    We all know that Sony has been having difficulty launching the PlayStation 5 (PS5) in India. However, it seems like there might be some headway now. The Mako Reactor spotted release date information by Sony on its website even though we are yet to get official word from the Indian operations division of the Japanese company.

    Sony India updated the website as of today, listing November 19th as the launch day for the PS5 in India. Prices for the two consoles have not been revealed yet and we may just get more information about the Indian prices soon. Recently Sony India was in a massive kerfuffle with a person from Delhi who apparently held the trademark for “PS5” in India. It isn’t clear if the situation has been resolved. However, it did not stop Sony India from updating their website today.

    Having said that, Sony has not officially confirmed the launch date of the console yet and we have reached out to Sony PlayStation India for official confirmation of the launch date as suggested by the website update. Recently, all of Sony PlayStation India’s official social media handles were getting bombarded with queries about the state of PS5’s India launch. 

    The PlayStation 5 is slated to launch on November 19th worldwide and it could be possible that Sony may just launch the console in India on that same date as well. The PlayStation 5 will be available via eight retailers namely Amazon, Flipkart, Reliance Digital, Games The Shop, ShopAtSc.com, and Tata Croma. There is no news whether the new consoles will be available via smaller retailers as of now. 
    The Mako Reactor also speculates that pre-orders for the console may begin even before the official price has been revealed. As for availability, the same report suggests that retailers are optimistic of the PS5 making it here as per the late 2020 release window, but have not been informed by Sony of any new developments just yet.”

    If we ignore the entire boycott episode with a certain brand, the internet has been the most wholesome place these past few days and it's honestly, very heartwarming to see people coming together and supporting everyone in need.
    The viral story of Baba Ka Dhaba highlighted a huge issue that is going on right now. A lot of street vendors are left with not a lot of business, especially in the current pandemic, and there are so many hardworking people struggling to survive during these tough times.
    This video completely broke my heart. Dilli waalon please please go eat at बाबा का ढाबा in Malviya Nagar if you get a chance #SupportLocal pic.twitter.com/5B6yEh3k2H

    But, successfully making Baba Ka Dhaba as the new hottest place in Delhi started a movement of sorts, where people are showing way more support for local street vendors because let's be real, they deserve the money more than big corporations.

    Instead of opting for McDonald's or Pizza Hut, people are more inclined to buy and support roadside vendors and it's a change brought upon by the power of the internet that everyone can stand behind.

    The latest viral baba is Chhanga Lal Baba, an 86-year-old man from Faridabad who is selling Bhelpuri for just 5 bucks to earn money. 

    His story was shared by Vishal Chaubey who urged people to visit his food stall if possible.

    He even shared the proper location so people can go and have some bhelpuri - "opposite Sector 37 community centre, (Faridabad Pincode 121003) near chai ki shop k pas baba ka chalta firta chota sa vehicle".
    Reportedly, after his wife and son passed away, he and his daughter-in-law are the only earning members who support the family of 6, which includes his other son who is paralyzed, and three children. 

    Together they earn Rs 6,000 every month out of which, Rs 1,200 is spent on rent and the rest goes into necessities like food and medicines. 
     

    He said, 
    "Only God knows how I managed to survive in this pandemic. In the lockdown, we got ration once or twice while there was no financial help." © Facebook
    Luckily, his story is out there now and people are finding ways to help him in any way they can.

    While recognising and then coming to terms with the signs of mental health troubles can seem pretty difficult in itself, we can only imagine how tough it might get to open up to somebody else and lay bare the troubles and worries that are weighing on your mind.
    Though it is understandable if this is the case when you’re trying to open up to a friend, the same shouldn’t be the case when trying to share things related to your mental health with your parents. But who are we kidding, it seems like one of the scariest things you may have had to do.

    Since we know how important yet how sensitive it might be for one to talk things through with their parents, we got in touch with Ms Ila Kulshrestha who is a licensed clinical psychologist and a CID- UNESCO certified Arts based Therapist to guide you on how to best broach the topic with your parents.

    Ms Kulshreshtha says, 
    “Talking to parents can be intimidating and scary for a number of reasons such as, not being sure if they will understand, not wanting to upset/disappoint them and even due to confusion about how to articulate our struggles and challenges so they can understand better.”Because the subject is sensitive for all the parties involved and we want to eliminate any possibility of misunderstanding (or keep it to a minimal level), Ms Kulshreshtha shared some tips for how to have a conversation with parents regarding mental health.

