    Qualcomm's Snapdragon 888 is now official and it delivers some great improvements over the existing flagship SoC. We can expect a host of high-end phones to be powered by the Snapdragon 888 next year and beyond. That being said, we already a lot of phones that are confirmed to come out with the new processor.

    For ages, in the patriarchal world, the word ‘mard’ was used to connote machoism, someone who doesn’t show vulnerabilities on the plate, and the one who wears the idea of dominance on his sleeves. Quite naturally, then, men did hold center stage in the world of cinema with women only playing the supporting roles and adding the pinch of glamour.
    Now, we can see the concept of ‘mard’ evolving and it’s getting broader. Well, men too can be vulnerable and play the parts wherein women have a strong voice. It’s about celebrating the characters so articulately written and making a change in how we have been seeing men in Bollywood movies.
    1. Professor Shrinivas Ramchandra Siras In Aligarh 
    We had always celebrated men who belonged to certain stereotypes and being homophobic came along with those set notions. Professor Shrinivas Ramchandra Siras played by Manoj Bajpayee changed the entire notion by taking up the challenging role. Film writer-cum-editor Apurva Asrani in an interview with Firstpost, said, “A few years ago, to be a man, the male protagonist needed a wife or a girlfriend. He needed to be cut in the image of ‘Ram’ the dutiful family guy. If not, it was considered that “ma da laadla bigad gaya” (mother’s favourite son has been spoiled). Then the deviant male could share screen space with a ‘real male’ protagonist, but only as of the buffoon, the villain, or at best, a sidekick! Today men can cry on screen, swoon alone to Lata Mangeshkar songs like Siras, look as gorgeous as Fawad Khan, and still have a long-term relationship with another man, father children yet realize one day that they must stop living a lie.” We do agree with Asrani's statement as Siras did have strong beliefs that didn’t overlap with his sexual behavior in any way. He was shunned by the university people wherein he worked for years for being gay . His character was a tight slap to those people who think men can only be straight and gay men have to look a certain 'way'.
    2. Deepak Sehgal In Pink 
    Pink was, in itself, a path-breaking movie as a man, here, was fighting for the rights of women. Deepak Sehgal’s character played by Amitabh Bachhan was trying to break the set mindset of the bunch of patriarchal idiots who think a woman invites rape herself. He tried to explain the concept of consent which I feel people still fail to understand. For those who find it difficult to understand that no means no, you can surely rewatch Pink.
    3. Bhaskor Banerjee In Piku And Rudra In Stree 
    These two characters set an example for fathers who think that talking about *** to their offspring is nothing but an act of blasphemy. Bhaskor played by Amitabh and Rudra played by Atul Srivastava are here to tell you it’s okay in casual conversations about *** with sons or daughters. Hope the patriarchal dictators take some lessons from these two.
    4. Mudit Sharma in Shubh Mangal Saavdhan And Kartik Singh In Shubh Zyada Mangal Saavdhan  
    As we all know the film was about a man facing the issue of erectile dysfunction, Ayushmann Khurrana’s character Mudit is here to tell you it’s okay to be vulnerable if you have an issue like this where you find yourself in a spot where society can judge for your manliness. Mudit also normalizes the fact that men who have erectile dysfunction are normal like other men and are not as our society terms ‘napunsak’. For years, Bollywood has displayed homosexual characters in an amusing manner and showed that they have feminine mannerisms but here we have Kartik who shows the other side and a more realistic one.
    5. Kabir Kamlesh Bansal In Ki And Ka
    For years, we have seen movies with women taking command of the kitchen and running the house, but here we have Kabir who has no qualms in doing the household chores and letting his wife earn. He is changing the perspective of men who think cooking makes them less of a macho. Again, the patriarchal idiots who think cooking is to women then should surely know the fact that many men have opted to be a chef.
    With these characters and many more like these in the new-age movies, we can surely be thankful that the industry is changing and trying to have a progressive stand.
