Wherever destiny has taken them, bustling metros, quiet suburbs, new continents, or unfamiliar cultures, Indians across the world have carried something priceless with them – their resilience, ambition, and belonging. This spirit has shaped not just their personal journeys but also the global narrative of excellence, leadership, and community. At Maneesh Media, we call this remarkable phenomenon “The Global Indian Footprint.”
When Maneesh Media began its publishing journey a quarter-century ago, the mission was simple yet profound – to tell stories that deserve to be remembered.
While the world often celebrates achievements, it rarely documents the emotional, cultural, and generational journeys behind them. This is where Maneesh Media found its purpose, capturing the essence of individuals and families who not only built successful lives abroad but carried with them the values, traditions, and resilience that define India.
These stories soon began connecting generations, preserving legacies, and creating a shared pride among communities worldwide. What began as a publishing house has now become India’s leading diaspora book publisher.
72 Publications, And Each One a Testament to Indian Excellence
Over the years, Maneesh Media has produced 72 meticulously curated publications, legacy books, Indian diaspora story books, in coffee-table editions. Each book provides a window into the life of an individual, a family, or an entire diaspora community.
These are not merely books. They are preserved memories, passed on with pride. That captures the grit of first generation migrants, the ambition of entrepreneurs who built global empires, the philanthropy that uplifted communities, the values that shaped generations, the cultural roots that stayed alive across continents. Every publication reflects our commitment to authenticity, depth, and storytelling that moves hearts.
2200+ Families – Stories That Inspire Generations
Behind every milestone is a family that dared to dream beyond borders. Maneesh Media has had the privilege of documenting over 2200 such families, each contributing in a unique way to the global Indian narrative.
These families include pioneers who left India decades ago, trailblazers shaping industries today, and youth carrying forward their parents’ legacies with fresh vision. Their stories highlight not just success, but perseverance, exploring unfamiliar lands, building homes away from home, and maintaining a deep emotional connection with their roots.
Through their journeys, readers find motivation, belonging, and a reminder that identity travels with you, no matter where life takes you.
A Footprint Across 40+ Countries
Maneesh Media’s reach has extended across 40+ countries, from the United States to Kenya, from the UK to UAE, from Australia to Canada. Everywhere we go, we find a shared thread – the Indian diaspora contributing to their adopted countries while nurturing a strong bond with India.
This global presence allows us to showcase diversity in experience, stories shaped by different cultures, opportunities, and challenges, yet unified by the same values of hard work, family, and community.
Each country adds a new shade to the Global Indian identity, enriching the narrative we are honoured to preserve.
Celebrating 25 Years – A Legacy of Storytelling
Completing 25 years is more than an anniversary, it is a celebration of trust, dedication, and the power of storytelling. For two and a half decades, Maneesh Media has stood as the bridge connecting generations, ensuring stories are not lost but recorded with dignity and pride.
As we look ahead, our mission remains unchanged to continue expanding the Global Indian narrative, discovering new stories, and honouring the legacy of those who inspire the world.
