Neha Kakkar just dropped a bomb with the revamp of Aankh Marey used in the movie 'Simmba' and we can't help but listen to that peppy number on loop. Can you blame us? Kakkar's voice is absolutely phenomenal and we are already choreographing dance moves in our head. And if you're a big Kakkar fan who is now left wanting for more of her powerful voice, here's the big news that'll make your week and your playlist a little more interesting. Kakkar has released her first ever song for a web series and surprise, surprise it is for Mirzapur - the Amazon Prime Original series that has been the talk of the town since November 16. What makes this awesome? The 'Mirzapur' anthem - Bhaiyaji Ka Raaj - is gritty, outrageous and every other synonym that defines bold, all hail Kakkar! Her voice is fierce and by the way, the lyrics by Pankaj Krishna are extremely savage, but who's complaining? The song effortlessly integrates the storyline of 'Mirzapur' - the domination of Kaleen Bhaiya (played by Pankaj Tripathi), the violence, the gang war and much more. Apart from this, what a brilliant job by composer Sandeep Chowta! The song, you'll realise, has so many layers - the brass drops, the nuclea-esque tone, the rhythmicality and the tempo. In short, the 'Mirzapur' Anthem is going to get stuck in your head for a very, very long time. So here's the deal. If you're a Kakkar and a 'Mirzapur' fan, Amazon Prime Video has dropped the anthem of the hour and you need to listen to it right now. -

The Top 3 Flagbearers Of Maximalism In Men's Fashion In India Right Now
ADMIN posted a blog entry in FDF Online News
Maximalism in fashion, right now, is what minimalism was 5 years ago. Just like the appeal of understated, muted subtlety captured the collective fancy of the fraternity half a decade back, today, everything seems to be about the rush associated with explosive detonations in terms of colours, patterns, and silhouettes. From neons to neoprenes, rebellious colours and materials are taking over mainstream wardrobes, and a new wave of extreme aesthetic is washing over everything that does not set itself apart, conspicuously so. Where does maximalism find its anchor, though? We set out to find this answer, and didn't have to venture too far. We found the flagbearers of maximalism right in and around Bollywood. Though it has spread far and wide, there are 3 names, who by themselves, are institutionalising the various nuances of maximalism as facets of mainstream fashion. 1. Ranveer Singh © Instagram/ranveersingh When it comes to the unusual, the gutsy, the blingy, the wild, to the outright bizarre in terms of men's fashion in India, who can possibly be a better icon than the man of the moment himself? From wearing ghagras to his own wedding to giving the bride a run for her money by wearing outfits that are just as intricate and statement-y, Ranveer is the epitome of unapologetically being true to the spirit of maximalism. © Instagram/ranveersingh © Instagram/ranveersingh His style statement is unique, not just because it stands apart in its own right, but also because it blends with his personality as effortlessly as Deepika's highlighter does with her cheekbones. Whatever he wears, he makes sure that he pulls it off without breaking a sweat - something most Bollywood biggies struggle with. © Instagram/ranveersingh © Instagram/ranveersingh 2. Karan Johar © Instagram/karanjohar KJo and drama always go hand in hand, and we're not just talking about his movies. When it comes to his dressing sense, it holds true to the T, and the candour with which he handles it makes it unique. Be it his multicoloured, bejewelled jackets and shirts to his limited edition Guccis and Balenciagas, Karan's wardrobe can be a case study in itself for a budding stylist who wants to specialize in maximalism. © Instagram/karanjohar © Instagram/karanjohar Anyone who follows him on Instagram is familiar with his hilarious 'Toodles' video series from IGT. What Kirron Kher candidly tells him about his clothes are something most Indians connect with in its rawest form, but the hilarity with which Karan counters those jabs is a testament to how he actually low key doesn't care about what the world thinks of his fashion sense - something that is an honest reflection of his confident personality as well. © Instagram/karanjohar © Instagram/karanjohar 3. Diljit Dosanjh © Instagram/diljitdosanjh When Diljit Dosanjh started off his career, perhaps no one ever thought that this quintessential 'Desi Munda' will one day become the face of everything hypebeast in the country. What is endearing about Diljit's fashion journey is that he wallows in the same wonder and sense of excitement about his sneakers and jackets while wearing them as his fans do. © Instagram/diljitdosanjh © Instagram/diljitdosanjh Whoever thought that the racy urban appeal of Balenciaga and Versace can never co-exist with the rustic charm of a talented young man from India who belts out Punjabi melodies while shaking a leg with Bhangra beats, needs to witness Diljit Dosanjh in his element. Isn't that what fashion is all about in the end, something that blurs boundaries and brings cultures together? Diljit Dosanjh © Instagram/diljitdosanjh Maximalism, we feel, is here to stay, not just because it is a conversation starter, but also because it reiterates the concept that men's fashion doesn't have to be necessarily muted, subtle, and understated - something that goes hand in hand with the evolving definition of healthy masculinity. -

ADMIN posted a blog entry in FDF Online News
You never feel your best when you are at the receiving end of a theft. Obviously. It gets especially worse when you are a student, always running low on money and even energy on most days for that matter, besides a lot of other stuff. This universal condition that is commonly shared by most students around the world, took an even uglier turn when a university student's laptop was stolen in UK. The incident was shared by the guy's flatmate on Twitter, who revealed that the stealing the laptop wasn't the last thing the thief did. In his Twitter post, Stevie Valentine shared how after his flatmate's laptop was stolen, the thief reached out to him and apologised for the theft in an earnest email, and even suggesting helping the guy out with his important university files. So my flat mates laptop got stolen today, please pree what the thief sent him ððððpic.twitter.com/pDhhpmncPz — Stevie Valentine (@StevieBlessed) November 28, 2018 The tweet has since gone viral and obviously the netizens had a field day between sympathizing with the thief and feelings sorry for the bloke. But regardless of it all, that has given us a good laugh and here's a piece of it for you too. If he's really sorry he'll write the next essay. — Theo (@Heli0s) November 28, 2018 “If there are any files such as university work, that you need let me know”.

