    India is in the middle of witnessing the entire nation fight against a deadly virus that is rapidly claiming innocent lives across the globe. With more than 15 lakh active coronavirus cases all over the world, and as many as 210 countries fighting the COVID-19 outbreak, doctors everywhere are fighting a tough battle day and night to save lives.

    While doctors, nurses and medical staff continue to risk their lives on the frontlines in service of the nation and people, many others capable of lending a helping hand have stepped forward to offer their service and expertise. Just like these 5 popular public figures who have set aside their mainstream careers in order to help doctors and people defeat the life-threatening infection.

    Ashish began his acting journey back in 2015 with a ZEE TV primetime soap opera Kumkum Bhagya and later went on to star alongside Akshay Kumar in Gabbar Is Back. But before setting out on this journey, Ashish was a full-time doctor practising at a private hospital in Juhu. Whatâs more, even until mid-march, Dr Ashish was shooting in the morning and working as a doctor at night. Even now, he is out there on the frontlines fighting the coronavirus outbreak in Mumbai 24x7.

    We all know who this kind man is. The Irish Prime Minister is a certified doctor who quit his practise to join politics. Now amid the coronavirus outbreak, PM Varadkar will be serving as a registered doctor during one shift per week. A Trinity College Dublin graduate from its School of Medicine, PM Varadkar had given up his practise in 2013 before joining politics.

    Shikha is an actress by passion and a nurse by vocation. The 25-year-old has acted in regional cinema, but holds a nursing degree from Vardhman Mahavir Medical College and Safdarjung Hospital in Delhi. However, currently Shikha is stationed at Balasaheb Thackeray Trauma Hospital in Mumbai as a nursing officer. Given the quickly worsening COVID-19 situation in Maharashtra, Shikha decided to help doctors and serve people in need.

    Ranjit, or Ranj Singh as he is more popularly known, is a British TV presenter and author. But above all, he is a certified doctor with a specialisation in Paediatric Emergency Medicine.

    The world knows her as âMiss England 2019â, but this 24-year-old just proved that she will always be a doctor first. Mukherjee, a University of Nottingham medical graduate with specialisation in respiratory medicine, was in India doing humanitarian work when reports of worsening COVID-19 situation in the UK made her fly back home. She set aside the crown and donned the scrubs and PPEs to help fellow doctors at Pilgrim Hospital fight the deadly infection and save lives.

    The lockdown has forced the whole nation to be inside their houses. Even Bollywood celebrities are staying indoors as required. As businesses are being affected, the production and releases of many movies have come to a halt. However, staying indoors doesnât mean that they wonât plan their work schedule for the future. Yes, our favorite âbhaijaanâ Salman Khan is currently reading scripts and he has already signed a few films that we will see on-screen post the Coronavirus chaos. Here is a list of Salman Khan films that we will see on the big screen after things are back to normal. 
    1.  Radhe- Your Most Wanted Bhai View this post on InstagramChulbul Pandey coming to you on 20th Dec in hindi, kannada, tamil and telugu! #Dabangg3 @arbaazkhanofficial @aslisona @saieemmanjrekar @prabhudheva @kichchasudeepa @nikhildwivedi25 @skfilmsofficial @saffron_bm @kjr_studios @sureshproductions #GlobalCinemasLLP #AdityaChowkseyA post shared by (@beingsalmankhan)
    Salman Khan was already shooting the film before the lockdown started.  
    The Prabhudheva directorial is a cop film and was supposed to release on Eid this year. However, looking at the current situation the release dates of the film will change.  
    Cop and Gangster Drama

Salman Khan will be playing a cop and thatâs nothing new but this time he will be playing a Sikh cop. In the film, Aayush is will play the role of a gangster on the run and the will is set to release early in the year 2021. 
    2. Kabhi Eid Kabhi Diwali  View this post on InstagramNamashkaar ... hamari sabhyata mein namaste aur salaam hai! Jab #coronavirus Khatam ho jaye tab Haath milao aur gale lago.... @beingstrongindiaA post shared by (@beingsalmankhan)
    Yes, Salman Khan has already planned for a film to release on Eid 2021.  
    In this family drama film, Sallu Bhai will be seen romancing Pooja Hegde. Pooja will be seen playing a small-town girl who is exactly the opposite of Salman Khanâs character in the film and how they go on to fall in love with each other.

    Just after Kabhi Eid Kabhi Diwali, Salman Khan will start filming Kick 2 which will be released on Christmas 2021. The Kick franchise is going to go forward and the first draft of the film has already been drafted. The film is going to be directed by Sajid Nadiadwala. 

    4. Tiger Sequel © Yash Raj Films
    The Tiger franchise has mostly received a mixed review from the audience but has always been a box office hit. Yet again after Tiger Zinda Hai, there is definitely going to be another one. Reportedly, Salman Khan will shoot for the âTigerâ sequel before he starts shooting for Kabhi Eid Kabhi Diwali.

