The cricketers have become quite fond of Instagram live sessions as it is one of the best ways to entertain themselves and also their fans amidst the coronavirus pandemic when everybody is locked inside their houses. Recently, Rohit Sharma and David Warner chatted live and they talked on many important issues related to coronavirus, IPL 2020, etc. They also shared their opinions in regard to the possibility of the T20 World Cup taking place as per its schedule.
Rohit also talked about David Warner’s stint at TikTok video platform. He told Warner that he is doing pretty good and praised him for entertaining people and bringing smile on everybody’s face in these tough times. Warner also responded by saying that he will be very happy to improve the mood of others in such times when everybody is in tension.
David Warner has earned the nickname of part-time TikToker as he has been very active on the video platform. He is regularly posting clips and some of his videos also feature his wife and daughters.
Another cricketer who is also very active on TikTok is Yuzvendra Chahal, the Indian spinner, and in a couple of his videos, his parents were also seen. However, Rohit Sharma poked fun at Yuzi some time ago and asked whether he doesn’t feel ashamed as he is making his father dance in the video. The Indian skipper Virat Kohli called Yuzvendra Chahal clown during a live Instagram session with AB de Villiers.
Rohit Sharma is the skipper of the IPL team Mumbai Indians while David Warner would have led Sunrisers Hyderabad in the thirteenth edition of the league.
If we talk about the coronavirus outbreak all over the world, the number of confirmed cases is around 39 lakhs while the number of people who have lost their lives is more than 2.70 lakhs.
MS Dhoni has been one of the most successful captains of India as under his leadership, the Indian team has won three ICC trophies and what makes him different from other is his cool attitude. The calm and cool manner in which he used lead the team earned him the nickname – Captain Cool.
However, the Captain Cool also faced tough times such as during the 2014 New Zealand tour in which the Indian team missed the chance of leveling the two-match test series. Team India was already going through a rough phase in the longer format especially since 2011 when England and Australia whitewashed the Indian squad.
If we talk about the New Zealand tour, the first test match was won by New Zealand but in the second test match, India had a pretty good chance to win the match as the Kiwis were 94/5 in the second innings but then the skipper of that time, Brendon McCullum went on to score a triple century to save his team from defeat and the match was drawn.
Recalling the same match, Indian pacer Mohammed Shami shared an incident with Manoj Tiwary during a live Instagram session. Shami revealed how Captain Cool lost his cool when he didn’t bowl properly. Shami told that in the second innings, the Indian bowlers were pretty frustrated as Brendon McCullum was not making any mistake and he was not getting out, however he was dropped off at the score of 14 by Virat Kohli.
Shami said that he was also frustrated as in the over before lunch, a batsman edged but the catch was dropped. He further added that in the final delivery before lunch, he bowled a bouncer which went even above Dhoni’s head.
Shami further revealed that while returning to the dressing room when Mahi asked him why he didn’t bowl the last delivery properly, he didn’t give a satisfactory answer and it made Dhoni a little angry. Shami added that Captain Cool talked to him in a strict tone and asked him not to try to make a fool of him. Dhoni further said that he has witnessed many players come and go, adding that he is Shami’s senior as well as captain.
It seems that Mahi also loses his cool sometimes. Presently, Dhoni has been out of the cricketing circuits for quite a long time now as he last played for India in the 2019 ICC World Cup.
Nothing can be said about Dhoni’s return in the Indian squad as of now and the coronavirus pandemic has also stopped all the cricketing events including the IPL 2020.
The IPL 2020 has also suffered a lot due to the coronavirus pandemic as it was supposed to start from March 29 but now it has been postponed indefinitely. While the fans of MS Dhoni were waiting eagerly to see their favourite cricketer on the field after a long time, the fans of the IPL team Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) were hoping to see their team win the IPL title for the first time.
Undoubtedly, RCB has one of the strongest batting line-up with Virat Kohli and AB de Villiers in the squad but it has never been able to win the title even once in the last 12 years. RCB’s poor performance has not only troubled its players and fans but the players of other teams as well.
Recently during an Instagram live session, Australian cricketer David Warner asks Indian cricketer Rohit Sharma why RCB is not able to win the title. To this, Rohit Sharma replies in a straight-forward manner and says that he doesn’t know. The Mumbai Indians skipper also states that it is unfortunate but the batting line-up of RCB is unreal and the team meeting of his team goes for around a couple of hours before a match with RCB, as they have to plan more for the Bangalore team.
David Warner is also of the opinion that RCB is having the best team in the league for around 10 years now. Rohit Sharma opines that in this season, RCB has a balanced team.

The chances of the IPL 2020 taking place this year seem bleak as the T20 World Cup is also going to take place later in the year. However, there are also reports that the BCCI is looking forward to organise the IPL 2020 in the month of September before the T20 World Cup.
Let’s wait and watch how things get unfold in the future! For the time being, please stay at home and maintain social distancing to stay safe.
