    As a movie star, Yash, or Rocking Star Yash as he is often referred to, enjoys a massive fan following. It wouldn’t be a stretch to say that people all over the country watch him very closely, especially his style and grooming moves.

    His screen presence is something that people just can’t get over. Saying that Yash dominates his co-stars, no matter how good performers they are, whenever he’s in the frame, would be an understatement - such is his charisma.

    © Instagram/thenameisyash
    We genuinely believe that he is one of the most stylish actors, both in terms of fashion and grooming, in Indian cinema. Heck, we think that many Bollywood celebrities and actors ought to take notes from him on matters of style.

    © Instagram/thenameisyash
    We pick 6 movies where Yash’s beard & hairstyles were on a different level. Guys, trust us when we say, that you really can’t go wrong if you decide to go for one of these styles.

    1. Raja Huli © Lakshmisri Combines
    Let’s keep aside the OTT action sequences and just how vibrant the film looks. Yash’s beard style for this film is very quirky and yet something that we can totally see his ardent fans trying. Technically, its called a “Friendly Muttonchop,” but think of it more along the lines of a Chin Curtain Meets Fu Manchu. Seriously, that’s a dope style move.

    2. Kirataka © Amigo Indirajal Movies
    In one of his older films, Kirataka, Yash is barely recognisable. Here, Yash is seen in a simplistic, side-parted and slightly oiled up hair, with a very basic, but thick and densely growing stubble. We like how Yash has managed to keep the beard sharp, without losing any of that “desi” quality that his character needed.

    3. Santhu Straight Forward © K. Manju Cinemas
    In this 2016 film, Yash had a rather cool hairstyle. A take on the full headed mohawk, we see the hair spiked and leaning towards one side. We also get to see some good products such as waxes and moose being used to hold the hair in its place. As for his beard, we like how he has defined his beard. We also like the prominent soul patch that he has gone for.

    4. Masterpiece © Hombale Films
    This is where we start seeing that iconic full-bodied and full-length beard in its infancy. The longish hair, and the thick, short boxed beard look supremely dapper and would go on to be the basis of a fine, and drool-worthy beard.

    5. Rajadhani © Sri Deviramma Enterprises
    A film from 2011, in Rajadhani we see Yash keeping a rather dope looking, free-flowing, side-parted hair, and a short boxed beard, which looks extremely cool. It goes perfectly well with the boy-next-door image that he was going for in the film.

    6. KGF: Chapter 1 © Hombale Films
    Finally, we have KGF: Chapter 1, the film that put Yash on every Indian cinema fan’s radar. His long, full-bodied beard was just awesome. Saying that it was drool-worthy would be an understatement. Plus, his hair, too, was epic. It went perfectly well with the messiah-like, larger than life figure that Rocky’s character was. We always thought that Leonidas’ beard from 300 was one of the best beards in movie history. This one, though, was even better.

    In Conclusion…
    Appearances do matter a lot in how a character is received by the audience, and Yash seems to have cracked the code to pick out the best hair & beard style for his films. He just knocks it out of the park, every single time. That’s the sign of a truly great actor, someone, who was born to be in front of the camera.
    PS - We know there might be movies that we may have missed, where Yash’s beard & hairstyles were spectacular. Do let us know in the comments below, what other movies of Yash should we include in the list.

    Just when the Indian cricket team looked out of breath and struggling to put up runs on the scoreboard after big names like Virat Kohli, Shikhar Dhawan, and Rohit Sharma got out, ODI debutant Krunal Pandya and KL Rahul rose to the occasion and lit up the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium with fours and sixes.
    And while Rahul took his time to settle in before going for the bigger shots, Krunal Pandya came to the pitch with the ‘go big or go home’ mentality.
    View this post on Instagram
    Looking to hit over the ropes from the very first over he faced, Pandya went on to score his first half-century in ODIs in just 26 deliveries, making him the quickest batsman in the world to reach the 50-run in on debut.
    And while the 29-year-old was busy dominating the field, the pressure on the England bowlers clearly became visible in the penultimate over of the innings when pacer Tom Curran said something objectionable to the hitter which ended up rubbing him off the wrong way.

    — वि शा ल (@_iamvish) March 23, 2021
    Instead of coyly ignoring Curran’s comments, an agitated Pandya ended up chasing him to “clear the air” but had to be stopped by umpire Nitin Mennon to avoid unnecessary conflict.
    And while the theatrics were taking place in the middle of the Pune ground, the cameramen continued to focus on Indian skipper Virat Kohli to record his reaction to the incident and they could not have spanned onto the captain at a better time.

