Birthdays often offer an opportunity to reflect on the journey so far, and for Samridhii Shukla, the occasion is as much about gratitude as it is about celebrating another year of life. The actress, who has become a familiar face in Indian households with her portrayal of Abhira Poddar in Star Plus long-running show Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai, believes that the past year has taught her valuable lessons about family, resilience and self-worth. As Abhira, the spirited lawyer who is now married to another Armaan Poddar, played by Rohit Purohit, Samridhii has earned considerable affection from viewers. While the character continues to enjoy a special place in the audiences hearts, the actress admits that the love surrounding Abhira has also brought about a significant change in her own life. Looking back at the year gone by, Samridhii identifies family as her biggest source of strength. I feel family is the one constant that stands by you through every phase of life, and right now, they are my biggest pillar of strength, she says. She is equally grateful for the opportunity to work every day and pursue something she genuinely loves, along with the affection and appreciation she continues to receive from people. One of the biggest realisations of the year, however, has been discovering her own resilience. One thing I have learnt about myself is that I am much stronger than I give myself credit for. There were times when I doubted my own strength, but this year has made me realise that I am, in fact, quite strong, the actress reflects. The appreciation she receives for playing Abhira has also played an important role in shaping her confidence. Describing the audiences love as instrumental in her journey, Samridhii says, It has given me newfound confidence and so much unconditional love and appreciation. It has shaped me into a more confident actor and, as a person, I feel much more appreciated. She particularly values how viewers celebrate milestones that can sometimes get lost in the everyday demands of a television schedule. Whether it is completing 1,000 episodes, marking three years on the show or winning an award, the audience makes sure that these moments receive their due recognition. When you are working every day, sometimes you get caught up in the routine and become immune to your own milestones. But the audience constantly reminds you to pause and celebrate these moments, she explains. Over the years, Samridhiis understanding of success and happiness has also evolved. Today, she measures success through her ability to fulfil professional responsibilities and do justice to the work entrusted to her. She also finds happiness in life's everyday comforts and the people she can genuinely depend on. As you grow older, you realise that you dont need a large circle; you just need a few people who genuinely want the best for you, she says. This shift in perspective is also reflected in the way she approaches birthdays. While she was once someone who had elaborate expectations and looked forward to being celebrated, showered with gifts and appreciated, she now prefers to let the day unfold naturally. Her ideal celebration is simple: spending time with loved ones without worrying about elaborate arrangements. In fact, her recent Diwali celebrations offered a glimpse into the kind of happiness she values. With no particular plans, she spent time at home with her family, enjoying her mother's home-cooked Kashmiri pulao, chole puri and basundi. The experience reinforced her belief that celebrations do not necessarily need to be planned to be memorable. She also acknowledges the pressure of the Instagram-driven world, where there is often an expectation to make every occasion look picture-perfect. For Samridhii, preserving her authenticity matters more. That outlook is perhaps rooted in the lessons she has learnt while growing up. If she could meet her younger self, the actress would simply tell her to relax and trust that everything would eventually fall into place. Describing herself as an extremely sensitive and empathetic person, she admits that learning to establish boundaries has been an important part of her personal growth. Today, I have understood that other peoples actions are often a reflection of what they are dealing with themselves and dont necessarily have anything to do with me. I have learnt not to take everything personally, and that is something I wish I had understood earlier, she shares. Beyond her television commitments, Samridhii is also looking forward to exploring digital media more actively in the coming year. She hopes to experiment with Instagram, create content and gradually build a community where she can express herself more freely. However, the actress admits that stepping outside her comfort zone will take some effort, given that she considers herself an introvert. I also want whatever I create to feel extremely organic and authentic. I dont want it to feel forced or like I am trying to show a particular side of myself. I think this is about slowly coming out of my shell, and I am sure I will get there, she says. Interestingly, her birthday also coincides with Children's Day, making the occasion particularly meaningful because of a cherished childhood tradition. Samridhii recalls how her father would bring her a red rose every year, associating it with the tradition of Chacha Nehru. He would also narrate stories about freedom fighters, a subject that was close to the family's heart, considering her great-grandparents' involvement in the freedom struggle. Her great-grandfather even served as an MLA in Kanpur for a brief period. She also remembers looking forward to Children's Day celebrations at school, particularly the opportunity to wear casual clothes instead of her uniform and distribute candies to her classmates. However, the day usually coincided with a school holiday. Looking at the affection and recognition she receives today, the actress feels those missed celebrations have been more than compensated for. Looking at how many people celebrate my birthday today and shower me with love, I feel life has made up for all those missed school celebrations. The recognition and affection I receive, even from people I have never met, are truly overwhelming. What more could I ask for? she concludes. For Samridhii Shukla, then, another birthday is not about grand celebrations or a long list of expectations. It is about acknowledging the people who have stood by her, appreciating the journey that has brought her here and finding the confidence to embrace everything that lies ahead.

