How do you
feel about
the death of
democracy?
What this country built in
70 years was destroyed
in 8 years. There is no
democracy in India today!
There is a dictatorship
of 4 people in India. We
want to raise the issue of
inflation, unemployment
etc. We want to discuss
the society being divided.
We (Opposition) are not
allowed to speak in Parl.
We are arrested on the

courage in the current
environment.

Covid pandamic for the
last two years. Now that
thesituationhasbecome
normal across the coun-
try
, the number of air
travellersremainslowat
the Jaipur airport. The
numbers are running
low due to increased air-
fares and inflation.
The situation is wor-
rying because in the
last 3 months every
time there is a fall in the
passenger load.
These days, on an av-
erage only 10,000 pas-
sengers are traveling
from Jaipur airport
every day. Whereas in
winter, this figure was
more than 15,000. In
view of the reduction in
passenger load, airlines
like SpiceJet and Air
Asia as well as IndiGo
are now canceling
flights from Jaipur air-
port. On an average 4 to
5 flights are getting
canceled daily
.
Due to lack of passen-
ger load, air connectiv-
ity of some cities from
Jaipur airport has also
been stopped. In winter,
flights were available
from Jaipur airport to
26 cities of the country,
whereas now this figure

First India Bureau
Jaipur: The Constitu-
tion (Amendment) Bill-
2022 was introduced by
Rajsamand MP Diya Ku-
mariintheLokSabhaon
Friday
. By amending the
Eighth Schedule of the
Constitution, she urged
for the inclusion of the
Rajasthani language.
“Despite being very
rich in tradition, this
language has been ne-
glected at the national
level, which is threaten-
ing its existence. Ra-
jasthani language has
been recognised as a
separatelanguagebySa-
hitya Akademi and Uni-
versity Grants Commis-
sion. This language is
also being taught in the
Rajasthan State Board
of Secondary Educa-
tion. Despite this, the
Rajasthanilanguagehas
not yet been given na-
tional recognition,” the
Minister informed.
The proficient stu-
dents of this language
are unable to use it effi-
ciently
. New employ-
ment opportunities will
also arise if the Ra-
jasthani language is in-

SPIRITUAL SPEAK
Those who cling to perceptions and views
wander the world offending people.
—Buddha
he Congress is
at the forefront
of protests
against the gov-
ernment. Even
on Friday its leaders and
workers donned black
cloth and raised slogans
against inflation and GST
which is hurting the poor.
As the Congress intensi-
fied its protests, dramatic
scenes were witnessed in
the national capital. Rahul
Gandhi was detained by
the police and his sister
Priyanka Gandhi Vadra,
who resisted her deten-
tion, was dragged and put
into a police vehicle for
breaking a barricade. Sev-
eral other party workers
were also detained. The
noticeable part was that
despite being in a weak
state, the party was able to
put up a massive show.
Regional outfits in Uttar
Pradesh like the Samajwa-
di Party and the Bahujan
Samaj Party
, which should
havealsotakentothestreet
on inflation and GST, have
stayed put inside their cosy
rooms. The reason could
have been either the fear of
the Enforcement Directo-
rate or they simply avoided
being seen as supporting
the Congress even if it was
for a genuine cause.
The Congress has re-
cently been protesting
against ED’s notices to its
president Sonia Gandhi
and Rahul Gandhi in the
National Herald case. Pro-
tests then followed each
time the two leaders were
summoned for question-
ing. On Thursday the ED
mandated Mallikarjun
Kharge, Leader of Opposi-
tion in the Rajya Sabha, to
be present in the Young In-
dianoffice,whentheHouse
was in session. As Friday’s
protests were staged al-
most in continuation of the
previous ones it appears
that the party is fearing the
worst in the National Her-
ald case and wants to keep
up the pressure.