Irrfan Khan was not just a talented actor but also a great human being who was an epitome of simplicity and humility. Irrfan took his last breath on 29 April 2020 after fighting a long battle with a rare form of cancer. He was one of the most versatile actors of Bollywood who had the ability of playing any type of role, whether negative, comedy or lead one, with extreme perfection.
The Bollywood actress Deepika Padukone has also worked with Irrfan in movie “Piku” and on the fifth anniversary of the flick, the Mastani of the Hindi film industry remembered Irrfan with a throwback video.
In the video which she shared on Instagram, they both can be seen playing the game of lawn tennis. The caption that Deepika wrote was, “Please come back”.
Deepika has also written a poem in memory of Irrfan, from a very popular song, “Lamhe Guzar gaye”. Here is the video:
“Piku” also starred the legendary actor Amitabh Bachchan and Irrfan’s chemistry with the former was also loved by audiences as well. Big B also took to Instagram to post a still from “Piku” along with a still from his movie “Khuda Gawah” in which he worked with actress Sridevi who also departed from this world. On 8th May, “Khuda Gawah” completed 28 years while “Piku” completed 5 years.
Amitabh Bachchan remembered both the stars with whom he worked and the caption that he wrote was, “28 years of KHUDA GAWAH .. 5 years of PIKU .. today 8th May .. and in remembrance of the two that have left us”.
There is no denying the fact that Irrfan will be missed a lot by his fans. The last movie in which Irrfan acted was “Angrezi Medium” and it has been released on Disney Hotstar as theater release could not be possible in the time of the coronavirus pandemic.

Bollywood actor Aamir Khan is also known as Mr. Perfectionist of the film industry because he gives 100 percent while preparing for a role and ensures that he completely gets into the skin of the character. Aamir Khan has a huge fan following and he is also known for breaking records on the box-office.
If you remember, it was Aamir Khan’s “Ghajini” which was the first movie to cross the Rs. 100 crore mark. In “Ghajini”, Aamir worked with Asin and Jiah Khan and the film was a remake of a south flick. Aamir Khan starrer “3 Idiots” was the first movie to cross the Rs. 200 crore mark and in this movie, he worked with Sharman Joshi, R Madhavan and Kareena Kapoor Khan. Aamir Khan once again took the box-office by storm in 2014 with his movie “PK” in which he acted along with Anushka Sharma, the film went on to cross the Rs. 300 crore mark and this happened for the first time in India.
There are many superstars in Bollywood but none of them was able to come up with a movie which could break the record of “PK”. And then SS Rajamouli came up with Prabhas starrer “Baahubali” and the first part of the series earned Rs. 518.94 crore in the Indian languages and it broke all the records of Aamir Khan.
In 2018, before the release of his movie “Thugs of Hindostan”, Aamir appeared on the talk show, Koffee With Karan which is hosted by director-producer Karan Johar. KJo asked Aamir whether he is planning to surpass the earnings of “Baahubali” with “Thugs of Hindostan”. In reply, the “Dil Chahta Hai” actor said that he is very nervous for this film as this is the first time he is working in a completely mainstream movie otherwise he has mostly worked in flicks which are either based on any concept or they give a social message to public.
Watch the video from 3:11 to see Aamir’s reaction:
The star cast of “Thugs of Hindostan” included some pretty big names of Bollywood, such as Amitabh Bachchan, Katrina Kaif along with Aamir but the movie was a big disaster. It was made on a budget of around Rs. 220 crore but was not even able to cross the Rs. 150 crore mark.
Aamir Khan will be seen next in “Laal Singh Chaddha” which is the remake of a Hollywood movie “Forrest Gump” that starred Tom Hanks.
It will be interesting to see which movie and which actor will be able to break the record of “Baahubali”. Who do you think has the ability to do it?
It is true that to become a good cook, a person needs to be open to experimentation and due to this lockdown period, people have ample time to do experiments in cooking. However there still has to be a limit and people should not try such things which hurt the emotions of other people.
Some time ago, we heard about Maggi with Makke Ki Roti, Maggi with milk, Kurkure milkshake, Maggi with oranges, dosa with ice cream, etc. These weird combinations made us sad and some even expressed their desire to leave mother Earth but now we are going to tell you about a dish which will make you wonder how a person can think of it at the first place.
Samosa has been a part of lives of Indians for quite a long time and people love to eat it a lot as it is very delicious, cheap and easily available as well. Many of us find it difficult to imagine their loving Samosa without the lip-smacking potato filling but here is one person who has made Samosa with Oreo ice cream stuffed in it. Yes, you read it right!
First of all, take a look at the pics of this alien Samosa:
Samosa with Oreo ice cream is a very weird combination which did not go well with a number of Indian Twitterati and they went berserk over the person for committing such a heinous crime. Here are some of the selected reactions:
Making new dishes while sitting at home is a cool way to pass time during lockdown but we are sure that many of us can’t even think of such a bizarre combination. There is very high probability that after watching this unusual Samosa, people will crave more for the original Samosa with the mouth-watering potato stuffing.
We request our readers to stay at home in order to keep themselves safe from coronavirus. Also do share with us if you or someone from your acquaintance also tried any weird combinations like this.
