    A global pandemic is going on, and most of us haven't taken a getaway vacation in months. The ones lucky enough to still have a job are working overtime to stay employed, as the entire year has been absolute chaos.
    God knows all of us deserve a vacation right now, but even that privilege is reserved for the most privileged of the privileged.
    Looks like almost the entire of Bollywood has been escaping to the Maldives in shifts and trading in masks and hand sanitizers for private beaches and blue skies. 
    Is there some sort of Bollywood discount going on for this Maldives vacation? Is there an Illuminati meeting or something going on there? Why are so many famous people suddenly choosing the same place?

    Intimate scenes in movies and TV shows may look very romantic, but the reality has always been that they're awkward as hell to film. 
    Imagine so many people present while you're kissing someone with multiple cameras pointing at you. Not the most romantic thing in the world.

    And, with the pandemic going on, filming these scenes has gotten just weirder and weirder. First of all, actors have to constantly keep testing for Covid-19 and maintain social distancing as much as possible.

    Moreover, when it comes to intimate scenes, you just have to get really creative to get that perfect shot because no one wants someone else near their faces at a time like this.

    After movies and TV shows started production back again after the lockdown was over, we've seen so many weird ways in which people have filmed such romantic scenes.
    First, we saw saas-bahu serials in India embracing face masks and shields to keep filming and it was honestly quite cringey.
    View this post on InstagramAnother 'romantic' scene had the guy putting hand sanitizer on her and showing that as intimate. I get that it's the new reality, but come on!

    Now, with Christmas around the corner, it means an avalanche of Christmas movies coming our way and Lifetime TV, famous for such scenes, has shown the behind-the-scenes of how kissing scenes have been filmed this year. 
    Are you ready for it? I bet you're not.

    So, a glass pane is put between the actors and then edited out of the final product. Full props for safety but also full props for making this year feel like we're living in a dystopian world. 

    A couple of months ago, KJ Apa shared how they were filming makeout scenes on the set of Riverdale and it involved a lot of... mouthwash. 
    View this post on Instagram
    This one seems the most normal of the lot, but the biggest question is, why the hell were you not doing this before there was even a pandemic? Mouthwash between takes should be a requirement, it's kind of gross to not do that. 
    Well, let's see what other creative solutions filmmakers will come up with because, let's be real, the protocols for filming have probably changed for at least the next few years.

    The definition of a star is changing with time and the audience is surely evolving too. People have started to accept actors without star appeal, solely based on their acting skills. One such star in the making is Rohit Saraf who was last seen in Ludo and is all ready for his upcoming show, Mismatched. He started his career with the teen drama Best Friends Forever. With no filmy roots, his journey hasn't been a bed of roses as he did have to struggle for two years to finally land a gig.

    In a recent interview with Pinkvilla, he opened up about how he was struggling to get a job for the first two years and gained 14Kgs during the time. He told the entertainment website, “There was a very bad phase for me where for two years, I did not get any work, and this was initially when I started, in 2014-15. I did not do any work during that time, I did not even get ads. I would audition for 50-60 ads in a month and would get nothing. It affected me not just mentally but also physically. I put on 14 KGs in those two years. It was a very bad phase. I think it is important to have those phases too because if it is just an upward ride, you wouldn’t know what down feels like.”

    He added that it’s a scary space when an artist doesn’t get any job and he thanked his therapist for supporting him in his low days. He added, “I can’t tell you how scary it can be for an artist to be in a space where they don’t know where the light is at the end of the tunnel.”

    Things did change for Rohit when he gained popularity with The Sky is Pink, which also featured Zaira Wasim, Priyanka Chopra, and Farhan Akhtar. He has also appeared in Dear Zindagi and Hichki. Rohit says The Sky Is Pink helped him grow as a person too because he realized he had been carrying the emotional baggage of losing his father at the age of 11.

