    The Indian Premier League (IPL) is set to begin in a few months time and this season is going to be a bigger one as two new franchises are set to join the fray in a bid to fight for the trophy. Lucknow Super Giants and Ahmedabad are the two new teams set to make their debut in the 15th edition of IPL. 
    All the 10 franchises have already named their retention list ahead of the mega auction that is set to be held in Bengaluru on February 12 and 13. 
    Virat Kohli, who captained Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) for nine years, had relinquished the skipper’s role in the IPL after stepping down as captain of the Indian team in the T20I format. 
    You’ve been an inspiration and a leader par excellence. Thank you for taking Indian cricket forward like only you could have.

    Thank you for the memories, King! You’ll always be our Captain Kohli. #PlayBold #TeamIndia #ViratKohli pic.twitter.com/M9n9Dl3iCq

    RCB retained their former skipper but they would want to rope in a leader at the mega auction in a few weeks time. Chennai Super Kings will be captained by MS Dhoni but it might be his last season and the team management would be looking to pick his potential successor so that he gets to rub shoulders with Dhoni before taking the franchise forward from next season onwards.
    Proven leaders in the league like David Warner, Shreyas Iyer and Eoin Morgan will be up for grabs as all the 10 IPL teams will fight it out at the auction table to get the best possible squad for their franchise. 
    Mumbai Indians, Delhi Capitals, Rajasthan Royals, Lucknow Super Giants and Ahmedabad have announced their captains ahead of the IPL mega auction but other teams are still in search of a leader and with this being a mega auction, we could see some crazy bids being made at the auction table.

    Here are the teams who will be on a lookout for a potential captain at the upcoming mega auction.
    Royal Challengers Bangalore View this post on Instagram
    With Kohli stepping down as the captain of the RCB franchise, the team will be looking to hire a player who can take them forward in the league. Opening batter David Warner, who has won an IPL title with SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH) in the past, and young Shreyas Iyer who led Delhi Capitals to the final in the 13th edition could be on the minds of RCB as they prepare strategies for the mega auction. 
    It was Warner’s SRH who denied Kohli his first IPL title in 2016 as the defeated RCB in the final by eight runs in a high-scoring summit clash. If RCB gets Warner, we might get to see Warner and Kohli open the batting for their side and that promises to be an extraordinary combination.
    Chennai Super Kings View this post on Instagram
    CSK’s talismanic skipper MS Dhoni had cleared the air over his ability for the 15th edition of the IPL. The former India skipper also mentioned that he wishes to play his final IPL game at Chepauk.
    Dhoni’s last season with the bat wasn’t a good one and he himself knows that the upcoming season could be his last as a CSK player. The Chennai-based franchise might go shopping for a youngster like Shreyas Iyer who has the leadership qualities and age on his side. To top it all, he will be groomed by one of the most successful captains in Indian cricket’s history MS Dhoni.

    SRH retained Kane Williamson, who was named captain after they sacked David Warner as their leader, ahead of the mega auction. However, Williamson’s own performances were below par as he scored just 266 runs in 10 matches. 
    The team finished at the bottom of the points table after just three wins from 14 matches. They would be looking for an alternate for Williamson if the Kiwi star’s own performance dip during the course of the tournament.

    KL Rahul left Punjab Kings after leading the side for two seasons without tasting any success. Under his leadership, Punjab Kings twice failed to reach the playoffs in the league. Rahul has been appointed as the captain of the new franchise, Lucknow Super Giants and that leaves Punjab Kings without a leader. 
    The Punjab-based franchise have the biggest purse among all the 10 teams for the upcoming mega auction and they are expected to go all out for a player whom they feel could lead their side to their maiden IPL title.

    Eoin Morgan struggled with the bat throughout the last IPL season but he did manage to take KKR to the playoffs. However, the Kolkata-based franchise decided against retaining him ahead of the mega auction. 
    KKR would be looking to get the services of a leader who can go on to help the team lift the trophy for the third time in their history.

    Salman Khan just shared a picture on Instagram that went viral because of his 'gigantic' traps and well-developed upper back. Before we get into details, take a look at the post here.

    Traps are those underrated muscles that don't get as much footage as biceps or abs, but are extremely important when it comes to overall strength, as well as a muscular appearance. Trapezius muscles, commonly called 'Traps', are one of the most important muscles when it comes to your upper back/shoulders.

    Over the last few months, the off-field controversies have hogged more limelight compared to Team India’s on-field performances.
    A lot has been written about how the alleged fallout between Virat Kohli and the BCCI president Sourav Ganguly led to his unceremonious departure from Team India’s leadership positions.

