Sonakshi Sinha slams Supreme Court's order to remove stray dogs: ‘Everyday we expose how soul-less we have become'
Sonakshi Sinha reacts
On Tuesday, Sonakshi took to Instagram Stories to react to the order, which has sparked heated debate and protests, with people raising slogans against the Supreme Court directive and calling for its reversal.
To share her views, Sonakshi reposted a note on her Stories which read, 'Street dogs are not a problem. They are victims. Victims of fear, hunger, disease, neglect, cruelty, and abandonment. They live without shelter, without vaccination, without sterilization, left behind to give birth on the streets, only to watch their puppies suffer the same fate.
"Many die under speeding wheels or at the hands of cruelty. They ask for nothing but compassion, and to live without harm. Yet people sell them, dump them, and now even plan to uproot them from the only place they know, sending them to overcrowded shelters where they will lose their freedom and identity. This is not animal welfare. Spaying and vaccinating street dogs is the real, humane solution,' added the note.
Reposting the note, Sonakshi shared, 'Day by day we expose how soul-less we have become as a society. Every day is a disappointment.'

About the SC order on stray dogs
The Supreme Court's sweeping directive to remove all stray dogs from Delhi-NCR streets and place them in shelters within eight weeks has sparked a debate. Several celebrities, including Janhvi Kapoor, Varun Dhawan, Vir Das and Chinmayi, have come forward to condemn the Supreme Court's order through their social media accounts.
On Tuesday, actor and dog dad John Abraham sent an appeal to Hon'ble Chief Justice of India, Justice B. R Gavai, urging a review of the recent Supreme Court direction for the removal of Delhi's community dogs to shelters and faraway places, calling it 'illegal, impractical, and inhumane.'

‘Paris is scam': Indian traveller slams ‘impossible-to-chew bread' and ‘disaster dessert' at her ‘most expensive' Eiffel Tower lunch
Ishwarya, an Indian traveller and one half of the United Kingdom-based Tamil travel vlogging duo 'Make Travel Easy,' left Paris with more than just photos of the Eiffel Tower –– she also carried home a story about a pricey lunch gone wrong. In a candid Instagram post, Ishwarya called it her the 'most expensive' meal in the City of Light, yet one that failed to impress. The bread, she said, was so hard it was nearly impossible to chew, and the starter arrived cold. Her experience wasn't unique, an elderly woman from New Zealand, seated beside her at the Eiffel Tower's second-floor restaurant, voiced the same complaints. A post shared by Make Travel Easy (@_maketraveleasy) When Ishwarya asked the server if they had softer bread, the answer was a flat no. She rated the starter just 2/10, gave the main dish a more forgiving 7/10, and declared the dessert, which she found overly creamy, a disaster at 1/10. 'I will never go here again,' she wrote. A post shared by Make Travel Easy (@_maketraveleasy) In her YouTube video, Ishwarya revealed that her day took an unexpected turn when she ended up helping the New Zealand woman, who struggled to eat, reach a supermarket for biscuits and then walk her back to her hotel. The review sparked debate online. Some commenters felt she simply didn't understand European dining culture. 'European breads are supposed to be hard… there are so many different types of breads,' one person pointed out. Another wrote, 'It must be your first time to eat in Europe. That's a normal bread for Europeans.' Others sided with her frustration. 'Paris is a scam,' wrote one. Another was even harsher: 'French food is actually pretty bad. We've been starving out in New Caledonia. No vege, limited fruit. Rubbish food.'

Delhi High Court: Adults Have Right To Marry Without Family Interference
New Delhi: The Delhi High Court has reaffirmed that the personal liberty of two consenting adults to marry and live together peacefully is protected under Article 21 of the Indian Constitution. In a recent ruling, the court emphasised that family opposition cannot override this autonomy. Justice Sanjeev Narula stated that the Supreme Court has consistently upheld this principle, directing law enforcement to protect couples from threats or coercion. In this case, the court ordered police protection for a young couple who feared harassment from the woman's family. The couple had solemnised their marriage on July 23, 2025, following Hindu rituals at an Arya Samaj trust in Delhi. They approached the court after the woman's parents allegedly tried to pressure her, despite her voluntary departure from her family home and her clear affirmation of the marriage during a police inquiry. That inquiry, initiated after a "missing" complaint, was later closed. To ensure their safety, the court instructed the local Station House Officer (SHO) to assign a beat officer, brief them on the court's directives, and provide the couple with emergency contact numbers. Any reported threats must be documented and addressed without delay. Justice Narula clarified that the court was not ruling on the veracity of the allegations but was solely focused on protecting the couple's fundamental rights to life, liberty, and dignity.

South Korean Supreme Court dismisses US composer's ‘Baby Shark' copyright claim
The courts ruled Wright's version did not differ enough from the original melody to qualify as an original creative work eligible for copyright protection, and that Pinkfong's song had clear differences from Wright's. South Korea's Supreme Court rejected a 30 million won ($21,600) damage claim Thursday by an American composer who accused a South Korean kids content company of plagiarizing his version of 'Baby Shark,' ending a six-year legal battle over the globally popular tune known for its catchy 'doo doo doo doo doo doo' hook. The top court upheld lower court rulings dating back to 2021 and 2023 that found no sufficient grounds to conclude the company, Pinkfong, infringed on Jonathan Wright's copyright. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD Wright, also known as Johnny Only, released his version in 2011, four years before Pinkfong's, but both were based on a traditional melody popular for years at children's summer camps in the United States. The courts ruled Wright's version did not differ enough from the original melody to qualify as an original creative work eligible for copyright protection, and that Pinkfong's song had clear differences from Wright's. The Supreme Court said its ruling reaffirms the established legal principle on existing folk tunes as derivative work. 'The Supreme Court accepts the lower court's finding that the plaintiff's song did not involve substantial modifications to the folk tune related to the case to the extent that it could be regarded, by common social standards, as a separate work,' it said in a statement. Pinkfong said in a statement to The Associated Press that the ruling confirmed its version of 'Baby Shark' was based on a 'traditional singalong chant' that was in the public domain. The company said it gave the tune a fresh twist by adding 'an upbeat rhythm and catchy melody, turning it into the pop culture icon it is today.' Chong Kyong-sok, Wright's South Korean attorney, said he hadn't received the full version of the court's ruling yet, but called the outcome 'a little disappointing.' 'Anyway, the matter is now settled,' he said. 'It's our work that came out first, so we can handle the licensing on our side and I guess we then each go our separate ways.' STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD Pinkfong's Baby Shark became a global phenomenon after it was released on YouTube in 2015, with the original 'Baby Shark Dance' video now exceeding 16 billion views and peaking at No. 32 on the Billboard Hot 100. Baby Shark remains a crucial product for Pinkfong, which earned 45.1 billion won ($32.6 million) in revenue in the first half of 2025, according to its regulatory filing. The company has turned the five-member shark family — Baby Shark, Mama Shark, Papa Shark, Grandma Shark, and Grandpa Shark — into TV and Netflix shows, movies, smartphone apps and globally touring musicals.
