Virat Kohli's Trendy New Sneakers Are An Exclusive Masterpiece Created By The Cricketer Himself

After years of stalking aka following the maestro of all things trendy- Virat Kohli, on social media, we know one thing for sure– never expect the ordinary from him. He has more than often stunned us both on and off-the-field! And he isn't about to stop anytime soon.  In a series of probably many firsts, Virat Kohli laid another maverick off-the-field when he joined hands with PUMA to turn shoe designer and design a classic sneaker for his fans.    View this post on Instagram 100% classic, 100% me! And it's finally here! I'm launching the Basket Classic one8 today. ð It's the very first sneaker that I have designed and it is simple, has a bit of cricket and is perfect for any occasion – just the way I love it! What do you guys think? ð #one8 @PumaIndia @PUMA A post shared by Virat Kohli (@virat.kohli) on Oct 18, 2018 at 12:17am PDT Often spotted flaunting his love for sneakers, Virat sure knows what he wants. Exploring their PUMA Basket collection, Virat set out to make the most of the opportunity, engaging in long conversations with the designers, adding his unique style to the design and creating a mix of comfort and style that suits him the best.   Minimal and stylish, the captain of the Indian cricket team made sure that the sneakers bore more than a few elements inspired by cricket in the design. For instance, the stitched details on the kicks are inspired by the seam on a cricket ball.  PUMA Opting for neutral colours that perfectly team up with every outfit, he kept the variants as simple monochromes – black and white! While the translucent outsole of the sneakers has a futuristic look, the leather upper has a retro vibe. That's a classic Virat move, mixing styles to create a unique piece.  PUMA Designed by Virat for himself and his fans across, the Basket Classic one8 (available in two different colours) is one that you cannot miss. These trendy kicks are absolutely wardrobe goals for any cricket fanatic – 100% classic, 100% Virat!

5 Relatively Unknown NBA Players To Watch Out For In The 2018-19 Season

The new NBA season just started and we've already seen a couple of close games between the Sacramento Kings and Utah Jazz (6 point victory) and the San Antonio Spurs and Minnesota Timberwolves (4 point victory). With so many games yet to be played, there's a lot to look forward to over the next few months. But, who do you watch out for? You have your favourites like LeBron and Durant. But, what about the rest? It's not like these guys are going to be playing every single night. It's only befitting that you find some new names to follow too. So, here's a list of 5 relatively unknown NBA players you should watch out for in the 2018-19 season: Luka Doncic, Dallas Mavericks Source: Getty Images Doncic helped Real Madrid win the Euro League Final Four a few months ago and also picked up the MVP title in the process. Mavericks icon Dirk Nowitzki has a lot of faith in this 19-year-old and believes he's going to be pivotal to the Mavs success in 2018-19. Kawhi Leonard, Toronto Raptors Source: Getty Images With 24 points and 13 rebounds in his first game for the Raptors this season, it's safe to assume this might just end up being his year. The two-time Defensive Player of the Year had a poor end to last season due to injury but on Wednesday, he looked better than ever. We expect to see great things from him in the coming months. Khris Middleton, Milwaukee Bucks Source: Getty Images He's been one of the most accurate shooters for the Bucks over the last few seasons scoring 39.2% of his 3-point attempts. He started all 82 games for them last season and with Mike Budenholzer running the show for them this season, we can expect Middleton to get many more scoring opportunities. That is, if Giannis Antetokounmpo doesn't overshadow him though. Nikola Jokic, Denver Nuggets Source: Getty Images He's considered the best passing center in the NBA right now. Even in terms of shooting and rebounds, he's right up there with the best. If he scores as many points as he did last season, he could end up making the All-Star team among other achievements. The Nuggets are hoping to make it to the playoffs this season and it's safe to say Jokic will have a very important role to play in their success. Jerami Grant, Oklahoma City Thunder Source: Getty Images Jerami Grant is one of the few professional NBA players who can play any position on defence with ease. His versatility is what helped the Thunder out quite a bit last season and it looks like things will only get better this season. Since Carmelo Anthony is no longer with the Thunder, 2018-19 can end up being the season when Jerami Grant's name echoes throughout the halls of the Chesapeake Energy Arena.

