Ever since the massive box office success of The Kashmir Files, there are a lot of people who have asked its director Vivek Agnihotri if he plans on sharing the huge profits earned from the film with the victims i.e the Kashmiri Pandits. A few days back an IAS officer from Bhopal had requested The Kashmir Files makers to donate the earnings from the film for the welfare of affected Kashmiri Pandits. Vivek had then avoided the question and responded that he’d like to meet him in person “so we can meet and exchange ideas on how we can help and how you can help with the royalty of your books and your power as an IAS officer.” © Zee Studios The filmmaker has once again done something similar. However, this time, he not only dodged the question but also claimed that the film is yet to make money. At a recent press conference in Lucknow, when asked if he will be sharing a part of his earnings from The Kashmir Files with the victims, Vivek replied, “Kamaai hogi tab baat karenge abhi kamaai ki stithi toh hai. (We’ll talk once the money makes money. Currently, it seems like the film will earn some money.)” The journalist then retorted, “Kamaai toh bahut ho rahi hai…(The movie is making a lot of money.)” Vivek interrupted him by saying, “Aapko aisa lag raha hai woh galatfahmi hai aapki. (You are mistaken. It is not true.)” Take a look at the video clip from the press conference below: हालांकि मैं बिल्कुल नहीं चाहता कि डायरेक्टर साब की कमाई उनसे लेकर कश्मीरी पंडितों को दी जाए। पर इस सवाल का जैसा जवाब उन्होंने दिया है वो उनकी और उनके इरादों की पोल खोलता है।pic.twitter.com/Je5HfJTC7D — MANJUL (@MANJULtoons) March 22, 2022 While Vivek Agnihotri claims the film is yet to make money, The Kashmir Files has collected an unprecedented Rs 190.10 crore in just 12 days of its release. #TheKashmirFiles continues to stand tall, runs triumphantly on weekdays...

US attorney general dodges Trump questions, angering Democrats
waqas dar posted a blog entry in Geo News Blog
US Attorney General Jeff Sessions testifies before a Senate Intelligence Committee hearing on Capitol Hill in Washington, U.S., June 13, 2017. Photo: Reuters Attorney General Jeff Sessions on Tuesday denounced as a "detestable lie" the idea he colluded with Russians meddling in the 2016 election, and he clashed with Democratic lawmakers over his refusal to detail his conversations with President Donald Trump. Sessions, a senior member of Trump's Cabinet and an advisor to his election campaign last year, had a series of tense exchanges with Democrats on the Senate Intelligence Committee during about 2-1/2 hours of testimony as they pressed him to recount discussions with the Republican president. "You raised your right hand here today and said you would solemnly swear to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth," Democratic Senator Martin Heinrich said. "Now you're not answering questions. You're impeding this investigation." Sessions refused to say whether he and Trump discussed FBI Director James Comey's handling of an investigation into possible collusion between Trump's campaign and Russia during the election campaign before the president fired Comey on May 9. He also declined to say if Trump opposed Sessions' decision to recuse himself from the Russia probe in March, and whether Justice Department officials discussed possible presidential pardons of individuals being looked at in the probe. Democratic Senator Ron Wyden told Sessions: "I believe the American people have had it with stonewalling. Americans don't want to hear that answers to relevant questions are privileged." "I am not stonewalling," Sessions replied, saying he was simply following Justice Department policy not to discuss confidential communications with the president. Sessions' testimony did not provide any damaging new information on Trump campaign ties with Russia or on Comey's dismissal, but his refusal to discuss conversations with Trump raised fresh questions about whether the White House has something to hide. Adam Schiff, the top Democrat on the House of Representatives' Intelligence Committee, which is conducting a parallel Russia probe, said on Twitter that Congress "must compel responses using whatever process necessary." Last week, Comey told the Senate committee that Trump had fired him to undermine the FBI's investigation of the Russia matter. Trump's decision to fire Comey, a move recommended by Sessions despite having already recused himself from the Russia probe, prompted critics to charge that the president was trying to interfere with a criminal investigation. Senator Angus King, an independent, questioned Sessions' legal basis for refusing to answer questions after Sessions said Trump had not invoked executive privilege regarding the conversations. Executive privilege can be claimed by a president or senior government officials to withhold information from Congress or the courts to protect the executive branch decision-making process. Sessions said it would be "inappropriate" for him to reveal private conversations with Trump when the president "has not had a full opportunity to review the questions and to make a decision on whether or not to approve such an answer." Legal experts said there was some merit to Sessions' argument. Andrew