Meet the 22-year-old writer of Majburi Mein Bandha Ek Rishta, Jigyasa, who found her calling during lockdown

In the journey of life, they say that your true calling reveals itself with time. For some, this realization dawns early on, while others patiently await its arrival. Meet Jigyasa, a remarkable and fortunate 22-year-old who discovered her passion for writing during the challenging days of the lockdown. Hailing from the quaint town of Katihar in Bihar, Jigyasa gracefully balances her Botany studies with her newfound love for writing, particularly for Pocket FM’s audio series, Majburi Mein Bandha Ek Rishta.

Jigyasa’s story took an unexpected turn during the lockdown when she stumbled upon the Pocket FM app. By sheer chance, she uncovered her hidden writing talent and will forever be grateful to Pocket FM for opening the doors to her dreams. As she delved deeper into the world of writing, Jigyasa quickly realized her innate potential and is now an inspiration to many young girls her age. In such a short span, she’s received recognition for her work and is inundated with messages from fans of the series.

Her dedication bore fruit when she received her first payment from Pocket FM, which she lovingly shared with her family. Jigyasa couldn’t imagine that at such a young age she could provide for herself and her family, too. In a heartwarming gesture of pride, the budding writer gifted her father a mobile phone.

In gratitude for the opportunity that Pocket FM presented her, Jigyasa expressed, “During the depths of the lockdown, I discovered a glimmer of hope and a path to my dreams. Pocket FM became my sanctuary, where my words found wings. ‘Majburi Mein Bandha Ek Rishta’ is a heartfelt tale of emotions and resilience, narrated through the canvas of audio. At 22, I stand proudly, grateful for the blessings and the opportunity received. The Lockdown not only gifted me a platform but also the courage to embrace my true passion. Today, I am not just a writer; I am independent, chasing my aspirations with unwavering determination. Pocket FM changed my life, as I have realised that writing is my true ambition. Thankfully, my parents are supportive and encourage me to hone my skills and pursue writing.”

Family drama is Jigyasa’s favorite genre, and she poured her heart and soul into creating the captivating audio series, ‘Majburi Mein Bandha Ek Rishta.’ The story of the audio series follows the complex relationships of Rudra and Anya. Bound together by a forced marriage, Rudra’s reluctance to commit creates a shaky foundation, intensified by Anya’s painful past. Trust, respect, commitment, and shared values become crucial for their journey. As Anya grapples with her well-being, she faces a pivotal choice: stay with someone lacking commitment and respect or forge her path. Navigating this intricate web requires guidance. Will love conquer all, or is this relationship doomed? To find out, tune in to Majburi Mein Bandha Ek Rishta, only on Pocket FM.

PingCAP APAC launches TiDB Serverless, a fully-managed, autonomous database for developers

Singapore, 1st August 2023 PingCAP APAC today announced the general availability (GA) of TiDB Serverless, its newest offering of TiDB, the company’s open-source, distributed SQL database. As a fully-managed, autonomous database-as-a-service (DBaaS), TiDB Serverless delivers reliable scalability for developers who want to free themselves from manual database tasks, such as sharding. The GA release of TiDB Serverless offers key advancements to PingCAP’s leading database architecture and provides developers with time-saving features, including

• Auto Elasticity – TiDB Serverless automatically scales hundreds of nodes up and down to meet critical workloads in real time. It enables separate scaling for storage and compute, allowing autonomous scalability of nodes without manual sharding—so development teams can focus on what’s next. TiDBServeless maintains the ACID properties of data transactions.
• Fully-Managed Operations – With built-in auto failover and self-healing to ensure continuous operations, multiple availability zones (AZs) are used to duplicate data, increasing overall resilience and prevention of failures. TiDB Serverless performs daily data backups, increasing safety measures and facilitating data recovery if necessary. TiDB Serverless also ensures auto-failover, minimizing downtime and guaranteeing business continuity.
• Usage-Based Pricing – Lower overall infrastructure costs by only paying for the data processing and storage you use. TiDB Serverless eliminates the need for manual intervention by abstracting the underlying infrastructure and automatically adjusts to changing workloads. TiDB Serverless guarantees that developers only pay for the resources they actually need.
• AI-Assisted Enhancements – New features such as Chat2Query, powered by OpenAI’s ChatGPT3, allow developers to generate SQL queries on the fly, increasing overall developer productivity. The service provides real-time insights into dynamic datasets, allowing developers to analyze and explore more data at a faster rate. The service ensures developers make smarter business decisions by providing timely and relevant information.

“Enter a new era of seamless scalability with our revolutionary TiDB Serverless,” stated Max Liu, CEO of PingCAP. “This innovative product represents a significant milestone for PingCAP, offering developers exceptional flexibility and scalability. TiDB Serverless will drive growth and empower organizations to achieve significant improvements in database management. We are excited for developers to explore its endless opportunities while benefiting from unmatched efficiency.”