8 Hollywood Films That Have Been Copied From Asian Movies

People take 'inspiration' from Hollywood movies, but who do Hollywood directors look up to for ideas? Don't look far, the answer is Asian cinema.  Here is a list of 8 Hollywood movies that we didn't know were a copy of some of the most iconic Asian films:  1. Oldboy (2013) Directed by Spike Lee, this American movie is a not-so-successful remake of Park Chan-wook's iconic 2003 release 'Oldboy'. 'Oldboy' is a neo-noir action thriller about a man, who sets out to find out why he was kidnapped and kept inside a cell for 15 years, unravelling some disturbing secrets in his journey.  The South Korean version is considered to be one of the finest movies ever made, but the American one starring Josh Brolin sadly failed to recreate the same magic.  Show East / Vertigo Entertainment 2. Possession (2009) 'Possession' is a copy of the 2003 South Korean movie 'Addicted'. The movie is about a woman, whose life takes a shocking turn when both her husband and brother-in-law meet with an accident; and her brother-in-law claims that he's her husband after waking up from a coma.  Although the ending of 'Possession' is different, the makers have created an alternate ending as well, that is similar to the original one.  
Cine-2000 Film Production / Vertigo Entertainment  3. The Uninvited (2009) It is a remake of the South Korean psychological horror movie, 'A Tale Of Two Sisters'. The movie is about a patient, recently released from a mental asylum, who returns home with her sister. They soon start to experience disturbing events involving their stepmother and the ghosts haunting their house. 
B.O.M. Film Productions Co. / DreamWorks Pictures 4. Mirrors (2008)  This supernatural horror film is a remake of the 2003 South Korean film 'Into The Mirror'. The movie revolves around a former detective, who comes across a mysterious mirror, which forces people to do horrible things to themselves.   CJ Entertainment / 20th Century Fox 5. The Lake House (2006) Starring Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock, 'The Lake House' is an American remake of 2000 movie 'Il Mare'. The movie revolves around an architect living in 2004 and a doctor living in 2006, who communicate with each other with the help of a mailbox of the house they both lived in at separate time zones.     Dream Venture / Village Roadshow Pictures 6. The Grudge (2004) This American supernatural horror film is a remake of the 2002 film 'Jun-On: The Grudge'. It talks about an evil curse that is 'born when someone dies in the grip of a powerful rage or extreme sorrow.' This curse is repeatedly passed from one victim to another, leading to a growing chain of deaths and endless horror.  Nikkatsu / Ghost House Pictures 7. The Ring (2002) Starring Naomi Watts and David Dorfman, 'The Ring' is the American remake of hit 1998 Japanese horror film 'Ring' or 'Ringu'. It talks about a reporter who is on the run to investigate the mystery behind a cursed videotape that kills the viewer 7 days after watching it.
Ringu/Rasen Production Committee / DreamWorks Pictures 8. Shutter (2008) 'Shutter' is the remake of 2004 Thai supernatural horror movie of the same name. This movie revolves around a photographer, who discovers mysterious shadows in his photographs. 
Phenomena Motion Pictures / Vertigo Entertainment

4 Lessons From Bodybuilding That Effortlessly Apply To Real Life Struggles

The sport of bodybuilding is an extreme one. Competitors often go to extreme lengths to get on the stage which can leave a physical, mental or a social scar on them on the road to get there. This extremity also makes it one of the most loved and supported sport out there. Though bodybuilding is not a sport meant for everyone, it does not take away anything from the fact that bodybuilders at the professional level are few of the most dedicated lot out there. Here are some valuable lessons that everyone can learn from the sport of bodybuilding and incorporate into their lives:  Lesson1- Failure Is Not Exactly A Failure There are times in our lives where we feel like we have lost it all. That the thing ends there and there is no point chasing it as it is just fulfilling self-prophecy. But, is it? It is very common among bodybuilders and people who lift weights in general that they miss a lift and fail at a particular exercise or a particular rep. But do they ever just call it quits and never do that exercise again? Not really. They get back to the exercise in the next session with double the intensity and double the dedication. Translate this into your real life and you will not feel let down by failure. © Pixabay Lesson 2- Patience Always Pays Off It is rightly said that 'Good things come to those who wait.'  I feel the correct extension of it would be 'Good things come to those who wait and work towards it.' When was the last time you heard of a guy who signed for a gym membership one day and won a pro bodybuilding show the very next day? That does not happen. Same goes for anything worth achieving in life. It does not come to you and sit on your lap. You have to be patient and work towards it. Nothing teaches you that like bodybuilding does. Lesson 3- You Will Start Appreciating The Small Gains Humans are a selfish species and this selfishness has made us a bunch of very unhappy people. We are never satisfied with what we have, and we constantly want more and more.  And not a little more, A LOT MORE!  In bodybuilding, after the newbie phase is over, your muscle building rates drop drastically. Even the top pros step on stage every year at the same bodyweight or with a gain of a couple pounds of muscle at most. A year worth of work for 1-2 lbs. of muscle. Funny, right? But they are the happiest people on the planet when they gain these 1-2 lbs. Because they know how tough it is to get that. Bodybuilding teaches you to appreciate the small gains and value it as they are rather than making it a comparison game. © Pixabay Lesson 4- Transformation Never Stops There has been no recorded history of a bodybuilder saying that they are happy with the progress they have made and would stop working altogether on improving their physique.  The transformation never stops. It is ever moving forward.  The same goes for your goals, ambitions, and milestones in life. It should never stop at a point.  Reached a point? Good. There is always a step forward and you should be ever motivated to take that step forward and work hard towards it. Bodybuilding, thus, truly teaches you the reality of life. Author bio: Pratik Thakkar is the co-founder and director of GetSetGo Fitness, an online fitness company. He is regarded as someone who will make it easy for you to understand the process by putting things in the right context and providing science-based recommendations for natural bodybuilding.

