    If either of India or Pakistan had two bullets and were locked in a room with one another along with the duo of Hitler and Bin Laden, we know exactly who'd be shot twice. (America loses anyhow.)

    We know India and Pakistan, despite being neighbors, haven't really the best of friends and their relationship isn't going to get any better with China continuing to maintain a weird relationship with Islamabad.

    Well, as if things hadn't really been hard enough for us Indians, with COVID and last year's long India-China stand-off in eastern Ladakh, now Pakistan is trying to fire cheap shots at our nation.

    In what is the latest occurrence of Pakistani drone activity within India, a small hexacopter drone belonging to Pakistan was seen trying to cross over to the Indian border on Friday (July 02).

    As per reports, the surveillance drone was marauding around the Arnia sector in Jammu in the wee mornings before it was spotted by the Indian troops.

    Well, obviously, like all of us, the Indian troops sure had it enough with these 'Nadaan Parindas' trying to sneak into our territory, and they gave it a perfect welcome. By firing right at it.
    "A drone from Pakistan entered the Indian territory at the International Border (IB) in the Arnia area of Jammu district on Friday morning, said the Border Security Force (BSF). After BSF jawans opened fire, they flew back into Pakistani territory," said officials.
    The drone, which was probably on its usual stroll miles into the neighboring country's border, resorted by flying for its life and by now, must be gasping for some breath on the desk of a Pakistani tech official.
    "Due to the firing, it returned immediately. It was meant for carrying out surveillance of the area," the BSF officials said.
    Since the last week, there have been at least five drone activities that have been reported across Jammu.
    On the night of June 27, two drone activities were successfully thwarted by Indian troops near the Ratnuchak-Kaluchak Military Station along the Jammu-Pathankot national highway.
    Last Sunday, there had been two blasts that had been carried out by drones in the technical area of Jammu Air Force Station.

    Well, with the recent showing, it looks like India has had enough of Pakistani drones and their flying bull****.

    Before the concept of threesomes earned its notorious reputation in the porn industry, it was regarded as one of the many ways a couple would often explore to add some spice in their relationship. Especially in the bedroom. 
    While involving a third party in such private matters doesn’t seem all too conventional, I would be lying if I didn’t admit to just how thrilling the experience can be for some experimenting adults.
    And there is no reason why it still can’t be a guaranteed way to turn up the heat!

    Unlike in the movies, where a threesome “just happens” after a drunken night or simply when a third person walks in on two people bumping uglies, the dynamics of a threesome IRL are a tad bit different and complicated even more so when you’re thinking of going for it as a couple. 

    Several factors from comfort to insecurity kick in and if not handled with care, the act can go from an erotic drama to a tragedy very fast. 
    Which is why, when deciding to have a threesome as a couple, setting up these rules of engagement is as important as using protection:
    1) Don’t Pick Someone You Know © Eros International
    DO NOT PICK SOMEONE YOU KNOW as your third musketeer in this sexual endeavour, for the simple reason of not complicating things once outside the bedroom. 

    It is best to try and engage with someone you both are comfortable with and one who you’re not likely to bump into everyday to exchange awkward/lingering greetings with. 
    2) Decide What Is Off-limits © Trigger Street Productions
    Some couples, while engaging in a threesome, keep certain acts off-limits for the third person joining in. Some may prohibit kissing on the lips, others may not allow penetrative ***, depending on what is it they are not comfortable their partner engaging in. 

    3) Have A Safe Word © iStock
    Most couples who are already aware of the practice of having a safe word in bed, do so while experimenting with something new and intense. And by the nature of the act, a threesome makes the cut. 

    Pick a word you both can say out loud anytime the threesome becomes too overwhelming, intense or simply uncomfortable. It can be your signal to pull the plug on the entire operation. 
    4) Stay Protected © iStock
    Keeping in mind the present state of the coronavirus scare in the country and the fact that your party of three wouldn’t want to be gate-crashed by an unannounced pregnancy, using protection in bed and choosing someone with a clean bill of health should be non-negotiable!

    5) ALWAYS Play By The Rules © Dharma Productions
    One of the most important yet overlooked ground rules between couples during a threesome is to not abide by the rules they set for themselves. 

    Yes, a threesome can be all-consuming and make you want to look past a few rules here and there, but jeopardising a real relationship for those seven minutes in heaven will not be worth it. 
    Make it a point to stick to the rules you two set and keep any other temptation to stray during the act, at bay.