Diwali rush: Over 8.20 lakh passengers travel in six days; Western Railway runs 73 special trains
Digital Desk | Ahmedabad, Nov 7 (IANS) More than 8.20 lakh passengers travelled from stations under the Ahmedabad Division of Western Railway in the first six days of November, prompting the railway administration to deploy additional staff, set up holding areas and operate 73 special train trips to manage the festive rush during Diwali and Chhath Puja. Between November 1 and 6, the division recorded 4.55 lakh passengers travelling on unreserved tickets and 3.65 lakh on reserved tickets. Ahmedabad Railway Station accounted for more than 3.20 lakh passengers, followed by Sabarmati with 1.30 lakh and Asarwa with around 50,000. Together, the three stations handled more than five lakh passengers during the six days. To meet the additional demand, Western Railway is operating 73 special train trips from the Ahmedabad Division during November to destinations across Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Rajasthan, Maharashtra and other states. The services are being operated from Ahmedabad, Sabarmati, Asarwa, Bhuj and Gandhidham, connecting passengers to cities including Lucknow, Kanpur, Agra, Mumbai, Prayagraj, Muzaffarpur, Darbhanga, Barauni, Rajgir, Jaipur, Haridwar and Bhagalpur. Divisional Railway Manager (DRM) Ved Prakash visited Ahmedabad Railway Station late at night and remained there with railway officials to oversee arrangements for passengers travelling during the festive season. He inspected the holding areas and other facilities and interacted with passengers heading to Uttar Pradesh and Bihar to enquire about their travel experience. He also extended Chhath Puja greetings and appealed to them to board trains in an orderly manner. Passengers raised slogans of 'Chhath Maiya Ki Jai' alongside the DRM and appreciated the arrangements. They said that after waiting for some time, they were allowed to board trains in an organised manner, allowing them to proceed towards their hometowns. Special holding areas have been set up at Ahmedabad and Sabarmati stations to prevent overcrowding on platforms. Seating, drinking water, lighting and fans have been provided at these locations for passengers waiting for their trains. The division has also arranged food packets, water bottles, chips and biscuits for general-class passengers. Voluntary organisations and NGOs are assisting in distributing food and drinking water. Additional cleaning staff have been deployed, while water coolers and other drinking water facilities are being monitored regularly. For security and crowd management, additional Railway Protection Force (RPF) and Government Railway Police (GRP) personnel, ticket-checking staff and other railway employees have been deployed. CCTV cameras are being used to monitor station premises, platforms and crowded areas. Particular attention is being paid to regulating passenger movement at entry and exit gates, foot overbridges and platforms. A dedicated war room has also been set up in the control building at the DRM's office to monitor passenger movement and train operations round the clock. During his inspection, Prakash reviewed CCTV surveillance, real-time crowd management, passenger movement on platforms, holding areas and queue-based boarding arrangements. He directed officials to coordinate immediately through the war room and take necessary action in the event of excessive crowding or passenger inconvenience at any station. Information about special train services, schedules and passenger facilities is being disseminated through electronic display boards, public announcement systems and social media. Train operations and punctuality are also being monitored regularly. The division has appealed to passengers to follow railway guidelines, maintain discipline on station premises and reach stations sufficiently ahead of their scheduled train departure times.