    Sooraj Barjatya recently told PTI in an interview, âI am writing it. In a year or two, I will be done. I have discussed the idea with Salman and he has liked it. It is in my space -- family, drama and emotions.â

    The duo has given some really big hits together and the re-union is making the fans even more excited for the film. 
    Well, hopefully the pandemic will be controlled and one day soon enough weâll get back to life. When that happens, weâll watch movies and stream shows like we always did and âbhaiâ  will continue entertaining us because â Tiger zinda haiâ  after all!

    Amitabh Bachchan has always been active on social media and interestingly, he is now also interacting with his fans. Well, owing to the lockdown, celebs do have the time to chill and interact with the fans more often than they used to, thanks to their hectic schedules. So, one of the fans asked him âSir aap kabhi desh ka pm banna chate te?" To which Big B had a funny response as he replied, "arre yaar subah subah shubh shubh bolo" along with a laughing emoji. But, I am wondering how things would be if Big B ever becomes a Prime Minister.

    After his response, many of his Instagram followers went on to comment that they will support him if he ever becomes the Prime Minister and also added that he is the only one who can replace PM Narendra Modi.

    Big B has won hearts after he made people nostalgic by sharing a throwback picture from the premiere of his film Sholay. This picture features along with his parents Teji Bachchan and Harivansh Rai Bachchan. The picture also features Big B's wife and Bollywood veteran Jaya Bachchan, who played Big B's love interest in the film. Big B, in his caption, revealed that the picture was clicked in 1975 and also shared that he, along with Vinod Khanna, sat on the floor of the balcony and watched the film till 3 am. Well, itâs like there are too many legends in one frame.
    View this post on InstagramAt the Premiere of SHOLAY .. 15th August 1975, at the Minerva .. Ma, Babuji, Jaya and a bow tied moi .. how pretty Jaya looks .. This was the 35 mm print at the Premiere .. the 70mm Stereo sound print , first time in India was stuck in Customs.. but after the Premiere got over by midnight, we got news that the 70mm print was out of Customs .. we told Ramesh ji to get it to the Minerva .. it came .. the first Indian film on 70mm Stereo .. and I sat on the floor of the Balcony with Vinod Khanna and finished seeing this amazing result till 3 in the morning ð¥A post shared by (@amitabhbachchan)
    Fans also resonated with Big Bâs emotions and said that Sholay is one of the cult movies and they even would want to see a film based on the making of Sholay.

    The movie set a trend of bromance, and changed the definition of a quintessential villain and also showed live-action in Bollywood. It was way ahead of its time in many ways and continues to be a top favourite for Big B fans.

    It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that every actor part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe is perfectly cast. The cast is what makes every movie so great and has actually made what Marvel is right now.
    Imagine someone else playing the character of Iron Man or Captain America other than Robert Downey Jr and Chris Evans. I really can't imagine, can't even picture anyone else. Now, that's how you know you've made damn good casting decisions.
    But, it would've ever so easily gone a different direction if anyone else other than Robert Downey Jr, Chris Evans, Scarlett Johannson, Chris Hemsworth, and Jeremy Renner were playing the superheroes.
    Here are the actors who are probably enjoying the Marvel fame in an alternate universe.
    1. Tom Cruise - Tony Stark  © Twitter/Marvel
    I really can't wrap my mind around the fact that Tom Cruise was almost Iron Man. I mean, it would've been interesting but Robert Downey Jr is literally Tony Stark for real so no other actor would've been able to match up to it.

    2. John Krasinki - Steve Rogers © Twitter/Marvel
    Yes, he's great, we all love him but I'm kind of glad he didn't end up as Steve Rogers. No offence, but no one can do a better job than the best Chris in Hollywood.

    3. Emily Blunt - Natasha Romanoff  © Twitter/Marvel
    If anyone can pull off the sexy yet deadly vibe that Natasha Romanoff gives off other than Scarlet Johannson is definitely Emily Blunt. She would've, for sure, killed it as Black Widow, tbh.

    4. Liam Hemsworth - Thor © Twitter/Marvel
    Playing the God of Thunder is a career-defining role and imagine losing it to your brother out of all the people. That's like being happy and sad at the same time and I really feel bad for Liam, but I don't think the youngest Hemsworth brother could've pulled it off like Chris did.

    5. Jensen Ackles - Clint Barton © Twitter/Marvel
    Instead of hunting ghosts and demons, Dean Winchester would've just been fighting aliens if he became a part of MCU. I can't tell if it's an upgrade or a downgrade. But, Jensen Ackles did audition for the roles of both Captain America as well as Hawkeye.

    6. Tom Hiddleston - Thor  © Twitter/Marvel
    I'm actually so glad that he didn't end up getting the part of Thor since no one can play Loki like he did. He is the freaking God of Mischief and Tom fits the part to a T.

