As for the ZenFone 7, well, it's exactly the same as the Pro version expect that this one comes with the vanilla Snapdragon 865 chipset rather than the overclocked 865+ variant. This one is also just as good as the Pro version.
Pricing & AvailabilityThe 6GB+128GB variant of the ZenFone 7 has been launched at NT$ 21,990 which is roughly Rs 55,699. The 8GB+128GB variant has been priced at NT$ 23,990, which is roughly Rs 60,799 in Taiwan. The ZenFone 7 Pro, on the other hand, has been launched at NT$ 27,990 which is roughly Rs 70,899. We're not entirely sure as to when these phones will come to India, but we expect the pricing to change accordingly.

To this day, a mention of the Pulwama attack fills our hearts with an irreplaceable sense of pain and loss. What follows is pounding rage towards the culprits and perpetrators behind the gruesome attack which led to the death of 40 brave CRPF jawans in South Kashmir on February 14, 2019.
However, the 18-month long probe into the Pulwama terror attack, spearheaded by the National Investigation Agency (NIA) officially came to an end with the filing of the chargesheet at a Jammu special court which named 19 people, including JeM chief Masood Azhar, for planning and executing the fatal operation.
© Twitter JammuNews
By presenting the crucial 13,500-page chargesheet, the NIA marked the culmination of a year-and-a-half long "painstaking and meticulous investigation” and now, we list down 5 ground-breaking evidence which help the NIA make a breakthrough in this otherwise “blind case” sprinkled with dead ends.
1. Since most of the things which could have been utilised as evidence in the case was blown into pieces with the blast, NIA had to make use of a number of forensic tests including DNA profiling to find the initial cracks in the dead ends.
© Twitter Live Wire
2. Establishing the ownership of the car used by suicide bomber Adil Ahmad Dar for the attack was crucial, but nothing was available. However, detailed forensic methods and painstaking investigations, the serial number of the car was successfully put together. This helped to identify the owners of the car - from the first to the last, namely Sajjad Bhat of Bijbehara, who had joined JeM and was eventually killed in an encounter in June 2019.
3. Human remains from various spots at the scene of the attack were picked up by the agency and sent for DNA profiling. That is how the identity of the suicide attacker Adil Ahmed Dar was acertained and later confirmed by matching the DNA extracted from the car fragments with that of Dar’s father.

4. The video shared by JeM spokesperson Mohd Hassan claiming that his group was responsible for the attack, was sent for forensic examination and the IP address was traced back to a computer located in Pakistan.
5. The NIA chargesheet has named Jem chief Masood Azhar’s nephew, Mohammed Umar Farooq, as the main mastermind behind the attack. Reportedly, Farooq had infiltrated into the Indian soil in April 2018 and was eventually killed in an encounter last year.
6. After Farooq's encounter, several items were recovered by the Jammu and Kashmir Police including a Rs 70,000 Samsung S-9 Galaxy phone which came with double encryption. J&K Police later handed over the phone to Indian Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT-In) so that data could be recovered.
© Twitter Ss22Shweta
7. The data retrieved from Farooq’s phone played a crucial role in revealing greater details related to the attack. Hundreds of deleted videos and photographs which were sent to Farooq's uncle Maulana Mohammed Ammar via WhatsApp, were recovered.
8. Apart from these footage shot by the terrorists, the agency also found traces of the infiltrating group bringing RDX with it from the Jammu sector IB. The recovered videos also included several takes of the confessional video shot by Adil Ahmad Dar.
© BCCL
9. Apart from the phone, reports also suggest that a team led by NIA Joint Director Anil Shukla gathered evidence and statements of terrorists and their sympathisers who had been arrested in different cases to uncover the conspiracy.
10. NIA investigators put in painstaking efforts to establish valid proof to find a link between the Jaish terrorists killed in 20-odd encounters and the Pulwama terror attack.
Scary shit, right?