    Rahul Dravid’s appointment as the head coach for the Sri Lanka tour brought a huge smile on the faces of Indian cricket fans. 
    For a long time, Dravid's fans and Indian cricket fans alike had been demanding the former Indian skipper be given charge of the national team on a permanent basis.
    With the coronavirus pandemic disturbing the Future Tour Programme in the last year-and-a-half, the BCCI decided to send its second-string side on a limited-overs tour to the island nation which opened a window for Dravid to coach the side.
    Say hello to #TeamIndia's captain & coach for the Sri Lanka tour 🤜🤛

    We are excited. Are you? #SLvIND pic.twitter.com/OnNMzRX4ZB
    — BCCI (@BCCI) June 27, 2021
    While it’s too early to look into the whole dynamics, Dravid’s appointment was more out of necessity than anything else but many believe it’s a step taken in the right direction and he will be definitely in contention whenever the team decides to look beyond Ravi Shastri going forward.
    Meanwhile, former India all-rounder Reetinder Sodhi says it’s hard to believe that a player of Dravid’s calibre can be a temporary option. According to him, it’s a clear indication that the pitch is being laid for the batting legend to take over from Shastri, and the only question is how soon or late will it be?

    "First of all, we have to acknowledge that Ravi Shastri has done a great job as coach. And yes, his contract is coming to an end. But let's think about it… a temporary arrangement and that too Rahul Dravid? I think it's virtually impossible. If he is going to Sri Lanka as the head coach, somewhere it's a clear indication that he is in line. If there's anyone that can replace Ravi Shastri as coach, that person is Rahul Dravid," Sodhi told India News Sports.

    What does the #SLvIND limited-overs series mean for everyone involved with the Indian team?

    "I'm sure he must have been asked about it. Had he wanted to remain director of cricket or NCA head, he could have easily said no. He is a family man; he could have stayed in Bengaluru. But he has taken the responsibility. He is going and wants the team to do well. I feel that if there is a replacement, Dravid is very much in line. Such a legendary player can never be a temporary option," he added.

    While it’s his first involvement as a head coach of the senior men’s team, Dravid was extremely successful with the Under-19 and India A sides. 

    Currently, as the director of the National Cricket Academy, Dravid has played a key role in shaping the careers of many up-and-coming talents like Shubman Gill, Prithvi Shaw, among others.

    Dravid is often credited with creating a massive pool of talent at the domestic level and was one of the reasons why India could think of playing two series in different parts of the world simultaneously, without compromising on the performance.
    Like billions of fans who grew up watching Dravid’s marathon knocks, we are also hoping that the batting maestro continues his marathon run in Indian cricket and we could see him become the permanent head coach sooner rather than later and help the team scale new heights.

    It still feels like yesterday when the likes of Lunchbox and Angrezi Medium were releasing and one would casually watch Irrfan Khan’s interview on TV, where he’d be sharing an anecdote from his life or talking about his next project. A man who was not just an actor but a catalyst of motivation and a powerhouse of talent, Irrfan Khan has left us with more than just his movies. Infact, he is a star who probably loved his art and the people who loved him so much that perhaps one would call it a divine intervention that an old unreleased movie of his is finally going to premiere soon.

    Irrfan’s Dubai Return was made in 2005 and premiered at the International Indian Film Festival. Back in the day, even after garnering some rave critical reviews at the festival, the film unfortunately couldn’t sail through till theatre screens. The movie is based on a story by Vinay Chaudhary and shows Irrfan as a small-time gangster named Aftab Angrez. The movie will be premiering at the Bandra Film Festival this year and also stars veteran actress Waheeda Rehman.

    His last movie outing on the big screen was Homi Adjania’s Angrezi Medium and besides Dubai Return, another unreleased movie titled the song of the scorpions will also be releasing later this year. While he has mortally left this world, his art continues to keep his memories alive in all our hearts. This one is going to be an emotional ride for all his fans.

    “Love is whatever you can still betray. Betrayal can only happen if you love.” – John le Carre

    Taapsee Pannu, Vikrant Massey, and Harshvardhan Rane’s Haseen Dillruba is a murder mystery wrapped in the elements of love and betrayal. It reminds me of Kangana Ranaut’s Judgementall Hai Kya that had so many layers within the movie that somewhere, it wavered from the original storyline.

    The story is being told from the perspective of Dinesh Pandit, whom you will never get to meet in the movie. He is a fiction writer who writes crime thrillers and it’s his influence that drives all the characters to do certain things that they do in the movie. 
    It’s Taapsee Pannu’s character Rani Kashyap that introduces him to Vikrant Massey’s character Rishab Saxena.
    © Netflix
    In the first one hour, the film has so much to tell the viewer. 

