Vicky Kaushal is surely on a roll now as he has become one of the poster boys of new age cinema. The 'Sanju' actor is not shying away from experimenting, and right from the start, he has proved his versatility. Now, he is making his debut in the horror genre with 'Bhoot Part One - The Haunted Ship'. Vicky took to Twitter to reveal the first poster of 'Bhoot Part One - The Haunted Ship'. In the poster, a haunted and bruised Vicky is seen screaming, while a hand grabs his face. He tweeted the poster and wrote, "Nothing haunts you more than reality. Presenting #Bhoot Part One - The Haunted Ship, directed by @Bps_91. In cinemas 15th November 2019. @karanjohar @apoorvamehta18 @shashankkhaitan @DharmaMovies." 'Bhoot' is the first franchise in its line and will be followed by other instalments. With 'Bhoot', Karan Johar is also stepping into the horror territory for the first time. Bhanu Pratap Singh, who was an assistant director in 'Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania', will be making his directorial debut. Check out the poster and a few stills of Vicky Kaushal here: Nothing haunts you more than reality. Presenting #Bhoot Part One - The Haunted Ship, directed by @Bps_91.

He was extremely passionate about the horror genre and wanted to direct this particular brand of cinema. Horror is a massively successful genre worldwide and I was excited to begin Dharma's first franchise. BHOOT is the first part of our horror franchise and we are beginning our journey with the exceptionally talented Vicky Kaushal." It will be interesting to see how the movie shapes up. The makers have also announced the release date of the film in the poster, and it is all set to hit the theatres on November 15, 2019. Vicky's fans are now pretty excited after the first look of the posted and are waiting to see the film on the big screens.

United States President Donald Trump is known to have a way with words. And, of course, that isn't anything to do with great use of the English vocabulary or enlightening his audience to insightful remarks. Instead, Trump often ends up making headlines and courting controversy by expressing his beliefs and opinions under the public glare. And this aspect of his personality isn't coming to light just now, it's been around since time immemorial. Remember, new "environment friendly" lightbulbs can cause cancer. Be careful-- the idiots who came up with this stuff don't care. — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 17, 2012 Even his latest diplomatic visit to the United Kingdom was met with protests and sloganeering, as thousands took to the streets of London to voice their dissent against Trump's visit to the country. (FYI, Trump denied that Londoners were protesting against his visit and called the demonstrations “fake news” though as many as 75,000 people participated in the protests.) (c) Twitter However, the latest reason why Trump is yet again trending on social media is because of his most recent tweet. For all of the money we are spending, NASA should NOT be talking about going to the Moon - We did that 50 years ago. They should be focused on the much bigger things we are doing, including Mars (of which the Moon is a part), Defense and Science! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) June 7, 2019 Yes, you read that right. Hours ago, Trump hit out at NASA and said that it shouldn't consider going to the moon as an achievement since the feat was already ticked off 50 years ago. Instead, the space agency should focus on “bigger things”. The tweet only confused people further, because the Trump government had earlier announced their plans to restart moon landings by 2024. As @POTUS said, @NASA is using the Moon to send humans to Mars! Right now, @MarsCuriosity and @NASAInSight are on Mars and will soon be joined by the Mars 2020 rover and the Mars helicopter. pic.twitter.com/Br1sTYfNzd — Jim Bridenstine (@JimBridenstine) June 7, 2019 But that's not all. While talking about the need for NASA to shift its focus on bigger things such as Mars, Trump ended up suggesting that the moon is a part of Mars. This major goof-up didn't go unnoticed, and people on social media cannot seem to stop themselves from sharing a great laugh at the expense of the US President and his choice of words. You are not fit to lead this country (or explain the solar system to children). — Trump's Ties (@TrumpsTies) June 7, 2019 "Science" I know reading isn't really your thing so here are some pictures! That red circley thing— That is Mars. That smaller white circley thing— That is the Moon. Mars ∩ Moon = Ø pic.twitter.com/6nTioXYBKj — Ryan Hill (@RyanHillMI) June 7, 2019 This dude went all out. President no speak good. Double SAD (h/t @Trumps_Editors) pic.twitter.com/hliH8l1S8L — Ryan Hill (@RyanHillMI) June 7, 2019 LOL Yeah sorry I just straight up stole Earth's moon. I got kinda jealous — Mars (@4thFromOurStar) June 8, 2019 Touche. The Moon is as much a part of Mars As honesty is part of Sarah Sanders As reality is part of Giuliani As sanity is part of Hannity As Christianity is part of the Coultergeist As compassion is part of Republicans As piracy is part of Space As genius is part of Trump — Tomi T Ahonen (@tomiahonen) June 8, 2019 On-Point pic.twitter.com/BJzjmmlM3b — My Haircut Has a Fanclub (@Yax_Attack) June 8, 2019