After Benedict Cumberbatch's sharp portrayal as Sherlock Holmes, we will soon see Henry Cavill assume the shoes of the iconic detective in the upcoming film called Enola Holmes, which is based on the life of Sherlock and Mycroft's sister.
© Warner Bros.
The trailer of the film came out on Tuesday this week, take a look at it here:
Directed by Henry Bradbeer, the film will focus on Sherlock and Mycroft's sister, Enola's journey as she sets out to find her missing mother. But in order to do that, she needs to outsmart her detective brothers.
© Warner Bros.
Enola played by Millie Bobbi Brown is seen fighting strange scenarios with her gifted abilities. Sam Clafin plays the role of Mycroft Holmes. However, one thing that was striking about the film was undoubtedly Henry Cavil's version of Sherlock Holmes.
© Warner Bros.
After brilliant performances in features like The Witcher and being a part of the DC universe with his fierce portrayal of Superman, or his role in Mission: Impossible-Fallout, Henry Cavill has never failed to surprise us with his versatile characters. When Henry Cavill takes up a role, it's not just about his acting, but also the authentic grooming and costume design that helps him seamlessly transition into the roles that he plays. It's almost like the role becomes his second skin and no one can tell the difference anymore.
© Warner Bros.
Set in England in 1884, for Enola Holmes, Cavill's Sherlock is dressed in sharp suits, long flowy trench coats, accessories that help give the formals definition like a scarf or his visible pocket watch and his effortless hairstyle that is authentic to the timeline the film is set in.
© Warner Bros.
Not just that, waistcoats and ties with patterns akin to nineteenth-century England are also used for his costumes in the film.
© Warner Bros.
In fact, after seeing Benedict Cumberbatch and Robert Downey Jr. as Sherlock, we can't wait to witness Cavill's version.

Due to COVID-19 global health crisis many shootings have been either cancelled or postponed. Now that slowly the nation is getting unlocked and businesses have started to operate again, the shootings are resuming too.
Recently, T-Series revealed the first looks of John Abraham and Aditi Rao Hydari from an upcoming cross-border love story which also features Arjun Kapoor and Rakul Preet Singh in lead roles.
Sharing the photos where John is dressed as a Sikh man, producer T Series’ official Twitter handle wrote, “First look of @TheJohnAbraham & @aditiraohydari in @arjunk26-@Rakulpreet starrer directed by @kaachua. The duo plays a special role in this cross-border love story that spans generations.”
Even film critic and trade analyst Taran Adarsh took to his Twitter account to share the first look of the untitled film.

The storylineAs per the reports, the yet-to-be-titled film is set in 1947 and spans across generations. It follows the aftermath of the Partition. Going by John and Aditi's looks in the poster, it surely seems interesting.
The film’s shooting resumed on Tuesday after the pandemic-led shutdown recently and it will go on for 10 days.
The cast & crewHelmed by Kaashive Nair, the film also stars Arjun Kapoor, Rakul Preet Singh, Neena Gupta and Kanwaljit Singh in significant roles among others.
Who is playing what role?According to the reports, Aditi and John will play Arjun’s grandparents in the much-awaited film and will be seen in flashback portions. Meanwhile Aditi is said to be playing the younger version of Neena Gupta in the film.
We are really excited about this one. What about you?
Here’s what the actors saidSpeaking about her character, Aditi told a website, “John and I play a couple in 1946 –47 whose love story remains unfinished and unrequited till Arjun’s character feels the need to bring it to closure. Films like these are rarely made today, so I was quick to come on board.”
Meanwhile John, who is also producing the film along with his Batla House director Nikkhil Advani and Bhushan Kumar, said in a statement, “The team has taken extreme care, following all the SOPs, issued by the ministries and the concerned authorities. As a producer, it’s important for me to look out for our cast and crew.”
“When I heard the script, I instantly knew that this would be a special part, and when Kaashvie suggested I play it, it was difficult to refuse,” he added.
John and Aditi will be shooting for their part for a week in an indoor schedule and will then reunite with the team for a brief outdoor in October.

I'm conflicted about one thing about Indian reality shows; on one hand, they're so unnecessarily cringe, it feels like you're losing brain cells watching it, but on the other hand, there's no better content than that to make everyone laugh, especially when they're not even supposed to be funny.
The 2000s was a wild time, MTV and Bindass were making one reality show after another with content that would give anyone second-hand embarrassment.
So, let's relive the nightmare bu looking at a few iconic viral moments that were unironically released into the world.
1. How can she slap? - Dadagiri
Obviously, it doesn't get more viral than this. The original episode of Dadagiri where this incident occurred was released in 2008 and well, history was made that day.
Till today, people refer to this hilarious meme and there's not a single person who doesn't get it, and if there is one, they deserve a slap. (It's a joke, don't actually slap people, that's not cool)
2. The 'bigini shoot' girlfriend who bites - Emotional Atyachaar
Okay, this is something we've all seen but it was almost erased from a lot of people's memory. But, it's so amazing that everyone needs to watch this right now.
Our girl Poonam here is famous for her 'bigini, 2 piece shoots' and of course, biting her boyfriend.
3. Trash talk - SplitsVilla
SplitsVilla as a whole is cringe TV personified, but even then, this trash-talking stands out. From the weirdly specific disses at the other contestants going viral, obviously it went viral.
I wonder what these people are up to these days and what they think of their old antics on national TV.
4. Dolly Bindra - Bigg Boss
Sorry Pooja, but Dolly Bindra is the queen of Bigg Boss. Even people who have never watched the show know what nuisance she was on the show.
Her screaming and yelling was way too common in the Bigg Boss house, but nothing can beat her fight with Manoj Tiwari.
"AYEE, BAAP PE JAANA NAHI!"
5. Neha Dhupia's 'It's her choice' - Roadies
Come on, Neha, we did not expect this from you. No one can defend cheating and her pathetic attempt at it became the biggest meme of the year. I feel like she has probably learned the lesson by now, but man, it unbearable to see her say 'It's her choice'.
Yes, she was defending a guy hitting a girl, and obviously the intention was right but the execution was horrible. Do better, Neha.

