    Salman Khan has a huge fan following and many of his old films are considered cult movies and perhaps no one can deny that.  
    He has given some blockbuster films to Bollywood. However, lately, even though his films make a lot of money at the box-office, the audience has been largely disappointed as there is a lack of logic. 
    Content is king these days and still, we find many illogical films making money. 
    Salman Khan has often played toxic ‘awara aashiq’ roles that were liked back then but make us cringe now. 
    So, here we go-  
    Tere Naam
    The character which Salman Khan is playing in the film has a bad temper and a lot of behavioural issues as well. But, no matter what, remember how every other guy rocked the Radhe haircut?
    Radhe harassed Nirjara in a really terrible way and most girls today would have never fallen for a guy like him. He was extremely toxic and stalked her as if he owned her. 
    Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam
    This is a film that is never going to get old and stars Salman Khan, Aishwarya Rai and Ajay Devgn in the lead role. 
    Now, this film will definitely make you cry if you have ever fallen in true love and that’s how exactly we perceived this one. As a kid we enjoyed watching this film; however, Salman Khan’s character in this film was nothing more than a guy that every girl’s mom warns them about. 
    Hum Apke Hai Koun
    Salman Khan falls in love with Madhuri Dixit in the film. However, fate has other plans when Madhuri’s sister unexpectedly dies and she is expected to marry her brother-in-law. 
    Salman Khan loves her but both of them don’t fight enough to stay together and it’s just disappointing to watch.
    Love
    If you haven’t watched this film, you need to watch this one! The film’s story revolves around how Prithvi and Maggie fall in love and decide to get married but Maggie’s mother, looking at Prithvi's past, says no to him. However, the movie shows some unrealistic things that make us cringe when we watch it in the present times.

    More than ramps and runways, desis take fashion inspiration from films, as fans get their regular dose of style goals from the costumes of characters in the Bollywood movies. 
    The most amazing and chic-looking outfits and styles sported by celebs in the movies are picked up as trends. 
    Talking of trends, most of the 90s fashion trends have made a comeback and movies from that era serve as a moving catalogue for style inspo today.  
    © Tips Music Films
    From leather to denim, the biggest trends from the 90s that we saw our favourite stars wear in the movies when we were kids, are now the hottest runway trends. 

    Why go far when you could just glance back at some of the fashion-forward movies of that time and take some notes from the OG trendsetters? 
    © Tips Industries
    Here are 5 stylish movies from the 90s whose wardrobes are still relevant and can be copied even today:

    1. Kuch Kuch Hota Hai © Dharma Productions
    If it wasn’t clear from Shah Rukh Khan’s chunky necklace, Rahul’s wardrobe in the movie was uber cool and steal-worthy even today. 

    You would be lying if said you didn’t want to raid his sporty outfits that were all about oversized hoodies, baggy jeans, sneakers and neon tees.
    2. Dil  © Maruti International
    Aamir played a rebellious college student in this 90s classic whose style was always on point. 

    Throughout the film, he rocked denims-on-denims, polo T-shirts and even half sweaters that were in line with his young and charming character.     
    3. Daud © Murlimanohar Creations
    Not just Urmila’s extensively stylish wardrobe, Sanjay Dutt’s outfit in the movie also caught attention in Daud. 

    He wore chic outfits featuring sleeveless jackets, baseball hats and leather jackets that were way ahead of their time. 
    4. Biwi No. 1 © Tips Industries
    Salman Khan wore business casuals before it was cool in this cult film which was known for its fashion. 

    He played a rich, young businessman whose wardrobe consisted of casual blazers on solid tees in the office and zip-up sweatshirts when off-duty. 
    5. Dil Hai Ke Manta Nahi © T-Series
    The sweet and caring Raghu in Dil Hai Ke Manta Nahi was no fashion savvy guy, but his style stood out and is still super trendy years later. 

    His signature navy cap, waistcoat over a shirt and bomber jackets are seen as really stylish streetwear today.

    Men often get a bad reputation for being too self-involved, cut-throat and aggressive, especially in the sporting world. 

