Eid-ul-Fitr 2026: As Ramadan 2026 draws to a close, Muslims across the country are eagerly awaiting Eid-ul-Fitr 2026, the joyous festival that marks the end of fasting. The big question that is already buzzing in homes from Kashmir to Kerala is will Eid-ul-Fitr 2026 celebrations kick off on Friday, March 20, or spill into Saturday, March 21?

Eid-ul-Fitr 2026-The Moon’s Decisive Role

On the Gregorian calendar, the date of Eid-ul-Fitr is not fixed as it is dictated by the lunar Islamic calendar, where each month of the year starts with the new moon’s sighting. For 2026, Ramadan is expected to span 29 or 30 days, with Chand Raat (moonwatching) scheduled for the evening of March 19. If the Shawwal crescent is sighted after Maghrib prayers, Eid-ul-Fitr 2026 would fall on March 20 else March 21.

Astronomical predictions favour visibility on March 19 but scholars and astronomers would make the official call and announcing it via media and mosques.

Chand Raat: Night of Frenzied Festivities

Chand Raat, or “Moon Night,” transforms the eve into a whirlwind of preparation and thrill. Markets in Old Delhi’s Chandni Chowk, Hyderabad’s Laad Bazaar and Mumbai’s Bhendi Bazaar overflow with shoppers grabbing new clothes, henna cones, bangles and sweets till late hours. Street food stalls and roadside eateries sizzle with sheer kurma and sewai, and homes experience humming of Urdu couplets about the elusive dance of the moon.

Biryani Battles and Eidi Extravaganza

No Eid across the board is considered complete without biryani, which is one of the favourite festive staples with regional twists. Malabar versions spice with coconut while Kolkata’s kacchi biryani packs potatoes for crunch. Families across the nation compete in wars of flavours with biryani pots bubbling since Chand Raat.

Children wait anxiously to get delighted with Eidi (cash gifts in envelopers) while elderly slip notes with blessings, teaching generosity. Whether March 20’s Friday rush or March 21’s relaxed vibe, India gears for prayers at fajr, biryani at noon, and Eidi till dusk. Chand Raat’s magic ensures every Eid feels fresh, renewing faith and friendships. Families pray for peace, prosperity, and perhaps an early moon this year.

Dubai Airport Fire: Traffic Routes, Flights Restored After Drone Strike! Why Are Middle East Countries Not Responding To Iranian Attacks?

Dubai Airport Fire: The busy Dubai Airport has restored operations after a drone strike struck a fuel compound in the airport’s compound. The authorities announced that several flights have now been diverted to the Al Maktoum International Airport (DWC) from the Dubai International Airport (DXB).

Dubai Airport Fire-What Happened?

Flight operations were suspended by airport authorities after a fuel tank in the vicinity was struck by a drone attack from the Islamic Republic of Iran.

The latest strike came a day after the Iran regime accused the United States of using docks, hideouts and ports in the United Arab Emirates. Tehran issued a warning for evacuating UAE’s three ports before it targeted the non-US assets in a neighbouring country.

Several routes around the airport including the Airport Tunnel, Airport Road, access roads near Cargo Village and Marrakech Street and Al Garhoud Bridge towards Casablanca Street were shut down to secure the area. Motorists were advised to seek alternative routes, resulting in considerable congestion in adjacent neighbourhoods that are already dense with airport-related traffic.

Why Is Iran Striking In The Gulf?

Tehran has been maintaining that it’s targeting US military facilities and “hostile” infrastructure of the United States in countries that host American forces. However, Iran has been repeatedly striking on or near civilian sites, including oil facilities, airports and residential areas.

According to media reports, Iran has attacked Bahrain, Jordan, Kuwait, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Iraq and the UAE since February 28, testing regional air defence patience and exposing vulnerabilities.

Why Are Middle East Governments Not Attacking Iran?

Countries in the Middle East governments have been avoiding attacks on Iran despite repeated air strikes as they possibly don’t want to get dragged down into a regional war. Moreover, many of these countries are hedging between Tehran and Washington and depend on them for economic ties. Many Gulf states don’t want to become front-line combatants in US Israel Iran War. This is because an open war against Iran could expose their cities, expatriate-dependent economies and energy facilities to devastating retaliation.

Induction Vs. LPG Cooking: The Ultimate Kitchen Showdown, Should You Ditch LPG For Good? Check

Induction vs. LPG Cooking

Induction Vs. LPG Cooking: For years, Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) has been promoted in rural and urban areas as the primary source of household cooking fuel. However, recent geopolitical tensions in the Middle East have intensified concerns about easy availability, price volatility and potential supply disruption.

