Dubai's success story is remarkable. The emphasis on long-term vision and institutional development is something we in India can learn from, especially in our media and infrastructure projects. It's not just about flashy buildings, but sustainable, human-centred growth.

While Dubai's model is impressive, I hope we also celebrate and invest in our own Indian models of cultural connection. We have a rich diversity that is a natural content goldmine. Let's not just look outward, but also strengthen our own storytelling from within.

The point about being an aviation hub connecting 170+ destinations is key. So many Indians, including myself, have transited through Dubai. It genuinely feels like a crossroads of the world. Their focus on connectivity is a masterclass in soft power.

"Originality over imitation" – a much-needed message in today's content landscape. Every reel doesn't need to be a copy of a trend. Real, unique stories from our communities are what will last. Dubai figured this out on a city-scale.

Interesting read. The humanitarian angle is often overlooked. It's not just about business and tourism; building bridges between cultures is a form of diplomacy. Other global cities should take note.
