    Some kids are extremely cool and know exactly what they are talking about. One such kid made us proud when he made a complaint against a man for getting penalized a sum of Rs 62,000 for cutting a tree at Saidabad in Hyderabad.

    The class 8th boy called the Telangana Forest Department’s toll-free number (1800 425 5364) to report the axing of a neem tree which is around 40 years old.
    A Class-VIII boy’s complaint led to a man getting penalised Rs 62,075 for chopping down a neem tree at Saidabad in #Hyderabad

    The boy acted quickly and as he was environmentally aware he dialed the toll-free number and informed that a tree was being cut which resulted in the man paying a hefty fine of Rs 62,000.

    According to New Indian Express, the officials responded immediately and fined G Santhosh Reddy for cutting the tree where he was constructing a house. Hyderabad Forest Range Officer Ch Venkataiah Goud said, “At 4 am, the boy called our toll-free number and informed that a chopped tree was being loaded into a vehicle to be moved away.”
     “The staff that answered the call informed me and I also spoke with the boy. He refused to reveal his name and other details but said he was a member of the Green Brigade,” he added.
    Here’s what people on the internet have to say about the incident-

    — Malakpet Diaries (@MalakpetD) February 8, 2021 The Telangana government had directed the schools to create ‘Green Brigades’ with students and teachers to protect the fauna and flora planted as part of the scheme.
    After receiving the complaint, Goud and the other Forest Department Staff rushed to the spot where they found the tree cutting equipment. They also found that the man who cut the tree dialed to follow the due procedure and also did not take any permission to do the same.
    What do you think of the woke kid? Let us know in the comments section below!

    Ranveer Singh has a rather coloured history of wearing some of the most colourful and downright bonkers outfits anyone has ever seen.
    © Instagram/ranveersingh
    When it comes to pushing the envelope in fashion, literally no one does it better than him. 

    From wearing an outfit that was inspired by athleisure from the 1990s to wearing an outfit that legit looked like the uniform of a trapeze artist, the man has done it all.
    © Instagram/ranveersingh
    Recently, Ranveer wore a baby pink tracksuit that was just as zany and quirky, as anything we have seen him wear, ever. However, the watch and the sneakers that he was wearing were truly the stand-out pieces from his ensemble.
    © Instagram/ranveersingh
    Ranveer was seen wearing the Vanguard Gravity from Franck Muller, the Swiss luxury watchmakers. Saying that the watch is a piece to behold, would be a gross understatement. 
    © Instagram/ranveersingh
    The particular watch that he’s wearing seems to be from their Yachting line and it truly is a horological masterpiece. 

    It comes with an in-house movement and has an off-centred tourbillon. The case has a gun-metal finish, which makes it even more appealing. 
    © Instagram/ranveersingh
    The watch normally retails for about $123,000 or roughly Rs 90 Lakhs, but that’s before taxes and import duties if you’re importing it to India. 

    Add in your regular customs and other taxes, and you’re looking at a price tag of over Rs 1.25 Crores, easily.
    © Franck Muller
    Coming to the sneakers that we see Ranveer wear, they come courtesy of a rather unique collaboration between Reebok & Adidas. 

    Called the Adidas x Reebok ZX Fury, the sneakers combine elements and design features from Reebok’s Instapump Fury, and Adidas’ ZX 8000 sneakers.
    © Reebox X Adidas
    The ZX Fury has a mesh base layer borrowed directly from the ZX line, which is reinforced with the Fury’s pumpable neoprene overlays. 

    The toe-box features a ZX-inspired suede mudguard, while a similar heel counter at the rear. 
    © Reebox X Adidas
    Although the sneakers are yet to be officially launched in India, it is speculated that they will be retailing for about $150-200. 

    So, expect that the final price in India, inclusive of all taxes and everything, will be under Rs 20,000.

    Though not the most expensive, this quite certainly is one of the quirkiest pairs of sneakers we have seen this year.

