    Crime dramas have always had a special place in popular culture. With complex characters, intricate design, and gripping plots, crime-dramas are also a guilty pleasure for a lot of people. But, aside from these hallmarks, crime dramas also lay emphasis on the person who solves the crime. It's either a cop or a detective, but either which way, the detective's personal life, and personality are as much the focus of the story as the crime as it contributes to the storyline. Another aspect that people usually focus on is the detective or the cop's personal style. Usually, it's very distinct and is inspired by the era the story is based in.
    Here's looking at some of the best-dressed fictional detectives in crime dramas.
    1. Mindhunter © IMDB
    Holden Ford is an FBI agent who tries to understand the psychological aspect behind brutal murders like the coed killer Ed Kemper and Son Of Sam. The first season is set in 1977. The show's costumes mimic the decade. Holden too is styled like a traditional FBI agent from the 70s. With slicked-back hair, black suits, and printed ties, his costumes seamlessly blend in with the 70s set design.

    2. Sherlock © IMDB
    BBC's Sherlock has varying timelines. However, the predominant one shows Sherlock played by Benedict Cumberbatch in his signature outfit, a long black trench coat, and a scarf as he traverses through the streets of London while solving crimes in his head.

    3. Bad Boys © IMDB
    Detectives Mike Lowrey and Marcus Burnett join the Miami Police Department's special team AMMO to bring down a ruthless criminal. Unlike other detectives on the list, their style can be defined as more effortless and laidback complementing Miami's beach aesthetic.

    4. Knives Out © IMDB
    An Oscar-nominated gripping murder mystery, Knives Out sees detective Benoit Blanc played by Daniel Craig as he solves the curious case of the supposed death of crime novelist Harlan Thrombey. In the film, detective Blanc can be seen wearing sharp suits with well-fitted suspenders and aside from his terrific performance, one can not help but admire the character's wardrobe.

    5. True Detective © IMDB
    In the third season of the series, we witness Wayne Hays played by Mahershala Ali solve a brutal crime. The drama slips in between three separate time periods in 1980, 1990, and 2015. And the character of Mahershala Ali is seen wearing different costumes corresponding to the different eras and his age as time progresses. It's interesting to witness how time affects his sense of fashion over the years.

    Have you found yourself sitting in front of your TV or laptop, indecisively scrolling on Netflix figuring out what to watch? Well, you are not alone and it looks like Netflix wants to help. 
    The video streaming service is currently testing a new feature that'll help you, well, find some content to watch.
    That's right. Netflix is testing a new 'Shuffle Play' button, with which it hopes to help people watch something instead of just scrolling through the content and pass out.
    © Netflix
    Some users have reported that they're seeing this new 'Shuffle Play' button on their account. It seems to be appearing on Netflix TV app's user profile screen, right beneath their display image and name. 

    It's also showing up in the left-side menu bar for some users inside their profile.
    OMG i just realized Netflix added a "play something" feature DO YOU KNOW HOW LONG I'VE WAITED FOR THIS
    — syd • oh.. wow.. sports • (@sydtheshipper) August 12, 2020
    It's not called Shuffle Play, though. Netflix is planning to call it the 'Play Something' button, which seems appropriate.  
    We think it's a great addition to the pool of features that Netflix has added over the years to make our experience better on the platform. 
    Obviously, letting Netflix decide what to watch will not yield the best results but, at least, you won't blame yourself or your friends for recommending a bad show or a movie. It's on the algorithm.  
    But in all honestly, the algorithm probably knows you better than your friends, when it comes to what you like to watch, so there's a good chance that it'll play something that you like. 
    There’s a new Netflix feature called Shuffle Play that picks a show for you and starts it.

    I’m on show 15 that I immediately stopped and my night looks to be seeing what the Netflix gods will pick next.
    — MBJet (@mbjet) August 18, 2020
    This feature isn't available for all. You may or may not see this particular feature on your profile. But we really hope they finish testing it and push it for all because it's definitely going to come in handy.

