    As the trial for Arnab Goswami’s TRP scam is being awaited to be held on 29th January, the nation is still fathoming the amount of information that has surfaced after Arnab Goswami’s Whatsapp chats with ex- CEO of BARC were recently shared on social media. Both these individuals are currently in a soup and are accused of rigging TRP numbers.  While the entire document is a very heavy file consisting of some meticulous conversations, some jolting information that has come to light includes Partho Dasgupta asking Arnab about “any progress on PMO?” and Goswami’s euphoria over the high TRP’s around the Pulwama attack. The chats suggest the journalist knew about the post-Pulwama strike plan in advance. 
    #ArnabChatGate | Part 1: Expose suggests how Republic TV founder Arnab Goswami was allegedly aware of India's 'strike plan' post-Pulwama terror strike. Opposition demands internal inquiry into alleged ‘leak’. Military experts question Goswami's 'indiscretion'.

    Other revelations include the two  talking about ‘ buying a judge’ , and suggests that the Balakot strike was probably an election campaign. These chats have invited the ire of the ‘aam admi’  who not only is dissing this behaviour but also questioning the credibility of the government and our judiciary system.
    And, here Arnab Goswami boasts of getting @PMOIndia ministers changed after meeting Modi. Gowswami not a “Dalal” PM? Third tranche of the chats pic.twitter.com/TT70IX5Krf

    — Yash |🇮🇳 (@United_India__) January 16, 2021If BJP Govt is sharing top defense secrets with a dalal like Arnab Goswami, just imagine what all information they must be trading with Ambani & Adani?#AntiNationalBJPArnab
    — Gaurav Pandhi (@GauravPandhi) January 17, 2021#ArnabGate exposed that BJP govt told #ArnabGoswami about the Balakot strike 3 days before it happened.Leaking top secret details about defence strategies to a private citizen is not only a massive security breach but TREASON by GOI . Government of India must be held accountable!
    — Shama Mohamed (@drshamamohd) January 17, 2021The bigger question that this revelation paints for us is that where are we heading as a nation? What is the state of our national security, what is indeed happening if confidential information is being leaked out and being peddled for TRP’s ? Just how safe is our nation now, since everyone, from the political leaders, our journalists and even the security stakeholders of this country are under the radar. While Arnab Goswami deserves a proper trial and he will surely get it, one cannot help but look at the dwelling darker picture which poses a bigger threat to us. We need to move on from trolling individuals and actually educating ourselves on what is happening. The nation wants to know the truth after all, right?

    International Test debutant Washington Sundar quickly gained a lot of fans of the longest format of cricket following the first innings of the Brisbane Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy.
    After bagging three important wickets in 31 overs, including those of Steve Smith and Cameroon Green during Australia’s batting innings, Sundar played a crucial role in the middle order of the Indian batting lineup when big names like Ajinkya Rahane, Mayank Agarawal and Rishabh Pant failed to leave a mark and the Men in Blue were struggling to get close to the Australian total.
    Nathan Lyon's 397th Test wicket seemed to come out of nowhere and the Aussies were pumped! #OhWhatAFeeling #AUSvIND | @Toyota_Aus pic.twitter.com/rIhl4ZjbTu

    Over the course of his phenomenal 62-run inning in a 120+ run partnership with fellow bowling all-rounder Shardul Thakur, the 21-year-old played some confident looking strokes all around the Gabba.
    However, the most “badass‘ shot came off his blade upon the completion of his maiden Test half-century. Facing Nathon Lyon on the pitch, the southpaw slogged a delivery over midwicket with his head looking straight towards the bowler.
    That's spicy! A no-look six from Sundar 6️⃣

    — cricket.com.au (@cricketcomau) January 17, 2021
    After connecting with the bat, Sundar did not even bother looking at the ball and knew that it was bound to clear the ropes for a six, as it did.
    Needless to say, fans of the Men in Blue were head over heels for the young and aggressive cricketer’s ‘no look’ shot and couldn’t stop talking about it online.
    If a person isn't looking at you that doesn't mean that person is shy maybe it's WASHINGTON SUNDAR who is busy hitting no look six .
    — Subham (@subhsays) January 17, 2021This is a first ive seen no look six 🤙🏽🏽 #boom got to love the Indian tail order batsmen nowadays what grit
    — Manav Bhatia (@manbhatia8) January 17, 2021That men sundar... May b India next big spin all rounder ... What a hit and what a confident inings on aus condition agianst best aus attack
    — Cricket 1st (@adnanmajeed06) January 17, 2021With disdain.
    — Ram Krishna (@rk21691) January 17, 2021Says who he is on debut. What swag. What confidence. Hats off.
    — Susheel Raina (@susheelraina) January 17, 2021Washington’s “nonchalant” shot against the hosts reminded a lot of people of a young and might Mahendra Singh Dhoni giving similar treatment to the New Zealand cricket team back in 2009 at Christchurch.