    Kohli’s confused yet concerned expression ended up becoming a source of several memes online ever since:

    *Hits a six next ball*
    > Dedicates it to Sam Curran's mother.
    — Bengaluru Adda (@bengaluruadda) March 23, 2021Pandya’s debut innings only added to the narrative of Team India’s bench bandwidth and the abundance of talent available for captain Virat Kohli to operate with ahead of every single match in all three formats of the game.
    Krunal absolutely broke down in tears after receiving his debut cap as he embraced his younger brother Hardik in the middle of the field. After everything incredible that he achieved during the match, he’d raise his hands in the air to pay respects to his father, who’d recently passed away.

    OnePlus just announced its 9 series of smartphones and I’ve been using the ‘Pro’ variant for about 12 days to evaluate how good the phone really is. The OnePlus 9 Pro is the company’s latest flagship device that packs everything you need from a premium smartphone. In my opinion, the OnePlus 9 Pro is leagues ahead of its predecessor thanks to improved photography and performance that is currently unmatched by any Android device in the market right now. Here’s what I think about the OnePlus 9 Pro and all the features it has on offer:

    Design and Display The OnePlus 9 Pro continues the long tradition of offering a smartphone with premium build quality but for a lower cost than its competition. However, this time around, OnePlus has opted to use a glass back body that is reflective like a mirror. It’s different from the OnePlus 8 Pro’s matte finish back from last year which means the phone does end up being a fingerprint magnet. If you don’t use the smartphone without a cover, you will end up finding yourself cleaning the device every now and then. 
    © MensXP/Akshay Bhalla
    This time around OnePlus has also changed the look of the smartphone instead of lifting a design from its previous smartphones. The camera module on the top left corner looks distinctly unique and blends in well with the rest of the body. The camera module also has Hasselblad’s branding that isn’t too jarring to look at. Overall, the back of the smartphone has a very clean look with minimal branding and gives off a classy vibe. At the front, the smartphone has a punch-hole display like the OnePlus 8 Pro which is now standard on smartphones. OnePlus still has a physical slider for managing notification sounds which I believe many more OEMs should start implementing. Additionally, the smartphone also has an IP68 rating which means the phone can survive in 1.5 meters of water for 30 minutes. Lastly, much like the OnePlus 8 Pro, the 9 Pro also supports Qi Wireless charging and can be fast-charged using the ‘Warp Wireless Charger’.
    © MensXP/Akshay Bhalla
    In terms of the display, the OnePlus 9 Pro has a 6.7-inch QHD+ LTPO AMOLED display that has a refresh rate of 120Hz. The smartphone does utilise a variable refresh rate feature where it automatically adjusts the refresh rate according to what you are doing on the screen. It works very similar to Samsung’s adaptive refresh rate feature and works well in most cases. However, in one instance the smartphone would reduce the refresh rate down to about 5-6Hz when reading articles via Facebook which should be fixed in a future update soon. Apart from the one instance, the smartphone’s display is a dream to use with ultra-smooth scrolling, navigation and gaming. 
    © MensXP/Akshay Bhalla
    The display itself is also of high-grade quality where colours are accurate enough for daily use. I would have liked to see the colour calibration similar to the Galaxy S21 Ultra for a bit more sharpness and colour accuracy but it is still amongst the best screens we’ve used yet. The display supports HDR10+ format and has a brightness level of 1300 nits which is enough for using the smartphone under direct sunlight. Content from OTT platforms like Netflix, Prime Video and others look extremely vivid with deep blacks and high colour accuracy. The phone does offer a true-to-life viewing experience in most cases however the display does lose a bit of contrast under sunlight. There is also some weird aliasing happening along with the curved corners of the display. There was little to no artefacting issues that we could notice with the naked eye as it only occurs on higher frequencies. 

    CameraThe camera performance on OnePlus smartphones in the past have been the most criticised feature however this time around it seems like the company took our criticisms seriously. The OnePlus 9 Pro has made the biggest leap in the photography department. It’s probably because the cameras have been tuned in partnership with Hasselblad and the results are quite impressive. The smartphone comes with a Sony IMX789 48MP primary camera, a Sony IMX766 50MP ultra-wide camera that can also take macro shots, and an 8MP telephoto camera.
    © MensXP/Akshay Bhalla
    The ultra-wide camera has seen the most improvement as the smartphone captures highly detailed images and works well in Nightscape mode too. Smartphones often don’t implement a high-fidelity ultra-wide sensor however in this case it was by far the most addicting sensor to use. The ultra-wide sensor on the OnePlus 9 Pro is worthy enough to capture picturesque landscape vistas without compromising any of the details.
    © MensXP/Akshay Bhalla
     In my experience, the phone was capable of handing most scenarios including low-light environments. The camera is also capable of taking impressive ‘Nightscape’ images which have been a hit and miss in the past. The only disappointing sensor was the telephoto lens as it did not capture images with enough detail and would often result in images with a lot of noise. Overall, this is the best camera performance I’ve seen on an OnePlus device up until now. Finally, OnePlus has made a smartphone that doesn’t take images as if you are using a potato. Check out some of our camera samples below to get a better idea:

