Iranian boat carrying drugs worth Rs 3,000 crore seized in Lakshadweep, five Pak nationals held (Ld)
Digital Desk | Ahmedabad, Sep 30 (IANS) A Nigerian national allegedly acted as a link between a Gujarat-based wanted accused and a wider drug network that planned to move a 526-kg consignment of methamphetamine and heroin to Punjab, Gujarat ATS officials said on Wednesday, adding that the Iranian boat carrying the drugs used a Starlink device to communicate with handlers while at sea. The consignment, comprising around 400 kg of methamphetamine and 126 kg of heroin, was seized from the Iranian boat 'Azad' in the Arabian Sea west of Lakshadweep on September 25. Five Pakistani nationals on board were apprehended, and the vessel was brought to Mumbai for further investigation. Gujarat ATS DIG Sunil Joshi said the agency had received intelligence about a meeting in Ahmedabad between a Nigerian national and a wanted accused from the state in connection with the planned import of more than 500 kg of narcotics. According to the ATS, the original plan was to transfer the consignment to a Tamil Nadu fishing boat in Indian waters, unload it on the Tamil Nadu coast and then transport it onwards. The drugs were ultimately intended for Punjab, from where they could have been distributed to other parts of north India, officials said. Joshi said the investigation had established a link with Pakistan-based drug smuggler Haji Salim, describing him as a supplier and a key figure in the network. Haji Salim has his network in Punjab, Joshi said, adding that the consignment belonged to his network and had been sent by him. He said the five Pakistani nationals arrested from the 'Azad' were also believed to be part of the same network, though their precise roles were still being investigated. The ATS also found that the boat was equipped with a Starlink device. Officials said the system could provide internet connectivity in international waters and could be used for communication, including WhatsApp calls, with handlers in Pakistan. The use of the device is now part of the investigation into how the maritime network coordinated the movement of the consignment. The Nigerian national who allegedly attended the Ahmedabad meeting is also being investigated. Joshi said Nigerians have emerged in several drug-trafficking networks as intermediaries, peddlers and, in some cases, people operating networks within India. The Nigerian linked to the present case had appeared in connection with narcotics activity elsewhere, though not previously in a Gujarat ATS case, he added. The ATS said it had information identifying the intended receiver in Punjab but was withholding details while efforts to trace the network continued. We know where it was supposed to go, but we will not disclose it at present, Joshi said. The intelligence was shared with the Indian Coast Guards headquarters in Delhi, following which a joint team was formed. Gujarat ATS officers B.H. Korat and V.N. Vaghela were sent to Kochi and joined Coast Guard personnel for maritime surveillance. The operation involved sustained tracking of suspicious boats over a large maritime area. On September 25, the 'Azad' was located around 160 nautical miles northwest of Lakshadweep and approximately 490 nautical miles southwest of Mumbai. Officials told IANS that the Coast Guard used smaller boats to surround the vessel during the interception, helping prevent the suspects from throwing the narcotics overboard. Such precautions were important because dumping the consignment into the sea would have made recovery difficult, they added. The operation resulted in the seizure of 526 kg of high-grade heroin and methamphetamine valued at over Rs 3,000 crore, alongside the apprehension of five Pakistani crew members, the Indian Coast Guard said in a statement. The five accused were identified as Mohammad Yakub Balochi, Shakirullah, Faridullah, Ahmad Khan and Wahidullah Khan, all residents of Peshawar in Pakistan. Preliminary questioning indicated that the 'Azad' had sailed from the Konarak area of Iran and received the narcotics from a smaller boat originating from Gwadar, Pakistan. A case has been registered with the Gujarat ATS, and further investigation is underway to identify the remaining members of the network, including the wanted accused from Gujarat, the Nigerian intermediary and the intended receivers in Punjab.

