Almost every woman dreams of becoming a mother but no woman wants to become mother of a disabled kid because seeing their kid in pain and leading a difficult life is the biggest grief that a woman can go through.

In a historic decision, a London court has awarded a 20 years old girl named Evie Toombes with the right to a huge compensation which will run in millions as it covers the lifelong expenses which will incur in her treatment.

Evie sued her mother’s doctor as she claimed that she would never have been born if the doctor had given correct advice to his mother and this case has been named as wrongful conception case. Evie Toombes who is a para-showjumping star suffers from a condition called spina bifida as per which there is a gap in the spine as it doesn’t get developed in the womb and sometimes she has to spend 24 hours a day connected with tubes.

Evie took her mother’s doctor Dr. Philip Mitchell to court because she claimed that if the doctor had told her mother Caroline to have folic acid in order to reduce the chances of her baby suffering from spina bifida, her mother would have deferred her pregnancy which means Evie would not have born and she would not have to suffer lifelong.

However, Dr. Philip Mitchell denied any liability and stated that he gave reasonable advice to Evie Toombes’ mother. Caroline told the court that the doctor told her that if she had taken good diet earlier, she didn’t need to take folic acid.

Judge Rosalind Coe QC gave the ruling in the favor of Evie Toombes as she stated that in the light of circumstantial evidences, she found that Caroline was not pregnant at the time of consultation with Dr. Philip Mitchell and he didn’t advise her to take folic acid before conceiving and for the first 12 weeks of the pregnancy.

Judge Rosalind added that if the doctor had given the correct advise, Caroline must have opted for getting pregnant later which must have resulted in a normal and healthy child. Judge Rosalind therefore gave the decision in the favor of Evie Toombes who has made a career in showjumping despite suffering from this condition and she competes not just against disabled but also against abled riders.

This is certainly a landmark judgment! What do you say?

Many times we have heard that if you want to be rich, you need to work hard but if you are very lucky, sometimes you just need to buy a lottery ticket to get rich. Something of this sort happened with 49 years old Scotty Thomas who is from Fayetteville, North Carolina, he bought two identical lottery tickets and luck favored him to such a great extent that he won the jackpot for both.

Scotty Thomas stated while talking to the officials of North Carolina Education Lottery that he didn’t even remember he had already bought one ticket of “Lucky for Life” lottery for the draw which would take place on November 27. He further added that he was watching basketball game on television while lying on bed and was not able to remember whether he filled it or not so he filled it again and next morning his son asked him why there were two separate amounts listed and then he realized that he filled it twice.

On Monday, Scotty Thomas went to collect his prize money and he had to make some really tough decisions. Scotty won two $25000 a year for life prizes and he had the option of either taking $50000 a year for life or he could take one $25000 a year for life and lump sum payment for another or he could take lump sum payments of $390000 (Rs. 2.93 crore) each.

Scotty Thomas chose to take lump sum payments for both the prizes which come to $780000 (Rs. 5.86 crore) as he wanted to invest some money in his business, help his family, pay the bills and also buy a house.

The first prize of Lucky for Life is $1000 a day for life and the second biggest prize is $25000 a year for life. When will I get so lucky to win any lottery?

Breakups in love relationships can really make a person do things which are not just illogical but ridiculous as well. While there are many who soak themselves in liquor or any other intoxication in order to forget their lover, some are not able to believe that they have been dumped by their partner and they try their best to get their partner back in their lives.

One such woman goes on to the extent of organizing fake wedding and photoshoot so that her ex texts her and comes back to her. Yes, you read it right and this hard-to-believe task was done by a TikTok user @dieschakin who left no stone unturned in making her fake wedding look genuine as she dressed up as a bride, wore a beautiful white gown, hired professionals for make-up and photoshoot. If this was not enough, a horse was also arranged and she even convinced a handsome hunk to act as her groom.

There is no denying the fact that if she had not revealed that the wedding was fake, nobody could have found out the reality. However, all the efforts went in vain as it had no effect on her ex and leave aside calling her, he didn’t even text the woman.