    Performance and Battery Life The OnePlus 9 Pro is powered by Qualcomm's latest Snapdragon 888 chipset and has been paired with LPDDR5 RAM that goes up to 12GB. We tested the 12GB version and it is by far the one of smoothest experience we’ve had on a smartphone all year. The phone was able to handle the most graphic-intensive game like ‘Genshin Impact’ with ease. I did not face any frame-rate drops and could run the game on the highest of settings possible. The phone also has excellent thermals where we did not face any overheating and throttling problems while gaming or trying to capture 8K video. 
    For the 12GB variant, the OnePlus 9 Pro scored 11185 (single-core) and 3661 (multi-core) on Geekbench 5. Those numbers easily beat most Android smartphones that have launched in India as of now including the Galaxy S21 Ultra. It still does not come close to the iPhone 12 Pro's performance but then again no Android device does at the moment. As for the graphics performance, the OnePlus 9 Pro scored 5614 (best loop score) and 3160 (lowest loop score) in 3DMark’s Wild Life Stress Test. The smartphone also easily maxed out the Sling Shot Extreme OpenGL test. 
    © MensXP/Akshay Bhalla
    In terms of battery life, the OnePlus 9 Pro could do a better job, especially when using the smartphone in QHD+ 120Hz mode. The smartphone gave me some 4.5 hours of screen-on-time which is not really great considering smartphones with the same LTPO display giving more battery backup. OnePlus should optimise the battery life in a future update as they are aware of the problem however for now it isn’t at par with the competition. At the moment, you can get more battery backup by running the display in 60Hz mode and on full HD resolution.

    The OnePlus 9 Pro comes with a 4,500 mAh battery that can be fast-charging using the Warp Charge 65T power brick that comes in the box. Additionally, the smartphone also supports Warp Charge 50 Wireless where both battery cells charge at 25W wirelessly. The battery can be fully charged in about 30 minutes (wired) and 50% in 30 minutes wirelessly. 

    OxygenOS 11OnePlus’ OxygenOS 11 is still my favourite Android Skin to use even though I sometimes don’t like the way it looks. Having said that, the Android Skin is extremely stable with little to no bugs that I came across during my testing period. All of my favourite features such as detailed customisation options, reverse wireless charging, zen mode, always-on display, dynamic wallpaper colour shifting amongst many others make a return.

    Since most of us are still working from home due to the COVID-19 pandemic, OxygenOS 11 comes with a new ‘Work-Life Balance’ mode as well where you can schedule downtime for calls, internet connectivity, communication apps and emails. It’s a feature I use extensively every day after 7:00 PM to take a break from work every day and enjoy some time with my dogs. The overall experience on OxygenOS is very smooth and clutter-free which is always what I look for in an Android smartphone. 

    The Final Say The OnePlus 9 Pro is my favourite flagship Android device of 2021 where it offers everything you need from a premium smartphone. With great photography, fast performance and a smooth software experience, currently there is nothing that matches the OnePlus 9 Pro. When considering the competition, the OnePlus 9 Pro is a better and more affordable alternative to the Galaxy S21 Ultra starting at Rs Rs 64,999.

    The release of Zack Snyder’s Justice League was the result of a massive campaign by dedicated fans who were desperate to see the original version of the 2017 theatrical cut of the film. 
    Now, seeing the massive success of both the campaign and the movie itself, fans of the DC universe are already back to campaigning.
    This time? It’s for the “Ayer Cut”.

    There is no doubt that Aamir Ali is one of the most fashionable TV actors in today's time. Be it his expensive track sneakers or laceless sneakers, the man has wowed us several times with his sartorial game. 
    Browse through his Instagram feed, and you will find Aamir acing some tasteful ensembles. 
    We also like his footwear choices and it won't be wrong to call him a sneakerhead too as we have seen him pick some dope shoes in the past.

    © Adidas
    Aamir is seen wearing a super quirky pair by Adidas, called the Streetball Shoes, inspired by the grassroots of basketball. 