    He told TOI, “It was a déjà vu moment for me when we were filming this part. It was like a flash from my past and I had no option but to relive those moments. That’s when I truly dealt with my emotions and it felt like I got some kind of closure that I didn’t even know I needed. It helped me let go of all the baggage that I didn’t even realize I was carrying for all these years. So, it has been a cathartic, healing process for me. This film has not just helped me grow as an actor, but as a person as well. I cried for real while shooting for it because the similarities between my reel and real lives were uncanny. The script reminded me of what had happened with my father and there were days when I was an emotional wreck on the sets. But at the end of it, I started believing that it is all about celebrating life, rather than mourning the death.”

    It was surely hard for him to make his presence felt but he did shine and obviously, we couldn’t miss his innocent, boy-next-door charm. Interestingly, he keeps his characters realistic and that helps the audience stay connected to him. 
    Eventually, things change for the better for Rohit and he was appreciated for his role in Ludo and now, his fans are ready to welcome him with Mismatched.

    It’s time we all celebrate such talents and not go by only the star appeal traditionally associated with actors.

    If you are a Punjabi, you’d know how Punjabi parents change the pronunciation of every word that exists on this planet. Also, the dialect is such that we just don’t spare a single word and change it according to whatever we want to call it. Like powder becomes pawdurr while saying it out loud and, YouTube becomes JewTube, Dominos becomes Dominno, lights become laightaan and we can keep on going.

    Now, in another episode of ‘this happens only in Punjab’ a Twitter user shared a picture of ‘Jugni’ getting sold in Ludhiana’s supermarket. Well, sounds very confusing? But also reminds us of a very popular Bollywood song from the film Cocktail.

    So, if you see zucchini labeled as ‘Jugni’ all you got to do is buy it and start humming the Punjabi song.

    Dr. Aman Kashyap took to Twitter sharing the picture along with the saying, “When Zucchini Comes to Punjab. The Punjabi dialect didn't even spare poor Zucchini once it's been to Ludhiana.”

    The post already has around 3.7K likes and we think it deserves more. Also, people have definitely resonated with it and can’t stop commenting.

    While most people fell in love with the desi naamkaran, many of them were just concerned that zucchini is comparatively expensive in their area. So, here’s what people have to say about desi zucchini from Ludhiana-
    Lol, that’s the first thing that came to our mind too! 
    Jugni ji - Ae we Allah waaleya jugni
    — Mota Bhai ️ (@riderprovider4) November 19, 2020 This is an even bigger problem.
    it is so cheap, here in nagpur they sell zucchini for 350/kg

    WWE Survivor Series 2020 is set to take place on Monday November 23, 2020 behind closed doors at the Amway Center in Orlando and while there are lot of massive matches to look forward to, we draw your attention to The Undertaker’s ‘Final Farewell’ - a celebration of the Phenom’s 30 year anniversary as a WWE superstar.
    I have always been fascinated by Mark Calaway, the man who created and maintained the persona of The Undertaker for over three decades while his opponents and experts of the sports-entertainment sector believed that it wouldn’t last for more than a few months.

    And yes, nobody questions the kind of dedication Calaway showed towards his character over all those years. He somehow managed to hide his emotions after winning the big titles, his pain after experiencing a brutal injury or anger when his opponent botched a move.
    It was his professionalism and sheer passion for what he did that kept him and his gimmick relevant in the business for so long and garnered millions of fans globally. 

    Having said that, the second half of 2010s wasn’t kind to the Dead Man and the career. Ever since hitting his 50s, Calaway understandably got a lot slower in the ring, his injuries stopped healing as quickly as they used to and he needed more and more recovery time before coming back to the show.
    And then came the head concussion at WrestleMania 30, the day his legendary streak would end at the hands of Brock Lesnar. Till date, he doesn’t remember what happened during the match. With his head buzzing, he pulled out the entire show completely based on his instincts and decades of muscle memory.

    Broken hip bone, joints that required injecting extra lubrication before every match and bottles of painkillers afterwards… that became his life for years. 
    But why? Why would someone continue to put themselves through so much pain for one night a year? He had given his entire life to the business, people loved and respected him and appreciated him for his work. So why would he feel the need to keep coming back to the ring again and again?

    Why couldn’t the Undertaker retire earlier?