    We've got Virat Kohli on one end whose endless tenacity and aggression have been well documented, even publicly lauded as well.  
    As long as he gets us the results, right?
    But ever so often, there comes a story where we’re left with a glint of joy in our eyes.
    And this time around it comes all the way from Tokyo. 
    In a surprising turn of events, Mutaz Barshim of Qatar and Gianmarco Tamberi of Italy ended up sharing the gold medal in the men’s high jump event at the Tokyo Olympics 2020. 
    They’ve shared an incredible equation since 2017, and this moment only further cemented their friendship in the annals of history.

    Both Olympians gave it their all throughout the course of the event, finally faltering when the bar was set to 2.39 m. The current Olympic-record height. 
    When track officials asked Barshim and Tamberi if they’d want to decide the tie with a final jump-off, the Olympian from Qatar responded with an enquiry of his own. 
    He felt both their performances warranted a gold medal. And since neither of them were able to successfully vault the final limit set, they decided to split the gold between them. 
    And thus, history was made, with two friends embracing each other. Probably the most public display of camaraderie and love between two elite male athletes. 
    What is better than one gold ? TWO !! #tokyo2020 pic.twitter.com/iMrD9QBoYs
    — معتز برشم ♕Barshim (@mutazbarshim) August 2, 2021 The Qatari Olympian, Mutaz Barshim said, “I know for a fact that for the performance I did, I deserve that gold. He did the same thing, so I know he deserved that gold.”
    He adds, “This is beyond sport. This is the message we deliver to the young generation.”
    Here’s how the internet reacted to this display of wholesome masculinity: 
    The most beautiful moment of #Tokyo2020 : Mutaz Essa Barshim of #Qatar and Gianmarco Tamberi of #Italy elect to share the gold in high jump. Embodying the best of sportsmanship, friendship & competition at the highest level. An elixir for these times. https://t.co/PfbIwv7jle

    Have you ever wondered why your mom spends her weekend making face masks out of besan or why she has been using the same 4 products since she was a young adult?
    Well, that is because they have unlocked the secret to evergreen beauty that is wrinkle-free and makes them look 10 years younger. We have all grown up listening to our mom’s ask us to oil our hair or not go out in the scorching sun but like every other rebellious child, we never listened. While your sisters might have, you never paid attention to all these “girly things”.
    Now, the times have changed and almost every man has a skincare routine where they are trying sunscreens and anti-wrinkle creams to reverse time. 
    But, it's not too late! You can still pick-up some of those beauty secrets and start adding them to your own routine.
    Here Are A Few Of Those Tips:1. Never, Ever, Use Soap On Your Face!__ECOMPRODUCT__41__
    I think this one goes without saying! Any man who still uses soap on their face needs to stop immediately! Body soaps are too harsh for your face and can destroy the natural moisture, so you have to stop doing that before you end up with wrinkly, dry skin.
    2. Yogurt and Besan Is the Answer To Glowing Skin © iStock
    Do you want glowing skin without using 10 different products? Well, it's time to take our mother’s advice and make that homemade mask. Take 2:1 parts yogurt and besan, mix it up and apply on your face for 15-20 mins before you take a shower. It can also be used as a face and body scrub while showering. 

    3. Start Taking Care Of Your Wrinkles Now__ECOMPRODUCT__2287__
    No one worries about wrinkles until they start showing up on our face and then all hell breaks loose! So, why wait? We all know prevention is better than cure which is why you need to start using anti-ageing moisturisers and serums the moment you hit 25!
    4. Always Pay Attention To Your Hands!__ECOMPRODUCT__2288__
    It doesn't matter how many products you use on your face, holistic beauty is what matters. Gone are the days when rough, calloused hands were considered “manly”. It is as important to take care of your hands as it is your face, so, get some hand cream asap!
    5. Moisturize, Moisturize & Moisturize__ECOMPRODUCT__1757__
    We have all seen our moms use like 4 products and still look like a goddess, that is because of one crucial step! Moisturize! It doesn’t matter whether you have dry skin or oily or both, there is a moisturizer for you. This is important to keep your skin hydrated and glowing.
    6. Protect Your Skin From The Sun__ECOMPRODUCT__1186__
    SPF is your new best friend. Everytime you step out in the sun apply sunscreen. It doesn’t matter if the sun isn’t out in its full power or it's overcast, using sunscreen will help protect your skin from the sun and help avoid wrinkles showing up way too early.
    7. Pat Your Skin Dry, Don't Rub © iStock
    This might seem irrelevant but trust me, it is not. When you rub your face with a towel, it takes away all the moisture, leaving it dry and stretched. Pat drying your skin helps keep the moisture in and leaves it firm & hydrated. 