    The construction shows a mid-cut shape mixes of leather and suede for a 90s era layered look. These are ultralight and have cushioning that can soften your step, without weighing you down.
    The Price:
    These sneakers aren't very overpriced, as they retail for almost Rs 10,345. 
    Of late, these type of sneakers have become quite popular and have been selling like hotcakes. Considering the silhouette of this pair, we think these shoes are totally worth the cost.
    Why It Works:

    Despite a slow start to the batting innings of the first of three ODIs against the touring England side, Shikhar Dhawan proved to be the strong anchor for the Men in Blue, at least for two-thirds of the innings. 
    After establishing a decent base with opening partner Rohit Sharma in the first 15 overs, Dhawan went on to play alongside skipper Virat Kohli for an incredible 105-run partnership, while driving up the run rate and targeting pacers and spinners alike.
    View this post on Instagram
    Kohli, who also found his form during the recently concluded T20I series, looked sturdy on the other side of the pitch until threw ended up tossing his wicket on an unexpected shot out of nowhere.
    Nonetheless, Dhawan stuck around hoping to look for another solid partnership but the back-to-back fall of Kohli and Iyer set him awry. In his nineties, Dhawan was visibly nervous to go for bigger shots like he was during the early stages of the match, after all, he had been dismissed within touching distance of a ton on five occasions previously.
    View this post on Instagram
    Then came England’s super-man allrounder Ben Stokes as the bearer of bad news for the 35-year old southpaw, who spoilt his innings and took away yet another century from him after removing him from the crease in the 39th over off an Eoin Morgan catch - a disappointed Gabbar had to return to the dressing room at 98.
    And even though fans were equally disappointed to see the big-hitter his his 18th century by just two runs, they were thoroughly convinced of the fact that Dhawan still has a lot in the tank:
    Heartbreak for Shikhar #Dhawan as he is dismissed for 98 🥺
    Looked in magnificent touch right from the beginning and dot balls from the other end might have put pressure on him.
    Still an outstanding innings by #Gabbar #INDvENG#ENGvIND pic.twitter.com/NbFbHrinap
    — Raghav Acharya (@raghavacharya95) March 23, 2021This was a serious comeback by Dhawan, Shows he still has alot to offer for Indian cricket.

    Well played @SDhawan25 gabbar #INDvsENG_2021 pic.twitter.com/BYEKETJSxw
    — Deepak Jalwal (@DeepakJalwal14) March 23, 2021How is a 100 a better landmark than 98. Still dhawan proved me wrong and contributed to possibly an indian win. Cricket fans and their obsession with landmarks!!!! Ufff https://t.co/sqxNRGbcWN
    — Arhan Vyas (@VyasArhan) March 23, 2021Dhawan is still the man though
    — Thelliam666 (@Thelliam666) March 23, 2021For England, Ben Stokes has been simply magnificent with the ball as he removes three of their top batsmen in Rohit Sharma, Hardik Pandya, and Dhawan himself. He has also been economical. In the first 8 overs that he has bowled, Stokes has only given away 34 runs and even has a maiden over under his name.
    Apart from the one drop by Moeen Ali early in the match, England’s fielding has also been on-point throughout the Indian innings and has given away very few runs off of unfocused errors.

    The moment we think of the word fashion, the very first thing that comes to mind is Bollywood and it won't be wrong, given the number of celebrities we see on the regular decked in some zany ensembles. 

    While this industry has already established that fact, we also have the sports industry, where some cricketers tend to make a pretty stellar style statement from time to time. 
    Take Hardik Pandya or Virat Kohli for example and you would agree with us.

    Of late, though, the legendary former cricketer Sachin Tendulkar has been making statement-worthy appearances. 

    From wearing floral embroidered jeans to stepping out in heeled shoes, the master blaster steers clear of 'normal' pieces and dares to try some outlandish silhouettes.
    © Viral Bhayani
    Very recently, we caught a glimpse of him at the airport, with Yuvraj Singh and both of them looked pretty stylish for the airport. 

    Yuvraj was decked in a simple hoodie paired with blue jeans while Sachin was seen in a basic T-shirt paired with blue joggers.
    © Viral Bhayani
    In continuation with his fashion adventures, we couldn't help but notice Sachin's pair of sneakers, that looked way more flamboyant than his super expensive suitcase from Louis Vuitton. Take a look.

    The Brands:
    © Asics
    © Asics
    We have often seen celebrities wear some rad pair of shoes. These ones, on the other hand, seem to lean more towards comfort than style. 