'Gatsbying', The New Dating Trend, Is The Best Possible Way To Impress Your Crush Right Now
ADMIN posted a blog entry in FDF Online News
New found love will come and go but dating trends are surely here to stay. Every day I scan through relationship articles online, I find a brand new trend doing the rounds for the millennial. It's almost like without these trends, romance would just be a dull passé. So, anyway I recently came across this fascinating dating trend and I could really relate to this one because, let's face it, we've all done it once in our lives and reaped the benefits from it. Or not! The trend is called Gatsbying and yes, the relevance is derived from The Great Gatsby. Gatsbying is when you have a crush on someone and you want their attention upon you, you resort to social media, primarily Instagram, Snapchat or Facebook and put stories from your life, which may get you attention from your respective crush for them to notice you, so you can make a fair amount of an impression upon them! Yup, it's a very new-age trend and of course limited to urban dwellers who're fairly active on social media. Thinkstock Photos While Gatsbying though, most people make sure their crush either has an inkling about the way they feel or knows of their existence because if that's not the case, they can't Gatsby successfully! Well, now let's focus on the relevance it has to the movie. If you see The Great Gatsby, you'd know how Jay Gatsby, a working -class Midwesterner transforms himself into a successful bachelor and throws these lavish parties to impress the womankind who're out of his league? He mostly threw them for Daisy, his long time crush back then, to impress the heck out of her, so that she could (a) notice him and (b) like him back. Since he didn't have Instagram or Snapchat to make stories from his life back in 1922, he resorted to real time parties. But today we have amidst us tools to impress people and give them a sneak peek into our mundane lives, which we try our best to make them look as ostentations on social media, as possible! Warner Bros. Well, some may say Gatsbying is primary meant to impress your crush who is way out of your league so you channelise all your efforts into making your Intagram and Snapchat stories and posts least poignant and quite thrilling. You may post stories of the parties you attend, or the people you hang out with, or stories about the good work that you do. Basically, anything you may feel will impress her and have her crush back on you! According to The New York Post, 'Gatsbying is the high-brow version of the Thirst Trap'. Now, if you're familiar with social media trends I don't have to explain what a thirst trap is, but if you have no idea, it's the millennial version of enticing your crush by posting sexy pictures of yourself, where you're skimpily clad and trying to be as sexual as you can. Pinterest Gatsbying comes off as much focused in this case, where you're trying to impress just one person. Thirst trap however could be for multiple crushes, all at once. Thirst trap is sexual in nature but it can have an empowering message for the audience as well, while trying to get attention from a crush. For instance, Demi Lovato may have posted a picture of herself in her lingerie to entice actor, Henry Cavill but her caption also read 'love yourself first, rest will fall into place'. This could also be a tactic to make her crush think a certain way about herself. But another stark difference between Gatsbying and Thirst Traps are that Thirst Traps are sexual in nature, while Gastbying is really not sexual. strategy pic.twitter.com/QdwaNxPusS — tyler oakley (@tyleroakley) 30 January 2018 strategy pic.twitter.com/QdwaNxPusS — tyler oakley (@tyleroakley) 30 January 2018 So, if you're doing regular rounds of social media, trying to impress someone new you've developed a crush on, you know what that means. It's nothing to be ashamed or embarrassed about. I don't think Jay Gatsby was either when he threw lavish parties to impress women. It's just a way to reclaim someone's interest to prolong conversations and hopefully win them over, through your precious, celebrated lifestyle on social media. So, if you're Gatsbying all day all night, we only hope she notices your effort and reciprocates accordingly! -

'Bardasht Nahi Kar Sakta' Could Be Remade & We Now Understand Why Our Parents Hated Remixes
ADMIN posted a blog entry in FDF Online News
Ameesha Patel and Akshaye Khanna might be in some cinema oblivion right now but once upon a time, they did some great work and charmed us with their good looks on the big screen (they're still good looking TBH). One particular super hit that they were part of together was 'Humraaz' and the song 'Bardasht Nahi Kar Sakta' was a massive hit. So since Bollywood has been a huge fan of revamping old hits, it does not really come as a surprise that the groovy song is being remade. It will be a part of the Kangana Ranaut and Rajkummar Rao starrer 'Mental Hai Kya' and will be recreated by Tanishk Bagchi. © Balaji Motion Pictures The question is 'why'? Tanishk is super talented and while we love his music, we want to know why change the memories attached to this song as well? Also, at least they should recreate it with Ameesha Patel and Akshaye Khanna! Is that too much to ask for? I will not accept it unless it features @ameesha_patel and Akshay Khanna. pic.twitter.com/3nFWUESIkR — Aayushi Bhargava (@AreUShe) November 20, 2018 Clearly, people are not happy with this development. So they are on a mission to ruin every freakin song from 10-20 years ago. — Desi Gooner (@Sahil_Adhikaari) November 20, 2018 Well, the song could turn out great eventually and who knows, it also might also end up on our play list, but right now, the idea of watching it again without the garish orange clothing, the amazing voice of KK and Ameesha and Akshay grooving intensely to "aaeeaaaooooo", seems outlandish. Basically, the remake of 'Bardasht' is something we don't want to 'bardasht' at all! -

