It's been months since not only one of the finest actors we've seen but also one of the most genuinely great people passed away and left everyone to mourn such a huge loss. Irrfan Khan's death personally affected so many people and he will always be remembered fondly.
And, if the people who had never even met him were so immensely affected by his death, one can only imagine what his family felt like, have been feeling like since he passed away.

His son Babil shared a heartwarming video of his parents on Instagram and saying people are feeling emotional would be an understatement. The video shows Irrfan and his wife Sutapa singing ‘Mera Saaya Saath Hoga’ and him asking, "Mera saya ki tera saya?"

As cringey as some of their shows might be, we cannot ignore the fact that the Indian television industry has given us some really talented and capable actors.
Some of these actors went on to have illustrious careers in movies and had some of the most iconic films under their belt.
© Twitter/RK1610IsMe
Even fashion and style-wise, we have had some great actors from the television industry.
We take a look at 6 such actors from the 2000s, who delighted us with their performances, and style:
1. Rajeev Khandelwal © Twitter/RK1610IsMe
Rajeev Khandelwal had a number of great television shows, all of whom were massively popular. Furthermore, he had a charm that most people found endearing.
That, combined with his sense of style and a great ability to create some tasteful ensembles, ensured that he has a massive fan following.
2. Ronit Roy © IMDb
Now, technically speaking, Ronit Roy isn’t exactly from the 2000s television industry, he had a Bollywood career much before that.
However, it was the original Kasautii Zindagi Kay, that sort of revived his career and cemented his popularity among the masses. And can we just say, that Mr Bajaj, the original one, was one of the most stylish characters on Indian television for a considerable period of time?
3. Sidharth Shukla © Twitter/sidharth_shukla
Sidharth was already a popular name before he made his television debut in 2008. However, the wonders that television did for his career is just incredible.
Almost overnight, he became a household name, thanks to some really powerful and nuanced characters he played. Of course, his sheepish charm, and a very relatable and functional sense of style, also helped.
4. Cezanne Khan © Balaji Telefilms
The main lead of Kasautii Zindagi Kay, Cezanne Khan, was all people could talk about when the show was popular. Men and women alike would follow him and keep track of his activities like crazy.
For a show that was from the early 2000s, it was actually very fashionable and contemporary.
5. Rahil Azam © IMDb
Remember Hatim, the fantasy show? The guy, Rahil Azam, who played the titular role, was pretty popular back in the day.
Like most other people on the list, he started out as a model and was seen in a number of music videos and TV commercials, which should tell you all about his ability to dress with style.
Once he made his television debut, he became immensely popular among adults and kids alike.
6. Sushant Singh Rajput © Balaji Telefilms
Finally, there’s Sushant Singh Rajput. He always had an immaculate sense of style, even during his days as an actor in television soaps.
Of course, over the years, his sense of style and fashion evolved immensely, and he gave us a number of tasteful and really well put together outfits.
During his time at Pavitra Rishta, he had a very relatable, and functional sense of style, which resonated with a lot of people. Furthermore, he always had this charm, which people found very endearing.