    Sachin is wearing Asics Dynaflyte 4 sneakers. These shoes are designed for road running and are a lightweight pair of shoes, to put a spring in your step. 
    Furthermore, these have rearfoot GEL technology that ensures shock absorption. The engineered jacquard mesh helps keep your feet dry and cool. 
    The reflectivity element of the shoe ensures you stand out.
    The Price:
    What surprised us the most is the price tag of these shoes. 
    Most of the sneakers we see these days, don't cost less than at least Rs 50K. However, turns out, our broke selves can actually afford these sneakers as they retail only for Rs 6,511 on the official Asics website. 
    On other e-commerce websites, these come for as low as Rs 5,000.
    Why It Works:
    © Viral Bhayani
    The outfit combination of going for a blue T-shirt with joggers seems ideal for the airport. 

    Add to that, these sneakers transformed the simplistic nature of the look. 
    We also like how Sachin has opted for a pair of sunglasses with a baseball cap here. Even his watch is sitting perfectly with this casual, airport look.
    In all, this look made us go 'Aaila', certainly!

    Tollywood icon Vijay Deverakonda is shooting in Mumbai these days, which is probably why he's usually seen chilling with Bollywood stars on the regular right now. 
    The Arjun Reddy star is busy shooting for his upcoming film Liger opposite Ananya Pandey for which he will be speaking Hindi dialogues. 
    He was also recently seen partying with Karan Johar, Janhvi Kapoor and others. Take a look at a sneak peek from their party here:
    © Viral Bhayani
    The South Indian superstar, who first made his debut with Nuvvila back in 2011, has now gained a sizeable following after doing films like Pelli Choopulu, Mahanati, Geetha Govindam, Taxiwala, Dear Comrade, and World Famous Lover which were massive hits in the Telugu film industry. 

    With over 11.1 Million followers on Instagram, Vijay has also launched his own homegrown label called, Rowdy Wear which is inspired by Vijay's uber-cool fashion aesthetic. 
    The fashion brand is popular among both men and women.
    © Viral Bhayani
    Vijay clearly has a distinct style statement that is worth talking about. 

    In fact, recently he stepped out in a rather intriguing outfit. Take a look at what he wore here:
    © Viral Bhayani
    © Viral Bhayani
    Vijay was seen wearing a coordinated playsuit which consisted of a matching shirt and a pair of shorts in blue. 

    The quirky patterned playsuit was paired with the Adidas YEEZY 700 V3 "Azael". These sneakers cut back on monograms and have a strange, extraterrestrial vibe to them. 
    Take a close at the sneakers here:
    © adidas
    While these sneakers are devoid of boost cushioning, the Azael edition has a black neoprene with a notched collar and striped textile underlays. 

    They also come encased in a sculpted, open-work cage which has minute detailing making it a glow-in-the-dark silhouette. 
    Originally the sneakers cost Rs 14,545, however, as per Goat, now they're being sold for $599, which comes down to Rs 43,000, approximately.

    Clearly, this sneaker silhouette is enough to take Vijay's outfit to the next level.

    It wouldn’t be an understatement to say that we simply love the manner and the extent to which Aparshakti Khurana pushes the sartorial envelope. 
    © Instagram/aparshakti_khurana
    There was this instance where he wore a pair of really dapper-looking sunglasses, which he borrowed from Patralekha when they were working together on a project.
    © Viral Bhayani
    Or how about this instance where he wore a very dope-looking “skirt” with a sharply structured blazer?
    © Instagram/aparshakti_khurana
    Well, very recently, Aparshakti did something similar, when he legit wore a pair of women’s sneakers. 

    However, before we get into that, let’s have a look at his overall outfit.
    © Viral Bhayani
    Aparshakti was recently spotted in Mumbai in an outfit that can be best described as quintessentially Aparshakti - quirky, and whimsical.
    © Viral Bhayani
    The basic, pinstriped blue T-shirt and that grey shirt is actually a cool pairing. So are the blue pairs of joggers that Aparshakti has gone for here. 
    © Viral Bhayani
    We particularly like the zaniness of his accessories. The first thing that stands out is the sunglasses. 

    These shades come courtesy of Rick Owens, an American designer and high street-fashion label known for its edgy and out of the box design ideas.
    © Viral Bhayani
    The sunglasses legit look like they were heavily inspired by those face shields that welders use. They retail for about $560 or about Rs 40,000, before customs and import duties. 
    © Rick Owens
    Fun Fact: Kim Kardashian has a similar pair, again from Rick Owens, which she has been spotted wearing quite a few times.
    © Pinterest
    Then there’s that dapper-looking watch that we see. That’s the Exospace B55 Volcano Black from Breitling, a watch that was designed for astronauts and space travel. 

    Consequently, the watch can operate in the harshest of conditions.
    © Viral Bhayani
    Fans of horology and watch collectors would be interested to know that the watch retails for $9,000 or roughly Rs 7,00,000. 
    © Breitling
    Finally, there are the shoes, that he’s wearing. They are the CL LAHR Blue Solid Women’s Running Shoes from Reebok, an old-school pair of sneakers, which, because of their retro design, stand out. 
    © Reebok
    The sneakers are actually quite affordable, considering that we have often seen Bollywood celebrities wear pairs that are as expensive as the latest iPhones.