India Eyes Chinas Sensitive Xinjiang Air Route To Bypass Pakistan Airspace
India is exploring an alternative air route through Chinas Xinjiang as the continued closure of Pakistani airspace forces Indian airlines to take longer routes to Europe and North America. The proposed Hotan route could offer a shorter alternative, with flights from Delhi and Mumbai potentially heading towards Leh, entering Chinese airspace near Hotan, and then connecting through Kyrgyzstan to existing routes towards the West. But the plan faces several challenges, including high-altitude terrain, limited emergency diversion options and aircraft safety requirements. Air India and IndiGo have been examining the routes feasibility, while diplomatic discussions between India and China are underway. With longer detours increasing fuel use and operating costs, the Hotan proposal could become an important alternative if the route is eventually approved and operationally cleared.

Indias Arabian Sea Drug Bust: 526 Kg Narcotics Seized From Iranian Boat, 5 Pakistani Nationals Held

Sensex, Nifty extend losing streak to 3rd day amid weak global cues
Digital Desk | Mumbai, Sep 30 (IANS) Benchmark equity indices ended lower for the third consecutive session on Wednesday as a rebound in crude oil prices dampened investor sentiment amid fading hopes of a breakthrough in talks between the US and Iran. The Sensex slipped 48.78 points, or 0.07 per cent, to close at 72,480.29, while the Nifty declined 95.75 points, or 0.42 per cent, to settle at 22,620.45. Commenting on Nifty technical outlook, experts said that on the downside, 22,60022,550 remains the immediate support zone, while a sustained break below 22,500 could expose the index to the 22,300 level. On the options front, Call OI stands at around 17.11 crore against Put OI of around 10.96 crore, indicating stronger Call-side positioning. Significant Call OI is visible around the 22,70023,000 strikes, with 23,000 carrying the highest Call OI, keeping overhead resistance elevated, market watchers stated. The closing setup remains weak, with 22,60022,550 as the key support zone and 22,800 as the immediate resistance, analysts added. Selling pressure was visible in healthcare and pharmaceutical stocks, with Apollo Hospitals Enterprise, Max Healthcare Institute and BSE emerging among the top losers in the Nifty index. The broader market, however, showed resilience. The Nifty MidCap 100 index edged up 0.02 per cent, while the Nifty SmallCap index gained 0.27 per cent. Among sectoral indices, Nifty Realty, Nifty Private Bank and Nifty Media ended with gains, supported by stock-specific buying. On the other hand, Nifty Healthcare, Nifty Pharma, Nifty Consumer Durables and Nifty Metal were the worst-performing sectors of the day. Experts said that market participants remained cautious as higher crude oil prices rekindled concerns about inflationary pressures and their potential impact on corporate earnings and economic growth. Market participants are likely to remain selective, favouring fundamentally strong businesses with resilient earnings profiles until there is greater clarity on the macroeconomic outlook, analysts added.

The trailer of Rajkummar Rao's much-awaited Prahaar: The Ujjwal Nikam Story is out, and while Rao impresses as special public prosecutor Ujjwal Nikam, it is the final reveal that has everyone talking. The actor unrecognisable as Ajmal Kasab, the lone terrorist captured alive during the 26/11 Mumbai attacks, is none other than Lalit Prabhakar.

Critically acclaimed across platforms: Lalit's biggest milestone came with Sameer Vidwans' Anandi Gopal (2019), in which he played Gopalrao Joshi, the progressive husband of Anandibai Joshi, one of India's first women physicians. The film won two National Awards, and Lalit's performance earned him the Filmfare Marathi Best Actor (Critics) award, Best Actor at the Pune International Film Festival and Best Actor at the Zee Chitra Gaurav Puraskar. The accolades have only continued. In 2026, he received a Jury Special Mention at the Pune International Film Festival for Toh Ti Ani Fuji, an India-Japan romance that also drew international attention. Lalit Prabhakar's Versatility Across Genres: Over the years, Lalit has built a reputation for never repeating himself. He has played a charming romantic in Hampi, taken on a double role in the horror-comedy Zombivli, and won praise for slice-of-life dramas like Medium Spicy and Sunny. He has also backed films that reflect contemporary lives and relationships. Super Duperr (2026), a family comedy-drama about two households forced to share one home, was loved by critics and audiences alike. Aarpar (2025), an intense love story, fetched him a Filmfare Marathi Best Actor nomination and the Zee Chitra Gaurav award for Best Jodi with Hruta Durgule. On OTT, he has featured in popular series such as Shantit Kranti, Pet Puraan and The Raikar Case. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Hruta Durgule (@hruta12) Lalit is effortlessly taking up challenging roles, especially real-life characters. After Gopalrao Joshi in Anandi Gopal and Ajmal Kasab in Prahaar, he will next be seen as Dalit Panther co-founder and Padma Shri poet Namdeo Dhasal in the biopic Dhasal. The film features music by Ilaiyaraaja, and his first look as Dhasal, crafted by veteran make-up artist Shrikant Desai, has already created a buzz.

