly decisive. While Kalanithi handles the broader business vision, Kavery has long owned the creative and content side.
The couple has one daughter, Kavya (also spelled Kaviya) Kalanithi Maran, born in the early 1990s. Kavya is Executive Director at Sun TV Network and heads the group’s cricket interests—Sunrisers Hyderabad in the IPL, Sunrisers Eastern Cape in South Africa’s SA20, and Sunrisers Leeds in England’s The Hundred.
As of October 2026, Kavya is preparing to marry music composer Anirudh Ravichander. The wedding reception is scheduled for 21 November 2026 in Chennai. Kalanithi and Kavery have already begun inviting political leaders, including meetings with Telangana Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy and Tamil Nadu Chief Minister.
The family maintains a relatively private profile despite their public business roles and political connections (Kalanithi is the grand-nephew of the late M. Karunanidhi and son of former Union Minister Murasoli Maran).
| Detail | Information |
|---|---|
| Full Name | Kavery Kalanithi Maran (Kaveri Maran) |
| Hometown | Kodagu (Coorg), Karnataka |
| Marriage | 1991 to Kalanithi Maran |
| Profession | Executive Director, Sun TV Network |
| Key Responsibility | Content strategy across 30+ channels |
| Daughter | Kavya Kalanithi Maran (SRH CEO) |
| Notable Salary (reports) | Around ₹87 crore in recent years |
| Current Focus (2026) | Content, digital growth, family milestones |
Kavery represents a quieter style of leadership. She entered the business at its foundation and stayed through every expansion, from a single channel to a multi-language powerhouse that reaches over 140 million households. Her consistent presence has given Sun TV stability and a strong content identity.
In an industry often dominated by louder personalities, her approach—watch the product closely, expand carefully, and let results speak—has proven effective for more than three decades.
Conclusion
Kavery Kalanithi is not just Kalanithi Maran’s wife. She is a co-architect of one of India’s most successful regional media groups. From the early days of Sun TV in 1993 to the network’s current scale and the family’s next chapter with their daughter’s wedding in November 2026, she has remained a steady, influential presence. Her story shows how behind-the-scenes leadership can shape an entire industry.
