The Barefoot College trains rural women to assemble and manufacture solar lamps, earning the nickname "Solar Mamas", according (https://in.finance.yahoo.com/news/apple-top-executive-visits-solar-092803326.html) to Yahoo India. The College connects rural communities to solar power and water.*The college also uses iPads to teach the women, with Apple India having donated (http://www.thebetterindia.com/45401/blog-def-tilonia-rajasthan-barefoot-college-ipad-wifi/) 20 iPads and 10 Macs earlier this year, reports (http://www.thebetterindia.com/45401/blog-def-tilonia-rajasthan-barefoot-college-ipad-wifi/)*The Better India.

Cook went to his first cricket game, a match from the country's Indian Premier League (IPL). Cook was interviewed on the sideline (http://www.iplt20.com/videos/media/id/4901416772001/tim-cook-describes-his-ipl-experience) alongside*IPL chairman Rajiv Shukla, with Shukla **ting that the league, from professional to junior levels, uses iPads to organize matches. After **ting how excited he was to be at his first cricket match, Cook once again called India "a great marketplace," saying that he's optimistic for the future of the country because of how talented its people are.
Bollywood superstar Shah Rukj Khan invited Cook to a private dinner at his home, which was attended by other big Bollywood stars, including Amitabh Bachchan, Aamir Khan, Aishwarya Rai and filmmaker Vidhu Vi**d Chopra, according (http://eco**mictimes.indiatimes.com/magazines/panache/apple-ceo-tim-cooks-bollywood-night-with-shah-rukh-khan/articleshow/52335416.cms) to The India Times. Before the dinner, Cook was escorted around the movie sets of the upcoming Raaz 4 by Mukesh Bhatt, president of India's Film and TV Producers Guild. Bhatt said Cook was "keen to see how Apple could partner with the [Indian film industry]."

Cook's five-day India trip is set to wrap up shortly after he meets Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi (http://www.macrumors.com/2016/05/16/tim-cook-to-visit-india-after-beijing-2016/) on Saturday. Cook's conversation with Modi may include several subjects, including Apple's recent an**uncement of a maps development center (http://www.macrumors.com/2016/05/19/apple-hyderabad-maps-development/) in Hyderabad, plans to establish an iOS app and design accelerator (http://www.macrumors.com/2016/05/18/apple-app-development-accelerator-india/) in the country and the Indian government's decision to approve single-branded Apple Stores (http://www.macrumors.com/2016/04/28/india-approves-single-branded-apple-retail-stores/).
India has increasingly become important to Apple's business, with the company's revenue growing 56 percent in the last quarter (http://www.macrumors.com/2016/05/18/tim-cook-india-visit-mumbai-temple/) and passing the $1 billion mark for the first time.
