    Ahead of India's tour of New Zealand, while Virat Kohli might have ruled out the possibility of exacting revenge on the Kiwis for their World Cup ouster last year, the exploits of a rampant Indian team on the field in the past week speak otherwise. The touring Indian brigade recorded two consecutive triumphs before notching up a thrilling 'Super Over' win in the 3rd T20I to eventually seal the five-match series.

    With the T20I series done and dusted, the Kiwis will now be focussing on the three ODIs next month to peg India back for the losses in the shortest format. But, it is going to be an uphill battle for the hosts, especially during the injury-forced absence of Trent Boult, Lockie Ferguson and Matt Henry.

    In a bid to fill the void in their pace battery, the Kiwis have included Scott Kuggeleijn, Hamish Bennett and Kyle Jamieson in their ODI squad. Amongst the Kiwi trio, one man stands out, and by quite a margin. While we've seen the likes of Bennett and Kuggeleijn in the T20I series, the Kiwis appear to have decided to unleash Jamieson, their tallest cricketer in history, on India in the three-match ODI series slated to begin from 5th February.

    Move over Two Metre Peter! Meet NZ's *new* tallest cricketer Kyle Jamieson 2.03 metres (6'8) in jandals #FordTrophy pic.twitter.com/eLbZFMWz4U
    â BLACKCAPS (@BLACKCAPS) January 16, 2016

    Standing tall at a staggering six feet and eight inches (2.03 metre), Jamieson is even taller than New Zealand's batting coach Peter Fulton who is popularly known as 'Two-metre Peter' for his height (6'6). So, who's this Jamieson and where has he been hiding all this while? Let's take a look.
    Born in Auckland, bred in Canterbury and now in line to make his senior team debut, Jamieson is a classic fast bowler who makes full use of his tall frame and sheer pace to bounce batsmen out. He was New Zealand's second-highest wicket-taker (7 scalps in 4 games) during the 2014 U-19 World Cup and has been a regular in the 'A' side, playing 13 matches and bagging 15 wickets, over the past few seasons.

    Other than his impressive bowling, Jamieson is also handy with the bat lower down the order. The right-hander has a batting average of over 31 and a strike rate of over 112 in List A cricket. He also has three first-class fifties and a List A half-century to his name. In 2018, he had slammed a brilliant 111-ball 101 to trouble the likes of James Anderson, Stuart Broad and Mark Wood during England's warm-up tie at Seddon Park.

    For someone who looks in Morne Morkel's mould, only taller by three inches, Jamieson's ability to extract extra bounce and ability to swing the ball can trouble the likes of in-form Rohit Sharma, KL Rahul and Virat Kohli. Having lost the T20I series, New Zealand will hope that their 'giant weapon' comes out all guns blazing in the upcoming ODI series to peg India back.

    Sometimes, entertainment comes at a great cost, things get stuck in places where they shouldn't get stuck, but that's showbiz baby.

    A teenager from Ontario, Canada probably learned the hard way that putting random things in your mouth is not as safe as it may seem. (This is not meant to be dirty, please get your head out of the gutter!) 
    Basically, in order to keep her little cousin entertained, Mollie O'Brien decided to try and fit an entire harmonica in her mouth. And, of course, it did not end well, there's literally no other way it would've ended.

    The poor girl had an entire musical instrument stuck inside her mouth. That's hilarious, tbh, but also sounds so painful. My mouth hurts just thinking about it.
    Guess what was the first thing she did? Go to her patents? Go to a doctor? Nope, don't forget she's a teenager. She made a TikTok documenting her adventure.
    Using the 'just did a bad thing' meme format, she shared the thing she regretted doing. The best part? When she breathed, you can actually hear the harmonica playing, that's as bizarre as it can get.
    @mollieobrien going to cheo to get my harmonica removed... #foryou #fyp #foryoupage #dissapointment #failure #mymomdoesntloveme #idiot
    ⬠I just did a bad thing bill wurtz - cameron.tr
    Talking to a Buzzfeed, she said, "Every time I breathed heavily out of panic, it made a noise. After 30 minutes it hurt, but then it was kinda numb." At least, she only suffered for half an hour.