    To Wrap UpThere are many more such tips and tricks that our parents have been carrying around for decades. Most of these tips have been passed down from generations so they have been proven right over the years. So, before you go out and load up on products, maybe take your mom’s advice first!

    Throughout the last three decades, Bollywood superstar Akshay Kumar has thrilled us with his amazing comic timing, his ability to do all kinds of roles in different genres of movies.

    © T-Series
    However, one thing that Akki is known across Bollywood for doing his own stunts regardless of how dangerous they might actually be.

    Like Tom Cruise of Hollywood, Akki too fancies a thrilling experience every now and then, and what better means to get it from than what he already loves doing. Bollywood movies.
    © Paramount Pictures
    © Reliance Entertainment
    Having already been trained in multiple martial arts forms, the actor became a fan favourite during his early years in the industry through his Khiladi movies, where he didn't shy away from doing death-defying stunts.

    Well, at the age of 53, the actor still continues to go out on movie sets with the intention of getting in on the action himself.
    Let's have a look at some of his most dangerous stunts throughout his illustrious career in the Bollywood industry.
    1. Standing On Top Of A Plane In 'Khiladi 420' (2000) © Disney Plus Hotstar
    This photo really says it all!

    Akshay shocked everyone when he decided to do this breathtaking stunt that involved him standing on top of an airplane while it was mid-air, before jumping on a hot balloon. Crazy! Right?
    Even if the plane was flying at a hundred kilometres per hour, the wind factor at that height would actually make it super-uncomfortable to stay in the air for so long.
    Apparently, the actor did it with just safety cords for support and nothing else.
    It only takes a single mistake for things to turn really bad, however, Akki is known to have the nerves of steel and if there was one person you knew who'd get the job done, it was always going to be him.
    This is what he said about the stunt:
    “I had to catch this running plane and climb it. People are scared of sitting inside a plane, and like a stupid man, I am standing on top of a plane. And then I’m supposed to jump from that plane, after it is a thousand feet up in the air, onto a hot air balloon. I did it in one shot.”
    2. Hanging Off A Helicopter In 'Sooryavanshi' (2021) © Instagram
    This too has Akshay Kumar written all over it.

    However, this is 20 years after the Khiladi 420 stunt, meaning that the actor is of course no longer 33-years-old.
    Well, in this stunt for Rohit Shetty's film Sooryavanshi, Akki hung off a helicopter without a harness with Rohit riding a bike ahead of the helicopter.
    Again, anything could go wrong in the stunt as Akshay was not supported by any harness which is a very basic protective gear.
    But it's Akshay, and when he sets his mind to something, we doubt Rohit Shetty can do anything about it.
    From the day acting became my destiny, action has been my lifeline. Pure, unadulterated action in #Sooryavanshi will tell you’ll why it still fires up my core #RohitShetty @karanjohar #KatrinaKaif @RSPicturez @RelianceEnt @dharmamovies #CapeofGoodFilms pic.twitter.com/6UkGA7ivPL

    3. Jumping Into A Ring Of Fire In 'Singh is Bling' (2015) © Grazing Goat Pictures
    Singh is King was a very entertaining movie and came at a time when the onscreen pairing of Akshay Kumar and Katrina Kaif were really on a roll.

    Now, while its sequel did not live up to the first film and tanked at the box office, the movie was still filled with action-packed Akshay Kumar sequences.
    Well, one of the film's stunts saw the actor jump into a ring of fire, and guess what, Akshay crazily did it.
    However, it came at a cost as Akshay reportedly ended up burning his leg during the deadly stunt. Thankfully, he soon recovered and went on to finish the film.  
    4. Jumping Off A Cliff In '8*10 Tasveer' (2009) © SIC Productions
    In Nagesh Kukunoor's 8*10 Tasveer, Akshay once again decided to take things to the next level.