Amid Coronavirus we have seen many men across the world grow their hair but this man from Vietnam’s Nguyen Van Chien is not comparable to anyone as he hasn’t gotten his hair trimmed in the last eighty years. Yes, you read that right!
The 92-year-old who lives in the Southern Mekong Delta Region has 5 meter long dreadlocks and he believes that one should leave his body untouched and respect whatever they were born with.
© Reuters
He said, “I believe if I cut my hair I will die. I dare not to change anything, not even combing it. I only nurture it, cover it in a scarf to keep it dry and clean and look nice.”
Chein worships nine powers and seven gods and believes that his purpose of life was to grow his hair this long and he bundles up his hair and ties them in an orange turban.
He last trimmed his hair when he was in 3rd grade and never cut them after that and also decided to never cut, comb or wash it again.
© Reuters
He also added, “I remembered my hair was black, thick, and strong. I combed it, untangled it to make it smooth. But when I heard the calling from the divine power, I knew immediately that I was chosen. I touched my hair and overnight it has become really hard. It has attached to my head and became a thing of its own.”
Chien needs a person who manages his giant locks. He also expressed how he follows a near-obsolete faith known as ‘Dua’ . He only survives on coconuts to retain his vitality and Dua has been banned in Vietnam.
Are you also planning to not get a haircut? Let us know in the comments section below.

Building strong immunity is not something that requires rocket science but a little discipline in life. With a good diet, regular exercise and proper sleep, one can have a healthy and strong immune system to defeat any infection that enters the human body.
The struggle begins with what comes under a good diet because all the nutritious foods can’t be consumed at the same time. For instance, according to Ayurveda, the best time to eat fruit is in the morning. So having fruits like bananas, peaches or pears (fruits which can be consumed empty stomach) at some other time of the day would not be that beneficial for the body as compared to having them in the morning.
Let’s discuss a few easily available Ayurvedic solutions that could make your immunity healthier and stronger:
1. Amla (Indian Gooseberry) © iStock
It is considered as a storehouse of Vitamin C. Amla has a very important and frequent role in various formulations and treatments in Ayurveda. This green fruit not only is a source of Vitamin C but Calcium, Potassium, Iron and Vitamin B-Complex.
The anti-oxidants present in it help in fighting free radicals; Vitamin C keeps the hair color black and it acts as a shield against all the infections.
2. Khajoor (Dates) © iStock
Mention of Khajoor in Ayurveda takes place quite frequently. People don’t just find it delicious and fleshy but it also carries some beneficial nutrients and immunity-boosting properties.
It is a rich source of Iron, Magnesium, Selenium, Copper, Zinc and Vitamins A & B. Due to the abundance of iron in it; people with anemia are often recommended having dates. They are easy to add to your diet as dessert.
3. Moong Beans (Moong Dal) © iStock
Do you often experience lethargy, tiredness, or irregular bowel movements or notice a thick white coating on the surface of your tongue? Ayurveda suggests moong daal for such conditions because of its rich fibre content along with other essential vitamins, proteins and minerals.
The best way to get its maximum health benefit is by having moong dal khichdi.
4. Ghee © iStock
In Ayurveda, ghee is used for both medicinal and cooking purposes. Rather than just healing or shielding from one particular disease, ghee helps in balancing your complete body function.
One such ghee is Jiva A2 Ghee, which is sourced from the highest quality A2 milk from Gir cows. It has optimum levels of OMEGA 3 & OMEGA 6 fatty-acids which help in making the brain, heart, nervous system and eyes healthier, and boosts immune function naturally from within.
5. Turmeric © iStock
Every one of us must have heard from our grandparents to drink turmeric milk when sick or wounded. Turmeric is suggested because of its immunity-boosting power and immense healing properties.
It can be found in everyone’s kitchen, is used to enhance the colour and taste of the food. It also protects us from heart diseases and improves blood circulation in the body.
~ With Inputs from Dr Partap Chauhan, Director of Jiva Ayurveda, who is an author, public speaker, TV personality and Ayurvedacharya.

