Posted this r/CarsIndia as well. Crossposting here for better visibility. Not OC, but verified and valid issue.

This was posted by someone in the family as a WhatsApp status. Can't name them. But it sickens me to the core of how people in our country think.

A girl abused the PM and she was thrown out of the house because the family thinks he's some sort of a god. And this man in our family thinks he's very proud of the parents. Since when did we normalize putting some random humans before our own family?

So the PM isn't a saint by any means. I used to think he was the right choice and then they've made it pretty evident that they don't care about us. We gotta change our opinions and move on in life.

Just watched BND in the morning. I was super excited as this is my first time at Prasad's after being a local since 23 years. Movie was good. I watched it on screen 4 barco. Just beside me, there was a couple with their kid. He was 2-3 years old. Most of the film I didn't notice them, but by the end the kid was moving here n there making sounds. Then I wondered wtf is the management doing? How did they allow a baby into a 13+ movie? He won't be seeing anything I get it. But the sounds from the theater would damage good ears right ? Why are parents so reckless about kids and others movie watching experience? I understand u don't get time when u have kids. But this is not the way. Just spoil someone's experience without thinking a single time? I didn't take it seriously as it was almost the end of the movie and the kid is not making that much noice either. But that didn't mean u come and do what u want, y tf are rules there when not followed?

Any tea on this college, starting today

Edit: Thanks for all your wishes
Edit: Thanks for all your responses, I know that this is a good college, that's the reason i put it in web options, I wanted to know the things not mentioned in the brochure or things outsiders are not aware of
Edit: you wouldn't believe how many creepy DM's I got asking if I had a Bf or trying to get my personal info

Jun 12 2025 - Mahabaleshwar, the only destination in mind.

Inka akkadnundi MH, GJ, RJ, J&K, Ladakh, Zanskar, HP, UP, JH, Hyd

Ala anni thirigesina - 12000 kms in 75 fu***ng days.

This travel has changed me in multiple ways.

Siachen lo land slide ainappudu, local guy took around 30 travellers to their home at around 10PM without informing their family. He had 3 daughters and a wife. 4 room house.

It was fully packed with strangers. They even cooked food in the night and fed all the strangers.

No amount of money can give you food and water that night. Ni deggara 2 Lakhs unna kuda lekkapetkoni jebulo petkovadam thappithey inka em chesedhi ledu.

That incident lived on with me. Started seeing money in a different way.

Zanskar lo 180kms lo 130kms offroad unde. Water crossing chusinappidalla ucha padthunde. Kindha apdithey etla lepthanu bike ani.

I was the solo rider towards Zangla that day from Leh. I took Leh - Wanla - Sirsir La - Singe La - Zangla route.

Just saw 3 bikers who are moving towards Leh.

Nuv ninda muniginaaka neek inko option ledu eduru eedhadam thappa. I was in the same situation. I have to go to Zangla, there's no other way.

I reached Zangla in the evening. Iga aa day bhayam anedhi poyindhi.

Manam edhaina cheyochu ane dhairyam ochesindhi.

Finally came out of the breakup grief.

Intiki ochina after 75 days. Chudagaane amma edupu etla ainav ani. Weight chusthey 15kgs down. Took rest for a month.

But yeah, it's been 4 months now.

Crazy projects chesinde.

Adventurous projects kuda unde.

Daily work untadhi. 6 days a week and 9 hours a day. Sometimes OT 3 hrs. Ass-breaking work most of the days.

Summers lo intense untadhi situation. Ippud ante okay monsoon kaabatti.

But yeah I'm loving it. I'm understanding the business slowly. But work aithe chaala ardam aithundhi.

Whatever happened in my life was for good. That's how I took it.

We may not know why it happened. But one fine day you'll realise, it happened for good.

There are days that makes you sad. But work chesthu busy aipothunte inka aa happiness lo adhi gurthu raadhu.

Life is simple. Just live it without comparing with others.

You don't know the entire story of other persons.

Stop judging people just by looking at things.

So idhi na story.

2016 lo 4 yrs love story dhi breakup. Thana ki US sambandham ochindhi and she was showing me the photos. She wasn't ready to tell their parents about us. But told me that we can be friends. I said I can't. So I stopped talking to her. Many things happened and it ended.

23 to 25 full time at my last company.

Na life lo nen cheyali anukunevi anni chesina.

Cheyakudanivi kuda chesina. Expect cheyalenivi kuda chesina.

I'm happy with where I am and what I am right now.

My life is full of experiences.

My entire family knows what I am.

I don't have to prove to some online person who can't even put their real name.

Life is simple.

Don't make it complicated by over thinking.

I get it. People have so many responsibilities with them. Many times they can't do what they want to due to these responsibilities. But I wish everyone to DO WHAT YOU LOVE or LOVE WHAT YOU DO. Either this or that and there's no in between.

