When a hug and insistence to gift became a premonition

A hmedabad: A day before the Air India Flight 171 crashed, 17-year-old Prachi Gajjar unknowingly spoke the last words her best friend, Disha Thakkar, 18, would ever hear from her. "This is the last time I am giving you something," Prachi said jokingly, asking Disha to choose a birthday gift. The words became a grim premonition. Among the victims were Prachi and her father, Jayesh, who were in the Atulyam hostel delivering tiffins to her aunt and others when the plane tore through. Disha and Prachi had been best friends since Class 9, were inseparable through their school years, and even planned attending the same college the coming term. On June 11, the two spent the afternoon at Prachi's home, where she was teaching Disha computer coding when she suddenly took her to the terrace as the weather was good. Once there, overcome by emotion, she broke down and tightly hugged a surprised Disha. "She said, 'No matter what, I'll always be with you. No one can separate us'," Disha recalled. "We hugged and cried. Who knew we were saying goodbye." Afterwards, Prachi insisted on giving Disha a present for her birthday that was six months ago. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Eat 1 Teaspoon Every Night, See What Happens A Week Later [Video] getfittoday Undo Prachi dragged a protesting Disha to a garment shop, then back home, laying out her own clothes.

On the fateful day, Prachi called Disha to ask if she'd accompany her father and her to deliver tiffins at Atulyam hostel. Disha felt unwell and declined. At 12 noon, Prachi sent her an Instagram message from her father's phone: "Call me in the afternoon, I need to talk to you." Disha saw the message only that evening and replied, "Okay." At midnight, she felt a sudden urge to speak to her friend. When she called, Prachi's aunt picked up. and broke the news: Prachi, her father, and another aunt had perished. Disha fainted from shock. "I keep thinking, what if I'd gone with her, maybe things would have been different." After the accident, Disha stayed at Prachi's house for a week, going home only for nights. "I still feel her around me, her voice gently calling, 'Oye'!"

'I came for inner peace, stayed for the yoga pants'

Let's just go ahead and admit it: not everyone at that 6 a.m. sunrise yoga class is there to align their chakras. Some of us are simply trying to align our leggings with our crop tops and not fall over during Warrior III. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now We say we're on a journey to inner peace, but let's be real—somewhere between the crystal-infused essential oil sprays and the soothing sounds of Tibetan singing bowls, we got hooked on the stretchy pants and that post-class smoothie pic that hits just right on Instagram. Look, no shade. I, too, once thought yoga was a solemn path to enlightenment. I walked into my first class in an old college T-shirt and sweatpants, thinking I'd leave with a calmer mind and looser hamstrings. Instead, I left with deep insecurity about my outfit and an urgent need to Google "what is athleisure and how do I get it in my life immediately?" That was the beginning of the end—or maybe, the start of something beautiful. Within a week, I owned two pairs of name-brand yoga pants that cost more than my monthly phone bill, a stainless-steel water bottle adorned with motivational stickers ("Breathe In, Chill Out"—thank you, Etsy), and a mat in 'earth tone sage' that looked a lot like regular green, but with better marketing. Inner peace? Still pending. But did I look like someone who had their life together? Oh yes. I radiated the exact energy of someone who pretends to meditate but mostly just scrolls Pinterest in lotus pose. Now, don't get me wrong. Yoga is amazing. The breathing, the mindfulness, the stretches that somehow wring your soul out like a wet towel—it's transformative stuff. But somewhere along the way, a few of us (hi, yes, me) realized it could also be... cute. There's just something magical about the yoga lifestyle. The plant-filled studios. The way everyone smells faintly of eucalyptus and smugness. It's intoxicating. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now You go in thinking you're going to heal your inner child, and suddenly you're debating which shade of "moonstone beige" matches your reusable tote bag. And don't even get me started on yoga pants. They're the real spiritual awakening. No waistband has ever treated me so kindly. Jeans? Toxic. Slacks? Satan's fabric. But yoga pants? They cradle you. They support you. They say, 'You got this,' even when you definitely don't got this and you're in child's pose wondering if it's too early to go home and make waffles. People claim the spiritual draw of yoga is the path to enlightenment. And yes, technically, that's true. But the rest of us? We're here for the vibe. We're chasing a different kind of light—the golden hour glow on our face during an outdoor yoga class while someone plays a handpan. Nirvana, but make it aesthetic. Let's talk about the Instagram effect One hour of yoga? Great for the mind. One carefully filtered photo of yourself mid-tree pose with a scenic mountain in the background and the caption 'finding balance?" Absolutely unmatched. That photo will outlive us all. Inner peace is fleeting. Engagement is forever. To be fair, the yoga community knows how to sell serenity. There's a whole economy around achieving stillness in style. You've got moon journals, chakra-themed candles, hand-poured incense that smells like what I imagine Zendaya's aura must smell like. I bought a mala necklace once thinking it was a cool accessory. Then someone asked me what mantra I used it with. I panicked and said 'namaste,' which I now know is not a mantra and also not even correctly used in that sentence. But hey, it matched my sports bra, and that's what really matters. Of course, the best part about all this is the illusion of control. Life is chaos. The world is on fire, both metaphorically and sometimes literally. But in yoga class, you get a little bubble of calm where the only thing you have to worry about is whether your pigeon pose looks weird. It's a place where adulting pauses. Where you can say things like 'I'm really trying to open my heart chakra' and people nod instead of asking if you've paid your taxes yet. And listen, if you're one of those truly grounded people who wakes up to do sunrise yoga on the beach while listening to chanting monks and sipping ashwagandha tea, good for you. Truly. You are the goal. But for the rest of us? We'll keep showing up for the good vibes, the stretchy pants, and the 15 minutes of savasana where we can pretend our to-do lists don't exist. (Pro tip: always stay very still during savasana. If no one knows you're awake, no one can make you leave. ) At the end of the day, yoga means different things to different people. Some are there for spiritual growth. Some are healing from trauma. Some just needed a new hobby that involves lying on the floor in a dark room. And yes, some of us came for inner peace and stayed for the yoga pants. No shame in that game. Because if enlightenment happens to arrive while I'm wrapped in a buttery-soft pair of leggings and sipping a smoothie called "Zen Berry Bliss," then maybe that's the universe's way of saying: 'Hey, you're doing just fine.' Namaste—and pass the granola.
