    Just like filmmakers are copying film plots due to lack of ideas, a lot of TV shows are also inspired by Bollywood films. Honestly, none of these shows impressed the audience and only managed to bore everyone to death.

    So, here is a list of Indian TV Shows that were inspired by Bollywood movies and turned out to be total disasters-
    Love You Zindagi - Inspired from Jab We Met
    Geet from Jab We Met is iconic and no one else except Kareena Kapoor could have done justice to Geet’s character. However, the daily soap Love You Zindagi was loosely inspired from Imtiaz Ali’s film and the show grabbed some attention of the audience for a few days but wasn’t nearly as good as the film.

    Badho Bahu - Inspired from Dum Laga Ke Haisha
    The serial is based on the super hit film Dum Laga Ke Haisha and not just the storyline of the serial but even the poster of the show was also inspired by the film. The daily soap starred Prince Narula and Rytasha Rathore in the lead roles.

    Dil Se Dil Tak - Inspired from Chori Chori Chupke Chupke
    The show is a copy of 2001 hit film Chori Chori Chupke Chupke and starred Sidharth Shukla, Rashami Desai and Jasmine Bhasin in the lead role. The plot of the show revolves around surrogacy and is almost exactly like the film.
     
    Do Hanson Ka Joda - Inspired from Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi
    Shaleen Bhanot’s character and looks bore striking similarities to Shah Rukh Khan’s character in Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi. However, Shaleen denied that the plot was the same. In all honesty, we haven’t watched the serial, but to go by the poster of the serial, it’s a clear giveaway that the serial is loosely inspired by the movie.
    Shaleen Bhanot’s character looks very similar to SRK’s character in Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi but besides that there aren’t many similarities in the plot of the show.

    Pardes Mein Hai Mera Dil – Inspired from Pardes
    The story was based on the Bollywood Blockbuster Pardes and the show starred popular TV actors, Drashti Dhami and Arjun Bijlani. The show was also shot in exclusive locations like Vienna and Innsbruck. However, the show didn’t impress the audience at all.

    The 2020 edition of the Indian Premier League has had a bitter-sweet inception in the United Arab Emirates earlier this month. Even though for the third time in its history the league is taking place outside India, fans are happy to see their favorite cricketers in action once again.
    Due to the coronavirus pandemic and under the given circumstances, there is no doubt that the BCCI and the league’s managerial body are doing their best to provide us with the most entertaining month and a half of fast paced cricket.
    However, after watching the perennially loud, action-packed and colourful league for the last 12 years, a few things have made the IPL viewing experience this season rather uncanny:
    1. No Fans And CheerleadersNo Cheerleaders ..what IPL??

    — Mahua (@mahuadey20) September 19, 2020
    Even when the league went to UAE the first time or when they were in South Africa, no match went by with empty seats. Fans with face paint on, massive banners and cardboard signs, and just the overall ambience of the crowd added life to the matches.
    To not be able to see more than a handful of people in the stands and cheerleaders helping their fans celebrate better is disheartening and definitely leaves a sour taste in the mouth. 
    2. Annoying RecordingsPre recorded fans voice should be removed it's annoying and feels so fake as that we see the empty stadium but this voice feels so annoying .@IPL @ChennaiIPL @mipaltan https://t.co/pTrvm7Lo9m
    — Divya_Dharshini15 (@DDharshini15) September 19, 2020
    While other leagues have also added recordings from previous matches, the fake-fan noises IPL uses already become a little annoying. One of the reasons is the lack of genuine sound effects.
    Even if the batsman sends the ball to a fielder standing inside the circle and takes a single, the background noise is magnified to such an extent as if the player has hit a massive six. At first it used to be funny but now it just feels silly.
    3. No-Ball Siren@IPL @Dream11IPLT20 @StarSportsIndia can you fix this? Watching IPL this year is more like watching video game on TV. No player noise, no bat/ball noise. Too much cheers music !!
    — Navjot Singh (@navi4143) September 20, 2020
    When the no-ball siren buzzed for the first time, it even startled the batsmen and the on-field umpire. The siren is awfully loud and if you are watching the match with your headphones on, you can definitely go deaf.
    On the other hand, while the no-ball siren is supposed to be there to make the lives of the umpires more easy and help them focus better on the other aspects of the game, they have failed to become any more efficient. So, what’s the point of the siren, anyway?
    4. Post Match PresentationMS Dhoni had some nice words to say in the post-match presentation #IPL2020#MIvCSKpic.twitter.com/Dt2mA15hOs
    — CricXtasy (@CricXtasy) September 19, 2020
    To see the ‘Man of the Match’ pick up his own trophy and cheque and stand awkwardly in front of cameras for pictures is disappointingly weird.  Then there is the interview in which the player and the interviewer need to stand so far away that they need two separate cameras to cover both of them. It almost feels as if they are talking to walls.
    To have someone like Harsha Bhogle personally interview the skippers and the Man of the Match, ask them about their on-field experience, and have a heart-to-heart conversation with them is hugely missed.