    After a few uneventful months, owing to the Coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak, cricketing action is once again set to take the centre-stage as the much-anticipated Indian Premier League (IPL) comes calling. The thirteenth edition of India's T20 extravaganza, following a few hiccups, is all set to enthral fans when it begins from 19th September in the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
    With the cancellation of major cricket events including the likes of Asia Cup and T20 World Cup this year, the upcoming edition of the IPL appears to be the lone source of cricketing action for fans who have been denied pulsating contests due to COVID-19 threat. 
    While fans have been anxiously awaiting the upcoming tournament, it is also being fancied by cricketers who have not been in action for a while now.
    View this post on Instagram🤙🏼A post shared by (@virat.kohli)
    And, that's probably why the social media accounts of most cricketers have been full of their preparatory posts. We recently saw Virat Kohli sweating it out on the treadmill in a bid to get in shape for the tournament. Then, there was KL Rahul who was seen getting some batting time in the company of Mayank Agarwal and Anil Kumble.
    View this post on InstagramUp and running with @mumbaiindians 💪A post shared by (@rohitsharma45)
    Similarly, Rohit Sharma, who led Mumbai Indians to their fourth IPL title last season, was also seen practising his shots in the nets. The Mumbai cricketer shared a batting video on Instagram where he was seen smashing the net bowlers all around the park. "Up and running with @mumbaiindians," he captioned the post.
    © Instagram/@rohitsharma45
    While Rohit's post garnered all sorts of reactions from fans, it also attracted a special comment from Bollywood actor Ranveer Singh. The 35-year-old star seemed mighty impressed with Rohit's preparations for the IPL as he lauded the Indian opener for his batting genius. "All Hail The Hitman," Ranveer commented.

    For a team that will be defending their title this year, Mumbai Indians will surely hope Rohit gets some rhythm in the nets before the tournament. 
    With MS Dhoni calling time on his international career, all eyes will be on the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) skipper who can also pose a major threat to Mumbai's title aspirations this season. That's exactly why they'd need the 'Hitman' to come out all guns blazing when the tournament begins.

    I think we can agree that remakes are not required, like ever. Especially when you're making a Hindi version of an already hit show. Why can't people just watch the original instead of whatever discount version is being made here?
    The conversation about these poorly made remakes was kind of reignited by the Indian Friends going viral last week, so I thought it would be nice to list out a few more shows that have been copied, or 'inspired', by other shows.
    1. Hello Friends © Twitter
    Inspired by Friends.

    Of course, I have to start with this since Hello Friends is the most offensive out of all of them. It's obviously not surprising that 'sasta' Friends ran for only 26, painful might I add, episodes while the superior version lasted 10 seasons. Just watching it for five minutes will show that.
    Originality level - less than zero, they literally copied every plot point.
    2. Pyaar Kii Ye Ek Kahaani © Star One
    Inspired by Twilight.

    Twilight tried to make Vampires cool, but the glittery monsters were mocked to no end, of course. But, with such a huge impact, be it negative, that the entire series had, it's understandable why Ekta Kapoor went 'I want some of that'.
    But, with so much saas-bahu going on on TV, a desi vampire romance seemed way too out of place, tbh.
    3. Jassi Jaisi Koi Nahi © Sony
    Inspired by the Colombian show Yo soy Betty, la fea, which was also the inspiration for Ugly Betty.

    I'm pretty sure this was the least offensive remake as, if I'm recalling correctly, a lot of people enjoyed the show quite a bit and it was a huge success with Mona Singh getting a lot of praise for her portrayal of the titular character.
    4. Yudh © Sony
    Inspired by Boss.

    I was today years old when I learned that Amitabh Bachchan starred in a miniseries a few years ago. And, I was also today years old when I learned that it was apparently inspired by American drama Boss.
    In Yudh, Big B plays a big businessman who develops an incurable disease, while in Boss, the protagonist, played by Kelsey Grammar, is the Mayor of Chicago, who gets diagnosed with an incurable disease.
    5. Powder © Sony
    Inspired by The Wire.

    Both are crime thrillers, but only one received wide-spread critical acclaim and ran for five seasons. Any guesses? Of course, the answer is The Wire.
    Apparently, Powder was praised for its storytelling and execution, but it never got the viewership it needed. I feel like if it was released today on an OTT platform, it would actually be popular.

