    As we say, known is a drop and unknown is an ocean, there are so many interesting things in the world that will take us a lifetime to keep learning and exploring about. Say for instance, languages. Did you know there are up to 7,000 languages spoken across the world? Isn’t that fascinating? 
    It may come as a surprise to many of you that despite having so much global exposure and learning and understanding different languages, there are some foreign words which have no English translation. Yes, you read that right!
    Interestingly, an English artist Emma Block created a series called More Than Just A Word, an illustrative book that consists of untranslatable words of love from across the globe. She created the series in partnership with jewelry company Vashi, who provided her with the meanings of romantic phrases across the places and essentially set her loose. 
    Here we have listed out some of the interesting words from across different languages including Hindi and Tamil that cannot be translated in English:
    1. Schnapsidee (German) – A plan which is hatched when you are drunk, or a plan so ridiculous you must have been drunk when you thought it up.
    2. Cafuné (Portugese) – The act of running your fingers through a lover’s hair.

    3. Oodal (Tamil) – The fake anger lovers display following an argument.

    © viraha pinterest
    4. Litost (Czech) – Defined by Czech writer Milan Kundera as “a state of torment created by the sudden sight of one’s own misery”.

    5. Viraha (Hindi) – The realisation of love through separation.

    6. Jayus (Indonesian) – A joke so unfunny that you can’t help but laugh.

    7. Tsundoku (Japanese) – When you buy a book and never get round to reading it.
    8. Toska (Russian) – Described by Vladmir Nabokov, the Russian-American novelist, as “a sensation of great spiritual anguish, often without any specific cause”.
    9. Abbiocco (Italian) – The drowsiness you feel after eating a large meal.
    10. Odnoliub (Russian) - Someone that only has one love in their life
    Tell us if you know more such interesting words.

    A source quoted by Mid-Day revealed , “They have known each other for the past few years. They met through common friends from the TV world. But recently, the two have got close. That they are more than just friends was evident from their body language at a Holi bash last month. Vikas and Ankita often hang out together with common friends. Vikas has also been spotted visiting Ankita at her Malad home. Considering that Ankita went through heartbreak just last year, she has been taking things slowly.”

    Today, Kobe ‘Bean’ Bryant would have turned 42-years-old had he not lost his life in the unfortunate helicopter crash earlier this year. 
    Retiring after having one of the most iconic careers in all of sports, the Los Angeles Lakers legend was supposed to spend happy days with his lovely wife and three daughters.
    He was supposed to make some more Oscar-worthy movies, travel all around the world and enjoy the spoils of his countless victories and train his girls to achieve greatness in whatever field they’d wish to choose.

    Kobe belonged to that rare category of people who’d dedicated their lives to perfecting any one skill. Anything else other than that and they simply did not have the time for it. 
    On numerous occasions, Kobe spoke about how he wanted to become the best basketball player in the world and considering the kind of legacy he left behind, it would be an understatement to say that he is one of the greatest of all time.
    View this post on InstagramA post shared by (@nbadab_)
    Sure, he might not have the most number of championships in the history of the league, he didn’t win multiple ‘Most Valuable Player’ awards during the regular season and he wasn’t the most athletically gifted player to step on the wooden court.
    Even then, the greatest of ballers were afraid to go toe-to-toe with the Black Mamba. People who wanted to be truly welcomed to Kobe’s team, they had to prove their worth, it was only then that they were a true LA Lakers member. 

    One of the greatest pieces of advice he’d ever given to his fans was “failure doesn’t exist”. Kobe believed that “failure” was just a figment of one’s imagination. If you are unable to achieve something on any given day, the story goes on. You learn something from that experience and use it to your advantage the next day and the day after that.
    His obsession with becoming the best version of himself forced him to do the kind of things nobody in their sane minds would do. Be it showing up for practice at 5 AM and leaving at 7 PM, or not going away from the court unless he’s made 400 shots, that is the ‘Mamba Mentality’.
    View this post on InstagramA post shared by (@vilas_nayak)
    It is maybe because of this reason that Kobe somehow managed to inspire millions of Indian basketball fans to keep practising and keep working on their craft of choice, without even visiting the country even once.
    That’s why when the horrible news of the Mamba’s demise reached India, we did everything to honour him and the story he told the world through his actions. 
    From speed-painting to drawing murals on the court, from candlelight vigils to 24 seconds of silence, the Indian basketball community did everything in their power to let the man know that he was and will forever be loved. 
    Happy birthday, Kobe. You are here with us in our hearts and in all the work we put in every single day while trying to be as great as you.

