    Farhan Akhtar, in addition to his impressive acting skills and exuding different avatars, is also sartorially quite advanced. Even if he steps out in the most understated manner, his style sense hits the right nerve.

    This time too, for his recent appearance, Farhan was seen wearing high-top sneakers that made a jaw-dropping statement.

    Check it out here:

    Coming to the rest of his outfit, Farhan wore a basic white T-shirt and topped it off with a blue hoodie. 

    We also like this choice of grey harem shorts that pair well with his overall garb. 
    As for his bag, he was seen carrying a duffle, instead of a messenger or man-purse, which is again a unique addition, we have to say.
    Overall, the man has certainly cracked the street-style code and we can't help but laud his choices here.

    Lately, the internet has been the most wholesome place as people have started showing an immense amount of support for local vendors by choosing to give them their business instead of big corporations.
    The new movement is not only helping out a lot of people in need but also uniting the people of the country for a great cause and bringing in a sense of camaraderie.
    The current status of ‘Bhabha da dhaba’. All thanks to beautiful people. There are always such small shops near you. Help them. Let them serve you. Go local go small. pic.twitter.com/iiN6DfDwTx

    After Baba Ka Dhaba in Malviya Nagar became the hottest place to eat in South Delhi, more and more people started sharing the stories of several local vendors from their area and I really hope this movement only grows and gets better.
    Last week, people came together to help Chhanga Lal Baba, an 86-year-old man from Faridabad who is selling Bhelpuri for just 5 bucks to earn money. 
    Now, people have rallied together to support an old Delhi couple selling tea to survive after going through something really traumatic.
    View this post on InstagramThanku all luvly people for the support to this dada dadi....it is really painful to see them in this condition...god bless everyone..keep supporting keep helpingA post shared by (@foodyvishal)
    The 70-year-old baba and amma were tortured and abused by their kids and the old man has sustained physical injuries as his hand and back are fractured. 
    Shedding light on their story, a guy named Vishal Sharma, who goes by @foodyvishal on Instagram, talked to them and found out that it was actually their son who assaulted them and driven them out of their house.
    Their daughter came to their rescue and helped them set up the tea stall. Vishal not only listened to their tragic story, but also did anything he could to help them out.
    View this post on InstagramWe came to know about 70 year old baba n amma selling tea near Sector-13 Dwarka, Delhi . there condition is very bad right now and baba hand and backbone is fractured . They are currently selling tea and customers are not coming to them.. please help them by any support you can give.. #HELPTHEM #70yearold #foodvloggersA post shared by (@foodyvishal)
    From buying chips, namkeen, biscuits, to getting tea packets and milk, along with other food essentials, he even handed them Rs 10,000 to help them out.
    He also asked people to help them out if they can and fortunately, the story ended up being shared widely, with celebrities like Mahima Chaudhry and Chitrangada Singh extending their support.

    The coronavirus pandemic made most of us go through a hard time but it also taught us to help others as much as we can. Recently, a video of an elderly man crying as he is not able to sell enough food and earn money had gone viral on social media. However, people on social media were kind enough to do something about it and the Dhaba was later flooded with customers.

    Now, actor Aparshakti Khurana is the latest one to visit the ‘Baba Ka Dhaba’ in Malviya Nagar, New Delhi. He posted a picture of himself at the dhaba on Instagram along with baba and YouTube blogger Gaurav Wasan, who had initially showcased the plight of the elderly couple running the dhaba.
    He took to Instagram saying, “Promised Gaurav Wasan that we would have kuchh at Baba Ka Dhabha when I’ll be in Delhi and we finally did! Had the bestttt matra paneer everrr!!Gaurav aap par Gaurav hai Hum sab ko for what you’ve done for Baba.”
    Check out the post here-

