Raageshwari Loomba talks about the impact of the Ahmedabad plane crash tragedy
On Monday, Raageshwari took to Instagram and shared a video reflecting on the aftermath of the Ahmedabad plane crash tragedy. She said, "Did you know, after the heartbreaking airplane crash, people started to call their families? I know of two couples who decided to let go of their divorces. Families suddenly allowed their egos to soften, their arguments to be resolved. What shifted? Psychologists say it always takes a calamity for us humans to realise where our blessings lie, and that’s why contrast is a must in life."
She added, "We have to go through the lows to appreciate the highs. We have to go through failures to truly appreciate the joys of success. A calamity like this also makes us pause and reflect on what truly matters—that life is fragile, and relationships are sacred. So, I hope you will now spend time with your family mindfully, truly making them feel precious and special. No wonder a wise person once said, people will forget what you say, what you wear or how you look—but people will never forget how you make them feel. So go ahead, make people feel precious. Make your family feel precious."
Sharing the video, Raageshwari reflected on how it often takes a calamity to remind people of what truly matters. She emphasised that life is fragile and connection is sacred, adding that no victory in an argument is worth the risk of leaving important words unsaid.
She urged people not to wait for sorrow as a reminder. Instead, she encouraged everyone to remember now: to reach out, to forgive, to speak gently, and to live kindly.
Fans lauded Raageshwari for ‘shifting the perspective’. One of the comments read, “So true. And really good to see you after such a long time.. teenage nostalgia.” Another wrote, “Indeed ..Value life.. everything else is just hyped and glorified . Family, connections, loved ones ..time with them is everything.” Another commented, “This is apt and true!”
