theysay Export order outlook is good, and all developed markets and brands are showing good projections. Retail sales in the US are witnessing a robust trend along with lower levels of inventory with retailers leading to good demand for products like apparels and home textiles. The UK also opened its retail sector with the easing of he lockdown, post mass vaccination. Though the spike in Covid cases is a concern, we have been telling Western clients that there is no major lockdown and operations of textile units are smooth as most units are spread out in rural areas. Prabhu Dhamodharan, Convenor, Indian Texpreneurs Federation, quoted in BusinessLine

Apologetic Apu

After voicing Apu for 30 years in The Simpsons, American actor Hank Azaria apologised for his racially insensitive depiction. Azaria stepped down last year from the long-running American sitcom which started in 1989. In a podcast, Azaria admitted the pernicious impact the portrayal had: Apu, he said, had “become a slur” in American communities. He added that he would like to go to each Indian and apologise to them. In June 2020, following the George Floyd protests in the US, The Simpsons’ creators announced they will no longer have non-white characters voiced by white actors. Source: The Swaddle
