Kangana Ranaut says women of her house were barred from going to hospital; mother threw her toys away when she didn't have periods on time
Kangana Ranaut hails from a small town in the Mandi district of Himachal Pradesh. She is the second child in her family, with her elder sister Rangoli and their younger brother. However, in a recent interview, the actress revealed that before Rangoli, her parents had a son named Hero, who tragically passed away just 10 days after birth. The family believed it was due to the negligence of the hospital authorities, and after that incident, women in her family were barred from delivering in hospitals. In a conversation with Hauterrfly, Kangana shared, 'My mother's firstborn was a baby boy who didn't survive. He passed away just 10 days after his birth. My father had named him Hero, so losing him was an extremely painful experience for them. He was born in a hospital, weighed 3.5 kilos, and had no medical complications. My mother believes it was the carelessness of the hospital staff that killed her son, as they cut his umbilical cord incorrectly. After that, my grandmother took over and declared that none of us would be born in a hospital. After this incident, my mother conceived three more times and my aunt twice, and all of us were born in the same house, in the same room. Hospitals were banned for us.'

'Now, my parents feel embarrassed about these things, but back then, within the family, girls were often demeaned and mocked. They would comment things like, 'Isko yeh nahi sikhaya, isko andar rakho warna badi ladki ki shaadi nahi hone degi (You haven't taught her anything, keep her inside otherwise it will affect the elder daughter's marriage prospects).' These remarks affected my bond with my siblings and often made me feel isolated.' Kangana went on to recall another painful memory from her adolescence, when her delayed periods led her mother to throw away her dollhouse. 'All my friends got their periods between classes 6 and 9, and I was still waiting. This worried my mother. At the time, I was obsessed with my dollhouse. One day, my mom got extremely angry: 'Already her period is delayed, and she is still obsessed with her dolls.' She threw them away, thinking they were the reason for the delay. Then one day, I woke up and everything around me had blood on it. I was horrified, while my mother was happy that I had finally started menstruating.'

Archana Puran Singh's son responds to criticism over proposal to Yogita Bihani: ‘Your opinions are valid'
When Archana Puran Singh's son, Aaryamann Sethi, launched his YouTube channel Aary Vlogs, he kicked it off with a 30-day challenge to promote his song 'Madhubala'. During this period, he also made his relationship with The Kerala Story actor Yogita Bihani public. After completing the challenge, Aaryamann proposed to Yogita and later shared the vlog of his proposal, followed by another video in which Archana Puran Singh was seen giving her own ring to the actor. The videos drew mixed reactions online. While many fans celebrated the couple, others criticized them, with some labelling Yogita 'greedy'. Comments such as, 'I know as a woman this is not good, but she doesn't seem like a woman in love… feels greedy,' and 'As a true well-wisher, I think everything is going too fast. Please think carefully before making big decisions and giving away valuable things to someone. I don't know why, but I'm not getting good vibes from Yogita,' surfaced on the posts.

Aaryamann said, 'I saw so many comments recently. A lot of them were very nice, but some had negative things to say. I kept thinking about it, even discussed it with my parents, and asked, 'Why is this happening?' I meditated and reflected for a while, and eventually concluded that all of you care a lot about me.' He added, 'Even the comments criticising me come from a place of concern. I really appreciate all of you for caring so much. Thank you for showing love to my family and Yogita. You've given constructive criticism. Honestly, I may or may not act on it, but all of your opinions are valid.'

