    Karan Johar has proven one thing pretty explicitly is that he is a man of expensive taste. 

    Time and again, he has shown his love for maximalism and no matter where he goes, he doesn't forget to stand out in the luxury pieces he owns. 
    He is considered to be a fashion connoisseur and just when we thought we have taken a glance at most of his extravagant pieces, he made an appearance yet again, decked in some dope-looking styles.

    He can also be seen wearing a strange-yet-dope looking denim jacket. This style is oversized and literally is a four sleeved jacket, so one can wear it in unique ways. 

    He paired the baggy number with an extra-long pair of joggers. 
    As for accessories, he kept it basic but the huge, quirky ring, adds to the normcore aesthetics he is trying to pull here.

    In all, the outfit is peppy and the sneakers are like the cherry on top.

    Whether you are a billionaire or someone with a modest background, we all have some form of carbon footprint. We get to work in cars, go on vacations in planes and use electricity in our homes. However, when it comes to billionaires, energy usage can increase to astronomical levels as they often travel for work, own yachts or have multiple houses that use a lot of energy. However, not all billionaires are the same as some have a very low carbon footprint as compared to others, according to a recent study and report.

    Bill Gates stressed in his recent book, the importance of climate change and how we should reduce our carbon footprint. Gates wants people to stop eating meat and switch to synthetic meat instead. He also feels going to Mars in a rocket may not be the best way to go about space travel. In fact, even though billionaires have tried to be environmentally conscious, some of them have a larger carbon footprint than the average person.

    Two anthropologists from Indiana University wanted to find out whether wealth translated to a higher footprint due to consumption. The calculation by Richard Wilk and Beatriz Barros was published in The Conversation and found that billionaires do in fact have a higher carbon footprint, sometimes thousands of times higher than the average person. Since many of the billionaires own yachts, planes and multiple mansions, it all contributes to the overall carbon footprint. For perspective, a helicopter pad, submarines, pools and a yacht with a permanent crew emit about 7,020 tons of CO2 a year. 

    In order to determine an accurate footprint, the two anthropologists focused on real estate transportation to calculate the carbon emission from each billionaire. However, to everyone’s surprise, neither Musk nor Bezos or Gates had the highest carbon footprint as the top spot is currently being held by a Russian billionaire, Roman Abramovich.
    According to Forbes, the Russian billionaire owns the world second largest yacht which he bought for nearly $400 million in 2010. The billionaire is also best known for owning Chelsea F.C., a Premier League football club. The second-highest carbon emitter was David Geffen, an American businessman who is a producer, film studio executive, and philanthropist.

    Bill Gates on the other hand had a very "modest" carbon footprint since he does not own any yachts. Most of his carbon footprint is related to flying as he owns four private jets, a seaplane and “a collection” of helicopters. His annual footprint was measured at 7,493 metric tons of carbon. 

    Elon musk also has a surprisingly low carbon footprint even though he owns a yacht but doesn’t take any vacations. Musk also sold all of his 8 houses and reduced his carbon footprint since 2018 as well. 
    "While his personal carbon footprint is still hundreds of times higher than that of an average person, he demonstrates that the super-rich still has choices to make and can indeed lower their environmental impact if they so choose,” the anthropologists said. 
    It is worth pointing out that the study excluded most billionaires from the Middle East and Asia. Most of the data relies on public records and does not include the emissions of companies they own. For example, emissions from Amazon or Tesla were not included as it would have “added another significant degree of complexity.”

    Influencers in India may have a tough fight ahead as the Advertising Standards Council of India (ASCI) have issued new draft rules for advertising and promotions by influencers on digital platforms. The new rules are being introduced to protect consumer interest as the watchdog seeks to oversee the growing influencer market.

    Unlike the USA, in India influencers are not required to declare any paid promotions or advertising at the moment to their followers which has been problematic in the past. The new draft code now has a rule where influencers will have to clearly identify and label upfront that said communication is an advertisement. “The biggest part of the new rules is to tell consumers that you are watching an ad and not content. That disclosure has to be in a prominent position," said Manisha Kapoor, secretary-general, ASCI.

