On the night of May 20, 2025, a little girl in a faded pink frock fell asleep on her mother’s lap at Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus. Her parents, simple people from Solapur, had come to Mumbai for her father’s treatment. They were exhausted. Just for a moment, the mother closed her eyes.
When she opened them, her daughter was gone.
Six months.
Six months of walking from police station to police station.
Six months of showing the same crumpled photograph to strangers on trains, in slums, in orphanages.
Six months of the father not sleeping, the mother not eating, both of them growing hollow-eyed, whispering the same name into the dark: “Aarohi… Aarohi…”
In Varanasi, a thousand kilometres away, a tiny girl with no memory of her real name was learning to call herself “Kashi.” She had been found crying near the railway tracks in June, barefoot and terrified. The orphanage gave her food, a bed, and a new name. She smiled easily, because children always do, but sometimes at night she clutched the edge of her blanket and asked for “Aai” — Marathi for mother — and no one understood.
Back in Mumbai, the police refused to close the file. They printed posters with Aarohi’s face, stuck them on every platform from Lokmanya Tilak Terminus to Bhusawal to Varanasi Cantt. They ran newspaper ads, knocked on doors, begged journalists for help. Six months is a long time for hope to stay alive, but some officers carried her photograph in their shirt pockets like it was their own child.
Then, on November 13, a local reporter in Varanasi saw the poster. Something clicked. He had seen a girl who spoke Marathi words in her sleep. He made a phone call.
The next morning, a Mumbai Police inspector sat in front of a laptop in Varanasi and opened a video call. On the screen appeared a little girl in a pink frock — the same colour she was wearing the day she vanished. The mother, standing behind the officer in Mumbai, saw her daughter and collapsed without a sound. The father just kept repeating, “That’s my Aarohi… that’s my baby…”
They flew her back on Children’s Day — November 14.
When the plane landed, the entire Mumbai Crime Branch was waiting. They had bought her balloons and a new frock, sky blue this time. But the moment the little girl stepped out and saw the sea of khaki uniforms, she did something no one expected.
She ran.
Not away — toward them.
Tiny legs pumping, arms outstretched, she threw herself at the nearest officer and laughed — the purest, clearest laugh that had been missing from the world for half a year. The officer, a tough man who had seen everything, felt his eyes burn. He lifted her high, and she wrapped her arms around his neck like he was family.
Her parents were crying too hard to walk. So the policemen carried their daughter to them.
The mother touched her face again and again, as if checking she was real. The father fell to his knees and pressed his forehead to his child’s tiny feet, sobbing words no one could understand except God.
And the little girl? She just kept smiling, looking from her parents to the officers and back again, completely unaware that she had turned an entire police station into a sobbing, laughing, praying family.
Six months of darkness ended in one hug.
Aarohi is home now.
The kidnapper is still out there, but that is tomorrow’s fight.
Today, a mother is singing lullabies again.
Today, a father is smiling in his sleep.
And somewhere in Mumbai, there are policemen who will never forget the weight of a four-year-old girl in their arms — the weight of an entire life returned.
Sometimes the uniform doesn’t just catch thieves.
Sometimes it carries lost children all the way back to their mothers’ hearts.
In the Netflix documentary ‘Modern Masters’, there is a moment many people seem to have forgotten. Rajamouli speaks about Sanatana Dharma and explains that there are four traditional paths to reach the divine! Gnana Yoga, Bhakti Yoga, Karma Yoga, and Raja Yoga. He believes that he is a Karma Yogi, and for him, work itself is worship.
Anyone who truly understands Sanatana philosophy would never question a man like @ssrajamouli.
At the event yesterday, he did not mock God or insult anyone’s belief. He spoke with the innocence of a child who was excited to share something and was momentarily disappointed due to a technical glitch. His first reaction to it was emotional and it was a very human moment.
If one genuinely follows the spirit of Sanatana Dharma, they would recognize that it was an honest, vulnerable human expression!! not disrespect.