As more and more Indian households are assessing alternative cooking options, induction cooktops are fast emerging as one of the best replacements to LPG because of their efficacy, safety profile and ease of use.

Induction Vs. LPG Cooking: The Pros And Cons

Cooking with a LPG cylinder could be a relatively inefficient option price-wise as approximately 50-60 percent of the heat from LPG cylinders could dissipate. In metro cities like Delhi, a standard non-subsidized 14.2 kilogram of LPG cylinder presently costs around Rs. 913.

On the other hand, induction cooktops could require about 78 units of electricity. The total cost would be approximately Rs. 624 at an electricity tariff of Rs. 8 per unit, saving around Rs. 300 when compared with a LPG cylinder.

One of the biggest benefits of induction cooktops is that you don’t have to pay cylinder deposits. Secondly, many states offer massive electricity subsidies and solar-compatible options, resulting in low cooking bills.

Thirdly, the open flames of LPG are fire hazards waiting to happen. Every year, thousands of accidents happen in India due to LPG cylinder leaks. Induction Cooktops have zero flames and would auto shut-off if cookware is lifted. Moreover, it has child-lock features that make it a safer choice for joint families. LPG demands regulator checks, manual ignition and constant refills amid shortages such as the present-day Middle East crisis.

The Drawbacks Of Induction Cooktops: LPG Fights Back

Induction is not flawless as it requires ferromagnetic cookware. You would have to upgrade your cooking utensils as aluminium would not work without adapters. Secondly, power outages are common in rural and semi-urban areas that may halt cooking rotis or vegetables mid-way. Initial setup costs more upfront and electricity bills may be spiked with high-wattage models when overused.

Are you ready to unplug from LPG dependency or would you wait?

From Stardom to Shock: Jannat Zubair and Brother Ayan Zubair Face Unexpected Attack in Panvel, What Really Happened?

Jannat- Zubair
Google

Social media was left shocked after reports surfaced claiming that popular influencer and television star Jannat Zubair and her brother Ayaan Zubair were allegedly attacked during a trip near Panvel. 

Who Are Jannat Zubair and Ayaan Zubair?

Jannat Zubair Rahmani is one of India’s most popular young television stars and digital influencers. She began her career as a child artist and gained widespread popularity through TV shows and social media. Her younger brother, Ayaan Zubair Rahmani, is also a well-known child actor and influencer. The two siblings often appear together in reels, collaborations, and brand promotions, and their playful bond has earned them millions of fans online. 

The Incident in Panvel

According to circulating reports, the incident took place when Jannat and Ayaan were traveling near Panvel, a city located on the outskirts of Mumbai. Sources suggest that the situation began with a road-related altercation involving another vehicle. What initially appeared to be a simple driving dispute reportedly escalated into a heated confrontation. Witness accounts claim that the individuals involved allegedly behaved aggressively, leading to a brief physical and verbal clash. Although details are still emerging, early reports indicate that the confrontation happened suddenly and left the siblings shaken.

Were Jannat and Ayaan injured?

Fortunately, there are no confirmed reports of serious injuries to either Jannat or Ayaan. People close to the situation have suggested that the incident was more frightening than physically harmful, and both siblings were able to leave the location safely. However, the emotional shock of such an unexpected encounter in public understandably worried fans across social media.

The Growing Problem of Road Rage

Salman Khan: Battle of Galwan Turns Maatrubhumi, What Went Wrong, Why THIS Rebranding? Check

Salman- Khan

Salman Khan: Bollywood star Salman Khan is getting ready for the war movie Battle of Galwan. It’s one of the biggest things he’s ever worked on. Apoorva Lakhia’s movie is based on the real battle that took place in 2020 between Indian and Chinese troops in the Galwan Valley along the Line of Actual Control in Ladakh.

The movie shows how brave and good Colonel Bikkumalla Santosh Babu and his men were during the violent war at high altitudes. The movie caused a lot of trouble even before it came out because it was made on a large scale and was about being patriotic.

The “Maatrubhumi” Buzz

A lot of people are talking about the song “Maatrubhumi,” which came out with the movie. The patriotic song came out in January 2026 and quickly became well-known for honouring the sacrifices and loyalty of soldiers to their country.

Sameer Anjaan wrote the song, and Himesh Reshammiya wrote the music.

