Apple's iPhones including the new iPhone 12 series will be available at a discounted price during the upcoming Republic day sale. These are probably the best time to grab these iPhones in India because they'll be available at their lowest price.
The iPhone 12 Mini will be available for as low as Rs 48,900 during the sale after all the discounts and trade-in offers. It's the lowest price we've seen for the phone so far. The vanilla iPhone 12 will be available for Rs 61,900 whereas the higher-end models will cost a little more.
Β© YouTube/Marques Brownlee
The iPhone 12 Pro and the iPhone 12 Pro Max will cost Rs 1,02,900 and Rs 1,12,900. The trade-in price may vary depending on the phone that you are trying to exchange but we think you'll still get a solid price at the end.
We saw similar discounts being offered last year as well, so we know this is one of the best times to buy a new iPhone. In case you can splurge on the iPhone 12 series, then you can check out the iPhone 11. It's also getting a cheaper price and can be bought for just Rs 37,900.
If you are looking for something that's even cheaper and compact, then we think you should check out the iPhone SE (2020). It'll be available for Rs 20,900. Lastly, there's the iPhone XR which will be available for Rs 28,900.
Β© YouTube/Marques Brownlee
The prices mentioned above in the story are for the base variants of each phone, so it goes without saying that you'll have to shell out more if you are looking to add more storage.
As is the case with these sales, the phones will be available in limited quantities and they'll sell out almost instantly. So we suggest you keep your eyes peeled for the sale to start and be one of the first ones to grab them. Besides iPhones, a lot of other Android phones will also be available at a discounted price during the sale. We'll make a separate list of phones on sale very soon, so stay tuned.
All these phones will be available across both Amazon and Flipkart during the sale, so keep an eye.Good luck trying to grab one of these phones.

Sahil Khan rose to fame with comedy movies like Excuse Me and Style back in the 2000s. The movie also had Sharman Joshi in the lead and both the actors, with their brilliant acting skills, ventured into Bollywood. While the latter continued to be a part of Bollywood, Sahil left his acting career and opted for an alternate career.

Β© Viral Bhayani
Sahil is acing the monochromatic look here, which seems to be a good sartorial example for the airport. We have seen many celebrities nail this trend and Sahil too looks good in it. He has paired an oversized leather jacket over a hi-neck T-shirt. He has teamed it with black pants, that has a side slit. If you also notice, his pants have diamond studs on the pockets at the back. This elevates the overall aesthetic of the pair and it doesn't look basic anymore.
Β© Viral Bhayani
Overall the look, despite being understated, has striking elements, which makes the ensemble look dope indeed, according to us.
In all, even though Sahil doesn't make a lot of appearances, we hope that we get to see more of him. Keep'em coming!

In 2021, as consumers, we are becoming more aware of what goes into the product that we use on our skin. In fact, more people have started reading the back labels of packages than ever before. More than ever, we have an understanding, that in order to get the best skin, we need to know what we treat our skin with or what product we lather-up our face with,
In fact, even state departments like the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has banned around 30 chemicals for use in beauty and grooming products. This explains the ever-growing demand for 'clean' or ''natural' grooming products. But how can one be certain that the product that is claiming to be clean is actually clean?
Clean products, by definition, are nontoxic, often plant-based, and safe for humans, and not toxic for the environment. This directly means steering clear of certain ingredients when it comes to your grooming products, these include:
Parabens: Infamous for the reputation of being 'endocrine disruptors,' they mimic estrogen inside the body, which can cause hormonal and reproductive damage.
Β© iStock
Phthalates: A compound that helps preserve fragrances, but has been infamously linked to hormonal disruption and reproductive damage.Β Β
Β© iStock
Fragrance: There's a reason most beauty bloggers like us to be wary of scented products. Many scented grooming products use synthetics to create these aromas. This is precisely the reason why one should steer clear of scented products.
Refined petroleum: The production of refined petroleum is inarguably harmful to the planet and the use has been linked to cancer as well.Β
Β© iStock
Chemical sunscreens: Toxic ingredients you need to be on the lookout for include oxybenzone and avobenzone and steep percentages of octisalate, octocrylene, homosalate, or octinoxate.Β
They also have the reputation to disrupt both estrogen and testosterone production and besides that, theyβre extremely harmful to marine life, also.Β
Β© iStock
Sulfates: Most products that form a lather when emulsified with hands have sulfates. Usually labelled, SLS and SLES (sodium lauryl sulfate and sodium lauryl ether sulfate).Β
Built over time, they can prove to be carcinogenic. Besides, a sulfate-free grooming routine is better for your hair and skin.)