    Batting against Grant Elliot, the former Indian skipper swung for the fences and kept looking towards the greens as the ball sailed over the boundary. During the ODI clash against the Blackcaps, Dhoni had scored a 58-ball 68 in a winning effort for his country.
    And even though Sundar and Dhoni are two very different kinds of players, what makes the two similar is the brimming confidence with which they play on the crease and the self-belief that made them take such adventurous shots.
    In an attempt to retain the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, the Indian cricket team will certainly require Washington to stay on top of his game and continue to deliver for the team in the second innings as well.

    Making feature-length documentaries is certainly not an easy task, given just how well researched and accurate they have to be. However, as far as filmmaking goes, it is the most rewarding of forms. Just ask Anthony Wonke.

    © Anthony Wonke
    The BAFTA & Emmy winning director is a legend among documentary filmmakers. Although he has made some seminal films, in India, he is most known for his 2015 documentary, Ronaldo, which chronicled how the Juventus star and Real Madrid legend came to be the man that he is. 

    © IMDb
    For his latest project, The Man Who Walked Around The World, he turned his attention to Johnnie Walker and their master blenders, and how, a simple local grocer became a global icon, whose concoctions are in great demand all over the world.

    © Anthony Wonke
    We had a chat with him about the film, and his style of filmmaking and the research that goes into making a documentary. Following are the edited excerpts: 

    The film rightly points out that the world doesn't know much about master blenders, and the fact that there have been so few master blenders. Why do you think that is?
    That’s a hard question, but I assume it’s about how specialised a job it is and the need for continuity that it requires. As an outsider, looking in you really get the impression that the team at Johnnie Walker feels like a family and that they are really attached to the brand and what it represents. I imagine the same sense of loyalty goes both ways. 
    © Anthony Wonke
    These men and women in the blending team are essentially the alchemists who create these amazing flavours from thousands of different flavours and ingredients, something that takes years of experience and support; so one can assume they are looked after and appreciated. They are if you like almost like the rock stars of the whisky world.

    What do you think is the reason, that in spite of the popularity of Johnnie Walker the label, Johnnie Walker the man has remained somewhat anonymous?
    Well although Johnnie Walker was the first of the walkers to start the business, it was his son Alexander Walker who really transformed the brand into the global enterprise that we today know to be so popular. 
    © Wiki Commons
    It was his commercial and marketing skills that catapulted the drink into people’s lives around the world. He capitalised on the brand’s name and called it Johnnie Walker, he also commissioned the Striding Man logo and his distribution skills moved it around the world.

    Stylistically and thematically, how is The Man Who Walked Around different from the other documentaries that you have made? Were there any challenges and difficulties that you had not expected with this one?
    Without a doubt, the pandemic threw up lots of challenges. When we started the film the plan was to travel around the world and tell the stories. However, with the travel restrictions in place, we had to film remotely and work around different COVID restrictions and safety measures in different countries. 
    © IMDb
    While it did add in extra time and pressure to everything that we were planning, it eventually made the journey truly inspiring as everyone had a similar shared experience.

    How is the industry responding to the COVID situation? 
    It was amazing to see how the industry managed to adapt and harness new technology quickly and efficiently to make things work. I would sometimes be filming across 3 continents in one day to work around different time zones. It was exhausting but exhilarating at the same time.
    No matter in what part of the world you are in, Johnnie Walker is an aspirational as well as inspirational brand, including places where alcohol is prohibited. How much of it, do you think, can be attributed to John Walker, the founder?
    I think the Walkers themselves had a very expansionist and internationalist view of the world from very early on. They wanted to take the drink out of Scotland, and the first thing they did was move to London. And then from London, at the turn of the 20th century, the Walkers managed to take advantage of the Industrial Revolution and spread their whisky and their brand all over the world. 
    © Anthony Wonke
    It was an incredibly forward-thinking and open way of looking at the world, and it made them realise that this is the way it should be distributed - so that it was on shelves everywhere. And that was very much a part of John Walker. Even though he started as a humble grocer, he was always looking to the future and looking how to expand globally.