    What if we tell you there is one place on this planet that is completely safe from COVID-19? Don’t believe us? Well, it looks like self-styled godman Nithyananda’s own country on an island off Ecuador called “Kailaasa” is one such place. *crying inside* Yes, he has his own country now. 
    It is located on South America's west coast, near Trinidad and Tobago. He had last year fled India to Ecuador via Nepal.
    © Twitter
    Here we have listed out some of the lesser-known interesting facts about this country on an island off Ecuador:

    1. Kailaasa has its website and according to that, the country will revive an ‘enlightened civilisation’ as the only Hindu nation. It claims that the country has been created by dispossessed Hindus from around the world “who lost the right to practice Hinduism authentically in their own countries”.
    © kailaasa
    3. The website also claims it stands for universal free healthcare, free education, free food and revival of a “temple-based lifestyle”.

    The entire traditional education system in India was overhauled overnight amid the coronavirus outbreak. It’s been months since schools and colleges have shifted to the ‘online mode’ of studying and whether we want to believe it or not, things have been less than smooth for most people, pupils and teachers alike.
    From lack of smartphones/laptops to terrible internet services and poor connectivity, even taking virtual classes has turned into a privilege not many can afford. Yet, the will to learn and grow often forces people to go that extra mile and secure their future, even if it means walking for miles and sitting on tree branches to get an education that’s their birth-right.
    © Twitter/ANI
    Well, believe it or not, that is exactly what teacher Laxman Pawar is doing for the sake of his students' education. A resident of Dhadgaon village in Maharashtra, Laxman is forced to give lessons to his students sitting atop a tree or a hilltop due to lack of network connectivity. 

    Speaking about this situation, Deputy Director of Education, Divisional Officer Nashik, Praveen Patil told ANI that the network issues arise from having fewer mobile towers in the area. 
    © Twitter/ANI
    At a time when almost everything, right from work to medical appointments, shopping, entertainment and even ‘eating out’ has moved online, it’s disheartening to witness how poor facilities can hamper the future of several students, not only because of the lack of internet services but also due to unavailability of required gadgets.
    © Twitter/ANI
    Kudos to Laxman and his sincere students who took it upon themselves to ensure that the government's inability to deliver on their promises of development and growth doesn’t hamper their chances of a promising future that good education can bring.

    We men love our hair more than we care to admit. That is the reason, why most of us, are on the lookout for a good hair shampoo that actually suits us, and is best for us.

    However, once we find something that shampoo, that magical potion for our hair that keeps it clean, moisturised and spiffy, we try to stick to it as much as we can. Now, most men assume that good shampoos and good grooming products for men costs a bomb. But does it really?
    © Twitter/TheAaryanKartik
    Well, not quite. We’re not saying that the shampoos that cost a thousand bucks are useless - they are not. However, the idea that you need to spend a ton of money on shampoos to keep your hair healthy, is also blasphemous.

    © iStock
    So, keeping these in mind, we have selected a few shampoos that you can pick from pretty much any e-commerce site, or even a well-stocked general store. We wanted to go for a broad spectrum that would suit most hair and skin types. So we decided to pick offerings that would be completely natural, from a reputed brand and would be free of parabens and sulfates.

    1. Garnier Ultra Blends Mythic Olive ShampooPrice: Rs 135 for 180 ml
    © Garnier
    Garnier knows hair better than most brands. Their Ultra Blends line of shampoos are actually better than their generic stuff. We recommend going for the Mythic Olive Variant.

    Why We Recommend:
    ● Free of Parabens, Sulfates and other harmful chemicals.
    ● Gives your hair a lasting shine.  

    ● Olive extracts are great for your hair and scalp.
    2. Mamaearth Onion Hair Fall Control Shampoo With Onion & Plant KeratinPrice: Rs 349 for 250 ml
    © Mamaearth
    Although this is a little more expensive than Garnier, the premium that you pay is actually worth it. Mamaearth has been doing some really good stuff with their natural grooming products. 

    Why We Recommend:
    ● Onion oil in the shampoo stimulates hair growth.
    ● Keratin nourishes the hair and revitalises it.
    ● Free of ingredients that cause allergic reactions.
    3. Khadi Natural Amla & Bhringraj Hair CleanserPrice: Rs 235 for 210 ml
    © Khadi India
    If you haven’t tried Khadi products, you seriously don’t know what you’re missing out on. Now, be careful about what you pick. Because they are made of all-natural ingredients and even though you can find the best shampoos for men in there, chances are, you may be allergic to some of their ingredients. The Amla & Bhringraj shampoo, though, works for most people.

