As the video got controversial, the actor deleted it shortly and now in an interview with Anupama Chopra, he explained the reason behind doing so.
In regard to the allegation that the video promoted domestic violence, Kartik said that it can’t be true because if it had been the case, his sister and mother would have objected. He revealed that the video was seen by his mother and sister both before it was uploaded and also clarified that he deleted it because it hurt sentiments of few people.
When he was asked a question about his flicks “Pyaar Ka Punchnama”, “Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety”, “Pati Patni Aur Woh” that have been termed as insulting to women community, Kartik said that he chooses a movie based on the script and the vision of the director.
Earlier, female playback singer Sona Mohapatra slammed him for the video and also shared a lengthy post in which she criticised him for his selection of movies and for throwing his sister from the balcony just because he didn’t like food cooked by her. She wrote that the video is a tight slap on the faces of those women who are bound to stay at home and bear domestic violence in the lockdown period.
Many Bollywood actors have become pretty active on social media networks during this lockdown period as they are also left with no option other than sitting inside their houses in order to save themselves from the coronavirus pandemic.
Actor Arjun Kapoor who is already known for his witty yet funny posts and comments on the social media handles has once again made many people laugh by sharing a hilarious video. However while sharing the clip, he also poked fun at the cricket lovers and asked the Indian cricket team skipper Virat Kohli whether he also relates to it.
Talking about the video, it shows a guy bowling, batting and fielding all by himself as he is not able to go out and play cricket on the ground with other players. It will surely bring a smile on your face but will make cricket lovers upset as it perfectly depicts their situation amid lockdown.
The caption that Arjun Kapoor wrote while sharing the video read,
While some celebs including Katrina Kaif responded in affirmation, Virat Kohli is yet to react on this post.
Check out Katrina Kaif’s reaction to the video posted by Arjun Kapoor:
Earlier, actress Anushka Sharma posted a funny video of her hubby Virat Kohli in which he is seen walking like a wild creature and shouting in a weird manner. The “Sultan” actress calls Virat a dinosaur and the video has been loved a lot by their fans.
While cricketers have been confined to their houses and all the sporting events have been cancelled or postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic, Bollywood is also facing a lot of problems as the release of many movies has been postponed and shooting of a number of flicks has been stalled.
Indian cricketer Robin Uthappa is known for his hard-hitting batting style and has played some memorable innings for the nation. He was also a part of the Indian team which won the T20 World Cup 2007 under the captaincy of MS Dhoni.
Robin Uthappa is not a bowler but he has bowled three balls in his international career; out of three, two balls were bowled in ODIs and one in a T20 match against Pakistan in the T20 World Cup 2007. The match was played at Durban, South Africa, and batting first, India managed to score 141 for the loss of 9 wickets so Pakistan had to score 142 to win the match. However, the Pakistani team was not able to cross the figure of 141 and the match went into bowl-out.
While the Pakistani bowlers weren’t able to hit the stumps even once, the Indian bowlers hit the stumps all the three times and India won the bowl-out by 3-0. It was Robin who bowled the third ball and recently, he revealed that it was Dhoni’s smartness that helped the bowlers in hitting the stumps.
During a podcast with New Zealand cricketer Ish Sodhi, Robin Uthappa revealed that while Pakistani wicketkeeper Kamran Akmal stood at the usual location of a wicketkeeper, MS Dhoni acted smart and sat right behind the wicket. Robin said that Dhoni made it easy for the bowlers as they only had to target Dhoni for hitting the stumps and that is what the bowlers did and India won the match.
In the match which was the first one to be won by the Indian team under Dhoni’s captaincy, Robin Uthappa scored a half century in 39 balls but the Player Of The Match was given to Mohammad Asif as he took four wickets.
Robin Uthappa plays for Kerala in the domestic cricket while in the IPL, he is a part of Rajasthan Royals (RR).
The Indian player MS Dhoni is out of the cricketing circuits for a long time now and his fans are very eager to find out whether he will play in the T20 World Cup 2020 or not. Dhoni who is the skipper of the IPL team Chennai Super Kings (CSK) played last for India in the semi-finals of 2019 ICC World Cup which India lost to New Zealand. Since then, Dhoni has made himself unavailable for selection and in this period, he has served the Indian Army for some time as well as went on vacations with his family, relatives and friends.
The fans of Dhoni were quite eager to see him back on the field in the IPL 2020 but that has been postponed indefinitely due to the coronavirus outbreak and it is also not confirmed whether BCCI will organise it this year or not. A lot of discussion has taken place over Dhoni’s retirement or his comeback in the Indian squad and many former cricketers have also given their opinion on this matter but Mahi has remained completely mum over it.
Recently, the official Twitter handle of Chennai Super Kings (CSK) shared a video in which MS Dhoni is seen walking out from a gate and going towards the bus. The former Indian skipper is followed by Suresh Raina who has also been a part of CSK since 2008. Dhoni is seen responding to the salute of the guard and he raised grapes towards the fans who shouted loudly after seeing him.