Wright, a professor at Savannah Law School and associate counsel under former President Barack Obama, said it was not unusual for government employees to refuse to discuss conversations with the president in order to preserve the right to invoke executive privilege later. Appalling Sessions' clash with the Democratic senators was the latest chapter in a saga that has dogged Trump in his first five months as president and distracted from his domestic policy agenda including major healthcare and tax cut initiatives. "The suggestion that I participated in any collusion or that I was aware of any collusion with the Russian government to hurt this country, which I have served with honour for over 35 years, or to undermine the integrity of our democratic process, is an appalling and detestable lie," Sessions said. "I have never met with or had any conversation with any Russians or any foreign officials concerning any type of interference with any campaign or election in the United States. Further, I have no knowledge of any such conversations by anyone connected with the Trump campaign." US intelligence agencies concluded in a report released in January that Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered an effort to interfere in the election to help Trump in part by hacking and releasing damaging emails about Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton. Russia has denied any such interference, and Trump has denied any collusion by his campaign with Moscow. Sessions recused himself from the Russia investigation in March after revelations that he had failed to disclose two meetings last year with Russia's ambassador to Washington, Sergei Kislyak. In his testimony on Tuesday, Sessions addressed media reports that he may have had a third previously undisclosed meeting with Kislyak at Washington's Mayflower Hotel last year. Sessions said he did not have any private meetings and could not recall any conversations with any Russian officials at the hotel but did not rule out that a "brief interaction" with Kislyak may have occurred there. A former Republican senator, Sessions was an early supporter of Trump's presidential campaign, but sources say there has been tension between the two men in recent weeks because Trump was annoyed that Sessions recused himself from the Russia probe. Sessions said on Tuesday he did not recuse himself because he felt he was a subject of the investigation himself but rather because he felt he was required to by Justice Department rules. -
I remember as a kid, whenever I needed something, be it ice-creams, chocolates or soft toys, I had to work (read beg!) really hard to convince them and make them give in to my demands. But today, it seems that you don’t need to ask anything from your parents anymore. If you want something, simply log in to your Twitter account, connect with the concerned person and ask them directly. Well, now we don’t know how many people succeed in getting a response from the other end, but for Nevada’s Carter Wilkerson, this strategy for his ticket to fame and free chicken nuggets for a year. HELP ME PLEASE. A MAN NEEDS HIS NUGGS pic.twitter.com/4SrfHmEMo3 — Carter Wilkerson (@carterjwm) April 6, 2017 Earlier, our moms would send us to the supermarket to buy groceries, but looking at the scenario, I won’t be surprised if tomorrow Twitter assists us with this job too. Carter tweeted to Wendy’s asking ‘how many retweets for a year of free chicken nuggets?’ and to his surprise Wendy’s replied saying ’18 million’. From there, it started a massive war of tweets which does not seem to end anytime soon. Carter’s tweet became the most retweeted tweet of all-time and he will also get the free nuggets from Wendy’s! .@carterjwm is now the most retweeted tweet of all-time. That’s good for the nuggets, and $100k to @DTFA. Consider it done. #nuggsforcarter pic.twitter.com/k6uhsJiP4E — Wendy's (@Wendys) May 9, 2017 Following Carter’s footsteps, recently, an Indian guy Ankit Jain tried this trick and asked for a year’s supply of Bira white Beer. One needs to appreciate the Indian mind here. While, others were settling for chicken nuggets, this guy had his priorities sorted. Hey @bira91beer how many RTs for year supply for bira white. pic.twitter.com/FzTHMzMQAD — Ankit Jain (@indiantweeter) May 14, 2017 Also, now that liquor shops near highways are shut, this looks like a killer trick to put Twitter to good use to quench his thirst. To his surprise, Bira replied and thankfully the number wasn’t in millions. Bira settled for 91k retweets. @indiantweeter Lets get to 91k 😄 we will start with the first 🍺 — Bira 91 (@bira91beer) May 14, 2017 Ever since Bira replied, netizens have come together to help this chap get a year’s supply of beer. In fact, Bira, too, is actively supporting this guy. Support @indiantweeter in reaching 91k retweets ✋️🍺 we are doing our bit! https://t.co/2ZtilE130u — Bira 91 (@bira91beer) May 14, 2017 So folks this guy’s beer supply now depends on you. Are you going to retweet him? However, this entire turn of events has made us wonder if Sundar Pichai will help us if we ask him “How many retweets to get a job at Google for lifetime?” Or if we ask Bill Gates “How many retweets to get a million dollars?”