Disappointed with the result, the TikTok user made the revelation by posting the video with caption, “Remembering the time I faked my own wedding and had a professional photoshoot so he would reach out”.

Here is the video:

While some laughed at her act, there were many who sympathized with her for being so madly in love with her ex.

We have also seen some cases in which a person has tried his best to take revenge on their ex as they were not able to cope up with the feeling of getting ditched for another person. One such case occurred in July when a Chinese woman took her ex-boyfriend’s car on rent and committed 50 traffic violations intentionally. However, the police investigated the case and arrested the woman as well as the person who helped her in committing the crime.

Do you also know about someone who did something like this to get back their ex? Share with us.

Kriti Sanon is one of the most successful Bollywood actresses of the present times as she has given some back to back hits of late. Her last release was “Mimi” and people not just liked the movie but Kriti’s acting was also praised a lot by audiences as well as critics. For the flick, Kriti gained 15 kg weight as she needed to look like a pregnant woman and later on, she underwent weight loss regime to get back in shape for other roles.

Recently during an interview with a leading daily, Kriti Sanon was asked whether she can be called female Aamir Khan because he also did something similar for his movie “Dangal”. If you remember, Aamir Khan also increased his weight from 68 kg to 95 kg for the film and later on, he also shed kilos for playing other roles.

In response, Kriti asks the interviewer not to put so much pressure on her as it is almost impossible to even touch the standards which have been set by Aamir Khan.

She further says that when an actor works so passionately on a character and viewers not only appreciate the efforts but also like the work, it really gives immense satisfaction to the actor.

Few months ago, Kriti Sanon posted a workout video on her official Instagram handle in which she wrote that while gaining 15 kgs was a huge challenge for her, losing it is also not easy either for Chubby Sanon. She also revealed that she decided to shoot for “Param Sundari” track later in order to get motivated to lose weight quickly.

The “Luka Chuppi” actress also added that it was the first time that she gained so much weight and abstained from workout, even yoga, for almost 3 months. Kriti Sanon adds that her stamina, flexibility and strength have gone down to zero in the last 3 months and her joints are clicking constantly as she is trying to get some mobility.

Kriti is one of the most sought actresses of the Hindi film industry and she has some big projects lined up such as “Adipurush”, “Bachchan Pandey”, “Hum Do Hamare Do”, “Bhediya”, etc.

Well, Kriti deserves all the applauds for all the hard work and dedication that she has put in her work and we wish her luck for all her future endeavours!

There are many things that we in India do well, fabulous even. We have great food (so great that a version of Indian food is Britains national dish), we have outstanding movies, extraordinarily talented scientists and business people and we have not even started talking about cricket…yet.

But, if there is one area that we remain head and shoulders above our global counterparts it is this: the Indian wedding.

Indian weddings have evolved from a place that was already big, brash and over the top – to Bollywood quality productions featuring flash mobs, choreographed dance routines and gorgeous locations in some of the countries most spectacular places. (Or abroad for that matter).

Now, remember, you so don’t have to spend millions to have the wedding of your dreams so don’t fret if you’re not in that league, or more importantly – if you have more sense than money.

We compiled this list to help you get inspired, not to emulate because every smart person knows that the best weddings are the weddings where the most important guest at the table – is love.

BEFORE WE START

From hiring palaces to chartering private planes to exotic foreign destinations, no one does superstar weddings, quite as we Indians do. This has led to a stratospheric rise in party and wedding planners vying for those lucrative contracts. Don’t be put off by snooty function coordinators that seem to want to belittle or “snob off” your plans or your budget, rather find a top wedding planner that works for you. We want you to have a day that you’ll always remember, as opposed to one that you’ll never forget – for all the wrong reasons.

After all, unless you are in that bracket where money flows like water, imagine what you could have done with all of the money spent on a day that is as fleeting as time itself.
But, with all of that being said – let’s get started. Here now, we present the top 5 weddings in India, as of December 2021.

