From Akshay To Big B, SRK To Shahid, These Celebs Made It To Forbes Most Influential Celebs List

There is no denying the fact that the year 2020 has been a little harsh on Bollywood but it is completely true that still many Indians got inspired and influenced by the B-Town celebs. It is also impossible to ignore the fact that some of the Bollywood celebs are involved actively in the social causes and some huge donations have been made by few actors during the coronavirus pandemic. The Forbes Magazine has released the list of the Asia-Pacific’s most influential celebrities on social media and many Bollywood celebs have secured place in this list.

Considering the fact that almost the whole year was marred by the COVID-19 pandemic and people stayed in their houses for the majority part of 2020, this list is unranked and takes into account the initiatives carried out by the celebrities on social media as the events and activities which were supposed to be carried out in person got cancelled. Forbes focuses on the celebs who kept in touch with their fans, made them aware about the coronavirus and safety measures, spread positivity and contributed in the COVID-19 relief.

While the legendary Indian actor Amitabh Bachchan was included in the list for raising $7 milllion for the COVID-19 relief fund, the Khiladi of Bollywood aka Akshay Kumar has been termed as the highest paid actor of B-Town and he has also been credited for donating $4 million in the COVID-19 relief fund. The superstar Shah Rukh Khan has also been included in the list as he was honoured by the World Economic Forum (WEF) for working for the rights of women and children.

Ranveer Singh has found a place too because of his movie “Padmaavat” which is the 10th highest grossing film of Bollywood till date. Alia Bhatt has been regarded as one of the highest paid actresses of the industry and she was also called a part of the Bollywood family dynasty.

The veteran actress Madhuri Dixit has got a place in this list because of the online dance classes that she carried out in the month of April and helped her fans in learning some cool dance moves. Actress Anushka Sharma who is presently pregnant has been included in the list as she is pretty active for women’s causes and environmental cause as well. Shahid Kapoor has been praised for his performance in the superhit movie “Kabir Singh” which is the second highest grossing flick of 2019.

Not just the actors but the singers have also been included in this list such as Neha Kakkar and Shreya Ghoshal. Neha recently got married to Punjabi singer Rohanpreet Singh and the couple also made news for their age difference.

Do you feel that some people have been missed by Forbes, such as Sonu Sood and Salman Khan? Don’t you think that Sonu Sood deserved to be included in the list for all the noble work that he has done for the migrants and laborers amid the coronavirus pandemic?

Every ardent cricket fan hopes to watch at least one cricket match in stadium in his life despite the fact that watching a match on television with friends or family at home or club is quite entertaining. While watching on television, a person also gets to hear the former cricketers while they do commentary and can also see the replays of the shots played or dismissals done in the match. However, watching a match in the stadium has its own benefits as though there a person is not able to see the game properly, he can actually feel the energy and enthusiasm of the people around him and also have a chance to see the cricketers from nearby.

The cameramen are also always eager to capture the moments which are unique or beautiful and something of this sort happened in the second T20I which was played between India and Australia at Manuka Oval, Canberra, Australia. The camera captured an Indian supporter who was super excited but his child was crying non-stop. The fan of Men in Blue was cheering in flow with the other supporters but he did not seem to be concerned about why his son was crying.

Cricket Australia shared the GIF with caption, “Cricket’s not everyone’s cup of tea #AUSvIND”

This was more than enough for the online users and they started expressing their opinion in creative and funny tweets:

“I Have Lost A Job & Not Been Cast In A Part Because I Look Too Good,” Says Dia Mirza

Bollywood actress Dia Mirza is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful actresses who have ever worked in the film industry but you will be shocked to know that sometimes good looks can be a problem as well. Dia was just 18 years old when she won the Miss Asia Pacific International and made the country proud but making a career in movies was not easy for her and she faced many rejections.

While giving an interview to a leading daily, the 38-yr actress reveals that her beautiful looks has resulted in her not getting the work and getting rejected because she looked too good. According to her, people should not make presumptions because the way she looks has been a strange disadvantage for her. The actress who debuted in 2001 says that she may have been sounding ungrateful but it is true that her skin color has worked against her quite a few times. Dia further adds that she is also aware of the struggles that the dark colour women face but there are some stereotypes related to thinking cinema, the type of cinema which she loves. The “Rehnaa Hai Terre Dil Mein” star goes on to say that the good part is that things are improving because of which she has nothing to complain about.

