Bollywood bats for stray dogs: John Abraham, Janhvi Kapoor, Varun Dhawan and other celebs react to SC's order

Bollywood celebrities became the latest ones to condemn Supreme Court's order to remove all stray dogs in the Delhi-NCR area to shelters. Celebrities like John Abraham, Raveena Tandon, Janhvi Kapoor, Varun Dhawan, Varun Grover and more have strongly reacted to the decision on social media. John Abraham wrote a letter to Hon'ble Chief Justice of India, Justice B. R Gavai, urging a review of the recent Supreme Court's direction in the matter. Calling the decision 'inhumane', an excerpt from his letter read, 'It has been widely reported that a recent judgment by the division bench comprising Hon'ble Justice JB Pardiwala and Hon'ble Justice R Mahadevan has directed the removal of all stray dogs in Delhi from public spaces to shelters or far-off areas. I hope you will agree that these are not 'strays' but community dogs—respected and loved by many, and very much Delhiites in their own right, having lived in the region as neighbours to humans for generations.' Raveena Tandon blamed the local bodies for the increase in the population of stray dogs. She told HT, 'I feel where the population of indies have increased, it is honestly not these poor dogs to be blamed. It means the vaccination and sterilisation drives aren't done by local bodies." Janhvi and Varun Dhawan re-shared a note on their Instagram Stories, critising the order. The note mentioned that even though 'there are problems,' but caging an entire community of animals is not a solution.' The note read: "They call it a menace. We call it a heartbeat. Today, the Supreme Court says — take every stray dog off the streets of Delhi-NCR and lock them away. No sunlight. No freedom. No familiar faces they greet every morning." It also said, "But these aren't just 'stray dogs.' They are the ones who wait outside your tea stall for a biscuit. They are the silent night guards for shopkeepers. They are the tails wagging when children return from school. They are the warmth in a cold, uncaring city. Yes, there are problems — bites, safety concerns — but caging an entire community of animals is not a solution, it's an erasure. The real fix? Large-scale sterilisation programs, regular vaccination drives, community feeding zones, and adoption campaigns. Not punishment. Not imprisonment. A society that can't protect its voiceless is a society losing its soul. Today it's the dogs. Tomorrow... who will it be?" Lyricist, writer, and stand-up comedian Varun Grover posted on X, formerly Twitter, "Stray dog problem is real. And it's a problem created by humans who hate dogs not by those who love dogs. Stray dog sterilisation efforts by individuals and NGOs have been constantly blocked by societies by calling them dog-feeders." He further added, "And now when their own blocking tactics made the problem huge, they are saying the only solution is to transport the dogs to 'shelters' that don't exist in the first place. We all know what that means. Rabies cases are a huge failure of the system and the solution can't be the forced starvation or trauma to the animals. Hope the animal activists and authorities sit together and find humane solutions." Actor-comedian Vir Das, who adopted stray dogs a few years ago, urged people to come forward and adopt dogs in Delhi-NCR. "If you are a resident of Delhi. Can I persuade you to adopt an indie off the streets, more than one? They are extremely healthy, low maintenance, and will provide you with more love affection and gratitude than you could ever imagine," he shared. "Am also asking you to wholeheartedly and generously support your nearest animal welfare NGO. I plan on doing so, I hope you will too. As appeals are filed in court and processes take their time, it's important for our humanity to kick in immediately. Please do your part, big or small, it all adds up." On Monday, the Supreme Court directed all the strays to be removed and put in shelters by the Delhi government and civic bodies of Gurugram, Noida and Ghaziabad area. A bench of Justices J B Pardiwala and R Mahadevan noted that there was an "extremely grim" situation due to stray dog bites resulting in rabies, especially among children. The decision has sparked protests by animal activists across Delhi.