Apple recently launched its latest smartwatch in India and if you aren’t familiar with its predecessors, it is the best wearable ever created. While the Indian market has been flooded with fitness trackers and smartwatches, none of them can even match up to Apple’s offering. The Apple Watch Series 6 is probably the only smartwatch worth getting if you are an iPhone user or even worth switching to the Apple ecosystem for it. The Apple Watch Series 6 is a small upgrade from its predecessor, however it doesn’t mean improvements haven’t been made under the hood. It’s a little weird reviewing this product especially since it’s almost identical to the Apple Watch Series 5 but it does come with its nifty features with watchOS 7. Here’s what we think about the Apple Watch Series 6:
Design The Apple Watch Series 6’s design is well the same as before. It looks and feels like an Apple Watch that comes in three materials i.e. aluminium, polished stainless steel and brushed titanium. Our favourite is the Blue aluminium model which we’ve been using as our review unit for the period. Finally, Apple has given us some bright interesting colours for its accessories and the blue variant looks phenomenal.
© MensXP_Akshay Bhalla
The smartwatch has the same always-on display meaning you won’t have to keep twisting your wrist to check the time or notifications. It’s best when you are working out or driving as it’s less distracting and requires one less action. What’s great is that the Apple Watch Series 6’s battery lasts about the same time as its predecessor even with features like Blood Oxygen readings happening in the background.
© MensXP_Akshay Bhalla
The Series 6 comes in two sizes and if you have a large wrist like mine, I would recommend the 44mm variant. If you’ve got slimmer wrists, the larger model is going to look quite awkward on your wrists but thankfully you can get a 40mm version as well. You can either get an LTE variant if you need to make a lot of calls on the go or simply the GPS version if you just need it for notifications and running.
While most of the Apple Watch’s design remains the same, Apple did introduce new Solo Loop bands that we didn’t get the opportunity to check out. Having said that, the Series 6 does come with a silicone strap which also requires you to give Apple the exact measurement of your wrist. To be honest, it’s worth it as you can then simply slide in your wrist into the Apple Watch or slide your wrist out making it far easier to use. Think of it like any ordinary wrist accessory that you may have worn in the past but instead this thing has a smartwatch on it as well.
© MensXP_Akshay Bhalla
The right side of the Apple Watch has the digital crown which you use to navigate and select apps on the Apple Watch. It doubles up as a sensor for the ECG feature as well. The bottom of the smartwatch houses most of the sensors that include the heart-rate monitor, and infrared LEDs for SPO2 readings.
If you like to hike or go climbing, there is also a dedicated watch face complication that uses the barometric altimeter and GPS to track your elevation in real-time. This means you can track in real-time how many flights of stairs you’ve climbed or how high you’ve hiked up on a hill.
Performance The Apple Watch Series 6 comes with the new S6 dual-core chipset based on the A13 Bionic SoC. The smartwatch feels faster than the Apple Watch Series 5 and Apple claims it to be around 20 percent at that. To be honest, the Series 5 was already quite fast but it was surprising to see Apple beat itself at its own game this year.
The Series 6 runs smoothly when navigating or opening apps - a major complaint I’ve had with every other smartwatch. This is what sets any Apple Watch apart from Google Wear devices or even other fitness trackers. If you are going to move from a Fitbit or a Galaxy smartwatch, you will notice a whole new world right away. There’s isn’t lag whenever I get a notification on my phone and the smartwatch, it rings at the same time as I get a call on my phone and it is the best performing fitness wearable device right now. None of these things is done well by any of its competitors which is why Apple Watch is still the king of wearables in our opinion.
In our testing, the Series 6 would last around 15-16 hours on a single charge with always-on display, notifications, phone calls and blood oxygen readings being taken in the background. While its competitor's devices can last up to days, none of them perform as well as the Apple Watch. What good is a smartwatch that can last days but can’t do anything well? However, in the case of the Apple Watch, I don’t mind it not lasting an entire day because it does everything it is supposed to do well. It works throughout the day and only requires charging when you are about to go to bed.
FeaturesWe aren’t going to talk about all the previous features on the Apple Watch Series 6 as they work just as well on the Series 5 and you can read all about it in our review here. To keep it short, it manages all the health tracking metrics well and accurately including heart rate tracking, ECG, breathing and exercise tracking. The only thing you need to know is that Series 6 can do everything faster and more accurately than the Series 5. However, we will talk about the major new features i.e. Blood Oxygen and Sleep tracking that is exclusive to Series 6.
© MensXP_Akshay Bhalla
The SPO2 reading feature on the Apple Watch works in two ways. You can either fire up the application manually or check on your levels from the health app since the Series 6 checks for SPO2 levels automatically in the background at all times. In terms of accuracy, we used a Pulse Oximeter and compared the results with the Apple Watch. In almost every case, the Apple Watch was only 1-2% off in accuracy when compared with the readings taken by the pulse oximeter machine.
© MensXP_Akshay Bhalla
The process for tracking SPO2 is fairly simple as you just need to fire up the app and rest your wrist. 15 seconds later, the watch will display your readings with a percentage. If you are curious, blood levels anywhere between 95% -100% are normal and anything lower means you should check in with your local doctor. Having said that, while the feature works well, there were times we faced problems as we would get a message saying "measurement was unsuccessful” even though we were resting our wrist as indicated. Maybe an update in the future might fix this problem but for now, you need to remain extremely still to get accurate readings.
© MensXP_Akshay Bhalla
The second feature introduced with Series 6 and watchOS 7 is the ability to track your sleep. It’s been a long-requested feature and Apple finally made it happen. It’s quite simple to use and you simply need to set your bedtime in the Health app or the Watch itself. The Apple Watch will automatically go into sleep mode. When you wake up, the Apple Watch will tell you the number of hours you slept and your heart rate throughout the night. Having said that, we would have loved to see the Apple Watch giving us more details about our sleeping patterns such as deep or light sleep and REM.
The third feature that has been added is Series 6’s ability to detect if you are washing your hands. It’s probably the most relevant feature to add on the smartwatch since the COVID-19 pandemic. WatchOS 7’s new hand-washing detection gets triggered automatically when the smartwatch’s microphone picks up the sound of running water and a soap dispenser. The mode will start right away and lasts for 20 seconds. The Apple Watch will notify you when the timer is up indicating that it is safe for you to be done with washing your hands. While it may seem quite pointless to have this feature on the smartwatch but you will be surprised to know how people don’t take washing hands seriously. It may not be a big deal, but this feature was necessary for people who want to stay safe during this pandemic.
The Final SayThere’s no denying the Apple Watch is the best smartwatch on the planet and the Series 6 takes it a bit further. With new valuable features, faster performance and new customisation options, the Apple Watch Series 6 is by far the king of smartwatches and fitness trackers as far as we are concerned. Sure, we would have loved it to look a bit different and have longer battery life, but for an average user, it doesn’t get better than this in 2020.