Rajamouli garu, has always shown deep respect for Indian epics, culture, and spiritual imagery. He is a sincere, and honest man with no harmful agenda towards anyone.
May Lord Hanuman continue to protect him from unjust abuse and needless hate.🙏🏻
I have told here liberally before.
I will tell once again.
Men's mental health matters too.
Just because they are silent doesn't mean that they are strong.
Women break down easily, cry, whine, winge - society is OK with it.
Men bottle up everything inside. If they whine or cry, society calls them "weak" and asks them to "man up". One day, they can't take it anymore. They either explode or implode. And neither of it is good.
I have seen so many males cry in my clinic. I let them. Perhaps, my clinic is the only place where they can let down their guard.
Men are under considerable stress. Even in today's day and age, in India, the main onus of earning and giving financial stability falls on a man's shoulders.
He may want to chuck that job away and stay at home, but he can't do it. Right from parental wellbeing to looking after spouse and kids, for their education, their weddings, post retirement savings, health care costs...man bears the major chunk of it in majority of households. Add to this all sorts of family dynamics.
Men - kindly seek help if you are unable to cope.
Women who love their men - kindly take your men to a healthcare professional if you see that they are suffering.
Disclaimer: tweet not for feminists. Kindly stay away. 🙏🏼

🔥🚨BREAKING: Prominent Judge Frank Caprio just passed away at the age of 88 just hours after asking for prayers during his battle with pancreatic cancer.
Can’t wrap my head around how News Editors are allowing reporters to question a child about the relationship status of her deceased mother and shamelessly telecasting it for views. May curse fall on those making 🤮 bulletins and thumbnails on YouTube. Kalyug in Journalism. Thu!
Inspiring!♥️
He delivered more than just my lunch. He delivered a lesson for life.
Yesterday, I ordered a simple lunch from Subway - a paneer tikka sandwich, Bingo chips, and oat raisin cookies.
When the order arrived, I could tell just by looking at the packet - only the sandwich had made it.
I told the delivery rider, “The chips and cookies are missing.”
He stuttered and struggled to respond but humbly said, “Sir, please call the restaurant or Zomato.”
I called Subway. They apologized and confirmed the miss.
They asked, “Can you send the rider back? We’ll pay him ₹20 for the trouble.”
But here’s the twist, technically, the rider isn’t supposed to go back unless Zomato tells him to.
Because Zomato pays him, not the restaurant.
But this man, this absolute gem, said: “Sir, it’s my responsibility. I want the customer to be happy.”
He didn’t see me as his customer.
But he saw the value in doing what was right.
He went back, picked up the missing items, came back smiling and refused the ₹20 from Subway.
He said, “God has given me so much. Why should I take this money for a mistake someone else made?”
Then, he shared his story and it gave me goosebumps.
He was once a construction supervisor, growing into a managerial role at Shapoorji Pallonji, earning ₹1.25 lakhs/month.
But a car accident changed everything.
His left side is paralyzed, hand and leg. He lost his job, his mobility, and for a while, his hope.
But Zomato changed that.
They gave him a job. A chance. A purpose.
He said: “Sir, Zomato kept my family alive. I may be handicapped, but I’ve been given an opportunity. I will never let Zomato’s name be affected.”
His daughter is now studying dentistry.
He rides not just for income, but to keep her dream alive.
He didn’t blame life.
He didn’t complain.
He didn’t give excuses.
Instead, he smiled, believed in Swami Samarth (his faith), and said: “God is with me. Why should I worry?”
To Deepinder Goyal and the Zomato team - thank you!
You might not realize it, but your decision to hire persons with disabilities is changing lives in the most profound way.
Today I received a sandwich.
But what stayed with me… was gratitude, resilience, and hope.
Stories like his deserve to be seen and celebrated.