When I wrote my last entry, The Dogly Mail had just reached the 100 member milestone but since then things have grown impressively. The photo competition has proven very successful at encouraging new signups and we are now at around 1400 members picking up 15-20 new members a day. This is far better than I could have hoped for but there a few caveats… Not all traffic and content is equal In building website traffic I’ve realised that high member numbers are great and help to validate your ideas but member quality is far more important. I have been able to boost the member growth non-organically with a minimal Facebook ad spend in conjunction with the competition but we’re still trying to find those super contributors. The members we have are not yet invested in the site themselves and the sense of community that is required to be sustainable long term is still in its infancy. We have also found that with the opt-in mailing list, around 50% of the registered members are signing up for the newsletter during registration. This is encouraging to me based on the non-organic growth so hopefully, with more organic growth this will rise further. What are we doing to get higher quality contributions? We are collaborating with a vet on professional articles to give the site more credibility in the areas I am not an expert in and Andy is covering dog news where he has time. Hopefully, over the long term, this will help to improve the organic traffic to the website. With the articles, we now have high-end long-form content covered although I would like to get a more varied team of writers on board to broaden the appeal of the subject matter. We also have more fun commenting, likes and meme social interaction covered in the photo competition section. This leaves a gap in the middle for more serious user-contributed discussion and opinion and what ultimately will make or break the website. For this, we’re working on getting the blogs application ready for when we feel the traffic is sufficient to launch another area. When it’s ready we will slowly transition the ad spend towards the new blog section and forums to provide more balanced traffic coming to the site. We will also be able to promote the new sections via the newsletter. I am almost at the end of the school year so my time on the site should increase and I can get more involved with discussion topics to try and foster that sense of community. What else have I learned? Keeping people’s attention is not easy and once a member has left the site you need to work really hard to get them to revisit. It’s something I read a lot of on these forums so hopefully, Invision is working on this to help us keep people engaged. As you can see we’re still in the try lots of things to see what works stage but the learning experience is part of the fun. We were running AdSense ads and getting a little back from the spend we were doing ourselves but I feel at this stage it is counter-productive. We have decided to stop AdSense for the time being in order to concentrate on building traffic and the membership and will revisit the monetisation options once the site has grown. Not running the adverts has also given the site a substantial speed boost which will hopefully help us with organic rankings. If you’re running your community as a hobby you may not wish to spend anything on advertising to start and may prefer to slowly add to your website content. With so much competition for traffic online though this would be a very slow strategy for us for what I still hope to be a commercially viable micro business. On the current growth path, I hope to be profitable in 12-18 months and will keep you updated with the highs or lows along the way.

I basically covered this in the first and second part of this article, but yes, no one likes getting rejected, but also no one can ever avoid rejection in life. The most important and telling thing, though, is how someone reacts to the rejection. We're not talking about like serious rejection in life today, but rather how fast some guys change as soon as they get rejected. All the self-proclaimed nice guys who think that women don't like them because they're too nice and women always end up choosing the jerk, we're talking about them today. As a way to call out guys who just turn hostile after no reply by the girl, or just getting rejected, a Twitter account is here to talk about everything. The account called 'She Rates Dogs' posts a bunch of screenshots that they receive and rates the guys, which is usually in the minus, of course. And yes, this is the third part of the same article because this is so common, so many guys don't know how to handle rejection and that's why the page is always thriving with new, hilarious, and sometimes scary reactions. Sure buddy. “I'm OK with that” floored me pic.twitter.com/GVtZ94e4eD — SheRatesDogs (@SheRatesDogs) May 15, 2019 Just wow. It's very scary to be a girl pic.twitter.com/NB2jx1jfn1 — SheRatesDogs (@SheRatesDogs) May 13, 2019 Not even rejection, just straight up annoying. Omg she was being so accommodating lmao how did he make this her fault pic.twitter.com/vIx5wBvKOm — SheRatesDogs (@SheRatesDogs) May 11, 2019 All she said was 'hey'. Does he seriously think that because he paid for tinder the girls on it owe him something......???? pic.twitter.com/CLte2G3fSk — SheRatesDogs (@SheRatesDogs) May 7, 2019 This is just so scary.

It's raining sequels in Bollywood right now. It can also be said that sequels have now become a sure shot formula to score success at the box office. The latest one to join the league is Akshay Kumar and Vidya Balan starrer 'Bhool Bhulaiyaa'. Earlier, there were reports about the sequel but now we have a confirmation about the same. Yes, you heard that right. The horror-comedy superhit will have a part two and we cannot help but hope for more twists and turns. T-Series honcho Bhushan Kumar will be producing the film and interestingly, he has got the first narration from director Farhad Samji. A source close to the development told MensXP, “Farhad Samji is both writing and directing the film. He has given the first narration to Bhushan Kumar and he has liked the idea. Currently, Farhad is working on the script and is also looking for a fresh cast this time. The title has always been registered and it's called 'Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2'.” Is Akshay a part of the sequel? Well, then the answer is no. Our source also told us, “Akshay is, for sure, not a part of 'Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2'. The makers will look for a new cast altogether. Right now, the latest development is this and Bhushan Kumar is quite interested in the idea of this sequel.” The original film was an official remake of the Malayalam hit film 'Manichitrathazhu'' starring Mohanlal and Shobana. Director Farhad is presently working on 'Housefull 4' and it features Akshay Kumar. It will be interesting to see who will step into the shoes of Akshay Kumar. Any guesses? Do let us know in the comments below. Apart from 'Bhool Bhulaiya 2', the producer is already remaking BR Chopra's 1978 drama 'Pati Patni Aur Woh' starring Kartik Aaryan, Bhumi Pednekar, and Ananya Panday and Hrishikesh Mukherjee's 1975 comedy 'Chupke Chupke', in which Rajkummar Rao will reprise Dharmendra's role. Stay tuned in for more such Bollywood updates.

