When Sunidhi Chauhan Took Over Goa: A Night of Nostalgia, Energy, and Collective Joy


Written by Intern Swara Bodke || Team Allycaral

On January 25, 2026, at the 1919 Sportz Cricket Stadium in Verna, Goa, the state experienced more than just a live concert—it witnessed a shared emotional journey powered by music. Sunidhi Chauhan’s performance transformed the venue into a space where memories, energy and collective happiness flowed freely, cutting across age groups and generations.

As soon as Sunidhi Chauhan took the stage, the atmosphere shifted. Her powerful vocals ignited the crowd, and the response was instant and overwhelming. From Gen Z audiences capturing every beat on their phones to millennials singing along with nostalgia-filled smiles, the concert felt like a living archive of shared musical moments. Social media quickly reflected the mood of the night, filled with reels, stories, shaky videos, hoarse voices and wide smiles, all echoing the same sentiment—the vibe was unmatched.

The performance seamlessly moved between emotions. Soulful tracks created moments of stillness, reflection and deep connection, while iconic high-energy numbers sent waves of excitement through the crowd. People danced without hesitation, sang without worrying about perfection and allowed themselves to be fully present in the moment. For a few hours, differences in age or background dissolved, replaced by a shared rhythm and collective joy.

What made the night especially memorable was the personal connection Sunidhi Chauhan established with the audience. Her stage presence was confident, magnetic and deeply engaging, making it feel less like a performance and more like a celebration shared between artist and audience. The energy flowed effortlessly from the stage to the crowd and back again, creating an atmosphere of unity and warmth.

For younger fans, the concert was a chance to experience live the music they had grown up hearing through playlists and reels. For others, it was a reminder of school days, road trips, house parties and simpler times. Together, the experience reinforced the idea that good music does not fade with time—it grows alongside the people who listen to it.

That night in Goa became a pause from routine, stress and deadlines. It was about dancing with strangers who felt like friends, about feeling alive through music, and about carrying home memories that would resurface every time a Sunidhi Chauhan song played again. The concert was not just an event; it was a moment—one that will live on in tired legs, full hearts and unforgettable melodies.

Second Sunday of Advent: The Candle of Peace


By Nikita Volvoikar

As the Advent season unfolds, today marks the Second Sunday of Advent, celebrated by lighting the Peace Candle, also known as the Prophet’s Candle. This candle symbolizes the divine peace that Jesus Christ brings — a peace that calms our hearts, heals our wounds, and restores what the world often tries to take away.

In a time when stress, conflict, hatred, division, and uncertainty seem to be on the rise, the Peace Candle calls us back to the essence of Christ’s message. He is the Prince of Peace, the one who brings stillness to troubled hearts and hope to weary souls.

Today, we are reminded to pray for peace:

  • In our hearts, where fear and anxiety often reside
  • In our families, where misunderstandings can arise
  • In our communities, where unity is needed
  • Across the world, where wars and unrest continue

As we light this candle, may it inspire us not only to seek peace but to be bearers of peace — through kindness, forgiveness, compassion, and love. Advent is a journey of preparation, and peace is one of its most profound gifts.

Maundy Thursday: A Day of Service and Reflection


Maundy Thursday, also known as Holy Thursday, is a significant day in the Christian calendar that commemorates the Last Supper of Jesus Christ with his disciples before he was betrayed. It is observed on the Thursday before Easter Sunday.


The term “Maundy” comes from the Latin word “mandatum,” meaning “commandment.” This refers to Jesus’ commandment to his disciples to love one another as he has loved them, as recorded in John 13:34.


On Maundy Thursday, Christians around the world observe various traditions and practices, including:

  • Foot Washing: Many churches reenact Jesus’ act of washing his disciples’ feet, symbolizing humility and service.
  • Last Supper Commemoration: Some churches hold special services to commemorate the Last Supper, often including the distribution of bread and wine.
  • Reflection and Prayer: Christians reflect on Jesus’ teachings and sacrifice, often through prayer and meditation.


Maundy Thursday serves as a reminder of Jesus’ teachings on love, humility, and service. It encourages Christians to follow his example and serve others, particularly those in need.


Maundy Thursday is a meaningful day for Christians to reflect on their faith and relationship with God. It emphasizes the importance of love, humility, and service, inspiring believers to live out their faith in practical ways.
