    The riots of 1984 that took place after the assassination of PM Indira Gandhi became one of the most highlighted events in the history of India. The memories of wounds of the riots and mass killings of the Sikh population in 1984 are still very much fresh in the minds of people and making a series on the show can be a tricky call. The new upcoming series Grahan from Disney+ Hotstar will be basing its premise on the possible reason behind the massacre.
    The series is inspired by the bestselling novel Chaurasi, written by Satya Vyas.
    It tells the story of a police officer, who has been made a part of Special Investigation Teams to investigate cold cases from the riots in Bokaro. Things take an ugly turn when she realizes that her father has to do something with the riots and has some sort of involvement in igniting the massacre. The show stars Zoya Hussain and Pavan Malhotra as central characters. It also features Anshuman Pushkar, Wamiqa Gabbi, Teekam Joshi, and Sahidur Rahman in other pivotal roles.
    Here’s the trailer:


    About the show, Malhotra had earlier said, "It’s an innocent love story, a complex web of emotions, but most importantly Grahan is the search for the truth."
    A topic as sensitive as this was anyway a risky decision and it has now turned into a living nightmare for the makers as the show has fallen into trouble for hurting the religious sentiments. Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC) president Bibi Jagir Kaur on Monday demanded an immediate ban on Grahan.

    Addressing the press conference here on Monday, Kaur said, “A Sikh character has been portrayed in an objectionable manner in a web series called ‘Grahan’ based on the 1984 Sikh genocide. In the web series, the charge of Sikh genocide is being leveled against a Sikh character which is highly condemnable and fabricated.”
    “A legal notice has been sent by a witness of the genocide Nirpreet Kaur to Ajay G Rai, producer of ‘Grahan’ web series and Sunil Ryan, head and president of Disney+Hotstar. The SGPC also supports this notice,” she said.
    SGPC president Kaur said, “Through this web series, work is being done to rub salt on the wounds of Sikhs which would hurt the Sikh sentiments. Such films also hurt the communal harmony in society. Therefore, the government should enact strict Information Technology (IT) rules to curb such sensitive and objectionable trends.”
    Not just this, we woke up to people trending #BanGrahanWebSeries on Twitter. People have been bashing the makers for playing with their emotions and said the facts are twisted for TRPs. They are calling it propaganda against the Sikh Community.

    New Zealand were in the ascendancy when the play began on the fifth day of the World Test Championship final in Southampton. Having been bowled out for 217 in their first innings, Virat Kohli and Co. were on the backfoot and needed a spirited performance to pull things back. 
    Mohammed Shami and Ishant Sharma did the magic with the ball, picking up three crucial wickets in the first session but it was Virat Kohli’s captaincy masterclass that paved the way for India’s comeback.

    His bowling and fielding changes were spot on and in Nasser Hussain’s words he made “right changes at the right time” and Team India reaped its benefits.

    VVS Laxman, one of the most respected batsmen to have played the game, was impressed in particular with the way he made small adjustments in the field and placed Shubman Gill at silly mid-off, knowing that Ross Taylor likes to drive in the air.

    Kohli’s move paid dividends almost immediately when Gill took a blinder to send Taylor packing as New Zealand lost their first wicket of the day.

    "A lot of credit for Ross Taylor’s wicket should be given to Virat Kohli. Ross Taylor has the tendency to play in the air when he plays the drives and Shubman Gill was stationed there, just parallel to the crease, silly mid-off position and that's the reason why he caught that blinder. Fantastic captaincy, a fantastic display of fast bowling," Laxman said during the Lunch show on Star Sports.

    "It took a while to take the wicket of Ross Taylor but right from the word go the intensity of the Indian fast bowlers, what we were expecting from Indian fast bowlers, that was to be seen. Fantastic display of fast bowling, control aggression and a lot of discipline and also hats off to Virat Kohli," Laxman added.
    Former England captain Nasser Hussain lauded how Kohli didn’t take the foot off the paddle in the morning session and kept pushing for wickets. Ishant Sharma, who is known for bowling well to the left-handers, was given the ball against Henry Nicholls and he got him caught in the slip cordon.
    As many as 10 wickets fell in the day, with Mohammad Shami taking four of them

    "I thought Virat Kohli had a (good) day as well. Every bowling change he made (was a good one). To the left-hander Nicholls, we know Ishant bowls well, bowl straight on. He kept Shami on even though he bowled six or seven overs in that session. So, pretty much spot on from India throughout the session. Catching, captaincy, and bowling," Hussain said.
    "Sometimes, Virat Kohli does certain things, I call him the tinker man. But today morning, he did things with a lot of purpose. The changes he made were absolutely spot-on. Ishant to the left-handers. And like VVS Laxman said, there was no left-hander for Ashwin. 10 minutes to go to Lunch. BJ Watling in the middle, and he kept Shami on. And immediately Shami gets the wicket. He made right changes at the right time," he added.

    Having picked three wickets in the morning session, India brought themselves back in the game nicely and alongwith the bowlers Kohli also received a huge credit for that, with fans and experts all taking to social media to praise his clever captaincy while under pressure.