Samsung Galaxy A9 Is The World's First Quad Camera Phone & Is Now Available In India
ADMIN posted a blog entry in FDF Online News
Last month, Samsung launched the Galaxy A7 in India and it brought in a triple rear camera setup to the midrange. Not only can it click portrait pictures, but it also sports a wide angle lens for ultrawide pictures. The phone was placed in the midrange segment, which has been extremely aggressively lately. Now, the company is back with the launch of the Galaxy A9. This phone brings in four camera sensors on the back, has a glass-metal build, and Samsung's flagship display. The phone was launched last month internationally and has finally made its way to India. © Samsung To start with, it has a 6.3-inch Full HD+ Super AMOLED Infinity display with a resolution of 1080×2220 pixels. This gives it an aspect ratio of 18.5:9 and a pixel density of about 392ppi. Powering the phone is a Qualcomm Snapdragon 660 chipset paired with Adreno 512 GPU and 6GB RAM in the base variant. The second option has 8GB RAM while the internal storage remains the same for the two at 128GB. It also has expandable memory support via a microSD card. © Samsung Coming to the optics, the four rear sensors are: a 24-megapixel lens with f/1.7 aperture, a 10-megapixel telephoto lens with f/2.4 aperture and 2X optical zoom, an 8-megapixel 120-degree ultra wide lens with f/2.4 aperture and finally a 5-megapixel depth sensor with f/2.2 aperture. Similar to the A7 design, the four lenses are housed in a vertical casing, but the fingerprint scanner is located on the back. The front has a 24-megapixel selfie shooter that supports facial recognition. Obviously, the phone ships with Bixby and Samsung Pay out of the box runs Android Oreo 8.0 with Samsung's own “Samsung Experience” UI running atop. © Samsung Backing these internals is a 3800mAh battery that charges via a USB-C port. The company has incorporated adaptive charging that charges the phone slightly faster. The phone will be competing against the recently launched OnePlus 6T that has been leading this price segment. The phone will be available exclusively online via Flipkart starting 28th November. The 6GB variant costs Rs 36,990 while the 8GB variant is priced at Rs 39,990 -

Zayn Malik Says He's Not Muslim And People Are Now Waiting For Him To Add Ex-Muslim To His Bio
ADMIN posted a blog entry in FDF Online News
I feel like Zayn Malik has always been the most controversial member of 'One Direction' and even after he has been long gone from the band – a band that doesn't probably even exist anymore – he is still the one making headlines for all kinds of controversial reasons. In an interview recently, Zayn revealed that he doesn't call himself a Muslim anymore. He said, “To be honest, I've never spoken publicly about what my religious beliefs are. I'm not professed to be a Muslim.” But, is it really a surprise? No, not at all. We haven't ever seen him be religious except for sometimes wearing desi clothes for Eid. Well, that's pretty much it, so obviously it's not a big shock. But, some fans are still upset about this revelation. zayn malik: leaving islam. fully understand why so many things are haraam in islam, the music industry and alcohol being an example. they just distance you from your religion till you've lost all faith. zayn's a prime example of letting fame get to his head. cancelled. 𤮠pic.twitter.com/qhghOfw2XK — bismah𥰠(@bismah_x) November 9, 2018 Exactly. so I've just been informed that Zayn Malik is not longer a Muslim and i'm honestly surprised you all didn't see this coming like why are you shocked lmao — sara (@sxmos_) November 8, 2018 Almost everyone – Zayn malik was muslim??? pic.twitter.com/p5Sti0gGBT — SpanishKash (@SlickSavant) November 8, 2018 It's Twitter, so there are obviously funny reactions. Zayn Malik about to put “ex-muslim” in his bio — Sk Jr. (@ajosdonbilivitt) November 8, 2018 So shocking, right? Me pretending to be surprised that #Zayn Malik doesn't consider himself #Muslim knowing that he's been drinking, partying and dating for years and expressed zero Islamic sentiment ever about anything. pic.twitter.com/3eawPwG8Kk — Salafi ð®ð·ðºð¸ (@PersianSunni) November 8, 2018 So confusing. You guys really expected Zayn Malik, a singer, someone who drinks, smokes, parties, has tattoos is every edge of his body to consider himself a Muslim? What are you all shocked about, Im confused ððð — swoopzy (@rxiamah) November 9, 2018 Thank you, next. Zayn Malik doesn't consider himself a Muslim. Muslim twitter: https://t.co/NFUycqeh6A — Priyanka's wedding ð â¡ (@Shezaahmed17) November 7, 2018 The best reaction, tbh. Just cos Zayn Malik sang Allah ke banday once, you lot thought he was gonna be next Khalifa of Islam?? even before this statement it's not hard to see that he doesn't claim Islam in anyway, he was in a boy band, has tattoos & drinks fs, why is everyone shocked LOOOL — Ra'naaldo (@RvNaa) November 8, 2018 He's just a 'gora' now, apparently. The Paki community no longer claims Zayn Malik, his actions will now be referred to as "goriyan de kam" — McBaÅÉ (@TheMcBang) November 9, 2018 Well, did he? I wonder if Zayn Malik got rid of his lota when he left Islam — McBaÅÉ (@TheMcBang) November 9, 2018 Oops. i was fully convinced that i was gonna end up marrying zayn malik and now he isn't a muslim anymore life's peak sometimes uno — dua (@quruxlaay) November 8, 2018 Nope. muslim twitter is getting pressed about zayn malik leaving islam like this boy hasn't been smoking, drinking, getting tattoos, and singing about f*cking his girlfriend for ages... when was he ever the poster boy for islamic values??? — ÙÙÛØÛ (@maleehagha) November 9, 2018 Okay then. zayn malik left Islam? feel like i'm going through a break up, my chest is hurting must be my heart ðð𪠗 Aliya (@_baaali12) November 8, 2018 Yeah, don't be mean. Wait so I just read Zayn's statement about leaving Islam and it's a nice piece BUT like did he need to mock muslims and their practices while doing it? Gross @zaynmalik — Georgette Smith (@GeorgetteSmithM) November 9, 2018 Okay, some people are angry as well. Who are you to leave Islam? The Islam has left you when you started drinking, became Playboy, going to parties for one night stand. The Islam has left you when you tattoed your whole body. No one abandoned Islam but Islam abandoned people like you.#ZaynMalik pic.twitter.com/ZrMIX1jqZf — Waqar Gohar (@WiKiGohar) November 11, 2018 A funny jab? Perfect. Zayn malik first left one direction, now he left right direction — Umarzð¸ð¦ (@JonSunow4) November 11, 2018 Oh no. Zayn Malik, a singer who drinks, does drugs, has tattoos and a live-in girlfriend: I'm not Muslim Entire Muslim Ummah: WhATTtt??!??!??? SHOOKETH.

