The Indian squad for the World Cup 2019 has been announced in recent times and a lot of debate is taking place on the matter of exclusion of Rishabh Pant and Ambati Rayudu from the team.
Now the Indian captain Virat Kohli has responded on this matter in an interview to India Today. According to him, he and the team management are happy with the 15-member team that they have got as it is a balanced team because every player seems to be in good condition. He did give a hint that the team was selected after his approval only.
Virat also talked about the times when MS Dhoni supported him and showed confidence in him. Kohli said that Dhoni had the option of giving chances to other players after the former joined the team but he supported him.
Virat further added that he might have taken benefit of the chances that he got but still getting Dhoni’s support was quite necessary.
As per the Indian skipper, he was given the chance to bat at number 3 by Dhoni which is certainly a big thing because not many young batsmen get the chance of batting at that position.
Virat has scored 8743 runs with an average of 63.35 while batting at number 3 and it includes 34 centuries and 39 half-centuries. His strike rate is 94.14 and his highest score (183) of ODI has also been scored at the same position.
Virat also praised Dhoni as he said that the latter knows the game inside-out and there is hardly anyone who can read the game better than him. Kohli also stated that for making any strategy, he has discussions with Dhoni and Rohit Sharma.
We offer our best wishes to the Indian team for the World Cup 2019.
Ajay Devgn is presently busy in the promotions of his upcoming film “De De Pyaar De” and although the trailer was liked by movie buffs, the flick is making headlines for some wrong reasons as well.
People have also targeted Ajay and slammed him for working with Alok Nath as the latter has been accused of raping and molesting a writer Vinta Nanda. A case has already been registered against Alok Nath and he has been granted an anticipatory bail by the court.
The actual incident took place years ago but Vinta Nanda got the courage to speak up only after the #MeToo movement started. Ever since she spoke against Alok Nath, almost everyone from the industry made distance from the actor and when the trailer of “De De Pyaar De” was released, viewers got very angry after seeing Alok Nath in the movie.
Actress Tanushree Dutta who has accused Nana Patekar of s*xually abusing her has criticised Ajay Devgn for helping Alok Nath in making a comeback in Bollywood. Many people including Tanushree are saying that the scenes of the film in which Alok Nath has acted could have been re-shot with another actor.
Ajay has now talked about these allegations and has also made it clear that he is completely in support of #MeToo movement. According to him, he respects every single woman and would not support anything wrong happening to a woman, adding that his stand has been the same from the very beginning of the movement.
On the matter of re-shooting of the scenes, he said that the scenes were shot before the allegations were made (October 2018) and it was almost impossible to re-shoot the portions which were shot at various locations and included 10 actors as all the actors including him had started working on different projects by that time.
He further added that the decision of re-shooting the portions involving Alok Nath would have meant a huge loss for the producers. The actor asked in the official statement as to why he is being singled out and called insensitive despite the fact that the decision to re-shoot or not would have been a joint decision (including the makers) and not only his choice. He once again showed his support for #MeToo movement and rejected all the allegations that have been levied against him calling him insensitive.

School was the best time to fall in love I believe. Everything is so pure and so fresh. Dreaming about your crush while a boring history class plays out, or holding hands beneath the desks when a class going on. Catching glimpses of your crush in the recess while he played football or stealing glances of your crush when she used to come to school in her ponytail looking dangerously cute. I think we all had a romantic side to us while growing up but this innocence gets lost somewhere. This video will remind you just of that time.
School crushes are hard to forget and what happens when you actually get a chance with them? It is a dream come true. Have a look at this super cute video of a girl who finds her childhood crush on Tinder. How they match, their conversation takes place and if they get a chance for their own happy ever after.
Varun Dhawan and Alia Bhatt starrer “Kalank” has not been received by the audiences in the manner in which the makers would have expected. What’s more, the social media is also flooded with memes and jokes on the movie that further narrate the tale of its failure.
The movie got released on 17th April, 2019, and became the biggest opener of the year with a massive collection of Rs 21.60 crore. It was obviously expected to make a grand opening due to its cast and also because of the fact that it was releasing on a holiday as it was Mahavir Jayanti on that day.
Not to forget to mention, huge hype was created before the release of the flick but it was expected that on the second day, the collections would come down for its being a working weekday. However, the dip in the earnings on Thursday is quite substantial and far more than what had been expected.
“Kalank” has made a collection of Rs 11.45 crore on its second day which brings the total to Rs 33.05 crore.
Day 1 – Rs 21.60 crore
Day 2 – Rs 11.45 crore
Total – Rs 33.05 crore
Here’s what trade analyst Taran Adarsh tweeted, “#Kalank has a fall on Day 2… A decline was on the cards, but the drop is much higher than expected… Will be interesting to see how it fares on Day 3 [#GoodFriday]… Wed 21.60 cr, Thu 11.45 cr. Total: ₹ 33.05 cr. India biz.”

The film is set in the pre-independence era of 1940s and has brought back two veteran superstars Sanjay Dutt and Madhuri Dixit together on the big screen after a long time. Other than these, the movie also stars Sonakshi Sinha and Aditya Roy Kapur in important roles.
It will be interesting to see how the movie performs on the third day which is also a holiday, i.e., Good Friday.
There is no denying the fact that Shah Rukh Khan is one of the biggest stars of the world but things are not going his way as far as his movies are concerned.
His last released “Zero” fell flat at the box-office which was a huge setback for King Khan as he expected a lot from this flick. This sci-fi entertainer was made in a budget of nearly Rs. 200 crore but it was able to earn only Rs. 90 crore.
Presently, SRK is in China’s Beijing for attending the 9th Beijing International Film Festival as his “Zero” will be shown as the closing movie of the festival. For the first time, he has talked about the failure of Zero while giving an interview to a Chinese portal.
According to Shah Rukh, he is not sure as to how the Chinese viewers will react to the film as the audiences back home didn’t like it much. He further says that may be it is he who has made the wrong movie or has not done the storytelling in the right manner.
The “Raees” actor goes on to say that it feels bad when he is not able to make his fans happy with his movies, especially when he has been working on a project for three long years. He also adds that he doesn’t want to see the flick but he is going to watch it after three months now and it is pretty important for him so that he can understand what went wrong.
SRK has also walked out of Rakesh Sharma biopic and he has made it clear that he has no projects as of now. He is listening to scripts but will take a decision most probably by June.