10 Women Tell Us The Right Way To Approach Them On Tinder

While we see the #MeToo movement pick up the pace in India, we also see men become a little more conscious of how they should talk and behave with women. In hindsight, it's a good thing but the very fact they have to be so conscious about their behaviour is a little sad.  Sad because appropriate behaviour should be the foundation of every articulation and action taken by a man and if they have to put a conscious effort to do so, then it's rather unnerving.  I am not negating the fact that men aren't making an effort in this generation, of course, they are and they're doing it quite well but the effort should come from a place of concern and reformation than fear of being named and shamed. Having said that, men wanting to date, hit on or hook up with women still hasn't changed and the culture still remains the same, barring some decorum changes, to say the least. But even with these decorum changes, you can offend a woman because momentarily, everything falls under the realms of sensitivity. How to meet women is still the question of the hour, and you should definitely find more ways and means to do so. As long as you keep up with the standards of appropriateness, it's all good folks.  Tinder and other dating apps are still your go-to place to meet the women you really want to date or hook up with. How to start a conversation with them though, is what's important here. So, I rounded up 10 women and asked them what was the best conversation starter for men on Tinder (and other dating apps) to stay on the 'safer side' and I got some rather interesting replies: (1) Tinder is usually a scary place for me and I never really initiate a conversation there. But this one time a guy started off by being humorous and I humoured him because he was actually funny. I think it's best to start with something funny, to be on the safer side. He started his message by saying - 'Titanic. There's an icebreaker'. How could I not talk to him!  - Sakshi, 28 © YouTube (2) I think the best way to start a conversation on a dating app is by saying a simple 'hey'. I can't stand it when men try too hard and crack really sad line openers, which no one understands.  - Ragini, 22 (3) I'd really like a guy who'd just stop being cocky and start by saying 'hey how was your day?'. Because it's good to talk about your day with someone. Hasn't happened so far. - Sonya, 28 (4) I once went out with the guy on Tinder who asked me if it's okay to DM me further. I found it so humble, I thought I was in safe hands. - Sanya, 25 (5) The whole thing is to make a person feel safe. So please don't be creepy. I think the best opening line for Tinder is 'Hey, what's up'. Simple.  Nitisha, 30 (6) I can't stand guys who show off. So if you want to start with an 'I own a BMW and I've been to 32 countries'. Like what's wrong with these men?   - Rhea, 25 (7) I'd like it if the men out there are not sexist or put you down and talk with civility and not get persuasive. Because then that gets scary. So a good opener would be 'hey, it would be nice to get to know you'. Something like that? - Mika, 24 (8) 'Hi, I know we don't know each other but I'd like to take a chance and get to know you because we have similar interests!' - said no one ever. I wish they'd say something like this, instead of a cheesy pickup line. I barf every time that happens! - Kanishka, 27 (9) Can they please stop with the cheesy pickup lines? It's just annoying now. And it gives a sense of entitlement. I mean, I'm entitled to say anything I want and she has to laugh. Why can't they just say 'hey'. I promise women will respond and not unmatch you. - Tarini, 29 (10) Anything without being creepy, crude or horny works just fine. Even a simple 'hi' - Sukanya, 19 So, there we have it. Ten women telling us to keep it simple when you're interacting with someone on an online dating platform. Because this is what the need of the hour is.  We want to continue the normalcy but also not promote ways that are offensive. So maybe say something really funny or something really grounded, like a 'hi'!

5 Successful YouTubers Share Their Money-Making Trade Secrets

If you are deep into the world of social media, then there wouldn't have been a single day when you didn't come across a viral YouTube video on one platform or the another.  The booming industry of producing YouTube videos usually stems from the basic need to share information and knowledge with a community of viewers with similar interests. But with the immense success and recognition, that the platform is capable of bringing to its creators, money has closely started to follow behind the early intentions. The Hindu once reported that “over 300 hours of video are uploaded to YouTube every minute, and five million videos are watched every day.” With such impressive numbers, it shouldn't come as a surprise that the monetary benefits from YouTube are a major reason why more and more people are getting onto the platform. Earlier this year, YouTube made some changes to its monetisation policies which affected many niche content creators. As per the new requirements, creators now need 1,000 subscribers and 4,000 hours of watch time within the past 12 months. Getting to this point is a tough task, especially if you are just starting out. Fret not, we did some research on your behalf and found out what these 5 successful YouTubers have to say about getting those numbers, and making big bucks through YouTube:  1. Sandeep Maheshwari Known for his insightful motivational talks and poignant YouTube videos, Maheshwari also happens to be the fastest growing entrepreneur in India, who founded Imagesbazaar.com.  In the video posted below, Sandeep lays down the basics of the money-making aspect of YouTube for beginners to grasp, apply to their channels and grow it into a business over time. 2. Deadbeat Super Affiliate As the name suggests, Dan Brock sure knows a thing or two about how to churn out big bucks through affiliate marketing on YouTube. If you do not know what affiliate marketing is, then perhaps that's where you should start from. Affiliate marketing is one of the biggest ways of earning on YouTube, and the trick Brock shares in this video, will surely do the trick if done right. 3. BeerBiceps Most of you already know the guy and probably also swear by his content. Ranveer is not just a certified fitness and wellness coach, but also a highly successful YouTube influencer. In the following TEDx Talks video, he shares his own success story in great details and also imparts the audience with insider's tricks of how to employ different tactics to generate income using your YouTube brand. 4. Ur IndianConsumer Prasad Vedpathak aka Ur IndianConsumer on YouTube, is a reviewer and vlogger who has established himself as a credible brand for honest tech reviews. His video on how to make money on YouTube is a comprehensive guide for anyone who is new to this platform, and wishes to learn the tricks of the trade. Trust the guy to honestly give it to you in this video. 5. Video Influencers In the following video, Sean Cannell effectively elaborates on 5 solid ways of making money on YouTube. The detailed video will help you understand not only the basics of monetisation, but also the little intricacies of generating revenue.

