Hallo
Today (4th May) at 20:31 LT ( 15:01 UT) saw the Iridium 26 as predicted by
Heavens above. About 4 to 5 flashes of -5 to -4 magnitude reddish in color.
Also saw Iridium 77 and 42 at predicted time of 5:21 and 5:22 a.m. LT  on
5th May (23:51 and 23:52 UT on 4th May). Iridium 42 was so bright that I got
one report from nearby place Bhosari of seeing Fire ball. (The person
reporting was unaware of Iridiums).