The Union Minister of India, Amit Shah, turns 56 today and he is one of the indispensable leaders that BJP has. He is also currently serving as the National President of the Bharatiya Janata Party. He has played an important role in the BJP and is also addressed as the modern Chanakya.
From joining the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) at a young age of 14 to being appointed as the Union Home Minister of the country under Prime Minister Narendra Modi's rule, Amit Shah has seen a meteoric rise in his political career.
View this post on InstagramA post shared by (@amitshahofficial)
Born on October 22, 1964, Amit Shah's father Anilchandra Shah used to run a business dealing in PVC pipes. Amit Shah completed his schooling in Mehsana and pursued his graduation in biochemistry from CU Shah Science College in Ahmedabad. For a brief period of time, he handled his father’s business and then worked as a stock broker in Ahmedabad.
It was early in life that he found his way into politics and after joining RSS, he soon became a member of the Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP), the student wing of the RSS. It was in 1982, he met Narendra Modi for the first time. The two came together and things were to change for good.
View this post on InstagramA post shared by (@amitshahofficial)
When Narendra Modi was first appointed the Chief Minister of Gujarat in 2001, Amit Shah also gained popularity. In July 2014, he was appointed as the BJP's national president and he was appreciated for his tactics which changed the wave for BJP’s political ways. He moved the bill to scrap Article 370 in Jammu and Kashmir and also introduced Citizenship Amendment. The two always come together when it comes to taking powerful decisions in the political arena.
View this post on InstagramA post shared by (@amitshahofficial)
Today, Amit Shah is celebrating his 56th birthday and we wonder if there were a biopic on the modern Chanakya, who could possibly play him. And we think these five Bollywood actors will be perfect for the role of the politician.
1. Paresh Rawal View this post on InstagramA post shared by (@pareshrawal1955)
Widely respected for his versatility, he has impressed us with some very powerful performances. We feel he can be perfect for the role of Amit Shah as we have seen him nail the Gujarati accent in the past too and his acting skills need no introduction.
2. Pankaj Tripathi View this post on InstagramA post shared by (@pankajtripathi)
From playing Kaleen Bhaiya to a Guru in Sacred Games, Pankaj Tripathi is a man who can pull off any character with ease. He could also portray Amit Shah as he can add meaning to any character he plays on the big screen.
3. Saurabh Shukla View this post on InstagramA post shared by (@saurabhshuklafilms)
When a biopic on Prime Minister Narendra Modi was announced, people wanted Saurabh Shukla to play the role of Amit Shah because he looks a bit like Amit Shah, and with his power-packed performance, he can take the role to another level.
4. Boman Irani View this post on InstagramA post shared by (@boman_irani)
From Dr. Asthana from Munnabhai MBBS to Virus in 3 Idiots and a politician in Bhoothnath Returns, Boman Irani has always been appreciated for experimenting with his characters. He can surely play the role of Amit Shah and nail it to perfection.
5. Manoj Joshi View this post on InstagramA post shared by (@actormanojjoshi)
Manoj Joshi has already played the role of Amit Shah in the Narendra Modi biopic but he was underutilized in the movie as not many scenes focused on how Amit Shah changed the image of BJP and Narendra Modi. Considering how brilliant an actor Joshi is, he can surely ace the role.
Who do you think is perfect for playing Amit Shah from our list? Have any other names in mind? Let us know in the comments below.