Sushant Singh Rajput’s tragic demise has broken and shattered hearts. Who would have imagined a rising star will go this way? His fans, friends, and family are fighting for justice for the actor as they are clueless about what happened to the star who was and still is an inspiration to a million others.
Like the shadow
I am
and
I am not...

— Sushant Singh Rajput (@itsSSR) October 26, 2019
After his demise, a lot of writers started to narrate Sushant’s life through their lens and wrote books on him. Some celebrated him and some outrightly discussed the conspiracy theories about his tragic demise. Here are the five books that are written on Sushant Singh Rajput post his demise.
The Legend Sushant Singh Rajput: The Heist Of National Treasure © Amazon
This was written by Delhi-based author Pradeep Sharma, whose pen name is Willking. If you read the description of the book available online, the author felt traumatized after his death and wanted to tell the entire world how hollow the world is without his presence. The author wanted to give him a tribute by writing a book that talks about his life, celebrating his success as an actor, his inclination towards science, and his lust for intelligence. He wanted to focus on the humanitarian aspect of his life. The author told IANS, “I didn't know SSR personally, nor did I ever meet him. But, when I heard about the news of his death, I was not able to accept it and faced severe anxiety, and I thought I would write a blog or an article and post it on social media. But later it occurred to me that I can write a book on him, as a tribute.”
Sushant Singh Rajput: Mystery © Goodreads
This book by Harsh Vardhan Chauhan seems like a desperate attempt at solving the case. Just a month to his death, this book was made available in the stores. We wonder what the author was thinking while writing this book when the CBI has just taken over the case.
Sushant's Depression Story: Possible Reasons Behind Sushant's Depression © Kindle
Yes, that’s the name of the book. The case is still under investigation but Khushal Chawla has already penned a book on the possibility of Sushant’s depression which is not yet proved. The author describes it as "a short book that tells you stories on Sushant's depression. I write this book because I feel that his depression story needs to be told to the world. The book has an important message at the end which I feel will change the way people see Indian cinema."
Book Under The Tree: Sushant © Amazon
This genuinely seemed like an attempt to celebrate the man behind the starry glitter. As the author Avani Jain describes it as, “a literary fiction dedicated to the wonderful life of Sushant Singh Rajput. Sushant was an actor, dancer, intellectual, poet, and explorer who had a compendium of beautiful stories, life lessons, and ideas to pass on.”
Remembering: Sushant Singh Rajput © Kindle
Parikshita Garud has already decided in her head that it’s suicide even before CBI shared their findings of the investigation which is still undergoing. The author’s description of the book reads, “This book is related to the legendary Bollywood actor Sushant Singh Rajput. I am going to publish some important points of his life in series. This is the first series where I have introduced Sushant Singh Rajput and depression. Nowadays depression and suicide are the most sensitive topics. I'm just trying to motivate people out there with the help of remembering Sushant Singh Rajput.”
We wonder if all of this is just monetizing someone's death. What do you think about these books?

Bella Thorne is easily the wildest actor to come out of Disney, she even surpassed Miley Cyrus way back. Her online presence is extremely interesting, to say the least, and well, it just got even better.
She recently made headlines after she joined the subscription-only platform OnlyFans and it was such a huge thing that she ended up earning $2 million in less than a week. Some sources are reporting that she actually earned $1 million in just a day.
Almost 15 crore rupees in a week? Not too shabby and honestly, good for her.
View this post on InstagramThank u @paper I’m excited to talk about the politics behind female body shaming & ***!!! With the amazing director sean baker who I’m proud to call my friend ❤️A post shared by (@bellathorne)
In case anyone is not familiar with what OnlyFans is, it's basically a content subscription service where people, usually with an already big following, post stuff that can only be unlocked after paying the monthly fee. They reveal themselves, literally.
Talking about it, Bella said, "OnlyFans is the first platform where I can fully control my image; without censorship, without judgment, and without being bullied online for being me."
View this post on InstagramTomorrow’s a big day for history does anyone know what it is ?A post shared by (@bellathorne)
The platform gets a lot of hate from misogynistic people online who can't see women getting to control their own sexuality and monetizing it. People are earning thousands of dollars through their OnlyFans and it's a pretty great opportunity for a lot of people.
Bella herself has some bright ideas for what to do with the money she earned. She plans on putting money towards charity as well as her production company. But, along with the money, she also plans on making a movie about her experience with director Sean Baker.
She said, "It’s a feature we are researching as I’m living it currently. What are the ins and outs? What does a platform like this do to its users? What’s the connective material between your life and your life inside the world of OnlyFans? ... How can it change your life for the worse and the better? How far are you willing to go, and how far do you WANT to go? You can be me, or this talented girl from Montana, and OnlyFans could change your life — if you want it to, of course."