Xbox One Will Now Work With A Keyboard & A Mouse, A Feature We've Been Wanting For Years
ADMIN posted a blog entry in FDF Online News
Microsoft announced on Saturday at its XO18 event that the console will now officially get mouse and keyboard support from November 14. The company is partnering with Razer to offer an exclusive “Designed for Xbox” mouse and keyboard that will be unveiled at the CES in January. © YouTube A total of eight games will be getting support on November 14th including ultra-popular battle royale game 'Fortnite'. The announcement was made along with several other announcements. Microsoft also said that the company is planned to acquire two new game studios i.e. Obsidian Entertainment and inXile Entertainment. © Pexels “These two creative teams will continue to operate autonomously and bring their unique talents, IP and expertise to Microsoft Studios as they build new RPG experiences for our players and fans,” Microsoft said. Developers can choose to require controllers in multiplayer games, or they could choose to pair mouse-and-keyboard gamers with PC gamers online thanks to the Xbox One's support for crossplay. Having said that, players will not be able to use a mouse and keyboard for every game on the Xbox One. Microsoft detailed that “With this new input support at the platform level, developers can now build mouse and keyboard support in their games if and how they choose. It's important to note that mouse and keyboard support for games is added on a title-by-title basis, entirely at developers' discretion. For all other titles, nothing changes. Mouse and keyboard input is not enabled by default for games. Each development team knows their titles best and we support them in creating the right experience for their games as they see fit, to ensure an optimal and fair gaming experience.” Here's a list of games that will offer support for keyboard and mouse in November along with many other developers adding support for their games in the near future: “Fortnite” “Warframe” “Bomber Crew” “Deep Rock Galactic” “Strange Brigade” “Vermintide 2” “War Thunder” “X-Morph Defence” -
Faizabad Is Now Ayodhya & Twitter Asks If Renaming Places Is The Only Thing Yogi Adityanath Does
ADMIN posted a blog entry in FDF Online News
First Allahabad and now Faizabad, looks like there's a wave of 'renaming' going on in Uttar Pradesh right now. Faizabad will officially be known as Sri Ayodhya from today onwards. #BREAKING – Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister @myogiadityanath renames Faizabad to Sri Ayodhya amidst thunderous applause from spectators. | #YogiInAyodhya pic.twitter.com/QRu4HL0UDJ — News18 (@CNNnews18) November 6, 2018 Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath made the important announcement just a few minutes ago during the grand Diwali celebrations being held in Ayodhya. While his announcement was met with thunderous applause, people on Twitter seemed to be divided about the second renaming in the state. While a lot of them are applauding the CM for this change, others are questioning whether renaming places is the only thing he does! Here are some of the reactions: Ok...another one now from Ajay Singh Bisht ( Naam Parivartan wale ) ... Faizabad will be known as AYODHYA from now onward . Utter stupidity technically . Faizabad is a district while Ayodhya has been a small town in it . Can we not name whole India as Ayodhya with this logic ? — Kishlaysharma (@Kishlaysharma) November 6, 2018 There's some support. So Faizabad is #Ayodhya now....... Great work by @myogiadityanath ....... — Vijay Deenanath Chauhan PRAYAGRAJ waale (@nawaabsab) November 6, 2018 A keen observation. Now Faizabad city and district will be known as Ayodhya. Once again renaming in Uttar Pradesh.. — Ujjwal Tripathi (@UjjwalBallia) November 6, 2018 Okay, then. I always use to wonder how Ayodhya is in 'Faizabad' which is Islamic by name. Can we think of Kabba situated in a place with such nomenclature? Great job Yogiji @myogiadityanath https://t.co/Ckejkw5m6X — Anirudh Goyal (@goyalanirudh) November 6, 2018 Asking the real questions. So Faizabad will now be renamed as #Ayodhya. Will it change anything for people of Ayodhya — dipak mondal (@Dipak_Journo) November 6, 2018 That's a legit hashtag? District Faizabad will now be known by its original name AYODHYA. Thank you @myogiadityanath ji for giving two hoots about leftists' opinion. #YogiRox ðð — ShankhNaad (@ShankhNaad) November 6, 2018 Umm.

FAIZABAD to be renamed as AYODHYA Great announcement from CM UP. — A.G.M.SWAMI (@agmswami) November 6, 2018 Shakespeare and politics. What's in the name-- William Shakespeare Name is everything here. It displays your religion, caste.-- Indian Politics#Faizabad #Ayodhya #AyodhyaDeepotsav — Ujjwal Tripathi (@UjjwalBallia) November 6, 2018 Okay. I am glad to know that #faizabad is being replaced by the #Ayodhya District. Thanks n big congratulations to CM @myogiadityanath Ji #AyodhyaRamMandir — Dr Alok Tripathi (@cancimmuno) November 6, 2018 That's a different take. As a native of Ayodhya, I feel the name change of the Faizabad district is a reflection of @BJP4India bankruptcy — Sanket Upadhyay (@sanket) November 6, 2018 Another take. Faizabad was a separate city. It had its own distinct identity and boundary from Ayodhya so renaming it is an attempt to erase the Nawabi history. — Rana Safvi رعÙا राना (@iamrana) November 6, 2018 Alright. Faizabad is Ayodhya. â Now the fake historians, pseudo seculars, fake liberals, paid activists, commirats, anti-nationals will indulge in bangles breaking procession. Democracy in danger, UP overtaken by Hinduvta Brigade... ððð#Diwali#YogiInAyodhya #Faizabad #Ayodhya — Tapan Parida (@tkparida) November 6, 2018 A lot of important questions. How does renaming Faizabad to Sri Ayodhya help? This wasn't the demand of the seers. Isn't name changing just a political gimmick? — Marya Shakil (@maryashakil) November 6, 2018 Will he? wth will yogi adityanath ever stop? #faizabad — Maryam Shaikh (@Teeyarn) November 6, 2018 Wow. #Ayodhya becomes the District name for erstwhile #Faizabad.

