When Dev Anand talked about losing his first love Suraiya ‘Had I gone to her, my life would have been different’

We look back on the occasions when late superstar Dev Anand discussed his first love, Suraiya, on the occasion of his 99th birthday. In a number of movies, including Vidya (1948), Jeet (1949), Shair (1949), Afsar (1950), Nili (1950), Do Sitare (1951), and Sanam, the two had collaborated.

Their love affair was discussed in detail in Dev Anand’s autobiography, Romancing with Life. According to PTI, he had said regarding the book, “It was destined that way. My life would have been different if I had gone to her. My life would have taken a different turn if I had married her. Maybe I wouldn’t be the Dev Anand I am today if it had happened.

When Dev Anand saved Suraiya from drowning while filming the song Kinare Kinare Chale Jayen Ge for the movie Vidya, they immediately fell in love. Dev dived into the lake to save her after she fell from the boat. In one of her interviews, Suraiya claimed that if he hadn’t intervened to save her, she wouldn’t be alive today. This drew her to Dev Anand’s attention.

Despite Suraiya’s grandmother’s objections, they eventually met, and the actor eventually caved. It is reported that Suraiya even had plans to elope with Dev Anand before her grandmother found out and derailed them. She objected to their interfaith romance.

Dev Anand acknowledged his fate and remarked, “I experienced my first true love. We are all familiar with the effects of first love on people. The pain of failing to obtain it follows. After being encouraged, optimism was suddenly rekindled, but disappointment returned when nothing changed.”

In 1954, Dev Anand wed Kalpana Kartik for good. Son Suneil Anand and daughter Devina were their two children.

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.
