What to expect in chapter 22?
Without diving too far into spoiler territory, Ch. 21 sent readers reeling in a real pulse-pounding cliffhanger that featured loaded character-driven motives and escalating combat. Boruto, now a more mature and hardened version of himself, is moving towards an eventual showdown with Code, the current main villain who still poses a huge threat to the shinobi world.
As Chapter 22 nears, here are some important storylines that have enraptured fans thus far.
Boruto vs Code Rematch— Anime Exclusive Clues indicate that we'll soon get to witness the long awaited rematch between Boruto and Code, with Boruto's new, time skip evolved powers on display.
The character of Sarada Uchiha quickly won over fans with her fiery determination and strong leadership ideals. Those two elements—or rather her rich dynamic with Boruto and her burgeoning Sharingan powers—are likely to be crucial to the arc's ultimate resolution in the chapters that follow.
The internal struggle of Kawaki, who is ready to go to the ends of the earth to defend Naruto, could go on a more sinister route. Chapter 22 might have provided a clue as to what his next move is going to be.
Return of Naruto?! Fans have long speculated some sort of indication at Naruto's return with a series of rumors circling the anime community. Though not officially verified, just the hint of Naruto would surely set the world ablaze.
The mood of Two Blue Vortex is still much more serious and somber than the original manga Boruto was: The opening arc of Boruto: Naruto Next Generations perfectly exemplifies this new approach to storytelling that resonates with established Naruto fans and newcomers alike.
The importance of this chapter
Chapter 22 is a watershed moment for the comic book series. With the story already building full steam ahead towards a climax between the new generation shinobi and the remnants of the Ōtsutsuki threat, every single chapter feels like it has some huge narrative stakes. The artistic quality has taken a huge leap forward under the new direction, with action panels hailed for their detail and clarity.
Even from a fan-engagement standpoint, this chapter is sure to light the fuse on THOUSANDS of conversations on various social media outlets like Reddit, X (formerly Twitter), and of course the communities on Discord. In fact, global search trends for 'Boruto Chapter 22 spoilers' and 'Boruto vs Code' have already shot up worldwide during the past week leading up to its release.
Whether you're a Naruto series old hand or a newcomer to the Boruto world, Chapter 22 of Two Blue Vortex is sure to be a dynamic chapter to the story.

‘Ghar aisa lag raha hai hum log Punjab mein aa gaye hain': Inside ‘Gangotri,' Sonu Sood's new bungalow
When Farah Khan visited Sonu Sood's brand-new Mumbai bungalow for her vlog, it felt more like catching up with an old friend. 'Aaj main mere bohot khaas friend ke ghar aayi hoon. Aap log ne filmon mein heroes to dekhe honge lekin yeh asli life mein hero hai,' Farah said as she entered the actor's home, setting the tone for a playful walkthrough of Sood's life off-camera. Named 'Gangotri,' Sonu's sprawling residence in Mumbai, reportedly worth ₹20 crore according to Jugyah, mirrors his grounded personality despite his star status. With a touch of Punjab in the décor and vibe, Farah couldn't help but exclaim, 'Sonu ji ka ghar aisa lag raha hai hum log Punjab mein aa gaye hain.' The house opens with a grand entrance featuring a Buddha statue and a cosy outdoor seating space, surrounded by lush greenery. The name 'Gangotri' stands tall at the gate, both in English and Hindi, marking its identity. The interiors boast a pristine white-and-beige palette, from the sofa set in the living area to the stylish dining space that leads up a gorgeous white staircase. Farah quipped about Sonu's calm composure and his Punjab-inspired hospitality as they toured the outdoor seating. The tour also offered a glimpse into Sonu's personal spaces. His elder son Ishant's room, showcasing a self-made car canvas, stands out with its grey-themed décor and private exit. His younger son Ahaan's room brings in vibrant anime art and a splash of yellow furniture, highlighting the playful side of the household. The first floor features a sleek media room with white sofas and a massive TV, a space Sonu uses for meetings. But the showstopper? A unique thread art portrait gifted by a fan, something Sonu proudly showcased to Farah. And of course, there's the shared sneaker room. Sonu and his sons, all sharing the same shoe size, built this sneaker haven together. Outside, a serene balcony surrounded by trees, including a mango tree, completes the homely yet luxurious vibe. Farah summed it up best when she said, 'Wow, just a nice house, looks like Om Shanti Om set,' to which Sonu replied, 'Yes, it's inspired by that only.'

Feel humbled: Makers of God Vulture and Human on winning National Award
A still from the dicumentary In a proud moment for Ahmedabad, God Vulture and Human (English, Hindi, and Telugu) won the Best Documentary award at the 71 st National Film Awards. The documentary, co-produced by IIM Ahmedabad (IIMA) faculty Dr Rajesh Chandwani and directed by National Institute of Design (NID) alumnus Rishiraj Agarwal, explores organ donation from the perspective of Organ Transplant Coordinators (OTCs). What is the documentary about? God Vulture and Human highlights the role of OTCs in the process of organ donation, retrieval, and transplantation, and explores the challenges faced by them. While the donor's family often has a negative perception about them (they are seen like vultures), the recipient's family perceives them as God. Rishiraj Agarwal, director of the documentary, says, 'The idea of devotion to work is the overarching theme of the documentary. I found the stories of these coordinators really inspiring. ' Dr Rajesh Chandwani OTCs are like symphony artists; they have to manage so many things: Rajesh Chandwani The documentary was inspired by Dr Chandwani's research paper on the same subject. He says, 'I have been working in this field (organ donation) since 2017 and had met Nilesh Mandlewala (founder of an NGO working towards awareness and promotion of organ donation) that year. We had the first NATCO (Network and Alliance of Transplant Coordinators) conference at IIMA in 2018, where I met several OTCs. I was fascinated by their work. The intention behind this documentary was to promote awareness about the crucial role coordinators play and the National Award feels humbling. Not everyone will read my research paper, a documentary allows me to reach out to more people.' He adds, 'OTCs are like symphony artists; they have to manage so many things-convincing the donor's family, coordinating with multiple teams, including cops. They face unforeseen challenges. For example, they may need to arrange for 10kg of ice at a short notice. Also, it can be tricky for them because time is crucial once a person is declared brain dead. However, the donor's family can get angry with them and they have to be careful. We plan to make two more documentaries-one on the donors' families (already shot), and another one on the hospitals and the system.' Rishiraj Agarwal This award has made me more confident: Rishiraj Agarwal Rishiraj, who directed the documentary as a single-person crew, says, 'This was my first attempt at the medium-long documentary format. I had never imagined that I would win a National Award so soon. At NID, our teachers would always talk about the importance of National Awards and I always dreamed of winning one. We had applied to many international fests and while people appreciated my film, overall, the response was mixed, and I had my share of rejections too. This award has made me more confident about my craft and I guess people will also feel more confident now about working with me.' He adds, 'I would always wonder about how people working at the forefront of the healthcare industry must be having their own struggles and grievances towards life. In 2016, after a brain operation and 18 months of regular hospital visits, I lost my father. Post that, while dealing with my own grief, I was able to empathize with others' grief more. When this opportunity came, it instantly hit the right chord and I started working on it. I am grateful to my guide Shilpa Das. Also, my friend Bhuwan constantly motivated me and helped me out with the technical aspects whenever I got stuck.' Talking about OTCs, Rishiraj says, 'Their tireless efforts- coordination with multiple stakeholders and counselling the grieving family, make them unsung heroes who work in silence. The film is an effort to humanize them.'