And before anyone gets any ideas, there's no nudity on her account.
Also nooooo I’m not doing nudity!!! ️ https://t.co/vJECHqF4uW
— BITCHIMBELLATHORNE (@bellathorne) August 26, 2020
Although, people have mixed feelings.
Bella Thorne making an OF has me torn, cuz yay normalization of *** work, but boo cuz celebs and capitalism are going to ruin the platform soon.
— EeveeGrey (@grey_eevee) August 25, 2020
Great idea!
Bella Thorne can make a million dollars in a day on a fans only account but airlines need a bailout every time a financial crisis occurs. How about Delta gets a fans only account instead of my tax money? pic.twitter.com/rmQiBR80Ds

The royalty sure know how to live a luxe life. Not only their lifestyle, but every other component of their life, including their royal abode calls for a second look. The same could be said for the mansion which belonged to the son of Maharaja Duleep Singh, the last Maharaja of the Sikh Empire in the 19th century.
© Rediff-Beauchamp Estates
Such is the charm of this mansion located in the heart of London, that it has been put up for sale for a whopping 15.5 million pounds or Rs 151 crore! What makes this mansion historically and culturally invaluable? Let’s find out.
© Rediff-Beauchamp Estates
1. This mansion served as the former family home of Maharaja Duleep Singh's son Prince Victor Albert Jay Duleep Singh, which was presented to him as a marital home.
2. Maharaja Ranjeet Singh’s youngest son Duleep Singh was the last Maharaja of the Sikh Empire but was exiled to England after the British took it over from him.
© TOI
3. Maharaja Duleep Singh’s eldest son, Prince Victor, was born in 1866 in London where Queen Victoria was his godmother. Years later, he had a mixed-race marriage to Lady Anne Coventry, the daughter of the 9th Earl of Coventry.
4. Reportedly, the mansion was purchased by the East India Company once construction was completed in 1868. It was then registered as an investment property which was to be leased for rental income. The East India Company had leased the property to the Duleep Singh family for a token peppercorn rent.
© Rediff-Beauchamp Estates
5. The mansion is located in The Little Boltons which is considered to be one of the most sought-after residential areas in south-west Kensington.
6. It is a 5,613-square-feet Italianate-style villa, with two large roof terraces, two formal reception rooms, an informal family room, a family kitchen and breakfast room, five bedrooms, including a "sumptuous" principal bedroom suite, a gymnasium and two staff bedrooms.
© Rediff-Beauchamp Estates
7. The mansion is said to have been designed keeping in mind great proportions and benefits which include features such as high ceilings, large living spaces and a 52 ft rear garden, amongst other things.
8. Upon Prince Victor’s death 1918 in Monaco, his widow Anne continued to live in The Little Boltons mansion until her death in 1956.
9. After it went into private ownership, the semi-detached villa was refurbished and modernised in 2010.

Google's Pixel line up has been somewhat lacklustre in terms of the hardware. We didn't even get the Pixel 4 in India this time and we're still waiting for the Pixel 4a to come here.
Well, in the meantime we're now hearing new rumours about the Pixel 5.
In case you didn't get the memo, it's worth knowing the Pixel 5 is expected to be a mid-range device. It's said to have a 90Hz display on the front, a Snapdragon 765G SoC, and 8GB RAM with 128GB storage.
Another leak from Reddit showed an image of the Pixel 5 alongside the Pixel 4a and it looks, well, just like the larger Pixel 4a.
© Reddit
The disappointing part is that the Redditor said the Pixel 5 will have an additional camera but it'll be a wide-angle lens instead of a telephoto. The main camera is said to be a 12MP Sony IMX363 sensor, which is the same as the one seen on Pixel 2 that came out like 3 years ago.
Yes, the Pixel camera has gotten better thanks to the software features, but it's been slacking in terms of the hardware.
Round-Up
Now, if you round up the rumours from multiple sources, it looks like the Pixel 5 is going to be a mid-range phone with a mid-range processor.
It means it's going to be slower than the Pixel 4 that comes with a Snapdragon 855 SoC. And in terms of the camera, we're apparently looking at a very old sensor from the Pixel 2.
© YouTube/Android Authority
This whole comparison is because of Google's decision to transition from flagship to a mid-range phone. That's what is making people make these weird comparisons but it'll be sad to be if these turn out true.
But with all that being said, all these are still rumours and we still have to wait for an official announcement to know exactly what's happening.