Frizzy hair is quite taxing as the innate nature and the tendency of the hair is dry and dehydrated. The outer layer of the hair, the cuticle, lifts up and it lets the moisture pass through it and makes hair strands swell up.
But, thankfully, you don't have to live with frizz forever. Once you have figured that your hair is too dry, you can try out these effective hacks that will help control the frizz:
1. Say No To Combs © iStock
Combing is one of the most dreadful things for frizzy hair. When you run a comb through your hair, it will be more unkempt than ever.
Instead of fluffing your hair up, use a wide-toothed comb. If that doesn't work for you, you can run your fingers as well. Try this hack as it will keep frizz under control.
2. Wash Your Hair With Lukewarm Water © iStock
When you use hot, styling tools, it can damage your hair follicles. The same way, even cold water or extremely hot water can turn your follicles dry.
Instead, stick to lukewarm water. You'll find the benefit of fighting the frizziness in no time with this hack.
3. Cut Down The Shampoo Frequency © iStock
Frizzy hair can be a hassle, especially when you use chemically filled shampoos on your hair. These shampoos take away your hair's endogenous oil from the scalp and in turn, give dry hair texture.
To combat it, invest in a paraben and sulfate-free shampoo, followed by a hydrating conditioner. Shampoo your hair three times a week.
If you still want to continue the good old fashion of washing the hair daily, skip the shampoo and only use a dab of conditioner on your hair and then rinse it off.
4. A Conditioner Is Gold For Your Hair © iStock
No matter what you do, you can't possibly escape the goodness of a conditioner, when you are dealing with frizzy hair.
In fact, it's a good idea to use a leave-in conditioner for your hair daily, for at least half-hour, since your hair demands hydration and this is the best way out.
Ensure it's not filled with silicones or sulfates and we promise you, your hair will thank you for it.
5. Change Your Pillowcases © iStock
Frizzy hair can't deal with friction, which is why everything that hinders with this hair texture, should be completely avoided.
If the surface of your bed is not suitable for your hair, it will only lead to more frizziness. Trade your cotton pillowcases with silk or satin ones, to keep your hair away from reacting with abrasive surfaces.
6. Do Deep Conditioning © iStock
It looks like a big deal, but it's just one more extra step in your shower caddy. Deep conditioning or using a hair mask is a treatment that you can do at home once a week.
Since these methods penetrate deep into the skin, with natural ingredients, you can typically keep them on longer than your everyday conditioner and reap its benefits.
7. Say No To Heat © iStock
Drying your hair using a blow-dryer every day will only dry up your hair even more. Your scalp will turn weaker and result in breakage.
Instead, opt for air-drying and when you are in rush, you can always stick with a diffuser, which is less aggressive on the hair.

BJP’s claim of ‘free coronavirus vaccination for all’ promise in Bihar just when elections are around the corner has raised many questions in the mind of the people. People are calling the use of the vaccine in the manifesto as the political agenda.
Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman said, announcing the BJP's manifesto for the Bihar election said, "As soon as a COVID-19 vaccine is available for production at a mass scale, every person in Bihar will get free vaccination. This is the first promise mentioned in our poll manifesto.”

