‘India Property Insider’ debuts in UAE, ties-up with GN Media to target Indian Diaspora
MUMBAI: Young Media, a renowned Media and Publishing House, attempts to reach the Indian community in UAE with the launch of its ambitious magloid named ‘India Property Insider’ in association with Gulf News daily. The objective of this magloid – magazine in a tabloid format – is to inform NRI audience in the UAE with ‘need to know’ and ‘nice to know’ facts about the real estate sector in India. Being informative, motivating and illustrative at the same time, this magloid attempts to satisfy both the emotional and rational reasoning of NRIs who wish to own a house in their mother land.
Young Media founder and director Wilfred Fernandes stated, “There has been a long pending need felt among the NRI community based in the Gulf of a vehicle that offers regular updates and advisories on the Indian real estate sector that is customised for the NRI community. We felt that India Property Insider will be the perfect vehicle for NRIs empowering them to take informed decisions whilst investing in real estate in India.”
Young Media has tied up with Gulf News for direct distribution of the magloid which will be available free for readers of Gulf News daily. Having sizeable proportion of Indian community in UAE, in cities like New Dubai, Jumeirah, Ghusais, Karama, Bur Dubai, New Deira, Sharjah and Abu Dhabi, ‘India Property Insider’ promises a good reach in these cities and facilitate sales for Indian real estate developers from the NRI customer segment on a sustained basis.
Furthermore, speaking on this enterprising launch, Sanjay Malik, group circulation manager of GN Media said, “Indians by their very nature are hard working and have a propensity to save and this holds especially true for Indians living in the Gulf. Also, being away from home there is a certain desire to save money and invest or create an asset which will appreciate over the years. Real estate is the only asset that gives maximum appreciation value and also offers them a chance of owning a home and being rooted to their motherland.”
With rich content and conversational presentation style, ‘India Property Insider’ would empower the NRIs in UAE to easily navigate through the Indian real estate sector, motivate them to invest in realty in India and actively enable decision-making in terms of property purchase.

Crocs and Lego launch new collaborative collection in India
Iconic brands bring playful creativity to footwear with first drop on 13 April 2026.
MUMBAI: Crocs and Lego have clicked together once again and this time, the bricks are heading straight for Indian feet. The global footwear brand Crocs has announced the India launch of its latest Crocs x Lego Group collection, following the excitement of their multi-year global partnership unveiled earlier this year. The collaboration celebrates creativity, play, and individuality, merging Crocs’ signature comfort with Lego’s iconic building-block spirit.
The collection will roll out in two phases. A digital-exclusive pre-launch begins on 13 April 2026 on crocs.in, featuring four styles: the Lego Masterbrand Creativity Clog, Lego Midnight Garden Creativity Clog, Lego Creativity Clog, and Kids’ Lego Creativity Clog. Each pair purchased during this phase will include an exclusive Lego minifigure as a collectible bonus.
From May 2026, the full collection will be available across select Crocs stores, VegNonVeg, and Foot Locker outlets nationwide.
The designs playfully blend Crocs’ classic clog silhouette with Lego brick-inspired details, complete with custom Jibbitz charms on the upper and sole. The collection encourages wearers to treat their footwear as a canvas for personal expression, without any set instructions just an open invitation to build, explore, and have fun.
Crocs chief marketing officer Carly Gomez said, “The Lego Group’s boundless imagination makes them the perfect match to Crocs’ wonderfully unordinary spirit. We are both brands that pride ourselves on being built different, celebrating self-expression and fuelling creativity.”
LEGO Group, head of licensing & extended line design & partnerships Satwik Saraswati added, “Our common mission to enable self-expression and wear it with pride only marks the beginning of a journey with endless possibilities.”
The campaign will extend beyond the product launch through creator-led seeding, elevated visual merchandising, and exclusive on-ground previews, supported by a deeper partnership with the Lego India team.
In a market that loves both comfort and fun, Crocs and Lego have built something special, a collection that lets every step feel like playtime. Get ready to click your heels (or rather, your clogs) because this collaboration is set to be a blockbuster hit with Indian fans.