    Since life at home is slowly turning into a drab-trap that we all want out of but can’t find the exit to, there’s always that possibility of finding something interesting in the virtual world. 
    Now, with not only web shows, but also, mainstream Bollywood movies vying for our attention online, the OTT platform appears to be promising more sing now than ever.
    Yet, in our quest to “keep up” with the pop culture biggies, we often tend to miss out on equally good content that isn't hyped up as much but happens to be well-made and deserving of our time and audience.
    Here are 5 such crime drama series on the web that more people need to check out, because these are goooood:
    1. Apharan © AltBalaji
    If Gangs of Wasseypur and Sacred Games happen to be on your ‘good stuff’ list, we promise you will love this one. 

    Right from the plot, to the screenplay and direction, Apharan checks all the boxes when it comes to convincing crime series. The touch of suspense and a good dose of action only make this show pack a punch. This Arunoday Singh-Mahie Gill starrer is worth your time.
    2. Asur © Voot
    It seems like not enough people are talking about this crime thriller that tackles serial killings through the lens of mythology and religion. 

    The plot is gripping and the lead pair comprising Arshad Warsi and Barun Sobti, put on a convincing show. Its crisp narrative style and riveting script will keep you hooked, although the loose ends here and there make for an added layer of personalisation.
    3. Bhaukaal © MxPlayer
    This one has Mohit Raina and Abhimanyu Singh in leading roles but that isn’t the only thing that makes this show worth your while. 

    Based on the life of IPS officer Navneet Sikera, this series offers a fresh perspective on how ugly crime and terror can get when left unchecked by those who are tasked with maintaining order. Gritty, loud and with a lot of punches thrown in the mix, get ready to feel strongly about the story and the main characters on the show.
    4. Rangbaaz © Zee5
    Another show based on Gorakhpur gangster Shri Prakash Shukla, Rangbaaz offers an unadulterated take on this man’s life. 

    With names like Tigmanshu Dhulia, Ranvir Shorey and Ravi Kishan backing the show beside Saqib Saleem, watch this one for its great cast, gripping storyline that’s shrouded in politics, crime and real drama. 
    5. Ek Thi Begum © MxPlayer
    This show will leave a mark given how craftily the story of Sapna, or should we say, Ashraf who is the real inspiration behind this show, is shown. 

    In real life, Ashraf’s gangster husband Mehmood was killed by Dawood Ibrahim in 1986 and Anuja Sathe pulls off Ashraf’s vengeful act to perfection in the show. Chinmay Mandlekar is equally good as is the fascinating plot and the thrill of revenge and passion.

    One of the greatest, most entertaining wrestlers of the modern era, John Cena made his transition into Hollywood a couple of years ago and has been a part of some hilarious movies ever since.
    However, signing up with the DC Extended Universe as Peacemaker for the second Suicide Squad movie has to be his biggest and boldest move as an actor till date. Why? Well because of this goofy helmet:
    © Warner Bros.
    According to the teaser clip launched at the DC FanDome recently, the WWE legend will be playing the role of a superhero who loves peace so much, he is willing to kill for it. 

    Who is Peacemaker?Christopher Smith aka Peacemaker used to be a pacifist diplomat at the time of his origin in the DC Comics. Initially, he used non-lethal weapons to maintain peace but went on to adopt more violent means to enforce it.

