China's Temu sends stickers to Indian mom who thought she ordered home essentials

A desi mum who thought she'd scored a great deal on home essentials was left equal parts shocked and amused when Temu delivered stickers of the items she'd ordered — instead of the actual products. Dubai-based Indian-origin woman Suchita Ojha shared an Instagram video of her mother's hilarious mix-up, which has left thousands of people in splits. Ojha said her mother is 'obsessed with Temu' - the online marketplace launched by PDD Holdings, the parent company of China's Pinduoduo. Temu connects consumers directly with manufacturers and wholesalers, primarily based in China, allowing them to buy goods at a discount. Sometimes, however, the discounts can lead to confusion - as Ojha's mother discovered when she ordered what she thought was a vacuum cleaner and cooking utensils at a great price. She missed the product description which explained that Temu is selling stickers of the products, not the products themselves. Ojha's video captures the hilarity that ensued when she opened her packages and realised that she'd received stickers. A post shared by Suchita Ojha (@suchiojha) 'Context: She didn't even read that it was stickers, she just saw the picture and ordered randomly,' the Dubai-based woman wrote on Instagram, explaining that her mother did not read the product description. When reached out to Temu for a response, the company said: 'We always encourage users to read product descriptions and reviews carefully so their purchases match what they're looking for. Mixups like this happen, and we hope the user gives Temu another try!' The Instagram Reel has gone viral with over 2.2 million views and a ton of comments. Viewers on Instagram were also much amused by the mix-up. 'The description literally says stickers. But this is so funny,' read one comment under the video. 'Didn't know we could get trauma from Temu,' another person joked. 'AED 5!? itna paisa mein itna hi milega,' a third quipped.

So far, only one person, a 21-year-old jewellery maker, has approached the GRP with a complaint. Investigators have appealed to anyone who may have been similarly robbed to come forward and lodge complaints. The complainant, who lives in the western suburbs, had created a profile on a dating app. He matched with one of the accused, Anubhav Ojha (19), who had created a profile on the app to scout for targets.

Ex-India Star Lauds GT Coach Ashish Nehra For Backing Pacer Prasidh Krishna

Former India spinner and JioStar expert Pragyan Ojha has heaped praise on Gujarat Titans (GT) seamer Prasidh Krishna for his sharp spells and consistent impact this Indian Premier League (IPL) season, especially highlighting the support system behind the fast bowler's rise. Krishna delivered a match-winning spell of 2/19 in four overs as Gujarat Titans defeated Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) by 38 runs in Ahmedabad. The victory propelled GT to the second spot on the IPL 2025 points table. Speaking on JioHotstar, Ojha applauded Krishna's execution and composure, attributing much of his success to the clarity in his bowling and the environment created by the team leadership. "I think he's been brilliant so far. What I love about him is the clarity he has in his bowling," said Ojha. "He's also got strong backing from his captain and coach Ashish Nehra. If you've heard Nehra speak, he always emphasizes bowling hard lengths--and Prasidh thrives on that," he added. Ojha further underlined the confidence that comes with having a well-defined role and the right encouragement. "When you're backed for your strengths, everything becomes easier. Once he gets those early wickets, the momentum carries forward. And that's exactly what he's done consistently," he added. With Krishna finding rhythm at a crucial juncture of the tournament, Gujarat Titans will be hoping their strike pacer continues to fire as the playoff race heats up. Coming to the fixture, GT maintained its flawless record of defending a 200-plus target in their home den. Gujarat's 38-run triumph against the misfiring Sunrisers was laid by an early blitzkrieg from Sudharsan (48) and Gill (76), topped up by Buttler's rollicking 64(37). SRH's pursuit of 225 turned into a massacre as Gujarat hunted in packs to leave Hyderabad dwindling. While Sunrisers went for runs with gallantry, wickets came at regular intervals, sending Hyderabad on the brink of exit after they surrendered to a 38-run defeat.