Spoilers ahead. If I ask any Marvel fan which quote started the entire Marvel Cinematic Universe, they would tell me one thing - He's fucking Iron Man and he wants the world to know that! This was such a huge defining moment for the MCU. What a line, so simple yet so powerful, and it made the first 'Iron Man' movie so much better. Side note, Happy Birthday to the first Iron Man movie! 'I am Iron Man', the last line spoken in the first 'Iron Man' movie made a comeback in 'Avengers: Endgame' as well, of course. 'Iron Man' was RDJ's first appearance as the iconic character that changed the world of Marvel forever and 'Endgame' marked the last time, sadly. So, it's kind of symbolic to see everything come full circle, just like his character arc did. But, it came as such a surprise to me that the iconic line almost didn't make it to the movie. In the last moment, during the final battle in 'Endgame', Thanos finally has the gauntlet with all the Infinity Stones and says “I am inevitable”. At that moment, all hope was lost for a second and we thought everyone would disintegrate again when Thanos snaps his fingers again. But, Tony Stark comes to the rescue and prevents the repeat of the final 'Infinity War' scene. He steals - very sneakily, I might add - all the stones from Thanos and delivers the one line, the best line at that moment - 'I am Iron Man' - right before snapping his fingers and making Thanos and his entire army disintegrate. Turns out, that line was actually a last minute addition. He originally wasn't supposed to say anything, but the Russo Brothers talked about how difficult it was to nail the final line. They said, “We were in the editing room going, 'He has to say something. This a character who has lived and died by quips.' And we just couldn't, we tried a million different last lines.” Then, Jeff Ford, the Russo Brothers' right-hand man and editor on 'Captain America: The Winter Soldier', 'Civil War', 'Avengers: Infinity War', and 'Endgame' gave the best suggestion - “Why don't we just go full circle with it and say 'I am Iron Man'?” They loved it so much that they immediately went, “Get the cameras! We have to shoot this tomorrow.” And, the rest is history. I would personally like to thank Jeff because without that final line in 'Endgame', the movie wouldn't have been the same.

Looks like the audience cannot get enough of being 'tabaah ho gaye' after watching and experiencing the magnum opus of this year, 'Kalank'. The Alia Bhatt-Varun Dhawan starrer movie is a tale of pain and love set amidst the backdrop of the pre-partition era and while many expectations have been shattered in a day, the memes cannot stop pouring on our social media feeds.

We all know Will Smith loves India and he proved that to us when he actually did come here to partake in the Leadership summit and also because he has a brief cameo in Karan Johar's 'Student of the year'. The 'Men In Black' actor is one of the finest in Hollywood and has an array of films under his belt that have done fairly well. © Instagram One of the main reasons he's liked so much by his fans is because he's one of the most grounded stars you'll ever come across. We saw that when he was in India, doing very Indian things. Like riding an auto in Mumbai, or chilling desi style or even doing a puja in Haridwar, because he can! The actor made a quick trip to Haridwar and Rishikesh and performed the rudrabhishek in Haridwar and participated in the Ganga Arti in Rishikesh. He also had a local Pandit read his horoscope. Smith said this experience was a great spiritual awakening for him. Why are we refreshing memories here? Because Smith recently shared his India sojourns on his Instagram account and it's quite endearing to read actually. He wrote: 'My Grandmother used to say, “God Teaches through Experience”. Traveling to India & Experiencing the colors, people and natural beauty has awakened a new understanding of myself, my Art & the Truths of the world'. Isn't that the sweetest caption? Here are the pictures he shared along with it: My Grandmother used to say, “God Teaches through Experience”. Traveling to India & Experiencing the colors, people and natural beauty has awakened a new understanding of myself, my Art & the Truths of the world. A post shared by Will Smith (@willsmith) on Apr 6, 2019 at 1:51pm PDT Well, we really hope he comes back again and does local touristy things. I won't be shocked if I find him driving a tractor in Haryana sometime soon. For now, we're really looking forward to Aladdin in May 2019, where he'd be playing Genie.

