    The makers said URI’s second anniversary was the perfect opportunity to unveil the first look of The Immortal Ashwatthama. 

    Calling The Immortal Ashwatthama the biggest film of his career yet, Vicky Kaushal, in one of his interviews, said it’s going to be an exhilarating experience for him to explore technology alongside his craft. 
    “Ashwatthama is Aditya’s dream project and it required the backing of a visionary like Ronnie to bring this spectacle to audiences. It’s going to be a new space for me as an actor, exploring the newest form of technology alongside acting. Can’t wait to start the journey soon with this wonderful team,” Vicky said.

    Aditya Dhar, who is both the writer and director on the project, said he will approach The Immortal Ashwatthama in a responsible manner as it’s a retelling of an epic story. 

    “We are working hard to create a visual spectacle that audiences across India would have never seen before. I promise this would not just be a film, but an experience. More than the pressure, I am taking this film as a responsibility of telling this epic story, in the way it is meant to be told. I hope audiences shower the same love to Ashwatthama as they did to URI,” Aditya said in a statement. 
    As per the reports, Ashwatthama is scheduled to go on floors later this year.
    We are totally excited about this one. What about you?

    Despite boasting of one of the best bowling attacks and dominating the proceedings for the better part of the match, Australia were forced to endure a frustrating draw by an exemplary batting performance by India on Day 5 of the 3rd Test at the Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG).
    Facing an opposition that had a battered and bruised batting line-up, further weakened by the absence of their regular captain and arguably best batsman Virat Kohli, the hosts, amid a full-strength bowling attack, had 97 overs to claim just eight wickets to go 2-1 up in the four-match Test series. But, they couldn't.
    Bruised. Broken. But never short of character. Really happy with how the boys fought till the end. Lots to learn and improve as we look forward to Brisbane now. pic.twitter.com/4VBZGCvbnp

    A resilient partnership between Ravichandran Ashwin and Hanuma Vihari, who were part of the epic blockathon that lasted 259 balls, kept an expected win at bay for Australia. 
    If the commendable fighting spirit shown by Indian batsmen wasn't enough, the fact that Australia botched up key opportunities to gain an upper hand further sums up their outing at the SCG.
    Australian captain Tim Paine had his own shortcomings on the field, especially during the final day's play. 
    The Aussie glovesman dropped Rishabh Pant twice before spilling Vihari's catch in the dying moments of Day 5.
    At a time when Australia were desperate to take wickets, Paine shockingly spilt some crucial catches that could have surely changed the course of the game. 
    Vihari edges and a chance goes down late on the final day...

    — cricket.com.au (@cricketcomau) January 11, 2021His ordinary glovework behind the stumps earned him a lot of flak on social media. 

    Cricket fans took turns to school Paine over the importance of taking catches before slamming him for his avoidable banters from behind the stumps, especially after the one that involved Ashwin.
    HAHA TIM PAINE DROPPED THAT. THE GUY TOO BUSY DOING A PODCAST BEHIND THE STUMPS

    Previous Legends of Australia sledge because they wanted to dominate the world and they did, but this Australian team sledges because they do not have trust on their batting and bowling

    — Cricketopia (@CricketopiaCom) January 11, 2021
    If he focused on his keeping a bit more than his sledging, we may have won this. Can we all just be honest. He's there because he's captain. This needs to end.

    WhatsApp has been facing a mass exodus in the past few days ever since the messaging app started forcing users to accept their terms of service. The messaging app explained its intention to collect data and share it with other Facebook-owned companies. The data includes sensitive private details that users might not be comfortable to share with any of Facebook-owned companies.

    However, in a statement by Telegram via a press release that can also be found on Telegram’s blog, CEO Pavel Durov pointed out a few security features of WhatsApp that raise eyebrows. There were numerous “bots” spreading false rumours about Telegram which included doubting Telegram’s one source nature. Durov responded “all Telegram client apps have been open-source since 2013. Our encryption and API are fully documented and have been reviewed by security experts thousands of times. Moreover, Telegram is the only messaging app in the world that has verifiable builds both for iOS and Android. As for WhatsApp, they intentionally obfuscate their code, making it impossible to verify their encryption and privacy.”

    When looking further into WhatsApp’s security, it is indeed difficult to verify the instant messaging apps’ encryption and privacy measures. In fact, Turov believes WhatsApp’s encryption may even have backdoors that can be accessed by the U.S. Government. “Every chat on Telegram has been encrypted since launch. We have Secret Chats that are end-to-end and Cloud Chats that also offer real-time secure and distributed cloud storage. WhatsApp, on the other hand, had zero encryption for a few years and then adopted an encryption protocol funded by the US Government. Even if we assume that the WhatsApp encryption is solid, it’s invalidated via multiple backdoors and reliance on backups.”

    It is quite disconcerting to even have doubts that our personal messages can be accessed via a backdoor. It remains to be seen how true Turov’s claim really are however for now it is enough to convince many WhatsApp users to switch to other messaging apps. Telegram has seen a sudden surge in new users thanks to WhatsApp’s forced policies and has now amassed over 500 million users. 
    If you are looking to switch messaging apps, we recommend moving to any of these three alternatives.