Digital Desk | Mumbai, Sep 30 (IANS) Filmmaker and television host Karan Johar has announced the final season of his much-loved celebrity chat show Koffee With Karan.

I want to get two celebrities or stars and just have an informal, candid chat with them. And he looked at me and said, Karan, youre going to call your friends, chat with them. You do that every day. Who is going to pay to do that? He passed away that month, actually. On the 26th of June, he passed away. Give me two minutes. Im good to go. And the very first day I shot for it was August 16, 2004. And I am here now eight seasons later, 22 years later, 161 episodes later. Speaking about the final season, Karan Johar said, There are some journeys you don't plan to end, you simply know, somewhere deep within you, when it is time to let them go. Koffee With Karan has been an extraordinary part of my life. It has given me friendships, memories, moments of complete madness, a lot of love and, yes, its fair share of controversy! But through all of it, what has remained constant is the audience. The filmmaker added, They have laughed with us, debated us, trolled us, celebrated us and, most importantly, kept coming back for another cup. Saying goodbye is emotional, but it also feels right. This final season is my way of raising the mug one last time with gratitude, with love and with everyone who has made Koffee With Karan what it is. So, come have one last cup of Koffee with me. One last time. Alok Jain, Head of Hindi & English Entertainment Business (Streaming, TV & Studios), JioStar, said, Koffee With Karan is the talk show that brought the biggest celebrities into viewers living rooms and built a fandom that very few shows have matched. For over two decades, it has given audiences an intimate, irreverent, and often unexpected glimpse into the lives of the people they love watching, becoming a part of a pop culture phenomenon. As Karan raises the coffee mug one last time, we celebrate the extraordinary legacy of a show that has consistently delivered great content and created a lasting connection with audiences. At JioHotstar, we remain committed to bringing audiences the very best in entertainment, and we are delighted to bring this final chapter of Koffee With Karan to them. The final season of Koffee With Karan will premiere on 14th October on JioHotstar.