    The new rule suggests that influencers will have to distinguish advertisements and paid promotions that a follower can clearly identify. The new rules will be applicable for all digital devices across phones, tablets and laptops. The advertisement or sponsored segment needs to be visible regardless of the product or app is being used or not. 
    The new rules will be applicable across all platforms such as Twitter, Instagram, Youtube amongst others and is applicable to video, audio or picture promotions. For audio, the disclosure needs to be stated at the beginning and the end.

    The rules also extend to claims made for sponsored products to exaggerate claims the brand is making. “In case of a shampoo ad, the influencer should not use a filter to make the hair look shinier," said Subhash Kamath, chairman, ASCI, adding that sponsored posts also need to be truthful and honest. 

    The new rules have been prepared in collaboration with digital and social media influencers and key stakeholders. The rules are open for public discussion and suggestions until 8th march. The final guidelines are going to be introduced by 31st March and will be enforced for all promotional posts published after 15th April 2021.

    Ayushmann Khurrana, in a short span of time, became one of the most dependable actors in Bollywood. 
    He started his journey as an RJ, then a VJ, post which he ventured into the film industry. 
    Khurrana has come a long way and so have his fashion choices. His early years were a mix of simple, casual styles but with time, his style statement has only evolved. 
    Now, it's beyond the usual and that's a fact that we have established. Thanks to his stylist Isha Bhansali, who helped him make some incredible sartorial choices.

    We recently spotted Ayushmann at the airport in one of the quirky ensembles. 

    It's easy to assume that this would be an intriguing element of his outfit but turns out, it's actually the backpack he was carrying that was the show stopper.
    Before we head to the details of his bag, take a look at his extra-ordinary outfit.
    © Nike
    As for his sneakers, he wore a pair of Nike Air Jordan metallic silver sneakers. 

    The monochromatic construction of the sneakers is made out of grey nubuck and the tongue is made in leather fabric. Furthermore, the design is made of the balls and wings logo on the flap and has text on the tongue.
    The price of these sneakers is almost Rs 17, 8 47. 
    Considering the silhouette, these sneakers have a futuristic vibe and seem worth the cost.

    Coming to the pièce de résistance, the backpack is Gucci's black signature backpack. 

    The style comes in buffer leather and is embossed with a logo pattern throughout. With that, it has the carry handle on top with adjustable should straps and zippered compartment at the face.

    The captain of the Indian cricket team, Virat Kohli, is known to be aggressive on the field when it comes to reprimanding his own teammates for misfields, and dropped catches. Over the years the Indian batsman has also gotten involved in several controversies including showing ‘the finger’ to Australian spectators while playing on their own ground.

    And even though a noticeable difference has been seen in Kohli’s conduct on the field over the years, there has been established a certain set of presumptions about the 32-year-old about him being ‘arrogant’.

    In a conversation with Sportskeeda, the former selector for the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) Sarandeep Singh, debunks those presumptions and shares an interesting story of the mega-star’s humility and humbleness.

    "At his home, there are no servants. He (Kohli) and his wife (Anushka Sharma) will serve food to everyone. What else do you want? Virat always sits with you, chats with you, and goes out for dinner with you. All the other players have so much respect for him. He's very down-to-earth and strong-willed," Singh said.

    "On the field, he needs to be that way because he's the captain. He's the one who'll handle the pressure on the ground and make decisions in the heat of the moment," he added.

    Singh even went on to talk about the skipper’s mannerisms while attending team meetings.
    "Whenever Virat comes, team meetings used to go on for 1, 1.5 hours. Virat is a good listener. I don't know what people think about him. If you see him in the matches, he's always charged up while batting and fielding. So it seems like he's always hot and arrogant, and doesn't listen to anyone. But no, he's as down-to-earth as he seems aggressive on the field. In selection meetings, he was so polite. He always used to listen to everyone and then finally come to a decision,” he added.