    1. Don’t be rushed and pick a time of the day with enough free time.

    2. Privacy is key. Choose a location inside or outside the house where you feel comfortable and safe. It helps to know that you are not likely to be interrupted or overheard by someone else.
    3. Choose a quiet, comfortable space.
    4. Pick a method of communication that works for you and feels comfortable - phone, text, face to face. All first conversations don’t have to start off as face to face conversations. See what you feel comfortable with and what will allow you to share maximum information without getting nervous.

    5. Let them know if any of their questions make you uncomfortable and you are not ready to answer just yet politely. Don’t feel pressured to have all the answers.

    6. Communicate what you expect from them after having received this information from you. Let them know how you would like to be supported in your recovery journey.
    7. Don’t expect too much from one conversation. Learning about mental health concerns is a process and it may take all of you a few conversations.
    These really are just the initial steps you could take to introduce the subject and talk about your struggles with your parents. As difficult as it may seem, we need to remember that our family needs to be in the know of our state of mental well-being. That will not only put us at ease but also help our family to support us better in dealing with the issues at hand.

    Football and cricket are arguably the most popular sports in the world. Whether it's the international events or club competitions, both the sports have a tendency to garner public interest like no other. But, what happens when the stars of the two distinctive sports come together. Well, magic happens.
    Virat Kohli, the undisputed batting king of cricket, and Pep Guardiola, one of the top football managers in the world, brought football and cricket fans together in a one-of-its-kind live session on Instagram. The duo spoke on numerous topics in a session that was cherished by over 3 million viewers on Instagram.
    For someone who grew up in Catalonia in Spain, Guardiola, owing to his exposure, was possessed by the magic of football and barely knew anything about cricket. However, in 2016, when he moved to England as Manchester City's new manager, the Spaniard got to see an awful lot of the gentleman's game which fuelled his curiosity.
    View this post on InstagramIn conversation with @Pepteam, all thanks to @PumaIndia 🙌🏼A post shared by (@virat.kohli)
    Still struggling to understand the nitty-gritties of cricket, Guardiola said: 
    "I come from Catalonia where cricket is played but here in England, it is an important sport. I try to follow it through the TV sometimes or I have some friends who play. You can play three days in a row and still, it's a draw. I can't understand this".The Man City boss also went on to urge the Indian captain to help him understand cricket the next time they watch a game together. 
    "It must be an attractive sport in some way but you need to understand it. Next time we have to watch a football and cricket game together. I want to learn your game and promise me it’s going to happen," he told Kohli.

    The Indian batting sensation also posed a query to Guardiola asking him what he looks at while signing a player - skill or character. 

    "We see the skills (while signing a player) but we should see the character. The character actually makes the difference — to be competitive and more hungry to be able to put the bad moments aside, when you are able to find this as much as possible in the squad you have a winning team. Skill is not enough to win in higher competitions. But when you buy them you don’t know them," Guardiola said.
    The Spanish football manager also spoke about the feeling of playing behind closed-doors in empty stadiums without any fanfare. 
    "Without people, it's not the same. It feels like a friendly game. We must do it, the show must go on! We need the people to come back to the stadiums when everything is safe. It feels very different without them. We miss the fans. Playing closed behind the scenes is weird," Guardiola admitted.

    On the work front, Kohli is currently busy leading the charge of Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in the ongoing edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL). His team is currently placed third in the points table with five wins in seven matches. They're set to face Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) on 15th October in their next match.

    For Guardiola, the ongoing season has proved to be a topsy-turvy affair so far. His Manchester City side is currently languishing at the 14th spot in the Premier League table with one win, one loss and as many draws in three matches so far. Despite beginning their campaign with a 3-1 win over Wolves, City got hammered 5-2 by Leicester City before a 1-1 draw against Leeds United. They will now host Arsenal on 17th October.

    Last year, the most surprising and weird meme was the JCB Excavator. 

    It was a great time when everyone was wondering why millions of people were watching random videos of a JCB excavator digging online. That became an entirely new phenomenon.

    Now, the JCB excavator is back in the spotlight, kind of, because one man decided there's a better use for it than, you know, digging.

