Technically Sri Lanka invented flying cars 5,000 years ago, not India. Ravana was the king of Lanka, not India.
At least get the mythology right before claiming the technology.

Infighting within the Mahayuti is now out in the open.
BJP accuses Shiv Sena (ES) of sabotaging elections in Pune and Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar. NCP (AP), which drew a blank in the polls, calls for organisational rehaul.
Big Q: will the 3 parties contest in 2029 together?

Say whatever I guess but many years ago, Prof Deepak Pawar told me that the Mumbai of Mumbaikars includes those who want to call it Bombay but Bombayites insisting on calling it Bombay do not want to include the Mumbaikars. It’s a class thing.
I genuinely have a question to all those who still call the city as Bombay and not Mumbai.
It has been 30 years since the city is renamed as Mumbai. And still the non-native speakers insist on calling it Bombay. Some of the native speakers also go by the same name while speaking in Hindi or English. I see that in reels, filmy people conversations, college kids' conversations, and everywhere else too.
I don't really have an issue with whatever you wanna call the city but the insistence of calling it Bombay is like disrespecting the local identity and language and feelings of the original inhabitants. And though Mumbai is a cosmopolitan city, it has its own language, culture, food, identify. The local flavour needs to be RESPECTED.
And don't give me a political argument.... Some of you weren't even born when the politics around it happened. Apart from that, what is the reason?

Mumbai is heading towards floating hoardings now! 😂
At this rate, political parties will start erecting banners in the middle of the Arabian Sea with complete impunity.
Footpaths, flyovers, walls and now waterfronts. Instead of letting Mumbai’s public spaces become advertising billboards, why not turn them into tourist attractions?
Why settle for uncontrolled hoardings when Mumbai can create world-class public experiences, generate revenue and boost tourism?
Less visual pollution. More innovation. Regulated advertising that pays for itself.

The nostalgia debate is also overrated. Chennai is rarely called Madras, but Mumbai is too difficult for some reason!

हा व्हिडिओ (डॉक्युमेंट्री) सर्व ठिकाणांहून डिलीट केला जात आहे. पोलिसांमार्फतही अनेकांना धमकावून, तर काहींना विनंती करून हा व्हिडिओ डिलीट करण्यास भाग पाडले जात आहे.
जेवढ्या वेळा भाजप हा व्हिडिओ डिलीट करेल, तेवढ्या वेळा आम्ही तो पुन्हा अपलोड करत राहू. सर्वांनी हा व्हिडिओ एकदा नक्की पाहा आणि तो प्रत्येक भारतीय नागरिकापर्यंत पोहोचवा.

Adani is suing me for ₹50 crore, apparently valuing the damage to his reputation at that amount.
I contend that wealth acquired through alleged wrongdoing does not confer credibility or reputation.
My valuation of that reputation? ₹0.
And if the reputational damage is zero, the compensation should be zero.
₹50 crore demanded. ₹0 deserved.

My friend msged me..UP elections remind him of Dil to Paagal Hai. Rahul is after Maya...even the song haathi jaisi soondh...chak dhum dhum..
They charged us more when we were returning from Rohini too. Maybe planted by the CM to discourage people from watching Jailer 2 😅

Whenever a major political crisis arises Fadnavis seems completely clueless. He needs to understand that he is leading Maharashtra and such cluelessness is simply not acceptable. Be it Maratha reservation or the Marathi issue his inability to handle things is costing Maharashtra dearly.

सध्या महाराष्ट्रात एक ‘फ्रेंडशिप फाईल’ ऑडिओ क्लिप व्हायरल होत आहे. तुम्ही सगळ्यांनी ऐकली असेल. भारतीय जनता पक्षाचे काही पदाधिकारी, या पक्षाच्या सोशल मीडियात महत्वाची भूमिका बजावणारे, राष्ट्रीय स्वयंसेवक संघाचे एक ज्येष्ठ पदाधिकारी आणि स्वतःला निष्पक्ष राजकीय विश्लेषक म्हणवणारे पण खरंतर भारतीय जनता पक्षाच्या चिखलफेक सैन्याचं चिलखत घालून फिरणारे काही युट्युब प्रभावक यांच्यातल्या मैत्रीची ’फ्रेंडशिप फाईल’ ऑडिओ क्लिप. यांत कोणी कोणाला ५०० कोटी दिले इथपासून ते थेट माध्यमांना आम्ही कशी जरब दाखवू शकतो, ते एखादा भावनिक मुद्दा सरकारच्या अंगाशी आला तर लगेच त्या मुद्द्यापासून लोकांचं लक्ष कसं भरकटवायचं यासाठी नविन धार्मिक ध्रुवीकरणाचा मुद्दा कसा रेटला पाहिजे यासाठी काय केलं पाहिजे याचीही चर्चा करताना ऐकायला येत आहे. ही क्लिप खरंतर २९ मिनिटांची आहे. त्यातल्या ५०० कोटींचा मुद्दा गाजतोय. त्यावर खुलासे येतील आणि यायलाच पाहिजेत. पण भारतीय जनता पक्ष काय पद्धतीने समाज माध्यमं, माध्यमं यांच्यावर दडपशाही आणत आहे यावर पण चर्चा व्हायला हवी.
मुख्यमंत्र्यांनी मी ऑडिओ क्लिपचा फॉरेन्सिक रिपोर्ट मागवला आहे असं म्हणून वेळ मारून न्यायचा प्रयत्न केला आहे. फॉरेन्सिक अहवाल हा ऑडिओ किंवा व्हिडिओची तथ्यता याबरोबर खून, बलात्कार, आर्थिक घोटाळे यांच्यासारख्या गंभीर गुन्ह्यात पुराव्यांची तथ्यता तपासण्यासाठी मागवला जातो. खरतर यातलं संभाषण ऐकलं तर समजतंच आहे की हा लोकशाहीचा खुन आणि बलात्कारच आहे ! म्हणजे जे बोललं आहे ते गंभीर आहे आणि त्याची तपासणी व्हायला पाहिजे हे मुख्यमंत्र्यांना मान्य आहे हे बरं झालं. पुराव्यातील तथ्य तपासाच पण यांत बोललं गेलं आहे याबद्दल तुम्ही जर अनभिज्ञ असाल तर तुमच्या पाठीमागे काय काय सुरु होतं हे पण तपासा. मुख्यमंत्री म्हणाले की ही क्लिप बहुदा २ वर्षांपूर्वीची असावी, ती आत्ताच का आली ? खरतर ही क्लिप बाहेर आली कशी आणि ती आणली कोणी हा पण महत्वाचा प्रश्न आहे. खरतर याच्यात सरकार मधलं नेहमीप्रमाणे शहा काट’शाहाचं’ राजकारणच दिसतंय , आणि हो फॉरेन्सिक अहवाल, त्यातील तांत्रिकता याच्यात महाराष्ट्राला गोल गोल घुमवू नका. महाराष्ट्राला जे कळायचं आहे ते कळलं आहे. ते तुम्हाला मान्य आहे आणि मुख्यमंत्री म्हणून तुम्ही किती निष्पक्ष आहात आणि तुम्ही कारवाई केली आहेत हे महाराष्ट्राला दाखवून द्या. तरंच या फॉरेन्सिकला अर्थ आहे, अन्यथा तुमच्या फायद्यासाठी वाकवलेला फॉरेन्सिक ठरेल.