TOP TWEETS
A previous study reported
that a single shot of the
Jynneos vaccine protected
monkeys infected with
monkeypox and that this
protection lasted for at least
two years. If this holds up in
the real world, it would
support withholding second
doses in favor of immunizing
more Americans. This would
be key as many health
experts expect the virus to
continue spreading,
furthering increasing
demand of the vaccine
onkeypox isn’t going to be
the next Covid-19. But
with the outbreak having
bloomed to thousands of
infections, with cases in
nearly every state, on Au-
gust 4, 2022, the US de-
clared monkeypox a na-
tional public health emer-
gency. One reason health
experts did not expect
monkeypox to become so
widespread is that the US
had previously approved
two vaccines for the virus.
WHAT ARE THE AVAILABLE
MONKEYPOX VACCINES?
Two vaccines are current-
ly approved in the U.S. that
can provide protection
against monkeypox, the
Jynneos vaccine – known
as Imvamune/Imvanex in
Europe – and ACAM2000,
an older smallpox vaccine.
The Jynneos vaccine is
produced by Bavarian
Nordic, a small company
in Denmark. The vaccine
is for the prevention of
smallpox and monkeypox
disease in adults ages 18
and older who are at high
risk for infection with ei-
ther virus. It was approved
in Europe in 2013 and by
the U.S. Food and Drug Ad-
ministration in 2019.
The Jynneos vaccine is
given in two doses four
weeks apart and contains
a live vaccinia virus. Vac-
cinia normally infects cat-
tle and is a type of poxvi-
rus, a family of viruses
that includes smallpox
and monkeypox. The virus
in this vaccine has been
crippled – or attenuated –
so that it is no longer able
to replicate in cells.
This vaccine is good at
protecting those who are at
high risk for monkeypox
fromgettinginfectedbefore
exposure and can also less-
en the severity of disease
post-infection.Itiseffective
against smallpox as well as
monkeypox. Until the re-
cent monkeypox outbreak,
this vaccine was primarily
given to health care work-
ers or people who have had
confirmed or suspected
monkeypox exposure.
The U.S. government
has over 200 million doses
of ACAM2000 stockpiled
in case of a biological
weapon attack of small-
pox. But despite the ade-
quate supply of the vac-
cine, ACAM2000 is not be-
ing used to vaccinate
against monkeypox be-
cause of the risk of seri-
ous adverse side effects.
For now, only designated
U.S. military personnel
and laboratory research-
ers who work with certain
poxviruses may receive
this vaccine.
HOW EFFECTIVE ARE
THESE VACCINES?
According to the U.S. Cent-
ers for Disease Control,
there is not yet any data
available on the effective-
ness of either vaccine in
the current outbreak of
monkeypox. But there is
older data available from
animal studies, clinical tri-
als and studies in Africa.
A number of clinical tri-
als done during the approv-
al process for the Jynneos
vaccine show that when
giventoaperson,ittriggers
a strong antibody response
on par with the ACAM2000
vaccine. An additional
study done in nonhuman
primates showed that vac-
cinated animals that were
infected with monkeypox
survived80%to100%of the
time,comparedwithzeroto
40% survival in unvacci-
nated animals.
Another use of the Jyn-
neos vaccine is as a post-
exposure prophylaxis, or
PEP, meaning the vaccine
can be effective even when
given after exposure to the
virus. Because the monk-
eypox virus incubates in a
person’s body for six to 14
days, the body of someone
who gets the Jynneos vac-
cine shortly after being
exposed will produce anti-
bodies that can help fight
off infection and protect
against a serious monkey-
pox case.
The ACAM2000 data is
older and less precise but
shows strong protection.
Researchers tested the vac-
cine during an outbreak of
monkeypox in central Af-
rica in the 1980s. Although
the study was small and
didn’t directly test vaccine
efficacy, the authors con-
cluded that unvaccinated
people faced an 85% high-
er risk of being infected
than vaccinated people.
DOES A SMALLPOX
VACCINE PROTECT
AGAINST MONKEYPOX?
According to the CDC, a
previous smallpox vacci-
nation does provide some
protection against monk-
eypox, though that protec-
tion wanes over time. Ex-
perts advise that anyone
who had the smallpox vac-
cine more than three years
ago and is at increased
risk for monkeypox get the
monkeypox vaccine.
WHO SHOULD GET
VACCINATED?
At the national level, any-
one who has had close con-
tact with an infected per-
son, who has a weakened
immunesystemorwhohad
dermatitis or eczema is eli-
gible for a Jynneos vaccine.
Somestateandlocalgov-
ernments are also making
vaccines available to peo-
ple in communities at
higher risk for monkey-
pox. For example, New
York City is allowing men
who have sex with men
and who have had multiple
sexual partners in the past
14 days to get vaccinated.
WHAT IS THE SUPPLY LIKE
FOR THE JYNNEOS VACCINE?
As of July 29, 2022, a little
over 300,000 doses have
been shipped to points of
care or administered, with
another 700,000 already al-
located to states across the
U.S.However,demandisfar
outpacing supply
. Public
health officials acknowl-
edge that vaccine supply
shortages have resulted in
long lines and clinics hav-
ing to close when they run
out of vaccines. The issues
have been magnified by
technicalproblemswithon-
line booking systems, par-
ticularly in New York City
.
WHAT ABOUT JUST USING
ONE DOSE OF JYNNEOS?
Although federal health of-
ficials advise against with-
holding the second dose,
some places – including
Washington, D.C., and New
YorkCity–arewithholding
the second dose until more
become available. This
strategy is being used in
Britain and Canada as well
tovaccinateasmanypeople
aspossibleatleastonetime.