Since the last blog entry in this series I have been very busy. I’m still working full time so haven’t been able to spend as much time as I would have liked on The Dogly Mail but I’m really enjoying the time I can. Early growth has been promising and I have been experimenting with different ideas that have come from founder members to see what might work long term. We recently broke the 100 member milestone and that all came from word of mouth. We’re not talking huge numbers but I’m very encouraged for the future. My focus is now on building interactions with four main areas of the site. Forums I had imagined the forums being the most active area after seeing other Invision Communities but I don’t think there are enough regularly active members yet for this area to be truly useful so it is (for now) not the main priority. I am however using some forums functionality effectively. I’ve added a special offers forum that is viewable by non members but to get to the actual topic contents you need to register. This seems to be enticing a few people to sign up and I want to approach more retailers to build on this. Polls are also proving popular and new members who may not want to commit to introducing themselves or posting a full topic are at least interacting. I’ll be looking for more ways of adding easy interactions such as this. If anybody has any ideas for encouraging early discussion please let me know in the comments. Articles In the articles section new items are slowly being added and I find this a good opportunity to show some personality and indicate to users what they can expect from the rest of the site. I am trying all kinds of articles such as news, reviews, recipes and dog training guides to find out what I should focus on. I would also like to attract some guest writers for different viewpoints and to free up some of my time. Being able to see article view counts in Invision Community and the direct commenting functionality gives me good feedback. Events The launch of the events section coincided with a large dog related event in London and through it I was able to collaborate with the event organisers and do some succesful networking. This has led to some future opportunities for product reviews and reinforces my point from the last blog article where not all of your time should be spent behind the keyboard. Most of the events are being added by myself but hopefully as this section builds others will find it useful for promoting their own events. Photos One of the early members was quick to suggest we incorporate image sharing into the website as after all how can anybody resist cute photos of puppies? For this I originally looked at the Invision Gallery but felt that this section needed to have a voting element and Gallery was perhaps too feature rich. I wanted it to be a simple first interation with the website. I wanted people to be able to vote and more importantly encourage their friends to sign up and vote too. We started out with a simple topic and for the first month with not many people this worked great. One post was an entry and people could “Like” their favourites. It quickly became quite popular and it was clear that we would need something dedicated to the task so I commissioned some custom work. This was real investment but is already showing promising signs after launching April 1st. New members can now enter the photo competition and register at the same time so most new registrations are now coming from this route. I’ve recently discovered the profile completion feature so will enable that this month to try and increase engagement a bit further. I want to keep to our non intrusive privacy policy so this will all be optional and limited to member photo and some simple dog breed and numer of dogs fields. With what I have learned so far I have a better idea of what is going to work to attract registrations and there is also a credible amount of content. This month I will be starting to look into some paid promotion with the hope of hitting my next milestone of 250 members. I will share my findings and hopefully some helpful marketing tips next month.

Getting into prestigious institutions like IIT, and scoring a job by top global companies like Google, Facebook, etc., is a dream of almost all the aspiring engineering students in the country. But imagine how cool it would be if you get your dream offer for doing something that you're passionate about? Well, a 21-year-old engineering student in Mumbai just got lucky! © TOI Abdullah Khan, who's currently pursuing BE (Computer Science) from Shree LR Tiwari Engineering College in Mumbai, scored an offer from Google. How, you ask? Well, he takes part in many online programming competitions in his free time, and his profile apparently impressed the folks over at Google. So they ended up offering him a Rs. 1.2 Crore job at their HQ in London. According to the Times of India, Khan had to appear for a series of online interviews and a final screening at the London office before landing the job. He'll be working with Google's site reliability engineering team starting this September. His six-figure package at Google includes the base salary of Rs 54.5 lakh per annum, with 15 per cent bonus and stock options worth Rs. Rs 58.9 lakh over four years. In an email, Google officials mentioned that they had seen Khan's profile on the programming site, and they were looking for resources in locations across Europe. © Google Khan, on the other hand, noted that he wasn't expecting such an offer when he took part in these competitions. “I used to participate as it was fun. I did not even know that firms check programmers' profiles on such sites. I showed the email to my friend who knew someone who had received such an email in the past. I am looking forward to joining their team. It will be an amazing learning experience for me,” he said. What's more interesting is that he did his schooling in Saudi Arabia and moved to Mumbai only after class XII. He also tried getting into an IIT, but he couldn't manage to get in.

Holi means family, friends, colours, greasy food and bhaang. But Holi also means letting your hair down and having a good time with friends over rounds of food and merrymaking. Most Holi celebrations come with a house full of loud friends and family, a garden that looks like a science experiment gone wrong, and intoxicated bodies grooving to good music in the company of people who matter. So given that house parties are a norm during Holi, and no house party, especially one that's been kept on the occasion of Holi, can be successful without foot tapping, groovy music, we bring you a list of 10 songs that should definitely make it to your playlist this Holi. 1. Mungda - Total Dhamaal This revamped version of the good ol' 'Mungda' featuring dancing queen Helen, Sonakshi takes this song to another level and the newer beats are 10 times peppier! 2. Go Pagal - Jolly LLB 2 This one is just as crazy as the song's title, and we bet you can't stop but shake your leg to this song! 3. Chhote Chhote Peg - Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety This is definitely good to help set the mood when bhaang (or hard liquor) and good food is on your mind besides a lot of other things. 4. Aankh Maare - Simmba This one had to be on the list because it has a LOT of takers and is highly popular for any sort of party. 5. Yeah Baby Refix - Garry Sandhu The entire nation, regardless of their love for Punjabi music, could be seen shaking a leg to this one. This is truly too good to let go of. 6. Tere Te - Guru Randhawa Trust Guru Randhawa to never disappoint when it comes to delivering music that will get your feet tapping. This one by the singer is surely one such stellar number and deserves a place on your playlist. 7. She Move It Like - Badshah Have you guys checked out Badshah's latest single? It's got quite a ring to it honestly. 8. Chamma Chamma - Neha Kakkar, Tanishk, Ikka, Romy Yeah, we know it's a recreation of the old song by the same name from the movie 'China Gate', but Nora Fatehi is killing it in this song! 9. Expert Jatt - Nawab The beats of this song will get you hooked and grooving like no other. Also, can you tell the music of this song sounds similar to which other popular Punjabi song? 10. Putt Jatt Da - Diljit Dosanjh It's always a pleasure to lend an ear to Diljit crooning yet another one of his marvels. This peppy number became an instant hit for obvious reasons too.

