Paresh Rawal questions Ali Zafar�??s silence over India�??s airstrikes against Pakistan

Posted by [email protected] on February 28, 2019 at 7:10 AM Comments comments (0)

The Indian Air Force (IAF) ordered air strikes on terror cvamps in Pakistan, which entire India hailed.

From bigwigs of Bollywood to sports stars, from politicians to the general public, everyone came out in encouragement of the work taken in response to Pulwama terror attack that killed around 40 CRPF personnel on February 14.

Pakistan-based terrorist organization Jaishe-e-Mohammed took responsibility for the attack.

Actor Paresh Rawal took a deep dig at Pakistani singer and actor Ali Zafar on the hindmost silence over the IAF operations. Rawal reacted to Zafar’s old tweet where he had admired the Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan’s speech.

After the Pulwama attack, Pakistan PM discussed had a televised address to his country, which Zafar praised.

Zafar, who also worked in Bollywood films like ‘Dear Zindagi’ and ‘Mere Brother Ki Dulhan’, had taken to his official Twitter to praise Imran Khan for his speech.

Later a Twitter user Trendulkar shared a screenshot of Zafar’s tweet to Imran Khan and wrote, “What a strike @narendramodi.”


Paresh Rawal then took a dig at Zafar and wrote, “Now speechless!!!”

The airstrikes, which are being praised as ‘Surgical Strike 2.0’ took place on February 26 near 3:30 am using 12 Mirage 2,000 fighter jets.

The IAF aircraft dropped 1,000 kg laser-guided bombs on a large terror camp across the Line of Control, utterly destroying it.

Meanwhile, Ali Zafar, who has been an important part of the Indian film industry, suffered flak for voicing his support for Imran Khan’s speech soon after the Pulwama attacks.

On the other hand, Paresh Rawal was last spotted in ‘Uri: The Surgical Strike’ and soon, will be seen in the biopic of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

The official statement from Sonakshi’s management agency further read: “This put everyone in a tough spot. Several attempts were made to contact the organizer requesting him to make the contracted payments and send the tickets, however, they remained incommunicado and didn’t live up to their end of the bargain.”

The statement further reads, “Ever since that day, Sonakshi’s management agency has been trying to reach out to the organizer to find an amicable solution to the extent of offering an alternate date and tried to connect but to no avail.” Adding to that, the organizer is now using the media to release false and manipulated facts.

The statement further reads, “If the organizer doesn’t stop at this, Sonakshi and her team will be forced to take a legal course of action to set this straight. We request media to not let anyone use their platform without looking into the facts.”

As per the complainant, Sonakshi had agreed to be a part of his show in Delhi on September 30 and even accepted Rs 37 lakh for the same. Still, she denied being at the event at the last minute.

As per the sources, “I tried convincing her (Sonakshi) a lot to perform at the event and even told her that I will incur huge losses if she doesn’t come, but she refused to perform.”

Google Maps Satellite View was once nearly called �??Bird Mode�??

Posted by [email protected] on February 25, 2019 at 7:45 AM Comments comments (0)

When big MNCs introduce something, it turns into a standard. For example, Google Maps calling its prominent feature as Satellite View, which might have been even crazier if one of the representatives had not secretly coded it this way.

Google Maps co-creator Bret Taylor took to his official Twitter handle to expose the ‘silly Google Maps origin story’. The Twitter thread consists of the back story of the mapping service’s famous Satellite View feature.

Back in 2005 when the Google Maps squad was deliberating on the name for what we today recognize as the Satellite View, super bosses Sergey Brin and Larry Page planned to hold an executive review when specific decisions were made within the span of a huge countdown clock.

Under the buzzer’s pressure, everyone was throwing names including ‘satellite’ and  ‘aerial’. Just when Brin proposed ‘Bird Mode’, the buzzer buzzed. The outcome had been made, no questions asked. The meeting was over.

Now, it was in the controls of the coders, including Taylor, who could have kept humanity with a little lie. So they chose to do an internal veto and launched the feature as ‘Satellite View’, even if it meant an absolutely incorrect name as a substantial amount of images illustrated in this mode are actually taken through aerial photography.

Justice RM Lodha: Sports bodies should not take political calls; their job is to run sport

Posted by [email protected] on February 25, 2019 at 7:40 AM Comments comments (0)

On Sunday Former Chief Justice of India (CJI) R M Lodha opined that sports bodies should refrain from taking political calls as their function is to run the sport.

In an exclusive telephonic communication with ANI, Lodha said, “Unless government snaps all sports activities with Pakistan, sports bodies should not take a political call. The government will have to take a political call, sports bodies’ function is to run the sport.”

The Committee of Administrators (CoA), which controls the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), said the sporting community should isolate Pak for supporting terrorism and make it the “apartheid of international cricket,” just as South Africa was excluded in world games due to its policy of apartheid

COA chairman Vinod Rai told to reporters  “Want to make Pakistan the apartheid of international cricket and will seek all member nations’ support to make sure it happens and this matter will officially be tabled in the ICC chief executives meet too,”

In the backdrop of Pulwama attack, On Friday BCCI had appealed to the International Cricket Council (ICC) to dissolve ties with countries from where terrorism emerges, in a clear reference to Pakistan.

Indian captain Virat Kohli condemned the Pulwama Attack and supported that the team will do whatever the BCCI and the government agree to do on the India-Pakistan World Cup match.

Co-producer of the highly anticipated film ‘Bharat’, Atul Agnihotri shared new behind-the-scenes photo of Salman from the sets of the film.

He took to his official Instagram account to share a photo featuring the ‘Dabangg’ star, who can be examined sitting on a chair with his back to the camera and looks to be talking on a phone. It turns out to be one busy day from the film sets.

The makers of ‘Bharat’ recently disclosed the first teaser of the film. The one-minute twenty-six-second teaser displayed the ‘Dabangg’ actor in various avatars, depicting the story of his character’s life.

Interestingly, indeed though the teaser of the film introduced different shades of Salmans’ characters, it did not disclose his lead pair Katrina Kaif at all.

Last time Katrina Kaif and Salman Khan were seen together in the films Tiger Zinda Hai’ and ‘Ek Tha Tiger’.

The forthcoming film also featuring Sonali Kulkarni and Jackie Shroff is a remake of the 2014 South Korean blockbuster ‘Ode to My Father’.

As per latest Bollywood news, the ‘Bajrangi Bhaijaan’ star will be seen playing five different looks in the film spanning 60 years, having a vital part which will show the actor in his late 20s, seeing much leaner and younger.