Manushi Chillar Is Making White Tank Top And Black Pants Look Like A Hot Couture

Manushi Chillar was papped at the Mumbai airport ahead of jetting off to an undisclosed destination. Manushi Chhillar recently charmed everyone with her smile and casual vibe when she was spotted at the Mumbai airport this morning. The Miss World 2017, known for her notable roles in films like Samrat Prithviraj and Maalik, yet again captivated her fans with her minimal yet chic glam. The actress was, however, also seen shielding her skin from the hot and humid weather with the perfect accessories. In a video posted on Instagram, Manushi Chhillar was seen exiting her swanky four-wheeler as she walked towards the entrance of the Mumbai airport. The actress then took a pause and posed for the shutterbugs, flaunting her charming smile. After exuding pure elegance, the Samrat Prithviraj actress expressed her gratitude and bid adieu towards the paps. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Instant Bollywood (@instantbollywood) Manushi Chillar's Latest Travel Mode Is A Pure Glam Version Of Her Chic Style Soon after the video was posted, social media users flooded the comment section by posting appreciative emojis for Manushi's look. For the day, she picked a white tank top teamed with a pair of black-hued loose-fitting palazzo pants. The diva layered her ensemble with a black scarf to shield her skin from the hot and humid weather of the city. For accessories, the Operation Valentine star opted for a sleek leather arm candy, a pair of pink pump shoes and brown sunglasses. She kept her makeup subtle with a pink tint on her lips and left her tresses open and loose to cascade down her shoulders effortlessly. Manushi Chillar's Professional Front Manushi Chillar made her acting debut in 2022 with the role of Sanyogita in the historical drama Samrat Prithviraj. Since then, she has appeared in a number of movies, including The Great Indian Family, Bade Miyan Chote Miyan, Operation Valentine and Maalik. Next, she will be seen in the action thriller movie titled Tehran, directed by Arun Gopalan and produced by Dinesh Vijan, Shobhna Yadav and Sandeep Leyzell. The winner of the Miss World 2017 pageant once revealed whether there are any stereotypes associated with the pageantry field. 'Whatever people have to say, it's their opinion, but for me personally, when I transitioned into films, I didn't feel like I had to do something very different or I had to be a certain way. I dress according to my job. I was a girl doing her job as Ms World, and I am a girl doing my job as an actor now," she told HT, adding, 'The first thing is that when people say that the world of beauty pageant is of glamour, I do not agree with that. It's that one night in 365 days when a girl is crowned, which you see on stage." 'The whole year, what you are doing is not a very glamorous job. I was working with a charity called Beauty With A Purpose, and we were constantly travelling to the remotest areas of different parts of the world, and that's not a very glamorous job. So, technically, what I had to do as a Miss World was not just wear a crown, dress up and get photographed. Probably the media covers that one night, which gets most spoken about," she concluded.

