@Alka13619598:I have never seen any celebrity like Niti Taylor, who is so simple, real, humble, and down to earth. She never does anything like others to get name and fame. She always tells her fans about self-love and not to hate anyone because ‘hate’ is a very big word.

@AmeSoeour:The most down-to-earth and real celebrity. She made her way through her hard work, dedication, and talent, and remained humble despite being famous. She is very simple, and respects and treats everyone equally.

@arshiyaaa__:I’ve admired her since 2014, for her humbleness, down-to-earth nature and how she treats everyone equally. She always supports frie­nds and family, and has no attitude. (She is) just a sweet, simple girl, who spreads happiness.

@DUVSG16:She’s hardworking, humble and spreads positivity and smiles always, treating everyone around her with respect and love.

@GracyTiwari2:We love her for always making our day positive with just her smile. Her beauty is captivating, but so is her beautiful heart. She is a pure hearted soul just like her name. Niti cares for us a lot, more than herself.

@itnisibaat_:Niti Taylor’s dedication towards her work is commendable! She understands the value of hard work and never takes it for granted. She’s had her own highs and lows, but her commitment to work has always stayed.

@Lost_s0mewhere:She is a person who doesn’t follow other people’s rulebook. She is just truly herself and always preaches about self-love. She has shared her happiness as well as worries with her ‘fanmily’. She is a like a diamond, precious and rare.

@NazarLaaye:She is so relatable. I just love watching her on screen.

@nitisabode:I love her because she taught me to love myself. And she just doesn’t say it, she practises it. She chose her family life when she wanted and didn’t live by industry norms. She chose her health when she needed to, and has now returned to shine again.

@nitisquad:(I) Love Niti because she is literally a girl next door. We can relate to everything about her. She is being so real in this industry and that makes me admire her.

@SaanviKashyap4:Honestly, love does not need any reason. All it takes is respect, which we have for her and will always have. I don’t have just one reason, and my love for her isn’t conditional. It just is and stays. I’ll always wish the best for her. Her loss or gain, everything feels personal.

@SanghviMaitri:There’s something about her that makes me relate to her. It’s rare when you can actually relate with a celebrity, but that’s never difficult with Niti. Her personality is so warm and welcoming.

@Tay_admirer:She is such a positive girl. She not only says fans are her ‘fanmily’ but time and again had proved it. Her DM was open for people who needed help and advice in Covid times. She is rare and real.

@Zerin_Hasan:She is a beautiful soul inside out. We have witnessed her journey from a kid to a lady. She is a shining star to her ‘fanmily’. And she deserves all the happiness and success.

Comment: Can Starmer turn Windrush promises into policy?

Anniversaries can catalyse action. The government appointed the first Windrush Commissioner last week, shortly before Windrush Day, this year marking the 77th anniversary of the ship’s arrival in Britain.

The Windrush generation came to Britain believing what the law said – that they were British subjects, with equal rights in the mother country. But they were to discover a different reality – not just in the 1950s, but in this century too. It is five years since Wendy Williams proposed this external oversight in her review of the lessons of the Windrush scandal. The delay has damaged confidence in the compensation scheme. Williams’ proposal had been for a broader Migrants Commissioner role, since the change needed in Home Office culture went beyond the treatment of the Windrush generation itself.

Ed Sheeran and Arijit Singh’s ‘Sapphire’ collaboration misses the mark

The song everyone is talking about this month is Sapphire – Ed Sheeran’s collaboration with Arijit Singh. But instead of a true duet, Arijit takes more of a backing role to the British pop superstar, which is a shame, considering he is the most followed artist on Spotify. The Indian superstar deserved a stronger presence on the otherwise catchy track. On the positive side, Sapphire may inspire more international artists to incorporate Indian elements into their music. But going forward, any major Indian names involved in global collaborations should insist on equal billing, rather than letting western stars ride on their popularity.

If ayatollahs fall, who will run Teheran next?

Portraits of Iranian military generals and nuclear scientists, killed in Israel’s last Friday (13) attack, are seen above a road, as heavy smoke rises from an oil refinery in southern Teheran hit in an overnight Israeli strike last Sunday (15)

If ayatollahs fall, who will run Teheran next?

THERE is one question to which none of us has the answer: if the ayatollahs are toppled, who will take over in Teheran?

I am surprised that Iran’s supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Hosseini Khamenei, has lasted as long as he has. He is 86, and would achieve immortality as a “martyr” in the eyes of regime supporters if the Israeli prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, succeeded in assassinating him. This was apparently Netanyahu’s plan, though he was apparently dissuaded by US president Donald Trump from going ahead with the killing.

Comment: Talking about race isn’t racist – ignoring it helped grooming gangs thrive

WAS a national inquiry needed into so-called grooming gangs? Prime minister Sir Keir Starmer did not think so in January, but now accepts Dame Louise Casey’s recommendation to commission one.

The previous Conservative government – having held a seven-year national inquiry into child sexual abuse – started loudly championing a new national inquiry once it lost the power to call one. Casey explains why she changed her mind too after her four-month, rapid audit into actions taken and missed on group-based exploitation and abuse. A headline Casey theme is the ‘shying away’ from race.