Shiv Sena (UBT) leader shot dead in Thane; one arrested, another detained
Digital Desk | Thane, Sep 30 (IANS) Shiv Sena (UBT) leader, Pradeep Purnekar, was shot dead in Maharashtras Thane on Tuesday night, with police intensifying their investigation into the killing on Wednesday. One suspect has been formally arrested, while another is being questioned in connection with the case. The attack took place at around 9 p.m. in the Manpada-Manorama Nagar area, near Purnekars office and within the jurisdiction of the Kapurbawdi police station. According to police, unidentified assailants opened fire at Purnekar, hitting him twice. He was rushed to a hospital on Ghodbunder Road, where he died while undergoing treatment. CCTV footage examined by investigators showed that one of the two detained suspects was present at the scene during the firing and was allegedly involved in the conspiracy, while the other reportedly provided a vehicle to the two accused who carried out the shooting. One of the suspects has been formally arrested, while the other is being questioned by police. Investigators are also looking for other people who may have been involved in the attack and are examining CCTV footage from the area and surrounding roads to establish the sequence of events and trace the suspects movements. Pradeep Purnekars body was sent to Mumbais JJ Hospital on Wednesday morning for a post-mortem examination, DCP Prashant Kadam said. After the post-mortem, a detailed report will be available, he said. Reacting to the killing, Shiv Sena (UBT) spokesperson Anand Dubey raised concerns over the law-and-order situation in Maharashtra. What has happened to Maharashtra? There are so many criminals, mafias, and murderers roaming freely that I cannot even tell you. Whether it is Pune, Nagpur, Nashik, Mumbai, and now Thane, late last night, a senior leader of our party, Shiv Sena (UBT), was shot dead Dubey told IANS. Reports said the attackers were wearing helmets and masks. Police are examining footage from multiple cameras and other evidence to identify all those involved and determine how the accused fled the scene. The killing has also raised questions about a possible connection with a proposed agitation against a local builder. Purnekar had reportedly announced plans to stage a protest over alleged irregularities by a local builder and had sought permission from the Kapurbawdi police for the demonstration. However, police have not confirmed any link between the proposed protest or the builder dispute and the killing. Investigators are examining multiple possible motives, including political rivalry and personal enmity. The exact reason behind the attack remains under investigation.
Digital Desk | Mumbai, Sep 30 (IANS) Actress Avika Gor has opened up about her first year of marriage with Milind Chandwani. In an exclusive quote shared with IANS, the Balika Vadhu actress shared the lessons she has learned about love, companionship, understanding, and navigating the everyday realities of married life. Looking back at the first year, Avika said marriage has taught her that love is not always about grand romantic gestures but is often found in understanding each other and being there as a team. Sharing what the first year of marriage has taught her, the actress stated, This first year has taught me that marriage is basically finding your favourite person and then deciding to annoy each other for the rest of your lives! But on a more serious note, Ive realized that love is much more about understanding than grand gestures. Its knowing when to give each other space, when to listen, when to laugh things off and, most importantly, knowing that youre on the same team even when youre arguing about something completely ridiculous. Ive also learnt that companionship is about finding comfort in the most ordinary moments, like doing absolutely nothing together and still feeling like youre exactly where youre supposed to be. And yes, Ive learnt that sometimes the best way to keep the peace is to just admit youre wrong, even when youre very clearly not in your head. Sometimes, going deeper and reflecting doesn't just help your relationship but also helps you become a better human. Avika also opened up about how marriage has changed her perspective on love. She shared, Definitely. Before marriage, I think we romanticise love a lot, the big moments, the dates, the surprises, the butterflies. After marriage, you realize love is also about grocery lists, deciding what to eat for dinner for the 400th time, sharing responsibilities and tolerating each others weird little habits. It has made me realise that a good relationship isnt about finding someone who agrees with you all the time, but someone who understands you, challenges you, makes you laugh and still chooses you at the end of the day. Marriage has made love feel less like a feeling and more like a very conscious, everyday choice and somehow, that makes it even more beautiful. Talking about her idea of a perfect anniversary celebration with Milind, Avika added, Honestly, anything that doesnt involve checking the time every five minutes! Id want it to be a mix of romance, gym, good food, a little adventure, dressing up for each other, and spending proper quality time together. I love experiences, so Id much rather create a crazy memory together than just have a fancy dinner and call it a day. But ultimately, the perfect anniversary is really just the two of us being ourselves. laughing too much, teasing each other, taking far too many pictures, probably having one tiny argument over something completely unnecessary, and then ending the night thinking, Okay, Id still choose you. Avika Gor tied the knot with her longtime boyfriend, Milind Chandwani, on September 30, 2025, on the sets of the reality television show Pati Patni Aur Panga.