Only and only a Ram temple will be built in Ayodhya Faizabad district will now be called as Ayodhya A Medical College by the name “DASHARATH” And an Airport after the name of “LORD RAM” These were the prominent decisions taken by Yogi Ji in Ayodhya DEEPAVALI SAFFRONISED — Mahesh Vikram Hegde (@mvmeet) November 6, 2018 A lot, apparently.

Aamir Khan Aka Firangi From 'Thugs Of Hindostan' Is Now On Google Maps To Guide Us Home
ADMIN posted a blog entry in FDF Online News
'Thugs of Hindostan' is just one week away but its promotion has been going on in full swing for quite some time. There was already hype about the movie from the beginning just because of the star cast, which will obviously happen when you put Aamir Khan and Amitabh Bachchan in a movie together, and then all the looks from the movie and the trailer just built up the excitement even more. View this post on Instagram To see myself on a poster with Mr.Bachchan is a dream come true for me. I still cant believe it. #ThugsOfHindostan | @yrf | @tohthefilm | @amitabhbachchan | @katrinakaif | @fatimasanashaikh A post shared by Aamir Khan (@_aamirkhan) on Sep 24, 2018 at 11:22pm PDT However, the biggest problem everyone had with the movie was how much of a 'Pirates of the Caribbean' it looked like. But, even if the looks were not unique, at least the marketing for it is. Going to different shows to promote your movie is too mainstream – does anyone even watch TV anymore? So just turn to something everyone probably uses every day.

An animated version of Aamir's character from the movie appears riding a donkey and showing everyone the way. Now, this is what I call an original idea, tbh. So basically, everyone has the option of riding along with Firangi, aka the desi Jack Sparrow, while navigating your way while claiming things like “Chalo bhaiyya, one two three kick maar”. There are some steps for that before, though, but they're quite simple. To activate #FirangiOnGoogleMaps, follow these simple steps on @googlemaps.

Anup Jalota Claims That His Relationship With Jasleen Was Scripted & Everyone Is Confused Now
ADMIN posted a blog entry in FDF Online News
The Anup Jalota-Jasleen love story has taken a new angle after he got evicted from the 'Bigg Boss 'house. In his recent interviews, he has made some shocking claims about his equation with Jasleen Matharu which has baffled everyone. Anup claims that the relationship between the two was scripted and he was just playing along. © Colors According to his version, he had no idea that Jasleen was playing the 'romantic' angle and he entered the house with the intention of a 'guru-shishya' jodi only. It was only before they entered that he realised that Jasleen had explained their so-called 'romantic' relationship to the makers. He also added that he decided to just play along for her sake and now that he was evicted, he was revealing facts for the world. The strange part is that Jasleen's father also agreed with Anup Jalota in the interview. On the other hand, Shilpa Shinde told Jasleen about what was happening outside which has left her in shock and the viewers in a state of confusion. Jasleen made her dismay and disbelief very clear in last night's episode. No one knows what the reality behind the whole drama is and now we are waiting for Jasleen to come out and clear the air. -

Here Are The Best Wireless Earbuds One Can Buy In India Right Now
ADMIN posted a blog entry in FDF Online News
Gone are the days when you need to carry along over-the-head headphones to enjoy a very good quality of music on the go. Wireless earbuds have advanced a lot in the last few years and companies are now focusing on improving battery life as well as output quality. Obviously, for an audiophile, nothing beats a wired pair of headsets that deliver near perfect analogue output. But, when you are travelling and simply need a hands-free for calls, or occasional music while transiting along with great battery life, earbuds will be your best buddies. While core audio product companies have been making them for years, the launch of the AirPods has drastically improved the demand. While AirPods themselves are a perfect pair, they're restricted to the Apple devices. And, it's always great to have options. Here are the top wireless earbuds available in India right now. 1. Apple AirPods: © Apple Apple AirPods carry exactly the same vibe as the iPhone, they are carefully designed and built for the average Joe. They connect to your iPhone seamlessly, as every Apple device does in the ecosystem. The wired earpods are definitely the best in-box earphones we've used, and the AirPods continue the legacy, via a wireless medium. The earbuds deliver up to 2 hours of talk time, 5 hours of music playback, and take just 45 minutes to fully charge. They come fitted with dual beamforming mics, optical sensors, a motion-detecting accelerometer, and a speech detector. The case itself is a portable power bank and can quickly charge your AirPods when not in use. Buy from Amazon.in 2. Samsung Gear IconX: © TheNextWeb While Apple has the AirPods to compliment the iPhone, Samsung too has the IconX to compliment the S-series and N-series. The twist here is, you can use the IconX with any iOS or Android device. The earbuds also come with onboard 4GB storage meaning you can keep your phone aside an go for a run worry-free. The inbuilt accelerometer doubles up as your smart tracker and keeps a note of your steps and pace. The audio quality is on par with all flagship earbuds but these also offer ambient-noise setting via the Gear Manager app. It can stream 7 hours of local music and 5 hours of on-mobile streaming and overall offer much better battery life over the AirPods. Buy from Amazon.in 3. Bose Sound Sport Free: © Bose These are the most comfortable earbuds out there and have a very secure fit. These also come with an IPX4 rating, meaning they are sweat resistant. For the gym, these are definitely most recommended. The sound is perfectly balanced in terms of highs, mids, and lows to give a complete experience. It works with both, Android and iOS and comes with support for digital voice assistants such as Siri or Google Assistant. The mic is also top-notch and calls are crystal clear. The wireless earbuds can last up to 5 hours on a single charge and can be extended with the carry case by an additional 10 hours. Buy from Amazon.in 4. Jabra Elite 65t: © DigitalTrends These are another pair of truly wireless earbuds that sound great, last up to 5 hours on a charge and have a free companion app. They come with IP55 water and dust resistance rating along with a 2-year warranty. Even these are immensely comfortable and connect instantly to your phone. The left bud controls volume and track and the right bud handles answering/ending calls, play/pause and queueing up the digital assistant. The buds feature passive noise-cancelling but slightly miss out on music quality. The charging case provides up to two additional charges, bringing the battery life up to approximately 15 hours. Buy from Amazon.in 5. Sony WF-SP700N: © RTINGS These fit comfortably and sound good for truly wireless headphones in the flagship segment. Built-in noise-cancelling helps muffle ambient sounds and the output can be toggled through various pre-set equalizer modes. An included charging case delivers two additional charges though they have just 3 hours of streaming on a single charge. The Sonys performed decently but aren't great as a headset for making calls. Unlike these, both the AirPods and Jabra earphones deliver sound in both buds when you're making calls. Buy from Amazon.in 6. Anker Z2000 (ZOLO): © Zolo A slightly budget-friendly pair in the premium segment, they come with graphene-enhanced driver technology that has decent music output and an extended battery life of 40-hours, including the case charge. They are built with a sweat resistant casing and a specialized hydrophobic nano-coating and come with super-soft liquid silicone ear tips and jackets. A single button on either earpiece gives you complete control of your music. Buy from Amazon.in 7.