A Man's Guide To Getting Ready For A Wedding Reception In 5 Easy Steps

The wedding season is here, and if you're even remotely social, you must already have a pile of invitations. As enjoyable as the idea of attending a wedding reception might be, it honestly is a lot of work.  You need to look good, not only because of societal norms, but also because of the fact that it's extremely likely that you might just run into someone you're into, and you should just be safe in terms of being, well, 'not repulsive'. But if we look at it systematically, it can be done, and easily so. Here are 5 easy steps that you can follow to get ready for a wedding reception without breaking a sweat, and not missing out on anything: 1. Get A Salon Appointment © en.uaezoom The first step, obviously, is grooming. Please take an appointment at a good salon, and get a good haircut. If you have facial hair, take care of shaping and grooming that as well. Please do that at least a day in advance, to avoid last minute hassle, or any redness/rashes. 2. Get A Manicure (& Pedicure Too, If Possible) © Shutterstock You will be socializing while holding a wine/cocktail glass. Women notice the finer details, like nail hygiene. Trust us. Also, an Indian wedding might have certain occasions that will require you to take off your shoes. So, go for a manicure and pedicure for brownie points. 3. Get Your Clothes Dry-Cleaned/Ironed In Advance © Shutterstock Rummaging for clothes at the last minute can be a sartorial suicide. Please make sure you know well in advance what you're wearing. Get them out, and give them for dry cleaning/ironing/laundry if required. That can reduce your stress by a great deal on the day of the reception/function, plus who doesn't like freshly laundered and ironed clothes? 4. Get A Facial © Donner Hubb Yes, we know you're probably thinking that's stretching it a bit, but trust us, you need your skin to look good. The lights can be unforgiving, and the competition fierce (in case you want a date). The choice is yours. 5. Use A Great Perfume © FreeDesignFile One of the most underrated, yet most important steps is to smell incredible. If you smell great, half the battle is won. Plus, there is a possibility that you might dance at some point, which means you will sweat. A good perfume will save your back. Apart from these steps, please also do the obvious things, such as taking a proper shower before getting ready, and carrying breath mints for those after-dinner conversations. Good luck!

10-Year-Old Arshdeep Singh Makes India Proud, Wins 2018 Wildlife Photographer Of The Year Award

Do you remember what you were doing at the age of 10? Whatever it was, I can guarantee it wasn't anything close to winning the Wildlife Photographer of the Year award. Arshdeep Singh is just 10-years-old and he's already officially cooler than me. He won the exciting award for his photograph 'Pipe Owls' in the 10-years-and-under category. The Wildlife Photographer of the Year competition is organised by Britain's Natural History Museum. No wonder he won though, just look at how cool the picture he clicked is! © Natural History Museum There's obviously a story behind the picture as well.  Arshdeep came across a spotted owlet popping its head out from an old waste-pipe while he was driving through Punjab's Kapurthala with his father.  After asking his father to stop the car, he rested the camera on the half-open window of the car at eye level, and soon enough, a second owlet popped up and he captured the moment beautifully. I don't know exactly what happened, but it feels like the entire thing went something like this – View this post on Instagram wait for it #catsofinstagram #cats #thedailykitten #cutepetclub #bestmeow #myroommateisacat #catsofworld #instapet #petsofinstagram #kittens #9gagnoticeme A post shared by @ charlieisahoe on Sep 20, 2017 at 12:52pm PDT Turns out the photography talent runs in the family; Arshdeep's father is Randeep Singh, a well-known photographer. He's been around photography his whole life and started clicking pictures at the age of six and then ventured into the field of wildlife photography in 2012. Wait, there are more ways in which this little boy is cooler than us. His photographs have previously been featured in Lonely Planet UK, Lonely Planet Germany, Lonely Planet India, BBC Wildlife UK and more.

This Viral Twitter Thread Is Clearing Out The Confusion On How Men Can Help The #MeToo Movement