LALIT TANWAR AND YOGITA JAUNAPURIA

The year was 2011 and while the United Kingdom was abuzz with a pending Royal wedding, India presented a wedding that was, at the time, the most expensive ever seen.

15 000 guests were waited on by 1000 staff, serving delicacies from across India and the globe. Bollywood star Neha Dupia performed live at the wedding and the groom was gifted a silver model of a private jet as a gift (because the real one had to be left at Delhi airport). Oh, and that was to complement that Bell helicopter he received as a gift as well.
The wedding was not without controversy, as it took place at a time where Indian businessmen were urged to show austerity during a very difficult period for the country. But hey, when money is no object, the sky is the limit.

Read more, here. The final bill? Around $19 Million.

VANISHA MITTAL AND AMIT BHATIA

It was in June of 2004 that Vanisha Mittal (daughter of the Indian steel magnate Lakshmi Mittal) would marry Amit Bhatia in a week-long celebration. Over 1000 guests started the event with silver-casted invitations and the costs of their travels were covered as well. Jet rides whisked guests to a 5-star hotel that covered multiple parties, lavish dinners and star-studded events at the Palace of Versailles and Jardin des Tuileries.
Kylie Minogue was paid around $ 330 000 to perform for 30 minutes and guests were also treated to fireworks in the Eiffel tower gardens.

You too can start your life of wedded bliss in this manner, whip out that cheque book and write one for around $ 60 Million.

BRAHMANI AND RAJEEV REDDY

Cut to 2011 and the wedding of the year that made it into the record books, was the wedding of Brahmani and Rajeev Reddy. Brahmani the only daughter of Gali Janardhan Reddy a politician and mining Baron, married Rajiv Reddy, the son of the Hyderabad-based businessman, Vikram Deva Reddy.

Taking place in the Bengaluru Palace Grounds on November 16th, the venue was totally transformed to resemble the ruins of Hampi – the once great capital of the Vijaynagar Empire.
LCD screens played choreographed songs starring the family as guests entered the lavish venue, which also held a silver Ganesha idol. Around 50,000 guests that included politicians, celebrities and movies stars enjoyed fine dining on exquisite china, outlandish gifts and a bride adorned in over a million dollars worth of diamond jewellery.

Yours, for just $60 Million.

SUSHANTO ROY AND SEEMANTO ROY

In 2004, Subrato Roy the chairman of Sahara India Pariwar conducted the marriage of his sons Suhanto Roy and Seemanto Roy at the Sahar Auditorium based in Lucknow. The wedding welcomed 11 000 guests dining on 110 different kinds of cuisine. Guests were flown to the wedding in private planes and the guest list included Ashwariya Ria and several Bollywood big hitters.
What earns our respect though, is that 150 000 beggars were also served at this wedding.
Yours for a mere, $75 Million.

TIME FOR A QUICK BREAK
Just before we get the #1 wedding in Indian of all time, we want to take the opportunity to check in with you, intrepid reader, and remind you that while it may sound exciting to indulge in big wedding spending, come on – we all know that that kind of ostentatious display isn’t what the day is meant to be about.

Take a look at this wedding by a lawyer couple from Guwahati that took their wedding in an innovative direction, by “constitutionally theming” the wedding. Twitter went mad and within moments their wedding was trending on all feeds in India (and beyond).

Contracting a wedding planner can help you keep costs down and get you the best value for your money, while not skimping on style! Try to remember that your guests are there to celebrate you and your day – not be the celebration itself.
Silver-casted invitations are not necessary or required, check out these foil wedding invitations, and put the saved money towards a fabulous honeymoon or downpayment on a home instead. So, here it is. The #1 top and most expensive wedding in India:

ISHA AMBANI AND ANAND PIRAMAL

As the only daughter of India’s richest industrialist, Mukesh Ambani, Isha’s wedding was never going to be a quiet, demure affair.  She married Piramal Scion after a pre-wedding party in the city of lakes.

The engagement took place on the banks of Italy’s Lake Como and turns out that the party in Udaipur was just a teaser because the actual wedding happened at the Ambani’s 27-story home, affectionately known as Antilia. The reception was held at the Jio Gardens in Mumbai.

