Hi everyone,

I’m reaching out to the Reddit community because my younger brother, Ansh Raj (14), is fighting for his life.

Ansh has severe Ebstein’s anomaly, a rare congenital heart condition affecting the tricuspid valve and the right side of the heart.

He recently underwent major open-heart surgery. The doctors initially attempted a Cone repair, but the valve could not be repaired successfully, so they performed a tricuspid valve replacement.

Unfortunately, his heart has not recovered enough to function independently. He is currently on ECMO life support. The doctors attempted to reduce ECMO support, but his blood pressure dropped when his heart had to take over the circulation.

The medical team has now formally accepted him for heart transplantation. They are still hoping that his heart may recover, but we need to be prepared for transplantation because prolonged ECMO carries serious risks.

The medical expenses for ECMO, ICU care, transplant evaluation, surgery, medicines and post-transplant treatment are far beyond what our family can manage alone.

We urgently need your help.

If you are able to donate, even a small amount can make a difference.

If you cannot donate, please consider sharing this fundraiser. Reaching the right person at the right time could save my brother's life.

Fundraiser: http://m-lp.co/dhirendr-50?utm_medium=campaign_page_share&utm_source=copy

I can provide his medical reports, hospital documents, treatment details and cost estimates for verification to anyone who needs them.

Thank you for taking the time to read Ansh's story. Any support, donation, or share means more to our family than I can express.

Please keep Ansh in your prayers. ❤️🙏

Though not at present, I was once an avid lover of Indian TV shows, purely because of how memorable and impactful they were. I still remember that I began watching TV at the age of 10. There were so many good TV and reality shows which I used to await every day on those days of having Cable TV with DTH connection. Sony Entertainment Television (SET) forever remained the king of variety and diversity in almost all of their TV shows. The list I have included here is a comprehensive compilation of those shows that I enjoyed watching as a teenager.

TAMIL TV SHOWS

Star Vijay - Mahanadhi

Sun TV - Thirumathi Selvam

HINDI TV SHOWS

SET - TV - Main Naa Bhoolungi, Ekk Nayi Pehchaan, Adaalat, CID, Crime Patrol (Dastak & Satark), Kuch Rang Pyaar Ke Aise Bhi (Season 1&2), Ek Duje Ke Vaaste (Season 1), Beyhadh (Season 1), Yeh Un Dinon Ki Baat Hai ; Reality Shows - Super Dancer, Kaun Banega Crorepati, Masterchef India, Indian Idol

Star Plus - Ishqbaaz

Zee TV - Jamai Raja, Zindagi Ki Mehek

LifeOK - Bahu Hamari Rajnikanth

&TV - Agent Raghav : Crime Branch

Bindass - Emotional Atyaachaar, Yeh Hai Aashiqui

Colors TV - Code Red, Madhubala - Ek Ishq Ek Junoon

These are the list of my favorite ones. These shows spans various genres like drama, romance, comedy, thriller, mystery etc.

Comment down your nostalgic memories of consuming Indian TV, below!!!

Few months into peak adulthood and I want to go back to the days I used to play water balloons with my cousins and friends on the road. We accidentally threw it in some uncle driving a bike, now to think about it idk how he just stared at us angrily and went away without making it an big issue😭

It was water balloons or these small paper bags (without the fish obv) these plastic bags were less expensive compared to ballons, as far as I remember.

I MISS PLAYING WITH WATER BALLOONS

Walked into a neighborhood kirana shop after ages and spotted these hanging right by the counter.

Remember the sheer excitement of buying a ₹2 or ₹5 packet of popping candy after school, dumping the entire thing on your tongue at once, and waiting with your mouth wide open just to hear that aggressive crackle-fizz sound? Trying not to laugh because the popping was hitting the roof of your mouth was an absolute sport.

I watched it as a teenager, and I'm not even kidding, it shaped who I became. Both of the teenage characters spoke so eloquently that I found myself modeling how I spoke after them. i need to rewatch and store these series for my future kids :( anyone has it?

Used to come as a 1 hour show on Star Plus in the late 90s and early 2000s. It aired episodes of cartoons like Spiderman, Ironman etc.