While the #MeToo movement has been rapidly growing and grasping the intrinsic issues of society today, there are a lot of questions being raised for its prominence.  A number of eminent people have been named and shamed and a lot many people have been called out for their despicable conduct, in major cities and smaller towns.  While the movement is for both men and women alike, more women have come out with some harsh stories of sexual abuse and harassment than men have, according to the statistics and the figures seem to be tilting this particular way so far. © Reuters While the survivors and the victims are coming out in large number with their stories of abuse and sharing them all over the interweb, while accosting the accused, we mustn't forget this is a tough time for all the men out there too.  Not the men who've been accused, of course, but the other men who're either with the movement in full momentum, giving their two cents or the men who're sitting on the fence or even the men who do not want to be involved in it.  Well, guess what? You're involved in this regardless of fact that you want to turn a blind eye towards the entire situation. The #MeToo movement isn't about instilling certain fears in everyone (especially men) to be wary of every action and interaction in society, pertaining to women. It's just symbolic for normalcy and equality in a society, which is governed by a sheer sense of entitlement and ownership that is so blatantly displayed today. This notion has definitely left most men confused though. While they struggle to normalise situations in society they're also drawing a blank while thinking 'what next'. But in accordance with the movement, men have a stringent role to play. They have a sense of responsibility they cannot easily evade and dismiss. So, if you're confused on how to partake or be responsible in this women-led movement, journalist HR Venkatesh has some sound advice for you, through a Twitter thread.  It doesn't matter if you're a survivor or the accused, someone who doesn't want to get too involved or someone who has raised his voice, this thread is for everyone (especially men), telling us about how to actively get involved in the movement, which is affecting everyone in the country currently. Yes, the responsibility is yours and yours alone! © Facebook How can we men help the #metooIndia movement? Some say "step up", some say "don't drown out women's voices." Some (men) ask, "why should we do anything at all?" So this here is a rolling compilation of what we should do and why: — H R Venkatesh (@hrvenkatesh) 16 October 2018 1/n. Offer your time. Many men want to be seen as doing good too, which is OK. But now is not the time to seek the spotlight. Volunteer to do background work. For eg: If there's a march, offer to arrange refreshments, or just show up. — H R Venkatesh (@hrvenkatesh) 16 October 2018 This effort to crowdfund is potential one way to help: https://t.co/Nu3b7LFD94 — H R Venkatesh (@hrvenkatesh) 16 October 2018 3/n. If we men want to speak up, but aren't sure exactly what to say, a good way is to retweet tweets by the likes of @TheRestlessQuil @Raksha_Kumar @MasalaBai @AnooBhu @ghazalawahab etc. — H R Venkatesh (@hrvenkatesh) 16 October 2018 4/n. Believe the stories by women. We men might feel like we're under attack, but honestly these stories of sexual harassment are NOT an attack on men, but about justice and patriarchy. — H R Venkatesh (@hrvenkatesh) 16 October 2018 5/n. Read this piece: "How men can show solidarity with the #metoo movement." Applies to India too. https://t.co/j7swsatcp6 — H R Venkatesh (@hrvenkatesh) 17 October 2018 Another article that helps as well. https://t.co/x9TV8jyjZP — H R Venkatesh (@hrvenkatesh) 17 October 2018 6/n. Finally, what if we men feel guilty about our own behaviour? Even if we haven't sexually harassed/abused someone, there's a chance that we've been ass****s to women. What do we do then? + — H R Venkatesh (@hrvenkatesh) 17 October 2018 In that case, we'd have to continue showing our support, while acknowledging that we're all products of a society that has for thousands of years treated women as inferior and playthings. — H R Venkatesh (@hrvenkatesh) 17 October 2018 To finish with a disclaimer about the larger reality of being a man: I've been a problematic male. For years, I thought I was 'woke' when I wasn't even close to it. People who know me well know this. For guys like me, shedding the chains of patriarchy is the work of a lifetime. — H R Venkatesh (@hrvenkatesh) 17 October 2018 And do not, repeat do not, try to derail the movement by:
-But she is left/right wing woman
-But what about innocent men
-But she got benefitted from it so why is she complaining
-But it happened 20 years ago
-But she did not object first time
Etc etc etc. — Padmaja (@padmajasreeni) 17 October 2018 Men like you are disgusting who will do anything to get into pants of females even if it involves pushing  innocent into despair via the vigilante mobs of #metoo happy to destroy a man honour, life and career merely based on women words and prejudice thar women are prosecuted 𤢠— Asvathama Prasad (@damned_men) 17 October 2018 In India - a woman is "innocent" until proven guilty,  a man is "guilty" until proven innocent..!! @Actor_Siddharth — à¤à¤ à¤à¤à¤¸à¤¾à¤¨ (@Indian4Insaan) 16 October 2018 Hey why is it so difficult to understand that one should not jump to conclusions, a tweet alone isn't enough to brand someone a sexual predator be it a man or woman so be reasonable dont go crzy when the accused defends himself, be reasonable — Divyanshu Mehta (@divyanshumehta) 18 October 2018 Support women in your life to come out with their stories. It isn't going to be pretty but support is all that they need. — Elisha (@e_lisha) 17 October 2018 https://t.co/nx5S08IoOb — Balaraj A.R (@ArBalaraj) 17 October 2018 The biggest cuck I've seen this week... — MSK (@MSK45925396) 17 October 2018 By not being hypocrite wrt ideology — हिनà¥à¤¦à¥ राषà¥à¤à¥à¤°à¤µà¤¾à¤¦à¤¿à¥¤ð®ð³ (@DharmSansthapam) 17 October 2018 This thread is a definite eye-opener and very relevant to the trying times our country is facing.

Virat Kohli Gets His 'Oscar Moment', Bags An Award For Best 'Non-Acting By A Main Lead'

The beautiful game of cricket is not new to exceptional talents dominating their respective eras.  Sir Don Bradman was in a class of his own in the good old days. Then, Sachin Tendulkar came along and dominated international cricket during his time. And, now, Virat Kohli has established himself as a modern-day great, who continues to ascend in both stature and popularity. Ever since appearing on the international circuit, Kohli has taken huge strides to arguably become the best batsman in the world. From his impeccable batting skills to envious fitness levels, Kohli has proved to be a nightmare for the opposition. His consistency with the willow has allowed the Delhi lad to shatter one record after another in cricket. © Reuters At the age of 29, Kohli is the world's best batsman, captain of the Indian cricket team, a World Cup winner and a Khel Ratna awardee (India's highest sporting honour). It's safe to say that Kohli has possibly won everything there is in the world of cricket. And, more recently, he added another award to his ever-growing trophy cabinet. Continuing his winning run, Kohli bagged an award for his outstanding acting in a movie that was never made. Confused? Check this out. Getting it right when you think you got it all WROGN ðð¤ð»@StayWrogn #TrailerTheMovie pic.twitter.com/htlWP6L7wx — Virat Kohli (@imVkohli) October 17, 2018 Taking to Twitter, the Indian captain shared a small video of himself where he was seen holding a trophy which looked like an Oscar. “This is unbelievable, best award for best non-acting by a main lead for trailer the movie. I would like to thank wrogn production for never making the movie and to my audience for not watching the movie, this was a fake movie so a fake award,” he said in the hilarious video. Another debut after 10 years, can't wait! ð #TrailerTheMovie https://t.co/zDgE4JrdDT pic.twitter.com/hvcovMtfAV — Virat Kohli (@imVkohli) September 21, 2018 Back in September, Kohli had teased his fans with a tweet that hinted at the cricket sensation potentially making his acting debut in "Trailer - The Movie". "Another debut after 10 years, can't wait! #TrailerTheMovie," Kohli had tweeted.  We did put the right date on the poster, it's just that we decided to release it on the #Wrogn date. ð
So, without further ado, here is #TrailerTheMovie. Check it out while I prepare my Oscar acceptance speech. ð @StayWrogn #StayMadStayWrogn https://t.co/zDgE4JIP2t pic.twitter.com/0dY4oXz56z — Virat Kohli (@imVkohli) September 26, 2018 Later, he shared a teaser before eventually releasing the full clip. And, as expected, the video - projected like a movie - was, in fact, a promotional stunt for his clothing brand. But, that didn't stop Kohli from joking around with his Oscar acceptance speech. Forced to contend with a fake Oscar, Kohli will now be eager to get his hands on a real trophy, as he readies his battalion for the five-match One-Day International (ODI) series against West Indies which is slated to begin from 21st October in Guwahati.