    These Reebok sneakers are listed for about Rs 6,500 but can be picked up from most e-commerce platforms for as little as Rs 3,000. Now that’s a bargain if you ask us.
    © Viral Bhayani
    All in all, that’s one heck of an outfit that Aparshakti’s gone for. Those are some really nifty ways to amp up an outfit using some quirky accessories.

    OnePlus has officially revealed the OnePlus 9 Series along with other devices that the company will be launching soon. The company announced its latest devices that truly seem impressive considering the leaps the company has made in the camera and performance department. Along with smartphones, the company also announced the OnePlus Watch, a smartwatch meant to work with OnePlus phones as a first-party device. The OnePlus 9 Pro will retail in India starting at Rs 64,999 while the OnePlus 9 will retail in India starting at Rs 49,999. The company also announced a third smartphone that is a bit more affordable than the flagship devices. The OnePlus 9 Series will be available from March 27 onwards on Amazon and OnePlus’ own website. Here are all the details about the OnePlus 9 Pro, OnePlus 9 and OnePlus 9R that the company announced today. 
    OnePlus 9 Pro Specifications, Pricing and Features © OnePlus
    The OnePlus 9 Pro features all the specifications you would want from a flagship smartphone. The company also announced major advancements in the camera department thanks to a new partnership with Swedish camera company ‘Hasselblad’. The smartphone features a quad-sensor setup at the back which includes a Sony IMX789 48MP primary camera, a Sony IMX766 50MP ultra-wide camera that can also take macro shots, and an 8MP telephoto camera. The cameras have been colour calibrated in collaboration with Hasselblad and features a ‘Pro’ mode co-developed with the Swedish camera company. 

    © OnePlus
    The OnePlus 9 Pro comes with a 120Hz 6.7-inch QHD+ LTPO AMOLED display that has already gotten an ‘A+’ rating from the folks at DisplayMate. The display supports HDR10+ format and has a peak brightness level of 1,300 nits.

    You've already read the title and know what this piece is about. It's likely that you unfortunately have had an experience of the pain we speak of here (in that case you deserve a cookie and a hug, because uff) or you want to avoid it, in which case high five because you're smart. Really, no one should have to endure the pain of a nicked testicle. *Shivering even as I type this tbh*

    via GIPHY
    Now some of you may just go 'hey why do I even need to shave my balls I like them as they are, au naturel' and that's absolutely justified because you do you homie, but we just don't want you to get in trouble just before that sudden date (hopefully?). It's been a year and let's hope you get back in the game soon. Being prepared never hurt anyone.

    Having said that, if you don't want to do it, simply don't. There's nothing wrong with furry testicles. It's dangerous and if you don't want to put yourself through that potential ordeal, don't!

    via GIPHY
    Let's just go straight to the topic then. Here are 2 things you should strictly never do while shaving your balls, if you want to avoid painful, awkward, nasty accidents.


    via GIPHY
    1. Never start shaving without trimming the hair first. It's important. Have you ever grown a beard that's longer than a stubble? If you have, it will be easier for you to understand it. 
    How did you go about shaving it? Or even if you did it in a salon, do you remember how your barber executed the task? We can bet they didn't straightaway go in with some shaving cream and a razor. First, they must have trimmed it.

    via GIPHY
    They did it because it's easier to shave once the length of hair is small and manageable, and it would not give rise to a messy, hair-all-over-the-razor-blade kind of situation. Not trimming your ball fuzz first can give rise to nasty accidents because of lack of visibility and ideal dexterity, and we'd strictly recommend trimming first.


    via GIPHY
    2. Never form a huge pile of lather with your shaving cream and no, please don't go in blind with your razor like you do while shaving your face. That's a bloodbath waiting to happen right there, and you will cry if that happens. Loudly and inconsolably. 

    via GIPHY
    You see, as much as your brain wants you to believe that your testicles and your hand are in sync, and they will work together as you shave, it's a lie. Your eyes need to be the referee here as it's more of a wrestling match than a boardroom meeting. There's a reason why we say that. 

    via GIPHY
    The skin on your testicles is very smart, and it's unlike the skin on any other part of your body. Sometimes it hangs low, sometimes it tightens up - depending on temperature and several other factors. The main job of the skin around your balls is to make sure they are warm, protected, and the sperm is healthy. So just like a good guardian, it does whatever it has to. 

    via GIPHY 
    And you know how difficult it is to 'manage' smart people with regular techniques, right? That's exactly the case here. So, instead of lathering up your balls with shaving cream, use something that does the job but doesn't obstruct your view - a body wash or conditioner should do the job. Use one hand to pull and adjust the skin as per the shave strokes, and do it with as much precision and patience like a ninja on their final mission.

    via GIPHY
    Along with these two things, please make sure you're not in a hurry and are using water of the temperature which feels pleasant to you, and you should be fine. All the best!

