Fabelle crafts personalised Rakhi chocolates using AI for siblings
MUMBAI: Why gift socks or a last-minute card, when you can gift nostalgia, inside jokes, and a sprinkle of AI wrapped in chocolate? This Raksha Bandhan, Fabelle Exquisite Chocolates, the luxury brand from ITC Ltd., is out to rescue brothers from the tyranny of generic gifting. Enter #WorthTheOne, a personalised chocolate experience that blends tech, taste, and tender sibling chaos into one deliciously curated box.
Every year, brothers scramble for something anything that says “I care” without screaming “I forgot.” But Fabelle’s new offering changes the game by transforming the bond between siblings into an edible, handcrafted, AI-curated keepsake.
Here’s how it works: head to the worththeone.com website and take a fun, slightly nosey sibling compatibility test. Based on your answers covering everything from who’s the overachiever to who hogs the remote, an AI engine analyses your emotional dynamics, quirks, rivalries, and affections. This data is then used to customise a box of luxury truffles that reflect your sibling equation.
And this isn’t your average Rakhi chocolate box. Each #WorthTheOne box features 20 bespoke truffles in five unique flavours, all handcrafted by ITC’s Master Chocolatiers using cocoa sourced from across the globe. From the nostalgia-drenched Saffron Rasmalai Truffle to the exotic Ruby Hazelnut Gianduja, every flavour represents a different layer of the sibling bond sweet, spicy, dramatic, and heartwarming.
“No two boxes are the same,” says ITC Foods vice president and head of marketing for chocolates, coffee and confectionary Anuj Bansal. “This is not just a gift; it’s an experience. We’re using AI to convert memories, quirks, and emotional textures into something luxurious, handcrafted, and deeply personal.”
Even the packaging gets the personalised treatment. Every box comes tailored with the sibling’s names and relationship traits subtly worked into the design. The result? A gift that doesn’t just sit on a shelf, it tells a story.
Fabelle has consistently positioned itself at the intersection of craft, luxury, and emotion. With #WorthTheOne, it’s doubling down on its philosophy by bringing storytelling and technology into the confectionary fold.
From the moment the AI curates the flavours to the time the first bite takes you back to a shared childhood prank, #WorthTheOne is built to make your sibling say, “Okay, fine, you’re my favourite this year.”
As Rakhi traditions get a gourmet upgrade, Fabelle proves once again that chocolate isn’t just sweet, it’s smart, stylish, and deeply sentimental.

YES Bank appoints S Anantharaman as chief risk officer
Former Jio Financial Services group chief risk officer takes charge of enterprise-wide risk at the embattled private lender
MUMBAI: YES Bank is not taking chances with risk anymore. The private lender has appointed S Anantharaman as its chief risk officer, a hire that signals the bank’s continued effort to rebuild credibility and tighten the controls that once famously slipped.
Anantharaman arrives from Jio Financial Services, where he served as group chief risk officer and built a risk management architecture spanning lending, payments, insurance broking and asset management from the ground up. Before that, he held the chief risk officer role at Bank of Baroda and senior leadership positions at HDFC Bank and L&T Finance Holdings. Three decades in banking and financial services, in other words, with scars and qualifications to match. He is a chartered accountant and a CFA charterholder.
At YES Bank, his brief is considerable. Anantharaman will oversee the bank’s entire enterprise-wide risk framework, covering credit policy, market risk, operational risk, information security, data governance, analytics, model governance and data privacy. It is, in short, every lever that matters when a bank is trying to prove it has grown up.
YES Bank’s turbulent past needs little rehearsing. What it needs now is exactly what Anantharaman has spent thirty years building: the kind of risk culture that stops problems before they become headlines. The appointment suggests the bank knows it.