The Internet Declares 'Badhaai Ho' As The Only Movie That Needs To Be Watched Over The Weekend

The Ayushmann Khurrana and Sanya Malhotra starrer 'Badhaai Ho' released today and the verdict is already out.  The internet has already declared it loud and clear that Ayushmann rules the roost on the big screen for now. Badhaai Ho reviews are so good. @ayushmannk is competing with himself this weekend, with Andhadhun receiving so much love too. That's the kind of competition you need. Yay! â¤ï¸ — Manpreet Kaur (@Manpreeeeeet) October 17, 2018 Just watched #BadhaaiHo and have to say @ayushmannk sir again a very brilliant job..as always also I think now every Indian will understand the sweet message from the movie of #savethegirlchild loved itâ¤ï¸â¤ï¸ — Sourav Narayan (@carcrazysourav) October 18, 2018 The movie also stars the supremely talented Neena Gupta, who is back on the screen after a while, and she is winning hearts out there.  #BadhaaiHo is great fun! @raogajraj steals every single scene he's in; commendable with the fantastic cast of @ayushmannk @Neenagupta001 and @sanyamalhotra07. And don't miss Surekha Sikri as a cranky, yet adorable grandmum!#BadhaaiHoReview #BadhaaiHoMovieReview — Neil Soans (@RollingSoans) October 17, 2018 #BadhaaiHo is such a heartwarming movie. I laughed, I cried and I missed my family so much! @Neenagupta001, @raogajraj and Surekha Sukri are the real stars of the movie. Watch this one with your families. Amit Sharma, Badhaai Ho :) — Wo Madrasi Kudi (@dishya_sharma) October 17, 2018 Seems like everyone's loving the fact that there's a family entertainer after such a long time, for everyone to savour. Watched #BadhaaiHo and absolutely loved it. Set to be @ayushmannk's 2nd consecutive mega hit.
Surprisingly the curse of second half in Bollywood films is slowly diminishing.
Go watch the film with your friends and family this dussehra. Recommended!
â­â­â­â­
#BadhaaiHoReview — Yash Paryani (@FilmyYash) October 17, 2018 It is unfair on other actors for @ayushmannk to chunk out two of the best movies of the year! #BadhaaiHo is wow. Keep soaring, our self proclaimed SRKian. â¤ï¸ — Hipster (@Hipsterrrific) October 18, 2018 In case you were living under a rock and have no idea what this movie is about, now is a good time to know. So, in case you have no movie plans for the weekend, you should probably make one now?

Ayushmann Khurrana Just Stepped Out Wearing The Biggest Pants We've Seen This Year

Ayushmann Khurrana is on a roll. The multi-talented actor has been delivering good performances consistently for quite some time now, and his films are turning out to be really entertaining. However, he clearly is adept at carrying more than just big films on his able shoulders.  His clothes are big too, quite literally. Confused? Take a look at the trousers he stepped out wearing, for 'Badhaai Ho' screening. © Instagram - Isha Bhansali © Viral Bhayani As big as those pants are, we absolutely love them. The pleated, super wide silhouette looks phenomenal, mainly because of their construction and fall. We like fact that they have been paired with the grey jacket, and a translucent white shirt. © Viral Bhayani When it comes to accessories, we totally like the minimalistic vibe going on with the statement glasses and the watch. The fact that he hasn't gone overboard, shows that he totally understands the nuances of the new-age street aesthetic. © Instagram - Isha Bhansali When you have a pair of pants that are this statement, you can totally wear a super simple shirt and button it up till the top for a sophisticated and ramp-ready look. Adding a jacket would be ideal when it comes to dealing with the nip in the air, for the fancy evening stroll. © Viral Bhayani We love the chunky white sneakers that he has been wearing frequently of late. They clearly are super versatile. In a nutshell, we are loving this unusual aesthetic, Ayushmann. Kudos!

A Post About Co-Existence & Hindu-Muslim People Living In Harmony Is Winning The Internet

I have a question for everyone – The world will be such a better place if there was no hate and everyone just co-existed peacefully. No, I don't want to sound preachy, I'm just stating facts. And, to prove that point even further, here's a Facebook post by Sania Ahmad Hasan talking about how people being respectful and living in harmony is important. She starts off by saying she lives in Jamia Nagar in New Delhi, a place where a good percentage of the population is Muslim. She wrote, “I live in the predominantly Muslim area of Jamia Nagar in Delhi. There are a few Hindu families that live near my house though.” As everyone knows, Navratras just ended and how important it is to a lot of people. Her post further said, “In an area of mosques every few kilometres, there is a small temple for these families here. Nowadays, because of Navratras, the temple plays bhajans all day.” She went on to talk about the respectful and nice gesture from all the people there, that might be small, but means so much more. She said, “However, during each of the azaans, they pause the bhajans. On the other side, the Muslim meat shops near their houses put up a black curtain and sell their wares discreetly from behind it during these 9 nights, in respect of their fast and sentiments.” The last line, the conclusion and the proof of my first point – “The beauty of peaceful co-existence! Sigh!” It's a small story but every tiny thing matters and these gestures probably meant a lot to all the Muslim and Hindu people living in the area. The post has so many people appreciating the kind actions of people, and even asking more stories like this, so people can understand the importance of co-existence. Spread humanity! Yes. It's all about respect.