    Not just the fans, even cricket experts have varied opinions on the matter, with some blaming Kohli and others questioning Ganguly and other BCCI dignitaries.

    This whole saga has taken over Indian cricket so much so that no cricket conversation is deemed complete unless the experts address this issue.
    © Reuters
    Sharing his views on this whole issue, cricketer-turned-politician Gautam Gambhir described it as an “internal battle” between two former skippers of Indian cricket team Kohli and Ganguly.

    The southpaw said it wasn’t that big of an issue as portrayed by the media. He opined that this matter could’ve been easily solved internally through mutual discussions.

    “I think this could’ve been sorted behind closed doors as well. It was an internal battle. It was a great TRP for a lot of news channels but that’s fine. If you go to the depth of it, the matter can easily be solved. It’s not that big of an issue,” said Gambhir while speaking on Times Now.

    After the BCCI announced its decision to relieve Kohli to ODI captaincy, the fans were already upset. His  fans began criticising the BCCI boss and the selectors for dishing out an unfair treatment to the modern-day legend.

    However, their anger reached the boiling point after the 33-year-old cricketer publicly contradicted the BCCI chief during an explosive press conference and they started accusing ‘Prince of Kolkata’ of serving lies to the public.

    Responding to this ODI captaincy issue, Gambhir said he wasn’t surprised with the BCCI’s decision. In fact, the day Kohli decided to step down from the T20I role, he should’ve known that he would have to let go of ODI captaincy as well, as the selectors wouldn’t agree to two white-ball skippers.
    © Reuters
    As far as his Test captaincy was concerned, Gambhir described it as his “personal decision” and said that he would have loved to see him leading the red-ball side for a little bit longer.

    “Honestly, I don't see any controversy which was created. Talking about captaincy, I think Virat should have continued as red-ball captain. But for white-ball captaincy, once he decided to let go of T20I captaincy, he had to let go of ODI captaincy as well. The BCCI and the selectors were right from the white-ball point of view. But it was Virat's personal decision to step down from Test captaincy, which he should have continued,” he elaborated.
    © Reuters
    The moment we start thinking that this controversy is over, a new development pops up. Ganguly is once again in headlines after a video went viral on social networking sites where two journalists from Aaj Tak could be seen berating him forcefully attending the selection meetings and interfering in Team India’s selection matters.

    Gambhir’s statement confirms that the fallout between Kohli and Ganguly wasn’t a work of fiction. It would have been better had both these strong-headed individuals shown some maturity and solved their differences internally.

    More than a decade ago, Ranveer Singh stepped into the industry and made his smashing debut with Band Baaja Baaraat. No one would have ever imagined that he would go on to establish himself as one of the most successful and bankable actors of Bollywood.
    View this post on InstagramCurrently, Ranveer is soaking in praises for his act as Kapil Dev in Kabir Khan’s 83. In a recent interview with Hello Magazine, he said, “In the 10 years of my career,I didn't receive this degree of love and praise as I did for 83, especially from critics. It's reactions like these that motivate me to keep exploring and working harder. I'm hungrier than ever before.”
    View this post on InstagramRanveer's success as a celebrity lies in his versatility and he has given us praiseworthy performances in movies like Lootera, Goliyon Ki Rasleela Ram-Leela, Bajirao Mastani, Dil Dhadakne Do, Padmaavat, Simmba, and Gully Boy.  
    Sharing how he learnt about his acting process all along the way, he said, “My wife (Deepika Padukone) thinks I am a different person every six months. When I started, I thought I knew all about acting, but as time progressed, I realised how far from the truth that was. The craft has no limits, and all I have are tools to work with effectively.”
    Here’s his full interview with Hello Magazine:

    — Ranveerians Worldwide (@RanveeriansFC) February 1, 2022 In a recent interview, Deepika revealed how Ranveer is secure as an actor and he has always supported her. She added that he never had any issues with her earning more than him. She also stated it’s his personality trait that he doesn’t steal the spotlight and let his colleagues lead the show. 
    Talking about his ideology, he said, “The way I function surprises people. I am not only a secure actor but a secure person overall. I have been victim to the one-upmanship game actors play, trying to upstage others, wanting the entire show to revolve around them and treating others with disrespect. I’ve experienced this first hand, and I promised myself I would never do this to another. It’s a very negative approach towards the craft. I can’t bear it. You are corrupting the medium by adopting such a hurtful approach, and it’s been my endeavour to never be that person.”
    View this post on InstagramHe went on to add, “I strive to be an artist who treats his art and fellow actors with the utmost respect and sincerity, I'm an entertainer, and my job is to entertain the audience to the best of my abilities. If they can laugh and cry along with me on screen, that's my biggest validation." 
    We totally respect his approach and this is why he is one of the top choices for all the directors to work with.