    Over the years, it was clarified that his obsession with maintaining peace came from the delusions that he used to have of his father wearing a Schutzstaffel uniform who used to taunt him all the time and he had to take up violence to compensate for the shame of having a Nazi father. 
    What’s With The Helmet?@JohnCena is supposedly playing Peacemaker in the new #SuicideSquad movie. Will he wear one of comics' most awkward-looking helmets? And how did Peacemaker survive all those years without accidentally blowing up? His costume was laced with different types of explosives#JohnCena pic.twitter.com/h0Q0NZjJ7M
    — shivansh_shukla (@imshivanshshukl) August 7, 2020
    According to the comic books, Peacemaker’s helmet was loaded with all kinds of weapons including an RDX bomb with a hidden fuse and a laser-ray in the forehead area, an ultrasonic beam to stun his foes, voice duplication equipment, an underwater mode and a pocket radar.
    Now, even though the DCEU Peacemaker’s helmet is nowhere close to being as stylish as the one in the comics, it has its own charm.
    © Warner Bros.
    The shiny metallic finish, the semi-circular beam that goes all around the superhero’s head, the pointy ends under the eyes and the distinctive spot on the forehead, presumably for that badass laser ray, who wouldn’t want to own this beauty?

    Despite all the jokes, Cena is wearing the helmet with a lot of pride and calls himself the “douchey Captain America”. 
    Fans from the actor and those of the DC comics are absolutely stunned after seeing that the costume designers really went all-out with the Peacemaker’s look and spared no details and are loving it too:
    “douchey Captain America” aka John Cena as Peacemaker, digging the comic accurate wardrobe!! #DCFanDome #TheSuicideSquad well done @JamesGunn pic.twitter.com/1gw6m3hkFK

    — Carousel of Regress (@itsstillalex) August 22, 2020"You're like a douchey Captain America."
    John Cena: Okay, I got it.

    Did he just mention Cap!? And the #Peacemaker's helmet somehow looks like Magneto's helmet. I'm totally into his comic accurate look. It actually looks cool on @JohnCena. #TheSuicideSquad #DCFanDome https://t.co/APh2MbvH5e
    — Janelle Villadiego (@jdcv_17) August 23, 2020you, dumb and foolish: that batman trailer was awesome

    me, wise and clever: john cena wearing the peacemaker costume complete with helmet
    — Carousel of Regress (@itsstillalex) August 23, 2020Never figured on seeing Peacemaker with that huge dopey ass helmet in a movie but @JohnCena is gonna nail it, particularly as I'm assuming he's going to be leaning into over the top earnestness in a really fun way. #TheSuicideSquad
    — Kevin Hamilton (@1KevHamilton) August 23, 2020Oh my god John Cena has the Peacemaker helmet I love it #DCFanDome

    After Wonder Woman, Gal Gadot and Batman actor Ben Affleck joined the DC Comics fans’ movement to force the Warner Bros. to release the Zack Snyder version of the highly-criticised Justice League we got in 2017, and the studio finally released a full trailer of the cut and it definitely looks a lot better than the original.
    #ReleaseTheSnyderCut pic.twitter.com/wssMmlPqEK
    — Gal Gadot (@GalGadot) November 17, 2019
    Here are five major takeaways from the 2-minute 42-second clip that instantly captured our attention (SPOILERS AHEAD): 
    1. Bruce Wayne’s ‘Knightmare’ Comes True © Warner Bros - YouTube
    Snyder had plans of making a total of three Justice League films and had envisioned our heroes losing the battle to Darkseid in the first one. This is why he added the much-talked-about and confusing ‘Knightmare’ in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, which was completely forgotten in Justice League when it came out.

    According to the first few frames of the trailer, the Synder cut is looking to revisit the director’s idea and eventually, turn Bruce Wayne’s nightmare into reality.
    2. Cyborg’s Football Match & Accident © Warner Bros - YouTube
    The thing Snyder was most excited about while releasing his version of the film was his freedom to develop Cyborg’s character. According to the trailer, we might be able to see Victor Stone’s football match that he wins before getting in a car crash that kills his mother and him.

    Later, Victor’s father resurrects him with the help of the mother box as the original story shows (although a few minor details may have been changed).
    3. Superman’s Black Suit © Warner Bros - YouTube
    Snyder wished to introduce Superman’s black suit in Justice League but after Joss Whedon took over, he thought it would have been too dark for the movie and instead, made the Man of Steel return to his blue and red costume. 

    Zack later announced that he was gunning for the black suit because it allowed the Kryptonian to absorb the radiation of the sun (where his powers come from) more vigorously.
    4. Flash Saves Iris West © Warner Bros - YouTube
    While Flash got a decent introduction in Justice League, Snyder wished to do so with some more details and wanted to make Barry Allen’s love interest, Iris West debut in the movie. 

