    Most kids detest Math in school and the reason is that they find it extremely tough and one of the most perplexing subjects. A lot of things taught in math class go above our heads like theorems, formulas and even the instruments in our geometry box.

    Remember the contents of the geometry box? Protector, compass and there were some other alien objects that we almost never used in our entire school life. For example, those triangular scales and divider.

    We had almost forgotten about the divider (since we never felt the need for it in our adult life) until we were reminded of it by a Twitter user.

    A picture was shared on Twitter where someone had asked what it is actually used for and the netizens, probably still clueless about its utility, came up with funny responses.

    From using it to threaten the bullies to carve your name on the desk, Twitter users gave hilarious but wrong answers for why a divider was used.

    This is a divider. Earlier used by British during their rule and nowadays again getting popularity since 2014.

    To threaten the teacher into letting you go to the washroom between the test

    These answers sound like they have been written by some pro backbenchers. That being said these sure are some creative uses of the pointy instruments, one of two of which we all have used a divider for.

    For those who are now curious about the real function of the tool, there were some super smart people who did give the right answers on the thread. A user wrote, “This is used to measure the length between two points accurately.” Another wrote, “I remember my teachers asking me to measure the line segments using the divider.”

    The OP was clearly amazed by the range of comments they got on their post. They replied, “the education system is failing fr wtf are these comments” 

    Whether or not they got the answer to their question, it did take us all back to one of the dreaded Math classes from when we were in school.

    Owing to the deadly second wave of Covid-19, the last three months were definitely a testing time for citizens of the country, especially the ones in New Delhi where there was an acute shortage of medical oxygen.

    While the thousands of infections could have clearly overwhelmed the healthcare infrastructure of any city, the fact remains that the acute scarcity of medical supplies was not just down to a high number of cases.

    However, the recent revelation of AAP MLA Praveen Kumar's role in hoarding Covid-related medicines is what has truly been tough to take.

    Soon after Delhi's drug controller told the Delhi High Court to seek immediate action against the guilty parties, it was sure enough that the national capital's AAP government and its chief Arvind Kejriwal's name was thrown in the dirt.

    Amid the lockdown, all of us have been dreaming of a vacation. Our Bollywood celebrities, though, own these dream properties. Apart from their luxurious homes and some extravagant items, some stars have abodes in the beautiful mountains. From the 'Queen' of Bollywood Kangana Ranaut to the known 'Perfectionist' Aamir Khan, here are 5 celebrities who own a haven in the hills.

    Aamir Khan owns a beautiful and swanky abode in Panchgani. He holds a 2-acre property amid the serene greenery. Apart from his luxurious home in Pali Hill, Bandra, this one is a perfect weekend getaway. He built this fantastic house a few months after he married Kiran Rao, and it cost him Rs 7 Crores.

    ‘Mujh se pehli si muhabbat mere mehboob na maang, Maine samjhaa tha ke tu hai to darakhshaan hai hayaat, Tera gham hai to gham-e-dehar ka jhagdaa kyaa hai...Aur bhi dukh hai zamaane mein muhabbat ke siwaa
    Raahatein aur bhi hain vasl ki raahat ke siwaa’
    Noor (played by Meher Mistry) recites a verse by Faiz Ahmad Faiz to Anwar (Kartik Aaryan) and perfectly captures the essence of the short film. If you have watched Silvat, you would agree with me that it’s at par with the realistic shows that Pakistani filmmakers have directed over the years.
    © Zee5
    It is the story of a woman named Noor, whose husband moved to Riyadh 2 days after their wedding and she finds solace in Anwar who’s a tailor, and he finds himself falling in love with her. The pain and pleasures of first love are so beautifully portrayed that you can instantly fall in love with both the characters. You know their love story is doomed and unfortunate but you still can’t help yourself rooting for the two.

    Kartik Aaryan has done an exemplary job in portraying such an intense character with calmness. There’s a scene in the movie where Anwar destroys Noor’s bed sheet and the viewers are taken back to the scene where he told Noor that he wants to marry someone he loves but his world came crashing down when he got to know that Noor’s husband will be coming back.
    © Zee5
    It’s hard to imagine Kartik this way because he has done roles that are in contrast to Anwar. In an interview with The Hindu, director Tanuja Chauhan said, “I am a lover of unexpected casting. Kartik has done urban, bad-boy roles, but I had the distinct feeling that there was a stillness in him, which for me, in any case, is the thing that most conveys an actor’s capabilities. And happily, I was right. In the film, he has shown gentleness, tenderness, sweetness, but also rage within. He is just wonderful in the film.” Kartik surely has a lot of potential and it’s time that we start seeing the set notion about him.

