iPad With An OLED Display? Here’s What You Need To Know

Jan 12, 2022

According to a report, both Apple and Samsung held discussions about potentially working together on a 10.86-inch OLED iPad with the latter providing the displays. However, talks broke down last year as it became apparent Apple’s orders wouldn’t be large enough to make the numbers work. However, talks are underway for the OLED screen panel once again given Samsung could have the machinery needed for the partnership in place by next year.

According to the report, it appears Samsung is looking to expand its Gen 8.5 IT OLED panels to provide the specifications Apple needs at a price that would work for both parties. The machinery needed to make that happen could be ordered later this year and delivered in 2023 — pushing any potential product launch into 2024.

“The South Korean display panel maker’s development of a vertical deposition machine, in collaboration with Japan’s Ulvac, for use in Gen 8.5 IT OLED panel that started last year was ongoing as of January 2022,” says the source.

“The equipment, along with fine metal masks (FMM) used to deposit organic materials precisely on the substrate, is a key technology needed to commercialize Gen 8.5 IT OLED panels.”

OLED Displays

OLED screens – as seen in some of the best TVs around – offer superb contrast ratios and ‘true’ black levels. So far, Apple has only used OLED screens in its phones, such as the iPhone 13 Pro Max, and Apple Watch devices, due to the higher costs associated with the technology.

Last year, it launched its first iPad with a Mini LED display (the iPad Pro 12.9). The 11-inch iPad Pro is rumoured to follow suit this year with a Mini LED screen of its own.

Manufacturers

While Samsung requires Apple to order a substantial number of OLED panels to make it worth it for the South Korean manufacturer, Apple could also work with another display provider to meet its needs.

Apple is reportedly working with BOE on larger-sized OLED panels for use in iPads and Macs. Currently, Apple uses OLED screens only for the iPhone and Apple Watch.

Sajal Aly and her relationship with Ahad Raza Mir has been the talk of the town ever since the wedding of Saboor started. The starlet has attended the wedding without her husband’s presence and netizens couldn’t stop questioning the couple.

Meanwhile, a recent post of Ahad has garnered a lot of hate from the netizens. The netizens bombarded his latest post on social media with their questions and queries. The netizens didn’t react well when they saw him attending a wedding in Dubai. Meanwhile, his recent post has only added fuel to the fire and netizens are now demanding answers.

Amidst all the backlash, Sajal, later, uploaded a picture on social media with her husband. However, she deleted it immediately. The netizens couldn’t help but question her. However, some also mentioned how this feels like a sigh of relief knowing the couple is still together.

In another news, the actress is now being criticised for holding a tasbeeh in her hand at the wedding event.

Sajal Aly At Saboor’s Wedding

Sajal Aly was spotted at her sister’s wedding while offering the duties of the mother and bridesmaids. While Sajal opted for a heavily embellished shalwar kameez, one accessory which stood out among the look was her digital tasbeeh. Meanwhile, as soon as the netizens spotted it, they couldn’t help but criticise the actress.

Take a look at the picture below.

Netizens React

The actress’s decision of carrying a tasbeeh is met with backlash and criticism. And the cherry on top was her attire given that she was not covering her head. Given that the actress already has a lot on her plate to take care of, adding another thing to the actress’s list of criticism seems quite insensitive.

However, now that the wedding is over, we hope that the never-ending criticism and comments will stop. While we wait for another whirlwind in the media industry and we shall start again.

Till then let us know what are your thoughts about the actresses’ gestures in the comments below.

Vintage jeeps to look out for in Pakistan — Image Source: wallpaperflare.com

There are certain vehicles that are considered quite robust. Jeeps are one of them. There is a whole category of vehicles that are made to explore the wild and run through rocky areas. Yes, these vehicles are the epitome of off-road excellence. You cannot hope to achieve such journeys without the best of vehicles. SUVs are even becoming common now. However, today we are taking a look at vintage jeeps. These are the ones that are, at least, more than two decades or three decades old.

Jeeps are known to have a long life because of how they are made. Even if we look at the engines, diesel engines are more efficient than petrol. Diesel is a much purer fuel than petrol and a lot of components that run petrol engines are not needed on diesel. You will not find carburettors or spark plugs in a diesel engine. So, let us take a look at these jeeps.

