    Unless you have been living under a rock, you’d probably already know that Neha Dhupia is among the most trolled and abused celebrities online. And now finally she has opened up about her experiences. 
    In fact, Neha is still targeted by many trolls for a comment she once made on popular reality TV show Roadies, a few years ago.
    Speaking about what she has to suffer on a daily basis, Neha said it shocks her how casually people threaten and demean her online. She added that she has found the ability to dissociate from it all.
    "I don't understand how trolls can abuse someone's wife or daughter and then go share a meal with their own family," she said in an interview to SpotboyE. "I think I have the ability to attach and detach. So I deal with it in my own way, but I don't think it's right. And to a great extent, it accounts for emotional abuse and that's not right," she added.
    Here’s how it all started
    Neha faced a barrage of attack from trolls when she spoke on adultery and violence against women on an episode of Roadies Revolution. Speaking about it, she had earlier said in an interview to Bollywood Hungama, “I love every bit of being on the show. It comes with its own reputation but this year the show is called Roadies Revolution where you are trying to make a big difference through it. Sometimes, in the light of doing television which is reality, a lot of things are said because you feel strongly about it and there was one such incident.”
    "Unfortunately, a small chunk of what I said was kind of highlighted, whereas what I was trying to imply was the fact that under no circumstances is domestic violence, okay and therefore I think only half of it was picked up and I was trolled extensively for it as I am still being. Honestly, whatever I had to say I took time and put it out in a statement and I still stand by it,” she had added. 
    Neha had said that while adultery was a moral issue, equally applicable to a male or a female, physical violence against a woman is an absolute no.
    Agree with Neha? Tell us what you think in the space below.

    The Apple Watch is now the most popular smartwatch in the world and fourth most popular product from Apple’s portfolio behind the iPhone, iPad and Mac. A new report by Above Avalon details that there are now over 100 million Apple Watch users as of December 2020. The Cupertino giant added over 30 million new users just in 2020 alone. 
    “It took five-and-a-half years for the Apple Watch installed base to surpass 100 million people ... the installed base's growth trajectory has not been constant or steady over the years. Instead, the number of people entering the Apple Watch installed base continues to accelerate. The 30 million new people that began wearing an Apple Watch in 2020 nearly exceeded the number of new Apple Watch wearers in 2015, 2016, and 2017 combined” the report said.

    In comparison, no other smartwatch or wearables manufacturer comes even close with Samsung at the second position. In a recent report by Statista, Apple Watch currently holds 55% of the global wearables market while Samsung only has a 13.9% share. The third notable player in the wearable market happens to be Garmin with 8% share of the global market. 

    Even though the Apple Watch is the current leader of the wearables market, only 10% of iPhone users currently wear an Apple Watch. 100 million users is still a massive number as it is now the fourth most popular product by Apple and will soon overtake the Mac if its adoption continues to accelerate. 
    “At 100 million users, the Apple Watch is Apple's fourth-largest product installed base behind the iPhone, iPad, and Mac. At the current sales trajectory, the Apple Watch installed base will surpass the Mac installed base in 2022. Surpassing the iPad installed base will take longer and likely be measured in a number of years based on the current sales trajectory.”

    The Apple Watch Series 6 launched in October last year with new features such as SpO2 and sleep tracking. The new Apple Watch Series 6 can also detect if you are washing your hands automatically. A much needed feature during the COVID-19 pandemic that most smartwatches don’t currently offer. 

    Apple’s smartwatch has also been credited in the past for saving many lives thanks to its health-focused features. You can read about some of the most recent instances where Apple Watch managed to save someone’s life by detecting a health problem or by detecting a fall. Earlier this month, the Apple Watch also helped in detecting seven blood clots as the user experienced below normal heart rates. 
    Much like every year, Apple is expected to launch the 7th generation of the Apple Watch this fall with improved blood glucose monitoring and other upgrades.

    The Indian government banned Tik Tok due to the app’s ties with China but desi people missed the platform a lot. The pulling down of Tik Tok also gave a chance for many similar clone like apps to surface on Indian app stores.
    Now, a 17-year-old Indian-UK teenager has developed a TikTok clone that she named ‘Theek Thaak’.
    Yes, you read that right! The app’s logo has a tricolor outline which signifies its Indian origin. In an interview with Indian Express, the teenager expressed that she wanted to create an Indian version of TikTok since the original app did not represent the diverse culture of our country properly.

    However, for developing an app of this stature, basic coding knowledge wouldn’t work and she only had basic coding knowledge. So, she enrolled herself into a woman-centric development team and developed the app. Also, as she is a minor, the app store account is named after her mother.

    Not only this, she also developed the terms and privacy policy after referring to what other companies had done with their apps. The app was developed sometime in January last year and now the first version of the app surfaced in November 2020.
    You can edit videos in the app along with the ability to upload videos and also choose to stream them according to the user’s choice. It also comes with a ‘Theekcode scanner as well as geopolitical reactions’.
    The app is available in eight Indian languages such as like Gujarati and Tamil and she hopes to add more languages to the app in the future.

