It’s one thing to create the mass euphoria of this scale and another to actually live up to and even exceed the expectations. #KGFChapter2  has done just that! The movie is a ‘Kalashnikov’- firing non-stop entertainment! A must watch in the theatre!

My Letter to the People of Mysuru

Dear Mysureans,

Namaste!

Last Sunday, I was in Mysuru to participate in the L’Étape Mysuru cycling event. Congratulations on having such a wonderful cycling event find its home in your beautiful city!

The event was fantastic and very well organised. But what struck me most was just how beautiful it is to cycle in Mysuru, inarguably Karnataka’s most beautiful city.

The wide roads, massive green trees, cool morning breeze, the challenging climb up Chamundi Hill and the rewarding downhill, the beautiful roads through quaint villages towards Varuna. Every bit was absolutely beautiful.

Many fellow cyclists who have cycled extensively abroad remarked that the experience was comparable to, and sometimes even better than, cycling in Western countries.

It is precisely for this reason that I am writing to you.

Please protect what you have. Do not allow this beautiful city to be destroyed by stupid, unplanned urbanisation that eats up everything beautiful, aesthetic and life-giving about a city. Unfortunately, this has happened to a great extent in Bengaluru.

I have four humble requests.

First, please do not allow flyovers inside your city.

Flyovers are among the ugliest things we can do to a beautiful city. They do not sustainably solve traffic congestion. Instead, they create ugly concrete monsters that destroy the aesthetics and character of a city.

If anyone proposes flyovers as a solution to Mysuru’s traffic problems, reject such proposals outright. Do not allow your beautiful boulevards to become concrete jungles.

Second, demand a completely underground Metro system for Mysuru.

Mysuru will grow. Economic activity will increase, and so will the demand for better urban mobility.

Please start planning for this future today.

An underground Metro can become the backbone of Mysuru’s public transport while preserving its beauty and aesthetics. Yes, it may be more expensive initially, but the long-term benefits to the city’s character and quality of life will make it worth every rupee.

Third, protect your boulevards, trees, parks, lakes and open spaces at all costs.

One reason urban life in most Indian cities has become so stressful is the grave shortage of green and open spaces.

These are not luxuries. They are essential to our physical and mental well-being. They allow us to slow down, breathe and reconnect with our real home, nature.

Mysuru still has so much of this. Please do not allow these treasures to disappear in the name of development. Once lost, they are almost impossible to recreate.

Fourth, preserve Mysuru’s walking culture.

One of the most heartening things I noticed was how many people still walk long distances.

This wonderful culture has almost disappeared from many cities because we have started building cities exclusively for cars, not people.

Invest heavily in good footpaths, pedestrian crossings, shaded walking streets and safe public spaces. Make walking the most natural and enjoyable way of moving around Mysuru.

Along with an underground Metro and good public transport, this can make Mysuru a model for Indian urban development.

Mysuru is not just another city. It is a cultural symbol of Karnataka. Its history, heritage, institutions and contribution to modern, progressive Karnataka make it truly special.

Bengaluru has unfortunately made many mistakes in its urbanisation. Mysuru has the opportunity to learn from them rather than repeat them.

Development need not come at the cost of beauty. Modernisation need not mean destroying heritage. Economic growth need not mean making cities unliveable.

I sincerely hope Mysureans will take an active interest in how their city grows, support good urban planning, oppose bad infrastructure proposals and protect everything that makes Mysuru special.

You have inherited one of India’s most beautiful cities. Please ensure that future generations inherit an even more beautiful Mysuru.

Love,

Tejasvi Surya

I’m NOT blindly defending #ToxicTheMovie just bcz I’m a Yash fan. I’ve openly criticized the album too—check my Aug 13 posts/reposts/comments.

But after watching it yesterday… WHAT THE FUCK? 😭

How are people calling this “no story” & a flop?