Despite playing with a battered and bruised line-up which was further weakened by the notable absence of key players including Virat Kohli, the Indian cricket team left Australia and the naysayers shell-shocked after pulling off a sensational three-wicket win in the 4th Test at the Gabba.
For a team that was bowled out for a mere 36 runs in the second innings during their eight-wicket loss at the Adelaide Oval, Ajinkya Rahane-led India showed commendable fighting spirit to secure a 2-1 win in the four-match Test series. Struggling to field a fit playing XI, India were aided by the young and inexperienced players who stepped up big time Down Under.
Incredible moment for India as they lift the trophy #AUSvIND

The likes of Thangarasu Natarajan, Shardul Thakur and Washington Sundar took three wickets apiece to restrict the hosts to 369 runs in the first innings. In reply, India found themselves in a spot of bother but Sundar (62) and Thakur (67) stepped up with the bat to save them the blushes. Mohammed Siraj (5-73) and Thakur (4-61) ran through the Australian batting order to ensure they couldn't score more than 294 runs in the second innings.
Chasing 328 runs to eventually pull off a commendable win, India were aided by Shubman Gill (91) and Cheteshwar Pujara (56) early on. But, it was Rishabh Pant's unbeaten 89-run knock that powered India to a sensational three-wicket win, leaving the hosts red-faced at the Gabba. For someone who has been criticised for the lack of maturity, Pant showed great courage and produced one of his finest batting performances to get his side over the line in the dying moments of the final session at the Gabba.
The Greatest Test series win of all time ... Well done #India you have just shown the way for England to get back those Ashes back later in the year ... https://t.co/eWKaKFfJ41

India's remarkable win also brought an end to Australia's 32-year-old unbeaten run at the 'Fortress Gabba'. And, the fact that the Rahane brigade sealed a 2-1 series win without the likes of Virat Kohli, Mohammed Shami, Ravindra Jadeja, Ravichandran Ashwin and Jasprit Bumrah at various points, further sums up their massive achievement.
Their memorable triumph was hailed by cricket pundits and fans alike on social media. The BCCI chief Sourav Ganguly, too, showered praise on the young Indian side for their stellar effort. Taking to Twitter, the BCCI president also announced a staggering Rs 5 crore bonus for the Indian team for retaining the Border-Gavaskar Trophy.
Just a remarkable win...To go to Australia and win a test series in this way ..will be remembered in the history of indian cricket forever ..Bcci announces a 5 cr bonus for the team ..The value of this win is beyond any number ..well done to every member of the touring party..

Here is your day's wholesome and inspiring story to make you feel good about someone getting to live their dreams and overcoming difficulties to become successful.Β
Binesh Balan from Kerala started doing manual jobs when he was young in his native Kolichal in Kasaragod, to overcome poverty.Β
Belonging to the Mavilan tribal community, he has had the most inspiring journey, from Kerala to Europe.Β
Β© TNIE
Now, the 29-year-old has developed an open banking software as a researcher at the University of Amsterdam in The Netherlands.Β
Overcoming all the tough situations life threw at him, he made his dreams come true and it was all because of his sheer perseverance and hard work.
Talking to The New Indian Express,Β he said, "From language, college admission, and getting a scholarship, there was no shortage of obstacles. But I was able to overcome the hurdles with the help of a few enlightened minds."
Β© Reddif
He went on, "Right from my early years, I had a deep passion for computers and used to do programming. Hence I thought of startups. Last year, with the help of a colleague from Idukki I started working on a banking software which will cater to future generations. Now, it has been fully developed as an open banking software. The Fintech software will be called Reciprocity exchange or Rexchange."
Basically, what sets Rexchange apart is that it stores money value not in Indian Rupees but in a digital value called Reciprocity or Rv.Β
The account which keeps Rv is known as the Coop Bank Account Number (CBAN) and can store high denomination currency values like euro, dollar, and pound and can also be withdrawn in Indian Rupees.
Β© University of Amsterdam
Talking about his app, he said, "The app was launched a week ago and already 69 people have downloaded it. The value of Rv is decided by Live Rexchange Rate (LRR). LRR will rise as per the rise in the number of CBAN accounts."
His love for computers started off early when he used to travel 8kms to the nearest town of Rajapuram to play video games at an internet cafe when he was in class fourth. Three years later, he learned to develop basic programme language.
Β© Pexels
He said, "Though I managed to secure a pass in only one or two subjects in high school, I was an expert in computers. Even our teachers used to consult me."
He was able to go to the UK under a central government scholarship to study at the University of Sussex after completing his degree in Development Economics and obtaining an MBA.
About his time in the UK, he said, "I had to work as a cleaning boy from 4 am to 8 am in Sussex since the scholarship amount did not suffice."
Β© University of Sussex
Lastly, he had an extremely important point to make - "The approach of the Kerala civil society, state government, and NGOs towards tribal communities is deplorable. The general view is that tribals should learn from the other βcivilizedβ communities. But in my view, it was just the opposite."
Well, he's the living example of that. Kudos to this man and everything he's managed to achieve.

