    Amirzada Nawab Khan’s story to be telecast on Zee Yuva

    MUMBAI: Maharashtra Police, one of the potent police forces in India, has come a long way from the decade of 80s when it lacked training & high-end precision weapons which is the norm of late. That decade was marked with the rise in crime and police’s main weapon were their networking skills with informers.

    One of the most dreaded criminal who rose to infamy in this period was Amirzada Navab Khan who had a flourishing narcotics business. This period marked the terror of Amirzada’s ‘Pathan’ gang. The gang was famous for the fear that it commanded over the common masses. Numerous cases were registered against them but only a handful of eyewitnesses were ready to testify.

    One brave police officer Isaque Bagwan from the crime branch team rose to fame when the case of Mushirbhai who was the producer of Dilip Kumar’s movie ‘Shakti’ was kidnapped. The subsequent ransom demand & release from the clutches of the Pathan gang raised many questions on the capability & integrity of Maharashtra Police. This case was handed over to Bagwan. Through his strong network of informants, he managed to nab Amirzada & his partners who were part of the crime.

    This case was not an easy task for Bagwan as he had to ensure that the trial of Amirzada comes to its logical conclusion. Amirzada on being brought for trial was shot by a shooter in the courtroom. Bagwan’s sharp presence of mind resulted in apprehending the shooter by pulling the trigger & shooting him in the leg, one of the first in–court shooting incidents. This saved the pride of many including the lady justice who was presiding on the case.

    This spine-chilling case will unfold on Zee Yuva’s new show Shaurya – Gatha Abhimanachi this Friday & Saturday at 9pm. This story truly embodies the spirit of Maharashtra Police. Similar stories centered around the Braveheart’s of Maharashtra Police can be seen on Zee Yuva’s new show Shaurya – Gatha Abhimanachi.

  • Mayfield pumps Rs 21 crore in Mumbai based food technology startup Box8

    Mayfield pumps Rs 21 crore in Mumbai based food technology startup Box8

    MUMBAI: On-demand food delivery service Box8 has raised approximately Rs 21 crore in Series A funding from US-based venture capital fund Mayfield. Founded by IIT graduates Amit Raj and Anshul Gupta in 2012, Box8 is one of the front-runners in India’s Rs 50,000-crore food tech market.

     

    One of its best-selling products, ‘all in one’ meal box was developed keeping in mind the hectic and fast paced life of the Indian consumer. The company’s strength lies in its strong development team, which comprises experienced chefs from ITC and Marriott Hotels. 

     

    “We keep only one thing in mind when we make our food; that we would only serve food that we enjoy eating. Food is a tricky business. It has many moving parts and is very personal to customers,” says Raj.

     

    Having 22 delivery units across Mumbai, with over 2,000 transactions per day, Box8 has grown 10x in the last 15 months. Keeping a focus on taste, technology and innovation has resonated well with its customers, as 80 per cent of its daily transactions come from repeat customers. Therefore, the funding comes at a welcome time when they not only need to keep their quality consistent but more man power on board.

     

    “We have over 30 IITians in our team and we would like to hire more such talented individuals from different backgrounds. Execution is the key to the success of this business and we want to build a team, which focuses on getting the job done,” added Gupta.

     

    Box8 is also backed by multiple angel investors, including Mu Sigma founder Dheeraj Rajaram, Avendus Capital co-founder and managing director Kaushal Aggarwal and Indian Angel Network.