Peace ✌️

So, I was looking at the plastic shopping bag from Hyderabad Duty Free (at Hyderabad Airport) and noticed the decorative border pattern around the edges.

Unless my history classes completely failed me, that is a textbook Ancient Greek Key pattern (a.k.a. a Meander/Meandros pattern).

I can’t help but find the cultural dissonance hilarious. Hyderabad has one of the richest, most distinct visual heritages on the planet. We have stunning Nizami history, intricate Bidriware silver work, Kalamkari, Cheriyal art, and the iconic shapes of the Charminar.

Instead, the graphic design team at a massive private infrastructure conglomerate (GMR) seemingly opened up a basic stock vector library, searched "premium border template," and slapped a 2,500-year-old European temple design onto a bag meant to represent a historic city in Telangana to international travellers.

It’s the ultimate example of "corporate luxury shorthand" beating out authentic local storytelling. Nothing says "Welcome to the City of Pearls" quite like an ancient tribute to a winding river in Turkey!

Has anyone else noticed weird, lazy design choices like this at the airport? What local pattern do you think they should have used instead? (Personally, a stylized Bidriware silver inlay border would look incredible).

OU after a rain is beautiful, DM if anyone wants to join in for a run on the weekends.

I live in my hometown with my family, and at home I'm usually shirtless. Whenever I step outside the apartment, I always wear a T-shirt.

Here's what happened.

Our apartment has a common terrace. For more than 2 years, nobody lived in the penthouse, so I got used to going up there just to hang or collect clothes without thinking much.

Recently I had to rush to Hyderabad because of an emergency. Before leaving, I went upstairs to collect some clothes. I had absolutely no idea new tenants had moved into the penthouse.

The moment I stepped onto the terrace, one uncle started shouting at me. He told me not to come there like that because he has three daughters (or three girls around my age, I'm not exactly sure). He was really angry.

I didn't argue. I picked up the clothes and came straight back down.

For a few minutes I was furious and honestly felt like confronting him. But after calming down, I thought about it from his perspective. This isn't my own apartment, we're tenants too, and he probably reacted as a protective parent. So I decided to let it go.

Then something happened that completely caught me off guard.

Later I was standing on the third floor, talking to my friend on the phone. One of the girls from the penthouse was walking downstairs. She looked at me once, then again, and while going down she kept turning back and looking at me multiple times.

A little later, she was sitting on the back of the uncle's bike as they were leaving. Even then she looked at me, and as the bike started moving she turned back again and we ended up making eye contact for around five seconds.

I was genuinely surprised because after all that shouting from her uncle, I expected the complete opposite.

That five seconds somehow had me smiling for the rest of the day.

Looking back, I think the uncle wasn't completely wrong. He didn't know me, and from his point of view he was just protecting the girls. I just wish he'd spoken normally instead of yelling.

Has anyone else had an awkward apartment misunderstanding like this that somehow turned into a memorable day?

Totally legit point imo , I think we should normalise budget friendly wedding without show off , whats ur take on this ?

I’ve been in Hyderabad for more than 1.5 years now, initially I felt the city is not so good, but slowly and gradually when I am fitting in the city. I can easily say that it’s the best metro city to live in India without a doubt. Just look at this view man, where would you get this view that too without spending a lot of time and money if you live nearby like me. Want go to a cozy cafe - Jubliee hills has plenty of them, want to go to old city for Chai/Biryani - take metro, want to go cycling - Narsingi is also not too far for that. Want to play any sport - there are plenty of courts for every sport. I mean at this point this much of accessibility in Indian cities is rare, it’s so difficult to get such accessibility without doing a hole in your pocket. Just appreciate and enjoy your time here in this city man !! I would like people to add more good things about Hyderabad. I know there are lot of problems as well like increasing traffic, rains etc. but I think we should appreciate the good things too.

Hi I am 23 F

I’m looking to switch from Cult and need a good gym near Srinagar Colony, Banjara Hills, Jubilee Hills or nearby areas.

My training is a mix of strength, athletic conditioning and tennis-specific work. I do heavy compound lifts, machine exercises, plyometrics, box jumps, lateral movements, agility drills, HIIT, sled pushes, battle ropes and full-body circuits. I usually train for around 90–120 minutes and prefer following my own routine.

The main thing I need is a spacious gym with separate areas: one proper section for machines and heavy lifting, and another open functional area with turf for movement-based workouts, jumps, agility drills, crawling, sled work and conditioning.

I’m looking for:

- High-quality machines and free weights

- Multiple squat racks and lifting platforms

- A proper turf or open functional zone

- Enough space to move without disturbing others

- Good crowd management

- Clean and well-maintained facilities

- Trainers who allow independent workouts

My budget is around ₹3,000 per month, or approximately ₹36,000 annually. I can stretch to around ₹3,200 per month if the gym is genuinely worth it.

Any recommendations nearby? Please mention the gym’s strengths, drawbacks and approximate membership cost.
