Ayushmann compliments the women-led society in Northeast India, saying, “Women keep shops, men raise babies.”

When they were in college, Ayushmann Khurrana revealed that one of his band members used to call him an outsider. The Anek actor was discussing about discrimination when he said that a member of his college music band was from Manipur and called him ‘Mayang’ (a term used to refer to non-Manipuri Indians).

‘Also’, Ayushmann’s upcoming film, will have him in the role of a cop. The film is directed by Anubhav Sinha and is set in the geopolitics of North East India.

“(I felt the agony that people from the north-east face) for the first time when I was in college,” Ayushmann told Prabhat Khabar in an interview. We had a Manipuri guy named Mayang when I was 19 years old (it means an outsider). When I questioned why, he said, “You guys treat us like outsiders, so we’ll call you outsiders.” Anubhav sir’s yoga instructor is from Meghalaya, and I learned a lot from him.”

He went on to say that one of the key characteristics of the region is that it is a woman-centric society. “Unlike the rest of the world, all of the shops are women, and the males look after the children. Even my Burmese mother used to tell me that. The north east is far more progressive than the rest of the country, and if we connect with them, we might be able to emulate them,” he continued.

Ayushmann further said that his mother has never suffered any prejudice because she is half-Punjabi and comes from a wealthy household. He went on to say that discrimination is especially common among students and in low-income areas.

‘Also’, which also stars Andrea Kevichusa, Manoj Pahwa, Kumud Mishra, and J D Chakravarthy, will be released in theatres on May 27. “India is a difficult country, it is really distinct from all other nations,” Ayushmann recently told PTI about his film. There are so many distinct areas, faiths, and communities in the United States. We’re here because we share a sense of belonging. Our country is one-of-a-kind, and we should appreciate it. That one-of-a-kindness is diversity, and diversity is Anek. There should be a sense of unity. That is what an Indian is because we are a mash-up of many civilizations, and rather than dividing ourselves, we should appreciate it.”

Food blogger attacked by Swara Bhasker for boasting about being a vegetarian on Twitter: “Smug self-righteousness”

Food blogger attacked by Swara Bhasker for boasting about being a vegetarian on Twitter: “Smug self-righteousness”

In response to food blogger Nalini Unagar’s “proud to be a vegetarian” tweet, actor Swara Bhasker attacked Unagar. On Sunday, Nalini posted a photo of her lunch at X. It included a paneer dish and fried rice.

What was said by the food blogger?
Nalini shared the picture and added, “I’m happy to be a vegetarian. There are no more tears, cruelty, or guilt on my platter.”

This is Swara’s response.
In response, Swara penned, “To be honest… I find vegetarians’ arrogant self-righteousness to be incomprehensible. Denying the calf its mother’s milk, forcing cows to become pregnant, ripping them from their calves, and taking their milk are the main components of your diet.”

Furthermore, she said, “You eat root vegetables? That eliminates the entire plant! Just because it’s Bakr Eid, don’t stress about virtue signalling (folded hands emojis). June 16–17 is when Bakr Eid, or Eid al-Adha, is observed.

Swara just had her Eid celebration.
A few months after celebrating Eid al-Fitr, Swara posted a tweet. She celebrated the occasion with her daughter Raabiyaa and spouse Fahad Ahmad. On her Instagram Stories, Swara posted snippets of her Eid festivities. Swara and Raabiyaa were shown in one of the stories pointing at the Eid ka Chaand. Another photo shows Swara, her daughter, and Fahad posing as a family. Fahad is Muslim, but Swara is Hindu.

When Swara discussed the cultures of her and Fahad
Swara performed a chhathi puja for Raabiyaa the previous year. She revealed tidbits from the festivities and reported discovering shared cultural experiences with Fahad’s family. “The child is a mish mash of the mish mash we are,” Swara had wrote. She therefore has 62.5% UP, 12.5% Bihar, and 25% Andhra. Furthermore, I support representation and am always up for a celebration! Furthermore, since our wedding, we’ve learned that Muslims and Hindus in North India have common cultural customs, which strengthens my conviction that, despite our variety, love and joy will always find a language.”

“Chhathhi, or the sixth day of a child’s birth, is celebrated throughout UP Bihar. Mom and kid dress in the colour of turmeric or haldi, and aunts or bua put kaajal on the child and parents to protect them from ‘nazar,’ or the evil eye! I’m performing a well-known “sohar”—celebration songs for new babies. Although sohars are often used to celebrate newborn boys, I customised it for a newborn girl—oh! And although sisters and aunts sing the sohars, mothers don’t, so I thought, “Why not?” Dholak aa gaya hai! Thank you to @manisha2967 for the Chhathhi lesson and the beautiful singing I was able to do, and to Bhanu ji @partapsinghb11 for the dholak that helped make my singing pleasant.