The Tides Of #MeToo Are Stirring The Winds Of Change In India & There's No Backing Down Now
ADMIN posted a blog entry in FDF Online News
Over a year has gone by since Hollywood biggie Harvey Weinstein was exposed by The New York Times, a monumental day that marked the real beginning of the #MeToo movement. All these women, these survivors have been raising their voices loud and clear - they are ready to be heard. The #MeToo movement's arrival in India earlier this October, has followed in the same footsteps. The uprising has since shaken up our nonchalant society, that has long subdued and ignored the protests of sexual abuse and harassment survivors. The voices are finally being heard in our homeland. © Twitter Don't believe us? You think the movement hasn't caused a stir worth acknowledging and looking out for? Well, to such naysayers, we bring these proofs. A recent report published by The Indian Express shows that the #MeToo tweets in India in the month of October has exceeded US' monthly high. That is, between September 20th and October 19th, 1.2 million #MeToo tweets have come out of India. The report also states that “Twitter saw more #MeToo tweets from India at the month ending October 19 than any single month in the US over the past year”. With India's October #MeToo tweets exceeding US' monthly high, it evidently seems that Indian women have finally launched a movement that will not die anytime soon, and surely not without bringing about a change. © Twitter The uproar has already managed to cause a seismic shift in the country's gender politics and altered the status-quo across the nation in varying degrees. Showing her support towards Tanushree, and placing her faith in the movement's inherent power, Freida Pinto wrote in a Instagram post, "What you have done is monumental and important and it has to shake the very core of a nation and an ideology that for too long has gotten away with heinous crimes against women and where the ugliness of misogyny has dominated the rights and suppressed any voice that has dared to speak up." It seems this time women have sworn to not stop until the culprits are brought to justice, until the power structures are dismantled, and the laws that are meant to protect the wellbeing of the country's citizens, are not bent to serve the powerful and mighty. Actor Richa Chadha seems to be highlighting this aspect of the movement when she told PTI that, "The #MeToo movement isn't going away any time soon. It is here to stay. It is time to make men accountable for their actions and the trauma that is caused to the victims, men or women”. © Twitter Regardless of what the naysayers and fake male feminists try to believe, the winds of change are blowing stronger than ever amidst #MeToo solidarity. The pushback has forced prominent accused such as MJ Akbar, Prashant Jha, Sajid Khan and many others to step down from their positions of power, and step away from their projects and positions, under the public glare. Numerous celebrities, journalists and politicians have also come forward to support the survivors who have spoken up and condemned the culprits. Be it Farhan Akhtar, Hansal Mehta, Priyanka Chopra, or Sandhya Menon and Maneka Gandhi, they have all come in support of the movement. Anurag Kashyap and Akshay Kumar have also condemned and stepped away from projects they had undertaken with Vikas Bahl and Sajid Khan respectively. However, socio-political activist Chanda Asani feels that the movement needs to turn more inclusive, where it can move beyond social media and include the voices of people working on the ground. She further says that "On sexual harassment, I think we are trying to put ourselves in the same rut patriarchy has put us in. It's not just about the body - woman or man's. The power structures need to change”. We hope the tides of #MeToo leave behind a better tomorrow in its wake, not only for the survivors to heal, but for the future generations to live freely in. -
Now That 'Sacred Games' Is Coming Back, Here Are 5 Things We Expect To Unravel On The Show
ADMIN posted a blog entry in FDF Online News
It's a good day for the makers, actors, fans and basically, everyone who was anxiously awaiting to know the fate of the second season of the explosive show 'Sacred Games'. The fate of the next season was in a pendulum state after certain individuals associated with the show, were involved in a case of sexual misconduct and harassment. In a recent statement issued by Netflix, it was mentioned that the second season was on and that it would continue to work with directors Anurag Kashyap, Vikramaditya Motwane and lead writer Varun Grover. Now that the shoot for the second season will resume, here are five things we are expecting to unravel when the show hits the air again: 1. Trivedi's Fate- Probably one of the most important questions. Is he dead or will he survive after what happened to him? Basically what is that bunker where he was found and why was it there in the first place? 2. The story behind 'Guruji'- Pankaj Tripathi will play a pivotal role in this season and we can't wait to see how he fits into this puzzle of being Gaitonde's 'third father'. © Netflix 3. Gaitonde's Story- His narration is clearly not over, nor is his part of the story. Can't wait to see what more the kingpin has to show us! © Netflix 4. Sartaj's Newfound Confidence- Saif Ali Khan surprised us all with his brilliant performance and now that Sartaj has found the confidence to lead the show, his role will get stronger by the minute, which will be very interesting to witness. © Netflix 5. Bunty's Presence- Jatin Sarna is reprising his role of 'Bunty' which means there is still a storyline attached to his name. We were sad when he died on the show, but we trust the brilliance of the directors to sew his story in a flashback. While you might think reading the book will give you an insight for what to expect, but you forget that Anurag Kashyap and Vikramaditya Motwane know exactly how to keep their viewers hooked. Although we wish we could witness more of 'Kukkoo ka jadoo' as well. -
People Will Now Gather In CP To Shout 'Thain Thain' To Celebrate An Eco-Friendly Diwali
ADMIN posted a blog entry in FDF Online News
