Arushi Paul's latest EP, Home, is all about embracing the change
Bengaluru-based singer-songwriter Arushi Paul's recently released EP Home is a heartfelt exploration of growth, transition, and self-discovery. Drawing from her own experiences of relocating to a new city as an 18-year-old, her EP delves into the complexities of leaving behind the familiar and stepping into the unknown. Home also reflects her own transition from high school to college, blending nostalgia into melodies that resonate deeply. 'The first song in the EP, 'Get Away' captures the initial wave of self-doubt about leaving a place you have known all your life. It reflects on questions we ask ourselves, such as 'will I succeed?' or 'will I like it there?'' says Arushi, who moved from her home in Bengaluru to pursue higher studies. The second song, 'Mess it Up', is about getting emotionally ready for the next chapter of life in a different city, 'It is about gradually gaining the confidence with regard to the move,' she says. The third and fourth songs are about making peace with the decision, leaving, and adjusting to the change. Talking about her journey into music, Arushi says, 'I have been singing for as long as I can remember, and I have been told that I started singing soon after I began talking.' 'My professional training began when I was 12 years old, and that is when I truly inculcated a love for singing. My music teacher, Richard Andrew Dudley has played a huge part in this journey, in terms of pushing me to try and do more; that has transcended into what I am doing now.' Arushi has also been a performing artiste with MOKSHA - All Stars, a band founded by Richard , who is also the producer and composer of the EP. Talking about her experience of juggling academics and music, Arushi says, 'For me, things were a bit difficult in the 10th and 12th grades — with studies, performing and working on my music. I believe the key is to find a balance; if you enjoy what you are doing, balancing it is not difficult.' 'My parents have been quite supportive from the beginning, they understand that this is what I want to do, and that is also why I have been able to push myself in terms of making my own music,' says Arushi. Her music blends influences ranging from Cold Play and Ed Sheeran to Billie Eilish and Johnny Orlando. Home is the collaborative effort with Richard as producer and composer, Aadarsh Subramanium in arrangements and programming, and Jaime Dudley on the drums and percussion.

Indian cricketer Deepti Sharma accuses teammate Arushi Goel of Rs 25 lakh fraud, theft
According to police, Arushi, along with her parents—mother Manju and father Thanchand—exploited this friendship to transfer Rs 25 lakh to their accounts under various pretexts. Arushi, a member of the North Central Railway cricket team who is posted as a junior clerk at Agra Cantt Railway Station, is an old friend of Deepti. Agra: Indian women's cricket team player and Uttar Pradesh Police officer Deepti Sharma has accused fellow cricketer Arushi Goel of allegedly cheating her of Rs 25 lakh, and breaking into her flat and stealing cash, jewellery and foreign currency. Police filed an FIR following a complaint by Deepti's brother Sumit at Agra's Sadar police station on Thursday. Inspector Vijay Vikram Singh told ThePrint that a case had been registered against Arushi and her parents for theft and financial fraud. 'An investigation is underway based on CCTV footage and other evidence. Strict action will be taken against the culprits,' he said. According to the complaint, when Deepti demanded her money back, the accused first made excuses and then started misbehaving with her. She then barred Goyal from coming to her flat, where Arushi had earlier lived as a housemate. However, Arushi entered the house secretly on 22 April and CCTV footage showed her opening the door and leaving with about $2,500, gold jewellery and cash. On 23 April, Arushi claimed that her belongings were still in the flat, but when Deepti's brother reached there, the key wouldn't work. It was found that the lock had been changed. 'I treated Arushi like my sister. With the support of her family, she has cheated me. There is evidence against her and I have full faith in the law,' Deepti told the media. She added that she didn't want to talk to the accused anymore and considered legal action the only option. Arushi denied the allegations. 'I have family relations with Deepti. If there has been any transaction, it must have been done with mutual consent,' she told the media. 'I want to talk to Deepti face-to-face on all the allegations. My image is being maligned in the media.' The cricketer said she would challenge the case in court and prove her innocence.

Their unconditional love and unwavering support can help us sail through the hardest of times. Even the greatest and the most powerful leaders owe it to their mothers for their success. On Mother's Day today, we feature mother and daughter duos from all walks of life, from a cultural revivalist to a physician and a social activist- the uber-cool mommies swapped their wardrobes with their daughters in a special shoot for us and struck a pose together. Social activist and educator Manisha Bhatia (47) posed with her 23-year-old daughter Saanvi, as the duo exchanged outfits—and emotions. While Manisha stepped into a blue jumpsuit from Saanvi's wardrobe, Saanvi glowed in her mother's elegant saree. 'You are my world,' says Manisha. 'I hope you feel the wonder of being me, as I glimpse the joy of being you. We swap more than clothes sometimes — we swap worlds to understand each other better.' Ahmedabad-based food consultant Sania Naqvi (33) remembers being in awe of her mother, 60-year-old educator Samina Naqvi, who co-founded Sanchaari, a cultural and literary society in Prayagraj. 'From my earliest memories, I've admired my mother in crisp cotton sarees. I borrowed one of her classic Gadwal sarees and tried to be more like her for a day,' shares Sania. Though the two couldn't shoot together, Sania posed in her mother's saree at home, while Samina embraced her daughter's go-to look—a denim-on-denim ensemble.
