Khushi Bharadwaj on playing a teen on the autism spectrum in Criminal Justice 4: It made me more aware of how overwhelming the world can feel
Khushi Bharadwaj
, known for her roles in Baalveer Returns, Tiku Weds Sheru, 36 Days, Gyarah Gyarah, and IC 814, is receiving positive feedback for her performance in
Criminal Justice: A Family Matter
. In the show, she portrays Ira, a teenager on the autism spectrum.
Reflecting on the preparation that went into the role, the 17-year-old shares, 'Bringing Ira to life was quite a process. I spent around two weeks doing four-hour workshops every day to understand her world better. My acting coach, Sandeep Ghosh sir, was instrumental in helping me shape the character. I remember being really nervous during the first scene — I wasn't sure if I was getting it right. But gradually, I settled into the role. Playing Ira made me realise how overwhelming and confusing the world can sometimes feel for someone on the spectrum. It gave me a deeper sense of empathy and respect for their lived experience.'

Despite the demanding shoot, Khushi was also balancing her 10th-grade board exams. Asked how she managed academics alongside a complex role, she admits, 'It wasn't easy. I'd study during breaks on set and made sure to cover extra ground before shooting began. But I believe that when you truly care about both things — acting and studying — you find a way to make it work.'

Optical illusion: Only a person who loves animals can spot the hidden snake in just 10 seconds
A challenging optical illusion is testing animal lovers' observation skills. A photograph taken in the wild features a cleverly hidden snake, believed to be a pit viper or copperhead, blending seamlessly into its surroundings. Are you someone who has a soft spot for animals? A true animal lover with a sharp eye for nature's hidden details? Then here's a challenge that might just test your love and observation skills at the same time! This isn't one of those cute 'spot the difference' puzzles or emoji grids. No, this one's real. We're talking about an actual photograph, clicked in raw, wild nature, and somewhere in this image, a snake is hiding in plain sight. Not cartoonish, not highlighted, and definitely not easy to find. This optical illusion was shared under 'Find the Sniper' subreddit. The star of this optical illusion is a snake, believed to be a pit viper, possibly even a copperhead, but that's still up for debate. What makes this challenge next-level difficult is that the snake isn't slithering in the open. It's completely blending into the scene with such perfection that it almost disappears. It's nature's way of pulling off a Photoshop-level disguise without any filters. Image credit: 'Find the Sniper' subreddit The photo features a simple setup: a pipe, a window, and a few mechanical devices. But somewhere within this, the snake is lying still, completely undetectable unless someone really zooms in, both with the eyes and the brain. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Adam Lambert, 43, Takes off His Makeup and Leaves Us Without Words The Noodle Box Undo Here's where the fun begins. People around the internet are racing against the clock to spot the snake in just 10 seconds. Some sharp-eyed folks, especially animal lovers who are naturally tuned in to animal patterns and movement, claim they found it quickly. Others? Let's just say they kept staring for minutes, growing more frustrated with every second. Why 10 seconds? Because that's about how long it would take for someone who truly connects with the animal kingdom to sense the odd shape, the unique texture, or the unexpected curve in the scene. But it's not easy, the snake's black body is blending in almost too perfectly. Alright, if you're still reading and haven't spotted it yet, here's a clue to help. Focus your attention on the black pipe under the window. Notice how it runs between two mechanical-looking boxes? Somewhere in that section, there's something that's not quite 'pipe.' The snake is lying alongside it, almost exactly the same shade, black on black. That's what makes it so tricky. Your eyes might skip right over it, thinking it's part of the equipment. But it's not. Look again. Now you might wonder, why would an animal lover be more likely to spot it quickly? It's all about instinct and experience. Those who spend time with animals, whether in the wild or at home, tend to develop an eye for movement, texture, and subtle patterns in nature. They notice what others miss. That little curve that doesn't belong. That faint line that breaks the symmetry. That's what gives them an advantage in illusions like these.

Hong gave careful thought to when and how to disclose such private information before deciding to go public. An insider disclosed that the YouTube recording occurred three to four days earlier and that the agency was notified about the divorce approximately a month ago. It was determined that her channel would be the best platform because the two are close friends and reliable coworkers. During the discussion, Hong disclosed that her ex-mom-in-law had requested that she wait to share the news until their daughter was older. Rael is now fifteen years old. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Treatment That Might Help You Against Knee Pain Knee pain| search ads Find Now Undo Hong and her ex-husband are still friendly even after their split.
