Watch: Couple Recreates 'Bang Bang' Song, Hrithik Roshan Reacts

October 30, 2023 at 10:46PM A couple decided to give their pre-wedding shoot a Bollywood twist. In a video now going viral on the internet, the couple, Karan and Sakshi Kashyap recreated the song ' Bang Bang ', originally picturised on actors Hrithik Roshan and Katrina Kaif. With choreographed moves that mirrored the song's infectious energy, the couple weaved their playful chemistry into each step and beat. The clip shows a couple dressed like Mr Roshan and Ms Kaif, recreating the popular Bollywood song in a scene-by-scene manner. "In her [Sakshi] own words, 'Karan, I know we aren't that great dancers but I wish we could do something like this instead of a PreWed video for our wedding'. That enthusiasm of Sakshi had left a thought in Karan's mind. He had made up his mind that one day he would surprise her with KARSHI's version of BANG BANG," the wedding planners wrote. "Cut to 2 years later - Their wedding preps have already started. O...

On PM Modi's Jibe At Sharad Pawar, Supriya Sule's Padma Vibhushan Rebuttal

October 27, 2023 at 11:16PM Nationalist Congress Party leader Supriya Sule on Friday said it was the Narendra Modi government that had given Sharad Pawar the Padma Vibhushan, the country's second highest civilian award, for his work in the agriculture sector, the statement coming a day after the prime minister questioned the NCP founder's contribution to farmers. During his address in Shirdi in Ahmednagar district on Thursday, PM Modi, without naming Mr Pawar, had said, "Some people in Maharashtra only did politics in the name of farmers. A senior leader of Maharashtra served as the country's agriculture minister. I personally respect him, but what has he done for farmers?" Mr Pawar served as the agriculture minister when the Congress-led UPA government was in office at the Centre (2004-14). PM Modi had also said when Mr Pawar was the Union agriculture minister, farmers were at the mercy of middlemen. Talking to reporters in Sindhdurg district, Ms Sule said when...

Israel Finds Itself Increasingly Alone As Anger Grows Over Gaza

Image
October 25, 2023 at 11:10PM Jordan's Queen Rania Al Abdullah was offered a chance to express horror at the Oct. 7 Hamas killing and abduction of Israelis. How did she feel, she was asked in a CNN interview, "as an Arab, as a Palestinian, a human being, a mother?" The monarch launched into an impassioned denunciation of Israel's subsequent bombing of Gaza and the West's "double standard," juxtaposing what happened in southern Israel with what is occurring in Gaza. "Are we being told it is wrong to kill an entire family at gunpoint but it's OK to shell them to death?" The interview, greeted with fury in Israel, is part of a growing disconnect between how the Jewish state views the conflict, and how it is seen by the rest of the Middle East and many further afield. Inside Israel, a powerful sense of foreboding was evidenced by a new poll showing 64% of Israelis now fear for their physical safety. Hamas continues to fire rockets and missile...

Is Congress' Opposition To Adani A Form Of Extortion, Asks BJP MP

October 21, 2023 at 11:31PM Alleging that Congress MLAs in his constituency are taking money from, and promoting, Adani Group companies, BJP MP Nishikant Dubey on Saturday wondered whether the party's opposition to the group was a form of extortion or a pressure tactic.  In a post on X, formerly Twitter, Mr Dubey posted photos of plaques in Hindi from various projects which state that they had been carried out courtesy Adani Power and on the recommendation of Deepika Pandey Singh, the Congress MLA from Mahagama in Jharkhand. Mr Dubey is the Lok Sabha MP from Jharkhand's Godda.  Mr Dubey also took the name of Congress MLA Pradeep Yadav from the Poraiyahat constituency stating that he does the same thing. Both the Mahagama and Poraiyahat assembly constituencies come under the Godda Lok Sabha seat. In a Hindi post, addressed to former Congress president Rahul Gandhi, Mr Dubey said, "Rahul Gandhi ji , could it be that the Congress' opposition to Adani is a form of extor...

Thief In Poland Poses As Mannequin Before Stealing Jewellery From Mall

October 19, 2023 at 11:26PM A man in the Polish capital Warsaw was arrested after he pretended to be a mannequin in a shop window in order to steal jewellery, BBC reported. In photos released by the Warsaw police, the 22-year-old man was seen standing behind the storefront window, holding a bag. Surprisingly, both staff and shoppers failed to notice anything suspicious as the man blended in with the mannequins in the window.  According to the police, the suspect roamed through different departments after closing, ultimately targeting a jewelry stand.  ''With a bag in his hand, he stood still in front of a shop window, pretending to be a display mannequin.

Top Cops In Rajasthan Transferred Ahead Of State Polls

October 11, 2023 at 11:47PM The police chiefs of Rajasthan's Hanumangarh, Churu and Bhiwadi have been transferred by the Election Commission ahead of the assembly elections in the state.