    Ever since the standoff between the Indian Government and Twitter due to the ongoing farmers' protest, Indian alternative ‘Koo’ has started to garner more users in the country. Even though the app was launched 10 months ago, it has started to see newfound traction ever since the Indian Government and Twitter have been at odds. 
    The Koo app is very much like Twitter i.e. a micro-blogging social media app that was developed by Aparameya Radhakrishna and Mayank Bidawatka. As of now, the app is available in multiple Indian languages i.e. Hindi, Telugu, Kannada, Bengali, Tamil, Malayalam, Gujarati, Marathi, Punjabi, Oriya and Assamese.
    Focus on Indian Languages  © KooApp
    Unlike Twitter, Koo’s unique selling point is having support for regional languages which gives it an advantage over Twitter already. While English is one of India’s official languages, over a billion people cannot speak, read or write the language fluently. Having said that, with a growing smartphone market, Koo has the unique advantage of offering users access to social media in their native language. 

    What is Koo all about? © Kooapp
    If you navigate the official Google PlayStore page, Koo describes itself as an app "built for Indians to share their views in their mother tongue and have meaningful discussions. Discussions are around interesting topics. It empowers people to express their thoughts in Indian languages with a strong-knit local Indian community," the description said.

    Who all are on Koo?I am now on Koo.

    Connect with me on this Indian micro-blogging platform for real-time, exciting and exclusive updates.

    Let us exchange our thoughts and ideas on Koo.

    Well, many ministers and government agencies have already taken the leap with an account including Union Minister Piyush Goyal, Ministry of Electronics and IT, MyGov, Digital India, India Post, NIC, NIELIT, SAMEER, UMANG app, Common Services Centre, STPI, Digilocker, CMET, CDAC and others. 
    India’s Communications and Electronics and Information Technology Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad has also been using the platform as of August 2020.  
    What all can one do on Koo?  © MensXP/Akshay Bhalla
    Much like Twitter, users can express their opinions in their native language on a range of topics and converse with people they are connected with. The feed can also be viewed in all supported Indian languages and even has its own trending section like Twitter. The account lets you add a profile picture, post links, pictures, and polls. Each post also has a limit of 400 characters which is considerably higher than Twitter’s 280 characters.  

    How Can One Register  Every Koo account is linked to a valid phone number where the app sends a one time password during the initial registration process. The app can be found on the Google PlayStore and Apple App Store. Alternatively, the micro-blogging site can also be used via the web by logging in on kooapp.com.

    The Spider-Man series in the Marvel Cinematic Universe has been through a lot. 

    The custody battle between Sony and Disney over the comic book character had everyone on the edge of their seats, when it was announced that Tom Holland's Spidey was out of the MCU.

    Moreover, an incident that occurred in December almost confirmed the exciting cameos when the official YouTube channel of Sony Pictures Latin America uploaded a video asking fans which version of Spider-Man they liked best.

    Reportedly, the now-deleted video said that the fans would no longer have to choose between the three as “ in the multiverse of Marvel, anything is possible and in Spider-Man 3, it is very possible that you will see all of them.”

    Eight years and 140 million units later, GTA V is still amongst the highest-earning franchise of all time video games, movies, tv shows, books or any other form of media for that matter. In a recent CNBC interview by parent company Take-Two Interactive’s CEO Strauss Zelnick, it was revealed that GTA V is selling better than ever with about 20 million units sold in 2020 alone.

    “We’re grateful for the incredible work that Rockstar Games has done with Grand Theft Auto and Grand Theft Auto Online,” Zelnick said in the interview. “It’s absolutely amazing that Grand Theft Auto has sold more units in calendar year 2020 than it did in any year since its original release in 2013. It’s just extraordinary.”

    GTA V had surpassed all forms of media as the highest-earning franchise in history two years ago and it seems like it won’t be slowing down. GTA V’s revenue comes not only from the sale of the game but also from microtransactions the game offers for its online multiplayer.

    Despite launching eight years ago, GTA V is still amongst the best selling titles of 2020. It is worth pointing out that tracking firms like the NDP group do not take digital sales into account for rankings any more. Having said that, it wasn’t surprising to see GTA V achieve big numbers at a time when most of the world was seeking at-home entertainment during the pandemic. 

    The game managed to attract new users and previously dormant players reactivated their accounts as well, a trend which Take-Two expects to continue post-pandemic. GTA V first released in September 2013 for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 and is now available on the PS4, Xbox One, PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X.

    GTA V is now the second most selling game of all time, running closely behind Minecraft. However, with the current momentum, it is quite possible that GTA V might take over the popular sandbox game in 2021 if trends continue.

    Priyanka Chopra Jonas, in her memoir Unfinished, has revealed quite a few things about her life that are worth reading about. 

