    Tollywood superstar Vijay Deverakonda, best known across the country for his smashing performance in Arjun Reddy enjoys massive popularity for his acting chops on-screen. Having already established himself as a promising hero in the Telugu film industry with films such as Pelli Choopulu, Mahanati, Geetha Govindam, Taxiwala and of course Arjun Reddy, Vijay is now reportedly all set to make his Bollywood debut.

    As per a TOI report, rumours are abuzz that Vijay will be making his Hindi debut with a film on Balakot airstrikes which is being backed by filmmaker Sanjay Leela Bhansali and Bhushan Kumar. The script has reportedly been written by Kedarnath director Abhishek Kapoor, who will also be directing the film.

    As per initial reports, it is being claimed that the film will highlight the achievements of the Indian Air Force and the successful airstrike it carried out on terrorist launch pads at Balakot. The story will also follow how during Pakistan’s retaliation move following the airstrike, IAF WIng Commander Abhinandan Varthaman was taken captive by the Pakistani military.

    Reportedly, Vijay will be seen essaying the role of  IAF WIng Commander Abhinandan Varthaman in the film and has given a nod to the project. However, nothing can be confirmed until the actor formally signs the contract.

    Although his upcoming film Fighter starring Ananya Panday will be released in Hindi dubbed version, this could be his official Bollywood debut and we’re sure his fans will be ecstatic!

    The turn of events in 2020 has rightly deemed it to be a dark year for all of mankind. 
    Our lives have been affected by a pandemic no one had earlier heard of, untimely demises, rising cases of depression and unimaginable living conditions. It's safe to say that we've seen it all and there is no doubt that we are way beyond our threshold of bearing the bad news. But, it seems there is no end to it anytime soon.
    The resumption of cricketing action on 19th September, with the thirteenth edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL) kickstarting this year's proceedings, people finally had something to help divert their attention from these troubled times. The ongoing edition has witnessed five games which had almost everything a fan could wish for. But, just when life seemed like a little normal with IPL, 2020's bad omen returned to haunt us once again.
    On 24th September, when everyone was busy speculating over what promises to be a pulsating clash between Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) and Kings XI Punjab (KXIP), one of the most popular and respected voices in international cricket, Dean Jones, passed away after suffering a massive heart attack in Mumbai.
    Dean Jones: 1961-2020 – an icon of the game gone way too soon. RIP

    — ICC (@ICC) September 24, 2020"It is with great sadness that we share the news of the passing away of Dean Mervyn Jones AM. He died of a sudden cardiac arrest. We express our deep condolences to his family and stand ready to support them in this difficult time," Star India, who had roped in Jones as a commentator for IPL 2020, confirmed through a statement.
    "Dean Jones was one of the great ambassadors of the game associating himself with Cricket development across South Asia. He was passionate about discovering new talent and nurturing young Cricketers. He was a champion commentator whose presence and presentation of the game always brought joy to millions of fans. He will be sorely missed by everyone at Star and his millions of fans across the globe," Star India added in its statement.
    We are extremely shocked and sad to learn of the untimely demise of Mr. Dean Jones. His energy and enthusiasm for the game will be truly missed. Our thoughts with his family, friends and his followers in this hour of grief. pic.twitter.com/gAAagImKeC
    — IndianPremierLeague (@IPL) September 24, 2020 The 59-year-old had arrived in Mumbai at the behest of Star India who had organised a special commentary team for the coverage of IPL 2020. Like his fellow commentators, Jones was placed in a bio-secure bubble in a seven-star hotel in Mumbai.  
    His impeccable knowledge and analysis of the game had made him a popular commentator in the cricketing circles. 
    Born in Melbourne, Jones was a vital cog in Allan Border's world-conquering Australian side during his playing days. A natural showman who never hesitated from getting involved in verbal altercations with the bowlers, showed everyone the importance of running hard between the wickets and gave purpose to outfielders with his passionate fielding efforts, Jones wrote the virtues of being a successful limited-overs cricketer. 
    Cricket Australia is deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Dean Jones, aged 59.

    Jones represented Australia in 52 Tests and 164 One-Day Internationals, winning admirers the world over with his dashing shot-making and superb fielding.