They spent a staggering $4000 on the wedding invitations (that’s each), and the wedding was attended by US First Lady Hillary Clinton and businessman Henry Travis.

Performances by Beyonce, Nick Jonas, and Priyanka Chopra helped add to the final account, and as a token of appreciation, the Ambanis also donated a staggering amount of food to the city of Udaipur, enough to feed 5,100 people for four days.
More than 100 flights were chartered specifically to get guests from various events to ornately designed pop-up musical invitations that paid tribute to the bride and groom’s grandparents.

Oh, and just for kicks – guests had to download a specially designed “app” to guide them to all the events and advise on seating etc.

Yours for just $100 Million.
So there you have it. The top five most expensive weddings in India. Now, here’s the trick to enjoying a superstar wedding at a fraction of the price:
Find the elements of these weddings that you like the most, then match those events with locally inspired flavour, venues, cuisine and fashion and you’re in it to win it. You’ll be amazed at how far your money can take you with some proper planning and saving.

You can also use your wedding to make a difference in your local community, as inspired by some of the illustrious entries above. Is there a better legacy to your nuptials than having changed the fate of your community, if only for a day – you have no idea what repercussions that might inspire in the future?
More and more young Indians are becoming increasingly conscious of the importance of playing a fierce role in their local communities and your wedding day could be the catalyst for that. It all starts with a plan.

Draw some inspiration from your friends and family who’ve had awesome weddings, keep the best parts and evolve the designs to suit your theme and image. Infuse your personality into everything from the invitations to the fashion, and don’t worry if you can’t afford Hrithik Roshan – your brother is every good a dancer as Hritik.

However you chose to celebrate your special day, we hope it’s going to be a day to remember and the start of your best-lived lives. Your greatest adventure starts here.

The South Asian mothers have a different way of treating their kids in comparison to the mothers of Western countries. While the Western mothers avoid hitting their children, the south Asian mothers leave no chance of beating their kids, of course with affection, whether it is needed or not.

A video is going viral on the Internet in which a South Asian mother is expressing her love for her son by beating him with slippers. This video has been posted by Anwar Jibawi, a Palestinian-Pakistani Internet celebrity, on his Instagram account in which he is seen at the airport to receive his mother with flowers and a placard which reads, “We missed you”.

As the video starts, Anwar is seen walking towards the arrival gate of the airport with flowers and placard, the moment his mother exits from the airport, she takes out her slippers and starts beating Anwar badly and as he tries to save himself, the flowers and the placard get dropped on the floor.

Anwar posted the video with the caption, “My mom is back”.

Director Aanand L Rai is all set for his next movie “Atrangi Re” which is going to release on December 24 on Disney + Hotstar and stars Sara Ali Khan, Dhanush and Akshay Kumar in important roles. Many south Indian actresses have tried their luck in Bollywood and have tasted success but when it comes to actors, not many have succeeded.

However, Dhanush is one of those few actors who have not done much work in Bollywood and still he is very popular among the north Indian audiences.

Dhanush made his Bollywood debut in 2013 with “Raanjhanaa” which was directed by Aanand L Rai and also starred Sonam Kapoor and Abhay Deol among others. Talking about roping in a south Indian actor in his movie, Aanand L Rai stated he did it because of the story and not because of any strategy.

During an interview, he said that at the time of “Raanjhanaa”, he told himself not to hesitate while approaching the talented actors from south because this is his country and these are his own people.

Aanand L Rai also puts forth a question that when Bollywood moviemakers can take the scripts from south and remake movies, why they can’t take the actors in their movies. He concluded by saying that if Pritam is his, so is A R Rahman and the same stands for Dhanush and Akshay Kumar.

Nowadays, many filmmakers are trying to bridge the gap between north and south by signing south Indian actors in their movies and web series. Some time back, the famous south Indian actress Samantha Ruth Prabhu was seen in The Family Man 2 which starred Manoj Bajpayee and another south Indian actress Priyamani in important roles.