Gangster wives

Readers of Problematics might feel we are dealing with Einstein puzzles less frequently these days, but the fact is that I have been working on many more of them than I used to. An Einstein puzzle appears online in an interactive format in the Games section of the HT website every week. The way one solves those is different; users anonymously click on the correct options without needing to write back. For representational purposes only.(Shutterstock) It is true, however, that Problematics has not had an Einstein puzzle for several weeks now. It's good when so many users go online to solve my puzzles, but nothing can beat the satisfaction a creator derives from the old-fashioned writeback format that we follow in Problematics. The Einstein puzzle below is on the easier side, but do be sure to send in your answers. #Puzzle 155.1 Here is some more information on Mrs Anand, Mrs Bora and Mrs Chopra, whose children we counted last week. Each of them is married to a gangster. Their husbands are called Corleone, Scarface and Big Boy, in no particular order. One of them deals in arms, one in diamonds, and one in bootleg liquor. Their wives work too, or so they think. The connections their husbands enjoy allow them to indulge in whatever pursuit they wish to. One of them sings at functions attended only by gangster friends of her husband. One writes books published privately, finding no readers, and one acts in B-movies financed by her husband. 1. Corleone is Mrs Chopra's brother. 2. Scarface's wife is the actress. 3. The so-called author is married to the bootlegger. 4. Mrs Anand's husband smuggles diamonds. 5. Mrs Bora calls herself a singer. Who is what, and who is married to whom? #Puzzle 155.2 Note the numbers 512 and 4913. Both are perfect cubes (512 = 8³, and 4913 = 17³). An unusual property shared by the two numbers is that their cube roots equal the sum of their respective digits. That is to say, 5 + 1 + 2 = 8 is the cube root of 512, and 4 + 9 + 1 + 3 = 17 is the cube root of 17. Can you find any other numbers with the same property? MAILBOX: LAST WEEK'S SOLVERS #Puzzle 154.1 Solution to the puzzle. Hello Kabir, In the puzzle about children, the speaker must have been either Mrs Anand or Mrs Chopra because she mentioned Mrs Bora as her friend. The number of children is less than 25 but must be unique in the sense that it can immediately inform us of the number of children the speaker has. So the speaker's individual count should uniquely appear more than once for the same total. After examining all combinations, I found that only a total of 19 satisfies this condition. There are two combinations for (A, B, C) when the total is 19 children: (6, 9, 4) and (6, 5, 8). In both cases, Mrs A has 6 children, so she must be the speaker. No such combination satisfying the condition exists when Mrs C is the speaker. Since Mrs B has the fewest children, the correct combination is (6, 5, 8). So you met Mrs Anand who has 6 children (2 girls and 4 boys). Mrs Bora has 5 children (1 girl and 4 boys) and Mrs Chopra has 8 (2 girls and 6 boys). — Dr Sunita Gupta, New Delhi #Puzzle 154.1 Hi Kabir, Here is an attempt to explain the speed-and-distance puzzle without using algebra. Let us imagine that all three persons stop cycling at the exact moment when the mother reaches the destination. Then the daughter (15 kph) will have cycled for 1 hour more than she actually did, overshooting the destination by 15 km. The son (10 kph) will have cycled for 1 hour less than he actually did and fallen short by 10 km. This would mean the daughter has covered 15 + 10 = 25 km more compared to the son. Their relative speed being 15 – 10 = 5 kph, the time taken would be 25/5 = 5 hr. This is the time taken by the mother in the imaginary scenario and also in the actual scenario. Now back to the actual scenario. The time taken by the daughter is 5 – 1 = 4 hr. Therefore, the distance travelled is 15 x 4 = 60 km. This distance is travelled by the mother in 5 hours, so her speed is 60/5 = 12 kph. — Professor Anshul Kumar, New Delhi Notes on # 154.1 For the first puzzle of last week, some readers have given the total number of children as 23, but that cannot be true. Various combinations for (A, B, C) give a total of 23: (6, 9, 8), (6, 13, 4), (6, 5, 12) and (12, 7, 4). Remember, the first statement (grand total) alone was enough to establish the number of children the speaker has. But whether the speaker was Mrs A or Mrs C, the first statement in isolation will not allow you to determine which of the above combinations is true. If the speaker is Mrs A, you don't immediately know if she has 6 children or 12. If Mrs C is speaking, you don't immediately know if she has 8, 4 or 12 children. One reader has given a total of 24, which does not work either. Different combinations such as (3, 13, 8), (9, 11, 4) and (9, 7, 8) mean that the first statement alone is not enough. If the speaker is Mrs A, she might have 3 or 9 children. If Mrs C is speaking, she might have 8 or 4. With 19 children, there are only two combinations, (6, 9, 4) and (6, 5, 8). In both cases, Mrs A has 6 children, meaning she is the speaker. Only a handful of readers have given 19 as the unique answer. Some readers have given 19 as one of two possible answers, but I have counted them as correct too. Solved both puzzles: Dr Sunita Gupta (Delhi), Professor Anshul Kumar (Delhi), YK Munjal (Delhi), Yadvendra Somra (Sonipat), Kanwarjit Singh (Chief Commissioner of Income-tax, retired), Shri Ram Aggarwal (Delhi) Solved #Puzzle 154.2: Vinod Mahajan (New Delhi), Shishir Gupta (Indore), Ajay Ashok (Delhi) Problematics will be back next week. Please send in your replies by Friday noon to problematics@