    — Cricket Australia (@CricketAus) September 24, 2020
    Often labelled as 'Prof Deano', the Australian legend played 52 Tests and amassed 3,631 runs including 11 hundreds, 14 fifties and a personal best score of 216 runs. The right-hander also played 162 One-Day Internationals (ODIs) for Australia, scoring 6,068 runs including seven hundreds and 46 fifties. 
    While the great Australian cricket icon might have left us all teary-eyed with his sudden demise, his legacy which is full of achievements, both on and off the field, will continue to live on.  
    And, that's probably why social media is flooded with tributes from cricketers, commentators and fans for our beloved 'Prof Deano'. 
    Absolutely heartbreaking news about Dean Jones passing away.
    A wonderful soul taken away too soon. Had the opportunity to play against him during my first tour of Australia.
    May his soul rest in peace and my condolences to his loved ones. 🏼 pic.twitter.com/u6oEY1h7zz

    Abhishek Bachchan is one of the most underrated actors in Bollywood and sadly, also among those stars who keep getting trolled time and again on social media for no reason whatsoever.  

    However, the actor has always taken matters in his stride, personally dealing with a lot of these anonymous trolls, so much so, that now he's become a pro at handling them in the best possible ways. 
    © BCCL
    The 44-year-old actor recently responded to a Twitter user who suggested that the actor is popular only because of the family he belongs to and not his skills as a performer. 

    The anonymous hater, in his argument, compared the follower count of Abhishek’s social media handle with actor Prachi Desai’s. 
    Tagging Kangana Ranaut, PM Narendra Modi and a fake account of TV anchor Arnab Goswami, the user wrote in his tweet: “OUTSIDER VS NEPOTISM. @ItsPrachiDesai 1.3M followers. @juniorbachchan 15.3M followers. And you guys are expecting good from #Bollywood. I mean How? Its high time that we should start appreciating and supporting #talent.”

    — akshit singhal (@AkshittSinghal) September 23, 2020 To this, Abhishek replied in his usual dignified style. He wrote: “I assure you Mr Singhal the amount of followers you have on social media is by no means a barometer of acceptance or popularity or talent. My friend @ItsPrachiDesai is a very talented actor and doesn’t need social media to endorse that. Her work speaks for itself.” 
    I assure you Mr Singhal the amount of followers you have on social media is by no means a barometer of acceptance or popularity or talent. My friend @ItsPrachiDesai is a very talented actor and doesn’t need social media to endorse that. Her work speaks for itself.
    — Abhishek Bachchan (@juniorbachchan) September 23, 2020 Besides, when another user noted that Abhishek’s fans follow him on social media voluntarily, the actor wrote, “Absolutely.” 
    Abhishek and Prachi have worked together in the film Bol Bachchan, which also starred Ajay Devgn. 
    Junior Bachchan often finds himself at the receiving end of trolls on social media and he never backs down from giving it straight to them, however, with utter kindness and class. 
    © Abhishek Bachchan (IE)
    In fact, the actor wasn’t even spared during his recent Coronavirus scare, as trolls came for him again. 

    While admitted in hospital with his father, Amitabh Bachchan, a Twitter user wrote to Abhishek, “Your father admitted in hospital... Ab kiske bharose baith ke khaoge? (who will feed you now)” 
    To which the actor had written, “Filhaal toh let ke kha rahe hain dono saath aspatal mein (right now both of us are being well fed at the hospital).” 
    The troll replied, “Get well soon sir... Har kisi ki kismat me let ke khana kaha (not everyone has the good fortune to be well taken care of).” To this, Abhishek responded, “I pray that you are never in a situation like ours and that you remain safe and healthy. Thank you for your wishes, ma’am.” 
    There’s no denying the fact that Abhishek is a humble guy who knows well how to handle trolls online. And clearly, he is setting an example by not stooping to the level of the anonymous trolls.

    Amazfit has launched a lot of really cool smartwatches here in India and the next in line is their new Amazfit Neo. It's one of those watches that we'd instantly buy without a second thought mainly because of its looks. Here, check it out -
    © Amazfit
    Yes, it's got that classic retro-look that we're already sold on. It sports a 1.2-inch STN display which Amazfit claims that it's easy to read even under bright light. The watch has a "lift to wake" feature to help save some battery when you're looking at it.