    Why We Recommend:
    ● Made with indigenous ingredients.
    ● Is enriched with reetha which makes hair lustrous. 
    ● Has a nice smell, and is very refreshing to use.
    ● Amla & bhringraj keep the hair hydrated and nourished..
    4. Himalaya Herbals Protein Shampoo Gentle Daily Care With ChickpeaPrice: Rs 130 for 200 ml
    © Himalaya
    This is one of the very few shampoos that we can confidently recommend for daily usage. It is mild, but cleanses from deep within. It is especially good for people who either have very oily or a very dry scalp. 

    Why We Recommend:
    ● Great for daily use.
    ● Reduces hair fall by strengthening the roots and scalp
    ● Works for all skin types
    ● Rich in proteins, which gives you a healthy-looking hair.
    5. Vaadi Herbals Lavender Shampoo With Rosemary Extract Price: Rs 195 for 350 ml
    © Vaadi Herbals
    In case you have really bad and damages hair, and have a tendency to suffer from bouts of hair fall whenever the season changes, this is the shampoo for you. It has an intense repair system that actually works well for brittle hair.

    Why We Recommend:
    ● Lavender extracts give it a great smell.
    ● Improves hair texture and health.
    ● Rosemary conditions the hair, so skipping on a conditioner is fine.
    ● Great for damaged hair

    People around the globe are desperately waiting for scientists to develop a vaccine and Russia is also eyeing at India for producing the COVID vaccine.

    Recently, Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison announced that he has secured access to a potential Coronavirus vaccine and will also be manufacturing. He also promised that he will offer free doses to citizens of their country.
    © Reuters
    He also said that he has closed a deal with Swedish-British pharmaceutical company AstraZeneca to get the COVID-19 vaccine that is being made at Oxford University.

    He said in an interview, 
    “The Oxford vaccine is one of the most advanced and promising in the world, and under this deal, we have secured early access for every Australian. If this vaccine proves successful we will manufacture and supply vaccines straight away under our own steam and make it free for 25 million Australians." © Reuters
    The Oxford University vaccine is at phase 3 trials and the scientists are expecting fruitful results by the end of the year 2020.

    Morrison also added that he was in touch with many other parties across the world who are aiming at developing vaccines and will be supporting them with their own scientists to curb the novel Coronavirus. Also, this is the very first time Australia has made any such deal.
    © Reuters
    Reports suggest that the Australian government still hasn’t signed a final agreement regarding the cost of the vaccine but has promised his country that he will definitely make the vaccine available for the population of his country.

    However, reports add that the Australian government still hasn't reached a final agreement with AstraZeneca regarding the cost of the vaccine. Also, a local manufacturer has not been decided upon.

    Sachin Tendulkar is a name that one cannot afford to miss when recalling the legends of the game. On the back of his batting genius, the 'Master Blaster' didn't just shatter records at will, but also went on to earn the moniker 'god of cricket'.
    While his success in the gentleman's game did earn him a massive fan-following, it also saw him raking in the moolah, further enabling him to afford the luxuries of life. And, amongst those, Tendulkar's fixation for luxury cars, most notably BMW, has been well known over the years.  
    © Twitter/@bmwindia
    From owning luxury sedans, stylish SUVs to even a few mean sports cars, Tendulkar undeniably boasts of an envious car collection. But, such is the humility of the cricketing great that despite owning some of the most expensive rides, he still misses his first car - a Maruti 800.

    After realising his dream of becoming a professional cricketer, a young Tendulkar bought a Maruti 800 as his first car with his own money - something that explains why he still feels emotionally connected to it. Thus, owing to the sentimental values of the car, Tendulkar is now seeking to reacquire the vehicle and sought help from fans to find its owner.
    © Twitter/@sachin_rt
    Talking on a special episode of Mudit Dani's show In the Sportlight, the batting legend revealed that he doesn't have his first car with him anymore and would like to appeal to those who bought it to get in touch. "My first car was a Maruti 800. Unfortunately, it is not with me right now. I would love to have it back again with me. So, people listening to me, feel free to contact and get in touch," he said.