    Salman Khan, last year, was trolled for starring opposite Disha Patani in Radhe: Your Most Wanted Bhai despite a huge age difference between them. Many believe that this negative publicity affected the film badly. However, this year too, several upcoming films will see leading men pairing up with much younger heroines. Well, we’re not at all surprised as Bollywood is a repeat offender when it comes to normalizing huge age differences in films.
    From Tiku Weds Sheru to Prithviraj, let's take a look at the list of upcoming Bollywood films with a huge age difference between the lead pair:
    Tiku Weds Sheru (Nawazuddin Siddiqui & Avneet Kaur) View this post on Instagram
    Age Difference: 27 years
    Produced by Kangana Ranaut, the film features Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Avneet Kaur in the lead roles. There is an age gap of nearly three-decade between them. While Nawazuddin is 47 years old, Avneet is 20 years old and is making her Bollywood debut as a protagonist with the film. Earlier, she was seen playing the role of Rani Mukerji's niece in the 2014 hit Mardaani. Coming back to Tiku Weds Sheru, the quirky comedy is directed by Sabir Khan.  
    Prithviraj (Akshay Kumar & Manushi Chillar) View this post on Instagram
    Age Difference: 30 Years
    Produced by Yash Raj Films and directed by Chandraprakash Dwivedi, Prithviraj marks the acting debut of Miss World 2017 Manushi Chillar opposite Akshay Kumar. While Akshay is 54 years old, Manushi is 24, only five years elder than the Bollywood superstar's son Aarav. Well, that sounds a little creepy. 
    Ek Villain Returns (John Abraham & Disha Patani) View this post on Instagram
    Age Difference: 20 Years
    After romancing Salman in Radhe, Disha Patani is working with John Abraham in Ek Villain Returns. In the sequel to Ek Villain, the 29-year-old actress will be seen romancing John whose age is 49. Directed by Mohit Suri, Ek Villain Returns also stars Arjun Kapoor and Tara Sutaria and is among the most-awaited films. 
    Bachchan Pandey (Akshay Kumar & Kriti Sanon) View this post on Instagram
    Age Difference: 23 Years
    Not only Prithviraj, Akshay Kumar's Bachchan Pandey too will see a younger actress opposite him. Kriti Sanon, 31, is playing the female lead in the film directed by Farhad Samji and produced by Sajid Nadiadwala. This is not the first time when Akshay & Kriti have teamed up onscreen. Earlier, they also worked together in Housefull 4 which was released in 2019.

    Touted as one of the most iconic films of all time, the 1972 film The Godfather, based on the Mario Puzo novel of the same name has inspired a hell lot of films and TV shows around the world. 
    In India itself, we have had many mainstream films taking inspiration from the Marlon Brando and Al Pacino starrer.

    Now, a new series will take us behind the scenes of how that iconic film was conceived, pitched and eventually made by Academy Award winning producer Albert S. Ruddy. 

    Titled The Offer, referring to The Godfather’s iconic dialogue, “I'm gonna make him an offer he can't refuse”, the series features Miles Teller of Whiplash fame in the lead role of Albert S Ruddy. 
    The series also features Dan Fogler as Francis Ford Coppola, the director of The Godfather.

    Other actors in the show include Matthew Goode as Robert Evans, Juno Temple as Bettye McCartt, Giovanni Ribisi as Joe Colombo, Burn Gorman as Charles Bluhdorn, Patrick Gallo as Mario Puzo and Colin Hanks as Barry Lapidus. 

    The teaser trailer shows how Teller’s Albert faced difficulties in greelighting The Godfather from all quarters. Be it the studio, the people around him and even the Italian mafia of the time. 
    And the teaser trailer ends with the iconic The Godfather theme tune. And to be honest, it makes me want to watch the series right now.

    Take a look at the teaser trailer of The Offer below: 


    Among other cast members, Anthony Ippolito plays Al Pacino and Justin Chambers of Grey's Anatomy fame plays Marlon Brando. 
    The short synopsis of the film reads, “The Offer is based on Oscar®-winning producer Albert S. Ruddy’s extraordinary, never-revealed experiences of making The Godfather.” 
    The limited series will start streaming from April 28, 2022, on OTT platform Paramount+.

    Unfortunately, for the Indian fans of The Godfather films, Paramount+ is not yet officially available in India. Let’s just hope we get to see the series officially via other streaming platforms available in India if Paramount+ isn’t made available in the country by April.
