Alhamdulillah, after a long and intense labour, we welcomed our baby through a safe, natural birth. A story that deserves to be told. A journey that's etched in our hearts forever. Aamir, you are truly a blessing to our entire family. We love you beyond words… and your Heera Bhaiya is overjoyed! He's been counting the days to hold your tiny hand and play by your side. Our whole family is proud of you, little one, for the strength, the fight, and the love you've brought with you.

From mass communication to mass influence: How Uorfi Javed's education fuelled her rise among India's youth
How Uorfi Javed's education fueled her rise among India's youth From a media student in Lucknow to the winner of the Indian edition of The Traitors , Uorfi Javed has built a career that defies convention. Known for her daring fashion choices and viral DIY outfits, she recently took audiences by surprise by outsmarting fellow contestants and emerging victorious in the high-stakes reality show. Her win marked a new phase in her public image—one that showcased strategy, emotional intelligence, and resilience. But long before the spotlight, Uorfi was a student of mass communication, quietly building the tools she would later use to shape her own narrative. Her journey is a reminder that education can be a powerful launchpad—even for careers that break all traditional moulds. Rooted in Lucknow, raised by resilience Uorfi Javed was born on 15 October 1994 in Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh. She attended City Montessori School, one of the city's best-known private institutions. While her education offered structure, her home life was marked by instability. She has spoken openly about the abuse she and her siblings faced from their father, which eventually led her and her sisters to leave home and move to Delhi. This early phase of struggle shaped her self-reliance and drive to create her own path. How mass communication shaped Uorfi's voice After school, Uorfi enrolled at Amity University, Lucknow, to study mass communication. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 5 Books Warren Buffett Wants You to Read In 2025 Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo The subject gave her a foundation in media, communication theory, and public engagement. Unlike many of her peers who pursued journalism or advertising, Uorfi used her academic grounding to understand the power of visibility. Her education became a quiet but effective tool, helping her manage the media narrative around her—even when controversy surrounded her fashion choices. From fashion intern to internet sensation While in Delhi, Uorfi interned briefly at a fashion designer's studio, which sparked her interest in style as self-expression. Her national breakthrough came during her stint on Bigg Boss OTT , where she wore a garbage bag dress that went viral. It was the first of many such fashion statements—outfits made from flowers, pins, chains, and watches—that grabbed attention and polarised public opinion. Her work may appear provocative, but it reflects careful thought, timing, and a keen awareness of visual storytelling. From social media to mainstream recognition With over five million followers on Instagram and more than 200,000 on X, Uorfi has become one of India's most-followed and searched public figures. In 2022, she ranked ahead of several Bollywood celebrities in Google's list of most-searched Asians. In 2025, GQ India named her one of the '35 Most Influential Young Indians,' recognising her ability to challenge norms and set her own agenda in a crowded media landscape.

Joe Burrow goes viral after fans spot him walking alone in Beverly Hills looking ‘extremely sad'
Hendrickson's contract standoff puts pressure on Burrow and Bengals (Image via: Getty Images) NFL fans are used to seeing Joe Burrow light up stadiums with his calm swagger and ice-cold confidence. But this time, the Bengals quarterback is going viral for something a little more human. A new video of Burrow strolling through Beverly Hills, no shades, no smile, no crew has fans spiraling with concern, jokes, and some classic overthinking. Did he just get bad news? Is he reflecting on the Bengals' season? Or was it just a quiet moment caught in the wrong light? Joe Burrow looked downcast walking alone in Beverly Hills, and fans are genuinely concerned The moment blew up online when a fan posted a clip with the words 'I can't tell if i just spotted Joe Burrow walking in Bevrely Hills' In the short video, Burrow can be seen casually walking down the street with his head lowered and hands in his pockets. No entourage, no smile, just vibes. Other NFL pages like MLFootball and WhistleSports reposted it, and the internet instantly latched onto the melancholy energy. While nothing dramatic happens in the video, the way Burrow quietly moved through the LA streets had fans raising eyebrows and asking, 'Is he okay?' Fans flooded social media with reactions, theories, and a whole lot of memes As expected, NFL Twitter did its thing. Some fans reacted with sincere worry: A username E.D.N commented, 'Bro hasn't played football since early January because his team sucks. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 새로 나온 '실비보험' 최적가 가입추천!

Another user commented, 'That's that break up walk I know it to well' Fans worry as Joe Burrow looks downcast while walking solo in Los Angeles. X Basically, fans turned a 15-second clip into a whole narrative. Because when you're a QB as beloved (and good-looking) as Burrow, even your casual strolls become content. Interestingly, the viral walk comes not long after a separate video showed Burrow being harassed by a Cleveland Browns fan yelling 'The Browns own you!' while he stayed cool and kept walking. Some think this might've added to his off-day vibes, though it's unclear if the two clips were even taken the same day. There's no sign that anything major is going on. No reports of injuries. No cryptic posts. Just two very public moments that fans are connecting into a larger emotional saga because that's the internet. Despite the internet spiraling, there's been no official word from Burrow or the Bengals. No cryptic Instagram stories. No tweet threads. Just a man taking a walk and maybe thinking a little deeper than usual.