The actress turned environmentalist also talks about the beauty pageant that she won and says that the title has given a platform to speak. It has given her opportunities and also made her financially strong. She also adds that when she was 18, she had a lot to discover about herself and still, she has a lot to find out about herself.

Dia Mirza also opens up about the struggles that she faced while participating in the beauty pageant because she was brought up in an environment which was non-competitive. She told that her mother guided her during the contest and told her that she should not compete against anyone but all her efforts should focus on herself only. Her mother gave her the confidence to succeed and told her to enjoy and learn.

When Dia was asked that whether she would have got a chance to work in movies if she had not won the beauty title, she said that she had no idea about it but she was in love with movies always. She told that she used to take part in dramatics from her school days and not just her mother but her grandmother (naani) was a fan of flicks. As per Dia, her creativity and love for movies would have made her find a way to work in films even if she had not won the title.

It’s always a delight to see the gorgeous actress spreading her magic on the big screen and we would love to see more of her!

Stuart Broad’s Tweet For Anderson Post Virat’s Dropped Catch In Ind-Aus 2nd T20I Has Gone Viral

There is no denying the fact that the excitement is at the highest level whenever the Indian and Australian cricket teams face each other on the ground and something of the same sort happened during the 3-match ODI series and just concluded 3-match T20I series. While the Australians won the ODI series by 2-1, the visitors made a comeback in the T20I series and won it by 2-1.

Team India sealed the T20I series by winning the second T20I in which Hardik Pandya played a brilliant innings well supported by the Indian skipper Virat Kohli and Shikhar Dhawan. In the bowling sector, T. Natarajan was superb but what was talked about the most was the dropped catch of Matthew Wade which was dropped by Virat Kohli. The Indian skipper is one of the best fielders of the world but in the last couple of matches, he has dropped some very easy catches.

Matthew Wade was leading his team in the second T20I as the Australian skipper Aaron Finch was declared unfit for the match. When the wicketkeeper-batsman came to bat, he looked in a great touch and soon he scored 58 runs for which he played just 32 balls. The Indians were desperate to get his wicket because he would have ensured his team’s victory if he had carried for some time.

Soon, the Indian spinner Washington Sundar gave a good chance to the Indian team when his delivery took a leading edge from Matthew Wade’s bat and went towards Virat Kohli. It was quite an easy catch and everyone would have expected that he would easily take that catch but the Indian skipper dropped it. However, Virat rectified his mistake by quickly throwing the ball towards the wicketkeeper KL Rahul who made no mistake in removing the bails quickly resulting in Wade getting out. There was no coordination among the Aussie batsmen Matthew Wade and Steve Smith because of which this goof-up took place.

This incident was noticed by the England pacer Stuart Broad and he shared the video while tagging his teammate James Anderson with caption, “Remind you of anything @Jimmy9?”

Stuart Broad was talking about a similar incident which happened during the England team’s tour to Pakistan early this year. In that match, James Anderson was pretty close to completing his 600 wickets when Stuart Broad dropped an easy catch on Anderson’s bowling. However, Broad also ensured that his team got a wicket by getting the batsman out by directly hitting the wicket.

Soon, India and Australia will face each other in the four match test series in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy.

Varun responds in a perfect manner by telling the troller that he is very funny and has a great sense of humour, adding that he really hopes he and his family don’t go through what COVID-19 infected people undergo but the family members of the troller will certainly go through his sad excuse of humour. In the end, Varun wishes the troller to get well soon.

Varun made a new post with new photo after deleting the old post with the similar caption. In his new post, Varun is seen sporting a beard which may be required for his movie “Jug Jugg Jeeyo” for which he was shooting in Chandigarh. In the caption, he wrote about contracting the lethal virus despite the fact that the production carried out all the safety protocols. He asked everyone to be cautious and also thanked for the get well soon wishes.

Here is what the caption read, “So as I returned to work in the pandemic era I have contracted #covid_19 All precautions were taken by the production but still nothing is certain in life especially not covid-19. So please be extra careful I believe I could have been more careful. I see the get well soon messages and my spirits are high taking each day at a time thank u.”