    The Amazfit Neo also comes with a wide-range of health-tracking features to help you stay fit. It's equipped with a BioTracker PPG optical sensor for 24/7 heart-rate monitoring. The key feature of the watch is its Personal Activity Intelligence (PAI) health assessment system that can help you better understand your physical well-being.
    The watch can also track your sleep patterns, steps, and calories. The watch also comes with three sports modes - running, walking, and cycling with real-time information. As far as the battery life is concerned, the Amazfit claims that the watch can last up to 28 days on a single charge.
    © Amazfit
    Pricing & AvailabilityThe Amazfit Neo is set to launch globally on October 1, which means it's right around the corner. We don't know exactly how much it costs in India but the folks over at Android Central say it costs $40 in the US, so we think it's going to cost around the same here in India too. It seems like an affordable option for anyone who's not interested in buying the more expensive options like the Apple Watch.

    For a team that had finished at a lowly seventh spot last season, Rajasthan Royals couldn't have possibly begun their campaign any better than they did a couple of days back. 
    Taking on the champion Chennai Super Kings (CSK) side, Rajasthan made their intentions pretty clear with an emphatic 16-run triumph at the Sharjah Cricket stadium.
    A happy skipper says "This win is for you". ️#HallaBol | #RoyalsFamily | #RRvCSK | @stevesmith49 pic.twitter.com/bb9MyjylvK
    — Rajasthan Royals (@rajasthanroyals) September 22, 2020
    It was an opening win that had everything a team would hope for. 
    Captain Steve Smith got the ground running with a 69-run knock. Sanju Samson smoked the leather of the ball with disdain during his 32-ball 74. And, amongst a star-studded bowling line-up, spinner Rahul Tewatia overshadowed everyone with his superlative spell that saw him bagging three key wickets.
    With two points in their kitty, the Rajasthan camp would surely be feeling at ease as they currently occupy the second spot in the points table. But, despite their next game still being three days away, Rajasthan aren't taking things lightly as witnessed in their recent net session.
    Despite looking in good touch in their opening game against Chennai, skipper Smith continues to sweat it out in training sessions in a bid to carry his form. But, it seems that Smith has also added something new to his batting repertoire which could pay big dividends to him and his team in days to come.
    Gotta love a captain who plays the helicopter shot! #HallaBol | #RoyalsFamily | @stevesmith49 pic.twitter.com/tPKYZuR745
    — Rajasthan Royals (@rajasthanroyals) September 24, 2020
    Taking to Twitter, Rajasthan shared a video of their captain batting in the nets. The Australian batting sensation was seen copying MS Dhoni's iconic 'helicopter shot' and successfully pulling it off. 
    The Rajasthan-based franchise captioned the video: "Gotta love a captain who plays the helicopter shot".
    Patent rights are on his name... pic.twitter.com/kxTntvuqBx
    — aravind bade (@arvndbade) September 24, 2020
    While Dhoni's unique shot has been played by other batsmen including Hardik Pandya and Rashid Khan, Smith's impersonation lacked the noticeable follow-through of the willow which, in Dhoni's case, swivels over his left-shoulder completing a movement similar to that of a helicopter blade. 
    And that's probably why cricket fans weren't impressed with Smith's attempt.
    You can Love him or hate him, no matter how hard they try but nobody would ever ever ever come closer to playing helicopter shot like Dhoni. This guy is just hitting the full toss out of off stump ball here.
    — Anuj k. Singh (@anuzkSingh) September 24, 2020Should have learnt earlier, from his Skipper @msdhoni . At @RPSupergiants.

    But, does he have a strike rate anywhere near to @msdhoni @ChennaiIPL . Enna naa solrathu.

    It's the year of hilarious remixes and mashups and honestly, no one is complaining. From edits of Indian TV shows with autotuned singing to, of course, even big journalists not being spared, this is the trend that should live on forever.
    And, while the latest funny video that Twitter has given us is not exactly like Rasode Mei Kaun Tha or Drugs Do Mujhe, it's still one of the best parody videos we've seen recently.
    Someone basically thought what would happen if suddenly the WWE started using Himesh Reshammiya's songs and the rest is history.

    It would be fair to say that Sony has dropped the ball when it comes to the PlayStation 5 India pricing details and even the availability date. While Microsoft’s Xbox Series X has already gone on sale in India and was even sold out within a few hours, PlayStation fans are still patiently waiting when they can get their hands on the upcoming console. 
    © Sony PlayStation
    Sources also told The Mako Reactor that the PlayStation 5 details will be released the moment Sony is confident about getting stocks in time which means an announcement could just be around the corner. 