    In an interview, Aparshakti said, “It was an amazing experience to eat at Baba ka Dhaba. Baba was happily feeding everyone. He is so pure. People were blessing him a lot. I had matar paneer there and it was so tasty. Baba’s reaction was amazing. He is so cute! His smile is worth a million dollars.”
    View this post on InstagramMeet Mukul and Tushant! Two young boys who come at 6 AM sharp, everyday at #BabaKaDhaba to help Baba and his wife. I am moved by their selflessness and relentless support for #BabaKaDhabha. Also, we all have many similar Baba Ka Dhabhas around us. Maybe we can learn from Mukul and Tushant and add some joy in the lives of people who need it the most? 💝A post shared by (@aparshakti_khurana)
    “I genuinely feel very happy to say that Baba Ka Dhaba is a place where you have to wait and often, it will be all sold-out. When Gaurav had first covered this place, I had promised him that whenever I am in Delhi, I will visit the dhaba with him. I kept my word on this recent trip. I can’t begin to describe how good the food was. I don’t remember the last time I had five rotis for lunch. The matar paneer was reminiscent of my granny’s cooking. I could only get so much. Baaki to ji sab khatam ho gaya tha!,” he added.

    He also expressed how two boys named  Mukul and Tushant have been helping the couple for weeks now. While telling this, he said, “It’s no big deal that I went there and I ate and took a picture. The bigger deal is what those two boys are doing. They are wholeheartedly dedicating time to this couple at the dhaba, helping them with the work because the place is full from morning to night. And this couple does not want charity. They want to work and earn. Imagine how hard the man must have worked for 60-70 years in his life to finally get some recognition for his craft at 80. They don’t want donations. They just want people to come and eat at their joint and pay them for their hard work. I have immense respect for them, for their spirit and their passion to earn what they get.”

    There's a lot of banter about 5G with smartphone manufacturers churning out 5G handsets in the market. No, 5G hasn't yet rolled out in India and we don't think that's changing for at least another year. But we do have some news to share about 5G in India.
    Jio has announced a huge milestone in bringing India closer to 5G than ever before. In its 5G trial using Qualcomm's 5G platform, Jio has successfully achieved speeds excess of 1Gbps. Jio leveraged Qualcomm's technology to develop a 5G RAN (Radio Access Network) product that helped them achieve speeds that are unheard of in Indian cellular history.
    © Reuters
    Speaking at the Qualcomm 5G summit, Mathew Oommen, President of Reliance Jio Infocomm, confirmed that this product is already tested by a Tier-1 carrier in the US.

    “We are excited about working with Qualcomm Technologies in developing new generation cloud native 5G RAN technology that is truly open and software defined. The development of secure RAN solutions with Qualcomm Technologies combined with Jio Platforms and scale provides the ideal combination for local manufacturing and for accelerating the realization of Atmanirbhar Bharat for an inclusive 5G nation,” he said.
    © Qualcomm
    Currently, only a handful of nations like the US, South Korea, Australia, Switzerland, and Germany are able to showcase 1 Gbps speeds for 5G customers. This latest move, however, marks the potential entry of Jio and India into the 5G club.

    That being said, it's worth pointing out that this is just a 5G speed trial by Jio and Qualcomm. Though a successful one, it doesn't mean Jio is ready to deploy 5G services in the country. We still have to wait for the public 5G trials in India. 5G has a tantalizing potential to change the way we use various technologies in a more meaningful way and we certainly can't wait for that.

    Apple is harshly being criticised for not accompanying the iPhone 12 with a charger or earphones. In fact, even the older iPhone will now be sold without a charger or a pair of earphones in the box. The company says it's a decision to reduce its carbon footprint.
    While people are still divided over this particular decision, a lot of manufacturers have come forward to mock Apple. But we think one of the best responses to this came from Xiaomi. Here's what Xiaomi tweeted -
    We unboxed the #Mi10TLite - Atlantic Blue variant You'll get all the essentials, just with less plastic waste. Starting in Europe, we've committed to reducing plastic packaging by about 60%. pic.twitter.com/ai1yq3YR92
    — Xiaomi (@Xiaomi) October 20, 2020
    Xiaomi is clearly taking a jibe at Apple here with this particular tweet. That being said, we like what Xiaomi has decided to do. Instead of removing an essential accessory from the box, Xiaomi has decided to reduce plastic from its packaging. The company says it has decided to reduce plastic packaging by about 60-percent from its phones starting in Europe.
    We think this is much better to show your commitment to saving the environment without upsetting your customers or costing them more money. Not to mention, Xiaomi's solution will also help them save money on packaging. Other in-box accessories like the charger, earphones, and a TPU case are still very much present inside the box.