1. Willys M38

Willys is one of the most famous names in this part of the industry. These jeeps started to appear around the same time as World War II. In fact, a lot of them were used in it. In Willys itself, there are many categories. The M38 is said to be one of the most popular ones. It was released in the late fifties and went well past the late sixties.

Depending on the model year, the M38 has different engine capacities, from 2.0 Litre to 3.6 Litre. If you are a fan of vintage jeeps, you might wanna check this one out.

2. Daihatsu Rocky

This jeep is the successor of its Toyota equivalent, the Toyota Blizzard. When the blizzard ended production in 1984, this vehicle came out with its heavy specs and a robust body. Rocky is known for its signature shape as well as its high engine capacity. It is definitely a vehicle that can withstand the forces of nature.

If you wish to look them up, you can always browse the ones on sale. You don’t even have to buy one, just take a glance at one. The model varies with years but we recommend the one that came out in the late eighties and throughout the nineties.

3. Willys CJ Series

After the war ended, the jeeps took to the civilian world. They became a common buy for many people living in the countryside. It was famous for being used for multiple purposes. Thus, Willys decided to release the public version of the vehicle. The CJ is the abbreviation of ‘Civilian Jeep’. From CJ2 to CJ7, this brand absolutely dominated the market. The writer of this article used to be the owner of a CJ5 from 1965.

Not only are these vehicles robust, but they are also a sight to see. Check out their models online if you wish to have a more in-depth knowledge of them.

4. Jeep Cherokee

This is one of the most renowned vehicles of the previous decades. It is the one that set the standard for modern-day SUV design. When the second generation came out, people began to buy it a lot. Brands began to notice that this vehicle was taking over the market. People loved the design and it was replacing all the cars. If you look up the second generation, you can see how modern SUVs are inspired.

There are newer generations of this vehicle too but our focus today was the older ones. Do check them out if you wish to learn more.

5. Wrangler

These monsters have also been around for quite a while now. It is impressive to see how far they have come. Wrangler jeeps have powerful engines with capable functions. You can climb the jeep up rocks and through ravines without worry. Social media is full of such videos where they are just driving through rocks or mud.

Wrangler jeeps have been in production since the early eighties. Now, while they have evolved, the older versions are a mighty force of automation. Don’t forget to look for them in Pakistan too.

Pakistan Railways Launches Pakistan’s First-Ever ‘Reefer Freight Train’

Jan 11, 2022

Karachi, January 10, 2022: As a major breakthrough in national logistics & cargo infrastructure, Pakistan Railways successfully launches the country’s first-ever Reefer Freight Train aiming to provide more economical and environment-friendly freight solutions.

According to details, Marine Group of Companies in collaboration with Pakistan Railways achieved the milestone by operating Pakistan’s first-ever containerized refrigerated train in Dec 2021 which departed from the dry port of Marine International Container Terminal (MICT) Prem Nagar, Lahore, and arrived at Wazir Mansion Karachi.

This intermodal cold chain solution is enabled by ‘Pakistan Railways Freight Transportation Company’ (PRFTC) who facilitates the rail infrastructure operated by ‘Pakistan Intermodal Limited’ (PIL) and CMA CGM Pakistan providing commercial support for this new cold chain corridor.

For the past 5 years, Pakistan Intermodal Ltd is playing a pivotal role in operating containerized freight trains in Pakistan and realizing the potential of Reefer containers, operating Pakistan’s first-ever reefer block train carrying 24 Units – 40 feet reefers of CMA CGM Pakistan from MICT – Dry port at Prem Nagar – Lahore to Wazir Mansion Karachi and transported the Reefer box through PakGo trucking short-haul services to Karachi Port completing the journey successfully.

Here’s the launch ceremony

The new operational phase begins with one train a week with plans for this service to operate twelve trains in a month. Freight trains can minimize the delivery time and reduce emissions to the atmosphere of greenhouse gasses. On average, railroads are three to four times more fuel-efficient than trucks. That means moving freight by rail instead of trucks lowers greenhouse gas emissions by up to 75%, on average.

As more and more road-based reefer cargo finds its way to more economically and environmentally viable options. Pakistan Intermodal Limited (PIL) reefer block train system can generate billions of rupees annually in revenue for Pakistan Railways if the containerized freight trains are operated on schedule.

iPhone SE 3 To Launch In March 2022 – Here’s Everything You Need To Know

New iPhone To Launch In March 2022 - Here's Everything You Need To Know — Image Source: Beebom

It’s been a few months since the iPhone 13 series was launched. Meanwhile, the news of the latest iPhone edition is already doing rounds on social media.