For me: 8/10 💥🎪

Just watched #ToxicTheMovie and I seriously do not understand the hate. The movie gets almost everything right. They say too much violence intimacy and aura farming, but that is exactly what the character demands- he IS TOXIC for gods sake! 1/n

THIS IS BIGGER THAN A MOVIE.

For the man. For the team. For years of relentless effort, sacrifice and dedication.

You may like #Toxic or you may not. That is completely your choice.

But watching paid negativity, targeted campaigns and manufactured narratives being used to pull down something that took years of hard work should make every human being stop and think.

Yash is an inspiration to millions. A man who dared to dream beyond the ordinary, who wanted to take Kannada cinema to the world and make people look at our industry with RESPECT.

And when someone carries a vision this big, money is never the whole point. The legacy is. The impact is.

So this is not about blindly defending a film.

This is about standing up for a man and a team who dared to build something extraordinary.

If you have a voice, use it.

Call out what feels wrong. Let genuine audiences speak. Don’t let manufactured narratives decide the fate of someone’s years of dedication.

Because sometimes, standing together isn’t just support.
Sometimes, it becomes a REVOLUTION.

FOR THE MAN.
FOR THE TEAM.
FOR THE DREAM.
FOR CINEMA.

LET’S STAND UNITED.
LET’S SHOW OUR STRENGTH.

Story, acting, BGM, dialogues, action, visuals- everything is top notch, something that we could only dream of witnessing in KFI in the pre- Yash era. 4 years of hard work clearly shows. You don’t need to agree or disagree with anyone- just watch it and decide yourself. #toxic

First half did not seem disconnected at all - there is just enough introduction for all the characters. They say too many punch dialogues but I loved all of them, none of them seemed out of place. The climax is mind blowing and @TheNameIsYash is brilliant! 2/n

I have been following Indian cricket for more than four decades and I do not have any doubt over my favourite series win.

Go well, Ajinkya Rahane. You led a comeback I did not think was possible – and I was not alone in this.

[KSR @KShriniwasRao]

#SouravGanguly

The 144 wasn’t just his personal best. It is one of the greatest Test knocks played by any visiting batter in Australia.

For India, Ganguly’s 144 at Gabba is a cornerstone in Test cricket. An innings that allowed India to finally grow in confidence that they could stand up to the Aussies in their backyard.

Tendulkar’s 114 was from an era that today’s generation perhaps won’t understand. Dravid’s 233 was grit, sweat and determination. Laxman’s 167 had magic. Virat’s 123 had swagger. Rahane’s 112 was a fightback. Pant’s 89 sweet & historic.

But Ganguly’s 144 was a conquest. He showed India what was possible. Something we knew very little about.

Remember the morning in front of the television like it was yesterday. That helmet coming off and he jumping into the air in celebration when the century came off MacGill.

Cricket’s keyboard warriors wouldn’t know what Indian cricket was like in the days when Dada ruled. Today’s so-called Twitter influencers would’ve eaten from his hands and how.

Can’t think of another Indian cricketer — until Virat arrived — who had the stomach and the itch for a fight at the drop of a hat.

Can’t think of another name that polarised world cricket like Sourav did.

That Hall Of Fame is bloody well deserved.

25 years ago at Eden Gardens Rahul and I shared a partnership that will forever remain special. In a moment when the game looked beyond us we chose belief, patience and resilience. That stand was not just about runs but was about trust, teamwork and fighting for every session. Grateful to have shared that journey with Rahul and to be part of a Test that reminded us all that in cricket comebacks are always possible👍 @BCCI #PowerOfPartnership #Believe #Resilience

[Axar Patel @akshar2026]

A tournament to remember.
Grateful for every moment, every challenge, and every bit of support along the way.

Champions, once again. 💙🇮🇳🏆

[Jasprit Bumrah @Jaspritbumrah93]

India. Home. World Champions. 🇮🇳🏆

Couldn’t have imagined this any better even if I tried. From dreaming about playing for India in this city to creating history here, it’s been a blessed ride.
Grateful for this team, the support, the fans, and this moment.