    A video of a man using the heavy-duty machinery to scratch his back is both hilarious yet anxiety-inducing. 
    As soon as the video was shared on Facebook, it started receiving attention just because of how ridiculous it was.

    That's quality content right there. 
    The best solution ever.

    When it comes to personal style and fashion, we rarely consider talking about ethnic wear. 

    Traditional Indian clothing for men is not casual and is rarely worn on an everyday basis. However, when it comes to special occasions, ethnic wear is the best choice for any Indian man.
    A common myth surrounding ethnic wear is that putting together an ethnic outfit is an easy task that requires minimal to no effort. Well, that’s not always true. 
    Styling Indian clothes and putting together a great outfit is not as easy as it seems. Sometimes we make mistakes that we aren’t even aware of.
    Today, that is exactly what we will address. Here are some common style mistakes that most Indian men make while dressing up in ethnic wear.

    For a team that, for the major part of their existence, has been labelled as perennial losers, Delhi Capitals (DC) have succeeded in proving the naysayers wrong in recent time. A disastrous 2018 season saw them undergoing a major overhaul and the results are quite clear.
    Under the leadership of a young Shreyas Iyer and tutelage of Ricky Ponting as head coach, Delhi romped their way to the Playoffs stage in the 2019 IPL season for the first time in seven years. Carrying their brilliant form this year, Delhi has once again looked in a class of their own with six wins in eight matches so far in the ongoing edition of the IPL.
    Boasting a team that has got the perfect mix of Indian and overseas players, Delhi's title challenge in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) is undeniably bolstered by numerous match-winners in their line-up. 
    Shreyas Iyer has been in good form with the willow. Marcus Stoinis has proved more than efficient in his role as an all-rounder. And, Kagiso Rabada has been effective in his role as their bowling spearhead.

    But, the obvious names aren't the only ones responsible for Delhi's success this season. In fact, despite bowling alongside one of the best seamers in international cricket, Anrich Nortje has done tremendously well to match his South African teammate in every stride. 

    While Rabada continues to lead the list of leading wicket-takers with 18 wickets this season, Nortje, too, has 10 wickets to his name in eight games, so far.
    In their recent 13-run win against Rajasthan, Rabada, once again, proved to be a little too hard for the opposition to negate. But, it was Nortje who, despite being a bit expensive (8.25 runs an over), took two key wickets of Jos Buttler (22) and Robin Uthappa (32) to derail Rajasthan's chase.
    For a seamer who relies on his lightning-quick speed and boasts of a mean bouncer, Nortje lived up to his reputation after bowling the fastest delivery in the history of the IPL last night. During Rajasthan's run-chase, the right-arm seamer clocked an unbelievable 156.22 kmph (97 mph) on the speed gun to shatter the previous record.

    His very next delivery, one that dismissed Buttler, was also bowled with searing pace, clocked at 155.1 kmph. While many continue to label Jofra Archer as the fastest bowler in IPL, Nortje, to everyone's surprise, has as many as five deliveries in the list of top 10 fastest balls bowled in IPL history. 
    In fact, the top three fastest deliveries recorded in IPL history have been bowled by Nortje himself. Apart from the two deliveries he bowled last night (top 2 in the fastest deliveries list), Nortje has another ball, he bowled at 154.74 kmph, recorded as the third fastest in the elite list. 
    The fourth-fastest delivery, a 154.40-kmph screamer, was bowled by Dale Steyn in the list. His South African teammate Rabada occupies the fifth spot with a delivery recorded at 154.23 kmph. The last five slots in the list are occupied by Nortje (154.21 kmph), Rabada (153.91 kmph), Nortje (153.72 kmph), Archer (153.62 kmph) and Pat Cummins (153.56 kmph).

    Hailing from a small town of Uitenhage, north of Port Elizabeth, which is home to the largest Volkswagen factory in the African continent, Nortje, for obvious reasons, is well-acquainted with speed. But, it's his pin-point accuracy and precision which adequately supports his pace to carry out an effective fast-bowling attack against opposition batsmen.

    The South African was roped in by Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) last season, but a shoulder injury ruled him out of the tournament. He was contracted by Delhi ahead of the ongoing season as a mere replacement for English all-rounder Chris Woakes. But, as it turned out, Nortje is not just a replacement, he's an outright match-winner for Delhi, bowling in tandem with Rabada in a partnership that has claimed a combined 28 wickets, so far, this season.
