Digital Desk | Mumbai, Oct 22 (IANS) Actress Mahhi Vij was seen breaking down while discussing her daughter Tara, financial independence and her decision to refuse alimony from Jay Bhanushali during their divorce proceedings. In the latest episode of Bigg Boss, Mahhi Vij was seen getting emotional while opening up about her daughter Tara, her upbringing and her decision to build a secure future for her child on her own. The actress revealed that the judge asked her four times to take alimony during her divorce proceedings with estranged husband Jay Bhanushali, but she refused, saying that the money was his hard-earned money. During the emotional conversation, Mahhi opened up about how her life revolves around her daughter and how she wants to ensure Tara's future is secure. I am a single mother. I know how my day goes. Jay pushes me to go out and live my life. He says, You go out, you don't go anywhere. You sit at home for Tara. My life revolves around my child. Do you know? I did not take a single alimony. I do everything on my own so that my child's life is secure. Mahhi further revealed that despite being offered alimony during the divorce proceedings, she chose not to accept it because she believed the money came from Jay's hard work. But still, I don't ask for money from anyone, neither Jay. I think it's his hard earned money. I was standing in the court , and the judge asked me four times to take the alimony. I didn't take it. I have seen Jay has earned it. She added that her decision does not stem from a lack of support from Jay, but from her own belief that he has worked hard for what he earns. Not that he has asked me not to take anything. I know his entire locker is open for me. But still. I don't think so. He has worked hard. He has been standing on sets, working for 16 hours. It's his hard-earned money. The conversation stemmed after Mahhi got into an argument with Arishfa. The disagreement began after Mahhi supported Qazi in his fight with Arishfa. The latter called out Mahhi for questioning her upbringing after Arishfa spilled water on the beds of Kanika, Gullu and Mahhi as an act of rebellion against their decision to nominate her for eviction. Mahhi said that she genuinely wanted to speak to Arishfa calmly and resolve their differences. She explained that she has always looked at Arishfa as her own little Tara, but feels that social media influencer is ill-mannered and repeatedly humiliates her. While expressing her feelings, Mahhi was seen breaking down in tears and was seen sniffling. Yung, Asif and Scout were seen trying to calm her down.

Who cut Ukraine's Starlink speeds? White House and Musk offer conflicting accounts.
U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio on Wednesday pushed back against suggestions that the Trump administration had ordered Elon Musks Starlink and its military-grade counterpart, Starshield, to limit Ukraines access to the satellite communications networks, saying any such decisions were up to the SpaceX founder and not the White House. We cannot direct a private company as to the decisions they make or not make, Rubio told reporters on an overseas trip in Mumbai. Rubio had stated previously that nobody had ordered Starlinks speed to be slowed down, adding that it just sort of happened. The secretary of state spoke by phone with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Tuesday in an effort to ease tensions. Appearing on Fox & Friends on Wednesday, Zelensky said that Starlink connectivity is still limited in Ukraine and was told by Rubio that the U.S. State Department would work to unblock the slowdown. What is Starshield and why is it so important to Ukraine? Ukraine soldiers set up a Starlink satellite communication terminal in the Donetsk region on Oct. 16. NurPhoto via Getty Images Starshield is a low-earth satellite network designed by SpaceX for government use. According to SpaceX , Starshield leverages Starlink technology and launch capability to support national security efforts. The Ukrainian military has been using the system for communications between its armed forces, allowing Kyiv to carry out drone strikes against Russia. Earlier this month, officials in Kyiv said they discovered that Ukraines access to Starshield had been throttled by SpaceX, limiting its ability to defend itself from Russian ballistic missile attacks on energy infrastructure. The Wall Street Journal reported on Tuesday that Musk ordered the slowdown after discussions with President Trump about Ukraines recent attacks on Russias diesel refineries, which Trump has blamed for skyrocketing U.S. fuel prices. Elon Musk speaks at the 2020 Satellite Conference and Exhibition in Washington. ASSOCIATED PRESS Musk capped the speeds at which Ukrainian hardware could stay connected to the satellite-based network, the Journal reported, rendering some offensive drones and interceptor drones virtually useless. Last week, the Telegraph reported that Musk has approached Trump with the idea of slowing down Starlink in Ukraine, and that Trump agreed. In a post on X , Musk said Starshield systems are owned and controlled by the US government and that any limits on speed or usage are decided by the US military and ultimately POTUS. Starshield systems are owned and controlled by the US government. Any limits on speed or usage are decided by the US military and ultimately POTUS. Starlink is a commercial service owned and controlled by SpaceX. Usage of Starlink is limited to civilian or defensive activities Elon Musk (@elonmusk) October 14, 2026 In response, Trump denied any involvement , saying: I don't know if it was anybody, but it wasn't me, and I don't think it was Elon. On Wednesday, Rubio insisted that neither the president nor anyone in the administration ever requested that any changes to that system be made. But he would not say whether the United States was aware of the decision to limit Ukraines access to Starshield beforehand. Im not going to comment on what we knew that they might or might not do, Rubio said. The president has nothing to do with the decisions that are made by Starlink and Starshield and by Mr. Musk, the secretary continued. Thats a private company. The president doesnt run that company and cant direct that company to do anything. He added: Im telling you there was no foreknowledge, but beyond it, even if there was, we dont control what a private company how they decide their product can be used. Rubio: If not for U.S., there would be no Ukraine right now A young woman reacts as she looks at her damaged home after a Russian missile attack in Kyiv on Oct. 14. Efrem Lukatsky/AP The secretary also took issue with comments by Serhii Flash Beskrestnov, one of Ukrainian Zelenskys military advisers, who told the BBC that U.S. intelligence had also failed to give Ukraine advance warnings of incoming Russian ballistic missile strikes, resulting in the deaths of civilians. I dont know who this official was in the Ukrainian Government that went around saying that a bunch of people had died as a result of what America was denying them, Rubio said. No country in the world has done more to help Ukraine over the last four and a half years than the United States, including under the Trump administration, and that continues to be the case. He added: Were no longer going to be defensive about this topic, OK? Because if it were not for the assistance of the United States, including under the Trump administration, there would be no Ukraine right now.

