Meta apologises forfaulty translation
Bengaluru: Days after its auto-translation tool erroneously declared CM Siddaramaiah as deceased in a condolence message, social media giant Meta issued an apology and claimed to have fixed the glitch. "We fixed an issue that briefly caused this inaccurate Kannada translation. We apologise that this happened," a Meta spokesperson said Thursday, following a sharp backlash from the CM and his office. The controversy erupted after the CM's Office posted a condolence message in Kannada on Facebook and Instagram, mourning the death of veteran actress B Sarojadevi. However, the English auto-translation read:"CM Siddaramaiah passed away yesterday, a multilingual star, senior actress B. Took darshan of Sarojadeviʼs earthly body and paid his last respects."

The Bigg Boss 17 alum took to social media to post two memorable photos, one from Priyanka's wedding to Nick Jonas, and another that tugged at the heartstrings: a candid childhood photo featuring the Chopra cousins and their family. Mannara Chopra calls Priyanka a blessing in birthday tribute Mannara extended her warm wishes by calling Priyanka a blessing and writing, 'Happy Birthday Mimi Didi. God bless you.'

The second photo, previously unseen, captured a tender moment from their childhood, reflecting the close-knit bond shared by the Chopra family. Check out her post here: The relaxed photo from the past, which illustrated childhood and a positive mood, caused fans to greatly react and most of them commented on the sincerity of the act. Indeed, it was also a proof of the strong bonds the Chopra family still share, even though the members are moving solo through industries and continents. Personal loss According to Pinkvilla, Mannara's tribute came just weeks after the passing of her father, Raman Rai Handa, on June 16 in Delhi. He was also the uncle of Priyanka and Parineeti Chopra. Mannara resumed work shortly after the loss, sharing her gratitude with followers and expressing her intent to carry forward her father's strength. Priyanka, who couldn't attend the funeral due to overseas commitments, paid tribute to her uncle via Instagram Stories, writing, 'You'll always be in our hearts. Rest easy, Raman uncle (fufaji). Om Shanti.' Mannara continues to build her career across formats According to the Hindustan Times, not just in reality-tv shows, but also in unfiltered persona during her stay in Bigg Boss 17, Mannara caught eye of the whole nation and directly touched the hearts of the audience. The Indian actress was also a part of the team of Laughter Chefs 2, in which she and comedian Sudesh Lehri were the best couple before quitting the show due to her prior engagements during the middle of the season. Well, Mannara has now touched down with her talent in the film industries of Hindi, Telugu, Tamil and Kannada and is still quite active in her television and digital roles. Mannara may have dropped the casual hint of the release of her new projects even if the details are not completely clear, one of the projects being a regional thriller and a fashion-based reality series soon.