When two UP cops went on an encounter in Sambhal district, they did not just come back with the criminals, they gave the internet a meme-orable term that people won't forget anytime soon. We're talking about the iconic 'Thain Thain' that a cop shouted out as a last resort, when the pistol got jammed during an operation to catch the goons. #WATCH: Police personnel shouts 'thain thain' to scare criminals during an encounter in Sambhal after his revolver got jammed. ASP says, 'words like 'maaro & ghero' are said to create mental pressure on criminals. Cartridges being stuck in revolver is a technical fault'. (12.10) pic.twitter.com/NKyEnPZukh — ANI UP (@ANINewsUP) October 13, 2018 The cop's 'presence of mind' gave him fame and a bravery award recommendation, while also giving the internet a string of hilarious memes. It also gave a YouTuber an idea to replace the word with the gun sounds in 'Counter-Strike'. But most importantly, it gave a bunch of genius people an idea to celebrate Diwali in an eco-friendly way. We're not even close to joking when we say that a group of people are planning to gather in Connaught Place, just to shout 'Thain Thain' to celebrate an eco-friendly Diwali. The event is being hosted by 'The Wander Bottle'. Facebook The event page says, "We request you all to mark your presence in Central Park at 5 pm and shout "Thain, Thain" to celebrate eco-friendly Diwali." Honestly, I don't know what's crazier, the fact that there's a legit event page on Facebook or the fact that I am actually contemplating going there to shout 'thain thain'. -
Apple Watch Series 4 Review: Hands Down The Best Smartwatch Money Can Buy Right Now
ADMIN posted a blog entry in FDF Online News
Apple Watch has now become the must-have wearable for every iPhone owner. The Apple Watch Series 4 is the latest iteration of Apple's smartwatch line and Apple has not only made it better, but the company has added a few more nifty features that make it the best smartwatch on the planet. The Apple Watch Series 4 has a bigger screen, a thinner case, more accurate sensors and a fresh new design. The AW Series 4 is probably the only smartwatch out there that fulfils everything you expect from a wearable and here's how it managed to impress us. Design & Display Apple Watch series 4 looks notably different from its previous iterations, as Apple has now provided a bigger screen with far fewer bezels. It looks even sexier than ever before and looks more in line with the current generation of iPhones. The near bezel-less display gives more screen real-estate as both models are 30% larger while maintaining the same case size. We got the 44mm model for review and it has a resolution of 448x368 versus the 340x272 display resolution of the AW Series 3. © Apple Thanks to the extra space, the icons for applications are larger, in turn, making it easy to access. Notifications are also easier to read due to the larger text. The brightness on the Apple Watch Series 4 remains unchanged but it still works like a charm even under direct sunlight. My new favourite watch face. https://t.co/NnXWoYrxPg">pic.twitter.com/NnXWoYrxPg — Akshay Bhalla (@Bhallanator) https://twitter.com/Bhallanator/status/1054587979207831553?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">October 23, 2018 © MensXP/Akshay Bhalla The Series 4 also has a set of exclusive watch faces that have been specifically designed for the larger screens. For example, there is a vapour watch face that has become our favourite out of the lot. The Infograph Modular watch face is also a nifty addition as it enables the user to see more information than ever before. For example, I've set up my Infograph Modular watch face with information such as Weather updates, Multiple time zone clocks, event tracking, activity rings, walkie-talkie, fast calling and Apple Music. You can fire up all of the apps right from the Series 4 without ever opening the Apps scroller. The cool bit is that another Infograph watch is capable of showing 8 complications and you can customise each complication to your liking. Features: Health & Other Cool Stuff Apple has been consistently improving the various health apps and has now added a bunch of other cool features to make Apple Watch a must-have device. The new Apple Watch now has an atrial fibrillation feature, which means it will alert you when you experience five or more irregular heartbeat rhythms. This feature is not exclusive to Apple Watch Series 4 but has rather come as an update via WatchOS 5. © Apple The new ECG app is available exclusively on the Apple Watch Series 4, however, it is currently not available to use due to pending approvals from various Governments. Just so you know, it works using electrodes on the back that is in the sapphire crystal-and-ceramic back and even the Digital Crown. Both the irregular heart rhythm detection feature and the ECG app will come via an update later this year. When it comes to fitness tracking, the Apple Watch has always been accurate in terms of keeping tabs on your steps, active heart rate and exercises. The new Apple Watch can now detect exercises automatically, a feature I've always wanted. For example, there have been times when I've started running on the treadmill and forgot to turn on the tracking and lost all my data about calories burnt and steps. Now, the Apple Watch will automatically detect me running on the treadmill and will even grant retro credit from before. As usual, everything gets collated in the Activity app on your phone, where it's laid out in an easy-to-understand interface. There are other new features such as challenging friends to activity competitions that last up to a week. It can track in metrics such as cadence and rolling miles. The workout app now has new modes that it can track such as Yoga and Hiking. GPS Or Cellular? © MensXP/Akshay Bhalla We got the Cellular variant for review and we can confidently say that the reception has improved a lot when compared to its predecessor. The voice quality is crystal clear and since the AW Series 4 have been outfitted with louder and clearer speakers, it makes it easier to converse, even when you are in a crowded area. However, if you are the kind of person who always has his/her iPhone around you, we would recommend you buy the GPS version. The cellular variant costs Rs. 49,900 (40mm), while the Series 4 Cellular edition 44mm with aluminium case costs Rs. 52,900. The GPS model costs Rs 40,900 for the 40mm variant and Rs. 43,900 for the larger model which makes more sense, if you don't need the cellular feature. What We Didn't Like © MensXP/Akshay Bhalla As usual, the battery life remains unchanged on the new Apple Watch as it would not last longer than 19 hours for us. We used the AW Series 4 for tracking steps, swim workouts, checking emails and sending messages. We even used Siri to set up a few reminders and ask for directions while we were walking to finds a restaurant. It managed to survive the entire day and evening and finally gave up at around 11:00 PM. We would have loved to see some improvement in battery life but that remains to be seen. The Final Say The Apple Watch Series 4 is probably the only smartwatch out there that can do things effectively. It works as an effective activity tracker and can also end up saving your life one-day thanks to the various health features. It looks sexy and snug on the wrist and has an updated design that makes it stand out from the rest. If you are an iPhone user, this is a must-have wearable that will make your life easier in more than one way. It is and will remain the best smartwatch on the planet for the rest of the year. -

