What it looks like when it works.
Three stories, each a different kind of proof. A child on a national stage, a movement inside government schools, and a school that has run Knowledge Capsules for years.
From a free Sunday quiz to KBC Junior.
A child on Amitabh Bachchan's hot seat.
Purav played the free Sunday Mega Quiz week after week, the same live quiz any child in India can join. On the episode aired on 6 October 2025, he sat on the Kaun Banega Crorepati Junior hot seat and won five lakh rupees.
Nothing about the Sunday quiz is exclusive. It is free, it is open, and it rewards children who pay attention to the world. Purav is what that habit can grow into.
A free programme in 142 government schools.
Story-led learning, free, at scale.
Every week a trained educator walks into a government classroom and turns the news of the world into a forty minute story children carry home. The school pays nothing. A CSR partner does, at two rupees per child per week.
It runs today in 78 West Bengal government schools and 64 Kendriya Vidyalayas, 142 in all, under Department of Education permission, with 577 classes logged so far. Every single class is photographed, dated and published to a public gallery, so a funder can see exactly where the money went.
Where it all began.
A fifteen minute ask that started everything.
On 21 September 2023, Aditya Poddar walked into The Heritage School and asked for fifteen minutes. That ask became Knowledge Capsules. Since then Aditya has stood in front of 500 teachers at the school, and the weekly class has become part of how children there follow the world.
Private and institutional schools run Knowledge Capsules as a paid weekly class, costed at two rupees per child per week. From that first fifteen minutes, the programme has grown to nearly 150 schools across India.
