Former Bollywood actress and noted humanitarian Somy Ali has stepped forward to support victims of the recent Kashmir violence by donating $1,000 to the PM Cares Fund. The gesture, though modest in monetary terms, carries immense emotional weight, as Ali dedicated the contribution to honor the families affected by the unrest and to stand with India in its fight against terrorism.
In a heartfelt statement, Somy expressed her deep-rooted connection with India, saying, 'India has always been close to my heart. As someone who believes deeply in justice, healing, and sacrifice, I wish to humbly contribute to the PM CARES Fund in support of our brave Jawans who put their lives on the line every day, and to honor the victims and families affected by violence in Kashmir.'
She further emphasized the spirit of global unity, compassion, and humanity in times of crisis. 'This gesture is small compared to their courage. But I hope it reflects the unity of humanity beyond borders, beyond religions, and beyond politics. I stand with India's fight against terrorism and with every family mourning an irreplaceable loss. As the world watches, let India also lead not just with strength, but with compassion,' she added.
Somy, who now leads the US-based NGO No More Tears, continues to use her platform to advocate for human rights and justice. Through her movement Somyism, she champions truth, healing, and empowerment across communities.
The actress also recently shared her vision for empowering girls in Pakistan, highlighting the potential of innovation and education. 'Imagine girls from Lahore, Rawalpindi, and Hyderabad becoming AI analysts, UX designers, and film editors. Women are already leading change in countries like Bangladesh, Kenya, and Vietnam. Why not Pakistan?' Ali's words and actions echo a call for unity, progress, and hope in regions affected by violence and inequality.

Avaam, a Delhi-based Pop Band, Debuts with 'Mehzabeen' and announces Monthly Releases

VMPL New Delhi [India], July 25: In the ever-growing sea of music, it's rare to stumble upon a sound that doesn't just entertain but genuinely speaks. That's exactly what Delhi-based pop band Avaam is setting out to do. With the release of their deeply emotional debut single 'Mehzabeen', Avaam has made a quietly powerful entrance into the Indian indie music space -- and they're not stopping there. Crafted with heartfelt intention, Mehzabeen is more than just a song; it's a feeling. The music video carries the same depth -- delicate, poetic, and honest. From the very first note, Avaam makes it clear they're here not just to play music, but to share stories. Rooted in years of collective musical experience, the band comprises passionate artists who've spent over a decade living and breathing music. Each member brings a distinct influence to the table -- from the grit of rock to the subtlety of folk, the experimental edge of electronica, and the timeless soul of classic pop. Their sound doesn't fit neatly into a box, and that's exactly the point. "Our music reflects who we are -- constantly evolving and not bound by any one style," shares Avaam , "Mehzabeen is just the beginning. Each month, we'll be releasing a new song -- a new emotion, a new chapter." In a world that thrives on instant hits and overnight fame, Avaam is taking the long road -- the honest road. By promising a new original track every month, they're not just offering consistency; they're offering companionship. A song for each season of your heart. And it's this human touch -- this sincerity in both sound and storytelling -- that makes Avaam feel less like a new band and more like an old friend you're just now getting to know. Mehzabeen is now streaming on all major platforms, and the official video -- beautifully raw and resonant -- is live on YouTube. This is just the first step in what promises to be a heartfelt journey through sound.
