Bengaluru was supposed to celebrate on Wednesday. Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB), a team with perhaps the country’s most loyal fan base, won their first IPL title. Ending an 18-year-long wait. A victory parade was planned. Spirits were high. And for once, even traffic-weary Bengalureans didn’t seem to mind the chaos. But that planned celebration soon turned into a catastrophe.

When I first met my husband, it was through an arranged marriage setup. My mother and brothers went to see him on my behalf. In our community, this is common. The families meet, tea is served, questions are asked, and impressions are formed quickly. I remember what they told me afterward. He seemed simple, respectful, and refreshingly unassuming. He said he didn’t expect much, even claimed he’d be happy eating Maggi every night.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) hasn’t even reached its full potential yet. And we’re already deeply dependent on it. Whenever we need to do something, we turn to AI. Small tasks that once required even a sliver of thought are now routinely offloaded. Today, AI does everything from writing an email to drafting a message, responding to someone, and preparing a proposal. Even something as simple as commenting on someone’s social media post is often written by AI.

I’m a lazy creature. I want to eat healthy, but don’t want to do much in the kitchen. Cooking? Ah, too much effort. So I’m always hunting for ideas that require little to no prep. Bonus, if they’re good for my gut and skin and are kind to the planet. No-cook foods are having a moment. Want glowing skin? No-cook. Better digestion? No-cook. A lighter, happier body? You guessed it — no-cook. And here’s something no one talks about: No-cook foods can be surprisingly climate-friendly.

At eleven years old, my body turned against me. Though my face still held the gentle innocence of childhood, my chest swelled into the curves of a grown woman. Some might see it as a blessing. But for me, it was an unyielding, relentless curse. Overnight, I became a magnet for hungry eyes. Male guests, family friends, uncles, even the insurance agent, couldn’t meet my gaze when I spoke. Their stares lingered on my chest. Like thorns. Sharp and unrelenting, refusing to let go.

Lying flat on the stretcher, I felt lifeless as they wheeled me into the OT around 3:45 PM, Monday. On the way, before they took me in, the nurse told my mother to “see her before the operation.”I didn’t fully understand what they meant. But I saw tears in my mother’s eyes as if I were going to war. (I was, I didn’t realise it then.)As I entered the operating room, a team of doctors was waiting.

“So, any good news?” If you’re a married woman in India, you’ve probably heard this question more times than you can count. At first, it may sound innocent — even playful. But behind the smile and small talk lies a web of expectations, subtle judgment, and deeply ingrained societal pressure. Within months of marriage — sometimes even weeks — the question becomes inescapable. One missed period, and suddenly, you’re the subject of everyone’s hopeful speculation. The unspoken assumption?

Yesterday, I asked my husband: “Is Virat Kohli having an affair?”I don’t usually keep up with celebrity gossip, but he does. Not the films — just the gossip. He knows all the actors—big names, small names—and stays updated on who’s doing what, where, and with whom. So naturally, when I heard a rumour, I figured he’d know the truth. But instead of confirming or denying, he played innocent. “Is he?”“I don’t know,” I said.