Mahesh Sharma
New Delhi: It is the
right of the opposition
to question the policies
of the government,
highlight its shortcom-
ings and if the govern-
ment does not listen, it
is the right of the oppo-
sition to protest. The 70
years of history
, experi-
ence and traditions of
Parliament established
a way of protest. But
now it seems that the op-
position parties will not
be able to protest follow-
ing those ways. Opposi-
tionpartiesusedtoraise
slogans in the House, go
to the Well and hold
demonstrations, waving
placards, but now all
this will not be allowed.
Members can be sus-
pended for using such
tactics. In the monsoon
session of Parliament,
27 MPs in both the hous-
es were suspended for
the same reasons.
Think, MPs will not
carry placards inside
the House, will not raise
slogans, will not go to
the Well, will not be able
to utter words of pro-
test, will not be able to
ment premises, then
how will they oppose
the government? Either
they stand quietly in
their place or walk out
of the house!
Keep in mind that re-
cently a list of unparlia-
mentary words had
come out and there is a
growing feeling that if
allthesewordsaremade
unparliamentary, then
how will the MPs pro-
test? A Rajya Sabha
manual states that MPs
shouldnotstagesit-inor
ment premises. Howev-
er,thereisnobanonthis
and in this session also
the MPs demonstrated.
But just as MPs were
suspended for shouting
slogans and showing
placards, in the coming
days, they may also be
suspendedforprotesting
in Parliament premises!

Amit Shah on Friday
said India is set to take
a giant leap in the 75th
year of its Independ-

able to stop it from be-

Shah said foreign
powers could keep In-
dia under their rule as
they succeeded in creat-
ing an inferiority com-
plex amongst Indians
which should be uproot-
ed to achieve independ-
ence in its truest sense.
The Home Minister
was speaking after the
launch of a mega seri-
al ‘Swaraj Bharat Ke
Swatantrata Sangram
Ki Samagra Gatha’,
produced by Doordar-
shan to mark the 75th
anniversary of Inde-
pendence.
The 75-episode mega
show chronicles lesser-
known tales about In-
dian history and would
be telecast from Au-
gust 14 on Doordar-
shan in Hindi and re-
gional languages.
Shah wondered if In-
dia could claim to have
achieved the true ide-
als of Swaraj if it failed
to protect its languag-
es, culture, and history
as it marched towards
the centenary of Inde-
pendence.
“The real meaning of
Swaraj means to run
India the way Indians
want it to be run. It in-
cludes our own lan-
guages, our religion,
our culture and also our
arts,” Shah said at the
function attended by In-
formation Broadcast-
ing Minister Anurag
Thakur, Minister of
State L Murugan, mem-
bers of parliament

WHY RATION
CARD MUST
UNDER AROGYA
NIDHI ASKS HC
New Delhi: Delhi
High Court on Friday
questioned why having
a ration card was nec-
essary for a citizen to
avail financial benefits
under the Rashtriya
Arogya Nidhi and
sought the stand of the
Centre and city govern-
ment on plea by a be-
low poverty line cancer
patient to declare the
mandate illegal and
unconstitutional. Jus-
tice Yashwant Varma
issued notice on the
plea by the 30-yr-old
woman whose request
to AIIMS for financial
aid under the scheme
was rejected for non-
availability of a ration
card and granted time
to the respondents to
file reply. The court
observed that without
a ration card, the pe-
titioner would not get
the benefit under RAN,
which would defeat the
scheme itself.

