‘I wasn't deported': US-returned techie now sells rajma chawal in Mohali. Watch
After spending three years in the United States, working in the IT space, Maninder Singh has returned to the motherland. Instead of an office job, however, Singh has chosen a more offbeat career path - the US-returned techie is now selling street food in Mohali. A video featuring Singh and his food stall was shared on the popular Instagram channel 'Foodler'. Omar, the content creator behind the channel, told that Singh returned to India in January and now runs a food stall in Mohali, Punjab. In the video, Singh whipped out his driving license from New York as proof that he once lived in the Big Apple. He explained that he has 12 years of total work experience in tech, retail, call centres and IT. It was a tech job that took Singh to his United States. He was in the country for three years. After the death of his father, however, Singh moved back to India. 'No, I wasn't deported,' he clarified in the video. Singh and his wife now run a food stall in the popular 3B2 market of Mohali. She does all the cooking, while he sets up the stall and sells the food. On the day the video was filmed, Singh was selling rajma, chawal, kadhi pakoda, rotis, soya chaap and mango lassi. A post shared by Foodler (@realfoodler) 'I was in the United States for three years. My wife has 20 years of experience in cooking, so we thought of starting a food business. I help her, but she is the one who cooks,' Singh told Omar in the video. 'He started this food joint just 2-3 months back. Right now the income is not fixed as the business is new,' Omar told 'His wife prepares everything in the morning and he starts his work at 1 pm. Around 3 pm, his wife joins him as well.' For many people across the world, settling down in the US is a lifelong dream. In fact, so deeply entrenched is the attraction that many resort to illegal 'Dunki' routes or cross borders illegally to reach the US. Maninder Singh, however, has no wish to return to the US. 'He told me that it might look interesting for people to visit or stay in the US, but he loves his home and would not want to go back to the US again even if he gets another chance,' Omar told Instead, the small business owner wants to expand his menu and add new dishes, eventually hoping to turn a profit.

Who Are RM And V - BTS Members Discharged From Mandatory Military Service?
Last Updated: V and RM are the latest members of the septet to complete their 18-month mandatory military service. The day ARMYs across the globe have been eagerly waiting for is finally here! BTS stars Kim Namjoon (RM) and Kim Taehyung (V) were officially discharged on Tuesday, June 10, after completing their 18-month mandatory military service. With this, the duo becomes the latest among the BTS septet to finish their enlistment, marking another milestone in the group's return. From heartwarming posts and fan projects to trending hashtags, RM and V's return has created a wave of happiness that is hard to miss. And if you are still wondering who the two BTS stars are, fret not. We have got you covered. Here's everything you need to know about Kim Namjoon and Kim Taehyung. Who Is BTS' RM? Kim Namjoon, aka Rap Monster or Real Me (RM), is the leader of the globally renowned K-pop band BTS. His love for poetry from childhood piqued his interest in the performing arts. He began his career in music as rapper Runch Randa, rapping in local hip-hop circles and later joining the underground Korean Hip-hop scene. In June 2013, he debuted with Big Hit Entertainment's (now HYBE) boy group, BTS. Besides his work with the septet, RM also managed to carve a niche for himself as a solo artist. Just two years after his debut with the group, he began his career as a soloist, releasing his single titled P.D.D. (Please Don't Die). It was a collaboration with American rapper Warren G. He released his debut self-titled mixtape, RM, in March 2015. In 2018, he released his second mixtape, Mono, followed by his first studio album, Indigo, in 2022. View this post on Instagram A post shared by RM (@rkive) While serving in the military, RM released his second studio album, Right Place, Wrong Person, followed by a documentary which captured the making of the project titled Right People, Wrong Place. He enlisted at the Korean Army Training Centre in Nonsan in December 2023 and served with the military band of the 15th Infantry Division till his discharge on June 10. Who Is BTS' V? Kim Taehyung, best known to his fans as V, is one of the vocalists and visuals of BTS. While he has been interested in singing and dancing since childhood, V never planned to audition for Big Hit Entertainment. He accompanied his friend to the audition for the company, and as fate would have it, V ended up getting selected for BTS. Besides his work with the septet, the singer also sang a few K-drama OSTs, including It's Definitely You from Hwarang: The Poet Warrior Youth and Christmas Tree from Our Beloved Summer. In September 2023, V released his first-ever solo studio album, Layover. It immediately ranked at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 chart. In December last year, during his military service, the BTS star dropped two singles, White Christmas and Winter Ahead. View this post on Instagram A post shared by V (@thv) Apart from music, Taehyung made his on-screen debut in 2016 with the historical drama Hwarang: The Poet Warrior Youth and was seen on a bunch of variety shows, including Disney+'s In the Soop: Friendcation. He enlisted on December 11 and, after the completion of his basic training, was assigned to the Special Task Force of the Military Police Corps. He also got discharged along with RM.