The worldwide retail network may have taken a step back due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, but none of that affects the world's most valuable company. Yes, we're talking about Apple, which just opened a brand new store in Singapore.
It's not just an ordinary store that we're talking about here. Just take a look at this -
We're excited to share that Apple Marina Bay Sands will open soon! Stay tuned for updates: https://t.co/RPrRlBIMV4#applemarinabaysands #marinabaysands #theshoppesmbs pic.twitter.com/aNbXBu9VMg
— Marina Bay Sands (@marinabaysands) August 24, 2020
Yeah, it's floating. It's the most over-the-top thing Apple has ever done and you know what? We dig it. It fits Apple's image of showing off the pricey and unique design. It's the most "Apple thing" we've seen in a while, which is what makes it so fascinating.
So, this particular retail store is located in Singapore on the city's state's waterfront. It's called Apple Marina Bay Sands and holds the tag for the first floating Apple store in the world. It looks like a giant glowing orb on water.
This is Apple's third store in Singapore and what a way to put their name in the news with it. During the day, the store looks like some sort of a spaceship, but at night it just turns into a glowing orb. Looks absolutely insane, right?
Here's a teaser video from Apple to show off their new store -
Here’s Apple’s fun teaser video for the upcoming Marina Bay Sands store in Singapore: pic.twitter.com/ngDHk1apDV

Well, we can't for the pandemic lockdowns to get over so we can visit Singapore and check the store out in all its glory.

As someone who hasn’t had the time to maintain an elaborate beauty routine, experiencing issues like hair loss, dandruff and premature ageing of the skin is common. At this point, you’re probably hoping for an all-in-one saviour to step in. So say hello to your grooming heroes - cold-pressed oils.
Their nourishing properties promote hair growth and youthful skin. They are even better for sensitive skin that requires constant care.
The benefits of cold-pressed oils don’t end here. So many wellness brands are proudly launching these oils to accent salad dressings and improve cooking style since they were pronounced as a healthy alternative to refined oils.
You must have also seen your favourite influencer speak about them on the Gram or noticed one of them in your friend’s wardrobe but the question is, what makes cold-pressed oils so fame-worthy. Let us tell you all about the magic in these potions!
The concept of cold-pressed oils isn’t new but the term has recently taken over both wellness and beauty industries by storm.
What is Cold-Pressed Oil?The oils that we use for our hair and skin and for cooking are extracted by heating seeds, nuts, fruits and vegetables. During this process, they lose their nutrients.
Cold pressing is a method where this oil is extracted by applying pressure without the use of heat. This protects the quality, taste and nutritional value of oil.
So while using cold-pressed oil for cooking, for skincare or haircare, rest assured that you’re reaping the most benefits, the natural way.
Cold-Pressed Oil Vs Refined OilCold-pressed oils are free from chemicals, are packed with all essential nutrients including antioxidants, protein and lecithin, an essential fat for body cells that soothes and moisturises the skin.
Most refined oils, even the ones that are advertised around the concept of weight loss, are packed with chemicals. They are highly-processed through extreme heat and seldom have any nutrients.
Cold-Pressed Oil BenefitsCold-pressed oils are good for overall wellness. Their benefits can be experienced when they are applied to the skin, hair or consumed with food.