    Meher does go off track in between but picks up the pace once again and the last scene completely jolts you a viewer and leaves you sympathetic towards the doomed love story of Anwar and Noor.
    © Zee5
    As the movie is set in 1997 Bombay, the director perfectly manages to transport us back to the old days as she has kept her narrative in a subtle fashion.

    In a nutshell, Silvat beautifully captures the fight between pursuing your love and sticking to a moral code of conduct as a married woman.
    Here’s the trailer: 


    Kartik recently took to Instagram to express his gratitude and also shared a teaser of the film. He captioned it, "Always grateful to Tanuja Chandra ma'am for this experience."

    After his post on his social media handles, people who have watched the movie and also the ones who recently encountered it are calling it a masterpiece and we don’t deny this claim.
    Here are the reactions:

    People eagerly waiting for John Wick 4 have a reason to celebrate, for Donnie Yen has joined the crew and will be seen alongside Keanu Reeves.
    © Lionsgate
    The John Wick series has to be one of the best action films franchises that we have had in the last decade. The last film, John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum, in particular, was spectacular. 

    © Lionsgate
    The fighting sequences, especially the close-quarters, hand-to-hand combat sequences were blissful to watch, mainly because of how beautifully they were choreographed.

    © Lionsgate
    Well now, with John Wick 4 currently in production, fans of the series will get to see something really magical. Yen, after all, is a highly regarded martial artist and action star.

    © Well Go USA
    For those who have been living under a rock all this while, and don’t know who Donnie Yen is, he is the guy who stars in the legendary Ip Man film series. Ip Man was a chinese martial artist, who settled down in Hong Kong for the later part of his life, and taught Bruce Lee several forms of martial arts, but mainly, Wing Chun.

    © Wiki Commons
    Donnie Yen’s iteration of Ip Man has garnered a lot of praise from martial art enthusiasts and fans of kung fu films all across the world. One of his core expertise is to choreograph fighting sequences. 

    © Well Go USA
    An American entertainment website reports that Donnie will play the role of an old acquaintance of John Wick, who 'shares his same history and many of the same enemies'. Given that John was left in a pretty bad shape at the end of Chapter 3, fans of the series can expect a stellar story in the next instalment.

    Fans, of course just couldn’t contain their excitement over the news.

    It’s been a while since we took a trip to a scenic hill station since we have been homebound for a year now due to the ongoing pandemic and lockdown restrictions. 
    Amidst this, any time anyone shares a throwback picture of their trip in the mountains or their wanderlust spots they wish to travel to, it makes us go weak in the knees.

    A NASA astronaut took this one level up when he shared an aerial picture of the Himalayas from space and made Twitter go into major FOMO mode. 

    Mark T. Vande Hei is currently aboard the ISS and keeps on sharing pictures of Earth from up there. He recently captured the stunning Himalayan range and Twitter went crazy about the view.

    He shared the picture with the caption, “Somewhere on a clear, bright day in the Himalayas. I can’t get enough views like this.”

    While some users thanked him for blessing their feeds with the gorgeous picture of the mountain range, others couldn't believe how majestic the Himalayas looked from space.

    This is not the first time Mark T. Vande Hei has shared a view from space. He shared a picture of clouds hovering over the Aleutian Islands. He wrote, “Check out the cross-hatch pattern of the clouds formed by the high winds passing over the Aleutian Islands,” with the hashtag #SpaceIsCloserThanYouThink

    Another astronaut from the same ISS Shane Kimbrough also shared a nighttime view of Italy a few days back on his official Twitter account and left netizens mesmerized. He wrote, “Turin, Italy – a city with rich history and culture in northern Italy is easy to spot from @Space_Station. Buona Notte Italia!”

    The photo of the Himalayas has got more than 4.9k likes and hundreds of comments from netizens across the globe. They can’t get enough of the view and neither can we! We’d be waiting for more such beautiful pictures from space.