I basically covered this in the first part of this article. Yes, no one likes getting rejected, but also literally no one can ever avoid rejection in life. The most important thing, though, is how someone reacts to the rejection. We're not talking about serious rejections in life today, but rather how fast some guys change colours as soon as they get rejected. All the self-proclaimed 'nice guys' who think that women don't like them because they're too nice and women always end up choosing the jerk, we're talking about them today. As a way to call out guys who just turn hostile after no reply from the girl, or just getting rejected, a Twitter account is here to talk about everything. The account called 'She Rates Dogs' posts a bunch of screenshots that they receive and rates the guys, which is usually in the minus, of course: 2/10 for the determination, -2/10 for the creepiness When you block him so he makes fake Instagram accounts to try to get you back (-1/10 dog) pic.twitter.com/5ENqsbkxV0 — SheRatesDogs (@SheRatesDogs) December 18, 2018 Do people not know what a left swipe on Tinder means?

When it comes to underrated powerhouse performers, Aparshakti Khurana is perhaps the leader of the pack. Right from 'Dangal' to 'Stree', he has done total justice to every role he played, and that perhaps is an understatement. Now, everyone knows that the boys of the Khurana Khandaan can act, however, the fact that they are also the most fashion-forward, is definitely noteworthy. Aparshakti just gave us all another reminder of the fact by walking the ramp as a 'Modern Maharaja'. Viral Bhayani The Lotus Makeup India Fashion Week just got over, and Aparshakti walked the ramp as a showstopper for designer Rohit Kamra. © Viral Bhayani The statement white sherwani with the bright coral red buttons make for an aesthetic that is unabashedly royal, while being modern and unusual at the same time. © Viral Bhayani We love the understated Khaki-beige trousers along with the super stylish leather Jooti-Brogue mix. © Viral Bhayani When it comes to accessories, the basic red pocket square suffices, but the bold eyewear is giving an edgy futuristic vibe to the outfit, which brings out an amazing contrast in the ensemble, given its traditional ethnic roots. © Viral Bhayani All we can say is, we're here for it. Bravo, Aparshakti!

After some rather disturbing and bizarre online challenges like the 'Momo Challenge, 'Kiki Challenge' or even the 'Tide-Pod' Challenge, we finally have a challenge that makes a lot of sense and is good for the world! The '#Trashtag Challenge' initiates a good Samaritan scenario and it's catching up quite steadfastly. © Instagram The challenge includes taking photos of dirty spaces/areas and then cleaning the entire area up and photographing the clean spot again. The ultimate goal is to post a 'before' and 'after' shot of a once dirty area to an absolutely spotless one, which will pose as an example of great civic sense. The psychology behind such challenges is that it follows a herd mentality. If an open platform such as social media is used to post such challenges, 90% of the time, chances are people are going to follow through and ape a particular trending act. So, needless to say, the #Trashtag Challenge has proven to be rather successful and people in a lot of countries are posting pictures of areas they have cleaned, on the internet. The challenge has somewhat made its way through India but not as aggressively as we had hoped. Currently, only Bangalore and Nagaland have seen this trend unfold. We do wish it comes to other states soon enough because dozens of places need that kind of intervention in this country, since the 'Swach Bharat Mission' has taken its own sweet time to deliver. © Twitter The #Trashtag Challenge has been around for a while now. It was first promoted by a company back in 2015 but it was revisited again this year with this initiative post on Instagram: Double TAP for more amazing facts&quotes ð . -ð¥ TAG a friend to show thisð¡ -ðTURN ON POST NOTIFICATION -âFOLLOW for more... - . . . . . #fact #facts #didyouknow #instafacts #factsdaily #trashtag #dailyfacts #factsð¯ #factz A post shared by TheScientistð (@thescientistfacts) on Mar 10, 2019 at 8:54am PDT Twitter, Reddit and Instagram users all around the world have willfully taken up the challenge and are producing some rather amazing transformational results, with cleaning up garbage-stacked areas around them.

The first time I saw it, I couldn't believe something could be so fantastic and utterly delicious. Like the smell of rain on a dry summer day! I was completely smitten and in love! And I still am. What am I talking about? Street Food, of course! © Pexels How different would our lives be if we did not have food? What would you have fantasized about in office? Or debated about? Or plan your whole day, nay, life around? India is famous for its varied spices and its culinary expertise all over the world. © Pexels India's diversity is omnipresent; it is legendary and flavoursome at the same time; be it its dialects, people or its marvellous food which changes from region to region. © Pexels If you want to experience India, you need to start from its humble beginnings, and what better way to explore it than food? India's deep-rooted traditions are echoed in its food, in its inimitable taste. What is unique about us is that this taste is readily available on the streets of our country.

Even thinking about it is making me hungry! What's the most intriguing part of street food other than the taste? The cost! Remember, it is always better to look for a good enough stall with acceptable hygiene when you opt to eat street food. Here is a list of some of the most popular street foods found across India: 1. The Mysore Masala Dosa: Origin: Mysore, Karnataka Masala Dosa is a delectable delicacy. To experience the heavenly taste of how fantastic a Masala Dosa can be you must try the Mysore Masala Dosa.

