    Tesla chief Elon Musk was recently trending for becoming the world's richest person. It's indeed a prestigious title to claim from Jeff Bezos, who held the title for more than three years. It's surprising to see how much Elon Musk has achieved despite all the hardships that his company was facing.
    Well, let's just say that Elon Musk's reign as the world's richest person was brief because Jeff Bezos has reclaimed it. This happened after Tesla Inc. shares slid 2.4% on Tuesday, wiping $4.6 billion from Musk's fortune. It knocked him down from the top spot on the Bloomberg Billionaires Index ranking.

    MS Dhoni has always had a rather understated sense of style. You will rarely see him wearing something flashy, or something that turns heads.

    That is not to say that the man is not a style icon. On the contrary, he has given us some of the coolest fashion goals, and hairstyle goals ever.

    Well, recently, he was spotted at the Mumbai Airport wearing a rather dope looking pair of sneakers and joggers. 

    However, it was his watch that stole the show.

    Let’s have a look at his outfit first.

    Mahi is seen here wearing a rather dope, and understated athleisure outfit, that matches his persona. 
    He’s wearing a very dope looking camouflage-printed long-sleeved T-shirt, that has some cool, urban touches to it.

    Along with that, he has paired a very technical-looking pair of joggers from the French high fashion brand, Balmain.

    One aspect of his outfit that caught our eye, were his high-top sneakers. They have the silhouette and the aesthetic of a pair of highly-functional mountaineering boots, sans the chunky treaded sole.
    © Balmain
    The sneakers that we see here are again from Balmain. 

    Called the High Top B-Troop Sneakers in Black, these sneakers are made from treated calfskin leather and have some really technical-looking straps on them.
    © Balmain
    The straps aren’t just for show. They can be adjusted to allow the sneakers to fit one’s feet in the snuggest way possible. 

    This is one of the many qualities that make the sneakers a functional and technical piece.
    © Balmain
    The sneakers aren’t exactly cheap, if you’re thinking of getting your hands on a pair of these. They retail for about $790, or roughly Rs 60,000 when converted. 

    Add to that your regular customs and import duties, and you’re looking at a price tag of about Rs 90,000.

    As we said, it was his watch that stole the show though. Mahi is seen here wearing a rather dope looking timepiece from Panerai. 

    Particularly, he’s wearing the Submersible Marina Militare Carbotech in 47mm. 
    © Panerai
    The watch’s case is made of a specialised carbon fibre called Carbotech. It gets its pattern from the manner in which it is cut, which means no two watches have the same pattern.
    © Panerai
    As for the face, it is made using carbon fibre. The hour markers and the hands are painted with radium, which causes it to glow in the dark. 

    As for the straps, there are tons of rubber, or fabric-based straps one can choose from. This actually adds to the militaristic appeal of the watch.
    © Panerai
    All in all, the watch is a really dope piece. And expensive as well. In India, it retails for Rs 30 Lakhs, plus taxes. 
    © Viral Bhayani
    Dhoni does know how to pick his watches. We particularly like the militaristic aesthetic of the watch, and how it matches that of his overall outfit. 

    A dope style move indeed, Mahi! Take a bow.

    Twitter has announced that it's introducing the 'Voice DM' feature on its mobile app. This feature comes after it rolled out the audio tweets and Audio Spaces features. Twitter is clearly trying to go all-in on making audio an integral part of its platform.
    The voice DM feature is initially available to users in India, Brazil, and Japan starting Feb 17 which is today. We're glad that this feature is finally making its way to the users because it's been an experimental feature for quite some time now. It's slowly rolling on both Android and iOS and you should start seeing it soon.

    test,test: Starting today, you'll be able to record and send voice messages in DMs Here’s how

    PS. The experiment will be rolled out in phases. pic.twitter.com/aqQM6h9sof
    — Twitter India (@TwitterIndia) February 17, 2021 “We’re excited to bring the voice messages in DMs experiment to the country and give people a new way to express themselves and help them connect through the nuances, emotion, and empathy built by hearing someone’s voice,” stated Manish Maheshwari, Managing Director, Twitter India in an official press release.
    How To Use Twitter Voice DM Feature
    Open the Twitter app and head to the ‘Messages’ tab from the bottom navigation bar. Now, start a new conversation or enter an existing one to see a new 'wave' icon to the right of the message text box.
    Simply tap on it to start recording and tap it again to finish recording. It's different from how other apps let you tap and hold to record a voice message on Android. On iOS, however, you might have to tap and hold to record, but it'll be available to use at the same spot.
    The Twitter app will let you replay the message before sending it, so that's great.

