This clip is from the 2026 Asian U23 Athletics Championships, held at the Sport Development Center Stadium in Ordos, Inner Mongolia, China, from 9–12 July 2026.
Shravani Sangle, a 20-year-old sprinter from Maharashtra ran the final leg for India in the mixed 4×400 m
China led going into the closing metres, & Shravani came from behind to pass China’s anchor just 0.10 seconds ahead.
I was holding my breath watching that final lap. It didn’t look even conceivable that she would be able to catch up.
But Shravan wasn’t willing to see finishing second to a powerhouse like China as inevitable & acceptable.
She didn’t see the yawning gap as an impossibility.
She was practising the art of the possible…
Giving up wasn’t acceptable.
Shravani is my #MondayMotivation
Brits murdered 35 million of us, contrived 12 devastating famines, looted $45 trillion, reduced India to an opium economy, broke us in two, left us with a life expectancy of 32 years. But we survived.
India is beautiful because Indians are beautiful. Happy Independence Day! 🇮🇳
The language we choose reflects our personality and the kind of person we are. Choose your words wisely, because over time, you become what you think, what you speak, and what you practice.
Using bad language is not cool. Abusing is not cool.
Let’s keep the definition of cool simple: being hardworking, kind, respectful towards others and yourself, striving to be successful through honesty, and making your parents and your country proud.
THAT’S COOL.
I’m speaking about this because, over the past few years, the way we perceive abusive language has changed. For many, using such words has become so normal that it’s even considered “cool.” Without realizing it, people casually use degrading and disrespectful language in everyday conversations.
THIS IS THE BIGGEST RESULT FOLKS! 🤯🔥
GULVEER SINGH WON THE HISTORIC FIRST EVER MEDAL IN 10,000M FOR INDIA

Winning against the Chinese. In China.
At the Asian Relay Championships.
Srabani, Sudeshna, Sneha & Tamanna in the 4x100 relay.
Power. Speed. Grace. Commitment.
But above all, teamwork.
This clip has it all.
I’m watching it on loop.
More of this please. 🇮🇳
An idol of Nandi was found in 1997 during excavation at the Kadu Malleswara temple in Bengaluru. The secret is that clean water (tirtha) is continuously coming out of the mouth of this dry stone idol for 24 hours. This water falls on the Shivling in front. Scientists and geologists have not been able to find the source of this water, which has been flowing continuously for 25 years, to this day where this water is coming from without any pipes or tanks.
It was responsibility of both the govt and the BCCI to ensure India does not play Pakistan in Asia Cup. They failed.
Now the choice is yours: either shrug it off with “if they don’t care, why should I” and watch, or refuse to watch and make a statement.
I hope you choose the latter. Don’t watch, neither on TV, nor online, nor through apps. Don’t even engage when cricket accounts post live scores or hype the match as it gets “interesting.”
Refusing to engage is a small act for each of us, but together it becomes a powerful statement that neither the govt nor the BCCI can ignore. Let silence be the rebellion.
@sardesairajdeep Apparently the visuals are from Airport road metro station which is around 2 kms away from entry gate of T2 (international airport). Fek marne ki bhi limit rakho..
If Saurabh Netravalkar, who had figures of 2-18 and bowled USA to victory in the super over vs Pakistan, wasn't disgustingly talented enough -- ( He is an engineer at Oracle and an MS in CS from Cornell University.) he's also a damn fine ukelele player. (video from his insta)