    Whenever Manoj Bajpayee’s name is associated with any movie, you just know for sure that he will deliver a praiseworthy performance. 

    Yes, he is a superstar now, but Manoj has struggled immensely on his way to success and it wasn’t easy for the actor to create a space for himself in the industry where the competition is brutal.

    If you have seen his movie Bhonsle, you would agree with the fact that Manoj gave an exemplary performance in the movie. However, what most people don’t know is that Manoj and the director of Bhosle, Devashish Makhija were looking for producers to fund their movie.

    Little did they know that all their hard work will be rewarded in the form of a Best Actor award at the 67th National Film Awards.
    © Sony Liv
    Bajpayee is currently recovering from COVID but he was overjoyed all the same to know about this achievement. In an interview with HT, he said, “I am feeling so happy, not only for myself but also for my director Devashish Makhija, who has put all his beliefs and energy into it. I also feel thankful to Sandiip Kapoor, Piiyush Singh, and all the producers who have put in their energy and support in making this film. Also to each and everyone in the jury who thought it fit to give me this award.”

    Congratulations to @BajpayeeManoj for bagging the Best Actor award for #Bhonsle at the 67th National Film Awards!

    Watch his award-winning performance in #Bhonsle, streaming exclusively on SonyLIV, now.https://t.co/yxvnm78umJ pic.twitter.com/xF0gI4nmON

    This is the third time that Bajpayee has bagged the National Award which goes on to speak of how immensely talented the actor is. 
    Manoj admitted that there were times when he felt his performance wasn’t given enough credit, however, the National Award for Bhonsle made up for all the shortcomings in his past. 
    “Many times in the past, I felt many of my deserving ones got somewhere left out, but Bhonsle getting it has completely covered or made me forget everything that I didn’t get in the past. I thank everyone,” added the actor.

    Bhonsle was completely sidelined at many award ceremonies and when asked if National Awards are a testimony to critically acclaimed movies as the rest only focus on the mainstream cinema, he said, “I don’t know, these are very controversial questions. Putting one against the other is not something which is my scene. But it has happened in the past, my film Pinjar didn’t get any mention in any of the mainstream awards.”


    He went on to add, “Getting the National Award definitely makes you forget everything wrong that has happened in the past. But why think about it? You think about this, celebrate, be thankful to Almighty, to all the people who have shown so much belief.”
    Talking about the film, the actor shared that it almost 4 years to arrange funds for the movie. “It is a mission, which has come full circle and completed its journey. It took us four years to arrange the finance, and my association with Devashish started because of this film. There was no taker or support we got in this industry, we have done it all alone, with the help of few people like Sandiip and Piiyush, and many producers who have put in little money into it. I really think this award is not only for me, but all these guys,” Bajpayee concluded.
    In the film, Bajpayee plays the character of a retired cop, who later gets diagnosed with a brain tumour. The film also stars Santosh Juvekar, Ipshita Chakraborty Singh, Virat Vaibhav, Abhishek Banerjee, and Neetu Pande in key roles. 
    If you haven’t watched the movie yet, you are missing out on a gem.

    Forget Ranveer Singh or Aparshakti Khurana - the OG or the “original gangster” of Indian fashion has always been Govinda. 
    We will just say it, as it is - nobody comes close to the guy when it comes to quirky fashion.
    © Wiki Commons
    Millennials will remember the bright coloured shirts and insanely zany leather pants that he used to wear for his films. That was about 20-25 years ago. 

    One would assume that after all this time, he would have cleaned up his act, and become more “mainstream.” Boy, oh boy, would they be wrong.
    © Wiki Commons
    Govinda was recently spotted at the Mumbai Airport wearing a rather simplistic, but elegant looking bandhgala suit, complete with matching pants.
    © Viral Bhayani
    He also had a rather suave looking pair of single monk strap shoes.
    © Viral Bhayani
    The entire outfit, along with the shoes, looked elegant and poised. We also like the silk pocket square that Govinda has gone for. It elevates his outfit to a whole new level.
    © Viral Bhayani
    Having said all this, we still can’t help digest those sunglasses that Govinda has gone for. They legit look like a pair straight out of the early 2000s. 
    © Viral Bhayani
    The sunglasses that Govinda is wearing has 2 basic shades in a gradient - orange and blue. One zany thing about the sunglasses is that they change colours depending on how the light gets reflected off of them.
    © Viral Bhayani
    Another quirky thing about those sunglasses are the shape and the construction, as the “lenses” are actually one single part or a piece of plastic sheet. 