    @RishiAlwani spoke to sony store he told november 20th they will get stocks for ps5 and the price will be from 35k to 50k, after calculations it's coming upto 39k and 49k for digital and disc respectively this is confirmed but stocks will be less.
    — Kaushik choudhury (@KaushikcKaushik) September 23, 2020
    Potential customers have been reaching out to Sony Centres to get more clarity on the PlayStation 5 launch and some have revealed information about the potential pricing of the console. Similarly, customers have also been reaching out to retailers like Amazon India for more details and the e-commerce website claims that the console pre-order will go live sometime next week.

    After losing their opening game to the Chennai Super Kings, Mumbai Indians made a roaring comeback to the Indian Premier League and showed why they deserve to be the most successful team in the history of the tournament as they defeated Kolkata Knight Riders by 49 runs.
    MI skipper Rohit Sharma led the team from the front and dominated KKR bowlers for 18 overs. He faced 54 deliveries and smashed 80 runs with three 4s and six 6s coming off his bat.
    View this post on InstagramHit-Man of the Match for his sublime 80 today 💙 #OneFamily #MumbaiIndians #MI #Dream11IPL #KKRvMI @rohitsharma45A post shared by (@mumbaiindians)
    And even though Mumbai cruised past Kolkata for the win, it was Hardik Pandya who became the talking point of the match. Pandya, who is considered to be one of Team India’s top choices as an all-rounder, ended up getting himself out on a hit-wicket.
    Trying to leave the ball in the 19th over, Pandya, unaware of how deep inside the crease he was standing, pushed his bat backwards and toppled the bails right off the stumps.

    What happened there? Far back in the crease and Hardik Pandya hits the stumps. First hit wicket of the tournament.

    — chillkrbae (@chillkrbae) September 23, 2020Obviously, they are referring to the controversial episode of Koffee with Karan in which Pandya’s “aaj main karke aaya” line landed him in a lot of trouble and even got him suspended from the Indian cricket team for a couple of games.
    The 2020 season of the IPL is the first time Pandya is playing on such a high level ever since undergoing a lower back surgery in October last year. He did represent the Reliance 1 team in the 16th edition of the DY Patil T20 Cup in Mumbai and looked in supernatural form when he hit a 37-ball century.
    With the lockdown and all international matches being suspended till date, Pandya must utilise his time in the T20 league to return to form before the team gets selected for the Australia series later in the year.

    Samsung announced a cheaper alternative to the Galaxy S20 in the form of a ‘Fan Edition’ which is slightly toned down than its flagship siblings. The phone was the worst kept secret this smartphone season and we have all the features that one might want to know about the phone. The smartphone comes with a triple-camera setup at the rear and follows a similar design language as the Galaxy Note 20 series. It comes in six colours albeit with a less premium design than the Galaxy S20 series.
    © Samsung
    The display on the Galaxy S20 FE comes with a 120Hz refresh rate panel and works the same way it does on 2020 Samsung flagship phones. The phone is available in both 4G and 5G versions which are powered by different chipsets.

    The phone is priced at $6000, however Indian pricing for the device is still not available at the moment. The phone will come in different configurations i.e. 6GB RAM + 128GB, 8GB + 128GB, and 8GB + 256GB. The six colours include Cloud Red, Cloud Orange, Cloud Lavender, Cloud Mint, Cloud Navy and Cloud White. The phone is expected to go on sale on October 2 in select markets and the Indian launch date will be revealed soon.
    © Samsung
    The Galaxy S20 FE has a 6.5-inch fullHD+ (1,080x2,400 pixels) AMOLED display that also has a punch-hole camera. The display has a coating of Corning Gorilla Glass 3 and 407ppi pixel density. Much like other Samsung flagship devices, the S20 FE also has an in-display fingerprint sensor that can be used for fingerprint biometric security. The 4G variant of the phone, the one that will likely sell in India is powered by the Exynos 990 chipset while the 5G variant is powered by Snapdragon 865 SoC.
    © Samsung
    The camera setup on the S20 FE is in line with other phones launched by the South Korean giant earlier this year. It has a 12MP primary sensor with an f/1.8 wide-angle lens and supports optical image stabilisation (OIS) and dual-phase detection autofocus. There is also a 12MP ultra-wide-angle sensor with a field of view of 123-degrees. There is also an 8MP telephone lens that has an aperture of f/2.0. For the front-facing camera, the S20 FE comes with a 32MP selfie camera sensor at the front and has support for autofocus.
    © Samsung
    The phone supports UBS-C PD and PPS fast-charging capabilities and has a 4,500mAh battery. The phone also supports Qi-wireless charging and can be used to charge other devices such as the Galaxy Buds via the PowerShare feature. And finally, the S20 FE has an IP68 rating which means the phone can withstand dust, dirt and sand, and is resistant to submersion up to a maximum depth of 1.5m underwater for up to thirty minutes.