    From how life was when she was in school to how things changed after she became Miss World in 2000, the 38-year-old actor has opened up about it all in her book. 
    © Instagram/missworldupdate
    In a rather brave move, she also talked about her botched nose surgery, which took a major toll on her self-esteem. 

    In 2001, PeeCee had a “lingering head cold” which she assumed was just a “very bad sinus infection”. But, later it was diagnosed that the actor had a polyp in her nasal cavity and she had to undergo polypectomy to get it removed. 
    © Instagram
    However, unfortunately, the polypectomy went wrong.

    Here's an excerpt from her memoir: 
    “While shaving off the polyp, the doctor also accidentally shaved the bridge of my nose and the bridge collapsed. When it was time to remove the bandages and the condition of my nose was revealed, Mom and I were horrified. My original nose was gone. My face looked completely different. I wasn’t me anymore.” 
    © Instagram
    Priyanka was deeply affected by how different she looked after the surgery. She added, “Every time I looked in the mirror, a stranger looked back at me, and I didn’t think my sense of self or my self-esteem would ever recover from the blow.” 

    Things became difficult for the actor when people started calling her ‘Plastic Chopra’. 
    Finally, the Sky Is Pink actor got several corrective surgeries done and made peace with a ‘slightly different’ version of herself.

    She wrote, “While it took a few years of seeing a stranger gazing back at me every time I looked in the mirror, I’ve gotten accustomed to this face. Now when I look in the mirror, I am no longer surprised; I’ve made peace with this slightly different me. This is my face. This is my body. I might be flawed, but I am me.”

    Priyanka Chopra’s memoir Unfinished hit the stands on Tuesday. Looking forward to reading it?

    OnePlus is expected to launch the new OnePlus 9 and the OnePlus 9 Pro in the coming weeks. We already know quite a few things about these phones thanks to all the leaks and rumors. Now, we just came across yet another leak that seemingly confirms a couple of interesting details.
    According to a reliable tipster Max Jambor, both the OnePlus 9 and the OnePlus  9 Pro will be equipped with a 4,500 mAh battery. Max has also confirmed that the phone will also come with a charger in the box.

    — Max Jambor (@MaxJmb) February 9, 2021
    Honestly, we think a lot of people will be relieved to find out that these phones will indeed come with a charger in the box. A lot of manufacturers are now thinking of not including a charger in the box, and we're glad that OnePlus isn't one of them.
    This, by the way, isn't the first time we're hearing about the OnePlus 9 getting a 4,500 mAh battery. An earlier report had also confirmed that the vanilla model would get a 4,500 mAh battery. In fact, it was reported that the OnePlus 9 will also support 30W wireless charging and 65W wired charging. If not the regular OnePlus 9, we expect at least the Pro model to support these charging features.
    © MensXP/ Akshay Bhalla
    And if we're looking at 65W wired charging, then we think OnePlus will most definitely bundle a fast-charger capable of doing that speed in the box as well. So it is safe to say that a 65W charger will most definitely be bundled with the phone.

    We really hope a lot of manufacturers won't follow Apple's lead and ditch the in-box charger. Samsung was the first one to do it and we hope it'll be the only one to ditch this accessory. 
    As of now, there's no official confirmation from OnePlus about the OnePlus 9 series' release. We're expecting the phones to come out in the next few weeks and we're hoping to see some teasers for the devices soon. We'll have more to talk about the phones once we have them, so stay tuned.

    According to official inquiries that took place, it was found out that someone who works at the airport was supposed to remove the gold from the aircraft. But that didn’t happen so the passenger left the gold in the restroom.

    Also, earlier, in another incident, customs officials recovered 1.01 kg gold from a passenger who came from Dubai by Fly Dubai flight FZ 8517 at the Chennai airport on Sunday.

    According to the officials, the accused was named Sithik and belonged to Ramanathapuram. He was intercepted at the exit of the airport. According to reports, "On personal search, two bundles of gold paste were found concealed in his rectum. On extraction, 416 grams of gold valued at Rs.19.9 lakhs was recovered and seized.”

    As per an official release, on rummaging of an Indigo flight, three rectangular heavy pieces covered in the black adhesive tape were recovered from a hollow pipe under a seat inside the aircraft.

    After the officials cut open the pieces, six gold bars each weighing 100 grams were recovered. The recovered bars also had a foreign marking and they were seized as unclaimed gold under Customs Act.

    Ganapath is scheduled to be released in 2022. 
    We are totally excited about this one. What about you?