There’s no denying that loafers are one of the most versatile shoes for men, but one can often get confused about whether they should wear loafers with their formals or casuals.
If this sounds like a familiar dilemma to you, then read on as we settle the formal vs casual loafers dispute once and for all.
What’s The Difference?Loafers started as casual shoes, and over the years have become more stylish and well designed, and have been accepted into the formal shoe world as well.
You can pair them with literally anything in your wardrobe.
But that’s not all, they can elevate your casual looks too and also goes perfectly with your formals.
Because of their versatile nature, it is unfair to put loafer under a particular category (casual or formal). Nonetheless, here’s a simple classification. Most loafers come in leather or suede upper.
The leather loafers are mostly considered formal because of their sophisticated built and looks. The suede loafers exude a more casual or outdoorsy vibe. Let’s get into the details of each of the six types of loafers for men.
Pump LoafersThese loafers are strictly formal and should be worn with a tuxedo or formal black suit. They feature a black shiny upper and a low-cut design. Perfect for weddings or strict formal affairs. Definitely not for everyday wear.
__ECOMPRODUCT__444__
Horsebit LoafersUnlike pump loafers for men that can only be worn with a tux or black suit, Horsebit loafers can be paired with any type of formal wear. These loafers are considered more dressy than the rest, however, they can also be teamed with semi-formals and smart casuals.
__ECOMPRODUCT__445__
Penny LoafersSome fashion gurus might not agree on penny loafers falling after Horsebit loafers on the formality scale, however, we believe that it depends on the material you choose. The leather ones definitely exude a formal demeanor, but suede loafers which are quite the style demand these days have more of a casual vibe.
__ECOMPRODUCT__446__
Belgian LoafersOriginally, Belgian loafers were made for indoor use as slippers. But after the makeover into a dressy alternative, Belgian loafers can now elevate your casual outfits and make the perfect pair to your formals. These loafers come in premium soft-sole which makes it an ideal choice for everyday wear.
__ECOMPRODUCT__447__
Tassel LoafersTassel loafers may fall at the end of the spectrum, but they are the most versatile of all. It might not be a wise choice for a black-tie event, but you can pair them with casuals, semi-formals and everything in-between.
__ECOMPRODUCT__448__
Slipper LoafersSlipper loafers are closest to the original incarnation of loafers. After their makeover from casual to formal, they were considered strictly formal and worn with suits and tuxedos. However, the fad faded quickly. Now slipper loafers are seen with mostly chinos and shorts. These loafers feature suede or velvet upper which makes them casual in appearance.
__ECOMPRODUCT__449__
BottomlineLoafers for men are growing in popularity and there are many designs and variations available now. And we can’t say enough that they are the most versatile shoes out there. Formal or casual, loafers can give a classy and stylish touch to your look.
However, while thinking formals it wise to go for leather loafers for men. For casuals, you can experiment with any style, design, or pattern according to your mood and fancy.

Advertisers and most corporations would have you believe that brands are everything. There is a reason why companies and corporate entities spend crores on advertising and designing logos.
And believe it or not, it actually seems to work. Just by looking at a logo, people identify their values and themselves with a certain company. Heck, people pay a premium for particular brand logos.
The thing is though, can you identify some of the most prominent brands?

Call him over the top, but Ranveer Singh is one actor who never shies away from showing off his sartorial choices. Be it with his most bizarre outfits or hairstyles, the actor knows how to turn heads with his eccentric and wacky fashion sense. With such choices, there's constant criticism but Ranveer owns up every time and pulls off versatile outfits with elan.

His abundant energy is not just seen in Red carpet outfits or promotional events, but he dons the dramatic avatar, even when he is at the airport. While comfort and style often go hand in hand, Ranveer usually picks outfits that make a statement - case in point, his recent airport appearance, where he was seen in a rather swell outfit.
Let's take a look at it in detail.
© Viral Bhayani
Dressed from head-to-toe in comfortable yet a head-turning outfit, Ranveer's choice of wearing a black T-shirt with baggy pants, added a contemporary appeal. To make it look more eccentric, he further accessorised his T-shirt with a fanny pack from Fendi. The monogram detailing of the bag took the whole aesthetic of his outfit a notch higher.

With that being said, there's one aspect of the outfit, that's quite interesting. Ranveer's flared pants are unlike anything we have seen in the past. These pants have denim curtains, which we reckon is quite a quirky choice. If we were to dissect the style of these pants, they score high on unconventional fashion. The light wash and the baggy silhouette of these pants along with denim cutout in between make it a versatile addition.

To finish this suave look, Ranveer pulled off the man bun really well and of course the mask game, since we are in a pandemic right now. This outfit also paired well with Deepika's ensemble as she was seen wearing almost a similar outfit with a baggy T-shirt coupled with flared pants and a fanny pack.
Even though these pants might appear strange at first, we have to say Baba pulled it off.

Arjun plays the role of a banker, Sahil, in the series. We caught up with him to understand more about his sense of style and how he styled his look for his character Sahil in the show which was shot at home.
1. What is your personal style statement like?It's really casual, I like to keep things comfortable. If it were up to me I would always keep things casual in terms of my outfits.

2. Who is your style icon?I identify with 'The Dude' from The Big Lebowski. The character was played by Jeff Bridges. He's quite a style icon.

3. What's your go-to zoom night outfit?A proper shirt and maybe boxers because it's not like the other person can see what I'm wearing waist down.

4. One wardrobe staple that you can't do without?These days, it happens to be my hairband because my hair's like a lion's mane, so a hairband helps me tame it.

5. What's that one fashion trend you don't understand?I don't understand the requirement or need for invisible socks. After decades of wearing socks, I don't understand why It's important to hide them all of a sudden. However, I hide them when my stylist asks me to for a particular outfit.