Sheer brilliance served on the lanes of majestic Mysore. View this post on Instagram Mysore masala dosa when in Mysore! Dosas in their home are different from what we eat in North. They are thicker and served mostly with chutney only.

Phuchka: Origin: Kolkata, West Bengal The pure joy of eating a phuchka is incomparable. Much tastier, snazzier and irresistible than its cousins: pani puri and gupchup, it comes in a bigger, crispier puri and is the undisputed king of the cuisine.

Garadu: Origin: Indore, Madhya Pradesh Nothing better to counter the bleak winters than some Garadu. This dish is a famous delicacy from Indore, Madhya Pradesh. You could never imagine that yams could be so delicious! View this post on Instagram The best part of the short Indore- Mandu- Ujjain- Maheshwar trip was undoubtedly the food. It may have to do with the fact that both of us are bhukkads of the worst or the best kind depending on your perspective. So sarafa bazar was our Disneyland! No wonder then that as I begin my onslaught of the trip pics (which fair warning may go on for a month) I decided to start from sarafa's treasures. This here is called "Garadu" which is a dish made from the root named Garadu which Google tells me is yam. This is deep fried so goes without saying is delicious. The chacha lovingly sprinkles his magic dust on it which is a mix of spices and his blood and sweat (not literally). This is perfect food on a cold night and breaks the sweet taste which predominantly coats ones tongue at Indore #garadu #sarafa #sarafabazar #indore #hindustankadil #indorestreetfood #foodies #foodphotography #streetfood #indianstreetfood #deepfried #bhukkad #mobilephotography #pixel2photography #pixel2 #google #nofilter #punetimes #pune_ig #india_ig #madhyapradeshtourism #madhyapradesh_ig #mpdiaries #indorediaries #indianfood #yam #thearchivalcollection #streetsofindia #hindustankadildekho A post shared by Sneha Karle (@snehadi) on Nov 15, 2018 at 10:40pm PST Madhya Pradesh is quite famous for its chaat but its ultimate crowning glory is in the garadu.

Each one is delicious in its own right. A perfect breakfast companion! Iconic Eatery: Maharaja OR Maharani, Kolkata 6.

It literally means burnt cheese, which is exactly what it is: a sweet cheese with a charred covering outside and a soft, delicate inside. Said to be one of Bhagawan Jagannath's favourite sweets, this sweetmeat is prepared by baking kneaded cottage cheese or cheese curd (made from curdled milk) and sugar with dry fruits and cardamom powder until the sugar caramelizes completely, giving a roasted, golden-brown covering to the final product. Hours and hours of baking turns humble cheese into a beatific, surreal dessert worth tasting (and worth the wait). As the adage goes, good things take time!

When you are in Odisha's famous tourist site Puri, you can not miss out on the opportunity to treat your sweet tooth. This Pilgrim Town has a lot to offer beyond beaches. The one sweet that Odisha is famous for - Chhena Poda, also known to be Lord Jagannath's favourite sweet and is often offered to him at the Puri Temple. Chhena Poda is made of cheese, sugar, cashew, cardamoms and raisins. All the items are mixed well and then wrapped in the leaves of the Sal tree and baked in a charcoal oven for several hours until it becomes red and the caramelised sugar brings out the distinct flavour of Chhena Poda. It is believed that the origin of Chhena Poda is in Nayagarh district of Odisha during the first half of 20th century. The lingering taste of burnt home-made cottage cheese and semolina combined with sugar syrup simply blows away your mind. Being sold in almost every nook and corner, this dish is simple, easy and absolutely delicious. . .

The Lakmé Fashion Week 2019 saw five days of groundbreaking designs. Here are two designers who tried to incorporate the ethnic Indian identity with the identity of the modern working man and created silhouettes that will work really well for the Summer of 2019. We're talking traditional khadi and prints that go along with it sewn into asymmetrical kurtas, dhotis and more. So, let's take some inspiration from Amrich by Urvashi Kaur and Padmaja, The Good Loom by GoCoop. Padmaja Krishnan's creations uses khadi and linen from Maheshwar-based NGO Gudi Mudi. GoCoop.com, an online marketplace which enables handloom cooperatives and artisans to connect with consumers, presented The Good Loom, a ready-to-wear menswear line of shirts, trousers, stoles and pyjamas. Here are ways you can incorporate a kurta in your everyday wear. 1. Monochrome It A monochrome set looks better than you think it will. Especially if the textured cotton has subtle patterns like this one. © Lakmé Fashion Week 2. Ethnic Shirts Ethnic shirts in traditional fabric is an upcoming trend and stands out as compared to de rigeuer clothing. © Lakmé Fashion Week 3. Layering It Well Layer your cotton kurta with a top shrug or buttoned over-layer and pair it with white sneakers. © Lakmé Fashion Week 4. Blazer Clash A blazer and a kurta although an unlikely combination, works really well. Just make sure they come from the same family of fabrics and hues. Exhibit A. © Lakmé Fashion Week 5. Scarf It A short kurta, a scarf with well tailored chinos is another combination you cannot go wrong with. © Lakmé Fashion Week