Check out the post:

Along with Varun, the “Jug Jugg Jeeyo” cast includes Anil Kapoor, Kiara Advani, Neetu Kapoor and YouTuber Prajakta Kohli. The news of them getting infected with coronavirus was doing rounds from a couple of days. Other than Varun, Neetu Kapoor and Raj Mehta who is the director of the movie have also tested positive for COVID-19. Fans of Neetu Kapoor will see her back on screen after 7 years as “Besharam” was her last movie in which she worked with her late husband Rishi Kapoor and son Ranbir Kapoor.

We wish them all to get well soon.

Blood donation is undoubtedly one of the noblest acts that human beings can indulge in but still majority of us refrain due to our ignorance or some other reasons. Many people think that they will fall ill after donating blood but the truth is that donating blood doesn’t have any bad effect on our health. In fact, donating blood is good for the health of liver and it also reduces the risk of heart attack as well as chances of developing cancer.

Representational Image

Samadhan Sarvankar, a Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) corporator from Prabhadevi area of Mumbai, has come up with a great idea for encouraging blood donation. Samadhan Sarvankar who is from Shiv Sena is organizing a blood donation camp on the thirteenth of this month at the Rajabhau Salvi Ground in New Prabhadevi. This blood donation drive is being held in partnership with KEM Hospital which is located in Lower Parel.

Now let us tell you about the unique idea that Samadhan Sarvankar is using for attracting the donors. Every donor will get either one kilo chicken or one kilo paneer depending on their choice and eating habits.

Representational Image

The target is of collecting 1,000 units of blood and the people who are interesting in donating blood need to register before December 11 at the Shiv Sena Shakha 194 which is close to Saamana Press.

Here is the tweet:

The camp will start at 10 am and will go on till 2 pm; till the time the article was written, 300 people got their names registered. One important point to remember here is that the donor should be above 18 years old and below 50 years of age.

Virat Kohli’s Tweet On Anushka Sharma’s Pregnancy Is Most Liked Tweet Of 2020, Declares Twitter

Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma make one of the most adorable couples of India and both of them enjoy a huge following on the social media networks. They are lovingly referred to as Virushka by fans and the duo also keeps on sharing updates about their personal and professional lives on a regular basis. Some months ago, Virat Kohli and Anushka took to the micro-blogging site Twitter and announced that they will be parents soon.

Now Twitter India has released a list in which it has talked about the most liked tweets, most retweeted tweets and most quoted tweets.

It won’t come as a surprise that the tweet in which Virat told his fans that their baby is arriving in January 2021 turns out to be the most liked tweet of India as it has received 643.9K likes till now.

This tweet along with a photo of Anushka and Virat was posted by both of them in August 2020 on their respective social media handles. In the tweet, Anushka’s baby bump was clearly visible after which they received a huge number of congratulatory tweets. The caption was the same in both the accounts, “And then, we were three! Arriving Jan 2021”.

On the other hand, the most retweeted tweet was the one in which actor Vijay was seen thanking his fans in Neyveli; it was retweeted for more than 145.7K times.

The most quoted tweet in India was done by the legendary Bollywood actor Amitabh Bachchan; however it was about something we would never have liked to hear about. In this tweet, Big B informed everyone that he had been tested COVID-19 positive and was admitted in hospital. He also requested everyone who came in contact with him in the last 10 days to get themselves tested.

The IPL 2020 was a huge success for BCCI and it won’t be wrong to say that it brought excitement in our lives as after so many months, we got to see any cricketing action. The league showed its supremacy and fan following on the social media as #IPL2020 was the most tweeted sports hashtag. Surprisingly, MS Dhoni led Chennai Super Kings performed miserably in the IPL 2020 but the support that it got on Twitter was immense and as a result #WhistlePodu was the second most tweeted sports hashtag of 2020 in India. The third position was also secured a hashtag which is related to cricket and that is #TeamIndia. The Indian squad is presently on the tour to Australia where it has lost the 3-match ODI series by 2-1 and has taken in invincible lead in the 3-match T20I series by 2-0. After the T20I series, India and Australia will also play four test matches as a part of the Border-Gavaskar trophy.

If we talk about the most tweeted movie hashtags, the first place went to #DilBechara, the last released movie of actor Sushant Singh Rajput who was found hanging in his Bandra Apartment in the month of June. The second and third place went to southern language movies.

Twitter India also revealed the most tweeted emoji in which the laughing emoji got the first place.

Let’s welcome 2021 with open arms and hope that it brings happiness and prosperity for all!