    Virat Kohli and his Men in Blue are currently getting themselves prepared for the Day-Night Test match against Joe Root’s touring England squad at Ahmedabad’s Sardar Patel Gujarat Stadium. With the four-match series tied at 1-1, the pink ball clash will have major consequences for both sides with regards to the World Test Championship later in the year.

    With just a couple of days ahead of the pink-ball Test between India and England at the Sardar Patel Gujarat Stadium aka the Motera Stadium in Ahmedabad, Rohit Sharma broke his silence on all the debates that took place regarding the pitch conditions back in Chennai’s Chepauk Stadium in the first and second matches of the series. 
    ️️ Every team has the right to home advantage, reckons @ImRo45. @Paytm #INDvENG #TeamIndia pic.twitter.com/ZbF7ufj01M
    — BCCI (@BCCI) February 21, 2021
    In the video shared by the official Twitter handle of the Board on Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), Sharma says:  
    "Pitch remains the same for both teams, I don't know why this discussion happens so much. Pitches in India are being prepared in the same manner for many years now. I don't think there have been any changes in that regard or there should be any changes." 
    View this post on Instagram
    "Every team makes full use of their home advantage. When we go out, the same happens there as well, they don't think about us. So, why should we think about anyone? What we like and what is our team's preference, we should do that... this is what home or away advantage is all about. Otherwise, take out the home and away advantage away and play cricket without it. Tell ICC to make a rule, setting identical norms for pitches in India and outside," he added. 
    "But when we travel overseas, they also make life difficult for us. So, I don't think we should discuss much about the pitches and instead talk about the game and players. Discussions about how a player is batting or how a bowler is bowling are completely fine but not pitches because conditions remain the same for both teams and whoever plays the best will win," he concluded. 
    And while the fans of the Indian cricket team were completely in favour of the opening batsman and, in fact, lauded him for speaking up, a certain Michael Vaughan ended up ‘agreeing’ to Sharma’s comments, and it resulted in a laughing riot on social media. 
    Totally agree ... https://t.co/SR9uEZMFrN
    — Michael Vaughan (@MichaelVaughan) February 21, 2021
    Vaughan wrote just two words “Totally agree ...” while retweeting BCCI’s video and the post went viral on the platform, most of which consisted of Indian fans trolling the former England skipper for back-tracking on his own words within a quick span of days. 
    Vaughan bhaiya translate kar denge toh daura pad jayega aapko. Rehne do.

    Kya u turn leta hai ye aadmi... Abhi 4 din pehle tho bolraha tha ki this pitch is a disgrace for test cricket.

    — Tanmay Sharma 🇮🇳 (@TanmayS26) February 21, 2021


    @wwasay It is shocking that a former English captain has such poor and myopic outlook regarding the game. Add to that, an icing of perpetual hypocrisy, an endless stream of faux-pa’s and we have ourselves a real winner.
    — Toot (@toothead) February 21, 2021
     Why Did This Become Such A Big Issue? 
    As the second match of the series was going on, Vaughan openly criticised the pitch and was ready to ‘social media’ debate with anyone, including former Australian skipper Shane Warne.
    It didn’t do anywhere near as much for 2 sessions ... Spun but not like what it’s doing now ... India would have drawn the first Test if they had batted anything like in the 1st innings ... This isn’t a good Test match pitch ... https://t.co/HhK6dYLiHm
    — Michael Vaughan (@MichaelVaughan) February 14, 2021
    He had referred to the Chepauk turf as a “beach” and had criticised the work done to prepare the pitch for the Test as a “shocker”. 
    During the second Test, Indian batsmen like Rohit Sharma, skipper Virat Kohli and local Chennai lad, Ravichandran Ashwin batted like their true selves. 
    Sharma opened India’s first innings with a masterful 161-run knock, followed by a crucial partnership between Kohli and Ashwin in the second innings. 
    Ashwin also smashed a well-deserved ton in the latter half of the match to combine with his five and three wickets in the first and second innings respectively to solidify his case as the ‘Man of the Match’ award.
