    Any South Indian movie fan will agree that the kind of aesthetics we enjoyed in the action movies, with heroes jumping off trains and punches landing the bad guy flying in the air, the whole vibe was unmatched until a few years ago. One of the biggest action flicks in recent times was Heropanti, which was also the debut movie of action star Tiger Shroff, the man known to be more fluid than water.


    While the masses loved the movie, only true fans know that this was actually a remake of Allu Arjun’s Parugu, which follows the same storyline of a guy falling in love with a girl under different circumstances. The film even won two Nandi awards and a Filmfare award.


    Talking about the two movies and their budgets, while Parugu had a box office collection of over Rs 21.1 crore, Tiger took the lead over Bunny as Heropanti ended up making over Rs 77 crore.
    Heropanti 2 is currently being filmed with Tara Sutaria and Tiger, and on the other hand, Allu Arjun is riding the success wave after Pushpa.

    Sourav Ganguly’s elder brother Snehasis Ganguly has slammed the senior wicket-keeper Wriddhiman Saha for making public the β€˜private’ conversation he had with the BCCI President a few months ago.
    After he was dropped from India’s Test squad for the upcoming two-match series against Sri Lanka, Saha has gone on to make some shocking revelations about different individuals, including the BCCI chief and the current head coach of the Indian cricket team Rahul Dravid.
    View this post on Instagram
    Just a couple of hours after the squad was announced, the 37-year-old keeper gave an interview where he revealed that Ganguly had sent him a WhatsApp message congratulating him on his brilliant match-saving knock against New Zealand in Kanpur in November last year.
    Apart from praising him for his wonderful knock, the former India skipper, in the same conversation, had also promised the keeper that he shouldn’t worry about his place in the Indian squad, at least till he was at the helm.

    β€œAfter scoring 61 against New Zealand at Kanpur, Dadi (Sourav Ganguly) congratulated me over WhatsApp and mentioned, β€˜As long as I’m here (helming the BCCI), you would be in the team’. Such a message from the BCCI president really boosted my confidence. What I’m struggling to understand is how things have changed so fast,” the wicketkeeper-batsman had told The Indian Express.

    However, just a few months later he was kicked out of the red-ball squad by the selectors. What has hurt the veteran cricketer the most was the lack of transparency from the decision-makers.

    The head coach Rahul Dravid had conveyed to him that he won’t be part of Team India’s plan going forward, while the chairman of selector Chetan Sharma said it wasn’t the end of the road and that he could make a comeback depending on his performances in domestic cricket.

    Reacting to the whole controversy, Snehasis, who is also the secretary of the Cricket Association of Bengal (CAB), said that Saha made a mistake by revealing the details of his communication with the BCCI president as well as the chairman of the selector regarding his place in the Indian team.

    β€œThis is my personal opinion, but what was communicated to him (Saha) by the chief selector or BCCI was private. He probably shouldn’t have gone public with that,” Snehasish told reporters on Sunday as quoted by The Indian Express.

    The CAB official also said that rather than giving interviews he should have played Ranji Trophy and focused on performing for his state team.

    β€œAlso, he could have played the Ranji Trophy. He cited personal reasons for pulling out and we have to respect that. The door is always open for him, whenever he wants to join the squad,” he added.

    Saha’s frustration stemmed from the fact that he was told different things from different individuals. While the chairman of selectors Chetan Sharma said that they were not closing the door on anyone, Dravid had conveyed to him that he would not be considered for selection in the future and even advised him to consider retirement.

    The lack of communication has led to several controversies in the last few months. Just a couple of months back, we saw how Virat Kohli publicly called out Ganguly’s lies after he was unceremoniously sacked from the ODI captaincy.

    Saha’s case was also a result of lack of clear communication from the BCCI. Just like Kohli, he wouldn’t have reacted in the manner he did had he gotten a clear message as to why he was being left out of the team.

    Rather than bashing him for revealing things in public, we should ask ourselves what other choice he was left with.

    Recently, while talking to India Today about marriage and love, the Kirik Party star had expressed that she is too young for marriage. Sharing her thoughts about the idea of marriage, she said, "I don't know what to think about it, because I am too young for it right now. I haven't given it a thought. But having said that, you should be with someone who makes you comfortable."
    Later, talking about love, she added, "For me, love is when you give each other respect, time, and when you feel secure. It is difficult to describe love because it is all about feelings. Love works only when it's both ways, not just one".Β

    The first look of Samantha Ruth Prabhu's much awaited avatar as Shakuntala from the movie Shaakuntalam is finally out, to everyone's excitement. Samantha is looking like a goddess in the poster - demure, calm, and surrounded by animals and birds - just like the perfect depiction of Shakuntala.
    View this post on InstagramWhile Samantha looks perfect as Shakuntala, fans have been anxious about the casting of Dushyant. Actor Dev Mohan, known for #Home and Sufiyum Sujatayum, is playing Dushyant in Shaakuntalam. While it's a huge task to do justice to this iconic role, that too opposite a powerhouse like Samantha, Dev Mohan fits the description of the prince, when it comes to his appearance.Β 
    View this post on InstagramDev has been working on his physique to do justice to the role of prince Dushyant, and he has done it well. He hits the gym regularly, and has also been following a muscle-building diet that has helped him achieve his ripped physique. Take a look.

    Dev mainly focuses on resistance and strength training in the gym, as that is a pre-requisite in terms of building a sculpted physique. That along with quantified nutrition are the pillars of body recomposition, something he clearly has been investing a lot of time and effort in.