We’ve been waiting a long time for the iPhone SE 3. With iPhone SE (2020) having launched back in April 2020. But it looks like the next model might be about to land, as a reputable source claims it will probably be announced this March or April.

Bloomberg’s tech journalist, Mark Gurman, has shared the info in his latest newsletter.

“Apple gets ready for its first virtual event of 2022. Apple’s first virtual event of 2022 is coming up in a few short months and is likely to take place in either March or April.”

Gurman also touches on Apple’s second event of 2022, which is likely to be WWDC in June, and this too will apparently be virtual. He says we’ll likely see iOS 16, watchOS 9, macOS 13, and tvOS 16 there, but that was all expected anyway.

Apple #iPhoneSE3 is likely to get launched in March 2022. The Cupertino-based iPhone maker is likely to launch the third generation of iPhone SE 3 during March this year. https://t.co/ExSlAKSywp

— Mint (@livemint) January 11, 2022

Mobile Specifications

The third-generation SE is rumoured to have a drastically faster processor compared to its predecessor. It will be allegedly rocking the 5nm A14 Bionic also found inside the iPhone 12 series. Probably serving as good news to some users out there, the more affordable SE will also keep the home button and with it Touch ID as well.

However, the 4.7-inch display also remains a thing with this new iteration. Thankfully, though, the iPhone SE 3 might be getting 5G compatibility. It is coupled with a fast processor and would completely bring it to the new age of phones.

As it will likely be the newest small iPhone model that Apple will offer. This could prove a crucial gap filler in the lineup. Even though the small form factor is dying out, there are still users out there that are die-hard fans of smaller phones. This includes the more compact iPhones.

Apple iPhone SE 3

While a lot of people are probably more excited about the iPhone 14 range in September, the iPhone SE 3 could be a big seller for Apple. It could show that there’s still a market for small phones – if they’re priced right.

Most evidence, so far, suggests that the iPhone 13 mini hasn’t been a huge seller for Apple. Meanwhile, the iPhone SE 3 could offer an even smaller screen at a much lower price, and pair that with 5G (for the first time in a mid-range iPhone), which might make for an intoxicating combination.

That remains to be seen, and the increasingly dated design that we’re expecting might hold it back. However, there’s a good chance that a palatable price is all people need to embrace smaller phones again – and the SE 3 is likely to offer that.

HEC Warns Students Against Fake And Illegal Institutions In Pakistan

In the latest news, HEC has launched a bomb on students as it came out with a comprehensive list of “fake institutions” operating in Pakistan. The tweet and list, has since then invited the ire of many people. Why is this happening now? Read all about it here.

What Happened?

The Higher Education Commission (HEC) recently issued a list of “fake, illegal, and unrecognized” educational institutions. These institutions operate across the country and the HEC has instructed students to refrain from taking admission in them.

HEC issued a statement on Twitter saying that it only recognizes degrees of chartered universities. In addition to that, it will accept degrees from higher education institutions (HEIs) in public and private sectors and their officially approved campuses.

Where Can We Find The List?

The purpose of spreading this list was so that students confirm the affiliation of a Higher education institute or campus before taking admissions there. Moreover, the HEC also warned students against enrolling in any of the universities and campuses given here:

🛑 STUDENT ALERT 🛑

𝐅𝐚𝐤𝐞, 𝐈𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐠𝐚𝐥, 𝐔𝐧𝐥𝐚𝐰𝐟𝐮𝐥 & 𝐔𝐧𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐠𝐧𝐢𝐳𝐞𝐝 𝐈𝐧𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐭𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝐏𝐚𝐤𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧

List posted here and also available @ https://t.co/p38t45bIMm pic.twitter.com/PZyol1B6ah

— HEC Pakistan (@hecpkofficial) January 10, 2022

The HEC also added that there may be universities who are not in this LIST and are in the list but also are not in the approved list may be fake. The commission stated that the list has also been uploaded to the HEC website for the convenience of students.

PLEASE NOTE that any other institution which is not included here 👆or in the list of recognized institutions on HEC website (https://t.co/dYRPx5zwbe) may also be treated as fake, illegal, unlawful and unrecognized institution.