The caption written by the Twitter handle is, “The sweet King’s here, simply rock on!”
As the video was posted online, it got viral and till the article was written, it had been liked for more than 11K times and retweeted for over 1000 times.
Fans loved the gesture of Dhoni towards the guard and this is how Twitter users reacted:
The Indian government has given some considerable relaxations in the fourth phase of the lockdown including the permission of opening the stadiums. However, the spectators won’t be allowed inside the stadium so the sporting events have to be conducted within the closed doors. The players will definitely like to step on the field and start practicing at least if not playing matches.
The Indian cricketers must also be looking forward to training sessions considering the fact that the T20 World Cup will be taking place this year and they don’t want to miss the chance of winning it. The Indian skipper Virat Kohli is spending his lockdown with his wife Anushka Sharma and they both are quite active on social media as well.
While Virat has been conducting or taking part in the Instagram live chat sessions, Anushka Sharma recently shared a video in which she showed how they both are having fun and making the most of the time that they have got during lockdown in view of the fact that the couple gets very less quality time to spend together duo to their busy schedules.
Talking about the video, Virat Kohli is seen walking like a wild creature and then he looks towards Anushka and shouts in a weird manner.
The caption that the “PK” actress wrote read, “I spotted …. A Dinosaur on the loose” with dinosaur and laughing emojis.
The video has been loved by the fans as many of them found Virat a very cute dinosaur.
A couple of days ago, during a live chat with Sunil Chettri, the Indian football team skipper, Virat revealed that has taught him the importance of companionship and before meeting her, he was very self-centered.
Kohli was supposed to lead Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in the Indian Premier League 2020 but it has also been postponed indefinitely like other sporting events on account of the coronavirus outbreak. A BCCI official has recently made it clear that the board is not thinking of organising the IPL 2020 at the moment as a lot of travelling takes place during the tournament and the restrictions on flights are still in place.
Almost every person in the world chalks out some plans or goals which he wants to achieve in a particular time period or in a year. You also must have planned some goals to achieve or accomplish in the year 2020 but it seems to have turned out to be the worst year of our lives. This is a time when everyone is scared, shocked and confused as far as their future is concerned because the coronavirus pandemic has not only taken many lives but destroyed the economies of many nations of the world as well.
More than 323K people have lost their lives to this disease and around 49 lakhs have registered as coronavirus infected patients. What makes this disease more fatal is the fact that there is no vaccine available in the market for this virus and the best way to save yourself is to remain indoors as much as possible and practice social distancing whenever you go out.
While the whole world is busy thinking how their lives will shape up after the impact of coronavirus is reduced, Twitter users are busy using their creativity in letting people know how they planned their year 2020 and what is actually happening.
We all should make a habit of following some precautions such as wearing mask, washing hands regularly, sanitization, practicing social distancing, etc. and these precautions should be taken even when the things start getting back to normal.
What are your plans for 2020 and how do you relate to this trend?
Many women get harassed or molested every day in the whole world which is quite unfortunate and distressing. The governments are making laws in order to protect women but it’s quite sad to know that there are some girls who are using these laws in a wrong manner against men.
We will take you back in the year 2015 when everybody was chiefly talking about the case of Jasleen Kaur and Sarvjeet Singh Bedi in which Jasleen accused Sarvjeet of molestation by passing lewd comments on 23rd August 2015 when she was walking down Tilak Nagar Street. She also made a long Facebook post in order to malign the image of Sarvjeet publicly and wrote that he not only passed disgusting comments but also warned her of dire consequences if she clicked his photo.
Soon, the torch-bearers of feminism were shouting at the top of their voices even without listening to Sarvjeet’s explanation in this matter. The media was hell-bound to prove him a pervert and a criminal who is very harmful to the society, especially women, and even the Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal applauded Jasleen Kaur for her brave act which was no less than a drama.
Case was registered against Sarvjeet and he attended all the court hearings but from Jasleen’s side, her lawyer used to attend the court as she was in Canada due to academic commitments. Jasleen attended the court only after strict warning was issued for her by the court and then also she tried to play the victim card by saying that she had been threatened on social media for making Sarvjeet suffer.
Finally in 2019, Sarvjeet Singh Bedi was acquitted from all the charges but till then what all he went through can’t be reimbursed. He lost his job, he and his family lost the respect that they used to get in the society and not only the guy but his complete family suffered mental torture and that too for something which never happened.
The laws have been made for protecting people, not for harassing someone and there should be a provision to punish those who ruin other’s life by using the law wrongly.
Recently Sarvjeet posted a video on his YouTube channel in which he recited a poem “Main Ladka Hoon – Galat Nahi” which was written by his friend Himanshu who has an Instagram page titled as “Alfaazo Ka Ashiyaan”.
In this poem, he talked about his own plight and of many others who have been wrongly framed in false cases by those who know how to use the law for their benefit.