Arijit Singh and Shreya Ghoshal sing it. Some people think that the song’s focus on emotional storytelling and patriotism has made people less interested in the movie’s intense war story and more interested in a more general theme of nationalism.

Why Changes and delays in making 

Sources say that the producers filmed more scenes to make the story and the action scenes better. The reports say a 15-day patchwork schedule, which shows that the team was putting in a lot of effort to make the final product better before it came out. Reports from the industry also said that the release date should be pushed back, maybe even to a national holiday, to make the movie more appealing to patriots.

Why are people disagreeing about “rebranding”?

People are saying online that the movie’s marketing strategy is changing because it focuses so much on the anthem Maatrubhumi. Now, promotions are more about love of country, sacrifice, and feelings than just the fight.

Viral Video: You may have seen many Indian fruit & vegetable markets with vendors shouting on top of their voice to sell their produce. A viral video has been doing the rounds where two young girls could be seen perching under the modest vegetable cart of their father.

Netizens are appreciating the zeal and determination of the two girls saying that if one is really committed to study, you don’t need fancy educational desks or air-conditioned rooms.

Viral Video-Turn Of Events

In the viral video, two young girls could be seen studying beneath the vegetable staff of their father while he sells tomatoes, onions and green vegetables from dawn till dusk. Shared widely on platforms like X and Instagram, the video has managed to attract millions of likes, shares and views. Viewers watch in awe as the girls scribble notes, flipping pages with determination, oblivious to the world around them.

The father, likely from a modest background in a tier-2 city or rural outpost, embodies the unsung heroes who fuel India’s economy. Day after day, he pushes his cart through crowded lanes, ensuring his family eats while pouring every spare rupee into his girls’ education. And his daughters? Their concentration screams ambition. In a country where girls often face barriers to schooling – poverty, early marriage or societal pressures, they choose books over boredom. This isn’t just heartwarming; it’s a powerful reminder. Education isn’t about infrastructure; it’s about resolve.

Social Media Reactions

A social media user commented, “Hats off to such committed children and their supportive father.” Another user commented, “That’s the meaning of determination and dedication.” Another user wrote, “Eventually they will be in a great position and take care of their father… God bless them.” Another user commented, “Kasam se bol rha, a dono zindgi me bhaut age badenge.”

3 Superfoods To Combat Fatty Liver! Top Hepatologist And Gastroenterologist Discusses Ways To Treat NAFLD Naturally With Healthy Eating

Fatty Liver
Image Credit: Google

Fatty Liver: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) affects millions worldwide, often undiagnosed due to obesity, poor diet or insulin resistance. Thankfully, simple dietary change could help in reversing NAFLD. Medical experts across the world recommend black coffee, leafy green vegetables and broccoli because of their anti-inflammatory, fat-reducing and detoxifying powers.

Understanding Fatty Liver

The human liver processes nutrients, regulates metabolism and filters toxins. However, excess fat could impair these functions, risking cirrhosis and inflammation.

1. Black Coffee: Your Daily Liver Ally

More than just another morning boost, black coffee is rich in caffeine and chlorogenic acids that could help fight liver fat. Studies have demonstrated that the moderate intake of black coffee (2-3 cups a day) could significantly reduce liver enzymes, slow down the process of fibrosis and cut down the risk of NAFLD by as much as 80 percent. Antioxidants such as polyphenols could enhance fat breakdown and reduce inflammation, mimicking exercise effects on the liver.

Ideally, you should brew strong black filter coffee, 2 cups pre-meal. A dash of cinnamon could be added for extra anti-inflammatory punch. You should avoid black coffee after 4pm to protect sleep.

2. Leafy Green Vegetables

Leafy greens such as kale, methi (fenugreek leaves), mustard greens and spinach could be great choices to treat fatty liver. They help in neutralizing toxins and slashing fat deposits via polyphenols and nitrates while binding heavy metals. Moreover, these low-calorie vegetables could help in fighting oxidative stress while reducing inflammation and promoting weight loss at the same time.

You could try Methi thepla or palak paneer, stir-fried greens with garlic or Kale-spinach smoothie with lemon.

3. Broccoli

Rich in sulforaphane, Broccoli helps in the activation of liver detox enzymes to speed up the process of fat metabolism. The high fibre and antioxidants content in broccoli could reduce insulin resistance, limit fibrosis progression and protect cells. You could steam broccoli for 5 minutes to retain sulforaphane, blend it into salads or soups or stir-fry with mustard greens.
