Roger Federer Surprised Two Of His Fans For A Friendly Rooftop Match & Ate Pasta With Them

People have been stuck in quarantine from the past many months and that’s when two Italian girls decided to play tennis from their respective rooftops amid the pandemic. For maintaining social distancing, the two junior players from Liguria, Italy took their game to a whole new level in April.
Checkout the video here- Most incredible thing you’ll see today.

These two women are playing tennis from rooftop to rooftop in the Italian city of Liguria to pass time during the pandemic.

Sports.️🇮🇹 pic.twitter.com/Nse4Pu6xCa — Rex Chapman🏼 (@RexChapman) April 18, 2020 The video went viral on social media and showed how 13-year old Vittoria and 11 year old Carola became overnight sensations and were recognized by many people. However, after three months, the girls got a chance to meet Roger Federer and also played a friendly match with him. Incredible to see... again! One of the most spectacular and unusual tennis matches we have seen in a while. Liguria, Italy 🇮🇹 @rogerfederer #TheRooftopMatch pic.twitter.com/a7FfCSkvr0 — Barilla (@Barilla) July 31, 2020 In the video, it can be seen that the girls thought that they were in-between just another interview and weren't aware at all that Roger Federer was at their rooftop. They were praising Federer as he is their favorite player and that’s when they saw that the professional player was standing right there. The girls were seen screaming in excitement and then Roger asked the girls if they wanted to play a friendly match with him on their rooftop. The girls yelled in joy, “We cannot believe it, Federer is on our rooftop!” Now, this video has also gone viral on the internet and has around 5.8K re-tweets and over 1.8M views on social media. Here’s what people on Twitter have to say about it- @LadyBellatrix @shackle52 @norinchi_df @VolleyMePlease

They kicked out on the street to get to you!" — Lee (@unionjump) July 31, 2020The looks on their faces when they saw him though, adorable. — Bobito (@bobito64) July 31, 2020Awesome.

Sushant's Therapist Confirms Actor Had 'Bipolar Disorder' & Says 'Rhea Was His Biggest Support'

Of late, there has been so much written and spoken about Sushant Singh Rajput’s mental illness. There are several reports in the media on whether the late actor was going through depression or not, which has led to several unanswered questions regarding his case.  Shedding light on this highly significant topic, Sushant’s therapist has now come forward to break her silence on this matter. Dr Susan Walker opened up to journalist Barkha Dutt in a recent chat about Sushant and his severe condition and how Rhea was his biggest support during his difficult time. Dr Walker confirmed to the journalist that Sushant was suffering from depression and bipolar disorder and said it was her duty to clear the air around attacks on Rhea Chakraborty on social media. “In light of the misinformation and conspiracy theories currently raging on social media about Sushant Singh Rajput and Rhea Chakraborty, I have decided it is my duty to make a statement. In my capacity as a clinical psychologist and psychotherapist, I met Sushant and Rhea on several occasions in November and December 2019 and communicated again with Rhea in June of this year,” she said.  Here’s the full video: Sushant’s therapist added that the stigma around mental illness can be harmful for a patient, keeping them from seeking help. “Sushant was suffering from bipolar disorder, a severe mental illness that can be crippling for an individual during an episode. The symptoms of which can include severe anxiety, major depression and sometimes disordered thinking and paranoia. The continuing, appalling stigma around mental illness makes it very difficult for patients and their families to reach out. This has to stop. Mental illness is no different than cancer or diabetes. It can affect anyone, regardless of class,financial status and so on. In a way that cancer can,” she said. “People with mental illnesses and their families need to feel safe from discrimination so that they can get their treatment and support and acceptance they need. There is no shame in having a mental illness. Should one feel ashamed of having cancer? Mental illness can be treated, it is often the shame of having such an illness that can drive people to suicide. Along with the absolute torment of being in the grip of an illness that affects the ways out minds and emotions work,” Dr Walker added. In fact, most importantly, she further said that Rhea was his biggest support and cared for him. “Sushant was suffering terribly during his bouts of depression and hypomania. Rhea was his strongest support. From the first time I met them as a couple, I was impressed by the degree of concern, love and support she showed. It was very evident how close they were. Rhea took care of his appointments and gave him enough courage to attend, despite his being so fearful that someone would find out.” “When he was severely ill, he depended on her as somewhat of a mother figure and she completely filled that role with love, encouragement and patience. It was an incredibly hard time for her as seeing someone suffer through the cruelty of mental illnesses of family members. They need to keep it a secret and bear things in silence, an added trauma. The treatment that Rhea has received on social media is deeply shocking to me as I have only ever experienced her as deeply caring and sensitive person. Sushant’s sad and untimely death needs to be yet another lesson for us all--in ending of shame and stigma around mental illness,” she added. Sushant Singh Rajput died by suicide at his suburban Bandra apartment in Mumbai on June 14. He was 34. Sushant’s father recently filed an FIR against Rhea earlier this week, accusing her of extortion of money and abetment to suicide. Besides, former Union Cabinet Minister Subramanian Swamy recently took to his Twitter handle to share why he feels that Sushant Singh Rajput didn’t die by suicide but was murdered.