Ranji Trophy: Tripura stun Saurashtra; Mumbai get fourth win, Hyderabad edge Chhattisgarh
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Nov 5 (IANS) Tripura pulled off one of the biggest upsets in the 2026/27 Ranji Trophy by defeating former champions Saurashtra by 133 runs on the final day of their Elite Group B clash. Set 342 to win, Saurashtra were undone once again by off-spinner Sandip Sarkar. He followed his first-innings figures of 4-48 with 4-81, and finished with eight wickets in the match. Arpit Vasavada made 89, the only half-century of the second innings for Saurashtra, and was the last man to be dismissed after he was run out by Manisankar Murasingh to seal a famous win for Tripura in Agartala. Sridam Paul was named Player of the Match for scores of 86 and 50. At the Brabourne Stadium, 42-time champions Mumbai beat Railways by 106 runs to get their fourth straight outright win of the season. Mumbai had to wait until the final session to clinch the victory. Railways were 250/5 at the last drinks break and seemed set to escape with a draw. Eshaan Goyal and Zubair Ali had rebuilt the innings from 83/5 in the 31st over with a 167-run sixth-wicket stand. But on the very first ball after drinks, Goyal attempted a paddle sweep off Musheer Khan, and Musheers brother Sarfaraz, anticipating the shot from first slip, moved swiftly towards leg slip to take the catch. A couple of overs later, Musheer had Ali caught at long-off. Raj Choudhary and Himanshu Sangwan dug in for a while in an attempt to take Railways to a draw. But Tanush Kotian removed Choudhary, and Musheer came back to dismiss Sangwan and wrap up the win for Mumbai, as Railways lost their last five wickets for 15 runs. Elsewhere, Hyderabad scraped home by one wicket against Chhattisgarh in a nail-biting chase of 259 at the Gymkhana Ground. At 220/9, Hyderabad looked beaten, but a 39-run last-wicket stand off 104 balls turned the game, and Rakshann Readdi finished it with a six over long-off. The win also took Hyderabad to the top of the Group B table with 20 points. At the Eden Gardens, Maharashtra thrashed Bengal by 10 wickets in an Elite Group C clash. Bad light had cut into play on three days, but Maharashtra still had time to secure a bonus point. Pradeep Dhade and Hitesh Walunj took four wickets each on day for as Bengal were bowled out for 186 in their second innings, leaving Maharashtra a target of 112 to chase. Openers Sachin Dhas and Prithvi Shaw knocked it off in just 19.4 overs. While Dhas was unbeaten on 61 off 68 balls with 10 fours, and reached his fifty in 43 deliveries, Shaw made an unbeaten 53 off 50 balls, laced with three fours and four sixes, and got his half-century in 47 balls. It was Maharashtras biggest win of the season and their second outright victory. The seven points took them to 19, past previous leaders Bengal, who suffered their first defeat of the season. In Ahmedabad, Gujarat crushed Kerala by an innings and 58 runs to get a bonus-point victory. Urvil Patels unbeaten 210 set up the win, while Arzan Nagwaswalla finished with match figures of 8-83, including 4-24 on the last day, as Kerala were bowled out for 197 after being made to follow on. Tamil Nadu needed three wickets on the final day, and Ajith Ram took them all, finishing with 7-48 to seal the win over Chandigarh. At the Air Force Complex Ground in Palam, Yash Dhulls first hundred of the season helped Delhi hold on for a draw against Services and take three points due to taking a first-innings lead. Chasing 320, Delhi slipped to 119/4 just before tea when Nitin Tanwar removed Ayush Doseja for 14. But Dhull stood firm and finished unbeaten on 104 off 104 balls, with 11 fours and two sixes. He reached his century off 102 deliveries, shortly before the teams shook hands with Delhi, ending on 168/4 after 38 overs. Services captain Rajat Paliwal completed a century in each innings, while ex-Delhi player Mohit Ahlawat made 142 as Services declared their second innings at 397/9. Elsewhere, several games ended in draws. Uttar Pradesh made 492, built on Adarsh Singhs 162 and Madhav Kaushiks 137, and Prashant Veer took 3-42, but they could not get a win over Baroda in Kanpur. Jammu and Kashmir piled up 555/6 and took a 170-run first-innings lead over Pondicherry, who batted out the game thanks to Ankit Sharmas 62 in Srinagar. Andhra replied to Punjabs 592/9 with 505/8 to secure a draw. Shaik Rasheed made 176, while Karan Shinde fell four runs short of a hundred. Rain cost Jharkhand plenty of overs against Odisha, who reached 280/7 on the final day as the match was drawn. Pukhraj Manns unbeaten 153 on the final day saved the game for Himachal Pradesh against Rajasthan. All three Plate Group matches produced results. Satyajeet Bachhav followed his first-innings 6-50 with figures of 7-33 as Sikkim beat Manipur by 201 runs. Nagaland bowled out Meghalaya for 172 in the second innings to win by 122 runs. Mizoram beat Arunachal Pradesh by an innings and 29 runs, with Chinmay Sutar making 175 and Bobby Zothansanga taking five wickets in the second innings.