    Taapsee has lost her husband (do not worry, this is not a spoiler). The director Vinil Mathew and writer Kanika Dhillon have shown her as a widow, a murder, an adulteress, and a betrayer, a lover in just one hour of the movie.
    © Netflix
    It’s thanks to Taapsee’s superb acting skills that we manage to absorb so much information in the very beginning itself. 

    If you have seen A Death In The Gunj, you will find the same spark in Vikrant’s character Rishi and there are scenes where he just takes the cake, and you are left spellbound by his expressions. 
    © Netflix
    Harshvardhan Rane, who plays the role of Neel, gets a shift in the narrative, but his character on paper didn’t have the same depth as that of Rani and Rishi. 

    They all put their best foot forward but it’s the script that pulls them back.
    © Netflix
    It’s engaging at some points and does serve humour on your platter but it’s the far-fetched climax and ending that leaves you disappointed because it’s the climax that can either make or break the film.

    We won’t give you spoilers as it’s for you to judge the movie. 
    The narrative might be focused on the whole idea of love and betrayal and what it leads to, but it is problematic, however, you do get to witness the toxicity in relationships. 
    There is a point in a relationship when you should walk out rather than let the toxicity consume you completely. I genuinely wish that the aspect was dealt with a little more carefully in the movie.
    © Netflix
    The viewer in me wanted it to watch the end with a little more meaning, as the movie did have the scope to be better than how it is right now.

    Having said all of this, I wouldn’t take away the fact it did have patches that kept me hooked and entertained. For me, it’s the performances of the star cast that is the real steal deal, even though the script lacked a perfect ending, a strong middle, and a gripping beginning. 
    Ashish Verma, Aditya Srivastava, Yamini Das, and Daya Shankar Pandey also give us their best.
    © Netflix
    In a nutshell, Haseen Dillruba is a one-time watch and it has its elements but the unrealistic and far-fetched approach to the climax ruins it all.

    Megastar Shah Rukh Khan is 55-years-old and we have to agree that he doesn’t look his age at all. 

    Recently, his fans were extremely excited to see their beloved star in a new advertisement that dropped online. The music video is an endorsement for a hair color brand and Shah Rukh Khan can be seen sporting a long mane. His hair is tied up in a ponytail and he looks stunning.
    In the video, he can be seen wearing a white striped shirt with a black waistcoat and trousers and is seen saying,  “So, what do we have here? It’s so se... Yeh nahi keh sakte. Hmmm, I know! Instead kehte hai, ‘it’s so Streaxy’ (I can’t say this. Instead, let me say, ‘it’s so Streaxy’).”
    And then he starts crooning a song.

    Recently, Shah Rukh Khan completed 29 years in Bollywood. In an interview, when asked about the release of his next film, he said,  “Right now with the situation I think it’s prudent to make film release schedules with a bit of patience.” 

    On the work front, Shah Rukh Khan will be next seen in Siddharth Anand’s next movie titled Pathan. He has already started shooting for the film and was last seen in Zero, which didn’t do well at box office.

    Karan Johar is one of the most well-known filmmakers of Bollywood. He enjoys a bigger star status than any B-town celebrity. KJo has not only excelled in the Indian Cinema, but he is also a style maven. So, it won't be wrong to call him an all-rounder.

    In a recent interview, Karan, who had produced Kapoor & Sons, said that he tried to 'sabotage' Alia's casting in the movie. The filmmaker had a conversation with her before the shooting and said she doesn't need to be a part of all the Dharma movies.

    Kapoor & Sons is a story about estranged brothers who are compelled to return to their home after their grandfather suffers a cardiac arrest. The movie takes one through an emotional ride and talks in detail about a middle-class family.

    Reality can often feel limiting when it comes to the art of storytelling. Bending to pre-existing rules when trying to challenge them can leave viewers as well as the creators confused. However, some shows manage to tread that fine line well while discussing themes of mental health, existentialism and surrealism. 
    Here are 5 Thought Provoking Netflix Series You Should Watch To Open The Horizons Of Your Mind:
    1. Bojack Horseman - Chock filled with absurd plotlines and anthropomorphic characters, Bojack Horseman defiantly rewrote the rules regarding conversations around mental health. The titular character, Bojack is a ‘has been’ celebrity from the 90s, struggling with a host of mental issues amplified by his present irrelevance. As he goes about navigating the ins, outs and abouts of a fictional take on Hollywood, we the audience gain access to each character’s vulnerabilities. What this show does exceptionally well is the way it removes the shroud of mystique around an individual’s mental health struggles regardless of their circumstances in life. Because there are layers to it, we’re often unable to navigate it successfully. Bojack Horseman is a show that makes us connect with a depressed talking horse, a highstrung Persian cat, as well as an accidental millennial genius among its myriad of eclectic characters with increasingly strange lives. Inviting us to extend that courtesy to ourselves as well. 

