Archana Puran Singh slams a troll who mocked her family setup by calling their home an 'Old Age Home'
Archana Puran Singh
, who started her own YouTube channel a few months ago, and keeps giving a sneak peek of her family life through her videos, recently slammed an Instagram troll who mocked her family setup by calling her home an "old age home'.
The comment came under one of Archana's social media posts, where a user questioned why her elderly mother and other senior family members were living with her. The remark was made on one of Archana's social media uploads, where someone asked why she had her aging mother and other elderly relatives staying with her.
The comment read, "Just for academic interest, why is your Daadu and Naani living together? Is it like an old age home? (sic)."
This comment made by the troll did not go unnoticed by Archana and she gave a befitting reply to the remark.
She responded, "Just for your academic knowledge: it's not an 'old age' home. It's an Indian home. Let me further give you the definition of an 'Indian home'; it's where elders are loved and respected and kept close to the family."
That's not all, Archana shared the screenshot of the remark on her Instagram account, calling out the troll.

Kim So Hyun reveals if Park Bo Gum is rude in real life, opens up about her ‘lethargic, unmotivated' image
Kim So Hyun and Park Bo Gum's onscreen reunion after a decade as co-stars is currently the most talked-about K-drama moment. The two are headlining Prime Video's Good Boy, alongside Lee Sang Yi, Tae Won Seok, Park Chul Min, and more. In the Shim Na Yeon directorial, Kim So Hyun plays Ji Hana, a former Olympic shooting gold medalist, who also happens to be the love interest of Yoon Dong Jo, played by Bo Gum. The actor recently sat down for a fun chat with Elle Korea, where she opened up about working with her co-stars, spilled on her social media habits, and shared how her advice game has seriously leveled up over the years. Also read: Park Bo Gum made a request to Kim So Hyun years ago: 'Remember this when the time comes'; the story behind Good Boy casting During the chat, So Hyun was asked to differentiate between Park Bo Gum's on-screen and off-screen behaviour. She was also pressed about the widely circulated rumour that he's rude on set. Despite the popular belief that he's one of the kindest actors in the K-drama scene, a few past incidents, and a recent when life gives you tangerines situation, where workers claimed they were treated rudely (without naming anyone), sparked some gossip. To that, Kim So Hyun said flat out: he's very kind. 'Is he a little bit rude?' So Hyun said with a laugh, adding that she gets asked questions like that all the time. 'But in this case, it's the opposite.' While she described Yoon Dong Joo as a bit frustrating, always hovering around her and the reason she ends up slapping her own forehead over and over, real-life Bo Gum, she said, is like a puppy. 'He's like a puppy. Full of love, affection, and cuteness.' Earlier, at a press conference, So Hyun also admitted that Bo Gum was the only reason she said yes to Good Boy. 'As soon as I heard that he was cast, I knew I had to be part of this project.' And this isn't the first time Bo Gum's been showered with praise by his female co-stars. His Tangerines co-lead IU once called him a walking green flag. Also read: Good Boy first Impression: Don't be fooled by 'Pouty' Park Bo Gum, he's delivering career-best punches Despite being active in the industry for years, So Hyun has only taken up a handful of roles. And most of the time, she gets criticised for having a 'boring' personality. When asked about it, Kim laughed it off. 'People say I look tired or bored, but I'm just shy. I don't react with big expressions, so even when I'm enjoying something, it doesn't show.' In the same breath, she also revealed the nickname she's earned on set. 'Everyone calls me 'grandma.' They said I looked extra tired today, but I'm usually just observing things with a warm smile, that's my vibe.' Apart from acting, So Hyun is also known for her huge mutual list on Instagram. She's currently following over 6,000 accounts, and a lot of those are fan pages. The actor revealed, back when she was still a teenager and Instagram was just taking off, she would often reply to DMs from fans and even give out advice. 'I didn't really know much about relationships,' she laughed, 'but I used to give a lot of career advice.' Now that she's in her mid-20s, Kim says she can finally offer relationship advice too. 'Don't date someone with a temper. Find someone kind, warm, and soft-hearted… like a loaf of bread.' But this wholesome approach of being concerned for everyone came with some setbacks. At one point, her account was even suspended for following too many fans too fast. These days, she's more careful. 'I still follow back sometimes,' she shared, 'but I check the first DM they ever sent me. If I feel like they've been a genuine fan for a while, I follow them back.'

He made Lata Mangeshkar and Kishore Kumar overnight stars, yet his wife was found begging at Mumbai station. Who was Khemchand Prakash?
Javed Akhtar , a respected voice in the Indian film industry, has consistently supported the cause of fair compensation for those behind the creation of music — including lyricists, composers, and singers. His passionate advocacy for the Copyright (Amendment) Bill 2010 stemmed not only from a sense of justice but also from heartbreaking real-life stories that illustrate the absence of protective systems for creators. One such story is that of legendary composer Khemchand Prakash , whose family endured neglect and hardship after his untimely death. Prakash's name is etched in the golden era of Hindi cinema as a musical genius who shaped the careers of icons like Lata Mangeshkar , Kishore Kumar, Naushad, and Manna Dey. In an era when fresh talent struggled to find recognition, it was Prakash who gave Lata her big break in the film Ziddi in 1948. However, it was their second collaboration — the hauntingly beautiful 'Aayega Aane Wala' from Mahal — that catapulted her into national fame. Unfortunately, Prakash did not live to see the success of the film or the song, as he passed away in 1950 at the young age of 42 due to liver cirrhosis. His death not only marked the end of a brilliant musical journey but also pushed his family into financial turmoil. His wife, Sridevi, and daughter, Chandrakala, reportedly received little to no support from the industry. Their financial situation worsened over time, and in a painful revelation later shared by Javed Akhtar in the Rajya Sabha, it was found that Prakash's wife was reduced to begging at a Mumbai railway station, decades after her husband had composed timeless melodies. The industry's failure to support the families of its pioneers exposed the systemic gaps in how creators were compensated. Akhtar's speech during the parliamentary session served as both a tribute and a call to action. He emphasized how creators like Prakash were denied their rightful earnings because royalties were either poorly enforced or entirely absent. He argued that if Prakash's family had received ongoing income from the music he composed, their lives would have been very different. One of his compositions alone, 'Aayega Aane Wala,' could have earned his family lakhs in royalties, with reports suggesting a potential amount of ₹50 lakh. Khemchand Prakash was born in 1907 into a family deeply rooted in classical performance traditions. His father, Goverdhan Das, was a skilled Dhrupad singer and Kathak performer in the royal court of Madho Singh II. Though Prakash began his musical career early, his initial contributions to the 1935 version of Devdas were uncredited. His formal debut came in 1939 with Meri Aankhein. Over the next decade, he delivered a series of hits, including in films like Tansen, Ziddi, and Mahal. His compositions graced the voices of KL Saigal, Shamshad Begum, Noorjehan, and Kamini Kaushal, setting a high bar for Bollywood music. One of Prakash's greatest contributions to the industry was not just his music but his talent-spotting abilities. He discovered Kishore Kumar and brought him to public attention with the song 'Marne Ki Duaaen Kyun Maangu.' Lata Mangeshkar herself recalled in a 2020 interview that her first meeting with Kishore took place en route to Prakash's studio, highlighting how the composer was the connecting thread in some of Indian cinema 's most celebrated artistic unions. Today, the story of Khemchand Prakash stands as both a tribute to a musical visionary and a stark reminder of how creators can be forgotten if laws fail to protect their contributions. His life and legacy underscore the urgency of reform in recognizing and rewarding artistic labor — not just for the sake of artists, but for the dignity of their families as well.