    Xiaomi is definitely making most of the controversy but they're also doing things in a more sensible way. What do you think about Xiaomi's response? Do you think it makes more sense than what Xiaomi is trying to do? Let us know by dropping a line in the comments below.

    The trailer of Manoj Bajpayee, Diljit Dosanjh, and Fatima Sana Shaikh-starrer Suraj Pe Mangal Bhari is out. Directed by Abhishek Sharma, Suraj Pe Mangal Bhari is set in the 90s and narrates the story of Suraj Singh Dhillon, who is in search of a perfect or call her the sanskaari bride for himself. The film has been slated for a November 13 release in theatres.
    In the trailer, you see how Diljit’s character is looking for his bride and how Manoj’s character who plays the role of a detective is determined to ruin it for him. Manoj Bajpayee’s character investigates potential grooms on behalf of the girl’s family. In order to teach Manoj’s character a lesson, Diljit’s character Suraj chooses to hit on his sister, played by Fatima. 
    Here’s the trailer:

    Director Abhishek told PTI, “The film is set in the 90s. We have Manoj sir playing a wedding detective, who does a background check of grooms, which was a norm during those times. There was a time when there was no mobile phone or social media and people had to deal with everything physically. It is very much in the vein of films made by Hrishikesh Mukherjee and Basu Chatterjee. It is a clean family-comedy. It is a funny film but not slapstick. It is a social satire.” He added, “It points towards the rashi (zodiac sign), kundali (horoscope), that we talk about more during a wedding. At the same time, it is about the cat and mouse between Suraj, which is played by Diljit and Mangal, essayed by Manoj sir.”
    People are loving the trailer and here are five reasons why they are recommending it.
    1. Deadly Combination Of Diljit Dosanjh and Manoj BajpayeePeople are loving the power-packed performances by Diljit Dosanjh and Manoj Bajpayee and it’s surely a deadly combination to look out for. People are loving how the two talented actors are leaving no stone unturned to make this movie a perfect watch for Diwali.

    2. A Bevvy Of Talented Actors In One FrameThe film’s ensemble cast includes Diljit Dosanjh, Manoj Bajpayee, Fatima Sana Shaikh, Annu Kapoor, Manoj Pahwa, Seema Pahwa, Supriya Pilgaonkar, Nehha Pendse, Manuj Sharma, Neeraj Sood, Abhishek Banerjee, Vijay Raaz, Karishma Tanna, Vanshikha Sharma among others. People are happy to see such deserving actors in one movie.

    3. Non-Nepotistic MoviePeople are also appreciating the fact that the actors in the movie don’t have any filmy roots and are hoping that it becomes a blockbuster.

    4. Entertaining DialoguesCertain dialogues in the trailer have already become a hit among the masses and they also think it will be enough material for the memes. They are finding them entertaining and are rooting for the movie.

    5. Comedy GenrePeople are appreciating the fact that they will get to see a good movie in the comic space after Lootcase and are eagerly waiting to watch Diljit and Manoj nail it.

    Kartik Aaryan walked the virtual runway for Manish Malhotra's Ruhaaniyat collection for Lakmé Fashion Week, through a film. 
    For Manish Malhotra's virtual show, which was in collaboration with Mijwan Foundation, he presented his collection Ruhaaniyat, this season.

    Kartik Aaryan who will next be seen in Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2, Dostana 2 has been mindful of the ongoing Unlock restrictions and has only stepped out when deemed necessary. 

