I’m quite used to the cruelty students can face when they apply for a US visa but this one broke me. We offered admission to a stellar, talented & hardworking student. After months of work and hundreds of dollars, an embassy officer saw him for 5 mins & said no. why? …

Instead of publishing the student's name, publish the coaching institute's name that she went to. Go on, I dare you to.

Somewhere between "manasidre maarga" and " namm mansu namge oLLed maaDadre devru", we all grew up.

Heard a kid shout "Ajji mane kaayangilla" from a distance. Within seconds my entire childhood & our summer holidays then came flashing in front of my eyes. Miss those days 🥺🥰

What exciting news to wake up to!!