Since then people on the internet are saying various things about the elections and how things are moving around it. Now that the elections are taking place amid a pandemic the manifesto is also revolving around the same and some people are not liking it.
This gave birth to a flurry of hilarious memes on social media and here’s what they look like-

Later, Union Minister of State for Health Ashwini Chaubey, who is at the moment in Bihar also faced the same question about free vaccines and said, "The corona vaccine is being made across the world. When it is ready, we have prepared an elaborate plan on distributing the vaccine, who will be given preference etc...Every state will be given a free coronavirus vaccine.”
However, world scientists are still struggling in finding a cure and we are not sure when the vaccine will hit the markets. Till then we have enjoyed the hilarious memes on Bihar elections. Which one is your favorite? Let us know in the comments section below.

It was in 2010 when a 22-year-old Mesut Ozil first gave everyone a glimpse of his impeccable footballing skills. While Germany couldn't go past eventual champions Spain in the semifinals, Ozil left a big impression on the minds of football pundits and fans on the back of his impressive performances.
Thanks to his rise to stardom, the German playmaker secured a lucrative contract with Real Madrid where he spent three years before swapping La Liga for English Premier League (EPL) with a move to Arsenal in 2013. His achievements and feats at Santiago Bernabeu earned him a spectacular reception at the Emirates stadium with the Gunners expecting their new signing to change their fortunes.
© Reuters
An elegant left-footed player blessed with great vision, Ozil dazzled in the Arsenal shirt in the initial years, under then-manager Arsene Wenger, before hitting a slump in form. Owing to his inconsistency on the pitch, Ozil fell out of favour under Wenger's successor Unai Emery - a situation their new manager Mikel Arteta inherited when he took charge last December.
But, despite his past performances, Arteta gave Ozil a start in his first 10 league games in charge before the global pandemic led to the suspension of the Premier League.
Since 7th March, Ozil has not seen a single minute of competitive action. And, despite being Arsenal's highest-paid player, earning a staggering £350,000-a-week in wages, Ozil was not included in Arteta's 25-man squad for the current EPL season.
Dejected by his axing from the 25-man list, Ozil took to social media and penned down an emotional letter expressing his frustration at the club. "This is a difficult message to write to the Arsenal fans that I've played for over the past few years. I'm really deeply disappointed by the fact that I have not been registered for the Premier League season for the time being," Ozil said in a letter he shared on Twitter.
️️ #M1Ö #YaGunnersYa pic.twitter.com/hF7abGklOT
— Mesut Özil (@MesutOzil1088) October 21, 2020
"Upon signing my new contract in 2018, I pledged my loyalty and allegiance to the club that I love, Arsenal, and it saddens me that this has not been reciprocated. As I have just found out, loyalty is hard to come by nowadays. Before the coronavirus break, I was really happy with the development under our new coach, Mikel Arteta - we've been on a positive way and I would say my performances were on a really good level," the letter read.
"But then, things changed, again, and I was no longer allowed to play football for Arsenal. What else can I say? London still feels like home, I still have many good friends in this team, and I still feel a strong connection with fans of this club," he added.
© Reuters
If Ozil's dip in form isn't enough, his recent antics off the pitch, too, have weakened his relationship with the club and fans.
During the pandemic, he was one of three players to refuse to take a 12.5 per cent pay cut which was later reduced to 7.5 per cent after Arsenal qualified for Europe by winning the FA Cup last season.
Last December, the Gunners had also distanced themselves from Ozil's comments on Instagram where he spoke out against China's persecution of the Uighur population - a mostly Muslim Turkic people - by claiming the club "has always adhered to the principle of not involving itself in politics". Thus, many football fans slammed Ozil's heartfelt letter as a mere sympathy-seeking publicity stunt.
Mesut you need to stop playing the victim, If you truly love our club, you would have agreed to move when given the opportunity to leave, rather than collecting Full pay knowing full well that there’s no future st this club for You!
— The Chairman (@goonerck1) October 21, 2020The club have shown their loyalty to you in the shape of £350,000 PER WEEK. If the manager thought you could fit into his team you'd be playing. Arsenal have been ridiculously loyal to you despite your astronomical contract. If you actually cared about Arsenal you'd move clubs.
— janderbend (@janderbend) October 21, 2020Bro @MesutOzil1088 if you aren't wanted....U leave!!!!stop all this PR stunts you are pulling,my country's headache is enough for me for now.whether you played well or not,it was communicated to you that aren't in the coaches plan as a good football player who knows his worth,
— Orlando Innocent #BBnaija (@Straybulletz) October 21, 2020As an Arsenal fan I don’t want you to wear our shirt again. You have been supporting Erdogan and #Azerbaijan in their #WarCrimes against the Armenians in #Artsakh / Nagorno-Karabakh. Arsenal FC and it’s family of fans doesn’t stand for this.
— 🇦🇲 (@hshay77) October 21, 2020Truth be told, Mesut is too greedy, the rest of the team agreed to the pay cut but he didn't, and now he talks about loyalty??? The discussion should be about greed, not loyalty. FOH!
— Properties by WILLSTONE HOMES (@saomba) October 22, 2020You see, this right here is the problem. Always itching to talk. Socratis hasn't said anything about being excluded from either squads.....but you.....always with a point to prove....
— kome lincoln e (@lincblaq) October 21, 2020Arsenal is moving on from Özil. When he finally leaves everyone will forget about him and focus on the Real thing which is Arsenal. Lobatan! 🤷♂️
— PaulAmo (@Paulexy02) October 22, 2020Dear Mesut, nice PR as always unfortunately outside of football you've concentrated more than on the pitch , since your arrival you've had two decent seasons...@adidasfootball dropped you aswell because let's face it your very average now and the football world knows it.
— "Be Excited FC" (@GoonerCraig41) October 21, 2020At USD460,000/week anyone would be "loyal". Didn't he refuse a pay cut at the beginning of the covid19 crisis? Was he loyal then?
— Alexei Ramotar (@AlexeiRamotar) October 21, 2020Had Ozil's performances in the last 3 years been as good as his PR we wouldn't have reached this situation. No player is bigger than the club. Time for us fans to move on.
— Padfoot (@Prakhar_8) October 21, 2020You only have yourself to blame here. If you was loyal to our club you would of walked away in the summer, giving us more financial firepower. You chose money over helping the club and that is what most fans will remember you for.