    Twitter on the web won't let you record voice DMs, at least not yet, but you can listen to the ones sent to you. Considering how it manages to quickly roll out its features, we expect the voice DM feature to be available on the web very soon as well.

    Until then, we suggest you check out the feature on your mobile phone and try sending some audio messages to your friends. Your voice DMs will still go to Message Requests if it's coming from somebody that you don't follow, so you don't have to worry about random people sending you weird audio messages. You can simply choose to ignore it if you think it's coming from someone you don't know.

    B-towners like Ranveer Singh and Karan Johar have established their positions as major sneakerheads in India. 

    However, our cricketers aren't far behind too. Take Hardik Pandya or Virat Kohli, for example, who have time and again gained traction for their sartorial choices and impressive sneaker collection.

    When it comes to bizarre and over-the-top food, we never thought we would see anyone beat the USA for that. 
    I mean, that country literally deep-fries anything they can get their hands on, from Oreos to a Mars bar.
    But, an ice-cream parlour from Pakistan seems to be giving them tough competition. 
    Ice-cream rolls being made using a McDonald's burger seems like the most American thing ever, but nope, it's actually made by our neighbours.

    Pakistan’s Chaudairy Ice Cream Parlour is going viral for their truly bizarre food combination and we can't decide if it's more offensive to ice cream or burgers.

    — Darshan Pathak (@darshanpathak) February 15, 2021We've seen so many weird food combinations, that include so many heinous crimes committed against our beloved chai, and this new burger ice-cream is just as bad as all of them, if not worse.
    Let's just revisit some of them and see how much these people have made everyone else die inside with their weird food habits.
    Here's pizza dipped in chai.

    Of course, the infamous gulab-jamun pizza.

    A question for all of these people - who hurt you?

    Coming back to the ice-cream burger, people are wondering what McDonald's would have to say about this new innovative flavour.

    In the world of digital banking, we often make mistakes by transferring money to someone by accident. It seems like we aren’t the only ones who can make such mistakes as Citibank committed one of the "biggest blunders in banking history.” In a major facepalm moment, the company wired almost half a billion dollar to Revlon’s lenders and now won’t be allowed to recover it, a US District Court judge ruled.
    © Reuters
    The bank was acting as Revlon’s loan agent and was meant to send about $8 million in interest payments to the company’s lenders. However, in a major snafu, the company accidentally transferred an amount that was almost 100 times what they were supposed to transfer. Citibank transferred $175 million to a hedge fund as a part of this massive blunder. In total, Citibank accidentally sent $900 million to Revlon’s lenders. Citibank did not realise its mistake until a day later. 

    The bank soon filed a lawsuit to recover the funds, however the bank has still not received $500 million from 10 investment advisory firms. Usually recipients of the money transferred in error are required to return it and is even a federal offence to spend that money. However, in this case, the creditors had reasonable ground to believe the payment was intentional according to Judge Jesse M. Furman of the U.S. District Court in Manhattan.

    Since the defendants believed the transfer was done in “good faith and with ample justification” and for the full Revlon loan, the ‘defendants’ were entitled to keep the money. The judge said the lenders’ assumption about repayment made sense since the cosmetic company Revlon was known to be under financial problems due to the COVID-19 pandemic. 

    "To believe that Citibank, one of the most sophisticated financial institutions in the world, had made a mistake that had never happened before, to the tune of nearly $1 billion — would have been borderline irrational," the court document said.
    © Reuters
    "Given a choice between assuming that Revlon had paid off the 2016 Term Loan early -- as borrowers sometimes do -- and assuming that Citibank or Revlon had mistakenly transferred over $900 million -- something no bank may have ever done before (and may never do again) -- it would have been borderline irrational to choose the latter," the judge said.