Car registrations plunge 22% this Navratri
Mumbai: Even as carmakers said deliveries this Navratri were robust, car registrations declined sharply, according to provisional data from the Federation of Automobile Dealers Associations (FADA). Passenger vehicle registrations fell 21.9% to 1.83 lakh units between October 11 and 20, the steepest drop among all vehicle categories.The fall largely reflects a high base. Last year's Navratri coincided with the rollout of GST 2.0, after sales had come to a standstill for half of August and almost all of September. This year, momentum continued even through Shradh, a period considered inauspicious.Also Read: Navratri shoppers splurge on clothes, appliances as gadgets get pricierThe dip is largely optical: last year Navratri ran 11 days against ten and coincided with the GST 2.0 rollout, said FADA president Sai Giridhar.Maruti Suzuki India, the largest carmaker, said Navratri deliveries were about 98% of last year, and it could have sold more with better supply. Non-availability of vehicles is an issue. If I had more, we would have sold more. Every dealer is asking for more, said Partho Banerjee, senior executive officer-sales and marketing at Maruti. The company gets 12,000-12,500 bookings daily but can supply only 8,000-8,500. Pending bookings rose to 2.7 lakh after Dussehra from about 2 lakh at the start of October.Also Read: Carmakers gear up with multi-powertrain models as Indian buyers shift beyond petrol, dieselJATO Dynamics data shows registrations of petrol, diesel and CNG cars at the top makers fell 5.2% to 1.69 lakh units. Maruti registered 74,387 cars, up 0.1%. Tata Motors fell 16.4% to 24,843 units, Hyundai 2.7% to 19,706 and Kia 9.3% to 9,731, while Mahindra & Mahindra rose 6.6% to 20,681. It said electric car registrations also fell 5.1% to 11,478 units.Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles said demand remained strong. The response during Navratri has been particularly encouraging, with over 50,000 vehicles delivered during this festive period, including more than 10,000 on Dussehra alone, said Amit Kamat, chief commercial officer, Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles.Hyundai Motor India said registrations during Shradh and Navratri grew 30% to nearly 41,000 units. Considering the pace of bookings, we expect momentum to continue through Dhanteras and Diwali, said chief executive officer Tarun Garg.Dealers said the real picture will emerge in a few days. We will get to know the real picture after a few days as Vahan portal captures registration with a lag, said a dealer principal.