    While everyone is well aware of Tendulkar's passion for cars, not many know how or when he developed it. "There was a massive open drive-in movie hall near my house where people used to park their cars and watch the movie, sitting in it. So I, along with my brother, used to stand in our balcony for hours to watch those cars," the former Indian cricketer said.
    Well, it's not like Tendulkar needs any more popularity or introduction to being humble. But, the fact he holds such sentimental values towards his first car highlights that no matter how big a man in stature you become, never forget your roots or where you come from. 
    For the sake of our beloved cricketer, let's hope his plea reaches the owner of the Maruti 800 and he gets reunited with his first car.

    When the news of the tragic demise of Sushant Singh Rajput came, no A-Lister from Bollywood came to the forefront to support the need for CBI investigation in the mysterious death of the actor. Today, the Supreme Court has ordered a CBI investigation in Sushant’s death case and the entire world is celebrating this big move, celebs too have started to hail the decision.
    Akshay Kumar took to Twitter to support the CBI investigation and wrote, 
    “SC directs CBI to investigate Sushant Singh Rajput’s death. May the truth always prevail 🏻 #Prayers.”SC directs CBI to investigate Sushant Singh Rajput’s death. May the truth always prevail 🏻 #Prayers
    — Akshay Kumar (@akshaykumar) August 19, 2020It has completely backfired in the case of the actor as people are thrashing him left, right and center. Here are 5 reasons why people are angry at Akshay:

    1. People think Akshay is now stepping up because he wants to be in good books of the audience as his film Sooryavanshi will soon be announced and the trailer of Laxmmi Bomb is too about to be unveiled. People think it’s nothing but a cheap publicity stunt.
    How cheap promotion can you do for SOORYAVANSHI???Coz ur industry does not do anything without profit in it right?

    HIGH TIME U KNOW WHO MADE U!

    Don't worry try hard but no one is going to watch ur films anymore!Better we spend our money in something else! #BoycottBollywoodFilms
    — Gaurica Bhattacharyya (@GauricaB) August 19, 2020Aisa showoff kra k kuch bhi nahi hoga behenchud...

    Jab ki Laxmi bomb release najdik Aaya,Aab tuja tweet karna hein,haa naahh????

    — 🆂🅷🅼🅸🅼 🅺🅷🅽 (@beingsalman479) August 19, 20202. People are blaming him for not speaking up all the while as he kept quiet until CBI came in the picture.
    Good Morning Akshay Kumar, you are the Kumbhakaran of today, you went to bed on 13th June 2020 and woke up today, 19 August 2020.

    How did you manage to sleep for 68 days

    — Jitesh Rochlani (@JRism9) August 19, 20203. They are targeting him for snatching Narayan Murthy’s biopic from Sushant. In an interview with Republic TV,  Sushant’s close friend said, 
    “Last year he had offered the biopic of Narayan Murthy, you can check the news where it was clearly mentioned that the biopic of Narayan Murthy had to go to Sushant Bhai. Narayan Murthy himself had told director Nitesh Tiwari who was the director for ‘Dangal’ and ‘Chhichhore’ also. And suddenly after some time, it went to Akshay Kumar. I think internal sources can check it. Also the ‘Rifleman’ movie, ‘Paani’. There were 7 big blockbuster movies that went from his hand. Who was behind those things?”Akshay Kumar snatched Narayana Murthy's biopic from SSR

    Akshay's name found in SSR's diary & those pages r missing

    4. People want to boycott Akshay Kumar’s movies for using patriotism as a tool to fool the audience.

    — Taniya Arora (@_taniyaarora_) August 19, 2020
    5. People think it’s after Sadak 2’s trailer got backlash that he is tweeting to gain sympathy votes.
    For last two months he was silent bcs he was having secret meetings with Baby Penguin & Commissioner. After seeing the backlash which #Sadak2's trailer faced he wanted to save Laxmmi Bomb! This is just another sympathy gaining stunt from canadian @akshaykumar #CBITakesOver pic.twitter.com/x7jg7k46C8

    It wouldn’t be wrong to say that when Mahendra Singh Dhoni & Suresh Raina announced that they were retiring from international cricket, everyone in India gasped a little. Even the very few people who did not follow the game religiously were saddened by the news. 