Govt to hold exhibitions on ‘horrors of
Partition’ at railway stations, airports
New Delhi (PTI): The
government is set to
hold exhibitions on
“horrors of the Parti-
tion” at key public plac-
es such as railway sta-
tions, airports and
malls between August
10 and August 14.
The Ministry of Cul-
ture has written to the
Railway Ministry to
hold such exhibitions
on station premises to
reach out to a maxi-
mum number of people.
Other than railway
stations, such exhibi-
tions to highlight the
“tragedy of the Parti-
tion” should be organ-
ised at important public
places such as banks,
post offices, airports,
shopping malls, educa-
tional institutions and
vocational training in-
stitutes.
In his Independence
Day speech last year,
PM Modi declared Au-
gust 14 to be observed as
“Partition Horrors Re-
membrance Day”.
Partition Horrors Re-
membrance Day has
been envisaged to bring
to light the agony, suf-
fering and pain of mil-
lions of people who
were the sufferers. It is
to remind the country
of the largest displace-
ment of human popula-
tion in the last century,
which also claimed the
lives of a large number
of people.
The exhibition will be held between August 10 and August 14.

Srinagar (PTI): The National Conference and the
Peoples Democratic Party on Friday flayed the
Centre for “robbing” the people of

Didi seeks WB’s dues worth crores
From Pg 1...
It may be recalled, as
exclusively reported in
First India, that the
Assam CM recently met
Mamata Didi in Kolkata
along with then WB
Governor Jagdeep
Dhahkhar over high
tea, where he informed
the Chief Minister of
WB of the President of
India’s decision to with-
draw the governor from
her state. The TMC CM
had a very turbulent re-
lationship with
Dhankhar till then and
was believed to be on
the verge of initiating
impeachment proceed-
ings against him. Im-
mediately after the Kol-
kata meeting Mamata
Didi had indicated that
she would abstain from
voting against
Dhankhar’s candida-
ture for VP, as proposed
by NDA headed by PM
Narendra Modi.
The initiative for Fri-
day’s meeting with the
PM, however, is be-
lieved to have come
from Didi’s end further
cementing the Assam
CM’s rising profile as
not only the right hand
of HM Shah but also,
emissary of PM Modi.
WB CM also raised
the issue of rechristen-
ingWBasBanglaacross
all language formats
besides another issue
with PM Modi during
her meeting on Friday.
The WB CM was also
scheduled to meet with
the newly elected Presi-
dent of India Droupadi
Murmu.

Mukesh Mathrani
Barmer: The Barmer
superintendent of po-
lice has removed one
SHO and suspended two
constables for temper-
ing the evidence of a

in the FIR. It is also
blamed that the act was
done in order to give un-
due benefit to the bus
owner. Sources claimed
that it was done in order
to help the bus owner as
the bus that met with
the accident was al-
ready blacklisted by the
RTO Jhalana Jaipur
and was not allowed to
travel. Taking serious
note of it, Deepak Bhar-
gav, SP Barmer removed

Jaipur: An approxi-
mately 20- minute long
meeting between Chief
Minister Ashok Gehlot
and Director General
of the Anti Corrup-
tion Bureau BL Soni
has raised the curiosi-
ty of the ‘bureaucratic
realm’ and particular-
ly of the IPS commu-
nity of the state. The
meeting that took
place on Friday morn-
ing, when the Chief
Minister was on his
way to the State hang-
er, has left officials
making wild guesses
about what might have
transpired during
those 20 minutes. Soni
reached CMR in the
morning to meet Ge-
hlot from where CM
took Soni with him
from his residence to
the State hanger. Usu-
ally Gehlot sits on the
front seat of the car
but on Friday morn-
ing, CM sat with Soni
on the back seat of the
car and on the way, the
duo held an important
discussion.
After the meeting,
there was a fresh
grapevine that Gehlot
must have offered him
some suitable post re-
tirement offer, which ,
is also likely to happen
when Soni retires on
December 31 this year.
However, according
to reliable input, there
was only some ‘person-
al issue,’ which was
discussed between the
two during the meet-
ing.
Gehlot-Soni’s 20 minute meet leaves babudom ‘perplexed’!

