Bollywood star Suniel Shetty’s endeavour – F The Couch – and Nation Next – a digital newspaper for Gen Next – took the first ever Nation Next Talent Hunt auditions to LAD College (Lower LAD campus) recently. In what can be said as an overwhleming participation, around 150 LAD girls (from upper and lower LAD) showcased their talent in front hundreds of other students making the talent hunt a five-hour long affair! The talent hunt also continued the other day during the cultural fest of the LAD college.
Nation Next Talent Hunt would be conducted across all prominent colleges in Nagpur all the year round. Nation Next Talent Hunt is a platform to recognise and reward the hidden talents and the rising stars of Nagpur. The winners of Nation Next Talent Hunt would get a wild card entry to the final round of auditions at F The Couch. Furthermore, if the students clear the final round of auditions, they may get their first assignment in Bollywood or in any other mass media platform.
The auditions at LAD College got a perfect start when Dolly Singh accompanied by her friends did a fire juggling act. What followed was a series of stupendous performances one after the other by LAD girls. While some dance performances made the audience dance together, the singing performances got them sing along with the participants loudly. Sangeeta Shahu impressed everybody when she performed some magic tricks in front of everybody which included picking up a pigeon from an empty box! Not for a minute in five hours, was there a dull moment during the auditions as participants and audience kept the energy high.
The auditions were hosted by Nation Next Special Correspondent and emcee Amar Ashok Jajoo. Also present at the auditions were Vikrant Shandilya (Editor-In-Chief, Nation Next), Mrs Harsha Jharia (Vice Principal, Upper LAD college) and the team of Nation Next consisting of Radhika Dhawad, Juhi Sethi, Sangita Ghorui, Aditya Buty, Darshan Bagwe, Kartik Thakur, Himanshu Pal and Suyash Sethiya.

“I am very thankful to Ashok Leyland’s electric vehicle arm ‘Switch Mobility’ for donating an electric bus for our senior citizens. The bus can hold a capacity of 65 people and will benefit a lot to disabled and senior citizens,” Gadkari said.
“We already have a green Electra bus available to us for the past five to six years. Krishna Reddy has taken the responsibility of repairing and providing air-conditioning to the bus, moreover, he is providing us with one additional bus. A Tata Motor bus will be arriving this month as well, giving us a total of four buses to operate. This will solve the issue of waiting list due to the lack of buses for senior citizens in the city.” he added.

Nagpur: Married man accused of girlfriend’s rape commits suicide on Facebook live
A 38-year-old married man named Manish alias Raj Yadav, on Sunday, committed suicide during a Facebook live-stream after allegedly being accused of rape by his girlfriend and her family in Nagpur.
During the live stream, Manish, who was married and a father to three children, stated that his 19-year-old girlfriend, Kajal, along with her family members demanded a sum of five lakh rupees and threatened to press charges of rape if he failed to do so.
On September 6, the situation became grave as the woman’s family accused him of eloping after Kajal went missing from her residence.
The deceased refused the claims of having any sexual relationship with the woman and identified her, her family, and a photo studio operator responsible for his condition. He, then, jumped into the river.
After the live video surfaced online, Kalamna Police launched a search operation and recovered the deceased’s body from the river. Four people have been detained in the case for questioning. Further investigation is underway.