England Players Free To Skip T20Is Against Sri Lanka If WPL Teams Reach Knockouts
Sri Lanka Cricket: England players, including skipper Nat Sciver-Brunt, will be free to skip the three-match T20I series in Sri Lanka if their respective franchises reach the knockout stage of the Women's Premier League (WPL) 2027, which runs from January 14 to February 7 next year. Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) announced the white-ball tour itinerary on Wednesday, with the T20Is in Pallekele on February 1, 3 and 5 as preparation for the inaugural Women's T20 Champions Trophy, to be played in India from February 14 to 28. After the tournament is over, England will return for three ODIs in Dambulla on March 4, 6 and 8 respectively. If the England players are in the knockouts of the WPL, then they can continue to play for their respective WPL team due to the late-changing nature of the itinerary for the Champions Trophy, a source in the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) told IANS on Wednesday. The Champions Trophy was originally slated to happen in Sri Lanka in June-July 2027 before the ICC advanced the dates and moved it to India, after the island nation was stripped of hosting rights over government interference in the governing bodys administration. Apart from Sciver-Brunt, who plays for Mumbai Indians, Lauren Bell (Royal Challengers Bengaluru) and Sophie Ecclestone (UP Warriorz) have been retained for the 2027 WPL. Sophia Dunkley and Kira Chathli are the only England players registered for the WPL mini auction to be held on October 28 in Kochi.

Tech overtakes brand in car-buying choices
Mumbai: Technology and features have emerged as the top considerations influencing car-purchase decisions in India, ahead of brand, as consumers increasingly expect advanced features across price segments, according to a Bain & Co report.The finding points to a shift in purchase priorities, with service ranking third and price fourth among the top considerations listed by car buyers in a Bain survey. While India remains a price-sensitive market, access to vehicle financing and aspirations to upgrade are influencing buying decisions, the survey found.The tech features that come along with the brand and effectively explain the value for money that consumers are getting become a much stronger differentiator, Rahul Mishra, partner at Bain & Co, told ET.Also Read | Navratri vehicle sales hit a speed bump, but EVs race ahead 27%: FADAFeatures that were once largely confined to luxury vehicles are increasingly becoming standard in mass-market cars priced between 15 lakh and 30 lakh, Mishra said. Automakers will need to ensure their offerings deliver the latest technology while retaining brand credibility and affordability, he added.Brand loyalty, however, remains strong. The survey found that 68% of premium car buyers and 71% of mass-market buyers considered only established brands during their last purchase. New entrants will need to offer differentiated products and establish what their brand and technology stand for to enter the consumers consideration sets, Mishra said.Based on an online survey of more than 12,000 automotive consumers globally in the first quarter of 2026, the report also found that nearly 80% of Indian buyers use AI during their vehicle purchase journey. Usage was particularly high among younger consumers, at around 90% for Gen Y and Gen Z, compared with about 79% among older generations.Also Read | Auto companies ride on a low base to deliver robust 22% sales in SeptemberThe buying journey continues to span digital and physical channels, with dealerships remaining important in vehicle evaluation and purchase completion.Electric vehicles offer another opportunity for automakers.

Among consumers who had test-driven a BEV, 82% said they would consider buying one, compared with 66% of those who had not.Mishra said automakers and dealers must reduce friction between a customer requesting a test drive and actually experiencing the vehicle, while using consumer data and technology to develop products suited to future demand.

Rubio was also dismissive of the reference to UN experts criticism of the protests. The UN experts are the oxymoron, said Rubio, who is currently in India on an official visit. It's a domestic political matter.I'm not going to get involved in their politics. This is a democracy. They have elections here, so I'm not going to opine on their domestic political matters, he said. He said that even the US witnesses protests every day and are reflective of the political discourse and difference of opinion. We have protests every day in the United States. People view protests obviously Im not talking about the riots, like what you're seeing in Europe, where theyre vandalising and breaking into things and burning down buildings.I'm not talking about that, Rubio said. But in many ways, the fact that people are out there expressing themselves Im not talking about India; in any country in the world is the sign that this is a country where there's political discourse and so forth and differences of opinion, he said. We're not going to comment on internal political matters. That's for the Indian people to decide and navigate, Rubio said.
