In case you are wondering where did the diwali night smoke go? Easterly winds helped it dissipate and some of it was carried towards the west. Many regions in Pakistan are facing severe pollution.

Any serious news outlet (not NDTV, Arnab & Sudhir etc) will of course be able to receive the documentation to confirm how I have a visa in my passport that suddenly does not function anymore.

What caught my attention is this slide. Whole fitness influencer market was promoting GLP-1 drug,without accountability and even some where supplier. But look at this dude questioning @theliverdoc for his authority. He never called out his fellow influencer,but here, audacity

Unpopular Opinion. Ramanand Sagar's #Ramayana and BR Chopra's #Mahabharat were not the gold standard of the epics. They were TV adaptations, heavily distorted, dramatised, and loaded with invented scenes, events and dialogues But nostalgia has turned them into untouchable scripture. If all these self proclaimed "Dharmic Experts" watched both series again with the same microscope they use on every new adaptation like the lastest #Ramayana movie, they would find hundreds of issues there too. many deviations, many creative liberties, many distortions. So please, stop pretending the old serials were perfect and every new attempt is blasphemy. The standard you are applying today was never applied back then.

A South Indian friend of mine living in Ahmedabad is constantly judged, stereotyped, and ignored in public spaces solely because of his dark skin tone. No matter how sharply he dresses or presents himself, people treat him like second-class. ++

Working in a hospital that serves the cream of the society is character-forming. Unlike a GH, you routinely meet patients who are far more accomplished than you and order of magnitudes richer. Nothing cures "I m a doctor, I say ,you do" attitude better than a high IQ patient, who pushes back. If I were a Dean , I would strongly encourage a two-week posting in a corporate hospital.

Crude oil drops 10%. Petrol price drops 0%. Indian maths at its finest.

Chappal chori outside places of worship also can't be imagined in most countries. But yeah quick commerce service is excellent.

The year 2037. We are all ruled by AI. At 10.55pm when you are still bursting crackers it disables your phones and the electricity in your house. You call AI anti national and ask it why it only lectures you once a year. It doesn’t listen, says a law is a law and you are 55 minutes over. You spend the night in darkness. Could happen.

Dhurandhar is quite like Namit Malhotra’s Ramayana in terms of character portrayal. Remember in Dhurandhar 1, Rehman Dakait, the villain was outshining everyone, people became fans of the character. People said he overshadowed Hamza. Only in part 2- fittingly named the Revenge is when Hamza Ali Mazari got to show his mettle and emerge as the veritable Super hero.

Ramayana reportedly collected ₹663.90 crore worldwide in just five days, including ₹346.35 crore net in India. Monday alone reportedly brought in ₹107.50 crore domestically. These box-office figures are hard to digest. The box-office claims seem far removed from the actual viewing experience.

I burst crackers not to ragebait or witness liberal tears nor because I believe it is some ancient religious practice during Kali pujo/Deepabali. I do it because I love to do it. I do it because it keeps my childhood memories fresh. I do it because it makes me happy.