    Growing up, the early years of school mostly felt like prepping for the ultimate board exams in 10th and eventually in 12th, that were made out to be the deal breakers of our future should we fail to live up to its demands.
    The only motivation and promise of rewards that were sent our way included getting into the prestigious ‘Science’ stream and then the golden words which haunt millennials even today, “Bas do saal aur mehnat karlo, fir toh araam hi araam hai.” We all know now that was the biggest lie of the century.
    © Twitter Rabindranathji
    Anyhow, things seem to have changed over the years and somebody has managed to get the rewards system right for once. Jharkhand education minister Jagarnath Mahto and Assembly speaker Rabindra Nath Mahto recently gifted 2020 class 10th and 12th toppers Alto cars for their great performance in the board exams.

    The two recipients of the cars were class 10th topper Manish Kumar Katiyar and class 12th topper Amit Kumar. Jharkhand education minister Jagarnath Mahto also announced during the event that starting next year he will also adopt the toppers and bear their education expenses. 

    That’s not all, even the state assembly speaker made a strong point for students about working hard and pursuing their dreams, but not at the cost of sacrificing their morals and ethics. You become a doctor, an engineer, a scientist or anything but always follow ethics and moral values. I appeal to the teachers to inculcate moral values in students. Students going to school on foot or on a bicycle will now ride a car and I hope will achieve their target with speed.”

    How the times have changed. Students are now getting cars to feel motivated, while all we could look forward to back in the day was a heartfelt congratulations and some extra kaju katlis on our plate.

    Being a social media celebrity is a dream most youngsters aspire to achieve these days. It is everything an average youth would find tantalising at first sight - the fame, the fan following, the adoration as well as the added quirks that come from turning into an “influencer” on social media.
    But it takes people with an evolved sense of purpose and awareness to read the fine print and understand the seriousness of having a voice and reach that allows them to not only make their point but also be heard, apart from also creating ripples in the longer run.

    It takes more than a money-making gimmick and likes-hogging internet celeb to realise the larger implications of having the tremendous power of social media at their disposal at just a few taps on the keyboard. 

    However, if there is one person who has truly mastered the beauty of social media and given ‘infotainment’ a ‘verified’ username on Instagram, it has to be Ted The Stoner aka Jitendra Sharma. At just 26, Jitendra’s alter ego Ted, the friendly neighbourhood bear, boasts of 1.5 million followers on Instagram, most of whom are suckers for his wit, humour and opinions that actually make sense. As for his ever-multiplying fan-base, which includes an array of celebs who frequent his account, it’s all thanks to his philosophy of “changing mindsets, one at a time” using funny memes and ‘Ted’s 2 Cents’. 
    View this post on InstagramWelcome to my worldA post shared by (@tedthestoner)
    Ask him to share a few things about himself that he has never shared with his followers before, and pat kicks in his ready-wit. “I'm not a bear. None of this is real. This is just a dream. You're actually talking to a bear. No seriously, wake up.” This definitely wasn’t what we expected to hear, but the response still finds you shaking your head with a smile.
    So I tried again and asked him why he chose Ted - the stoner - to be his alter ego? Now this time, the response felt a bit more conviving. Jitendra told MensXP, 
    “Ted the stoner symbolises a stoned bear who thinks deeply about current affairs and everything that's happening around us and at the same time tries to spread happiness and what can be better than a stoned bear to do that job.” Sure enough, when it comes to spreading happiness, nothing beats Ted’s 1 AM doggo posts. It was something Jitendra started on a whim, and soon enough it turned into a ritual of sorts and now, as he admits it has become “a duty given to me by the internet people.”
    View this post on InstagramEarly 1am post so that I can sleep, you can sleep, everyone can sleep 😴A post shared by (@tedthestoner)
    But that isn’t the only “duty” Ted has been taking care of on his platform. Ted The Stoner, which had initially started out as a meme page with a mind of its own, soon evolved into something much bigger and more powerful. This decision came with the power and responsibility Ted came to enjoy on the platform, which he eventually decided to put to better use. “When my page started growing, I shifted from posting solely humorous content to posting content related to mental health, climate change, and animal welfare, amongst other things. Because I realised my words had an impact on my audience.” 
    So despite facing some difficulty while navigating through sensitive subjects, Jitendra realised that “you cannot silence your inner voice just to please a few hundred people. If you believe that you are contributing to the good in the world, do not waste a second thinking about the backlash you will receive. It's all background noise.”

