In an unusual turn of events, a pilgrim visiting Vaishno Devi found a creative way to manage an unexpected delay during his journey. Instead of booking a hotel room, he chose to spend the night watching a film, turning the situation into a cost-saving experience. Madhav, who went on a pilgrimage to Vaishno Devi, shared his experience on Twitter (formerly Twitter). He explained that as soon as he arrived at the pilgrimage site, he learned that the pilgrimage had been suspended. Since night darshan was not possible, he had to make arrangements for accommodation. At the same time, the rent for a night in nearby hotels was around Rs 1,500, so he began considering other options. To save money, Madhav decided to watch a night show of Dhurandhar 2 for Rs 300. The 3-hour, 49-minute film provided a comfortable way to spend the night. Check Out The Post Here: Vaishno Devi aaya tha, lekin yahan aake pata chala ki yatra band ho gayi hai.

The Australian all-rounder Ellyse Perry hailed India skipper Harmanpreet Kaur and Jemimah Rodrigues for batting India into the ICC Women's ODI World Cup final, saying their composure under pressure earned applause even from the Australian dressing room. India pulled off the highest successful run chase in women's ODIs to book a place in Sunday's title clash with South Africa, ending Australia's reign as champions. “It's really easy to stand here in retrospect and throw ideas into the wind,” Perry said when asked if Australia could have done anything differently. “But at the end of the day, all of us in our dressing room would applaud Harman and Jemi for the way that they played, the way that they went about that chase after probably losing two early wickets in the power play. They just made us pay. All credit goes to them as opposed to anything that we did or didn't do.”
Australia's experienced all-rounder also made it clear that her team would not dwell on the missed chances that proved costly, after Jemimah was dropped twice — once on 82 and again on 106 — in India's record chase. “For all of us, the intent is to always fight and to take on the challenge and be there until the game's done. So as long as you're giving all your effort, that's all you can do, and it is sport at the end of the day,” she said.
“Everyone's out there doing absolutely everything they can to perform. You never mean to make mistakes, but when you're playing in pressure situations and there's a lot on the line, things happen. For us, I don't think we ever talk about it. You just move on straight away. Everyone's doing absolutely all they can. Sometimes those things happen and no one means it, and we're just there to support each other.”
Perry's own performance was outstanding — she scored 77 and shared a 155-run partnership with Phoebe Litchfield (119) to set up Australia's total of 338. But she brushed aside her contribution in light of the team's result.
“I think my innings is pretty irrelevant,” she said. “At the end of the day, in big matches across two teams, there's so much talent, so much experience, and exceptional performances, so someone's going to have a day out at least. From our side, Phoebe was just phenomenal. I thought the way Ash (Ashleigh Gardner) finished the innings was brilliant as well. She's been unbelievable. But then on the flip side, that partnership between Harman and Jemi was special, and they made it count in their home conditions.”
Australia's semifinal defeat was their first in an ICC tournament since 2017 — coincidentally also against India. Perry, however, refused to hide behind excuses.
“You can't walk away with excuses from a loss in the semifinal because at the end of the day, you need to be able to perform on the day that matters the most,” she said. “But at the same time, we can be super proud of the style of cricket that we've played throughout this tournament, and even across the last 12 months. We're all really committed to that, the way we go about it.”
