NDTV2 days ago

British YouTuber Miles has gone viral after he revealed his mission to recover his stolen AirPods, which went missing from his Dubai hotel room a year ago. Using Apple's Lost Mode, he tracked the AirPods to Pakistan and vowed to reclaim them. The AirPods, initially missing from his hotel, mysteriously resurfaced in Pakistan, prompting Miles to take action.
On May 29, Lord Miles, a popular YouTuber with over 172,000 subscribers, shared an update on his X account about his stolen AirPods, which he tracked to Jhelum, Pakistan, using Apple's Find My app. The screenshot revealed the AirPods' location near "2nd Wife Restaurant" on Defence Road, with recent activity just 31 minutes prior.
"My AirPod Pros have been lost for a year in Pakistan, and guess who's going to go there next week and get his property back!" he wrote on X, alongside a screenshot showing the current location of his AirPods, somewhere in Pakistan.
"They got stolen from my hotel in Dubai and made their way to Pakistan. I enabled lost mode and keep playing the 'find me' noise when he's using the AirPods. I'm going to get a police officer and storm the area, get back my AirPods and film it all. Don't like thieves," he added further.

Lord Miles now plans to involve local authorities to retrieve his stolen AirPods, intending to film the process for his audience. "I'm going to get a police officer and storm the area, get back my AirPods and film it all. Don't like thieves!" he stated.
The plan sparked a mixed reaction on social media, with some questioning its practicality and potential costs. One user wrote, "Wouldn't it be easier and, I would think, cheaper, to just buy a new pair?"
Another commented, "So you're gonna spend more money on the ticket alone… for AirPods you can just get for 2% of the price question mark."
A third said, "My dude, you're not gonna wanna put those in your ears ever again lol." A fourth added, "Miles, could you imagine the amount of earwax attached to the AirPods. It's not worth it."

Secret library unearthed under palace by collector who heard fables as a kid

1 2 3 Tikamgarh: Hidden beneath the ancient walls of Tal Kothi— a palace, built centuries ago by the Bundela rulers in Tikamgarh district of Madhya Pradesh —lies an astonishing secret: an underground library filled with hundreds of rare volumes and editions. Once relegated to the realms of whispered family legends and childhood dreams, this lost repository of historical texts emerges from myth into reality. Nestled on the banks of Mahendra Sagar Lake, the five-storey marvel, now invites modern explorers to rediscover the silent depths of a bygone era. What began as a childhood memory of Vivek Kshotriya, the newly appointed collector of Tikamgarh, fueled by stories his grandparents told him about a secret collection of rare books stored in underwater rooms beneath the palace, has led to the discovery of nearly 50,000 books, including some of the most priceless historical texts ever produced. Among the remarkable finds is a rare edition of Sketches of Gandhi by Feliks Topolski, a Polish-born British artist and official war artist during World War II. Topolski, during his 1944 visit to India, captured the essence of Gandhi in spontaneous sketches. Besides, the library contains several pre-independence era books on dams in India, princely states, and historical manuscripts, including Anand Vrindavan Champu, written by 16th-century Indian Bengali poet Kavi Karnapura in Sanskrit in 1576 AD. Most of the books have seals of the erstwhile 'Orchha Presidential Library'. Now, with this treasure trove of history at his disposal, Kshotriya has ambitious plans to transform the space into a 'Heritage Library'. Proposals have been sent to both the state and central ministry of culture, seeking funding to preserve and showcase the invaluable collection for future generations. Experts are being called in from various parts of the country to restore books damaged by termites. "The library, once open to the public, could become a major cultural and educational hub, attracting scholars, historians, and visitors from across the globe," says collector Vivek Kshotriya, who has always been fascinated by history. Growing up in the heart of Madhya Pradesh, Vivek often visited his grandparents in the quaint town of Tikamgarh, nestled amidst the rolling hills of the Bundelkhand region. It was during these visits that young Vivek first heard whispers of a mysterious underground library, hidden deep beneath the grand and beautiful palace at the edge of the town. The stories were passed down like folklore—tales of ancient manuscripts, rare books, and forgotten scrolls buried beneath the palace grounds, some even dating back to the days before India's independence. Years later, after much hard work and dedication, Vivek rose through the ranks of the Indian Administrative Service (IAS) and was appointed as the collector of Tikamgarh district. As he stood in the district office on his first day, a flood of memories rushed back to him. He remembered his childhood curiosity, the evenings spent listening to his grandparents recount stories of the old royal family and the sprawling palace that once served as their home. One particular story stood out—the secret library, a treasure trove of historical records and manuscripts, hidden somewhere beneath the royal palace. Vivek decided to dig deeper into this childhood myth. He sought out the district's oldest residents, many of whom had spent their youth in the palace grounds. But when he finally enquired about the underground library, he was met with surprising news. The library, it seemed, was not just a myth. It was real—but it had been sealed off over two decades ago. The palace, popularly known as 'Tal Kothi', had been repurposed as a govt PG Degree College, with the library originally set up for students. According to local reports, one of the former librarians had been suspended for financial misappropriation, and in the aftermath of the alleged scandal, the library was locked up and abandoned. Since then, no one had been allowed access to the collection. Driven by an inexplicable pull to uncover what lay beneath, Kshotriya proposed to open the sealed chambers of the underground library and ordered the unlocking of the long-forgotten doors under his personal supervision. "There were multiple doors. Keys were missing. We had to break open the locks. The moment the heavy wooden door creaked open; I was struck by the eerie silence that enveloped the room. Dust motes floated in the beams of light filtering through cracks in the door. The air smelled of age, of time itself. As I stepped inside, I felt a sense of reverence, as if I had crossed into a different world—a world of forgotten knowledge and untold stories," Vivek recalls. The underground library was a marvel. Rows upon rows of shelves stood, laden with books and manuscripts, many in pristine condition, while others had weathered the ravages of time. Vivek was amazed at how the books had remained intact for all these years, despite the underground rooms being adjacent to the pond, where water levels rise to the library's entrance door during the monsoon season. "Ancient texts in languages long forgotten lay nestled between volumes of historical accounts, scientific treatises, and poetry that seemed to echo the past. Some of the books were bound in leather, others in delicate silk, their pages yellowed with age but still legible in places. I could hardly believe my eyes," he says. As Vivek and his team worked to catalog the books, it became clear that the library held treasures beyond imagination. There were rare first editions of works from British-era historians, treatises on ancient Indian architecture, and manuscripts believed to have been written by prominent royal scholars of the era. The history of Tikamgarh, Madhya Pradesh, and India itself seemed to come alive within those walls. Overwhelmed by the significance of the discovery, Vivek knew the collection could not remain hidden from the public eye. "I deployed security at the library with instructions to prohibit any unauthorized entry until it's properly set up. Many of those books are pieces of history that need to be preserved—treasures of knowledge that could enrich the minds of future generations." And so, Vivek Kshotriya has decided to transform the underground library into a public heritage library—a place that would not only house the massive collection of books but also serve as a living testament to the cultural and historical richness of Tikamgarh. His vision is to open the doors of the library to students of the govt college, scholars from across the country, and tourists eager to discover the hidden gems of India's past.

Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz Hire Lawyer, Get in Touch With Meghan Markle-Prince Harry's Attorneys: Report

Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz have allegedly hired a lawyer amid the ongoing family feud. The rift between the couple and the Beckhams has come to the spotlight after Beckham and his actress wife skipped the former soccer player's 50th birthday celebration. According to the reports by People Magazine, the aspiring chef and Peltz, the couple, got in touch with Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's attorneys. Moreover, an insider claimed that the legal officials have been hired for the duo's reputation management. The couple is reportedly in contact with a British lawyer, Jenny Afia, as revealed by the Daily Mail. Who is Jenny Afia, hired by Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz? In conversation with the media portal, the sources close to Brooklyn and Peltz revealed the details about the Schillings law firm that Afia works for. One of the insiders shared with People Magazine, 'There is absolutely no connection to Meghan and Harry. Schillings is a respected firm with a wide range of clients.' They further added, "Ironically, the inaccurate reporting proves exactly why one hires legal counsel: to set the record straight and combat the spread of deliberate misinformation.' According to the previous reports, the lawyer represented the Duchess of Sussex during the privacy and copyright infringement case against the Mail on Sunday's publishers. As for the case, Afia, with Markle's permission, addressed the controversy revolving around the statement that the Duchess had bullied her staff members after getting married to Prince Harry in 2018.

‘This was one of the first pieces of furniture I got made with my own money': Step inside Radhika Apte's Mumbai home

Radhika Apte may have carved a niche in Indian cinema with her bold, offbeat roles—but step into her Mumbai home, and you'll see a softer, deeply personal side to her. 'I don't come from a filmy background at all,' Radhika shares, setting the tone for a home far from Bollywood bling. 'My father's a neurosurgeon, my mother's an anesthetist. My mother always wanted to be an actor, so it's probably passed on to me. And I always wanted to be an actor.' As she welcomes us into her eclectic space, she's making breakfast, casually warm and candid. 'I can't do without quite healthy [food],' she grins. But what's truly nourishing here isn't just her granola—it's her home, filled with memories, reclaimed furniture, and intentional design. 'I always look for houses with enough light,' she said on an old episode of Asian Paints Where The Heart Is, explaining how natural light is non-negotiable. 'This house has higher ceilings, which makes it look a little more breathing area and spacious.' Her husband, British musician Benedict Taylor, helped nudge her toward Mumbai, and also helped spot this gem of a home. 'He has a great sense of which house to live in because he looks at the light… I'm better at turning it into that thing.' That 'thing' is a space layered with meaning—plants because she grew up around trees, fan-painting ideas borrowed from an old teacher, and an old jhoola inherited from her grandmother. 'I hold memories, and I like and let go of things. This is something I never let go [of]… The smell of the wood reminds me of her, sometimes even the dust on it reminds me,' she says, gently touching an antique stool. Then there's the chair. 'This was one of the first pieces of furniture I got made with my own money. Mostly because my mum loves it. She finds it extremely perfect to sit on—it's her spot.' In her favourite corner, she's transformed a former balcony into a breezy tea nook. 'This is one of my favorite spots. I open this completely, and there's such great breeze—even in Bombay.' Each room has its own personality—her bedroom is cozy and light-filled, with mirrored wardrobes that bounce sunlight around, while her guest room is casual and nap-ready. 'I like to fall asleep on a sofa,' she confesses. But it's her bright yellow wall that really stands out. 'This wall is mango yellow. I'm going to fill it with all kinds of paintings—so one day, it'll be completely full.' Radhika also gives us a peek into her 'transition' space—her glam room that bridges her personal life and actor persona. 'I get ready here, do my makeup, and then literally exit. It creates that distance between my private and professional space.' When asked what home means to her, Radhika answers without a pause: 'A better home is a place we welcome people and make them feel comfortable. I think that's where my heart lies.'