    Now, while criticism is sure to come Ted’s way as a part of what he does and plans to get done in the longer run, he has also found loyal supporters in his followers who keep his boat afloat. That’s how he decided to get his audience involved in things he felt passionately about, and we began seeing posts related to matters of larger importance, which often came with a call to action. Jintendra tells us that, “This happened very recently when our voice was heard by the government in cases like ban on dog meat, actions being taken against injustice done to individuals. That is when you realise that social media can be used for a lot more than just posting random stuff.” 

    But in trying to present his views, Ted has never moved away from the philosophy of making informed choices and siding with the complete truth, of whatever of it can be salvaged at a given point. So when asked about how he manages to present a well-rounded and unprejudiced opinion on every issue, Jitendra elaborates, 
    “Every opinion is simply a result of my past experiences. I never claim my opinion as right or wrong. At the end of the day, it is just an individual opinion. I try to be well informed about what I speak so that anyone doesn't get misinformed by my opinion. View this post on InstagramWith all due respect to your sentiments, an independent investigation is all you can ask for. Refrain from holding social media trials and defaming someone who isn't alive to defend himself.A post shared by (@tedthestoner)
     That is perhaps why ‘Ted’s 2 Cents’ became a highly popular segment on the page and turned into something his community really counts on and takes to heart. Talking about how he goes about these posts, Ted revealed, “It surely adds a bit of responsibility on the page since a lot of people religiously follow it. Proper research has to be done before putting out anything as Ted's 2 cents.” He adds that in today’s times when misinformation finds more buyers than genuine facts, “It is very important to have a well researched opinion (as it) is nothing less than power in today's world. With everything going around in today's world, it becomes absolutely necessary to be well informed so as to become qualified enough to ask the right questions to the right people.” 
    Ted The Stoner and the mastermind behind its roaring success, Jitendra Sharma, have truly come a long way when it comes to creating ripples, initiating important discussions and bringing about tangible change one person at a time.

    The Black Widow movie was basically ten years too late but even then, Miss Rona said, what's one more year?
    Back in January and February, all of us MCU fans were excited for new Marvel content because it had been months since we got anything. Who knew it was going to be like this?
    © Marvel
    After desperately waiting to see Natasha Romanoff's origin story, it was cruelly taken away and now we'll have to wait a few more months because Disney will never, ever release a movie on Disney + and lose out on those billion dollars.

    Black Widow was supposed to be released in May of this year, but Marvel has announced the new date as May 7, 2021. Just a few more months and we're back to seeing ScarJo kicking ass on the big screen.
    © Marvel
    The next Phase Four movie to be so unceremoniously postponed was Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings which will have the first Asian superhero in the MCU and that in itself was incredible. Moreover, Shang-Chi is being played by Simu Liu, who literally manifested his role after tweeting to Marvel for years.

    © Marvel
    The movie was scheduled for February 2021 but now has been moved to July 9, 2021, probably to keep up with the original line-up and release it after Black Widow.

    And lastly, in a non-pandemic world, we would be watching The Eternals this November, but that's also been moved an entire year and will be out on November 5, 2021.
    © Marvel
    Just like how The Eternals was moved one step down from the original line-up, looks like the same happened with the TV series'.

    Back in July last year, it was announced that the first series to drop on Disney + was going to be The Falcon and The Winter Soldier, which was ideally going to come out right about now, but as we all know, we don't even have a trailer for it.
    What we do have is the first trailer for WandaVision so it's safe to assume that it's going to be the first series to come out, hopefully, this year itself. Fingers crossed.
    © Marvel
    Let's see if The Falcon and The Winter Soldier and Loki follow soon after WandaVision.

    This obviously disrupts the entire release timeline of the MCU, even making 2020 the only year in over a decade where not a single Marvel movie came to the big screen.
    Fun fact - Black Widow is now being released on the date we were supposed to get Doctor Strange In The Multiverse Of Madness. So I guess that will be pushed to 2022 now. Similarly, The Eternals has taken over the release date for Thor: Love and Thunder.