    The judge also pointed to his previous ruling from a 1991 case stating a New York law where “banks making wire transfer payments to bona fide creditors bear a risk of loss should a mistake occur," he said.
    Having said that, the judge also said "the defendants are not yet necessarily free to do with the money what they want.”
    Nonetheless, it’s quite hilarious to see that even Banks can make mistakes when it comes to making bank transfers in the digital payments age. While we may make mistakes in transferring a few thousands of rupees, transferring half a billion dollars is a different story. We wouldn’t be surprised to see if someone lost their job at the banking firm for causing one of the "biggest blunders in banking history.”

    Dia Mirza and businessman Vaibhav Rekhi exchanged vows in an intimate ceremony on Monday and photos from the wedding ceremony have gone viral on the internet. However, it was one photo from the ceremony that Dia shared on her Instagram that has been grabbing headlines. In the photo, a priestess (female pundit) can be seen conducting the wedding rituals and chanting mantras.
    Sharing the photo, she wrote the caption, “Love is a full-circle that we call home. And what a miracle it is to hear its knock, open the door, and be found by it. Sharing this moment of completion and joy with you..my extended family. May all puzzles find their missing pieces, May all hearts heal, and may the miracle of love continue to unfold all around us #ThankYouPreeta #SunsetKeDiVaNe.”

    For many people following Dia on Instagram, it was surely a rare sight to see a priestess chanting the mantras and they called it the true feminism and the real women power.

    Kangana Ranaut recently took to her Twitter account to share with her fans her transformation pictures from Thalaivi and Dhaakad, her two upcoming films. 

    While the photos called for praise, the matter soon turn a rather narcissistic turn when Kangana compared herself to the likes of Meryl Streep and Gal Gadot. 
    But she didn't stop just there. 
    You may think it’s strange to find solace in conflict,you may think it’s not possible to fall in love with the sound of the clash of swords,for you BATTLEFIELD might just be ugly reality but for the one who is born to FIGHT there is no other place in this world where she belongs. pic.twitter.com/FLToSOqUN9
    — Kangana Ranaut (@KanganaTeam) February 16, 2021
     A few hours later, Kangana shared an article in which Hollywood stunt director Nick Powell had allegedly claimed she is better at stunts than none other than Tom Cruise. 
    And just to take it up a notch she said, "I am better at stunts than Tom Cruise''. 
    Kangana Ranaut tweeted, "Ha ha ha bahut pareshaan hain librus, yeh Dekho renowned action director of Brave heart and many legendary Hollywood action films said I am better than Tom Cruise when it comes to action ...Hahahahaha bechare librus aur tadpo." 
    Ha ha ha bahut pareshaan hain librus, yeh Dekho renowned action director of Brave heart and many legendary Hollywood action films said I am better than Tom Cruise when it comes to action ...
    Hahahahaha bechare librus aur tadpo. https://t.co/pVYxZhYUOM
    — Kangana Ranaut (@KanganaTeam) February 9, 2021
    In the article Powell says, "I have worked with the likes of Russell Crowe, Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt, but she gave me the unique experience in which an actress was leading the pack. There were times when she pulled off smoother stunts than Tom Cruise." 

    Soon, when this tweet by Kangana went viral, people on social media were shocked by the comparison.

    — Aman Khan (@Gauche_Aman) February 15, 2021 Now, Kangana has reacted to a tweet that read "Meme fest on Twitter after Kangana Ranaut claims of being a better stunt performer than Tom Cruise." 
    In an attempt to clear the air, Kangana pointed out that she did not compare herself with the Mission Impossible star, but it was Hollywood stunt director Nick Powell who did. 
    "I never claimed, Nick Powell one of the biggest stunt directors in the world did .... sending a hug and some burnol," she said in reply to the tweet.

    Well. Looks like it is some clarification...of sorts.