    I got the opportunity to ask the same question to the brilliant Paul Heyman who has been a close colleague of the Undertaker and is someone who knows how it feels to be performing in front of a live audience and feed off their energy.
    “It is like the old story of the great actor Laurence Olivier telling Dustin Hoffman why he continued to act despite his struggles. Olivier told him that he was like any other actor and all he kept saying in his heart was ‘loot at me, look at me, look at me...’,” Paul says.

    “Whether it is Ric Flair, the Undertaker or anyone else, the emotional and spiritual high that one gets by performing in front of a receptive crowd is the greatest... orgy anyone can ever participate in. It is a wave of emotions that brings a rush to a performer that can’t be duplicated by any drink, drug or *** that’s out there.”
    But every addiction comes at a cost. Undertaker paid the price by putting his body on line and faced numerous irreversible health issues. 

    Fortunately, the superstar finally decided to cut off that addiction and made a resolve to not come back to the ring after 2020. His ‘Final Farewell’ at Survivor Series 2020 is destined to mark the end of a remarkable career and the beginning of a retired life… a well earned and much needed retired life.

    After years of hard work and multiple delays, CD Projekt Red is finally ready to give us Cyberpunk 2077. It's coming out on December 10 and we honestly can't wait to play it. The studio has been pumping out videos leading up to the release date and they wrapped up with their final video in the Night City Wire series last night.
    The finale video is all about the in-game music, animation details, and most importantly, Keanu Reeves' role in the game. For those of you who don't know, Keanu Reeves is playing a role in Cyberpunk 2077 and his character is named Johnny Silverhand.

    Johnny is both a rockstar and an ex-military and he seems to have his own agenda in the game. His role is bigger than what we had anticipated. In fact, CD Projekt Red considers him a 'co-protagonist' as a lot of quests will revolve around this character.

    We highly suggest you watch the Night City Wire video to learn more about his role in the game. Long story short, it's going to be fun playing the game while having by the side for the fun ride. In addition to that, the video shows us how Cyberpunk 2077's soundtrack has numerous real bands on it.

    The game has up to 150 custom tracks and the featured artists include Run The Jewels, Grimes, Nina Kraviz, Gazelle Twin, and Rat Boy. And if you are a streamer, then the game will also allow you to enable streamer mode so that all the copyrighted music will be disabled. The copyrighted tracks will be replaced with something suitable for streaming.

    There's a lot in store for us and now we can't wait for December 10 to be here already. We hope you are ready with your hardware to run this beast. In the meantime, you can head over here to read our full coverage on all things Cyberpunk 2077.

    Actor Michael B. Jordan who is known for his prominent roles in films like Black Panther, Creed, and Just Mercy received the title of 'Sexiest Man Alive' 2020.

    He further said that "everybody always made that joke, like, ‘Mike, this is the one thing you’re probably not going to get," the actor was clearly surprised by this win.

    However, for most people, this title for Michael Jordan was long overdue.
    Some people on the internet already knew that he was going to win.

    This system states that filmmakers mandatorily have to enlist a diverse cast and crew when shooting a movie. "I’ve been picking my moments to make the most impact," Jordan added, "We can all take action—big or small—to help create the change we want to see."
    Looking at his Instagram feed, it is not surprising why he bagged the title. In fact, here's looking at some of his insane outfits that prove that he had been in the running for a long time now:

    he iPhone 12 Pro Max is arguably one the most expensive smartphones launched by Apple and the basic variant starts at around $1099 depending on where you are. A delivery man who was asked to deliver 14 iPhone 12 Pro Max units, fled with the consignment after the shipment was handed over to him for delivery. 
    © Reuters (representational purposes only)
    The delivery man, whose name was Tang, worked for a Chinese shopping platform called Meituan-Dianping. According to the report, the devices were picked up from an Apple authorised store clerk in Guiyang, capital of Guizhou province of China. Meituan Delivery was given the order to deliver a package containing 14 brand new iPhone 12 Pro Max devices to a different Apple store. 

