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.