    During other seasons, players from all over the world fly down to India well ahead of the opening match day and spend a lot of time getting used to the climate, the fields and playing with their teammates.
    This year, however, due to the quarantine period, the players haven’t had the chance to familiarise themselves with the UAE stadiums and it has had a negative impact on many of them, including Chennai Super Kings skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni and Kolkata Knight Riders’ most expensive buy this season, Pat Cummins.

    Men have this perception that most skincare products and good grooming products are astronomically priced and ridiculously expensive. 
    Trust us, they are not. In fact, they seem to be dirt cheap when you compare them to some of the most ludicrous stuff out there.

    A razor worth lakhs of rupees? A cologne worth a gazillion rupees? These are some of the most expensive grooming products one can buy today. 

    Rest assured though, even the top one per cent in India cannot but these without feeling the pinch of it:
    1. A Razor Worth $100,000 Or Rs 73.75 Lakhs © Zafirro
    Yup, you read that right, a razor that costs nearly Rs 74 Lakhs. 

    The razor in question is called the Zafirro Iridium, or simply the Z1. It has a handle made of iridium and blades made of sapphire. Zaffiro guarantees that the blade will “never dull,” meaning that one razor alone should last you a lifetime. Well, at that price point, it better!
    There is also a much cheaper variant available, one that costs Rs 15,000 or roughly $200. In this one, the blades are coated with sapphire, instead of being made from the material.
    2. A Comb Worth $9,500 Or Rs 7 Lakhs © Luxury Trump
    We sure would have loved to be a fly on the wall in the meeting when the idea for this comb was pitched. 

    A Slovakian company named Tomas Veres makes a comb called the Pantheon Comb, officially the most expensive comb in the world. Instead of some exotic wood from an old and rare tree off of some cliff in China or some exotic material like that, this comb is made from a solid block of 14K pink gold. 
    And, as an accessory, you get a small comb ‘case’ which is actually just a sleeve, made from ostrich leather.
    3. A Shaving Brush Worth $770 Or Rs 57,000 © Muhle
    We have always heard that shaving brushes made from natural hair are the best ones, but this one takes things to a whole new level. 

    A company called Mühle makes a limited edition shaving brush, which uses rare oakwood and silver for the handle. As for the bristles, it uses hair from a silvertip badger. 
    This is not the most expensive shaving brush, although they are one most expensive ones you can buy legally.

    A company called Simpsons used to sell shaving brushes made from ivory. Since the ban on the sale of ivory products, a number of their unsold brushes have been sold for as high as $1,600 to $1,800. That’s Rs 1.2 Lakhs to Rs 1.35 Lakhs.

    4. A Bar Of Soap Worth $2,800 Or Rs 2.10 Lakhs © Qatar
    The company that makes this soap is called Qatar, and the soap itself is called Qatar, so that should give you an idea of where things are headed. 

    This soap boasts of no magical qualities for your skin; as the makers of this soap themselves claim that neither does it reduce fine lines or spots or does anything for your skin for that matter. 
    What makes it expensive is then? Well, it is infused with gold & diamond powder. What benefit does that have for the skin, we have no idea. And neither do the people who make them.
    5. A Moisturiser Worth $2,095 Or Rs 1.54 Lakhs © La Mer
    Going by the example set by the bar of soap, one would imagine that the most expensive moisturiser would also have some gold shavings or diamonds in it, right? Well, one would be wrong. 

    It is a simple moisturiser from a company called La Mer. It took 12 years to formulate and make the moisturiser which is called Creme De La Mer, which has ingredients like sea kelp, vitamins, and minerals and takes 3 to 4 months to make one batch. 
    Unlike the Qatar soap, it actually works, and makes the skin firmer, reducing spots and lines.
    6. A Perfume/Cologne worth $435,000 Or Rs 3.21 Crores © Clive Christian
    Finally, we have the most expensive perfume in the world. The Imperial Majesty by Clive Christian costs $435,000 per bottle. 

    The perfume itself is made from cardamom, cedarwood, and mandarin oranges. However, the perfume is not the most exquisite thing about the package here. It is the bottle. The bottle is made of Baccarat crystals and a five-carat white diamond. It also has an exquisite “pendant” made of gold, hanging from its neck. 
    An empty bottle was sold for $220,000 or Rs 1.62 Crores, so you can imagine what obnoxious sums people would pay for the perfume at an auction.

    Apple's online store in India has opened up not too long ago. It was a long time coming and we're glad that we finally have a reliable place to buy Apple products in India.
    Apple's online store in India also gives us access to some of their products that aren't readily available in the market. This includes all the accessories as well.
    We recently checked out some of the most expensive products one can buy from the online Apple store in India. It only makes sense if we take look at all the cheapest products in the store too. So here are five of the cheapest products one can buy from the online Apple Store in India -
    USB-C to USB Adapter - Rs 1,700 © Apple
    Apple's official 'USB-C to USB Adapter' is also one of the cheapest products one can buy from Apple's online store in India. It costs Rs 1,700, which you can choose to pay at once or get it for Rs 200/month. A USB-C to USB Adapter for Rs 1,700? Sure, why not?