    The third day of the final Test match between India and Australia at the Brisbane Cricket Ground ended on a high note for Ajinkya Rahane’s squad despite the top batting order crumbling in the first two sessions. 
    And the biggest reason behind a comeback in the Gabba Test is the incredible 100+ run partnership between bowling all-rounders Shardul Thakur and Washington Sundar after names like Rishabh Pant, Mayank Agarwal and the skipper himself failed to deliver.
    After Thakur’s maiden half-century in the longest format of the game, Virat Kohli tweeted from his official social media handle, congratulating the Palghar-born on his potentially series-saving innings for his side.
    Outstanding application and belief by @Sundarwashi5 and @imShard. This is what test cricket is all about. Washy top composure on debut and tula parat maanla re Thakur!
    — Virat Kohli (@imVkohli) January 17, 2021
    “Outstanding application and belief by @Sundarwashi5 and @imShard. This is what test cricket is all about. Washy top composure on debut and tula parat maanla re Thakur,” Kohli wrote.
    Complimenting Thakur on his staggering innings, Kohli commended how the 29-year-old held his own against the most devastating bowling attack in the world and smashed some of confident, neat-looking strokes versus the likes of Pat Cummins and Mitchell Starc.
    While talking to Harsha Bhogle and Glenn McGrath, on Sony Six’s Extraaa Innings, Manjrekar went on a talking spree explaining the meaning of Kohli’s tweet while also explaining how he was sitting in an airport lounge explaining to Kohli the ways to appreciate a good performance in Marathi.
    Many fans of Indian cricket eventually got bugged by the former Indian batsman’s extreme pride in translating the skipper’s message and begged him to stop talking.
    Virat Kohli tweets a bit in Marathi about Shardul Thakur and Sanjay Manjrekar talks about it till the time Thakur retires , we didn't have Sanjay in the https://t.co/aoDkwGuirK for most of the second session, why did he come back? #AUSvIND
    — Aditya (@CAA_256) January 17, 2021Yes. Manjrekar just said. Virat asked him to tell something creative in marathi.
    — Jayesh (@jayeshvk16) January 17, 2021Manjrekar is so happy translating Marathi, an exclusive privilege, to Agarkar who is also a Marathi :)
    — Gabbbar (@GabbbarSingh) January 17, 2021Manjrekar orgasming at Virat tweeting in Marathi
    — AR🤙 (@Arv_2110) January 17, 2021Thakur and Sundar’s partnership started after the fall of Rishabh Pant when India were at 186 in the 67th over. The duo collated a massive and essential 123 runs for the seventh wicket following which Thakur was bowled by a blistering delivery by Cummins in the 103rd over.
    Although the Men in Blue could not match or exceed Australia’s first innings total, Thakur and Sundar did an exceptional job in slimming the deficit and keeping their side still in contention. India will retain the Border-Gavaskar Trophy if they win or draw the Brisbane Test while Australia need a win to get back the trophy.

    Ranveer Singh has always been popular for his rather unconventional style aesthetic. In fact, over the years, his personal style has evolved more than any of his contemporary actors and reflects his personality completely today. Before the COVID-19 pandemic hit us last year, he left no stone unturned in serving us with off-centric OOTDs, now that we've stepped into the new year, and considerable relaxations are in place as far as the pandemic is concerned, it looks like he is back to strutting his bizarre style.
    View this post on InstagramFor a recent airport look this week, Ranveer Singh was seen outside in an outfit with a Sherlock Holmes aesthetic. Sherlock Holmes's aesthetic can be defined by slim-fitting bespoke suits. Sherlock's suits are purposely plain that is often paired with slim-leg pants and a fitted two-button long, sweeping jacket. The suit is Sherlock's uniform or signature style, and he would never stray from it.
    Here's what Ranveer Singh's outfit looked like:

    Ranveer Singh was seen wearing a pair of white skinny pants with a grey high-neck pullover which is a typical Sherlock aesthetic. He paired that with a grey jacket. He completed the look with Louis Vuitton's Monogram Bob Hat which is priced at 590 Dollars which comes down to Rs. 52,000 approximately. He also wore Louis Vuitton’s Pre-Fall 2020 monogram sneaker which retails at 910 Dollars which comes down to Rs. 66,000 approximately.

    Just his accessories in this outfit, together come down to a whopping Rs.1,18,000. Clearly, this is an outfit that has been elevated by its starry accessories.

    Vikrant Massey has a big lineup of films this year which includes projects like Haseen Dilruba, Love Hostel, and 14 Phere. Since he has already proved his brilliant acting skills in shows like Mirzapur and Criminal Justice we can't wait to see him in the upcoming features in 2021. 
    View this post on Instagram
    He's also done acclaimed films like Cargo, Dolly Kitty Aur Woh Chamakte Sitare, and Ginny Weds Sunny, what we find Vikrant has in common with his characters is his quirky personal aesthetic. In fact, his sense of style, almost like his films, changes from one film to another. Currently, his style can be defined as more relaxed and inhibited. However, once he starts promoting his films, his outfits give a tough competition to the most popular street drips.
    But currently, Vikrant is shooting for his film, so we mostly spot him in his off-duty outfits. Case in point a recent ensemble. Take a look at the outfit here:
    © Viral Bhayani
    Vikrant was seen wearing a fitted flannel shirt in red and black colourways with a pair of crisp blue skinny jeans. To complete the look he wore a pair of black espadrilles.

    © Viral Bhayani
    He's not the only actor who has been wearing espadrilles frequently to style his outfits. Tiger Shroff and Saif Ali Khan, both are often spotted on the streets in espadrilles in varying colours, in fact, Tiger has worn nothing espadrilles in the last couple of months. It looks like making an outfit effortless with a pair of espadrilles has become a new trend in Bollywood. You can get a pair of espadrilles too if you have a similar outfit in mind.

    __ECOMPRODUCT__580__
    Regardless, this is clearly the perfect example of a great off-duty outfit.
