The clip drew praise from viewers, who welcomed the joyful and creative way of expressing faith and promoting vocations.
'Faith with lightness is so wonderful!' a YouTube account user commented.

Youth Jubilee in Rome: Pilgrims arrive to pray with Relic of Blessed Carlo Acutis ahead of historic Papal events

Thousands of young pilgrims arrived in the Eternal City for the much-anticipated Youth Jubilee 2025, a weeklong gathering filled with prayer, reconciliation, and personal encounters with Pope Leo XIV. Among the spiritual highlights was the rare opportunity to venerate a first-class relic of Blessed Carlo Acutis—the heart of the young computer whiz who captured the world's attention for his devotion to the Eucharist before his death at just 15 years old. Acutis Center – San Marcello Church, Via del Corso, Rome, Italy Just blocks from St. Peter's Square, the Church of San Marcello al Corso was transformed into the 'Blessed Carlo Acutis Center.' Pilgrims gathered to pray, submit written intentions destined for Acutis' tomb in Assisi, and participate in daily Eucharistic adoration from 3:30 to 5:00 p.m. featuring his sacred relic. Evening programs included live music, personal testimonies, and collective prayer sessions. 15-year-old Carlo Acutis will become first millennial Saint in September On July 29, the center unveiled a 1,000-piece mosaic portrait of Acutis, crafted by artist Johnny Vrba. An exhibit of Eucharistic miracles, which Acutis himself painstakingly cataloged before his death, was also on display throughout the event. The Youth Jubilee formed part of the broader Holy Year 2025 celebration, a global Catholic initiative featuring religious, cultural, and social events for various sectors of the Church and society. As tents rose once again on the grounds of Tor Vergata, where millions had gathered for World Youth Day in 2000, a new generation of young Catholics stepped forward to make their mark. United in faith, inspired by the life of Blessed Carlo Acutis, and moved by Pope Leo XIV's call for peace, hope, and renewal, they created a powerful witness of faith for today's world.

Aamir Khan to release 'Sitaare Zameen Par' on YouTube

Aamir Khan has made an unusual move by choosing to release his latest sports drama Sitaare Zameen Par directly on YouTube after its run in theatres. The film will be available from August 1 on YouTube Movies on demand at Rs 100 (Dh4.5 approximately) and will skip other digital platforms. The approach aims to make the film accessible to people, especially those who do not have access to theatres or streaming services. It will also be available in 38 other countries, including the US, UK, and Australia, with prices suited to local markets. "For the past 15 years, I have been struggling with the challenge of how to reach audiences who do not have geographical access to theatres, or those who are unable to make it to theatres for various reasons," Khan, who also produced the film, said in a statement. "With our government bringing in UPI and India becoming number one in the world in electronic payments, with internet penetration in India having grown dramatically and growing every day, and with YouTube being on most devices, we can finally reach vast sections of people in India, and a significant part of the world." The release will come with subtitles and dubbed versions in several languages to cater to wider audiences. Sitaare Zameen Par is a sequel to the 2007 blockbuster Taare Zameen Par. In the sports drama, Aamir plays the role of a basketball coach who is tasked with training a group of neurodivergent children. It also stars Genelia Deshmukh. The film, directed by RS Prasanna, hit theatres on June 20.
