yeh news sun ke maine socha, kitne log hain jo dekhte hain and yet here i am — not able to even step out for dinner with friends because of kuch nahi hai bhai, matlab zindagi mein kya ho raha hai. sab ghar le rahe hain, sab naye car le rahe hain, and main abhi bhi wahi hun jo har din khaali khaali haath baithta hai. dekhta hoon unki pictures social media pe, jaise wo sab kuch achieve kar rahe hain...