    While the construction isn’t that unusual, what sets these apart is how they sit on Govinda’s face.
    © Viral Bhayani
    Had Govinda gone for something more sombre as an accessory, like a pair of classic aviators, or wayfarers, preferably in black, instead of these sunglasses, the outfit would have looked much more refined and elevated.
    © Viral Bhayani
    It seems that old habits really die hard.

    Still, the bandhgala suit on its own is really what we should be focussing on. 
    That really is a piece that we would love to cop from his wardrobe. The addition of that contrasting pocket square, again, like we said, was a dope style move. 
    © Viral Bhayani
    All in all, that’s quite an outfit that Govinda’s got on here. Barring the questionable sunglasses, that is.

    Ankita Lokhande had revealed that pictures of Sushant Singh Rajput were up in her house even after they parted ways in 2016. She expressed how people used to come over and ask her as to why the pictures were still up. However, she never believed in running away from the situation so she kept the pictures till the time she thought she was done.

    She only removed the pictures when she was finally ready to let go and let someone else enter her life. Later, she met Vicky Jain, who is her current boyfriend.
    © SSR FB
    In an interview with Bollywood Bubble, she said that people would come over to her place after their break-up and tell her to take down the pictures. She said, “Give me time, yaar. I need my time. I am not somebody… Main 2.5 saal tak unke saath rahi hoon (I have lived with him for two-and-a-half years). I have lived my life with those pictures.”

    “I am not somebody who will run away from the situation. I was getting up and facing that thing every day so that agar Sushant kabhi mere saamne aaye toh (if Sushant ever comes in front of me) I face him strongly. That was my thought process,” she added.
    View this post on Instagram
    When she healed, she was able to take the pictures down. She expressed, “I faced it every single day. Ek din aaya (There came a day) when I realised that now I am done, now I need to remove the pictures. And I removed it. I felt that ek jagah khali hogi tabhi toh doosri pictures aayegi (only when I create space by removing those pictures that I can accommodate new pictures). I met Vicky and he is in my life. I am very, very, very happy with him,” she said, adding that her boyfriend is ‘very balanced’.”

    As fans of the CW show Batwoman would know, Ruby Rose stepped down from her role as Kate Kane after a stunt-related injury. 
    To allow her to exit the show, the show had shown that Kate Kane had gone missing after a plane crash and Javicia Leslie was cast as Ryan Wilder, who takes on the mantle of being the Batwoman in season 2.
    © CW
    Now, just when things were settled and the show had moved on, it seems Kate Kane will be returning, “altered” after the plane crash with Wallis Day cast for the role.

    Super excited to finally announce I’m joining the cast of Batwoman. I’m sure you can imagine how much this means to me and how incredible it’s been working on the show so far. Everyone’s made me feel so welcome and it’s amazing being back home with my DC family 🦇♥️ https://t.co/UJpkF1uAAC
    — Wallis Day (@wallisday) March 22, 2021 But with all the recasts, it’s safe to say people were just a tad bit confused.
    huh??? im so confused i thought they like killed her off why is she back
    — timmy HALEY DAY (@pietrosdjarin) March 22, 2021I’m so confused on what’s happening with this show. pic.twitter.com/2qfW0PlHDS
    — .nator. (@72Tominator) March 22, 2021Wait, so they went all the trouble to make a new character only to recast Kate Kane anyway?!
    — Jak (@Jak70760853) March 22, 2021However, showrunner Caroline Dries confirmed that Ryan Wilder will still remain Batwoman and that she didn’t want to conform to the “bury your gays” trope, where creators opt to kill off LGBTQ+ characters instead of giving them proper representation. 
    “As a lesbian who's been working as a writer for the past 15 years, I’m well aware of the 'Bury Your Gays' trope and I have no interest in participating in it," Dries had said in June 2020.  
    "Like you, I love Kate Kane — she's the reason I wanted to do the show. We'll never erase her. In fact, her disappearance will be one of the mysteries of season two. I don't want to give away any of our surprises, but to all our devoted fans, please know that LGBTQ+ justice is at the very core of what Batwoman is and we have no intention of abandoning that.”

    — Caroline Dries (@carolinedries) June 10, 2020 And what a surprise it was! Despite initial confusion, fans of the show are rejoicing at the return of the iconic character and the choice of cast.
