Top 5 visionaries of India in 2025

1- Mykos: A Mediterranean oasis in the heart of Bengaluru

Tucked away on Bannerghatta Road, Mykos Craft Kitchen & Bar offers a refreshing Mediterranean-inspired escape in the midst of Bengaluru’s bustling food scene. Drawing from the whitewashed charm of Mykonos, the restaurant pairs tranquil interiors with earthy tones and ambient lighting, creating an atmosphere more reminiscent of a Greek island than an Indian metro.

The menu is expansive and eclectic—Mediterranean at its core, but stretching into Continental, Italian, Chinese, North Indian, and South American cuisines. Signature dishes like the Mushroom Fatar and Avocado Nigiri Sushi stand out, while a curated bar menu offers house-made cocktails and elegant wine and whiskey pairings.

Mykos is more than just a place to dine—it’s a lively social hub. With regular live music, DJs, and event hosting for up to 250 guests, it’s become a favourite spot for birthdays, office parties, and casual hangouts. Stylish yet approachable, upscale but inviting, Mykos balances international flair with local warmth.

Whether for an elegant dinner, a casual catch-up, or a special celebration, Mykos offers a picture-perfect experience in the heart of South Bengaluru.

2- Dr. Bikrant Tiwary: A leading visionary transforming India through nature-based solutions

On the occasion of Earth Day 2025, Dr. Bikrant Tiwary, one of India’s most inspiring social visionaries and founder of www.aadivasi.org, continues to lead a silent revolution in ecological restoration and sustainable livelihoods across the country. With over 20 million trees planted in states like Jharkhand, West Bengal, Uttarakhand, Madhya Pradesh, and Karnataka, his work stands as a testament to people-powered environmental change.

Beyond afforestation, Dr. Tiwary has created more than 2,000 water bodies, conserving over 50 lakh liters of rainwater annually, especially in water-scarce and hilly regions. His approach blends environmental conservation with economic empowerment by training thousands of tribal and rural women in eco-friendly handicrafts, helping them build sustainable incomes through aadivasi.org’s ESG-rated products.

He believes that youth must take charge of the future by creating livelihoods rooted in nature. “We can no longer treat nature as separate from development. Without it, neither business nor society can thrive,” he says.

Through grassroots leadership, climate action, and inclusive development, Dr. Tiwary is setting a powerful example of how India can balance progress with the planet. On Earth Day and beyond, his mission continues to inspire action across communities and corporations alike.