    We can just pretend this year never happened and it will be back to business from next year, I guess.

    What more is there to learn about underwear? I wear it, change it, wash it, repeat. 

    While it seems like a perfectly normal process, your intimate hygiene needs some more attention. Whether you choose boxers, briefs or trunks, chances are, underwear etiquettes rarely get a second thought.
    Underwear most importantly needs to be changed frequently, kept clean and discarded when they are threadbare or stained.   
    It should be bought and worn based on your body’s needs. And as long as you keep these simple rules in mind, you’ll never wear the wrong underwear.

    Gentlemen, let's talk about what exactly is a bachelor pad.

    The ultimate bachelor pad does not involve pizza boxes stacked in the kitchen, magazine tear-outs taped on the wall or the collection of empty beer bottles in the balcony. 
    A gentleman’s bachelor pad is rather clean, sophisticated and updated. Your ultimate man cave should look like a killer space your buddies wish they had and everyone finds comfortable during their visit.  
    Whether you live in a studio apartment or a builder floor, just make sure you have the listed home essentials and a little love to make everyone eager to be there.

    Hailing from one of the few regions in India where football's popularity and following outdoes that of cricket, Sanju Samson, despite still being in his 20s, has emerged as a flag-bearer for Kerala in domestic cricket. While his exploits in first-class cricket have earned him plaudits, Samson's impressive outings, over the years, in the Indian Premier League (IPL) further earned him a national call-up.
    He was handed his Team India debut in 2015, but his inconsistency in national colours saw him featuring in just four matches (all T20Is) for the 'Men in Blue'. 
    While the right-hander might not have made the most of his opportunities with Team India, he remains a vital cog for Rajasthan Royals in the IPL - something that was in full display on Tuesday night.
    © Twitter/@IPL
    Coming out to bat with Rajasthan reeling at 11/1, Samson slammed a sensational 32-ball 74 including a four and nine sixes in a knock that had a strike-rate of a staggering 231.25 as a reflection of his carnage. 

    The Kerala cricketer notched up his fifty in a mere 19 balls, stitched a crucial 121-run partnership with Steve Smith and powered Rajasthan to a massive total of 216 runs which eventually proved a tad too much for Chennai Super Kings (CSK) to handle.
    50 from just 19. Such pure, clean, elegant hitting. I could watch Sanju Samson bat all day, every day.
    — Harsha Bhogle (@bhogleharsha) September 22, 2020
    A brilliant 16-run win for Rajasthan was derived on a team effort with their bowling unit also playing a key role. But it was Samson's clean-hitting that really stood out and earned him plaudits from fans and pundits alike.  
    Some of the most respected voices in the sport hailed the 25-year-old cricketer for his batting masterclass. 
    Sanju Samson is not just the best wicketkeeper batsmen in India but the best young batsman in India!
    Anyone up for debate?
    — Gautam Gambhir (@GautamGambhir) September 22, 2020
    Gautam Gambir, too, seemed mighty impressed with Samson's pleasing batting show as he took to social media to shower plaudits on the Rajasthan batsman.
    "Sanju Samson is not just the best wicketkeeper batsmen in India but the best young batsman in India! Anyone up for debate?" he tweeted. 
    No argument from me @GautamGambhir ! I have known him since he was a kid. At 14 I told him he would be the next @msdhoni. He has the ability & is developing the self-belief. All he needs is the breaks! https://t.co/NmgX0wOIhs
    — Shashi Tharoor (@ShashiTharoor) September 23, 2020As soon as his tweets surfaced, another Samson admirer, senior Congress leader Shashi Tharoor, jumped at the opportunity to laud the right-hander's efforts. 
    Responding to Gambhir's tweet, the Lok Sabha MP wrote: 
    "No argument from me @GautamGambhir! I have known him since he was a kid. At 14 I told him he would be the next @msdhoni. He has the ability & is developing the self-belief. All he needs is the breaks!".While Tharoor and Gambhir were seen lauding Samson, the latter seemed extremely critical of Dhoni following Chennai's loss at the Sharjah Cricket stadium. The two-time IPL winning captain called Dhoni's decision to bat at No. 7 senseless before questioning his intent and labelling the CSK captain's consecutive sixes in the last over as "personal runs".
