Internet sensation Ranu Mondal's refusal to pose for a selfie with a fan causes social media outrage
Social media can be an unpredictable place for sure. It can create overnight sensations and sometimes it can pull someone down in an instant. The most recent example of the power of the internet was Ranu Mondal. The 59-year-old singer was discovered when she was singing at the railway station in Ranaghat, West Bengal and her video went viral on social media.
In the clip, Ranu can be seen at a supermarket where a female fan approached her for a selfie and held her hand. The singer got upset with this and was seen lashing out her and was heard saying 'yeh kya hota hai, what does this mean?'
Take a look at the video featuring Ranu Mondal:
Many users commented on the post and called out the singer for her approach. One comment reads, "Some people can't digest success. This female is one of them. The person who did so much to bring her to public eye.....if she could bypass his kindness.....of what consequence are others to her...."
Another one commented, "Ohh .. itna ghamand.. hum logo ne hi tume famouse Kiya madam. Or mint lagege hum hi niche patak denge."
A lot of people also tweeted about this. One such tweet reads, "Really sad we all twitterati supp her when her station vala video came see her behaviour after becoming celebrity Such insult of any fan is pathetic"

This woman once earned her meal but touching someone and begging for help. Now that she has became a star of some sort is objecting to touching by a fan of hers. That the worst type of human being. #RanuMondal https://t.co/JWLs7jcPIK

Two injuries, one DNF, a DQ as India end messy World Relays campaign
Gaborone (Botswana) (PTI): Amoj Jacob and Ragul Kumar got injured during the men's 4x400m and 4x100 races respectively as India ended their World Athletics Relays campaign in disappointment on the second day of competitions here on Sunday.
The Indian camp had high hopes of making the 2027 World Championships in the men's 4x400m relay but the team did not finish (DNF) the race as Jacob suffered cramps and pulled out of the race after taking the baton from the first leg runner Dharamveer Choudhary. Rajesh Ramesh and Vishal TK were to run in the third and fourth legs.
Those teams which could not qualify for the 2027 Beijing World Championships by reaching the final round of each of the six relay events on Saturday were given another chance in the second qualification round on Sunday.
The top two teams in each of the two heats (in all six relay events) booked the Beijing ticket on Sunday.
India will now have to try and qualify for the World Championships through the Top Lists of the World Athletics, which is a long and tedious process.
In the men's 4x100m race, third leg runner Ragul Kumar fell down the track after failing to hand over the baton inside the exchange zone to fourth leg runner Gurindervir Singh, which clearly showed the lack of coordination among the runners.
Harsh Santosh Raut and Animesh Kujur ran the first two legs.
The Indian quartet was disqualified and Kumar was seen being taken away from the Field of Play with the help of the volunteers.
It was a comedy of errors in the case of the women's 4x100m race, which saw the baton being dropped during an exchange between first leg runner Tamanna and second runner Nithya Gandhe, though the Indians finished the race in 53.09 seconds.
Gandhe started running quite a distance, but after realising that the baton was not in her hand, she turned and ran back to pick it up.
The only silver-lining for the Indian contingent was the national record time in the mixed 4x100m relay race, though the quartet of Ragul Kumar, Nithya Gandhe, Animesh Kujur and Sneha SS finished sixth in heat number two with a time of 41.35 seconds, bettering the previous national mark of 42.30 seconds set in March in Chandigarh.
The mixed 4x400m relay quartet of Theerthesh P Shetty, Kumari Saloni, Nihal William and Rashdeep Kaur ended at fifth in heat number one with a time of 3 minutes and 19.40 seconds.
On Saturday, all the five Indian relay teams had failed to make it to the respective final rounds and thus missed out on the 2027 World Championships berths.