The Consumer Electronics Show (CES) is a wonderful time, where new technologies, gadgets and now flying taxis are unveiled at the annual tech conference. This is Bell's Nexus, a hybrid-electric propulsion flying taxi that can take off and land vertically. It uses six tilting ducted fans to take off and can be used from a rooftop or a launchpad. The best part is that one can hail this flying taxi from Uber's aerial service very soon. © Bell Helicopter "As space at the ground level becomes limited, we must solve transportation challenges in the vertical dimension -- and that's where Bell's on-demand mobility vision takes hold," Bell CEO Mitch Snyder said in a statement. "The industry has anticipated the reveal of our air taxi for some time, so Bell is very proud of this moment. We believe the design, taken with our strategic approach to building this infrastructure, will lead to the successful deployment of the Bell Nexus to the world,” he added. © Bell Helicopter Bell is one of the first aircraft manufacturers that is teaming up with Uber to provide flying taxis and has a plan to create a network of city-based flying taxis. At CES this week Bell showed off its first scaled concept and is aiming to have them in operation by the “mid-2020s,” said Scott Drennan, in an interview with The Verge. “This is not a toy,” Drennan told The Verge. “This is an aircraft you would feel safe and comfortable bringing your family into.” The Verge also reports that Bell won't have a working prototype until closer to its official launch.

RIP — RAMESH NEGI (@Rameshlippa) January 1, 2019 The actor and his family have been living in Canada for years now, so the last rites will be performed there only, as per his family. 2019 has truly begun on a very sad note for Bollywood as one of our finest legends has taken a journey to heaven. We sincerely hope his beautiful soul rests in peace.

When we talk about superheroes, we can't help but think of a few who've really proven their mettle and strength through some tested times. Wolverine definitely comes in the forefront and when we saw him in Logan last, we were literally heartbroken to learn that Wolverine would never be seen again or at least that what Hugh Jackman claimed back then. © Twitter But now, Google suggests that Wolverine will be coming back and making an appearance in the most awaited movie of 2019, 'Avengers: Endgame', and we're so stoked with this news, we're hoping it's pretty damn true! The news poured in when Google figured the most 'searched' part of the upcoming movie was 'famous Hugh Jackman films' and the result was obviously showing 'Avengers: Endgame'. Fancy that! © Walt Disney Studios Although we do hear that if Wolverine does present himself in the new Avengers, Hugh Jackman won't be playing him. That's absolutely uncool since we really can't imagine anyone else fitting into that role. So, if he needs to play the character one last time, it's no biggie right? Are you reading Hugh? But even so, the search engine still believes Jackman is part of Endgame regardless and has put all its hopes and desires into making that happen, and we're definitely rooting for the same. Well, why shouldn't we? Since Fox and Disney are heading for a merger anyway, the possibility of Wolverine, Deadpool and X-Men being a part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe is very probable indeed! © Twitter Are you lost and confused? Well, why don't you open your favourite search engine and type 'Hugh Jackman' and see what comes up? Or we'll show it you. Here's a screenshot! © MensXP Sigh! This is what a good year is made up of and we really hope this is true!

The weekend has already picked up the pace, and we're inching towards 2019 oh-so rapidly! It's true we don't have a clue where 2018 went, because wasn't it only March the last time we checked? Guess we have got to keep up now that the New Year is right around the corner, and what better to do it than embrace the holiday/New Year cheer that comes with all the sloshed parties in the company of friends and family? If you agree to what we just proposed, and are all set to welcome the upcoming New Year with open arms, what could be better than throwing a house party to celebrate with friends? While food and booze are a given, the major factor that could make or break your party are the songs, so how about we helped you with those? Check out these 10 party numbers that most definitely have to be on your playlist for that New Year house party you have in mind: 1. Coca Cola Tu One of Tony Kakkar's major hits this year, 'Coca Cola Tu' was a cracker hit, and a raging party number throughout 2018, but you have to groove to it with your girlfriend on New Year's eve too. 2. Dilbar You simply do NOT need to be told why this blew the roof off, do you? One of the best revival songs of the year, and we personally love it! 3. Tere Naal Nachna There might not be much to say about the movie 'Nawabzaade' but this song from the movie sure as hell had all the parties rockin'! 4. Tere Te Trust Guru Randhawa to never disappoint when it comes to delivering music that will get your feet tapping. This latest one by the singer is surely one such stellar number. 5. Putt Jatt Da It's always a pleasure to lend an ear to Diljit crooning to yet another of his marvels. This peppy number became an instant hit for obvious reasons too. 6. Aankh Marey Pretty much the latest one that's topping chartbusters in the country at the moment, the remix honestly makes for a great number to shake a leg to! 7. Expert Jatt The beats of this song will get you hooked and grooving like no other. Also, can you tell the music of this song sounds similar to which other popular Punjabi song? 8. Tareefan QARAN and Badshah totally rocked the parties and dance floors with this one. Another Bollywood number making it to the list, we see. 9. Yeah Baby Refix The entire nation, regardless of their love for Punjabi music could be seen shaking a leg to this one. This was truly too good. 10. Downtown Yet another one by Guru Randhawa, but can you really blame us for loving this guy and his music so much? He seems to possess a formula to create fiery bops!

