Uttarakhand Flash Flood: Sara Ali Khan Prays For ‘Safety' Of Victims, Says ‘My Heart Goes…'
Last Updated: Sara Ali Khan was last seen in Metro… In Dino. Directed by Anurag Basu, the drama has received immense love. Sara Ali Khan expressed her solidarity and concern for those affected by the recent tragic incident in Uttarakhand. On Tuesday, a cloudburst in Uttarkashi district caused flash floods, wreaking havoc in the high-altitude villages of Dharali. The actress posted a message on her social media for the victims. In a note shared on a black background, Sara wrote, 'My heart goes out to everyone impacted by the incident in Uttarakhand. Praying for safety, strength and healing for all." She ended the message with folded hands and a blue heart emoji. She also shared critical emergency contact numbers issued by the Uttarkashi District Emergency Operation Centre, amplifying official resources to aid rescue and relief efforts. The disaster claimed the lives of four people, while at least 130 people were rescued as authorities swung into action despite unfavourable weather conditions and incessant rain in the region. The incident occurred around 1.45 pm, approximately 4 km from the Indian Army camp at Harshil. Two cloudbursts, one in Dharali and another in the Sukhi Top area, caused widespread destruction, with Dharali bearing the brunt. Reportedly, the region also suffered from mudslides. Rescue and relief efforts are ongoing, led by the Indian Army, Indo-Tibetan Border Police (ITBP), National Disaster Response Force (NDRF), and State Disaster Response Force (SDRF). Indian Air Force Chinook, Mi-17 V5, ALH, and Cheetah helicopters are on active standby at Chandigarh Air Base, ready to deploy with equipment and relief material as soon as weather conditions improve. 'The choppers are ready with the required equipment and material and would take off as soon as the weather clears up in the affected areas," officials told news agency ANI. Meanwhile, Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami, who returned from Andhra Pradesh in the wake of the disaster, headed straight to the State Emergency Operation Centre in Dehradun, where he has been coordinating relief and rescue efforts along with senior officials of the administration, police and others. He said restoring electricity was a top priority and was being taken up on a war footing. Sara Ali Khan's work front: Sara Ali Khan was last seen in Metro… In Dino.

Disha Patani's sister Khushboo Patani warns trolls of legal action; clarifies her criticism was aimed at Aniruddhacharya, not Premanand Ji
Disha Patani's sister and former army officer, Khushboo Patani, has found herself at the centre of a social media storm. After speaking out against religious orator Aniruddhacharya Maharaj for his remarks on live-in relationships, her comments were misunderstood by many. Trolls wrongly assumed she was targeting another spiritual figure, Premanand Ji Maharaj, and began spreading fake news about her. Now, Khushboo has promised strict legal action against those targeting her online. Trolls confuse her criticism Khushboo's anger was directed at a video where Aniruddhacharya Maharaj was allegedly heard saying, 'Ladke laate hain 25 saal ki ladkiyon ko, jo 4-5 jagah mooh maar ke aati hain.' In response to that statement, Khushboo wrote, 'Agar ye mere saamne hota, to main isko samjha deti ki mooh maarna kya hota hai. These are anti-nationalists. You should not be supporting such bastards of the highest order.' But soon after, social media exploded with confusion, with many assuming her reaction was aimed at Premanand Ji Maharaj, who had separately gone viral for his views on relationships. This misunderstanding led to a wave of online hate. Khushboo issues a clear legal warning To shut down the fake claims, Khushboo posted a new video and issued a firm warning, wherein she also cleared the air, saying her criticism was against Aniruddhacharya and not against Premanand Ji. In the caption, she wrote, 'Fake News Against Me! Deliberate effort to defame me! (sic)' She followed this with a detailed message, making it clear that she was taking things seriously. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 30 Beautiful women who lived 80-100 years ago Undo She mentioned, 'All accounts who are deliberately spreading fake news against me will be sued by me under the law of the land! @yourrspiritualgirl this channel has put serious fake news against me, which has nothing to do with me and puts me at unnecessary trolling and risk.