    © TikTok/Mollie O'Brien
    She also had the same reaction after realizing that she couldn't get the harmonica out that all of us have whenever we're stuck in a sticky situation - "****, my mom will kill me now."

    Well, at least her mom wasn't mad, she was just "shocked she raised such a weird kid."

    © TikTok/Mollie O'Brien
    She had to then rush to the hospital, of course, and there, a dentist used a mechanism to hold her mouth open and remove it. The dentist had just one thing to say to her - "He said, 'Let's not do this again, OK dear?'" Fair enough.

    She managed to safely get it out and also went viral on TikTok, so not bad I would say.

    There is no greater love affair than of millennials and their food. We spend hours mindlessly scrolling through food videos, posting dessert photos on Instagram and tagging our friends in food posts because thatâs just who we are â a generation obsessed with food and eating out.

    No Drama Over Paying The BillSplitting the bill is always a task when you are a large group of friends. There is always that one friend who complains about paying a huge chunk of the total share when theyâve hardly eaten anything.

All you need to do is grab the GIRF deals for your favourite restaurant before they get sold out.

And GIRF is yet another excuse to explore these new finds and also save on your bills at the new restaurants around us.

    Brunch Like Thereâs No Tomorrow Sunday brunches are usually an expensive affair. Not only are we never able to finish the lavish spread, but we also end up spending more than we would have for an a la carte meal. Thanks to GIRF, brunch buffets are available at a 50% discount. They are perfect for a nice family outing or a relaxed catch-up session with old friends.

    Ever since the trailer for Saif Ali Khan starrer Jawaani Jaaneman was dropped, fans were more than excited to see Khan in his good old 'playboy avatar', a role he plays the best on the big screen. The movie also stars Tabu and is the debut of Pooja Bedi's daughter Alaya F.

    Like always, this time as well, Saif hasnât disappointed his loyal fans as the movie is soaking in positive reviews right now from both the critics and audience. 
    The movie hit the theatres today and the ones who have seen it already are out with their reviews.
    A majority of the audience is impressed by the cast and are calling the movie an entertaining, hilarious, bold and emotional one, basically a complete entertainer.
    Here are the reactions: 
    #JawaaniJaanemanReview Winning Hearts. A must watch movie #JawaaniJaaneman Cuckoo :)

    Ratings - â­â­â­#JawaaniJaanemanReview @AlayaF___ @jackkybhagnani @vashubhagnani @nitinrkakkar @poojafilms @tipsofficial
    â Maaz (@beingmaaz1524) January 30, 2020Going by the reactions, we can totally recommend you can watch the movie over the weekend with your family.

    The story revolves around a middle-aged man played by Saif, who is popular among the ladies. But his life turns upside down when he finds out he has a teenage daughter, played by Alaya. Tabu plays the role of Saif's former lover who's the mother. 
    Talking about playing a father in the movie, Saif had earlier said, âWell, this guy has no clue he is a father. He lives in London, has a crazy lifestyle and it is kind of a bachelorâs nightmare for him to suddenly find that he is a parent. The film is about accepting your age and responsibilities. Being a parent is such an important role. If not done properly it can really damage the kids and if done right, it can be so rewarding.â
    But before you book your tickets, take a look at the trailer here:
      
    Planning on catching this over the weekend? Let us know in the comments.

    When it comes to watching a horror movie or its trailer, I usually almost completely skip it, but then if Vicky Kaushal is involved, I can somehow muster my courage. Well, the teaser for Vicky's Bhoot Part 1 The Haunted Ship is finally here, and as the title suggests, it's a scary flick.
    The actor took to Instagram to share the teaser which looks promising indeed, although we canât figure out much right now as we are only introduced to Vicky's character and yes, the creepy scenario. But we do get a taste of the horror that's in store for us.
    In the 58-second video, Vicky is seen entering a haunted ship while an eerie sound can be heard saying, "Prithvi where are you? We are losing you."

    The actor then sees several handprints on the walls of the ship which adds to the spookiness of the teaser. He also sees his own portrait covered with blood and he's then attacked by blood-soaked hands who pull him into the wall.

    Vicky captioned the teaser, âDrown yourself...in fear. #Bhoot Trailer out on MONDAY. #BhootTrailer3rdFeb #TheHauntedShip (sic)."