    This is apparent through his new hair, which has now become a shoulder-length hairstyle that he flaunted yesterday as well.
    Take a look at his outfit here:

    Manish Malhotra and Lakmé Fashion Week partnered with Mijwan artisans through a fund-raising opening show presentation to support them. 

    The collection also happens to be a tribute to artisans and craftsmen and celebrates 10 years of the designer’s association with the Mijwan Foundation. 
    View this post on InstagramA soul filled experience which brings together an amalgamation of emotions that celebrates our heritage, our artisans, the ones who have treasured and preserved our craft for generations to come.

With embellished fabrics that have the fine golden detailing of the zari work finely woven at the corners, the hand quilted textiles were seen in hues of teal, pistachio green, dusky pink, grey, maroon, black, and white.
    Using Mashru, velvets, and muslin in menswear we saw traditional kurtas, khada dupattas, jama angarkhas, and heavy shawls. Adding to the charm, was the Manish Malhotra jewellery line. 
    Kartik Aaryan is seen wearing two studded neckpieces. Over-all, he is wearing 9 layers of studded chains. The handcrafted jewellery was crafted in gold with flat cut diamonds, Russian and Zambian emeralds, and pearls as can be seen on the actor.

    Commenting on MM's Ruhaaniyat collection, Kartik Aaryan said, “This is the first thing I’m doing in the last seven months of lockdown, primarily because this collection has got a larger purpose and has a noble cause attached to it and through this, I want to show my full support for this initiative. It supports artisans, and I applaud the Mijwan Welfare Society, Lakmé Fashion Week, and Manish Malhotra World for this beautiful initiative.”

    It is definitely one of the collections to look out for the upcoming weddings in the 'new normal'.

    People who follow fashion and style trends in India will know just what kind of a hallmark of an event the Lakme Fashion Week is. 
    This year, though, things looked rather bleak and for good reasons. There is the pandemic, of course, but there is also the economic slowdown that we’re going through.
    © Instagram/lakmefashionwk
    In this regard, a digital, or rather a ‘phygital’ event makes more sense. But, it is not just the COVID pandemic that makes digital formats and fashion films more lucrative.

    © Instagram/lakmefashionwk
    Here are 6 ways, that fashion films, and digital formats may be a blessing in disguise, and perhaps, just what the fashion industry in India needed:

    1. A Step Towards The Future © Instagram/lakmefashionwk
    Experts believe that digital formats and fashion films were in the pipeline, much before the pandemic hit. 

    Jaspreet Chandok, Head – Lifestyle Businesses, IMG Reliance, says, “We actually began our journey towards being a digital platform many years back so some of the actions were already in the works when the pandemic hit. We were the first in the world to Live Stream on OTT networks also creating innovations in social media actions and virtual reality.”
    2. Convenience Of Serious Buyers © Instagram/lakmefashionwk
    A phygital Fashion Week will allow serious fashion buyers to operate in a much more convenient way, as opposed to physical fashion weeks. 

    This is even more true for people who usually are unable to physically visit fashion weeks.
    3. Better ReachAs crowded as physical fashion events may seem to be, their reach, obviously is very limited. This time around though, the organisers of the Lakme Fashion Week 2020 have some mind-boggling numbers in mind. 
    Jaspreet says, “Our reach today totals 50 million+ consistently across our channels. So, in our eyes, we had already democratised fashion even before the pandemic hit. With the first-ever digital edition of Lakmé Fashion Week, we are sure to cater to more audiences who could not be a part of the event on-ground. We are also expecting to attract a lot of buyers and consumers from across the globe.”
    4. Better Medium And Better Narratives © Instagram/lakmefashionwk
    Fashion films as a medium, allow designers to present their work in a far better way, both in terms of the ability to set a narrative that they want to, and to highlight certain details of their work. 