    7. Sebastian Stan - Steve Rogers © Twitter/Marvel
    Another actor who didn't get the main role but ended up playing everyone's favourite character in the series. He should start a club with Tom Hiddleston. Sebastian could've been Captain America but honestly, he's more of a Bucky.

    Bonus Points!
    8. Joseph Gordon-Levitt - Ant-Man © Twitter/Marvel
    Wow man, DC and Marvel? That's bold and it would've been great if it happened but come on, no one can match up to the charm Paul Rudd brings to the character of Ant-Man, not even someone great like Joseph Gordon Levitt.

    9. Joaquin Phoenix - Doctor Strange  © Twitter/Marvel
    Just imagine how different everything would have been if Joaquin Phoenix has become a part of MCU as Doctor Strange. We probably wouldn't have gotten a chance to see his exceptional performance as Joker and I really don't want to live in a world like that.

    Do you believe in ghosts? Do you feel that there is something in between life and death where a few spirits get stuck forever and continue to make contact with the living in one way or another? Do you believe that âsomeoneâ might be staring at you from that dark corner of your room at night while you are asleep?
    Well, probably not.
    However, the athletes mentioned below in the list may have had some very peculiar experiences which might make them think otherwise. Here are four ghost stories shared by cricketers: 
    Sourav Ganguly © Reuters
    In a book named Beefyâs Cricket Tales written by Ian Botham, Sourav Ganugly talks about the paranormal experience he had back in 2002 when India were on a tour of England.

    âWe were up in Durham for a match at Chestler-le-Street and were being looked after at Lumley Castle, a beautiful hotel that overlooks the ground. As a captain, I was taken up to my suite and I must say it was a magnificent room with everything you could want. We finished training for the day, with the match due to be played the following morning, and I went back to my room before heading out for dinner. When I returned, I closed the curtains and switched off all the lights and climbed into bed,â Ganguly writes. 
    However, the skipper woke up in the middle of the night to the voice of tap water running in his bathroom. 
    âI got up, switched on the lights and went to turn off the water. The taps were already off. I thought I must have dreamt it or heard it from another room. I went back to bed, making sure everything was turned off and the place was quiet, then fell back asleep.â About 30 minutes later, he heard the same sound and woke up again.
    But when the same thing happened for the third time, Ganguly sprang off his bed and ran to his teammate Robin Singhâs room and slept on the floor without telling anyone about this experience back then.
    Ganguly has never stayed at the Lumley Castle ever since.
    Stuart Broad © Reuters
    In 2014, when England were hosting Sri Lanka for a Test match, pacer Stuart Broad confessed of experiencing âsomething weirdâ in his room in the central-London based five-star rated Langham Hotel. In an interview with Daily Mail, Broad said:

    âIt was so hot in the room I just couldnât sleep. All of a sudden the taps in the bathroom came on for no reason. I turned the lights on and the taps turned themselves off. Then when I turned the lights off again the taps came on. It was very weird.
    âIt really freaked me out. I ended up asking to move rooms. Bealey (Broadâs girlfriend) was pretty spooked, too, and I know Moeen Aliâs other half wonât stay there because sheâs so frightened of the ghosts.
    âBen Stokes has had some problems sleeping as well. Heâs on the third floor, which is where a lot of the issues are. Iâm telling you, something weird is going on."
    Haris Sohail © Reuters
    In the beginning of 2015, Pakistan were touring New Zealand when batsman Haris Sohail was found traumatised and feverish in his bedroom after âa supernatural presence shook his bedâ in Christchurchâs Rydges Latimer hotel.

    According to a report by The Guardian, Sohail had called one of the coaching staff members after being shaken in his sleep and decided to sleep in his coachâs room that night.
    He was so traumatized by the incident that he even missed a one-day warm-up match against a New Zealand Presidentâs XI.
    Shane Watson © Reuters
    In arguably the most famous story of them all, Australian all-rounder Shane Watson amongst many of his teammates felt a bit of uneasiness during their stay at the Lumley Castle (yes, the same hotel where Ganguly heard the open taps) in 2005. Reportedly, Watson decided to get out of his room and sleep on Brett Leeâs floor. 

    The then media manager of the Australian cricket team, Belinda Dennett even told The Sun what she thought sheâd seen that night: 
    "I saw ghosts. I swear I'm telling the truth," she said. "Several of the players were uneasy although a lot of them in the morning said they were fine ... but maybe they were just trying to be brave."
    "I closed the blind in my room before I went to bed. But when I was woken at 4am by my phone, the blind was up again. I looked out of the window and saw a procession of white people walking past. It was amazing, very scary."
    "Then I returned to bed and the blind went up again - and there was someone looking in through the window. I know I wasn't dreaming because I wrote down the message from my phone and the time. Certainly, when I started to tell my story, a lot of them didn't want to know the details."