    This time around, the action hero jumped off a cliff from a height of around 160 feet for a scene. That would have freaked out any director, and well, this was what Nagesh had to say about it:
    “This is the first time that I am doing an action film and when you have someone like Akshay, things are easier. There are a couple of breathtaking action sequences in the film. This particular sequence was earlier supposed to be shot in Canada during our first schedule. The scene required Akshay to sprint from a long distance and jump into the water. Though we did some rehearsals with a duplicate, the fall was done by him in one take and it was amazing. Though we all freaked out, Akshay was absolutely cool about it.”
    Later, when Akshay was asked about his dangerous stunt, the actor smilingly replied, “I love doing action scenes and that's about it.”
    Ah, Akshay! You really are so committed to your craft. 
    5. Jumping Elevators In 'Singh Is Kingg' (2008) © Blockbuster Movie Entertainers
    It just feels like Akshay is looking for newer ways to hurt himself.

    While shooting for Singh is Kinng, Akshay had to shoot a couple of action sequences, and well, why really hire a stuntman at all?
    In the film, Akshay's character jumps from one elevator to another, and well, the stuntman already knew that it wasn't his day, yet again.
    It was reported that Akshay jumped the elevators at a height of around 110 feet without the use of a safety net. No harness was used for the stunt either.
    Twinkle really must be praying at home most times or best, she probably isn't aware of all the crazy stunts at all.
    6. Lifting 'The Undertaker' In 'Khiladiyon Ka Khiladi' (1996) © Disney Plus Hotstar
    Okay! First off. It really wasn't the undertaker. This was the dude who played The Undertaker in the film. But that does not change the fact that it was still a very tall, muscular man who can't be lifted just like that.

    Well, Akki did! He really did. And ended up suffering a slipped disc because of it. However, when has that ever slowed Akshay down?
    The movie looked absolutely wonderful with Akshay's action sequences and the memory of him lifting the on-screen Undertaker for Madam Maya (Rakhi) is still a fan favourite.
    7. Swimming With Sharks In 'Blue' (2009) © Voot
    Blue wasn't a movie that we all remember very fondly. I mean, the Chiggy Wiggy song was pretty...cool, huh? But other than that, it really didn't live up to its name.

    However, the movie sure had nice action sequences like all of the other Akki action movies, and the actor clearly didn't disappoint this time either.
    While shooting for an underwater sequence for his film, Akshay actually had to swim with sharks. Now, while we are sure it was all done in a secure environment, the fact remains that who the hell knows what's going to happen when there are sharks involved?
    Anyway, knowing Akki, he wasn't going to back out from it, and he didn't. However, the actor did bang his head on a shipwreck, leading to a head wound. Luckily though, it wasn't anything serious and the actor went on to do many other films after it.

    Let’s say you have a match on an online dating app and you really, really like her.

    Or you’ve finally found the courage to slide into your crush’s DM and it’s definitely not-not freaking you out.
    Would you like to start with the same old “heyyyyyy, how are you?” or a well-prepared, witty pick-up line to show her you’re into her? Yes, it is *the* text that will set the tone for the whole conversation. No pressure. 
    You only get one chance to send that first text. So let me paint another picture for you. 
    Your “HOW ARE YOUs” might not get you an immediate response. But hitting your person-to-be up with a clever pick-up line may level up your game. 
    Bonus: Letting your crush know what’s up via a tasteful pick-up line right from the beginning will only help her respect your honesty. 
    So if you’re all like “yeah, let’s do this” here are the best pick-up lines to send or save for later. Also, they’re new. You’re welcome!

    Olympic debutante Neeraj Chopra stunned everyone when he topped his group in the Javelin throw event at the Tokyo Olympics 2020. This meant that he earned direct qualification for the finals. And we’re excited! 
    Here are 3 reasons why Neeraj Chopra might go all the way and come back home with a gold medal: 
    1. Breaking Limits © Reuters
    To qualify for the finals, all javelin throwers had to cross the qualifying mark of 83.50m. Neeraj obliterated that with his 86.65-meter throw, separating him from the rest of the pack from the get-go. 

    Aged only 23, Neeraj’s consistency belies his years. 
    2. Endorsed By The Top Dog © Reuters
    Kept out of the games this year due to an unfortunate back injury,  Thomas Rohler, winner of the Javelin Throw event from the 2016 Olympics, has hedged his bets on Neeraj Chopra. 