    Aneeth Arora, of Pero, says, “with the format moving to a film, the creative freedom is on us as to how we want to express our designs and our aesthetics. This definitely is one of the biggest advantages as now our work will be documented and can be accessed anytime around the world. We also have the ability to showcase the smallest of details which would fail the naked eye in a split second on stage.” 
    The only challenging part, Aneeth says, is fitting everything, one’s thoughts, as well as the clothes they have made, in a 10-minute film.
    5. A More Professional Approach To Indian Fashion © Instagram/lakmefashionwk
    People who have attended fashion shows how people sitting in the front row behave, watching the entire show through their phones. For most of the first-rowers, it’s all about an Instagram story. A digital fashion helps get rid of that and helps keep things professional and orderly. 

    Furthermore, a virtual platform makes it necessary for everything to be spot on - there is very little scope for errors. Lakshmi Rana, a model, says, “digital has a massive reach, there are more and more people watching us than in a live show. Hence, it is important for us to be as good if not better on camera. Nothing comes in our way of being serious and being professional, in that regard.”
    6. Artisans, Sustainable Fashion, & Other Core Issues Get The Spot Light © Reuters
    Fashion films and digital platforms allow the designers to weave in some significant, core issues into the narrative, that otherwise wouldn’t have been difficult. 

    Take Manish Malhotra’s opening show for the Lakme Fashion Week 2020, for example. A significant portion of the presentation for his collection, Ruhaaniyat, was devoted to the artisans of the Mijwan Foundation, an organisation that facilitates employment opportunities for destitute women.
    When it comes to sustainability, the main conversation in fashion weeks has been about using sustainable materials and fabrics, but not on sustainable practices. 
    Designers and manufacturers have the perfect opportunity to steer the conversation towards a more impactful direction.

    It seems like Apple has overtaken the tech conversation this month with various new products launching all over the world. Thanks to the interest, even new leaks are coming up online and yesterday we reported about what to expect from the iPhone 13. 
    © MensXP_Akshay Bhalla
    Apple has been reportedly working on expanding its portfolio and new leaks have emerged about an upcoming update for the AirPods Pro. The second generation of AirPods Pro is expected to retain all the existing features such as active noise cancellation, water-resistance and even the silicon tips. However, the newly added feature as suggested by leaks may not be an upgrade you would have been expecting. 

    © MensXP_Akshay Bhalla
    Leaks from Twitter user LeaksApplePro emerged today who claims that the next generation of AirPods Pro will not only have all the features mentioned before but also new ambient light sensors. The AirPods Pro 2 will also have improved battery life and is expected to sell for the same price as the current AirPods Pro. 

    AirPods Pro gen 2
    -249$
    -Better battery life
    -A bit better of noise cancelling.
    -Ambient light sensors.
    Overall, a not so great update, more of like the AirPods gen 2 over AirPods gen 1.
    Expect them to release in Q4 2021 or Q1 2022.
    — LeaksApplePro (@LeaksApplePro) October 19, 2020
    While it may not seem like a huge upgrade on paper, it would be worth pointing out what these ambient light sensors will be used for. It may seem like an odd choice at first however the new sensors will help the AirPods Pro to track health and fitness-related data. The new AirPods won’t be the first wireless earbuds to have this feature but it will be a first for Apple. Needless to say, the new AirPods Pro will have some functionality with the Health app as well where all the data will be stored for users to access later on. 
    © MensXP_Akshay Bhalla
    There have been previous rumours that suggest the AirPods Pro 2 will also be able to support air gestures via optical sensors, however that seems a bit far-fetched right now. If this feature is included in the AirPods Pro 2 for some reason, it would mean Apple has much bigger plans for their TWS earphones in the near future. 

    Here comes the bad news though, the leak suggests the new AirPods Pro 2 will not launch before Q4 2021 alongside the next iPhone or Q1 2022. Which means we have at least one full year to wait and possibly even more. Apple is also reportedly working on new over-the-head AirPods Studio headphones about which you can read in detail, here.