— HEC Pakistan (@hecpkofficial) January 10, 2022

According to HEC, it is the responsibility of parents and students to check an institution’s status before going there. Otherwise, the HEC is not to be held responsible for the money and years being wasted.

People Are Not Taking This

People are now angry. They are wondering who is responsible for those students who have spent years of their life and their parents’ money and now are told their degree is fake? Moreover, people are asking, why is HEC just making people “aware”? Why is the commission not shutting down these institutions and who is allowing them to exist? Provided HEC’s recent performance with the single national curriculum and closure of schools repeated, people are not happy. Here’s what they’re saying:

Is HEC done by sending this alert? Who is responsible to take action against these fake institutions? We are looking for the tweet like “more than 100 fake institutions were shut down in Pakistan”

— Muhammad Tahir Ali (@MTahirAli84) January 10, 2022

Logo ko Bata Rahe pata he sab to phr karwai kyu nai karte😲?

— MISHAL RAJPOOT.LEo (@MishalRajpoot1) January 10, 2022

HEC authorities are responsible for these fake and unregistered institutions. No action for banning and sealing these institutions of education mafia. They are earning whereas students and parents are suffering.

Sakina Samo is a well-known Pakistani actress who, by now, needs no introduction. The actress has proven her talent and has also showcased it in several dramas and series now, all of whom have left their mark on the audience. However, Samo is not in the news for something amazing. The actress has invited a lot of criticism after her latest take on Humayun Saeed and The Crown.

Humayun Saeed As Dr. Hasnat

We recently brought to you the amazing news that Humayun Saeed has been cast as Dr. Hasnat in The Crown. Humayun Saeed becomes the first Pakistani cast in a Netflix original. This is a huge win for us.

Sakina Samo’s Thoughts

Sakina Samo has deleted her tweets. However, the internet is a dark and unforgiving place. Her rant was against Humayun Saeed’s casting for The Crown. She kept talking about how he may look like him right now, but the 90s Hasnat was not anywhere near Saeed.

Sakina Samo was all in favour of Fawad Khan playing the role of Dr. Hasnat. She believed he would have been “a class act”. Over this, Samo has decided to boycott The Crown.

How Does Casting Work?

According to Sakina Samo, in casting for the series, 4-5 Pakistani actors must have been auditioned. When users pointed out that Jemima Khan may have been consulted also, she was not too impressed. She was not convinced that Humayun Saeed may be a carefully deliberated choice.

What Are People Saying?

People are using this to express their own opinions on Sakina Samo. It clearly, according to them, is a case of someone being unable to be happy for another’s achievement.

Really liked @SakinaSamo as an actor back in the day. Few days back I cracked a joke under her tweet, she called me Badtamiz and blocked me. I felt bad back then but not anymore.

He may not look like Hasanat but Sakina aunty you look & act like naraz Phuppo of Pakistani dramas. https://t.co/VZrlMUimvv

Since its relaunch in 2017, KIA has become one of the leading choices of Pakistanis when it comes to SUVs. Thanks to its innovative and sleek designs, excellent mileage, and efficient performance, KIA has sold over 50,000 cars in three years, a milestone that is considered a major achievement in the industry.

The Picanto being an ideal 1000cc hatchback for a single user or a small family, which can be easily maneuvered in tight spots without compromising any comfort inside. The Sportage has been a game changer for the local automotive industry making people shift to the SUV over sedans. The Sorento was launched last year where car enthusiasts were eager to try it, mainly because of its powerful V6 engine which no other SUV is offering currently in Pakistan. With Carnival’s entry in Pakistan, KIA is the only automotive maker to locally provide an exotic multi-purpose vehicle. KIA has also recently launched the Stonic in Pakistan, with a 1.4l MPI engine which has gained limelight physically and on social media platforms. The C-SUV comes with key features including LED powered headlights, sunroof, cruise control, infotainment system and push start.

KIA has dominated the SUV category by firstly launching the Sportage followed by the Sorento and Stonic. The company achieved all of this in a short span of time–approximately four years. Between August 2019 and August 2021, the company sold more than 25,000 units of the Sportage. The manner in which KIA has dominated the local automotive market by bringing in a plethora of models is highly commendable. All the vehicles cater perfectly to a user’s commuting needs, be it intercity or intracity with no compromise on comfort. With such remarkable moves ever since its entry in Pakistan, let’s see what KIA has to offer us in the year 2022.