    Janhvi Kapoor has finally shared her first look from her upcoming film, Good Luck Jerry, for which she recently began filming in Punjab on Monday. The film is a production of Aanand L Rai and Janhvi is seen wearing a regular salwar kameez which is the costume for her character in the film.
    In the picture, Janhvi looks like a happy-go-lucky girl who is smiling ear to ear and her hair is styled in braids. She is seen walking in a narrow lane in Punjab. Also, today is the first day of the shoot for the film and the first schedule of the film is expected to continue till March.
    Sharing the same, Janhvi took to Instagram and shared the picture with a hashtag along with the film’s name.

    Janhvi’s last film, Gunjan Saxena: The Kargil Girl was also well received by the audience. It was a biopic of a former IAF pilot, Gunjan Saxena. The film got positive reviews but also received a lot of flak due to its depiction of the Air Force.
    Good Luck Jerry is directed by Sidharth Sengupta and also features Deepak Dobriyal, Meeta Vashishth, Neeraj Sood, and Sushant Singh.

    With questionable privacy decisions made by WhatsApp, a lot of people are now looking to switch from WhatsApp to other messengers apps. Telegram and Signal seem to be top choices right now as they are said to be better than WhatsApp at handling user privacy.
    In this story, we'll particularly talk about Signal and the kind of features it offers. In case you are wondering about the kind of features you get on Signal, then here's a quick list of WhatsApp features that are already on Signal.
    Disappearing Messages © Singal
    WhatsApp recently introduced the ability to send disappearing messages on its app. But this feature has been available on Signal for years now. For those of you who don't know, this feature will automatically delete your messages after a set period of time and keep your chat clean. WhatsApp limits the timer to only seven days, but Signal lets you choose anything between 5 seconds to a week.

    Read Receipts & Typing IndicatorsIf you like using the read receipts feature on WhatsApp, then you won't be missing out much because Singal also supports the feature. Of course, it can be turned off so others can't see when you read their texts. The app also supports typing indicators and it shows when someone is typing.

    One of the main reasons why people are hesitant about switching to other apps is the fact that we all have multiple groups on WhatsApp. Well, guess what? Signal also supports groups with admin roles and it's very similar to how WhatsApp handles groups.

    End-to-end EncryptionEnd-to-end encryption, for those of you who don't know, is basically a privacy feature that ensures only the intended recipients are able to read the messages and their contents. Just like WhatsApp, Signal also supports end-to-end encryption and it's a great feature to have.
    Attachments & Forwarding MessagesJust like WhatsApp, Signal also lets you send attachments in any format except APKs. And unlike WhatsApp, Signal doesn't compress the photos that are sent as heavily as WhatsApp does. Additionally, the app also supports forwarding messages to other users or groups.

    Some Bollywood films have an extraordinary impact on us and Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham continues to be an all-time favorite movie of many people. Now, a music producer and composer has remixed Karan Johar’s directorial music with the help of an iconic scene from a 2001 film where Kajol is seen crying after breaking a very expensive flower vase.

    The theme music is creating a laugh riot online as the artiste edited Kajol’s melodramatic crying along with the background music, adding peppy beats. The peppy musical rendition will make you go bonkers and this time Mayur Jumani himself made a special appearance in his video. He juxtaposed his expression alongside Farida Jalal, Shah Rukh Khan, Kajol among others.
    He wrote in the caption while sharing the video, “Sorry @kajol, sorry @karanjohar but had to do this. Renamed this instrument as ‘The Kajol’.”

    The video created a huge buzz online and a lot of people starting reacting to the video within a matter of few hours and the video got a lot of love and reaction on social media from Instagram users. People also started tagging the actors of the film in the comment section along with the director to get their reaction to the spoof video.

    Aamir Khan rarely makes any public appearances. He belongs to the niche group of celebrities who believe in minimalistic living. 
    This is perhaps the reason why he's only spotted when he's either shooting or promoting a film. 
    Currently, he has three upcoming films this year, namely Vikram Vedha, Laal Singh Chaddha, and Mogul. 
    With Laal Singh Chaddha releasing soon, we know that we will be seeing a lot more of Aamir Khan in the next couple of months.

    Aamir Khan's personal style can be defined as laid-back, and relaxed. In fact, his outfits are always stand out in the category with the unique accessories he throws in. 
    Recently, he was spotted in another such look. Take a look at his ensemble here:

    In what will undeniably go down as one of the best matches of 2021, India pulled off a herculean task to eke out a remarkable draw against Australia in the 3rd Test. 
    Overcoming all odds, the visiting side showed great resilience to keep a certain defeat and the rampant Australian bowling attack at bay at the Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG).
    With 97 overs to survive on the final day and eight wickets in hand, India, who had a bruised and battered batting line-up sans their original captain and best batsman, produced one of the most dramatic displays of patient batting and exemplary fighting spirit to pull off a draw that no one saw coming.