చిలుకూరు బాలాజీ దేవాలయం అర్చకులు రంగరాజన్ గారి మీద కొంతమంది మతోన్మాదులు చేసిన దాడి దుర్మార్గం. "రామ రాజ్యం" పేరుతో కొంతమంది ఉన్మాదులు ఆయన ఇంటికి వెళ్లి మరీ దాడిచేయడం రాష్ట్రంలో శాంతిభద్రతల పరిస్థితికి అద్దంపడుతోంది.
రంగరాజన్ గారు విద్యాధికుడు. ఉస్మానియా యూనివర్సిటీ ��ుండి పట్టభద్రుడు. అనేక సంవత్సరాలు కార్పొరేట్ ఉద్యోగం చేసి, అనంతరం తండ్రి సౌందర రాజన్ బాటలో నడిచి అర్చకత్వం చేపట్టారు. గతంలో ఒక కంపెనీలో చాలా స్వల్ప కాలం నా సహోద్యోగిగా ఉన్నప్పుడు ఆయనను దగ్గరగా చూసే అవకాశం లభించింది. మృదుభాషి. మంచి కార్పొరేట్ ఉద్యోగం వదిలేసి హిందూ మతం మీద ప్రేమతో, దేవుడి మీద అపరిమితమైన భక్తితో దేవాలయ అర్చకుడిగా పూర్తికాలం పనిచేస్తున్న రంగరాజన్ వంటి వారి మీద కూడా అతివాదులు దాడులు చేస్తున్నారంటే పరిస్థితి ఎంత దిగజారుతున్నదో అర్థమవుతోంది.
హిందూ మతస్తులు మూడున్నర కోట్ల మంది దేవుళ్లను నమ్ముతారు. ఇప్పుడీ అతివాదులు రాముడి పేరు చెప్పుకుని స్వంత మతస్తుల మీదనే దాడి చేయడం చివరికి హిందూ మతానికే చేటు చేస్తుంది.
భిన్నత్వంలో ఏకత్వమే మన భారత సమాజపు విశేష లక్షణం. భిన్నాభిప్రాయాన్ని సహించని ఒక అసహన సమాజం నిర్మాణం చేసే శక్తులు చివరికి స్వంత మతస్తుల మీదికే వస్తాయని మరోసారి నిరూపణ అవుతోంది.
పోలీసులు వెంటనే బాధ్యుల మీద కఠిన చర్యలు తీసుకోవాలి.

It’s been a tough few weeks. My 10yo daughter was diagnosed with a very rare, aggressive cancer called interdigitating dendritic cell sarcoma (IDCS). I’m reaching out to identify clinicians/patients who have encountered pediatric IDCS, indeterminate dendritic cell histiocytosis or other (non-LCH) histiocytic sarcomas cases.
I'm trying to understand non-surgical chemo and targeted therapy options, new pathology markers to better diagnose subtypes/treatments, and any data on progression in pediatric patients. Please feel free to share – I’m trying to cast a wide net due to the rarity of this condition and how little is known.
People can contact me directly at my first name (as written in my profile) at https://t.co/ubo0zQRMn0.
అందరికన్నా ముందుగా సినిమా చూడాలని
అన్నింటికన్నా ఏ షో ముందు అయితే అది చూడాలని
బలంగా కోరుకునేది ఫ్యాన్స్.
ఫ్యాన్స్ అంటే ఓ సాధారణ కార్యకర్��� లాంటి వాడు
ఫ్యాన్స్ అంటే డబ్బు జేబునిండా వుండే వాడు కాదు
అలాంటి ఫ్యాన్స్ కు వీలైతే తక్కువకు చూపించ��లి
లేదా ఫ్యాన్స్ షోలు ప్రత్యేకంగా ఏర్పాటు చేసి
రెగ్యులర్ రేటు కు చూపించాలి
అంతే కానీ ఫ్యాన్స్ లేకుంటే తాము లేమని చెప్పే
హీరోలు అందరూ ఆ ఫ్యాన్స్ నే దోచుకోవడం ఏమిటి?
తిడితే తిట్టండి....కానీ ఆలోచించండి