When we think of actors looking unbelievably young, we often chalk it up to them taking extremely good care of themselves, and going for superexpensive dermatological treatments.

In all honesty, though, there is only so much that good diet and super expensive products and treatments can do. A lot of it also comes down to genes and a person’s style. And boy, is Akkineni Nagarjuna blessed with both.

Even though he turned 61 this August, he doesn’t look a day older than 35. Sure, he may have a few grey hairs on his head, but there are plenty of guys in their 20s who have heads covered with grey.

Yup, this guy, is 61.

Here are just a few photos which prove that Nagarjuna legit stopped ageing the day he turned 35. And trust us, a lot of it has to do with his sense of style and personal grooming.

When was the last time you saw someone over the age of 60, wearing a suit as dope as this? Never? Well, we thought so. Also, guys, this is how you go monochrome with panache.

Another instance where Nagarjuna went monochrome with style was when he wore this deadly pair of shirt and a basic pair of trousers. It almost looks like a jumpsuit, even though this is not a jumpsuit.
What works so well for this outfit is the silhouette of the shirt, which gives it a very technical appeal.

Nagarjuna surely knows how to dress down, while keeping things stylish. Now, normally, dressing down would mean, a basic T-Shirt, with a pair of joggers. However, one of the more stylish ways of dressing down, a dress shirt with a pair of jeans, is a classic, that will never go out of style.

Then there is this outfit that Nagarjuna was seen in. Pinstriped pants with an embroidered dress shirt, minus a pinstripe jacket is dope. If there is ever an evening gathering that you need to go to, and you’re looking for a dope way to style yourself, this is the ensemble to go for.

Looking for a functional but stylish outfit for the beach? How about a pair of basic joggers, and a henley styled half sleeved T-Shirt? Pair it with a pair of espadrilles, or a basic pair of slippers, and you’re all set.

And finally, we have this outfit. Nagarjuna knows the importance of balance, so that is why, with a pair of pants as zany as the one that he’s wearing in this one, he has paired a very simple sweater.
And of course, accessories are important, so a nice watch and a couple of chains ought to tie things up neatly. We also like the blue Prada slip-ons that Nagarjuna has paired with the outfit.