    Irrfan Khan's demise on April 29, 2020, left everyone mourning and in tears. Irrfan’s death has personally affected so many people and he will always be remembered fondly. It’s his son Babil who has been keeping him and his memories alive for all his well-wishers and fans. Babil has been involved in the process of filmmaking as he is learning the nuisances of it.
    He keeps sharing his learnings on Instagram and today, posted a picture of the cover of the book Actors On Acting, signed by his father Irrfan. Sharing the post, he wrote, "Up for lending (sic)." "Irrfan in New York for The Namesake," the legendary actor had written on the book.
    View this post on Instagram
    On the post, one Instagram user asked him, "Sir, when will you come into the field of acting? (sic). To which, Babil replied, "I am already in the field of acting, when I will appear in a film is the question. Once I have graduated around May, I will start looking into offers (sic)."
    © Babil Khan Instagram
    On January 7, Irrfan's birth anniversary, Babil shared an unseen video of his parents, Irrfan and Sutapa Sikdar.

    He wrote, "You never identified with institutions such as contractual marriage and birthday celebrations. Perhaps, that is why I don’t remember anyone’s birthdays because you never remembered mine and never encouraged me to remember yours. It was just normal to us what seemed absurd from the outside, we celebrated every day (bringing personal experiential authenticity to the cliche). On the occasion, Mamma would have to remind us both; but this time I could not forget yours if I tried. It’s your birthday, Baba. Shoutout to all the technologically inept parents, notice that they did not finish saying that they miss me (sic)."

    We wish that Babil continues the legacy of his father in the industry and gives us films that are worth appreciating like Irrfan.

    One of the coolest features of the OnePlus phones is the Always On Display (AOD) that lets users glance at useful info without unlocking the phone. We think all smartphones with an AMOLED panel should make use of this. It saves a lot of time and helps us get all the info quickly.
    To make them more useful OnePlus is making a useful addition with the upcoming OxygenOS 11 update. The AOD will soon also show you how many times you've unlocked your phone. This info will be shown on the main 'Always-On Display' along with a slick animation.
    Here, check it out -
    As useful as it can be, we know AOD can add distractions. So for OxygenOS 11, we added this option: an AOD that shows you how often you unlock your phone, so you have more control over your digital wellbeing. #NoDetailIsTooSmall pic.twitter.com/HYqWsukIFi
    — Pete Lau (@PeteLau) January 8, 2021
    As you can see, the same was confirmed by Pete Lau in a tweet. He noted how this feature can help you have more control over your digital wellbeing. You can also see the animation in the tweet. It'll show you how many times you've unlocked the phone with a timestamp.
    Your usual set of notification icons and the battery percentage will still be shown but they've now been pushed below to make room for this new animation.

    We always appreciate OnePlus for adding new features to its phones. These kinds of digital wellbeing features are always welcome and we'd to see some more innovative features in the future with the introduction of the new phones.

    On Monday, Rajinikanth took to Twitter to make a strong appeal to his fans.

    In his message, the 70-year-old veteran actor appealed to his fans to stop pressuring him with protests as it was clearly, hurting him.
    For the unversed, he made a shocking u-turn and dropped his political plans last month. 
    Rajinikanth's debut in politics had been anticipated by his supporters for nearly 25 years and only recently, with months to the Tamil Nadu election, he had indicated that he was finally ready. 
    © Reuters
    But reports of his reluctance emerged in October when he said he was advised by doctors to stay away from the heat and dust of a campaign. He called it a “sign from God”. 

    Now, he has put out a fresh statement after his fans organised a protest yesterday urging him to withdraw his decision to opt out of politics.
    "I have explained the reasons for my inability (to enter politics) in detail. I have conveyed my decision. Please don't pain me, again and again, asking me to enter politics by organising such events," Rajinikanth said, berating his fans for "defying" his wish. 
    pic.twitter.com/NVExYcjxN9
    — Rajinikanth (@rajinikanth) January 11, 2021 "Some of my fans along with expelled cadres of Rajini Makkal Mandram have protested in Chennai against my decision of not entering politics. I have taken my decision, I appeal to everyone to not indulge in such things (protest) as it pains me," he added. 
    In December, Rajinikanth, on the brink of launching his political party after years of speculation, backed out citing his health.
    "My hospitalisation was a warning given by God. My campaign will impact health amid the pandemic," he said, days after he was hospitalized for blood pressure fluctuations during a shoot in Hyderabad. 
    Before that, the megastar was all set to reveal his political party plan on New Year's Eve. "It is now or never," he had said on December 3, after meeting with his closest advisers. 
    Two days after his discharge from hospital, he put out a statement saying: "With extreme sadness I say that I can't enter politics. I alone know the pain I went through while announcing this decision. Without entering electoral politics, I will serve the people. This decision of mine will disappoint my fans and people but please forgive me." 
    Do you agree with his decision? What are your thoughts on this? Don’t forget to tell us in the space below.