Capitalizing On Tragedy: What The Murree Incident Tells Us About Ourselves

The latest tragedy to have occurred in Murree has shocked everybody. While the nation grieves for lives lost on a vacation, more upsetting news is also spreading. The latest information shows us how deeply ingrained the principle of capitalization has become in us while it also reflects the poor state that leads people to this.

The Context

Approximately 21 people have died in Murree because they were stranded on the blocked streets. Their cars became completely covered in snow and while it is still unclear what caused their deaths, CO or snow; they all could not make it.

The Latest News

In the latest, it has come to our attention that the prices for everything started skyrocketing as a state of panic spread in Murree. People now wanted to return home but found themselves tied due to snowfall and road blockages. In all of this, hotels raised their per night fee uptil Rs.50,000. That is not all! Locals who were previously clearing the car of snow started charging 10,000 to 20,000 for doing so. Moreover, the prices of food and beverage also increased many folds while people had no option but to purchase.

Murree Prices During The Incident:

Boiled Egg
Rs 200 to 300

Hot Tea
Rs 250 to 300

Mattress In The Hotel Hallways
Rs 12,000 to 18,000

Hotel Room
Rs 35,000 to 50,000

Chain Rent For Tyres
Rs 800 to 1500

Blankets
Rs 3000 to 5000

اور اُنھیں پیسوں سے حج پر بھی جائینگے

Self-reflection Teaches Us What?

This is not uncommon. We always hear how the prices are increased in tourist spots when the tourist season comes and perhaps that would be justified. People need to make money in the busiest season. However, right now, a calamity has occurred in Murree. 21 lives have been lost. Many are staying there not out of their will but safety.

In this situation, prices should be reduced to facilitate everyone. What happens when people can not afford 50k hotels per night? They are forced to return home and bear the dangerous roads. In a state of panic, many might even resort to doing such expenditures thinking that it will keep them safe.

Is It Their Fault Entirely?

When covid-19 was rising, people also started hoarding medicines and selling them in black for a few bucks. Is it heartless? Totally. However, have they been fed this system of heartlessness all their life? Yes, which is why they become the same. Those who start charging this high not only once paid unfairly high prices for something themself but also are made to need all the money they can get.

As the economy is in shambles and inflation tightens the noose around necks, people become greedy. This is a prime example of greed, nothing else.

5 Tips To Stay Safe In Your Car While Stuck In A Snowstorm

5 Tips To Stay Safe In You Car While Stuck In A Snowstorm — Image source: thesuburbanneewspaper.com

Winter driving safety is usually about keeping your car on the road in slippery conditions, but sometimes the weather is so severe that drivers get trapped on the road in a snowstorm alone or traffic for hours, sometimes overnight.

It’s a rare but dangerous situation that could lead to frostbite, hypothermia, and even death for those who aren’t ready to wait to be rescued or for the road to be cleared.

If a snowstorm is expected, it is best to stay put. For those who venture out anyway, here are some important safety tips should disaster strike.

1. Contact Friends And Family

The first and foremost thing you should do is to make your family aware of the situation. Try to see if you have any cellphone service. If you do, contact your family and friends immediately and inform them of your location and situation.

2. Stay In The Car

If you are caught in snow and shelter or help isn’t visible within 100 yards, the best thing to do is stay in your vehicle to avoid exposure. Moving too much would only drain your energy and the cold would further add to it.

3. Stop The Engine

In cold temperatures, run the vehicle no more than 10 minutes every hour to heat the cabin to preserve fuel, especially if the tank isn’t full. Also, make sure that the exhaust pipe is clear and the windows cracked open to avoid letting exhaust fumes in.

4. Keep Burglars Away

Try not to sleep if you’re alone, but if you’re stranded for an extended period and there are several passengers in the vehicle, take turns sleeping and keep an eye on each other. This way you would make sure that you are aware of the surroundings and nothing can catch you off guard.

5. Take Care Of Yourself

Feeling isolated and stranded is normal. However, try not to stress about the situation and think about others who are stranded with you. Try to eat whatever food is available and drink water often to preserve your energy.

It appears 2022 is off to a stellar start as the incredible piece of news pertaining to Humayun Saeed reaches the eyes and ears of all. The veteran actor is all set to make his mark on the international and might we say, the British monarchist audience and we are stoked. Here’s what you need to know about immediately!

What Happened?

