Actor and poetess Kavitta Verma, who was last seen in Bejoy Nambiar’s Kaala on Disney Hotstar, believes that while social media remains a powerful tool, it has also become a space that’s increasingly repetitive and predictable. In a candid reflection on the current digital culture, she shared her views on audience fatigue, algorithm-driven trends, and the need for authentic connection.

“Everything, when explored a lot, becomes predictable,” says Kavitta. “Audiences see what they want to. Everyone has their own zones of interest. Social media by and large is a free-of-cost play zone, so people’s engagement is naturally high.”

However, despite the constant buzz, Kavitta feels the real originality still lies in human connection.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