    Instead of delivering the package, Tang cancelled the order and paid 10 yuan for defaulting. He then vanished with the phones costing 10,000 yuan (around $1,500). The store clerk was unable to contact him after the delivery was cancelled. 
    However, Tang was apprehended within a short time with ten unopened iPhone 12 Pro Max boxes. He had already opened four boxes from the total order where one was opened for personal use and the other was given to a friend to pay off a debt. The third unit was mortgaged to a pawn shop at 9,500 yuan and the fourth unit was sold to a mobile phone dealer at 7,000 yuan. Tang, with his newfound cash went on a spending spree as he bought a new dress and rented a BMW for fun which cost him 600 yuan a day. The four units that were sold or pawned were subsequently recovered by the police.

    The delivery company Meituan has since banned Tang from its network for life and has issued an industry-wide blacklist preventing him from getting work at any other courier company. Tang will likely also face criminal prosecution by the Chinese Government.

    This is not an exclusive incident as delivery persons have been found stealing gadgets, smartphones and other valuable items in India as well. Often, delivery personnel would replace these items with bricks, soap bars and other heavy items to fool customers when they deliver orders.

    WWE Survivor Series 2020 is just a couple of days away and one of the biggest highlights of the pay-per-view would be the Undertaker’s ‘Final Farewell’ exactly 30 years after he had entered the wrestling business in 1990.
    I got on touch with one of the most creative and brilliant minds of the wrestling-entertainment sector and one of the Undertaker’s greatest colleagues and admirer, Paul Heyman, to look back at the Dead Man’s legacy and to gauge how will the world react once he moves away from the spotlight for good.
    View this post on Instagram
    “The Undertaker has enjoyed one of the greatest in-ring careers in the history of sports-entertainment. It is the pain and suffering that he endures on a daily basis that makes his story even more compelling,” Heyman says. “I have always been fascinated by the Undertaker’s ability to maintain the mystique around his persona for 30 years.”
    When Mark Calaway made his debut in the WWE 30 years ago at Survivor Series 1990, his gimmick was essentially that of an undead zombie. It was ridiculous and nobody thought that the persona would stay alive for long. 

    And yet, here we are with a bitter-sweet feeling in our hearts about the fact that our favourite character is going away after entertaining us for over three decades. For years, he kept his emotions aside. His role didn’t allow him to show pain or fear on his face. Now however, when the audience has accepted him for the man behind the character, there is no telling how he’d react when the time comes.
    I asked Heyman how he’d react when he sees such a remarkable man take center stage one last time and here’s what he said.
    “It speaks volumes of the man himself that he would be willing to subject himself to such a potentially emotional moment in front of a global audience when he has spent 30 years displaying no emotion. Where I come from, you’d say ‘Wow! That takes a lot of balls’.”

    “It is akin to finding out that your favourite television series is ending. Your imagination runs wild with what will happen to your favourite character. It is very hard to gauge how one’s going to react to such a huge moment. To me that is one of the great selling points. Nobody knows how we will handle the farewell of a ‘larger than life persona’.”

    Heyman in his own words “rarely looks back in time” but he made an exception when I challenged him to do so. I asked him what his greatest ‘Undertaker Moment’ was and his response, albeit sounding surprisingly egocentric at first, made a lot of sense eventually. 

    “My favourite Undertaker moment ever was the moment my client Brock Lesnar conquered his undefeated streak at Wrestlemania,” Heyman said. 
    “The reason why it is not as selfish as many would presume, is because that in my not-so-humble opinion, it was the beginning of allowing the Undertaker to be human, to be flawed, to be vulnerable, to be in pain and suffering. It allowed him to be the man behind this mythical legend and not just the mythical legend itself.” 

    “The loss from Brock Lesnar made it okay for the audience to accept the humanisation of the Undertaker.”
    As a fan sitting thousands of miles away from the ThunderDome inside the Amway Center in Orlando, Florida I can simply speculate how it would feel to be The Undertaker, addressing a career that gave him broken bones, tore muscles, countless sleepless nights, money, fame and the opportunity to become immortal.
