Visual Culture: China’s 16th Photography Festival opened in Sanmenxia with a month of exhibitions, workshops and artist exchanges. Screen Stories: Asian microdramas are spreading beyond China, where short, cliffhanger-packed series have become a major entertainment business. Changing Families: China’s paid “temporary children” offer older people help and companionship, reflecting how migration and an ageing population are reshaping family care. Living Heritage: India’s former royals are finding modern roles as cultural custodians and public figures, using palace collections and traditions to sustain local identity. Faith & Public Life: In Mumbai, the removal of actor Dia Mirza’s anti-firecracker Diwali message sparked a debate over who gets to shape celebrations in the name of tradition. Art & Animation: A 12th-century Nepal statue sold for a Himalayan art-record ₹166 crore, while Japan’s anime industry reported record 2025 sales of $28.2 billion.
