If you’ve been scrolling through the news feed this month, you’ve probably seen a few headlines pop up again and again. Those stories made the April 2024 Top Reads list because they grabbed attention, sparked conversations, or simply answered a question many of us had. Below is a quick tour of the biggest clicks, broken down by theme, so you can catch up on anything you missed.
Entertainment and Culture Highlights
Bollywood and festivals dominated the cultural chatter. Anant Ambani’s walk at the Lalbaugcha Raja Ganpati Visarjan drew massive crowds and gave a glimpse of how business families join public celebrations. The story mixed celebrity buzz with the traditional vibe of Mumbai’s biggest Ganpati immersion, which explains why it trended.
Music fans also loved the Ganesh Chaturthi playlist guide. The article listed seven Bollywood tracks that fit every part of the celebration – from the opening procession to the quiet home aarti. Readers appreciated the practical tips on timing each song, so they could set the perfect mood without overthinking.
Weather, Travel, and Safety Updates
India’s monsoon season kept us on our toes. The Delhi weather report warned of rain, humidity, and a temporary dip in air‑quality index, while also hinting at heavier showers later. Commuters found it useful because it told them when to expect traffic snarls and when it might be safer to stay indoors.
Further north, a heavy rainfall alert covered Delhi‑NCR, UP, Punjab, J&K and Himachal Pradesh. The piece explained how saturated soils raise landslide risk in Uttarkashi and gave clear steps for staying safe during sudden downpours. Readers liked the straightforward advice – no jargon, just what to do.
Sports enthusiasts had their fill too. The IPL 2025 opener at Eden Gardens faced a rain threat, and the article broke down the impact of an orange weather alert. It also showed how ground staff prepared the field, which helped fans understand why matches sometimes get delayed.
Cricket came back strong with a series of quick recaps: Pakistan’s collapse against Afghanistan, the Champions Trophy drama in Karachi, and West Indies breaking an eight‑year losing streak against Pakistan. Each story focused on key moments – a decisive 50‑run innings, a four‑wicket haul, or a dropped catch that changed the game. That level of detail kept fans glued.
On the tennis front, the Japan Open 2025 saw PV Sindhu exit early, while rising stars Satwik‑Chirag and Lakshya Sen moved ahead. The article didn’t just list scores; it added Sindhu’s own take on training and endurance, which made the piece feel personal and useful for aspiring players.
Business news also made the cut. The US‑imposed 50% tariff on Indian carpets sent shockwaves through Bhadohi, Kashmir, and Agra. Exporters called for bailouts, faster tax refunds, and new market hunts. The piece laid out the challenges in plain language, so readers could grasp the economic ripple without needing a finance degree.
Finally, tech and innovation sneaked in with a note on Reliance Industries’ AGM. Mukesh Ambani announced a Jio IPO timeline and an AI arm, sparking investor chatter. The article highlighted why shares slipped – mainly because shareholders didn’t see immediate gains – and gave a quick outlook on potential upside.
All these stories share one thing: they answer a real‑world need, whether it’s knowing when to carry an umbrella, figuring out the best Ganesh Chaturthi song, or understanding how a tariff could affect a family’s livelihood. That’s why they topped the April reads list.