First India Bureau
New Delhi/Jaipur:
Chief Minister Ashok
Gehlot while taking a
review meeting of Ani-
mal Husbandry Dept
via VC from Bikaner
House in Delhi, said
that like corona in hu-
mans, now the lumpy
skin disease is spread-
ing very fast in animals.
“The way exemption
was given in the devel-
opment fund of MLAs
during the time of Co-
rona, it had a good ef-
fect. Right now some
MLAs like Mevaram
Jain and Hemaram
Choudhary have of-
fered money from the
fund in order to save the
lives of animals. I will
direct Animal Hus-
bandry Minister Lal-
chand Kataria that
MLAs can give Rs 10
lakh in CM Relief Fund
so that there is no short-
age of funds. We have to
save the cow. It is a big
decision of the state
government to give
grant of 9 months in-
stead of 6 in a year. At
the time of long illness,
our duty increases,” Ge-
hlot said.
He said that lumpy skin
disease has suddenly
spread very fast in the
last 2-4 days. “We should
take it as a challenge,”
he said.
From P1...
Gehlot said that when
the assembly session is
going on, no such meet-
ing can be held in the
districts where, the
MLA has to participate.
“This is the first time
that Parliament is in
session and in between,
Mallikarjun Kharge
and Sonia Gandhi are
being called for ques-
tioning. That’s why I
said that there is ED. If
National Herald news-
paper can be attacked
and then it can happen
to anyone,” he said.
Gehlot further added,
“I want to remind what
the ideologue Martin
Nimole had said about
Hitler’s dictatorship in
Germany. During Hit-
ler’s dictatorship, when
the opposition, etc
started targeting them,
people were silent.
thinking that there is a
political fight. When
Germany was ruined
by Hitler’s dictatorship
in 1945, people had to
repent. If voice for de-
mocracy was raised in
time, the country would
not have been ruined.
Similarly, if we remain
silent today
, history will
not forgive us.”

A reward of Rs

who took the injured

It is the respon-

asked to get the animals

z The scheme probably couldn’t gear up as the

z No separate nodal officer has been appointed
for this scheme in any government and private

z This scheme didn’t get enough publicity. Most
accidents happen on NHs, but scheme’s hoard-
ings haven’t been put up on any NH or hospital.
Jaipur: A ‘million-dollar’ question, ‘Who will be the new
Election Commissioner of Rajasthan’ has been doing
the rounds in state bureaucracy, the answer to which,
no one knows. After the retirement of PS Mehra, the
round of discussions about this prime position has
come to life. Interestingly, one of Gehlot’s favourite
officers, IPS BL Soni’s name is on top. Meanwhile, a
recently retired IAS has also become active in the mat-
ter to the extent that lobbying for the position is being
done from Delhi. IAS and its equivalent All India service
officers are eligible for the post. Notably, if an officer is
made Election Commissioner while in service, then the
officer would be considered deemed retired. Now, CM
Gehlot can decide on the name after which Panchayati
Raj Department will issue order. —FIB

Aditi Nagar/Ashvini Yadav
New Delhi: Former
Deputy Chief Minister
of Rajasthan Sachin
Pilot and Chairman of
Rajasthan Tourism De-
velopment Corpora-
tion Dharmendra
Rathore were detained
by Delhi Police on Fri-
day. Pilot joined the
Congress’s ‘Mehengai
Halla Bol’ programme
against the Modi gov-
ernment during which
he stressed that Con-
gress will oppose the
dictatorship of the BJP
government.
“Truth will not bow
down. Modi govern-
ment is living in arro-
gance. It is turning its
back on the people of
the country. We will
not be afraid of the dic-
tatorship and atroci-
ties of the BJP. We will
continue to raise our
voice on issues related
to the people. Priyanka
Gandhi sat on Satya-
graha with us and thus,
truth can’t be erased by
taking us into custody
against the autocratic
rule of BJP. The Centre
can turn its back on
the country and the
people, but not Con-
gress. This Gandhian
Satyagraha and strug-
gle will continue. We
will speak on infla-
tion,” Pilot tweeted.
The Congress leader
said, “Unbridled infla-
tion and unemploy-
ment in the country
have made life difficult
for the people. Especial-
ly by snatching the
morsel of the poor and
middle class, the Centre
has shown its cruelty
and autocracy. People
will teach a lesson to
Modi government in
elections,” he said.
Moreover, Pilot
strongly condemned
the arrest of Congress
MP Rahul Gandhi and
tweeted, “The arrest of
Congress leaders and
workers including Ra-
hul Gandhi for raising
their voice against un-
bridled inflation is con-
demnable. Congress
will continue to raise
the voice of the people
against this backbreak-
ing inflation.”

