'Ishq Vishk' fame and former MTV host Shenaz Treasury says 'I pay more rent for my one bedroom apartment in Mumbai than my friend pays for her villa in Bali,' sparks online debate
The actress said in the video, 'I pay more rent for my one bedroom apartment in Mumbai than my friend pays for her villa in Bali.' read more 'Ishq Vishk' fame and former MTV host Shenaz Treasury is now a successful and popular travel blogger and influencer on Instagram. Her recent video of why people are moving to Bali has sparked online debate. The actress said in the video, 'I pay more rent for my one bedroom apartment in Mumbai than my friend pays for her villa in Bali.' STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD She captioned it really long and said: 'Why are so many people moving to Bali? 1. Cost of Living vs. Lifestyle • You can live in a villa with a pool for the same price (or less) than a 1BHK in Mumbai, London, or LA. • Meals, massages, and transport are affordable — but the quality of life feels high. 2. Remote Work Heaven • Strong expat community, co-working spaces, fast Wi-Fi (especially in Canggu & Ubud). • Bali has become a global hub for entrepreneurs and digital creators who can work from anywhere. 3. Wellness Capital • Yoga, healthy cafés, sound healing, retreats — Bali is basically a wellness playground. • People burnt out by city life often move here to slow down and 'heal.' 4. Creative Energy • The vibe is laid-back, open-minded, and creative. Everyone's working on something — a brand, a book, a business. • You're surrounded by people who left the 9-5 to build their dream life. 5. Nature + Spirituality • Beaches, waterfalls, rice terraces, volcanoes — and a deeply spiritual culture. • Bali's Hindu roots mean temples, rituals, offerings — a constant reminder to pause and connect. 6. Visa Options • Indonesia is offering longer stay digital nomad visas, making it easier for foreigners to settle for months or even years. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD 7. Social Life + Dating • It's easy to meet people from around the world — whether you're at a beach club, a breathwork class, or a networking brunch. • A mix of fun, flirtation, and freedom. Yes, I have been thinking about it but don't wanna leave my parents! I've lived out of India for half their life and now that they are older I wanna be around. What about you?!!' What netizens are saying These are the comments that are coming in: Well, I can get triple times size of Home in my Hometown with half of this cost ! How is it comparable? Its a wrong compare. There are equally cheaper places in other good places in India. Bhai we work offline… so whatever the rent or cost of living.. we have ti stay in Mumbai… it's unfair to compare 2 totally different cities. How about Tokyo, new York etc. Omg I need to move to Bali - paying so much rent and just waking up to horns and pollution here. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD

Dolly Parton releases new song honouring late husband Carl Thomas Dean
Dolly Parton offered an emotional tribute to her late husband, Carl Thomas Dean, who died earlier this week. The legendary country artist released a new song titled, If You Hadn't Been There, in an Instagram post on Friday. "I fell in love with Carl Dean when I was 18 years old," Parton wrote. "We have spent 60 precious and meaningful years together. Like all great love stories, they never end. They live on in memory and song. He will always be the star of my life story, and I dedicate this song to him."The pair were together for six decades before he died on Monday aged 82. Her voice trembles as she sings the new song, "If you hadn't been there / Where would I be? / Without your trust, love, and belief". "You made me drеam / More than I dared," she continues. "And I wouldn't be hеre / If you hadn't been there."The cover of the track includes an old photo showing Parton with her arms wrapped around Dean. Parton, 79, expressed her gratitude for fans' support after her husband's death. "This is a love note to family, friends, and fans," she wrote on Instagram on Thursday. "Thank you for all the messages, cards, and flowers that you've sent to pay your respects for the loss of my beloved husband Carl. I can't reach out personally to each of you but just know it has meant the world to me. He is in God's arms now and I am okay with that. I will always love you."The singer, known for songs such as 9-5 and Jolene, met Dean outside a laundromat the first day she arrived in Nashville as an 18-year-old aspiring singer. "I was surprised and delighted that while he talked to me, he looked at my face (a rare thing for me)," Parton said when recalling their first meeting. "He seemed to be genuinely interested in finding out who I was and what I was about."Two years later, in 1966, the pair married. They lived a private life - Dean was rarely seen in public - and did not have children together.

Dolly Parton shares frank reason behind launch of her new musical
Dolly Parton's fascinating and incredible life story is officially coming to Broadway, as the country music legend announced the world premiere of Dolly: An Original Musical. The 'Jolene' star, 79, told fans this week that her long-awaited musical will have its first production in her home state of Tennessee, as she revealed the moving reason why she was keen to stage it this year. Speaking at a press conference in Nashville on Tuesday (28 January), she remarked: 'Well, I ain't getting no younger, but as I tell my husband [Carl Thomas Dean], I ain't getting no older either.' Parton, who was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame in 1999, continued: 'I've outlived so many plastic surgeons. But I actually have always wanted to do my life story as a musical. 'And I just thought that I wanted to see it done while I'm still around, to be able to oversee it and make sure that it's done properly in a way that I would want to see it, rather than to wait 'til I'm gone and let somebody else decide how they think it should be done.' Previews of Dolly: An Original Musical will begin on 18 July, with a limited 8-17 August run taking place at Belmont University's Fisher Center for the Performing Arts in Nashville. The show will tell the story of how Parton went from one of 12 children raised in a one-room cabin in the Smoky Mountains to one of the world's most successful stars, known as much for her towering blonde perm and jewel-encrusted outfits as for hit songs such as '9-5' and 'I Will Always Love You'. Parton already has a Tony Award nomination for composing the songs to her Broadway musical 9-5, which ran in Manhattan in 2009. A decade later, 9 to 5 was revamped for London's West End, where it opened in 2019 before ending a year later. As well as producing her new show, she has co-written the book with Emmy-winning producer Maria S Schlatter along with a number of original songs. In November last year she released a new album, Smoky Mountain DNA: Family, Faith and Fables, which explored the legacy of the Partons and the Owens (her maternal family) through performances with five generations of family members. 'My grandpa used to say when I got famous, he said, 'Well, she came out crying in the key of D,'' she told The Associated Press last year. 'I think we all did.' 'We're kind of like the Carter family. We go back generations,' she said of her heritage, referring to how the Partons are widely considered the first family of country music. 'I would imagine this will be my favorite album,' she continued. 'This really involves, you know, my grandmas and my grandpas, my uncles and my aunts and all the people going all the way back that had the biggest influence on my life. The ones that I remember from being little, and it even goes on farther back from there.' Tickets for Dolly: An Original Musical are on sale now.