    © Twitter/msdhoni
    There is no doubt that Dhoni is the most successful captain we have had, no matter what metric you use to quantify success when it comes to cricket. What people don’t realise, is that he is also one of the most stylish and fashionable captains we have had. 

    © Reuters
    Actually, we have had a long history of captains who set style goals for men across generations. Here are the most stylish captains, Indian cricket has had.

    1. Sourav Ganguly © Facebook/Sourav Ganguly (Dada) Fan Page
    Sourav Ganguly was never OTT like fashionistas of this day and age. That does not mean he wasn’t fashionable or stylish. Just like the man himself, Ganguly’s sense of style was poised, composed, calm, and understated. You wouldn’t find him wearing a gaudy golden watch with diamonds, or a loud, kitschy shirt - instead, most of his public appearances were in very tasteful colours and check printed shirts. He was the embodiment of the Bengali Gentleman.

    2. Rahul Dravid © Facebook/Rahul Dravid Fan Club
    Although Rahul Dravid had that studious, school-topper vibe throughout his career, he was quite the fashion icon in his day and age. The high waisted jeans, with the tucked-in polo T-shirt was lit. Heck, we have strong reasons to believe that if he wanted he could have had a strong career as a model, that’s how stylish Rahul Dravid was. 

    3. Sunil Gavaskar © Reuters
    Whether you’re Camp Sachin or Camp Virat, you can’t deny the fact that Sunil Gavaskar is one of the greatest batsmen in the world to have played the sport. At 71 years of age, he looks younger and sharper than guys in the 40s, so you can imagine just how stylish he must have been in his prime.

    © Reddit/IndianCricketInHistory
    4. Kapil Dev © Reddit/IndianCricketInHistory
    Although most cricketers back in the '70s and '80s kept a moustache, especially on the Indian Cricket Team, Kapil Dev’s stache had a different vibe altogether. His unkempt bushy moustache had a very rustic appeal, and stood distinguished among a sea of finely tuned, and finely shaped moustached. The same thing goes for his hair - a basic grooming routine, or lack thereof, ensured that short, wavy and curly hair was photo-ready throughout the tournament.

    5. Mohammad Azharuddin © Reddit/IndianCricketInHistory
    One thing that the movie Azhar got right, was the fact that Mohammad Azharuddin had a natural flair for style, that raised collar of the T-shirt, and those widely spread collars of a dress shirt - all these may look very blah in 2020, but 30 years ago, they were outrageously bold, and a big stylistic statement. More importantly, these were statements not just in India, but on a global stage.

    6. Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi © Reddit/IndianCricketInHistory
    And finally, we have Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi, the father of Saif Ali Khan. In spite of an accident that left one of his misshaped and permanently damaged, Mansoor saab, was one of the most good looking men playing the sport, back in his day. His father, Iftikhar Ali Khan Pataudi too was a cricketer and an immensely good looking man. Needless to say, charm and good looks, seems to run in the family. 

    © Reddit/IndianCricketInHistory
    However, when we come to Mahi…

    Dhoni is the most stylish captain we have had, its as simple as that. For people thinking, “What about Virat Kohli? He’s also stylish enough,” consider this - Dhoni took risks. 
    © Twitter/MahiFans
    Sometimes they were a disaster, no doubt. However, at times, they were as iconic as the man. As for Kohli, well, he tends to play it safe. Not that there’s anything wrong with that.

    On 15th August, as India was busy celebrating its 74th Independence Day, one of the country's most iconic cricketers MS Dhoni called time on his international career.  
    After year-long speculations owing to his struggles to feature for the Indian team, 'Captain Cool' brought an end to his storied, illustrious career that saw him enthralling fans during his decade-and-a-half spell on the international circuit.
    View this post on InstagramThanks a lot for ur love and support throughout.from 1929 hrs consider me as RetiredA post shared by (@mahi7781)
    Whether it was lightning quick glovework, finishing abilities or his impeccable leadership skills, Dhoni will always be remembered as one of the biggest contributors to Indian cricket. And, the fact that the former Indian captain scored over 17,000 runs, took 634 catches, effected 195 stumpings and clinched multiple trophies across formats, further bolster his claim as one of Indian cricket's greatest players.

