The controversy which started as Virat-Rohit rift turned into Virat-BCCI (Sourav Ganguly) rift after Virat Kohli made some explosive statements in the virtual press conference which he carried out before the departure of the Indian cricket team to South Africa. Now a former Indian pacer has added another angle to it and if we go by his opinion, Virat Kohli and Ravi Shastri had taken things completely in their control and they were doing whatever they wanted.

If you remember, the former Indian cricketer MS Dhoni was appointed as the mentor of the Indian squad which was selected to play the ICC T20 World Cup 2021. While very few former cricketers and experts questioned the appointment of MS Dhoni as the mentor when the team already had a coach and a skipper as well, the Indian cricket fans were pretty happy seeing their favourite cricketer once again in the blue jersey. The BCCI President Sourav Ganguly and Secretary Jay Shah said that MS Dhoni’s track record in the ICC tournaments is awesome and his wisdom and knowledge will be of great help to the team.

However, the former Indian cricketer Atul Wassan made a controversial statement during a debate on a news channel as he said that the BCCI brought in Dhoni in order to bring a balance as the general feeling was that the duo of Virat Kohli and Ravi Shastri were handling all the matters as per their will and they were selecting whom they wanted. Atul Wassan also alleged that Virat and Ravi were controlling the Indian cricket completely because of which the BCCI had to rope in the former skipper.

In regard to the captaincy saga, Atul Wassan states that the selectors have done the right thing by appointing Rohit Sharma as the skipper of the Indian ODI team. He also talks about the controversy related to Kohli’s removal from the captaincy and says that once a cricketer plays a lot of cricket and he is given the status of demi-God by his fans, he starts expecting special treatment and this thing really needs to change. Atul Wassan also says that a player should not expect much from the board and whenever he is asked to do something or is told something, they have to accept it.

As far as the ICC T20 World Cup 2021 is concerned, India had a very disappointing campaign as it lost its first two matches against Pakistan and New Zealand and the Indian team was not even able to qualify for the semi-finals.

Virat Kohli is presently in South Africa with the Indian team where it is slated to play 3-match test series against South Africa starting December 26 and many experts feel that Kohli’s career as a test captain will also depend a lot on his personal and team’s performance in South Africa.

There is no denying the fact that operators are liable in such a scenario and strict action should be taken against them for such carelessness and it should also serve as a lesson for other operators.

Priyanka Chopra Jonas who is also addressed as PeeCee by her fans has become one of the most sought after actresses in both the movie industries – Bollywood and Hollywood because of her superb acting and wonderful performances. Though she was a big star in Bollywood when she went to Hollywood 10 years ago yet her stardom was of no benefit to her while searching for work in Hollywood.

Priyanka Chopra who has given some really big hits in the recent past such as “A Kid Like Jake”, “Isn’t it Romantic”, “Baywatch”, “We can be Heroes”, etc. gave an interview to a leading daily recently in which she talked about the struggles faced by her and also about the lack of opportunities for the South Asian actors.

As per Desi Girl of Bollywood, the south Asian actors have to fight a lot or try hard to get lead or important roles in big Hollywood commercial movies and this can be understood by the fact that she has been in Hollywood for almost 10 years but it is now she is playing the roles which she always wanted to. She adds that the south Asians are almost one-fifth of the world population but their presence in the English entertainment world is pretty less.

The 39 years old actress further says that she really hopes she can share the responsibility of creating opportunities for the south Asian actors, however she had to work very hard for getting opportunities for herself. Priyanka says that other than her, there are few south Asian actors such as Aziz Ansari, Riz Ahmed, Mindy Kaling, etc. who have worked pretty hard and kicked the door to open and made their demand to have a seat on the table. She further says that though their demand of getting a seat on the table still remains unfulfilled, they have at least stuck their foot in the door.

Talking about her own struggles, she said that it was very hard for her to convince the moviemakers that she had the capability to play lead and important roles because people were not aware of her stardom in Bollywood and she had to walk in as a new actor who wanted to prove herself.

Priyanka Chopra also opened up on the controversy that erupted some time ago about her divorce with Nick Jonas as she removed Jonas from her Instagram username. The “Aitraaz” actress asked the social media users to just chill as she only wanted her username to match with her Twitter username but it really amuses her that such small things are taken in a big manner on the virtual world.

Well PeeCee’s fans who might be worried about her relationship and marriage can now relax because she is not getting divorced.