    The full version of the app is not released yet and it will be out in March this year which would also include and support eight regional languages and will feature ‘Theekmojis’ and stories.

    Isn’t this awesome? Let us know in the comments section below!

    If there is a list out there for actors who age like fine wine, Nagarjuna would definitely be a strong contender. He looks unbelievably young for his age and has over the years managed to look even better. It is almost like Akkineni Nagarjuna is blessed with genes that, over time, make him look even finer. After looking at Nagarjuna, no one will be able to guess that he's 61 currently. But even though he's in his 60s, we firmly believe that he doesn't look a day older than 35.
    © Viral Bhayani
    Even the way he wears his grey hair strands like a trophy on his stache is rather admirable. He maintains a signature chevron stache on his face, which also complements his facial structure and gives his face an added definition. His hairstyle usually ranges from mid-length to long and often depends on the role he's playing for the film that he's shooting for. These hairstyles, too are carefully designed to suit his face type and also signature stache at the same time. But it's not just about his grooming sensibilities that are at play here, it also the commendable way he styles his outfits when he steps out.

    Nagarjuna can get creative with his outfits in his own way. Case in point, a recent outfit he wore when he was in Mumbai that caught our attention. Take a look at the outfit here:
    © Viral Bhayani
    He had stepped out wearing a solid grey full sleeves vest with a pair of crisp blue jeans. He further completed the outfit with a pair of loafers with a metal toe cap embedded at the end of it. The toe cap was made of metallic spikes that were clearly sharp. We wonder if this metallic toe cap was there to enhance the design or to add more support to the silhouette. Take a close look at the loafers here:

    It is apparent that whatever the function of the metallic toe cap with spikes might be, it is a definite style statement regardless.

    Karan Johar certainly knows how to make a fashion statement wherever he goes. He knows the brands he wears pretty well and is always seen from head-to-toe wearing some zany pieces from some high-end luxury brands. There was an instance when he was seen carrying a playful backpack from Louis Vuitton, the cost of which left us stunned.

    This isn't the only time when Karan was seen in extravagant pieces. Be it his airport looks or red carpet game, he usually turns up in attention-grabbing ensembles, accessories and sneakers. Even his casual outing looks cannot be missed. Case in point, his recent casual appearance, when he was seen wearing an insane pair of sneakers, something that we've literally never seen a celebrity sport before.

    Take a look.

    Karan is seen wearing Nike's Offline Black Menta shoes. These shoes have flashy performance silhouette and the style gets all the attention for its understated comfort. The beaded insoles infused in this style massage the feet while walking. Furthermore the padded upper comes with soft, bootie-like construction. Apart from that, these shoes let the feet breathe since these are open from the back.

    While we have always seen Karan wear such fashionable items with a hefty price tag, surprisingly, these shoes are worth only Rs 9,995. This sounds like a good deal, considering that most of the things he owns are above a lakh.

    His outfit too is super impressive. The oversized Drew hoodie has become some sort of fashion staple in B-town. Karan's choice of going for a rather oversized hoodie adds to the athleisure style he is trying to pull here. The way he has paired the hoodie is also quite interesting. The oversized joggers, seem to be a perfect way to make the outfit scream fashion.

    Even Karan's mask is not as simple. The quirky camouflage print, in the vibrant colour palette, is blending well with his look. The shoes are no doubt a statement piece, despite being so affordable.
    All the elements of his outfit, make one thing pretty explicit is the fact that the man is all about decking up in some dope silhouettes.

    She also expressed how her parents mortgaged whatever little jewellery to pay Manya’s exam fee. Miss India said about Manya Singh in a post shared last month, "She believes that education is the strongest weapon one can have with themselves at all times."

    Her mother also expressed, “She has won the Best Student award during her HSC. She has struggled a lot in life till date, from not being able to pay her school fees, not being able to afford books, and being neglected by her classmates for being an auto driver's daughter.”
    Manya also said, "I've walked hours to reach places so I could save the rickshaw fare.”

    Earlier this week, Twitter gave in to the Indian government’s demands of blocking or deactivating accounts identified by the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology(MeitY). A report published by Medianama shows 62 accounts that were removed from the platform in India that includes some prominent figures. The list was disclosed by Twitter to Lumen Database and it includes a Rajya Sabha Member of Parliament, politicians from the Aam Aadmi Party and the Indian National Congress.

    India’s MeitY ordered Twitter to deactivate problematic accounts in the country “in the interest of sovereignty and integrity of India.” It is worth pointing out that these accounts are only inaccessible in India and are still viewable for the rest of the world.

    “We have withheld a portion of the accounts identified in the blocking orders under our Country Withheld Content policy within India only. These accounts continue to be available outside of India. Because we do not believe that the actions we have been directed to take are consistent with Indian law, and, in keeping with our principles of defending protected speech and freedom of expression,” Twitter said in a blog post earlier this week. The social media giant also said that the platform blocked over 500 accounts that were engaged in  “platform manipulation and spam.”