Arch Fashion Show', during
the global educator's fest
2022 at Hotel Diggi Palace

signed by the students of ARCH,
the teachers displayed their model-
ling skills and graced the show with
their elegance. Abdul Rashid

tion, Maldives and Lakshya Raj Singh,
Mewar of Udaipur and Trustee, Ma-
harana of Mewar Foundation and

ramp. Under the Design Culture
Initiative, ARCH part-
nered with Global Educa-
tors Fest 2022 and provid-
ed another platform for its

forming School Curriculum: Em-
powering Learning for Life' where teach-
ers from across the country will sit to-
gether to brainstorm new priorities,
pedagogy, technologies and assessment
strategies. This annual event is organized
under the leadership of Ravi Santalani at

August 7th is
Friendship
Day
. Actually
,
there is no
such “day”
in true
friendship. With a
close friend, you may
celebrate life togeth-
er every day. The
bonds of friendship
are things we devel-
op with other people.
For the majority of
us, friends come and
go frequently during
our lives. Some,
though, are here to
stay. These are the
real pals we have.
Every true connec-
tion is unique. We all
need some inspiring,
thought-provoking,
and life-changing
movies on friendship
as Friendship’s Day
approaches to make
up for the fact that
our close friends are
still thousands of
miles away. As you
become older, you re-
alise that keeping
friendships takes
time and effort but
you also realise how
important it is to
keep up with the im-
portant people in
your life. City First
brings to you some
of the best Bolly-
wood movies you can
stream with your
friends and make it a
weekend full of
memories and nos-
talgic talks.

3 IDIOTS
We find ourselves watching Rancho, Raju,
and Farhan’s adventure over and over
again because it is simultaneously painful
and funny. Their relationship captivates us
with its sweetness and makes us think of
our college friends and that one eccentric
buddy who always dared to think outside
the box.
AE DIL HAI
MUSHKIL
Alizeh (Anushka
Sharma) and Ayaan
(Ranbir Kapoor),
albeit somewhat com-
plicated, do not end
up together. Ayaan
does develop feelings
for his friend, but
the film’s high point
is undoubtedly her
assertion that “Pyar
mein junoon hai, par
dosti mein sukoon
hain.”
VEERE DI WEDDING
Women were thrilled to see a movie on female friendship
after decades of movies celebrating male camaraderie.
Kareena Kapoor, Sonam Kapoor, Swara Bhaskar, and
Shikha Talsania, our “Veeres,” demonstrated to us that no
matter what happens in life, you can always trust on your
gal buddies!
ZINDAGI NA MILEGI DOBARA
The trio of closest friends. They have an
old duty to uphold as well as a bet to fulfil.
which is to do out three terrifying acts
simultaneously while on vacation, as in-
structed by each. Will we be together till the
end of time? Well…? Yes, in some ways.
Without a question, the movie is a ‘bro-
mance,’ or a hard-core male-bonding story.
SONU KE TITU KI SWEETY
You must see the humorous story of “Bromance
vs. Romance”! Kartik Aaryan, Nushrat Bharucha,
Sunny Nijar, Alok Nath, and Ishita Raj Sharma
are a few of the actors that appear in it. The
movie will make you laugh until your cheeks
ache, but it also has just the right amount of
sadness to make you value your real friends.
DIL
CHAHTA HAI
This movie is like a breath
of fresh air. Does the movie still
qualify as one of the best bro-
mances 20 years after its release?
Everybody is in pain, and occa-
sionally everyone is crying. Eve-
ryone is also romantic. You’ll
see the significance of Dil
Chahta Hai if you ac-
cept it.
One such movie that really portrays friendship and love is Angry Indian Goddesses. Angry
Indian Goddesses, dubbed “India’s first buddy female picture,” addresses a variety of problems
that Indians must deal with, including gender inequality, the objectification of women for sex,
gay-straight friendships, big business versus tribal rights, rape issues, caste prejudice, and leni-
ent justice. Excellent performers like Sandhya Mridul, Tannishtha Chatterjee, Sarah-Jane Dias,
Anushka Manchanda, Amrit Maghera, and Rajshri Deshpande appear in this movie.
DEAR ZINDAGI
The story of how Kaira (Alia Bhatt), who has seen a
string of romantic and professional setbacks, devel-
ops insomnia is rather interesting and a welcome
change from the usual Bollywood mood. She eventu-
ally makes touch with psychotherapist Jehangir Khan
(Shah Rukh Khan), who treats her using unusual
techniques. Although most people would anticipate
the two of them would eventually start to fall in love,
it’s lovely to watch them maintain only a loving friend-
ship until the very end.
