Love or scam? NEET UG 2025 topper features in multiple coaching centre ads; social media questions the rationale
A viral video has sparked a funny yet serious debate in the coaching world. Keshav Mittal, a 17-year-old from Punjab's Barnala, topped NEET UG 2025 with All India Rank 7 in his first try. Now, three big coaching centres, Allen, Motion and Narayana, are all claiming him as their student. Each institute shared congratulatory posts, proudly linking Keshav's success to their teaching. This has confused everyone and created a storm on social media. Memes and jokes are everywhere, with people asking how one student can belong to three rival institutes at once. 'It's love, not a scam. Coaching people for Keshav,' wrote the X (formerly Twitter) user who shared the viral video. 'Everyone has shared it on their own Instagram and Facebook. I've lost trust in all these institutes — when they're the ones doing scams, what will happen to the students?' reacted one user. One user clarified, 'This child was a regular classroom student in one coaching centre, and had joined the test series in another coaching centre.' 'It's also possible that Keshav's family might have taken money and sold the rank to the coaching institute for publicity,' alleged another user. One user wrote, 'Can't you even understand something as simple as this: students take tests from different coaching centres, sometimes they even take coaching from different places.' Keshav Mittal, a 17-year-old student from Tapa town in Punjab's Barnala district, has secured All-India Rank 7 in the NEET UG exam. He has scored 680 out of 720 marks. This was his first attempt at the national medical entrance test, and he is the highest scorer from Punjab this year. Keshav studied at DM Public Senior Secondary School in Karar Wala, Bathinda. He took coaching from a private institute in Chandigarh, according to HT. Keshav followed a daily study routine of 8 to 9 hours. The National Testing Agency (NTA), which conducts NEET every year, announced the results on June 14.

Throwback: When Mohanlal's headstand pose went viral on International Yoga Day
(Picture Courtesy: Facebook) As the world celebrates International Yoga Day today, let's take a look at the time Mohanlal, the "Complete Actor" of Mollywood, made headlines with his awe-inspiring headstand pose (Shirshasana) that took the internet by storm. 'To celebrate mind, body...' Back in 2017, Mohanlal shared a striking image on Facebook where he was seen balancing flawlessly in a Shirshasana. Known for his agility and body control even in his 50s, the image showcased not just his physical flexibility but also his deep commitment to the ancient discipline of yoga. Alongside the photo, he captioned, 'To celebrate mind, body and soul – practice Yoga. #Yogaday.' Kannappa - Official Kannada Trailer Netizens react - Even 22 year old me can't do this... The post instantly went viral, receiving massive attention from fans and fitness enthusiasts. With over 47,000 likes, thousands of comments, and countless shares, the photo quickly became a motivational symbol of strength and balance. One comment read, "22 വയസ് ആയ എനിക്ക് പോലും ഇത് പോലെ ചെയ്യാൻ പറ്റില്ല എന്നിട്ട് ഏട്ടന് ഇ പ്രയത്തില്ലും ഇത് ചെയ്യാൻ കഴിയുന്നു ലാലേട്ടാ നിങ്ങൾ annuu super star..... Waiting 4 villain. .." Another one wrote, "ഈ പ്രായത്തിലും ഇങ്ങനെയൊക്കെ കാണിക്കണമെങ്കിൽ ആളുടെ പേര് മോഹൻലാൽ എന്നായിരിക്കണം.(To be able to pull off something like this even at this age, the person's name has to be Mohanlal.)" A fitness icon at any age Mohanlal's dedication to fitness is no secret in the industry. Directors and co-actors have often praised his youthful energy and ability to perform physically demanding roles with ease. In 2021, Mohanlal once again used Yoga Day as an opportunity to advocate for mental and physical well-being. That year, he shared a peaceful photo of himself in meditation, encouraging fans to embrace yoga as part of their daily routine. His caption read, 'Practice Yoga for a healthy life #InternationalDayOfYoga #YogaDay.' These moments show that for Mohanlal, yoga is not just an occasional display but a way of life. Whether performing a difficult headstand or sitting in calm reflection, he continues to inspire millions to find balance, discipline, and peace through yoga. Work front On the work front, Mohanlal was last seen in 'Thudarum' which earned 3 stars out of 5 from ETimes, and our review read, "Jakes Bejoy's music elevates the scenes, making a real impact in the storytelling. Shaji Kumar's cinematography is excellent and it is perfectly coordinated with the edits by Shafeeque VB and Nishadh Yusuf. Their collective work lay the ground for the mood of the film. Tharun, whose last film Saudi Vellakka won a National Awards, could have done better to have created a more subtle story; this very much has an '80s-'90s feel. For Mohanlal fans, his raw magnetism might be exciting, but with its loud and overwritten scenes, the acting lacks nuance all around."

