Raageshwari says she knows two couples who called off their divorces after the Ahmedabad plane crash: 'A calamity like this also makes us pause and reflect'
Last week the tragic incident of Air India Boeing 787 crash which killed 241 people onboard was heartwrenching. As the entire country mourned the lives lost, singer and actress Raageshwari has now penned a note describing how a tragedy helps people realise the value of relationships in their life. She took to Instagram and shared a video reflecting on the aftermath of the tragic crash. She wrote, "Did you know, after the heartbreaking airplane crash, people started to call their families? I know of two couples who decided to let go of their divorces. Families suddenly allowed their egos to soften, their arguments to be resolved. What shifted? Psychologists say it always takes a calamity for us humans to realise where our blessings lie, and that's why contrast is a must in life. " She added, "We have to go through the lows to appreciate the highs. We have to go through failures to truly appreciate the joys of success. A calamity like this also makes us pause and reflect on what truly matters—that life is fragile, and relationships are sacred. So, I hope you will now spend time with your family mindfully, truly making them feel precious and special. No wonder a wise person once said, people will forget what you say, what you wear or how you look—but people will never forget how you make them feel. So go ahead, make people feel precious. Make your family feel precious." Many celebs from Amitabh Bachchan and Shah Rukh Khan expressed their grief on social media.