    During his envious cricket career, Dhoni also shattered multiple records which, in turn, proved his worth as one of the best in business. But, there remains one record held by our 'Captain Cool' that probably will never be broken. 
    Gautam Gambhir, who batted alongside Dhoni in the all-important 2011 World Cup final during India's march to glory, has also tipped that MSD record as the one not to be broken.

    Gajraj was also recently in the news for his thoughts on the nepotism debate. In an interview with Hindustan Times, he said that when people go to a theatre to watch a movie, it doesn’t matter if the movie has A-list stars or not.

    “Agar aisa hota to Badhaai Ho successful nahi hoti. We all know what happens to films of even big stars. There was so much talk around Thugs of Hindostan (2018), big stars, and much money being spent, but it’s for everyone to see what happened when it was released. People forgot about the film in three days,” said the Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan actor.
    Coming to Gajraj and Neena, they became tinsel town's favourite on-screen parents after Badhaai Ho and Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan. We can’t wait to watch them again.

    Farhan Akhtar has directed some great films like Dil Chahta Hai, Lakshya, and many more over the years. He has proved that he is not only a great director but an even better actor with a fair amount of fan-following. He has donned many roles in his career in the film industry and is known for his performances in many films. 
    We haven’t seen much of him and would want to see more of him as he is an extraordinary actor despite the fact that he has given some flops in the past few years. So, here is a list of Farhan Akhtar movies that prove he should act more often-  
     Bhaag Milkha Bhaag 

    The film was directed by Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra and Farhan Akhtar played the role of Milkha Singh in the film. The movie is a story based on the life of Milkha Singh, an Indian athlete who was a national champion runner. No one could have played the role of Milkha Singh better than Farhan Akhtar, the film was a blockbuster and left us all impressed. 
    Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara
      

    Zoya Akhtar’s ZNMD is a film that we still can watch over and over again. Apart from giving us some major friendship goals, this movie gave us some major life lessons that we can’t forget. Farhan Akhtar played the role of a writer who is in search of the meaning of his life. 
    Rock On

    Farhan Akhtar made his debut with this film and went onto become a super hit and garnered a huge fan following. The whole country was mesmerized by Farhan’s performance in the musical drama. 
    Dil Dhadakne Do

    The film is a comedy-drama released in the year 2015 and Farhan Akhtar plays the role of a journalist who works abroad. The film was directed by Zoya Akhtar and also stars Anil Kapoor, Shefali Shah, Priyanka Chopra, and Ranveer Singh in key roles. 
    The Sky is Pink 

    The movie is based on the life of motivational speaker Aisha Chaudhary, who died in 2015 when she was 18 and was born with immunodeficiency disorder. Farhan Akhtar played the role of Aisha’s dad in the film alongside Priyanka Chopra who played the role of her mother.

    As soon as the anti-China movement began to see some interest in India, there were some rumours about the arrival of Micromax. Well, now, it looks like the brand really wants to make a comeback in the country, as they have teased the arrival of a new phone on their Twitter handle.

    The company is going all-in on the anti-China movement. They're stressing on the 'Aatmanirbhar' initiative that was introduced by our PM Narendra Modi that calls for local manufacturing and boost the 'Make In India' initiative.

    Here, check out the teaser -


    73 years of independence or being in dependence?
    On our 74th Independence Day, let's stop being doosron pe nirbhar and become truly Atmanirbhar.
    Are you ready to join the revolution with us?#AtmaNirbharBharat #JoinTheRevolution #IndependenceDay #स्वतंत्रतादिवस pic.twitter.com/7O5Y8JrbAM

    As you can see, Micromax is clearly hyping up its arrival to make it look like a huge comeback. Well, only time will tell what they have in store for us. As of now, we don't have any confirmation on a launch or any details about the phone that they're planning to launch.

    But if the rumours are something to go by, then it looks like we'll be getting some budget phones from the brand, especially targeting the Rs 10,000 price segment.

    With all that being said, we really hope Micromax is not planning on selling any rebranded Chinese phones. We say that because Micromax has been caught doing that in the past and that's part of the reason why the company stopped doing business in India.

    Right now, Chinese makers like Xiaomi, Realme, etc are still on the top when it comes to the overall smartphone sales in the country. Samsung is also doing great but there aren't a lot of options when it comes to 'Made In India' phones. 
    If Micromax manages to do something big here with their new phones, then we might truly have a winner here on our hands.