    Rohler says, "Neeraj’s at an age and has the experience to be ready to win an Olympic medal. That’s what I expect. I cross my fingers for him. He’s a good athlete. He’s a good man throwing a javelin. I’d love to see him battling for a medal,”
    He added, "We know that the Olympic Games are special and there’s always surprises to come. There will be surprises from people no one expects anything from and also from those people who are expected to win. We have seen that in the World Championships in 2019. There will be someone who will medal that we don’t expect. I like seeing that Keshorn Walcott is also back. We’ve seen him throwing well in Finland, and he’s someone who is a good competitor.”
    Even the best are anticipating his victory, so there’s got to be something special about Neeraj Chopra. 
    3. Best Of The Best © Reuters
    Germany’s world leader, Johannes Vetter flustered initially before finally saving face with an 85.64m throw in his last attempt. 

    Poland’s Marcin Krukowski mustered up a measly 74.65m throw in comparison. Surprisingly, even Trinidad and Tobago’s Keshorn Walcott had to settle for a 79.33m throw. 
    The Trinidadian javelin thrower was previously the winner at the 2012 London Olympics. At a moment where several big names are underperforming, Neeraj has been an unstoppable force. 
    Additionally, there’s also the India-Pakistan angle at play in the Olympic finals as Pakistan's Arshad Nadeem has also qualified with an effort of 85.16m.
    It's a maiden feat for a Pakistani athlete to enter the Olympic finals in athletics. 
    Do you think our Javelin Master has it in him to win gold? 
    Do tune in to the finals, and show your support for Neeraj Chopra on social media!

    Over the past few days, every inch of the internet was plastered with the surprising news that Simone Biles, the sensational American gymnast had withdrawn from her Olympic events. 
    It was a brave stance to take for someone who’s trained all their life for such an event. When an athlete trains, they’re not just training their bodies, they’re also training their minds and their gut. Simone knew that the twisties she was experiencing could very well be the difference between life, death or a permanent disability.
    We applaud Simone Biles’ for taking the decision to look after her well being rather than succumbing to public pressure.
    Here are 5 things Simone Biles’ Tokyo Olympics Bronze medal teaches men about trusting their gut:
    1. Feel Pressured To Make Decisions They Don’t Want To The prodigious gymnast, Simone, had nothing left to prove to anyone. She’s been a decorated athlete forever, having won a combined total of 32 Olympic and World Championship Medals despite having turned 24 this year. 
    However, when she decided to withdraw from four individual finals due to mental health concerns, she was met with a barrage of insensitivity from the public at large. Apparently, we’re happier seeing an athlete risk their lives for entertainment’s sake. 
    Just like Ms Biles, Men too often feel pressured to make decisions that go against their better judgment.

    2. Even Olympians Can Have Bad Days Even the mighty need time off, Simone Biles’ decision to withdraw from the competition was met with controversy but she took the decision that was best for her physical and mental well being.

    3. No Shame In Taking Care Of Yourself There will always be a section of people who will deride you for every move you make, especially if you’re a public figure. However, they don’t know your personal journey. 
    Simone recently opened up about losing her aunt 2 days prior to the balance beam event during the Tokyo Olympics as a contributor to her decision to withdraw.

    4. It’s Okay To Be SupportedMen have traditionally been pruned to become isolated creatures as they grow up. 
    Borrowing heavily from the popular, but now-debunked ‘Alpha Theory’, men lead lives where they want to be solitary individuals, away from people and emotions as well. In this pursuit we lose out on something that makes us inherently human; support from our loved ones. 
    Simon Biles’ had her coach Cecile Canqueteau-Landi who was her rock during this public ordeal. Landi told her, “You call me, text me if you need anything I'll be here. Whatever that is.'”
    Sometimes, all we need is to know that someone’s out there who’s got our back.

    5. You’ll Bounce BackBad times seem to linger on forever, but if there’s something the decorated Olympian has shown is that if you treat yourself with respect, your mind and body will reward you. 
    Simone Biles’ boldly decided to participate in the Olympic Beam Balance event, and guess what? She walked away with a bronze medal. 
    Men can suffer from a fatalistic view of life, where a single mistake can be seen as the end of life as they know it. No opportunity is lost out on, if we learn from it.

    Boys, Simone Biles has proven that we’re all human, even the toughest, most successful Olympians. And that is probably the most beautiful lesson to be learned from the 2020 Tokyo Olympics.