    Goes without saying that fans are finding the teaser super spooky but also can't wait to watch the full trailer on February 3.

    Maniesh Paul is actually quite the hypebeast. Which, given Bollywoodâs obsession with sneakers is not that surprising. 
    On any given day, you will find our B-Towners sporting some really cool classics, most of which are actually pieces that hardcore collectors and sneakerheads would happily shell out an exorbitant amount of rupees to get their hands on.
    © Instagram/manieshpaul
    It was, therefore, quite a surprise when Maniesh Paul showed up wearing one of the most quirky pairs of sneakers ever to have been made, for a recent film screening.
    © Viral Bhayani
    But first, letâs get to his outfit.
    Maniesh is seen here wearing a dope camouflaged hooded t-shirt. Or a rather hooded t-sweatshirt, if that makes any sense. With that, he has paired a quirky pair of jeans, which actually has a very interesting silhouette. 
    © Viral Bhayani
    Thanks to the number of exposed zippers on the front, they have a very technical appeal, and actually look quite zany. However, they certainly donât hold a candle to the quirky sneakers that heâs wearing.
    © Viral Bhayani
    Maniesh is seen here wearing the Nike Air Jordan 1 âFearlessâ sneakers, which, actually is a pair that has had the most visceral reactions to a sneaker, ever. Theyâre often referred to as clown shoes or clown sneakers, thanks to the rather flamboyant colour scheme that they have. 
    © Hypebeast
    The fact that they are made of patent leather, instead of the usual calfskin leather that goes with the Jordan 1s also seems to aggravate people. The end result is a sneaker that has a classically Jordan 1 silhouette, but with a rather bizarre finish. They would have been perfect for Joaquin Phoenix in Joker, thanks to their bizarre and colours and finish.
    © Warner Bros. Pictures
    With that being said, the other colours that are part of the drop have actually been well received, particularly their all-red version of the Fearless, which sold out in minutes once they went up for sale. 
    © Hypebeast
    We quite actually like the red and blue Jordan 1s. Yes, they are a little unusual, but thatâs what makes them interesting. As for the manner in which Maniesh is wearing them, having changed the laces with a pair of blue laces, they are actually kinda cool. They certainly have our approval.

    Way to go Maniesh!

    Arguably one of the most important bowling mainstays for India, Mohammed Shami has had a lot to deal with in the recent past. If the allegations of domestic violence by his wife delayed his central contract, his fitness woes - mainly extra weight - halted his progress at the international level last year. But, Shami, like a true champion, overcame all of it. 
    For someone who was India's leading fast bowler in the 2015 World Cup, Shami found himself out of the Indian ODI side as his recovery from an ankle surgery saw him gaining extra weight. But, rather than allowing his struggles to get the better of him, the 29-year-old used it as a source of motivation to return stronger. And that's exactly what happened.

    Is violence in any relationship an expression of love? Well, Taapsee Pannu is here to tell us and the society that the answer is a big fat NO.  
    Taapseeâs upcoming movie Thappad is the story of a woman who decides to divorce her husband after he slaps her once. Focus here is on 'once'.
    The makers have finally dropped the trailer and itâs a tight slap on the faces of people who think itâs acceptable if a man slaps his wife. Also a pertinent response to preachers of patriarchy.
    The trailer begins with Taapsee in a meeting room with her lawyers who seem to be unable to fathom why she is seeking a divorce from her husband 'just over a single slap', an apparently trivial thing. 

    © T-Series
    Well, it might be trivial for others but the makers of Thappad and Taapsee go on to show how it's not okay, and also how it's not acceptable just because you're 'in love'. Wow. Talk about giving it straight back to Kabir Singh, right?

    The powerful trailer also gives us a sneak-peek into the married couple's happier times when all was well between them and they were living in apparent harmony. Taapsee is the perfect wife, taking care of her husband and their home until he loses his temper at a party and slaps her right in front of everyone.

    © T-Series
    This, eventually, opens her eyes to the unfair things in their relationship that she had been turning a blind eye to and simply sweeping under the rug.

