Where exactly is Arnab Goswami? We accept that we miss him and it’s time he comes back before his team of anchors ruin his years of hard work on Republic TV.

Moving on to serious stuff, we take a look at how on Times Now, Rahul Shivshankar and Navika Kumar celebrate the “silver lining” of GDP contracting as India faces its biggest economic recession since Independence.

We also look at the usual suspects coming together in commemoration of Supreme Leader Modi, who completed seven “historic” years in office. Anand Narsimhan of CNN News18 hailed him as a leader who turned India into an “elected autocracy” because “that's the power of Modiji”. We are as confused as you.

We also take a look at India Today’s assault on our visual senses with a strange visual concoction of gory bruised eyes and beach images of a mystery woman involved in the case of Mehul Choksi, a fugitive Indian jeweller.

Watch.