    2. The Mind, Explained - VOX has long been popular for its ‘Explained’ series where they go about breaking down popular topics of conversations like Cults, Music, War On Drugs etc. However with ‘The Mind, Explained’, they delve deeper  into subjects that help you learn more about the organ running every human, our brains. It’s a limited series with no more than 5 episodes, each running an average length of 20 minutes. Their episodes cover Memory, Dreams, Anxiety, Mindfulness and Psychedelics; a range of topics for you to get better acquainted with your brain. 

    3. Big Mouth - My initial viewing of this show made for an uncomfortable experience as the visuals can at times be a little too in your face. However, over repeated viewings I realized that Big Mouth is a show that truthfully encapsulates the entire experience of growing up as a teenager. Rough, grisly, amusing at times, and entirely chaotic.  An instance that stands out for me is when Andrew, our protagonist, has to deal with Jessi’s anxiety and depression. In the show, these mental ailments are made relatable and humorous by giving them an animal avatar. Depression becomes the depression kitty, whereas Tito the anxiety mosquito shows how anxiety can become an all consuming affair for teenagers. I wish Big Mouth was a show that I had during my teenage years. 

    4. Midnight Gospel - Brought to you by the creators of the cult classic, Adventure Time, Midnight Gospel is a zany, existential animated comedy, which follows our protagonist’s journey through different realms of realities, with each episode an attempt at discussing existential topics such as life, death, mysticism, mental health and beyond. Juxtaposing actual podcast recordings with surreal and fantastical visuals, Midnight Gospel’s protagonist, Clancy, manages to  take your mind on an enthralling ride. 

    5. Naruto - A controversial choice, but an apt one nonetheless. Naruto is wildly popular for satiating Anime fans with his never die attitude, as well as defeating an ever populated rogues gallery of foes. However, what separates Naruto from most other anime is that it inspires and teaches in equal measure thanks to its intricate plot and character development. Our titular character is born with a Nine Tails Beast that haunts his life and shuns people away from him. Similar to how a disorder or a mental ailment can leave an individual’s life riddled with chaos, Naruto too was dealt a difficult hand. However, growing beyond merely controlling the Nine Tails, our protagonist finds ways to harness its power and forge an alliance with it to help nurture his life. Mental illnesses don’t always spell doom. Your personal demons don’t always need to be defeated, sometimes all it requires is sustained efforts at channeling that energy into something better. 

    So if you’re bored this weekend and want to start a new commitment on Netflix, try these shows! They’ll definitely help you gain a better understanding!

    A doctor was forced to sell his car after finding out that his 7-year-old son spent £1,300 (Rs 1.33 Lakh) in microtransactions. The son had spent the money on Dragons: Rise of Berk, which required in-game purchases for training mythical monsters. 
    The game is a spin-off app from the How to Train Your Dragon movie franchise that lets players discover and train over 600 dragons.

    According to the Daily Mail , Muhammad Ashaz, from Colwyn Bay, North Wales, initially thought he was scammed after he found the bill from Apple iTunes. However, after discovering 29 email receipts for transactions ranging from £1.99 to £99.99 for the game, he came to the conclusion his son used his credit card linked with the App Store to make these purchases. In order to foot the bill, Ashaz was forced to sell his Toyota Aygo.

    Muhammad was shocked to find that a free game could allow players as young as his son to make unlimited purchases without any warnings. He felt Apple 'took advantage' of a young child after only playing the game for an hour. He was also unaware that the game offers unlimited in-app purchases for up to £109.  

    Muhammad has been given a £207 refund from Apple but he still has to pay the rest of the bill. 
    “I said to customer services, ‘Well done, you’ve ripped me off, you have succeeded in ripping my child off’.” He also mentioned that the purchase made by his son “almost maxed out” his credit card. Muhammad argues that a free game meant for children should never allow unlimited transactions of such a high amount.

    It is worthy to point out that the App Store does implement password and FaceID protections before any purchase is made on the platform. Muhammad said that his son may have seen his password once before and remembered it.  

    Apple has also introduced other preventive measures such as disabling the ability to make purchases via the ‘Screen Time’ app and Family Sharing settings. Children within the same family can request the family group owner to authorise or decline purchase requests as well.  
    It is currently unknown how Muhammad’s son was able to bypass the several preventive measures already in place for iOS and iPad devices.