    Iris’ scenes were removed from the Whedon cut as the director believed it wouldn’t add a lot of weightage to the movie’s story. Zack, on the other hand, wished to introduce and establish her as a proper character for the independent Flash movie in 2022. 
    5. The Cosmic Treadmill © Warner Bros - YouTube
    One final thing that we might have seen during the final seconds of the trailer was the DCEU’s rendition of Flash’s Cosmic Treadmill that he uses to travel through time (Snyder had teased the fans about the introduction of the device in his version of the movie). 

    This would also answer how Flash was able to travel back in time to warn Wayne about the possibility of the global destruction at the hands of Darkseid.

    The DC FanDome virtual convention gave us the first-ever teaser trailer for The Batman with Robert Pattinson portraying the character of Bruce Wayne.
    Director Matt Reeves released the 2-minute 23-second trailer and it is safe to say that the fans are not disappointed. 

    From the get-go, the tone of the movie feels really dark, which is a great sign for DC Comics fans who had been complaining about how the filmmakers were hoping to add humour to their movies while trying to mimic the Marvel Cinematic Universe but were shooting themselves in the foot at the end of the day. 
    In the trailer, the city of Gotham is crawling with dangerous criminals and murders and iconic villains from the ‘Caped Crusader’s’ world like The Penguin and The Riddler still climbing up that crime-ladder, still pretty early in their destructive careers.
    Robert Pattinson’s Bruce Wayne:
    Robert Pattinson as #Batman pic.twitter.com/5uCZsUibJn
    — best of robert pattinson (@bestpattinson) August 23, 2020
    According to the trailer, Batman works closely with Commissioner James Gordon. He gets stared at but faces no objections by any of the police officers as he makes his way to the dead body in a crime scene.
    Pattinson’s Bruce Wayne looks shattered and has a slightly more gothic feel as compared to Ben Affleck or Christian Bale’s version of the billionaire vigilante. He is younger but can throw mean punches, even go a little overboard at times.
    Reeves revealed that the story for the film comes from a time when Wayne has already spent a couple of years as the masked hero but isn’t Batman yet. Having said that, the director also clarified that people are “afraid of him, quite frankly”.
    I edited in Robert Pattinson’s “I’m Batman” from 10years ago. #TheBatman #DCFanDome pic.twitter.com/ubdYgwUXVW
    — robert pattinsonioni (@ConverseStew) August 23, 2020
    Pattinson’s Bruce is a lot more disarranged which is in stark contrast to the versions played by Affleck and Bale. He doesn’t care about the eye-paint that stays on his face even when he removes the mask, the iconic Wayne Manor is nowhere to be found and he continues to smash his enemies skull even after he is down and out cold.
    Other Important Characters:
    Zoe Kravitz as Catwoman in The Batman. That's the tweet. #DCFanDome pic.twitter.com/TZN8YfztzD
    — Jay.. (@x_warinmymind) August 23, 2020
    The trailer also shows us some interesting things about the rest of the characters from the film, such as Jeffrey Wright’s James Gordon and Zoe Kravitz’s Catwoman. Andy Serkis’ Alfred can also be heard at the back.
    Catwoman’s make-do mask for a cat-burglar, for example, shows that it has not been too long since they’ve gotten into the dangerous business. 
    Verdict On First Impression:
    THE BATMAN trailer looks like SE7EN on steroids. It’s dripping in atmosphere and dread. Robert Pattinson’s Batman voice is literal perfection. Yes, this is going to be very good. pic.twitter.com/Az8mdeezb0
    — Dan (@Danimalish) August 22, 2020
    Many, including myself, believed that the responsibility of playing Batman might get too much for Robert Pattinson. People inevitably thought of his performance as Edward Cullen in the Twilight movie franchise and created a belief system around how he was destined to screw up.
    Having said that, the first look is absolutely amazing. From his vulnerable yet dangerous face to the way he says “I am vengeance” after beating the pulp out of a bad guy, this new and darker take on Bruce Wayne somehow feels refreshing and can work in favour of the English actor.

    While the movie was scheduled to come out in June 2021, the coronavirus pandemic caused major delays in production. According to reports, The Batman hopes to be in theatres by October 2021.