Azhar Ali's Comical Run-Out Against Australia Leaves Cricket Fans In Splits

After playing out a draw in the first Test, the second match between Pakistan and Australia in Abu Dhabi is turning out to be quite a funny affair. Eager to put their best foot forward, Pakistan were aided majorly by Sarfraz Ahmed and Fakhar Zaman in the first innings to reach a competitive total early on. But, despite scoring a brilliant 94 in the first innings, Sarfraz found himself trending on social media for his unique batting stance. While some couldn't help but poke fun at the Pakistan captain, others highlighted how fearless and confident he seemed against Nathan Lyon who has been on a high in the Test series. Interesting batting stance from Sarfaraz Ahmed #PAKvAUS #Cricket pic.twitter.com/GK9vtG3quE — #PAKvAUS (@QHACricket) October 16, 2018 And, now, another funny incident has come to the fore. During the third day's play, Azhar Ali was carrying the baton for Pakistan while batting in tandem with Asad Shafiq. The right-hander had already amassed 64 runs and looked set to build on his innings. However, carelessness and mediocrity spelt doom for the Pakistani batsman. In the 52nd over of the second innings, Ali went for a drive and eventually edged the ball past the gully fielder. Backing the ball to reach the fence, the Pakistani batsman walked down the pitch to have a chat with his partner at the non-striker's end. But, what Ali didn't realise was that the ball had stopped inches away from the ropes. Unbelievable. ð³

Azhar Ali run out whilst chatting with Shafiq in the middle, thinking he's hit a four. Except he didn't. Dumb and dumber.

Easily the stupidest piece of cricket I've ever seen in 35 years of watching and playing cricket.

Pakistan bloody Zindabad.#PAKvsAUS pic.twitter.com/nhFgRoq2aw — Abu Eesa Niamatullah (@Niamatullah) October 18, 2018 Unperturbed by the development in the outfield, Ali continued to chat with his partner Shafiq. But, the Australian players weren't as careless as their Pakistani counterpart. Mitchell Starc chased the ball, picked it up and threw it back to Tim Paine who whipped the bails off in a flash. Surprised by the commotion, Ali didn't realise that his carelessness and casual attitude had cost his team a vital wicket. And, by the time he realised what had happened, Ali looked shell-shocked as he stood in disbelief before eventually taking the long back into the hut. The dismal incident might have left his team disappointed, but it sure has left cricket fans in splits. Here's a look at the social media reactions on Ali's farcical run-out: this team found another way to entertain you :)ð — vineet (@vineet_designer) October 18, 2018 pakistan are the equivalent to Arsenal FC ð #Talented — Shahnyboy (@Shahny786) October 18, 2018 This team just can not disappoint you ..they will find new ways to get you entertained..#Azharali #PAKvAUS #AUSvsPAK — arvind (@arvind_1352) October 18, 2018 Classic Pakistan. ð — Ronald D.

Sledged By Mohammed Siraj, Prithvi Shaw Smashes 16 Runs Off 3 Balls In A Befitting Reply

For a someone who shot to prominence as a 14-year-old when he scored 546 runs off 330 balls in Mumbai's famed Harris Shield tournament, Prithvi Shaw has come a long way to establish himself as one of most exciting young talents in Indian cricket. The youngster made a sensational debut for Team India when he smashed a brilliant 134 in the first Test against West Indies in Rajkot. In the process, he became the youngest Indian batsman to score a ton on his Test debut. He, then, followed it up with a quickfire 70 in the first innings of the second Test in Hyderabad. While India blanked a hapless Windies 2-0 in the Test series, it was undoubtedly the 18-year-old who stood out amongst some of the biggest names in international cricket. Scoring 237 runs in three innings against the visiting side, Shaw deservingly bagged the Man of the Series award in his maiden stint with the senior team. © BCCL His consistency with the willow, then, saw him being added into the Mumbai squad for the semifinals of the ongoing Vijay Hazare Trophy. And, Shaw didn't disappoint the selectors. Carrying his red-hot form into India's domestic 50-over tournament, Shaw enthralled the local crowd yet again with his strokeful innings. The right-hander clobbered a blistering 44-ball 61, which included eight fours and two sixes, to propel Mumbai into the tournament's final. While Shaw's brilliant knock earned him a lot of plaudits, it was the temperament of the youngster that won over Mumbai captain Rohit Sharma and the cricket fans on the social media. At a tender age, Shaw showcased great maturity during Mumbai's chase despite being sledged by an opposition bowler. In the eighth over of Mumbai's innings, Mohammed Siraj bowled a bouncer to Shaw who tried to play the upper-cut but missed. Siraj, then, walked close to Shaw and the duo exchanged a few words on the pitch. The next two deliveries saw Shaw, first, losing his bat while playing a stroke and then missing a ball that had kept low. pic.twitter.com/oTribPKcjs — Mushfiqur Fan (@NaaginDance) October 17, 2018 With the duel between the two Indian cricketers brewing up, Shaw's response to the sledging was arguably one that would have made every cricket coach proud.  India's latest batting sensation responded with the willow, playing some majestic strokes around the ground. He played an upper-cut on the fourth delivery to send the ball soaring over the boundary, then unleashed the hook shot to claim another six and finally pulled the last ball for a four. pic.twitter.com/ahlfN8QG2S — Mushfiqur Fan (@NaaginDance) October 17, 2018 Shaw's befitting reply to Siraj impressed his skipper Rohit so much, that he couldn't stop himself from walking towards the youngster and giving him a hug. Following some angry stares on the first three deliveries of the eighth over, Shaw let his bat do the talking and smashed 16 runs off the next three balls.  Chasing Hyderabad's total of 246, Mumbai didn't break a sweat. Rohit and co were cruising at 155/2 in 25 overs when rain halted play and spelt doom for the Ambati Rayudu-led Hyderabad. With their total much ahead of the par score of 95/2, the unrelenting rain meant Mumbai registered a 60-run win via the V Jayadevan (VJD) method - an alternative to the prominent Duckworth-Lewis (D/L) method - and secured their berth for the final.