Digital Desk | Mumbai, Sep 30 (IANS) Singer Nick Jonas recently opened up about a hilarious behind-the-scenes moment involving his four-year-old daughter Malti Marie, recalling an almost awkward moment when the little one unexpectedly barged into their green room just before a show. In a podcast conversation, Nick recounted the incident involving Malti and his wife, actress Priyanka Chopra Jonas. He said the best part of the night was not the show itself, but what happened backstage when Malti decided to walk into the room where Nick, Kevin and Joe were getting ready. Recalling the incident, Nick said, The best part about the whole night was actually not the show and not trying to make anybody mad. Hold on. Its what happened during the show. Malti Marie and Priyanka were there and, you know, the protocol is to just sort of knock and then, but theres no door into the stage, its just curtains. You cant knock a curtain. He added, Malti was very excited and, obviously, shes four and a half, so she just kind of burst into the room. Luckily, we were all in our boxer briefs and stuff, tank tops, actually. She looks at us and she goes, Oh, you are in summer clothes. It was perfect. It was so funny. For the uninitiated, Priyanka and Malti have frequently been seen attending Nick's performances and supporting him from the audience. Just months ago, the mother-daughter duo were seen cheering and dancing at a Jonas Brothers concert, showing their support for Nick. Nick performs alongside his brothers Kevin Jonas and Joe Jonas as part of the Jonas Brothers. Nick Jonas and Priyanka Chopra Jonas welcomed their first child, Malti Marie in January 2022 through surrogacy.
Digital Desk | Mumbai, Sep 30 (IANS) Legendary actor Shammi Kapoors wife Neila Devi recalled an unforgettable birthday of hers from the year 1968. She revealed that the legendary actor could not attend her birthday party despite being the person she most wanted to see on her special day and later had to make up for missing the occasion for the rest of his life. Neila Devi, who was seen in a conversation with her nephew and actor Jatin Sial, the grandson of Prithviraj Kapoor, opened up about the memorable incident while discussing birthdays and her association with her legendary actor husband. When Jatin asked her about a birthday she particularly remembered, Neila Devi recalled the one where Shammi Kapoor ditched her on her birthday, before they got married. You will be surprised, there was this birthday where he didn't come only. That's the best part. Actually, you know, I can't blame him too much. It was my birthday. My brother had a party for me. They asked me, Whom do you want to invite? Is there anyone special? And I said, Yes, Shammi Kapoor, said Neila. It was in 1968. I wasn't married to him but I was a fan of his from my childhood. I hadn't even met him personally. I had never talked to him or anything. So my brother phoned him. He said, I would have loved to come, but I have just come from Calcutta. I had gone for the premiere of Brahmachari and I have come back unwell, so I can't come. So my brother said, Okay. But he said, I will make up for it, because she is my fan, so whatever I can do for her, I will do. And after that, he had to make up for it all his life, quipped Neila. The revelation further became all the more interesting when Neila revealed that by January 1969, just in four months after her birthday, she was married to Shammi Kapoor For the uninitiated, Neila Devi and Shammi Kapoor tied the knot on January 27, 1969, at Shammi's residence in Mumbai in the presence of their families and close friends. Before Neila, Shammi was married to actress Geeta Bali. The two fell in love while working together and married in 1955. They had two children, Aditya Raj Kapoor and Kanchan. Their marriage, however, was tragically cut short when Geeta died in January 1965 at the age of 34 after contracting smallpox. Reportedly, Geeta's untimely death had left Shammi devastated. At the time, he was shooting for Teesri Manzil, and the tragedy had a profound impact on him. According to reports back then, Shammi withdrew from the shoot and went into depression after Geeta's death. When he eventually returned to work, the first song he filmed was Tumne Mujhe Dekha, and the pain on his face was visible and became a part of the sequence's emotional impact. Neila entered Shammi's life many years after Geeta's death. The two had actually known each other since Neila was a child. Shammi Kapoor, known for his energetic screen presence, and fun dancing style and films such as Tumsa Nahin Dekha, Dil Deke Dekho, Junglee, Professor, Kashmir Ki Kali, Teesri Manzil, An Evening in Paris, Brahmachari and Prince, remained one of Hindi cinema's defining stars of the 1950s and 1960s. Shammi Kapoor passed away on August 14, 2011, at the age of 79. He had been suffering from chronic kidney failure and was hospitalised in Mumbai in the days preceding his death.