It has been announced on all social media platforms that Humayun Saeed is off to an international role. The actor who has worked in the Pakistani entertainment industry for over 26 years has landed the project of a lifetime.

Humayun Saeed has been cast in none other than the — drumroll please — Netflix original, The Crown. The series is based on the life of the reigning Queen Elizabeth, the longest-reigning English monarch to have ever existed. The news has since then spread like wildfire.

Breaking and HUGE: Humayun Saeed becomes first Pakistani actor to be cast in a Netflix original. Will be seen as Dr Hasnat in The Crown. Congratulations to him and to us!!! Whoaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!! #TheCrown @TheCrownNetflix @iamhumayunsaeed @netflix pic.twitter.com/lUZZvDsyjC

— Hassan Choudary (@hassanchoudary) January 9, 2022

Humayun Saeed as Dr. Hasnat

The Crown has become even more popular as of late because it also delves into the life and controversies of Princess Diana. Thus, Dr. Hasnat, the doctor with whom she was suspected to be having an affair, was central to her life. This incredibly important and Pakistani role is going to be played by Humayun Saeed and it marks a change in our industry.

To all those asking, Dr Hasnat Khan, had an affair with Diana, but due to family reasons Hasnat couldn’t marry her, they separated. Hasnat was a Pakistani and is still alive living in UK. Humayun will play Dr Hasnat’s role in @TheCrownNetflix . I love the series Soo much 😍❤️❤️

— Sameed (@_donewithyou) January 9, 2022

We have seen Indian actors being chosen to play Pakistani roles *cough Squid Game*. Now, we have reached the point where we are going to see our very own on the international and renowned screen.

What Are People Saying?

Before we convey to you what people think, celebrities like Mahira Khan have also extended their appraisal of this news. Her tweets are evidence of her excitement and well-wishes to her colleague. Have a look at what she said:

Finaaaallly it’s out!!!! So proud! So excited!!! MashAllah mashAllah 🥳✨💫 🧿🤲🏼♥️ What a show! What a star 🙂 @iamhumayunsaeed @TheCrownNetflix

— Mahira Khan (@TheMahiraKhan) January 9, 2022

Will justice be done to this role? Netizens are not too sure. Others are simply over the moon over having representation in a show this popular. Have a look at what all they have had to say:

Thank god it’s not Feroze

— Gettflost (@whatyouthought4) January 9, 2022

Yet Dr Hasnat was so much more Dashing than Humayun Saeed. Will he do justice to the role ? 🤔 Surely he’s had so much air time in Pakistani dramas that nothing appeals in terms of what characters he’s trying to portray.

In Gujrat, India, a local vendor sells Oreo Pakoras, and no, we are not kidding.

The video went viral on social media after the user shared the video of him trying out the bizarre combination of the sweet and savoury. Nonetheless, People are mad.

The Pakora Recipe

The video begins with Amar Sihori explaining that this stall (selling Oreo Pakora) has been around for 15 years, and people, especially children, like to eat these pakoras. He, then, focuses on the food stall owner, who further showed how the pakoras are made.

Oreo ke pakode😱. from Ahmedabad, Gujarat. 😭😭 pic.twitter.com/Sb6fjYr7m0

— raman (@Dhuandhaar) November 6, 2021

The recipe is simple, just like any other pakora recipe. To make Oreo Pakora, the vendor first made the gram flour batter, then dipped the biscuit in the batter and deep-fried it. He then served it hot with some boiled chillies with a side of chutney. Weird enough to make you puke, right?

Royal Reactions

The reactions were nothing less than hilarious on the social media posts. People had all kinds of things to say; from people trying to justify the snack to people telling the reason for leaving Gujrat.

However, we are sharing some of the reactions which caught our eyes so that you can have a good laugh too.

Can this be more accurate?????

On behalf of all the Gujaratis, I apologise. 😢😢🙏🙏

Someone even took on the responsibility to apologize on behalf of the vendor. We feel you!

Look I would've still been fine only with the pakodas but I lost it when they added chillis and sauce on the side 😭😭

— Radha ⚢ (@limoniumemos) November 6, 2021

Why people try and like such recipes will always be a mystery to us. The debate is never-ending since one out of 20 people would always be willing to try such things. Regardless, we can always look forward to such recipes and maybe once in a while, when the heavens bless us with extra courage, we might be willing to try something like this once in our lifetime.