    The trailer also raises valid questions of how important a womanâs self-respect is and Taapsee has done a brilliant job in portraying her character, whoâs not ready to give in to age-old practices of giving in to the âadjust karna padta haiâ culture. '

    Uss ek thappad se mujhe sab unfair cheeze dikhne lag gayi jisko main andheka karke move on kar rahi thiâ - This dialogue by Taapsee seals the deal.

    Hereâs the trailer: 

      
     After watching the trailer, a barrage of emotions rushed through me, mostly anger, and I got goosebumps. Pretty sure I was not alone in feeling like that.
    Meanwhile, people are flooding social media with praises for Taapsee and director Anubhav Sinha for choosing to raise their voice on such a debatable subject also agree that âeven a slap is not acceptableâ. 
    Some people were even of the view that itâs a slap on the makers of Shahid Kapoorâs Kabir Singh.

    Here are the reactions: 

    "Thodi bahot maar-peet toh expression of love hi hai na" a slap on Kabir Singh and those who think it is OKAY for a husband to slap his wife. #ThappadTrailer @taapsee you are amazing & proud of you. Thank you @anubhavsinha for highlighting such an important issue.

    â Gaurav Kadam â®ï¸ (@gauraavkadam) January 31, 2020In an earlier interview, Taapsee had said, âWorking with Anubhav sir is always an enriching experience and he encourages one to push the envelope. When he discussed Thappad, I immediately decided this was a film I had to do. It has a thought-provoking storyline and deals with a subject that must be addressed in our society. To put it in perspective, looking at what we aim to convey with our film, I can say Thappad is this yearâs Pink.â

    The cast of Thappad also includes Ratna Pathak Shah, Manav Kaul, Dia Mirza, Tanvi Azmi, and Ram Kapoor. 
    Thappad, produced by Anubhav Sinha and Bhushan Kumar, and is scheduled to hit the screens on February 28.

    Owing to its popularity across at the globe, cricket as a sport has a tendency of catapulting the cricketers into the limelight overnight. But, the players aren't the only ones who enjoy the spotlight. Over the years, commentators have proved to be an integral part of cricket with their analysis and insight of the game.

    We've seen the likes of Geoffrey Boycott and Tony Greig becoming household names for their knowledge of the game and dry humour that made cricket matches much more than just a contest on the field. But, just like the cricketers, commentators, too, can have a rough outing and eventually fall from grace - something that Sanjay Manjrekar continues to witness time and again.
    © Twitter/@BCCI
    Over the years, the former Indian cricketer has had his fair share of run-ins with cricket fans owing to his comments. If his remarks on Ravindra Jadeja left the Indian cricketer and fans fuming, Manjrekar's recent spat with Harsha Bhogle during the live coverage of a match once again placed a target on his back.

    Such has been his knack for getting into trouble with fans that no matter what Manjrekar says, he just can't catch a break. After the Indian cricket team's thrilling win over New Zealand in the 3rd T20I, the Indian commentator was assessing Jasprit Bumrah's performance after he conceded 17 runs in the all-important 'Super Over' at Seddon Park in Hamilton.

    Watched that super over from Bumrah. He is such a fabulous bowler but he could use the crease a little more to create different delivery angles. #INDvsNZ
    â Sanjay Manjrekar (@sanjaymanjrekar) January 30, 2020

    For a bowler who is often labelled as one of the best bowlers in the death overs, Bumrah struggled to maintain length and was clobbered for a six and two fours by the New Zealand batsmen. Highlighting his struggles at the critical stage in the 3rd T20I, Manjrekar tweeted: "Watched that super over from Bumrah. He is such a fabulous bowler but he could use the crease a little more to create different delivery angles".

    While Manjrekar was probably looking to help Bumrah prepare better for future challenges, the Indian cricket fans just couldn't fathom the Indian commentator giving advice to the world's no. 1 ODI bowler.

    Stop it, you were an average player..
    â karthik (@sillykarthik) January 30, 2020Heard Sanjay's commentary. He is such a fabulous commentator, but he could use the mute button on his microphone to create different (better) experience
    â Jay (@mehta_jay27) January 30, 2020You giving tips to Bumrah?????????? So you are the one who gave some tips to him before last match??