What's behind Alia Bhatt's toned body and magic waist? Her diet secrets and workout regime
On June 20, 2025, Alia Bhatt was photographed stepping out of her regular fitness class, effortlessly putting to rest ongoing speculation about a possible second pregnancy. Dressed in sleek black treggings paired with a matching sleeveless crop top that showed off her toned midriff, Alia exuded confidence and radiance. Her minimal makeup and softly tied half-bun hairstyle gave her a naturally glowing look. As she waved cheerfully to the photographers, her visibly toned waistline spoke volumes, leaving no room for further conjecture. Despite fans recently assuming she was expecting again—especially after her appearance at the Cannes Film Festival, where she was seen gently touching her stomach—Alia's latest outing left no doubt: she's simply staying fit, not pregnant. While shedding postpartum weight can be challenging, Alia Bhatt revealed in several interviews how there's no shortcut to losing weight post-pregnancy and being slow yet steady is the key. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Dukung Orang Terkasih Menghadapi Limfoma: Mulai Di Sini Limfoma Baca Undo A Thoughtful, Gradual Weight Loss Journey Following the birth of her daughter, Raha Kapoor, Alia Bhatt took a patient, science-based approach to regaining her strength and fitness. Rather than resorting to quick fixes or unsafe methods, Alia emphasized healing and balance. In a 2022 interview with Vogue India , she shared that she refused to jump into intense workouts or deprive her body post-childbirth. She gave herself the necessary time to recover, starting workouts only once cleared by her medical team. When Actress Dismissed 'Unnatural' Weight Loss Rumours In another Vogue interview in 2023, Alia had debunked several unfounded claims that she had resorted to unnatural methods to shed post-pregnancy weight. She confirmed she worked out six days a week, even during her pregnancy, staying active under expert guidance. Her regime included a mix of yoga, Pilates, and strength training—all focused on long-term well-being over immediate results. "Many folks are under the impression that individuals who work in the visual medium do unnatural things to their bodies to get back in shape post-delivery. That's why I felt like it was important to document parts of my fitness journey on Instagram. I didn't put any pressure on myself.." she said. Nutritional Strategy Backed by Science Alia's nutritionist, Dr. Siddhant Bhargava, provided further insight into her disciplined approach in a 2024 interview with Humans of Bombay. He shared that Alia had a clear vision—she wanted her weight management both during and after pregnancy to be scientifically sound yet manageable. The duo worked together to monitor her diet monthly, modifying her intake based on her baby's development and her own physical condition. This careful monitoring ensured that Alia stayed healthy throughout her motherhood journey, and when the time came to lose weight, her body responded efficiently without shock or strain. Dr. Bhargava highlighted that it wasn't an effortless journey, but Alia was well-prepared and committed. Her discipline and awareness helped her navigate postpartum health challenges with confidence and clarity. Current Career Moves and Upcoming Projects Alia Bhatt continues to juggle motherhood and her film career with grace. She was last seen in Jigra, an action-thriller directed by Vasan Bala. In the film, she portrayed a fierce sister determined to free her wrongly accused brother. Despite a promising premise, the movie received lukewarm reviews and wrapped up its box-office run with around Rs 55 crore. Looking ahead, Alia is set to star alongside Ranbir Kapoor and Vicky Kaushal in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's highly anticipated epic Love & War. Additionally, she will take center stage in the female-led action film Alpha, showcasing yet another bold chapter in her career.
