Jos Alukkas Presents ‘Second Sunrises’
Hosted by Suhasini Maniratnam, the six-episode podcast by Jos Alukkas celebrates women embracing remarriage, resilience, and the courage to begin again.
Jos Alukkas, a trusted name in quality, innovation, and trendy jewellery in India, has announced the launch of Second Sunrises, a six-episode story-telling podcast hosted by actor and film maker Suhasini Maniratnam. The series brings together women who have chosen remarriage, discovered companionship, or stepped into a renewed chapter of life, sharing journeys of courage, self-belief, and the freedom to begin again.

Across India, conversations around remarriage, especially for women, often remain private. Second Sunrises opens a thoughtful public dialogue through intimate, reflective conversations that present new beginnings with dignity and confidence, recognising that life’s milestones continue to evolve across generations.

Speaking on the series, Suhasini Maniratnam said, “Many women rebuild their lives with remarkable strength, yet their stories are rarely spoken about openly. Second Sunrises creates a space where these journeys can be shared with honesty and warmth. Each conversation reflects the courage it takes to choose happiness again, and I am honoured to be part of bringing these voices forward.”
The series opens with actor and singer Mamta Mohandas and features conversations with Film & media personality Pooja Bedi, Author Sudha Menon, Actor and Television Host Ramya Subramanian, International Badminton Champion Jwala Gutta, celebrated screen performers Pavitra Lokesh, and Vijaykrishna Naresh, each offering deeply personal reflections on change, resilience, and rediscovery.
With Second Sunrises, Jos Alukkas extends its engagement with stories that mirror the emotional realities of contemporary society, recognising that celebrations today are defined as much by renewal and personal choice as by tradition itself.

Mahesh Notandass Jewellers & Vandals Join Sotheby’s and Somya Khurana For An Evening Of Mindful Living and Exceptional Diamonds In The Swiss Alps
An Exclusive Alpine Gathering Brings Together Mindful Living, Conscious Reflection and Extraordinary Jewellery Artistry, Featuring A Spectacular Emerald and Diamond Glove and A Statement Scarf Adorned With Hundreds Of Natural Emeralds and Diamonds
Sotheby’s Switzerland, wellness curator Somya Khurana, Mahesh Notandass Jewellers and Vandals come together this season for a one-of-a-kind evening that pairs conscious living with uncompromising craftsmanship. This is an evening of mindful reflection, followed by an exclusive presentation of Mahesh Notandass & Vandals’ most extraordinary jewellery, including a glove made of emeralds and diamonds.
Hosted against the calming backdrop of the Col de la Croix mountain pass, the gathering will unfold at the storied Chalet Roy Alps Domaine de Rochegrosse, in the alpine resort town of Villars-sur-Ollon, a setting chosen deliberately for its stillness, its altitude, and its distance from the noise of the everyday. The evening begins with a curated wellbeing experience helmed by Somya Khurana, centred on mindfulness and conscious reflection, an invitation for guests to arrive fully present before the evening centrepiece is revealed.


For over a century, Mahesh Notandass Diamond Jewellers has been synonymous with rare stones, master craftsmanship and design that transcends trend; jewellery built not merely to be worn, but to be inherited. This exclusive presentation will showcase an edit of Mahesh Notandas and Vandals’ finest creations, offering guests a rare, private encounter with pieces that represent the pinnacle of the house’s artistry: exceptional precious stones set with the precision that has defined the Notandass name across generations.


Among the highlights of the evening are two exceptional jewellery artworks, a sculptural emerald and diamond glove featuring over 600 emeralds, and an intricately crafted scarf adorned with more than 300 natural emeralds and over 1,300 diamonds. Conceived as works of wearable art, both pieces reflect the house’s pursuit of scale, craftsmanship and extraordinary use of precious stones, blurring the line between jewellery and collectible art.
Hosted in partnership with Sotheby’s Switzerland, the evening reflects a shared philosophy across all three collaborators that true luxury is not loud. It is considered and felt before it is seen. Bringing together mindful living and fine craftsmanship in one setting, the evening positions House of Notandass at the intersection of substance and sophistication, in a location as rarefied as the jewels themselves.