    Lightning Cable - Rs 1,700The official lightning cable from Apple also costs Rs 1,700 and it's also one of the cheapest products one can buy from Apple in India.
    USB-C to 3.5mm Headphone Jack Adapter - Rs 900 © Apple
    Yes, this the cheapest product one can buy from the Apple Online Store in India. It's essentially a dongle and it costs Rs 900.

    Apple Watch Solo Loop Strap - Rs 3,900 © Apple
    Apple Watch's official straps are quite expensive but that's understandable because of the quality. Most of the third-party straps aren't durable and as nice as the ones that Apple sells. The new Solo Loop straps that Apple announced recently are already available to buy in India for Rs 3,900.

    iPhone SE Silicone Case - Rs 2,900Lastly, we have the iPhone SE Silicone case for the new iPhone SE 2020 model. This one costs Rs 2,900, which a lot of people think is still a lot for a silicone case. These silicone cases are proven to be quite durable and they're the only ones that come with an Apple logo.
    As you can see, most of the cheapest products on the site are all accessories. Well honestly, you'll only be looking at accessories while talking about "cheap" Apple products. Even some of the accessories like the leather sleeve for the MacBook can cost you as much as Rs 17,900.

    Open-world games are not only exclusive to PCs and consoles as there are plenty of games available to play on Android devices as well. If you’ve got a phone and a bluetooth gamepad, you can get the same experience in the palm of your hands. You don’t really need a gamepad but using one will surely result in a better experience. If you’ve been looking for the best open-world games on Android, check out our list below:

    1. Stardew Valley  © PlayStore
    If you are looking for a full farming simulator experience that has an explorable world and RPG elements, Stardew Valley is a great game to consider. In this game you can plant crops, vegetables, and even get married to another NPC if you want. There’s an entire town where you can befriend people and develop relationships with them. You can explore caves for precious minerals that you can later use to upgrade your tools. This game has everything and we highly recommend playing Stardew Valley if you want to kill some time. 

    2. Minecraft © Mojang
    The highest selling game in the world is also available to play on Android phones where you can explore an infinite world and build structures like simple homes or extravagant mansions. You can either use the creative mode to get your ideas flowing or play in survival mode where you have to avoid zombies and collect minerals from caves. Stardew Valley has definitely taken some inspiration from this game as it also has farming elements, but on a much more advanced level. You can even play with friends on other devices such as Windows 10 and iOS. 

    3. Portal Knights © PlayStore
    This 3D sandbox RPG has everything you would expect from an open-world game. Level up your character and create powerful weapons that you can use to defeat your enemies in real-time action combat. It’s a mix of Zelda and Skyrim but presented in a very cartoonish fashion. Explore dozens of randomly-generated islands and restore peace to a world torn apart by The Fracture.

    4. Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath © PlayStore
    This game already looks like it belongs on consoles and PCs and is by far one of the better looking games on this list. In the undeveloped wastelands of Western Mudos, several settlements are besieged by outlaws. You play as the ‘Stranger’ a bounty-hunter who has a double-barreled critter-firing crossbow. This game is highly recommended by serious Android gamers who want to play a full open-world game on their phones. The game does have intuitive touch controls, but we recommend playing this one with a gamepad.

    5. GTA San Andreas © YouTube
    Who could have thought you can play GTA: San Andreas on your phone right? You play as Carl Johnson who is deeply involved with gangs, drugs and corruption. Set in the 1990s, Carl goes back home to find his mother has been murdered. After his return, corrupt cops try to frame him for the murder of his mother. He is then forced on a journey that takes him across the entire state of San Andreas, to save his family and to take control of the streets.

    Bollywood films offer more than just star casts, dhinchak item numbers and cool action scenes. There have been numerous Bollywood movies over the years which are dominated by impressive performances, great stories and beautiful songs which instantly made it to our personal playlists.
    Now apart from being highly memorable songs, these also played a major role in introducing their audience to some iconic Indian landmarks and immortalising them just like their music. Here are 5 such Indian landmarks and tourist spots which were grafted into public memory, thanks to these superhit Bollywood songs.
    1. Marine Drive - IktaraThis song is a favorite of thousands and much like the lyrics and music of this song from Wake Up Sid, even the breezy picturisation on the Marine Drive caught everyone’s attention.

    2. Rohtang Pass - Yeh Ishq HayeWho can ever forget Geet aka Kareena’s enthusiastic dance moves as she twirled through the snow-laden passages of Rohtang Pass in Jab We Met? Trust us, many have tried to recreate it over the years.

    3. Jama Masjid - ArziyanThis soulful AR Rahman composition sung in the praise of the lord is beautifully captured in this song from Delhi-6 which was shot in the premises of Jama Masjid. Simply amazing to say the least.

    4. Vidyadhar Garden - DhadakDhadak may have given people a number of songs to hum, but its title track had the special touch to it since it was shot at a great location in Jaipur. The scenes from the song featuring Jhanvi and Ishaan truly makes one feel like giving this garden a personal visit.

    5. Dal Lake - Jiya ReWho can forget a zesty Anushka Sharma dancing on a boat in the middle of the Dal Lake in the song from Jab Tak Hai Jaan? This was a fun song, and the location only added to the charm of this peppy number.

    Let us know what other songs we should add to this list in the comments below.
