2. Paan Singh Tomar

How can we miss a movie in which Irrfan Khan stunned everyone with his acting and also got the National Film Awards for Best Actor for the role that he played…. The story is based on the real-life Indian soldier who was an athlete and had won a gold medal in the National Games but due to circumstances, he was forced to rebel against the government and the system.

3. Piku

This movie showed us that Irrfan Khan who was known for intense roles is equally comfortable in doing comedy as well. Moreover, “Piku” is quite special as it also stars the legendary actor Amitabh Bachchan along with Deepika Padukone.

The movie depicts a love story but of different type as it started over lunchbox when a young wife sends a note for her husband with tasty dishes but due to some misunderstanding, the lunchbox is delivered to an old man who is about to retire.

7. Maqbool

The film is directed by Vishal Bharadwaj and what is commendable on the part of Irrfan Khan is that he made his presence strongly felt despite the fact that the flick also starred some senior actors such as Pankaj Kapoor, Om Puri and Naseeruddin Shah.

8. The Warrior

Directed by Asif Kapadia, this 2001 released movie is a must watch because it stopped Irrfan Khan from leaving acting. The actor was a little upset at that time as he was not getting any good roles in films and he was quite bored with working in TV shows.

Shah Rukh Discloses How He Got Six Pack Abs In Om Shanti Om & It Has A Connection With Aryan

Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan is one of the most loved actors of the film industry and there is no denying the fact that his charm works on every generation. He did many negative roles in the beginning of his career but later he shifted to romantic roles which he played so well that his fans started calling him King of Romance. Despite the fact that everything was going pretty well for him, in the year 2007 he shocked everyone when he appeared with six pack abs in the song “Dard-e-Disco” of his movie “Om Shanti Om”.

SRK was in his early forties at that time and everyone was confused as to why the “Baazigar” actor took this step when he was already such a big star. In an episode of Koffee With Karan, Shah Rukh disclosed that the real reason behind SRK’s efforts to get a chiseled body was his son Aryan. The “Fan” actor revealed that Aryan was nine years of age at that time and he beat up a young girl because she called SRK fat. Shah Rukh told that first the girl called the actor a**hole but Aryan didn’t react and then she said that he looked ugly in quiz show Kaun Banega Crorepati and still Aryan did not give any reaction. However, Aryan was not able to control when she called SRK fat and he kicked the little girl.

SRK further added that he talked to his son as the actor was a little angry with him. But Aryan told him that the fault is not of the girl but of his father instead as he is fat. Aryan explained that he didn’t react when she called Shah Rukh a**hole as he knew that his father is cool, Aryan didn’t react when she called the superstar ugly because he knew that his father is handsome. However, Aryan got out of control when she called his father fat because as per him, he was fat.

Shah Rukh being a great father decided to pacify his son and worked hard to get those six pack abs and after seven years, he showed his eight pack abs in the movie “Happy New Year”.

Shah Rukh Khan’s last movie was “Zero” which was a flop and since then, SRK has not signed any project. His fans are waiting eagerly to find out when they will be able to see him on the big screen again. Let’s see when the actor will make an announcement in this regard!

“Bahar Bindaas Ghumte Ho Phir Yeh Toh Hona He Tha,” Jadeja Slams People Breaking Lockdown Rules

The Indian government imposed complete lockdown for 21 days from March 25 after there was a huge surge in the number of coronavirus infected patients and now the lockdown has been extended further till May 3. There is no doubt that the situation can be called under control in India as far as the COVID-19 pandemic is concerned but the citizens still need to follow the lockdown rules properly. Nevertheless, it is indeed very sad to know that there are some people who are breaking the rules on a regular basis despite the fact that the government as well as many sports and movie celebs are urging Indians to adhere to the rules.

Indian cricketer Ravindra Jadeja also took to social media recently and gave a message to those who are breaking the lockdown rules. He posted a video from an IPL match that was played between Mumbai Indians and Gujarat Lions and at that time, Jadeja used to play for Gujarat Lions.

In the video, Mumbai Indians player Jasprit Bumrah was batting and he played the shot towards the point region on the bowling of Irfan Pathan. When the batsmen were running between the wickets, Jadeja picked the ball and threw it at the non-striker’s end. It was a direct hit but the field umpire had some doubts so the appeal was transferred to the third umpire who had no problem in declaring Bumrah out as he was very far from the crease. The video also showed how Jadeja once again hit the stumps to get rid of Lasith Malinga on the last ball and the match went to super-over.

With this video, Jadeja wrote the caption, “Bahar bindaas gumthe ho. Mast meh time pass karthe ho, jab aapko ghar pe rahena chahiye. Phir yeh toh hona he tha 😉  #Staystaysafe #runoutmathona”.

It loosely translates to, “You roam carelessly outside, passing your time when you need to be at home; then it was supposed to happen.”

Here is the video:

Ravindra Jadeja is one of the best fielders presently and most of the times he hits the stumps because of which the batsmen don’t like to take risk when the shot is played towards him.

Many cricketers have requested people to stay at home but still the number of persons who have lost their lives due to coronavirus has crossed the 1000 mark while the number of infected cases is more than 31K.

Stay at home, stay safe!