6. Boots or sneakers?I prefer sneakers. Once I try on a pair of sneakers that I like, I tend to stick to them for a relatively long duration of time before switching to the next pair.

7. Can you talk about how Sahil was styled in Gone Game? Did you use your own clothes?For the show, we were told to find clothes within a particular pallet and we were asked to choose clothes we were all comfortable wearing at home while shooting. Usually, I wear boxers at home, I was wearing track pants for the show just to be polite.

8. What's the best fashion accessory from the costume that you love?These days, it's my hairband, but I wouldn't necessarily call it a fashion accessory, it's more functional.

Sonu Sood has been doing a lot more than helping a multitude of people with rescue ops, financial aid and even work opportunities every chance he gets, especially during the pandemic. Indians cannot believe how this one-man-army is getting all of it done and never complaining about a thing.
Recently, Sonu Sood revealed that he receives close to 32,000 requests for help on a daily basis and although it isn’t possible to cater to all of them, he still tries his best to offer solutions every chance he gets.
Naturally, people have come to admire and respect the man for his good heart and honest words.

So, when he was asked to share a message for aspiring actors, given all the uncertainties and debates going on within the industry, Sonu Sood gave ET a very honest and straight response.
“I knew that journey is going to be tough when you come as an outsider. It will always be tough. But the only thing that I want to tell everyone is that you need to have nerves of steel if you want to come to this industry and if you want to make it big, you should have patience, perseverance, and a lot of wishes from your parents that only can make you what you want to become.” he said.

Now, although this message may have been shared for aspiring actors, we totally believe this is applicable to each and every one of us who dares to dream and has the will to chase after it. Without patience and perseverance, even a winning game can be lost within seconds, so it only makes sense to patiently keep working hard towards realising our goals.
Sharing his own personal journey and learnings as an actor, Sonu Sood further added, “I would just like to tell this, stay strong. Don't lose hope that things are not happening, things take time. I gave myself one year and it took me 5-6 years to get my first break. So yeah, you just need to have patience and believe in yourself.”

True, things may not always work out how we had planned or imagined them to, but that doesn’t mean we give up and call it quits.
If there is one thing to be learnt from Sonu Sood and his life it is what Rancho said in 3 Idiots, “Kabil bano, kamyabi jhakk maar ke piche aayegi.”

For a youngster who was busy honing his skills as a chess player, Yuzvendra Chahal has undoubtedly come a long way to become one of the country's preferred spinners in limited-overs cricket. Making his debut in 2016, the leggie has managed to rise through the ranks in Indian cricket and forge a vital partnership with fellow spinner Kuldeep Yadav for his side.
His attacking leg-spin, which has often cut a sorry figure for some of the best in the business, has garnered praise from cricket pundits and fans alike. But, in a team where fitness has become a top priority, Chahal is probably not the fittest member of the 'Men in Blue' brigade.

While the likes of Virat Kohli, Hardik Pandya and Jasprit Bumrah all boast chiselled physiques, Chahal, on the contrary, looks pretty thin - something that has made him the butt of all jokes at the hands of his fellow teammates in the past. But, the Indian leggie is all smiles and takes the friendly banter in good spirits which is exactly why we love him.
The 30-year-old recently reached Dubai alongside his mates at the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) for the thirteenth edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL). As he continues to remain in quarantine, a mandatory move for all players, Chahal decided to use the idle time to shoot some photos.
View this post on InstagramThe best place to pose #naturelover #shotongopro 📸A post shared by (@yuzi_chahal23)
Looking relaxed in a tee and jeans, paired with flip-flops, Chahal struck a pose in what looked like a cottage's balcony, with a lot of greenery in the backdrop. "The best place to pose #naturelover," he captioned the photo both on Instagram and Twitter.

Chahal's post attracted all sorts of reactions from fans who are clearly missing him in action. But, a noticeable comment on Chahal's Instagram post was from his fiancee Dhanashree Verma.
Clearly in awe of her partner, the YouTube dance sensation commented: "My poser" on Chahal's post.
We said “Yes” along with our families️ #rokaceremony pic.twitter.com/Sf4t7bIgQt
— Yuzvendra Chahal (@yuzi_chahal) August 8, 2020
The Indian cricketer had surprised everyone after sharing the news of engagement with Dhanashree earlier this month. The Indian spinner took to Twitter and shared a photo of himself in the company of his soon-to-be wife Dhanashree after their 'Roka ceremony' which also had the families of the couple in attendance.
Since then, the cricket fans have adored the young couple and showered them with good wishes. However, as soon as Chahal's 'nature lover' photo surfaced, many resorted to the old jokes about his thin body structure and advised him to bulk up for the sake of his fiancee.