With the launch of the new Galaxy S21 series, Samsung became the first manufacturer to launch flagship phones in 2021. All three phones in the Galaxy S21 series will soon be available to buy in India. But ahead of their release, Samsung seems to have done something very unusual.
The company seems to have discontinued the Galaxy S20 series in India ahead of the Galaxy S21 series. According to 91mobiles, the Galaxy S20, Galaxy S20+, and the Galaxy S20 Ultra, all three phones appear to be out of stock on the official Samsung India website.
Β© YouTube/Marques Brownlee
These phones may or may not come back in stock considering the fact that the new phones are right around the corner. The Galaxy S20 FE is still available to buy though.
The official website lists the Galaxy S20 Ultra for Rs 86,999, and the Galaxy S20+ for Rs 54,999. The regular Galaxy S20 has been listed for Rs 59,499, which is higher than the Galaxy S20+. Lastly, the Galaxy S20 FE is now listed for Rs 40,990. There's no word about when those three phones will be back in stock, but you can click on the "Get Stock Alert" to be notified when they are back in stock.
While it's not surprising to see manufacturers discontinuing older series leading up to the release of its newer models, Samsung has never done it before, at least not this early on in its product cycle. It's probably due to the fact these phones received a lukewarm response in India, especially due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Also, the Galaxy S20 FE offered a better overall package at a better price too. Now, it remains to be seen how the customers will react to the new Galaxy S21 series that'll go on sale starting January 29. The new devices start at Rs 69,999.

Hereβs how much each model will cost -
Galaxy S21: Rs 69,999
Galaxy S21+: Rs 81,999
Galaxy S21 Ultra:Β Rs 1,05,999
Additionally, Samsung will also be selling some accessories alongside the new phones like the Galaxy Buds Pro. We'll have more to talk about these devices soon, so stay tuned.

While facing Australia in their own backyard is always an uphill battle, the task for India was made more difficult amid the lack of cricketing action due to the global pandemic. With fitness concerns and rusty form of players on mind, many had placed their money on the home side to come out on top in what was touted as 2020's biggest cricket fixture.
The Indian cricket team, too, didn't do themselves or their reputation any favour after losing two successive games before eventually enduring a 2-1 loss in the ODI series. Their dismal outing had further fuelled the chatter amongst naysayers, with Michael Vaughan even going on to claim that the Aussies will beat India in all formats convincingly.
Early call ... I think Australia will beat India this tour in all formats convincingly ... #AUSvIND
β Michael Vaughan (@MichaelVaughan) November 27, 2020
But, little did the former England captain know what was going to unfold in days to come. After losing two consecutive ODIs, India bounced back to win three matches (a ODI and two T20Is) on the trot to seal a 2-1 series win in the shortest format. A loss in the 1st Test did raise questions, but India fought back with grit and determination to pull off a 2-1 series win.

In what was arguably one of their finest performances overseas, India ended Australia's 32-year-old unbeaten record at the Gabba. India's Test series win amid notable absence of key players, including Virat Kohli, was befitting reply to all the naysayers who had earlier raised doubts on their chances to outperform the Australians.
Wow .. That has to go down as one of the greatest if not the greatest Test victory of all time !! Egg on my face over here in the UK .. but I love to see character & skill .. India have it in abundance .. btw @RealShubmanGill & @RishabhPant17 are future superstars ! #AUSvIND
β Michael Vaughan (@MichaelVaughan) January 19, 2021
Following a sensational turn of events at the Gabba, Vaughan, like others, had nothing praise for the Indian cricket team as he rued his premature prediction. "Wow..That has to go down as one of the greatest if not the greatest Test victory of all time !! Egg on my face over here in the UK..but I love to see character & skill..India have it in abundance..btw @RealShubmanGill & @RishabhPant17 are future superstars!," he tweeted.
But, despite his praise for Team India, cricket fans wasted no time in taking turns to troll Vaughan for his ludicrous prediction early in the series.
Michael Vaughan is waiting for the 5th test so that Australia can still win it 4-0.

Ever since FAU-G was first announced late last year after the ban of PUBG Mobile, we all knew that Akshay Kumar was involved with the game. He was actively promoting it online on his social media channels. Now, NCore Games has officially confirmed that the Bollywood actor was indeed a part of the development.
As noted by IGN India, Celebrities taking interest in video games is nothing new. But Akshay Kumar was apparently very active in terms of reviewing the builds and sharing feedback. Ganesh Hande, Co-Founder, and COO at Ncore Games. noted that he was very much involved in the process.
Β© NCore Games
βHe has been frequently reviewing the builds and sharing feedback so definitely yes, he was a part of the development,β he said. Additionally, the FAU-G anthem was also made by Kumar and his team, which is awesome. The same was confirmed by Ncore Founder and Chairman Vishal Gondal.
βHe said βI am going to make the anthem and give it to youβ,β recalls Gondal.Β Akshay Kumar gave them various feedbacks as to how the characters and weapons look. More interestingly, Akshay was also very keen to have a dog in the game.
Ncore games noted that the game won't have any dogs, at least at launch. But we won't be surprised to see them later in future builds of the game.
Β© NCore Games
FAU-G, for those of you who don't know, comes out on January 26. We're less than a week away from its official release and honestly can't wait to play it. There's a lot of hype surrounding the game and it has already surpassed over 4 million registrations online.
We can only imagine the number of downloads the game will see on the release date. Ncore Games has also indicated that a version of the game for low-end devices is on the way as well. On the release day, FAU-G will be available to play on iPhones, iPad, and Android devices. You can pre-register for the game on the Play Store right now, and the App Store listing will go live on the release date. Stay tuned for info on the game.