Vikas Bahl Slaps A Defamation Case For Rs. 10 Crores Against Anurag Kashyap & Vikramaditya Motwane

Seems like the Vikas Bahl drama amidst the #MeToo movement is getting murkier by the day. After being accused of harassment and misconduct by Kangana Ranaut and another employee of Phantom Films, the director has been under the radar, as far as his social image is concerned. © Instagram Recently the co-founders of Phantom Films, Anurag Kashyap and Vikramditya Motwane announced that the production house was being dissolved. pic.twitter.com/5Fz6792AWy — Vikramaditya Motwane (@VikramMotwane) October 5, 2018 Phantom was a dream, a glorious one and all dreams come to an end . We did our best and we succeeded and we failed. But i know for sure we will come out of this stronger, wiser and will continue to pursue our dreams our own individual ways. We wish each other the best. — Anurag Kashyap (@anuragkashyap72) October 5, 2018 However, seems like Vikas Bahl is in no mood to sit still and hence, has slapped a 10 crore defamation suit against former partners Anurag Kashyap and Vikramaditya Motwane.  Vikas wants the two to restrain themselves from making any statements about him in the media. He has also stepped down as the director of 'Super 30' starring Hrithik Roshan.  Phantom Films, which was started by Anurag Kashyap, Vikramaditya Motwane, Vikas Bahl and Madhu Mantena back in 2011, has big projects like 'Udta Punja', 'Lootera' and 'Sacred Games' under its wing.

The Huawei Porsche Design Mate 20 Phone Has Triple Rear Cameras & A Very Expensive Price Tag

The Mate 20 series, as it turns out, now consists of four brand new phones, the Mate 20, the Mate 20 Pro, the Mate 20 X, and the limited edition Mate 20 RS Porsche Design. All of these phones pack something unique, but at their core, lie varied degrees of notch design, a Kirin 980 chipset and Leica-tuned triple rear cameras. The most interesting phone is the Mate 20 RS though. It borrows most of its specs from the Mate 20 Pro but has an "uncompromised design" with an added bit of luxury.  The Huawei Porsche Design Mate 10 RS is just over six months old, but the company is already back with a successor, the Mate 20 RS. © Huawei Instead of the glass rear, the Mate 20 RS has a premium leather. There is a vertical strip of glass at the centre that runs from the top to the bottom of the back panel of the Mate 20 RS.   It is equipped with a 6.4-inch AMOLED QHD+ screen with an aspect ratio of 19.5:9. Powering the phone is Huawei's homebred Kirin 980 chipset, the world's first 7nm technology SoC with 6.9 billion transistors. Apple's A12 Bionic chipset is the only other equivalent that is built using the 7nm process.   © Huawei It borrows the same triple camera setup from the Mate 20, consisting of a 40-megapixel sensor with f/1.8 wide-angle lens, a 20-megapixel sensor with f/2.2 ultra-wide lens and an 8-megapixel f/2.2 telephoto camera. On the front is a 24-megapixel selfie shooter.  It is packed with a 4200mAh battery, that supports 40W SuperCharge fast charging and 15W wireless charging. It comes with 8GB RAM and 512GB of internal storage and is also IP68 dust and water resistant.  When it comes to security, the Mate 20 Porsche Design offers both the in-display fingerprint scanner and 3D face unlock.  © Huawei Reverse fast charging allows the Mate 20 RS to charge other wireless charging capable devices including smartphones by simply piggybacking them to phone. The phone is priced at €1,695 (Rs 1,45,000) for the 256GB variant and €2,095 (Rs 1,77,000) for the 512GB variant. It will be available in the European markets starting soon.

Xiaomi Confirms That The Mi Mix 3 Will Have 10 GB Of RAM & 5G Support

Xiaomi has officially confirmed that the Mi Mix 3 will have some mind-blowing specifications that nobody expected. The Chinese company teased something with a poster via Weibo, however, the company later confirmed a few details about the upcoming smartphone.  The Mi Mix 3 will be among the first few smartphones that will have 5G support and will also be one of the first to feature 10GB of RAM.  © Weibo We've already seen smartphones that sport 8GB of RAM which is more than enough to run Android on smartphones. 10 GB of RAM definitely feels like an overkill, but one never knows how it would work with MIUI.  5G networks seem more interesting, as this technology won't be available in every country until 2019.  © Xiaomi Chipsets that support 5G connectivity are not currently available for OEM's to implement in their smartphones, which begs the question that how did Xiaomi do it. It seems like the smartphone is using an external modem, probably Qualcomm's X24 or X50 to achieve this. The two external modems are probably working in tandem with Snapdragon 845 and may cause battery drain.  Pricing Details: The 6GB RAM/64GB storage variant will be priced at $510 while the Ceramic Edition will cost $660. The 6GB RAM/128GB variant will cost $555 and $705 for the Ceramic Edition. The 8GB/128GB option will be listed at $600 and $750 for the Standard and Ceramic Editions respectively.  Lastly, the 8GB/256GB variant will cost $645 (Standard model) and $795 for the Ceramic Edition.
