In the Line of Duty: The Untold Heroism of Costao Fernandes

The First Cinematic Masterpiece of 2025 Has Quietly Arrived — And It Deserves Your Attention The year may still be young, but Coasta’s Story has already staked its claim as one of 2025’s most powerful cinematic offerings. Released quietly on ZEE5, this deeply moving film chronicles the life of Customs Officer Costao Fernandes — a man whose unwavering commitment to duty came at a tremendous personal cost. Brought to life with quiet brilliance by Nawazuddin Siddiqui, this isn't just a film; it's a salute to all those who fight silent battles in the shadows of bureaucracy and corruption. “Not all heroes wear uniforms in battle — some wear them in silence, carrying the weight of integrity.” In a country where the system is often criticized for being slow, flawed, or unjust, Coasta’s Story reminds us of the unsung heroes who continue to keep that very system standing.

Aircraft vs High-Speed Trains: A Comparison

Modern jet aircraft can travel at speeds of up to 1,000 km/h. However, in commercial operations, planes usually fly at speeds between 500 km/h to 800 km/h, as speed is balanced against fuel consumption. On the other hand, high-speed trains typically reach a maximum of 360 km/h, which is roughly one-third the speed of aircraft. Despite this, trains are still highly competitive. Why is that? What Makes Aircraft “Slow”? Although aircraft travel faster in the air, several factors make their overall journey time longer: 1. Airport Location Airports are usually located outside city centers due to their large space requirements—often spanning several square kilometers. Reaching the airport typically takes around 60 minutes or more. Train stations, in contrast, are usually located in the heart of cities. Even in space-constrained urban areas, train stations can be built underground, making them far more accessible. As a result, the travel time to and from train stations is significantly shorte...
