Love is a powerful force that transcends time and boundaries, and in India, many couples find inspiration in the divine love story of Krishna and Radha. The two are inseparable, with their names forever linked together. Krishna is incomplete without Radha, and Radha finds her completeness only in Krishna’s love.
According to ancient scriptures, Krishna’s love for Radha began at the tender age of eight and endured throughout his life. Their connection was so profound that Krishna loved only Radha and his beloved flute above all else. The sweet melodies he played on his flute were what attracted Radha to him, and he always kept it close.
Although their love was eternal, fate kept them apart in marriage. Krishna eventually married Rukmini and Satyabhama, but this didn’t diminish the love he held for Radha. When Radha learned about Krishna’s marriage, she wasn’t saddened but decided to meet him one last time.
Radha arrived in Dwarka, where Krishna resided, but nobody recognized her. She requested Krishna to appoint her as a Devika in the palace, which he agreed to. Despite living in the palace, Radha couldn’t experience the same spiritual connection with Krishna as before. She longed for a deeper bond and decided to leave the palace to establish a more profound spiritual relationship with him.
In her last days, Radha embarked on a journey, feeling lonely and weak. Krishna appeared before her one final time. He made a request, but Radha declined. When Krishna insisted, she expressed her desire to hear him play the flute for the last time. Krishna, with his harmonious tunes, played the flute day and night.
As Radha listened to the enchanting melodies, she merged with Krishna in a spiritual manner and peacefully departed from her mortal body. Krishna, unable to bear the loss of his beloved Radha, broke his flute as a symbol of their eternal love and threw it away. Since that moment, Krishna never played the flute or any other instrument again.
The tale of Krishna and Radha’s love is one of devotion and sacrifice, showing that true love transcends earthly boundaries and remains eternal in the realms of the soul. Their story continues to inspire countless hearts, teaching us the profound depths of love and the enduring connection between two souls.

UP Boards Topper Prachi Nigam was trolled on social media for her facial hair; our obsession with appearance is harsh on young minds.
Prachi Nigam’s photo has been doing the rounds on social media for the right reasons. Well, scratch that- I wish the above statement were true. This 15-year-old girl should ideally be revelling in her spectacular achievement of scoring a whopping 98.05% and topping her tenth-grade boards. But oddly enough, along with her marks, it’s something else that garners more attention – her facial hair.
While the trolls are driving themselves giddy by mocking this girl who hasn’t even completed her school yet, the ones who are taking her side are going one step ahead – they are sharing her photoshopped pictures, sans the facial hair, looking nothing less than a celebrity with captions saying – “Prachi Nigam, ten years later”.
Doctors have already diagnosed her with PCOD in their comments, based on photographic evidence. While we have names for people shamed for their weight – body shaming, for their skin colour- racism, for their age- age shaming, for being a female- sexism, this category of shaming where one faces criticism for their appearance has no name. With that, it also has zero shame attached to it.