    The first match of the India-England series did not go according to the Indian cricket team’s hopes and plans as the Joe Root-led side dominated the hosts in both the innings and won the clash by a massive 227-run margin.
    Got a message for @Root66?

    258 runs in the match
    That sensational catch 🤲
    All in his 100th Test match

    🇮🇳 #INDvENG 󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 pic.twitter.com/aCIlx6gdKU
    — England Cricket (@englandcricket) February 9, 2021 Having won the historic red-ball series on Australian soil, Virat Kohli and his Men in Blue would have expected to funnel down all the confidence and enthusiasm into the first game but a dull pitch, and allegedly faulty Test cricket balls led to a disappointing five-day stint at the Chepauk stadium for most of the Indian squad.
    Keeping in mind the fact that the next match will also be taking place at the same Chennai stadium, here’s a prediction of India’s Playing XI for the second Test:
    1. Rohit SharmaI Wass a bigg fan of ROHIT SHARMA but Abb Mujhe laga hai kii isske bass ka kuch bhi nhi hai virat isse bhot bhadia wo fans ko bhot kum dissappoint karta hai YE tho lodu hai 20 innings me sirf ek match me hi runn bnata hai. iss Ka waqt khatam hogya hai isse retire Ho jana chahiye.
    — Aditya (@Aditya77214100) February 7, 2021
    Despite failing to score more than 12 runs in either of the innings in the first Test, veteran opening batsman Rohit Sharma might get yet another opportunity to prove his mettle in the longest format of the game before skipper Kohli starts to look for other options in players like Mayank Agarwal and KL Rahul.
    2. Shubman GillAlthough Gill was not as effective against the Englishmen as he was Down Under during his Test debut, a half-century off the 21-year-old’s blade should ensure him another opportunity to shine at the top of the order.
    3. Cheteshwar Pujara View this post on Instagram
    He might be slow and eat up hundreds of deliveries before reaching the 50-run mark, Cheteshwar Pujara proved why he is the heart and soul of Indian Test cricket during the Australia series. Gone for cheap in the second innings of the England clash, Puraja’s 73-run performance made him one of the more effective batsmen against threats like James Anderson and Jack Leach in the first innings.
    4. Virat KohliHaving lost the previous four Tests as the captain of the Indian squad and not being able to stitch together a decent innings to drive his side to victory for a long time in red-ball cricket, Kohli is quickly sliding through the ranks as an elite Test batsman. The skipper, although tried his best to save the second innings at the Chepauk, lost his wicket to a rogue delivery by Ben Stokes. With a chip on his shoulder, a captain’s knock is long overdue.
    5. Ajinkya RahaneJust like Sanjay Manjrekar said, the captain in Ajinkya Rahane is great but the batsman in him is quickly becoming a big problem for his team. Other than the solitary century at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, Rahane is finding it difficult to stick to the crease for long. Unfortunately, the fall of wickets for the middle-order batsman came off a stunning catch by Root in the first and a blinder by Anderson in the second, making the case worse for himself. Much like Sharma, Rahane might have just this one match to prove his worth as a batter.
    6. Rishabh Pant View this post on Instagram
    Yes, he is volatile, unpredictable and not as effective of a wicket-keeper most would like, he was the team’s greatest weapon against the Australians and proved that he could play a big innings (not long, necessarily) to give his side a fighting chance or maybe even lead them to victory. Pant stays secured at the number six spot.
    7. Washington SundarIn the first three innings of his Test career, Washington Sundar has made a solid case for himself as a genuine all-rounder for the squad and not just a replacement for the injured Ravindra Jadeja. Playing once again on his home ground, Sundar’s prowess on either side of the pitch will allow him the opportunity to show up in the Indian jersey once again.
    8. Ravichandran Ashwin © AP
    One of the most integral parts of the Indian Test side, six-wicket haul in the second innings of the Chepauk Test in addition to his ability to hold the pitch on one side and hit big shots on occasion makes Ashwin an indispensable unit of the team. He got struck on his wrist during the second innings off a stinger by Jofra Archer and was in a lot of pain. If his injury isn’t severe, he will definitely return to the side.

    9. Axar PatelThe dedicated spinner’s spot in the team created a lot of controversy in the first match when Shahbaz Nadeem was picked over Kuldeep Yadav and it seems as if the chinaman will have to wait even longer before he can play another international Test for Team India. Patel was Kohli’s first choice for days before the series had begun but was sidelined due to injury. However, he is now fit and ready to join the squad.
    10. Ishant SharmaAlthough scalping just three wickets in the first match, Test veteran Sharma remained one of the most economical bowlers for Kohli in Chennai. The consistency, pace and bowlers offered by 6’4’’ pacer continues to make him an indispensable member of the red-ball squad for India.