Don't we just love our family WhatsApp groups? Here's an accurate depiction of what goes on in them.

India's biggest carnival for pets, Pet Fed, just took place in Bengaluru and Delhi, and is scheduled to take place in Mumbai on 19th and 20th January. An essentially one of a kind event, Pet Fed is a gathering of pets and pet lovers spread across 3 acres of lush green land. While pet owners finally had an event exclusively dedicated to their pooches, pet lovers also got an event where they could spend some quality time with thousands of dogs, cats, and other animals. Dino Morea, who has always been surrounded by animals since his childhood and is a noted animal lover, is the ambassador for the event, and is also an investor. © Pet Fed © Pet Fed © Pet Fed Dino is a proud father of two fur-babies - a labrador named Maximus and an Indie named Ganpat. While they form an extremely important part of his personal life, he says he wants to do more. "I will never understand people who don't love animals. Their love is unconditional, and the purest form of love. Some people are just chemically imbalanced in their brain I guess. What else explains cruelty to dogs and other animals?", he says.

"Not only is it an extremely healthy initiative for pets and pet-related awareness overall, it can give rise to a lot of other business verticals as well, that will generate employment and make pets more inclusive in the commercial space." © Pet Fed © Pet Fed © Pet Fed Dino says it's extremely important for events like Pet Fed to be organized in India, as they help people understand the beauty and innocence of animals. "If one attends an event like this one where they get to spend time with so many animals, they will surely get closer to animals. Yes, it's a slow process and an uphill task, but every day can be a new start. Animals are beautiful and they help us become better human beings", he asserts. © Pet Fed © Pet Fed (Yes, you can have an iguana as a pet too!) Pet Fed is scheduled to take place in Mumbai, at MMRDA, BKC, on 19th and 20th January. One can look forward to a lot of exciting things there, such as discovering dog breeds, dog fashion show, security dog show, adoption camps, and even a special cat zone. For tickets, click here

In this fast-paced world of having cereal or just coffee for breakfast and grabbing lunch from Subway, we are missing out on a lot of goodness which good old vegetables have to offer. International dietary guidelines recommend consuming 5-6 servings of vegetables daily for good health, however, the majority is struggling to get even one. But don`t worry, we've got you covered with these easy to eat vegetables along with the benefits it provides, which will make you love eating vegetables again: 1. Tomatoes © Pixabay Scientifically a fruit and not a vegetable, tomatoes are rich in potassium and lycopene (a powerful antioxidant) which is considered good for prostate health. Lycopene absorption is enhanced even more when you cook tomatoes. Processed tomato products such as soups, ketchup have even more lycopene bioavailability than raw tomatoes. I'm not telling you to binge on ketchup and processed soups here but adding raw tomatoes in your daily diet isn`t a bad idea either. Tomatoes have 95% of water by weight which makes it a great food for the calorie conscious and helps in hydrating as well. 2. Potatoes © Pixabay I know this will raise many eyebrows but please calm down. Potatoes aren't the evil source that makes you gain fat. It`s the fries and deep fried chips you start associating them with, giving it a bad name. These products become harmful because of an excess amount of oil used for making high-fat sauces, the high amount of salt and the processing. However, having mashed/baked/roasted potatoes or making a sandwich using potatoes will only give you some good carbohydrates. Contrary to popular belief, potatoes have almost no fat or 0.1gm fat/100gm. Now, tell me how are they fattening? Potatoes are also a great source of Vitamin B6 and Potassium. In fact, they are one of the top sources of Potassium. It is recommended for an adult to take around 4000mg of Potassium a day. And 100gm of potato (1 large sized potato) provides approx 10% of it. Potassium works to balance Sodium which we consume in excess in the modern world. A potassium rich diet is also proven to lower blood pressure, hypertension and reduced risk of stroke. 3. Broccoli © Pixabay There`s a reason why broccoli is a highly valued vegetable in fitness, sports and bodybuilding circles. Broccoli or other cruciferous vegetables such as cauliflower, cabbage contain antioxidant and anticarcinogenic compounds. Glucosinolates present in broccoli are known to prevent certain types of cancers. Apart from that, broccoli contains high levels of flavonoids (beneficial for health) and indoles which also help to reduce higher level of estrogen in men. Also, the body can effectively absorb half of the calcium present in broccoli. This might interest many vegans out there. 4. Spinach © Pixabay There`s a reason why Popeye loved it. Also called as a superfood by many, spinach can be eaten raw, boiled or used in any dish. Let me give you some ideas– Palak Paneer, Mushroom Palak, Dal Palak, Palak Matar and Palak Aloo are some of the examples of dishes that can be made. Forget about taking a Vitamin A supplement ever if you consume spinach regularly in your diet. Apart from Vitamin A, spinach is also a rich source of Iron and Vitamin K1 (plant-based).Vitamin K helps in maintaining your bone health and prevents the stiffening of arteries. Adequate Vitamin K consumption also ensures that the calcium you are eating through diet or supplements (quite common) goes to the bones and not to blood vessels. Cooked spinach has 3-4 times more Vitamin K than its raw state. So, don't hesitate to try out the dishes I mentioned above. Some people propagate spinach to be a good source of calcium, however, science disagrees since only about 5% of the calcium available in spinach is absorbed by the human body.