Every time we hear or read about a company or a country implementing 4-day a week work, we wonder when the Indian citizens will also get the chance of working 4 days a week and will have an extended weekend. Well, this dream may become reality soon, most probably by the beginning of the year 2022 as the Indian government is all set to implement four new labour codes in regard to the wages, industrial relations, occupational safety and social security.

Under these new codes, some changes may be expected in relation to working hours, number of working days in a week and also in the take-home salary of the employees.

In the scenario of these codes getting implemented from the next year, the Indian employees will also work 4 days a week in comparison to the present 5 days a week system. However, the daily working hours will also increase to 12 hours from 8 hours as the labour ministry is in no mood to reduce the weekly working hours which is 48 hours per week as of now. One big change that will also come is the take-home pay of the employees which will get reduced and the firms will have to bear the liability of higher provident fund.

Representational Image

As per the experts who are studying these new proposed laws, there will be a significant change in the manner in which the calculation of basic pay and provident fund is done. While the central government has finalized the new labour laws from their side, they are waiting for the state governments to frame regulations on their part as labour is a concurrent subject.

Hopefully, these new labour laws will bring something to cheer for us as in the last two years, people have already suffered a lot due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

We have seen many experiments related to food dishes and some of them have been so bizarre that many of us really feel like locking these so-called food enthusiasts in prison for eternity. One such person is the one who invented jalebi chaat! Yes you read it right! Jalebi and chaat are two different items and they both have their own fan following but their fusion is something that we can’t imagine even in the worst dream.

Representational Image

Jalebi is one of the most eaten sweet dishes of India and it is loved by almost every Indian irrespective of the region from where he belongs. While some of us eat jalebi without adding anything else, there are some who like to have it with milk or rabri. However, netizens got the biggest shock of their lifetime as someone carried out a weird experiment by blending jalebi with chaat and came up with something very bizarre.

Recently a Twitter user Mayur Sejpal shared a tweet in which he posted a pic of jalebi chaat with the caption, “Aaj Friday ki khushi me sabko mere taraf se Jalebi Chaat…” (On the happy occasion of today being Friday, here is a treat of jalebi chaat from my side to everyone).

The image showed jalebi with onion, papdi, curd and was garnished with sev puri and honestly, mere thought of jalebi with onion makes us feel nauseous. Soon the micro-blogging site got exploded with reactions in which people questioned the logic behind such an experiment and also asked him not to repeat such fusions. While there were some who demanded punishment for him, few others requested Twitter to block his account.

Here are some of the selected tweets:

If you remember, there have not been many days when we told you about momo parantha which is being sold at a price of Rs.100 and other strange food items such as Oreo pakori, ice-cream dosa, Maggi cooked in Fanta and there is no denying the fact that such fusions give us an impression that the end of the world seems to be very near.

Will you ever dare to taste jalebi chaat? If you ask me, I will never suggest so as jalebi is something I can crave for at any time of the day and jalebi chaat will make me want to never have it.

Wasim Jaffer, the former Indian cricketer, has become quite famous on social media networks as he regularly posts funny memes and also gets involves in banter with other cricketers, especially former England cricketer Michael Vaughan.

When Jaffer is so active on social media platforms, it’s quite natural for him to have a huge fan following and he also interacts with his followers on a regular basis. Recently during an interaction on a platform for digital cricket collectibles, a fan asks a very interesting question to the former Indian cricketer in relation to Chris Gayle.

Wasim Jaffer who is the current chief coach of the Odisha cricket team has also been serving as the batting coach of the IPL team Punjab Kings (earlier Kings XI Punjab) and a fan asks him about his experience of giving coaching to the Universe Boss Chris Gayle. The West Indian cricketer who is loved for his destructive batting style is considered as one of the greatest batsmen of the T20I cricket and there is no denying the fact that he has the ability of changing the course of the game single-handedly.

In response to the question, Jaffer says that there is not much that he can teach Chris Gayle in terms of the T20 batting as he is a legendary player but he can certainly teach him about enhancing his social media game but for that purpose, he will need to make Gayle watch Indian movies so that he can get help in making memes.

Talking about his own social media activities, Wasim Jaffer states that throughout his career, he has been a serious player and as far as his nature is concerned, he is an introvert. However, he also adds that social media has helped him a lot in exploring his funny side in addition to providing others with some light moments to laugh.

The mega auction for the IPL 2022 will be taking place soon and Chris Gayle may have been the first choice for any franchise but considering the fact that age is not on his side as well as his poor form in the recent past, there are good chances that he may go unsold in the auction.

Do you want to see Chris Gayle playing in the IPL 2022? If yes, for which franchise? Share with us.
