City-wide carnival planned across Vijayawada for Dasara
Vijayawada: In a major move to elevate Dasara celebrations in the city, the NTR district administration has unveiled plans to organise the Vijayawada carnival, a city-wide annual festival that will coincide with the traditional Kanaka Durga Navaratri festivities. Until now, Dasara in Vijayawada was largely centred on the Indrakiladri hill and the famous Kanaka Durga temple. However, this year, the celebrations are set to expand across the city, turning Vijayawada into a hub of festive activity. With just 60 days remaining for the festival, officials have ramped up preparations. The carnival will feature daily processions and cultural programmes along Bandar Road, aiming to involve people from all walks of life. A major attraction will be helicopter rides from the Indira Gandhi Municipal Stadium, giving visitors a bird's-eye view of the city and its festive glow. Adding to the excitement, the administration is also planning a drone light show every evening at Punnami Ghat, promising a spectacular visual display. Meanwhile, the Krishna district industrial and agricultural exhibition society will host a ten-day film-themed cultural extravaganza at its Gollapudi grounds. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like American Investor Warren Buffett Recommends: 5 Books For Turning Your Life Around Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo The programme will include free movie screenings, music concerts, audio launch events, and celebrations of Telugu cinema.

This Friendship's Day, actors take a heartfelt walk down memory lane, sharing how bonds formed on set blossomed into lifelong friendships. From spiritual connections to unwavering support through personal trials, these stories show that the strongest friendships often grow in the most unexpected places. These include Priyamvada Kant (Latika, Gharwali Pedwali), Sapna Sikarwar (Bimlesh, Happu Ki Ultan Paltan), and Shubhangi Atre (Angoori Bhabhi, Bhabiji Ghar Par Hai). Priyamvada Kant, aka Latika from Gharwali Pedwali, shares, 'I share a very special bond with Krishna Bhardwaj . We first met eight years ago while working on a show together, and since then, we have remained in constant touch. What makes our friendship unique is the deep spiritual connection we share. Outwardly, we are both hyper and fun-loving, but at heart, we are calm and grounded. That inner stillness is what we truly bond over. Amidst all the chaos and drama on set, we always found comfort in each other's presence. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Are you ready to conquer a planet?

' Sapna Sikarwar, aka Bimlesh from Happu Ki Ultan Paltan, shares, 'Geetanjali and I connected during a shoot years ago, and our bond slowly grew from scene partners to soul sisters. We are both strong-headed, yet we balance each other perfectly. What I love most about her is her compassion. Even in her busiest moments, she thinks of others. Once, I was facing a deeply personal challenge, and she dropped everything to be by my side. She didn't just comfort me; she lifted me with strength. The best part is now we are working on the same show and playing sisters onscreen in Happu Ki Ultan Paltan. Ours is a friendship where even silence speaks volumes.

Without hesitation, she said, 'Stay right there, I'm coming,' and took me home. That gesture gave me not just shelter but strength. Megha's honesty and support are her most beautiful traits. She tells you what you need to hear, not just what you want to hear. With her, I didn't just find a friend—I found a sister for life.' Priyamvada Kant Reflects on 15-Year Journey