Himachal's First Eco-Friendly and Zero-Waste State-Level Tribal Festival 2025 Marks Historic Success in Keylong
NewsVoir Keylong/ Lahaul & Spiti (Himachal Pradesh) [India], August 18: Lahaul & Spiti witnessed history being made with the successful conclusion of the State-Level Tribal Festival 2025, held from 14th to 16th August at the Police Ground, Keylong. Organised by the District Administration of Lahaul & Spiti, the three-day event marked Himachal Pradesh's first-ever eco-friendly and zero-waste festival, setting a new benchmark for cultural, environmental, and community-led celebrations in the state. The festival's opening was graced by Hon'ble Chief Minister of Himachal Pradesh, Shri Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu, who virtually inaugurated and laid the foundation stone of development projects worth Rs. 36 crore for the Lahaul region. The festival drew large crowds from across the valley, including residents from remote villages, tourists, and cultural enthusiasts. The event promoted tribal tourism, fostered community integration, and brought livelihood opportunities through local product sales and homestay participation. Over 790 homestays and 70 hotels in the region supported the influx of attendees. Addressing the gathering through a digital platform, the Chief Minister stated, "Lahaul is not only a land of unmatched beauty and cultural depth, but also a symbol of how sustainable development and heritage preservation can go hand-in-hand. The eco-friendly Tribal Festival 2025 is a shining example of a forward-looking, environmentally conscious Himachal Pradesh." The festival witnessed the presence of several eminent dignitaries, including Shri Rajesh Dharmani, Hon'ble Minister for Urban Development, Housing & Technical Education, who attended as the Chief Guest, and Ms. Anuradha Rana, MLA from Lahaul-Spiti. The festival was spearheaded by Ms. Kiran Bhadana (IAS), Deputy Commissioner, Lahaul & Spiti and Chairperson of the Tribal Festival Committee, whose pioneering vision transformed the event into a platform for both cultural pride and environmental responsibility. "This festival reflects the soul of Lahaul - its tribal roots, its vibrant culture, and its progressive spirit. Our aim was not just to celebrate, but to do so with mindfulness and inclusivity, ensuring every local, visitor, and stakeholder felt a part of this journey," said Ms. Bhadana. The event also drew planning support and participation from Ms. Veena Devi, Zila Parishad Chairperson; Ms. Akanksha Sharma, SDM Keylong; Ms. Kalyani Tiwana, Assistant Commissioner; Ms. Rashmi Sharma, DSP Keylong; along with Panchayati Raj representatives, state leaders, and other distinguished local dignitaries. What set this festival apart was its eco-conscious execution. With a complete ban on single-use plastic, use of biodegradable utensils, refillable water stations, and waste segregation by Swachhata volunteers, the festival became a model of zero-waste celebrations in the state. The initiative received praise from leaders and participants alike, setting the stage for future green festivals across Himachal. The celebrations opened with a colourful Shobha Yatra, reflecting the tribal unity and devotion of Lahaul & Spiti. The 79th District-Level Independence Day was also marked during the festival, with patriotic parades by Himachal Police, Home Guards, BRO, and students, alongside heartfelt cultural performances. Evenings turned into vibrant cultural spectacles with performances by renowned artists, including Da Shugs Band from Ladakh, folk singer Faisal Ashoor, Rosy Sharma, and Firdaus Band. Traditional dances like Jabro and Chabskyan enthralled audiences, while pageants such as Mr. & Ms. Lahaul-Spiti, Tribal Queen, Tribal King, and Grihalakshmi celebrated beauty, tradition, and empowerment. Sports were another highlight, ranging from cricket, badminton, and volleyball to traditional contests like matka fod and tug of war, where even Deputy Commissioner Ms. Kiran Bhadana joined participants, underscoring her grassroots leadership. Ahead of the main event, from August 2 to 13, the District Administration organised a series of community-centric initiatives. Yoga sessions, plantation drives, cleanliness campaigns, poetry and painting competitions, as well as traditional sports and knitting contests, fostered inclusive participation and anticipation throughout the valley. Over a dozen departments and organisations showcased services and schemes through exhibitions. The Health Department conducted free health check-ups for nearly 200 visitors, while departments like AYUSH highlighted key government schemes and community initiatives. SHGs and Tribes India promoted handicrafts, local produce, and traditional cuisines, boosting rural entrepreneurship and livelihoods. The Tribal Festival 2025 will be remembered as a landmark event celebrating the heritage, unity, and ecological consciousness of Himachal's tribal communities. With strong leadership, inclusive participation, and a vision rooted in tradition and sustainability, the festival has reinforced Lahaul & Spiti's position as a cultural and ecological beacon of Himachal Pradesh.
