‘I wasn't supposed to feel gareeb in India': Dubai vlogger left shocked after Rs 1,000 chai in Mumbai
A Dubai-based Indian travel vlogger has gone viral for something most NRIs can relate to — the shock of returning home and finding India anything but 'cheap.' Parikshit Balochi, a radio presenter and content creator, recently posted a candid Instagram video about how the cost of living back home has left him stunned. His witty yet exasperated rant, especially about a cup of tea that set him back Rs 1,000, has already crossed half a million his video, Balochi confessed that earning in dirhams always gave him the impression that India would be his playground for carefree spending. 'I am an NRI, I was not supposed to feel gareeb (poor) in India,' he said, sounding equal parts amused and frustrated. But instead of feeling wealthy, the inflated bills in Mumbai hotels and cafés have made him rethink the entire NRI privilege. Nothing captured his disbelief better than the price of a humble cup of tea. 'Rs 1,000 is what we used to put on the stock market when I left India. What is happening?' he explained that the unspoken 'deal' NRIs had with India was simple — come home, convert dirhams to rupees, and live like royalty. He said that converting dirhams into rupees was supposed to make him feel richer, not leave him shocked. Instead of showing off his wealth, he now jokes that he might actually need flexible payment plans just to survive the a mix of satire and genuine worry, Balochi ended his rant by pointing out how much money locals must be managing to spend daily. 'Yahan pe logon se puch raha hun, kitna paisa hai bhai tumhare paas,' he said, marvelling at how residents navigate this reality.

Janmashtami celebrated with devotion in state
1 2 Bhubaneswar: Janmashtami was celebrated with festive spirit and joy across the state on Friday. Devotees thronged several important religious sites, including the Jagannath Temple in Puri and Iskcon Temple in Bhubaneswar, among others, to celebrate the festival. Many devotees gathered at temples and homes to perform puja at midnight, when it is believed that Krishna was born, while many observed a "nirjala" fast (without water) or the "phalahar" fast (fruits and milk only). Many places across the state organised devotional songs and dances to honour Krishna's divine nature. In temples and homes, baby Krishna idols were bathed in "panchamrit", dressed in new clothes, and placed in cradles. Though primarily dedicated to Lord Jagannath, the Srimandira in Puri celebrated Janmashtami with symbolic enactments of Krishna's birth, "sandhya dhupa", and placing Lord Madan Mohan in a chariot near the prayer hall. The rituals included dramatic portrayals of Krishna's birth and special prasad. "The Janmashtami celebration of Srimandira is unique. The enactment of the exact story of Lord Krishna's birth is amazing. I came here for the first time during Janmashtami, and I am feeling blessed to witness such a celebration," Bidhan Kumar, a devotee at Puri, said. Iskcon Temple in Bhubaneswar, in the meantime, hosted midnight Maha Arti, bhajans, and devotional gatherings. Thousands of devotees participated in the celebrations. "Every year I come to Iskcon to celebrate Janmashtami. It is a divine feeling," Srimayee Jena, a devotee, said. Dedicated to the milk-stealing form of Krishna, Khirachora Gopinath Temple in Remuna, Balasore, which is popular for its sweet offerings and Nanda Utsav celebrations, also made special arrangements for Janmashtami. Devotees thronged the temple from early in the morning. Similarly, Sakhigopal Temple in Puri, also known as Satyabadi Gopinatha Temple, Ananta Basudeva Temple in Bhubaneswar, Sabar Srikhetra in Koraput, and Nilamadhaba Temple in Kantilo, Nayagarh, also made special arrangements for the grand celebration of Janmashtami. "Janmashtami is the occasion when we celebrate the birth of Lord Krishna. As we have read in scriptures, Lord Krishna came to the earth to overpower evil.