ADMIN posted a blog entry in FDF Online News
Its been a couple of months since Google officially released the Android Pie update, and we are finally seeing new phones launch with the latest OS out of the box. Many phone makers have also started rolling out the new update over the air, and even more devices are expected to get it in the coming weeks. While the Pixel phones are among the first to receive the OS update, many makers who've tied up with Google's Android One initiative have started rolling out the update for their devices. Android One has been popular for two reasons, firstly the stock Android experience and secondly quick update release. Here's a list of devices that are available for purchase in India right now and run the Android Pie update out of the box or via an OTA release. 1. The Pixel Family: © MensXP The Pixel lineup is obvious to get the Android Pie update first, the direct software release from Google is one of the prime fortes for the phones.

OnePlus 6: © MensXP OnePlus has been exceptionally fast in releasing the Android Pie update, it's even faster than a majority of Android One devices out there. Even though the phone runs on a customised OxygenOS skin, the company has managed to create a record for itself.

#MeToo Is Now An Urban Phenomenon & Is Not Just Restricted To Calling Out Public Figures Anymore
ADMIN posted a blog entry in FDF Online News
In 1968, American poet and activist, Muriel Rukeyser was quoted asking a very pertinent question- "what would happen if one woman told the truth about her life? The world would split open". The relevance of this quote today is unimaginable, with regard to the #MeToo movement. Women have been stepping out from years of sexual abuse and harassment and speaking boldly about facts they've been ruminating over, for ages now and that's what has made this movement powerful. Their previously unheard voices. © Twitter But we mustn't mistake this movement to be concentric to the urban elite or the upper middle class or the rich and the famous. Although, yes, the genesis was from Hollywood and it rippled all the way to Bollywood, it has also impacted smaller circles, cities and small town as well. Over the last couple of weeks, we've seen women bravely speak out against men with positions of power and take the storm head on. But there have also been women amidst us, who've spoken up against their not-so-known perpetrators, in the same capacity as the women who've spoken about prominent figures in society and it's their story too. What I am getting at is, the #MeToo movement might have been a wake-up call for the rich and the famous but the phenomenon hasn't stopped there and it has surely trickled down and made its way through the urban divide as well. © Twitter To classify #MeToo as a movement just for celebrities and figureheads is entirely unfair. Smaller fractions of society are feeling the heavy weight of the movement upon them too and women have come together to stand up for one another. Even though the movement is running parallel in two strata's of society, a lot of similarities in understanding and responding to the movement can be seen. The most obvious one is most men being in denial vicariously and unapologetically. © Twitter Another similarity to observe here is the fact that women are unanimously polarising the effect of the movement in a very concerted way, to say the least. Men and women alike are heading in a direction that I would like to call as the 'new world gender order', or at least the brink of it. No, I am not talking about any totalitarian government but a unique and precise gender identity that's taking precedence now. Gender roles are more defined, regardless of caste and creed. And it's only possible because an entire country is marching up and confronting the movement head-on, and not just a single strata of society. © Twitter According to a visualisation of the Google trends data, which shows the top cities searching for the #MeToo movement around the world, India tops the list. It's actually true. I don't know if it's because we're a heavily populated country and the search for these cases is more prevalent here or because patriarchy and basic conditioning is so deep-rooted in our upbringing, that everyone relates to the movement more substantially. NASA actually captured an image, as they did of India on Diwali, showing India as most lit up on the entire globe, corroborating the reach and the momentum of the movement, so to speak. Surprisingly though, Google hasn't listed Delhi, Bengaluru or Mumbai as the cities that are searching for #Metoo movement online, but you'll see Chicalim in Goa, Bhusawal in Maharashtra, Zirakpur in Punjab and Bhanwreli in Chattisgarh topping the search. While the movement is in full flow in bigger cities, smaller towns are actively trying to contribute to the movement too, by reading up as much of it, as they can on it. Statistically, rapes and cases of sexual harassment and assault are more prevalent in smaller towns and villages and this is the best piece of education the internet can impart, to women especially, who are subjugated to these crimes in the past, or the present and want to be heard. © Twitter Having said that, women in bigger cities, working in regular 9-5 jobs are also getting together and calling men out for their behaviour. They're forming smaller groups to fight for the movement together to bring the perpetrators out in the open. So, to be fair, calling the movement a movement for the 'privileged' is absolutely unfair. Anyone who has a voice can come forth and talk about their story, openly while knowing the consequences of openly talking about it, will always favour anyone who decides to do it.
