Rakhi 2025: Overwhelmed By 15,000 Sisters, Khan Sir Joked 'Call The Doctor, Hands Numb'
While Khan Sir was getting Rakhi tied by all his sisters on stage, some girls called out asking about 'Bhabhi'. Khan Sir replied that Rakshabandhan is only for his sisters
In a heartwarming display of camaraderie, Patna witnessed a unique celebration of Rakshabandhan orchestrated by the renowned educator Khan Sir. This year, over 15,000 girls came together to tie Rakhi to their beloved teacher, marking a significant rise in participation compared to previous years.
Due to the overwhelming response, the event was held at the Sri Krishna Memorial Hall for the first time, a departure from the usual setting in Khan Sir's coaching centre.
Khan Sir, known for his dedication to his students, arranged 156 different types of food items for the occasion, ensuring a festive atmosphere. The Rakhi-tying ceremony commenced at 10 am and continued until 1:30 pm, with Khan Sir sitting on stage as a long queue of girls awaited their turn.
At one point, Khan Sir had so many Rakhis tied on his hands that they went numb. He even joked on the mic, asking to call a doctor because the blood had stopped flowing. But there was no real cause for concern, and the Rakhi-tying continued despite this.
Local 18 spoke to several girls who praised Khan Sir. They said, 'Khan Sir is not just the best teacher but also like a brother. We feel safest in his classroom anywhere in Patna. Teaching us at such a low fee is a great gift."
Some girls also said that on Rakshabandhan, they are receiving significant discounts on certain courses, which they consider a wonderful gift.
Interestingly, Khan Sir does not have any biological sisters, yet he regards all his female students as his sisters and has been hosting Rakshabandhan celebrations since the beginning of his teaching career.
Over time, the scale of the event has grown significantly, making Khan Sir a unique figure who receives thousands of Rakhis each year, embodying the spirit of brotherhood and dedication.

Simone Ashley, Joshua Jackson Spotted Together In NYC, Spark Dating Buzz
Actors Joshua Jackson and Simone Ashley sparked dating rumors after being seen together in NYC. Simone Ashley and Joshua Jackson, two well-known actors, were recently spotted spending time together in New York City. This caught the attention of fans and the media, who quickly began to wonder if the two might be dating. The sighting is notable because it is the first time the pair have been seen out in public alone, sharing laughs and walking close to each other. Both actors have busy work lives but found a moment to enjoy each other's company, which has only added to the excitement around their relationship. Over the weekend, the two actors were seen enjoying a relaxed stroll, sharing laughs and walking closely in Manhattan. Joshua Jackson, 47, dressed casually in a white T-shirt paired with dark pants and green sneakers. Meanwhile, 30-year-old Simone Ashley opted for a white lace camisole, a printed midi skirt, and white sneakers. This marks the first public appearance of the pair spending time alone together. Their meeting comes amid demanding work commitments for both stars. Joshua Jackson is currently filming Happy Hours in New York, a project that reunites him with his Dawson's Creek co-star Katie Holmes. On the other hand, Simone Ashley is working on The Devil Wears Prada 2, starring alongside acclaimed actress Meryl Streep. Simone Ashley has been open about focusing on personal growth after ending her long-term relationship with Constantin 'Tino" Klein earlier this year. Speaking candidly in February, she described herself as being in a 'single era" and expressed no hurry to begin dating again. 'It can be easy to jump into the next thing immediately, which is something that I am choosing not to do," Ashley told People magazine in March. She also shared her hopes for a future partner: 'I'm looking for someone who is so confident in themselves and is really ready to have an open heart in the same way I do. And I think that's hard to find." The actress said that her current year is filled with exciting professional projects and personal growth. Joshua Jackson has also been single for some time. He was previously linked to Lupita Nyong'o, with whom he confirmed a relationship in December 2023. The couple enjoyed a beach vacation in Mexico following their public announcement. Joshua's relationship with Nyong'o began shortly after his divorce from Jodie Turner-Smith was filed in October 2023, concluding their four-year marriage. Jackson and Turner-Smith share a daughter named Juno and have been involved in a custody dispute. Neither Joshua Jackson nor Simone Ashley have commented publicly on the recent sightings or the ensuing dating rumours. First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

Sonali Bendre Shares Rare Childhood Pictures As Son Ranveer's Turns 20
Sonali Bendre dropped her son's mischievous and cute moments from his childhood, along with a sweet message on his birthday. Sonali Bendre and her husband, Goldie Behl, are celebrating a special day as their son Ranveer Behl turns 20 on August 12. To celebrate this moment, Sonali shared some rare and sweet childhood photos of Ranveer on her official social media handle. The pictures show Ranveer's mischievous and cute moments from his childhood. Along with the photos, Sonali wrote a sweet message, saying that no matter how tall he gets, he will always remain her little boy. The post quickly attracted attention from fans and a number of well known Bollywood actors, who sent birthday wishes and love for Ranveer. The first photo captures Ranveer looking adorable as he gazes at the camera. Another picture shows him making funny faces while dancing. There is also a cute shot of Ranveer holding the family's dog tight. Taking to Instagram, Sonali wrote, 'No matter how tall you get, you'll always be my little one. Happy birthday Rann." Soon after Sonali Bendre posted her birthday wishes for her son Ranveer Behl on social media, many Bollywood stars filled the comment section with wishes. Well known personalities like Farah Khan Kunder, Raveena Tandon, Anupam Kher, Maheep Kapoor, Kunal Kapoor, Deanne Panday, Namrata Shirodkar and Bhavana Pandey shared messages for the young boy. A few years ago, the Sarfarosh actress was in the news for her fight against cancer. But even though her battle was tough, seeing her child suffer is even harder. In a 2023 interview with Bollywood Bubble, Sonali spoke about her son's battle with asthma. Sonali Bendre said, 'My son is asthmatic. For me, that is the connect, and hence you know you start looking at it, what are the causes and it's a non-communicable disease. So, what happens is because nobody else around is getting affected by it, you don't think of it as something that's an illness or a disease, only the family or the child is affected or the person, I would say is struggling through it." 'When a child can't breathe and when you see that as a parent, it's scary. The whole world comes to a standstill and nothing else really matters. Breath is so important and that's life. When your child can't breathe, it's the scariest thing a mother can go through or parents can go through," the actress added. Sonali Bendre and Goldie Behl welcomed Ranveer in 2005.