ASUS ZenBook 13 Is A Great Thin & Light Notebook & Here's What We Think After Using It For A Week

ASUS has launched some really cool laptops in India this year, and the ZenBook series is the next in line to get refreshed models.  We now have two new ZenBooks in the series, the ZenBook 13 UX325 and the ZenBook 14 UX425. Both are thin and light notebooks that cater to people who want a portable machine to use on the go. We've been using the ZenBook 13 for about a week now and we think it's a really cool laptop. Here are our first impressions after using it for a week: Design & Build QualityASUS has some of the best looking laptops on the market right now and the ZenBook series notebooks are the ones that really come to mind when we think about a beautifully thin and light notebook. The chassis of the ZenBook 13 is made out of lightweight aluminium alloy and it weighs just 1.11 Kgs.  © MensXP/Karthik Iyer It's got a slim profile that makes it stand out from a lot of other laptops on the market. ASUS has managed to offer a lot of I/O even in such a slim form factor. You get two Thunderbolt 3 USB-C ports, a standard HDMI 2.0 port, a USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A port, and a microSD card reader. The laptop also comes with a USB-C to 3.5mm dongle, which is really handy.
So far, we're very pleased with the design and the build quality of the laptop and we hope to have more good things to talk about in our full review. DisplayThe ZenBook 13 features a 13.3-inch NanoEdge display with thin bezels. Despite the slim bezels, the ZenBook 13 sports a webcam on the front which is great. The recently launched Mi Notebook laptop from Xiaomi received a lot of flak for not having a webcam. © MensXP/Karthik Iyer The display itself seems quite nice. It's a full HD panel and seems totally good for day-to-day use. We haven't spent enough time-consuming media on this device just yet, but we'll dive deeper in our full review. For now, we think it's a great panel with a high screen-to-body ratio.
PerformanceThe ZenBook 13 comes with the latest Intel Ice Lake processors with up to 16GB RAM and up to 1TB PCIe 3.0 NVMe SSD. These are some really powerful specs for a thin and light notebook like this, so we think it should be able to churn out a good performance for the people looking to buy this. We've been using this laptop as our primary machine for writing and editing images, and it seems to handle pretty much everything without a hassle. It's also equipped with a 67Whrs battery and so far we're happy with the battery life too. It's also worth pointing out that it charges fairly quickly, which is super convenient. © MensXP/Karthik Iyer The ZenBook also has the ASUS NumberPad with LEDs under the touchpad. When you activate the NumberPad, you'll see the NumPad on the touchpad. We totally love this feature. The audio system on the ZenBook 13 is also tuned by Harmon Kardon and we'll have more to talk about it in our full review.
Pricing & AvailabilityASUS has launched the ZenBook 13 in India at a starting price of Rs 79,990. We think it's a really good price for the kind of hardware quality and performance it brings to the table.  In case you're interested in buying this laptop, then be sure to wait for our full review of the same.

Style Pundits: Pranay & Shounak From 'Who Wore What When' Decode Styling Amidst 'The New Normal'

If you are not a regular consumer of fashion, you may not recognise the names Pranay Jaitley and Shounak Amonkar. However, you'd certainly recognise the brand that Who Wore What When has come to be. 
© Instagram/who_wore_what_when Although they are popularly known for their work as celebrity stylists, the arenas where the creative geniuses of these two mavericks shine brightly, is their editorial work, and the campaigns that they create. Case in point would be the numerous projects they have undertaken for the label Falguni Shane Peacock.
As for styling celebrities, you’ll often see Vidya Balan, Kalki Koechlin, Radhika Apte, Jim Sarbh, Rajkummar Rao, Vikrant Massey and a plethora of other major celebrities, in ensembles that they have created. © Instagram/who_wore_what_when How does one come up with one divine looking outfit after the other and what does the future of celebrity styling look like in the “new normal?” This is exactly what we ask the two, in a free-wheeling conversation. Edited Excerpts:
Tell us about your journey, how did Who Wore What When come to be? © Instagram/who_wore_what_when We started as a photography blog in Milan sometime in 2013-2014. Back then, we were called Diary Of A Camera Bag, as what we primarily did was photography. We started to shoot and influencers, bloggers, magazine editors, and mainly street style during the fashion weeks. It was mainly a blog back then. In 2015, we came back to India and shot for Gaurang Shah. That is how we became a company and started styling celebrities.
How do you come up or think of aesthetics when you are creating a celebrity look? © Instagram/who_wore_what_when The key for us has been to understand the personality of the client we are working with. The ensemble has to be an extension of them. If they are comfortable with what they are wearing, they will look and be comfortable, as well as confident at the event they are attending. Wearing something completely different from who you fundamentally are, come across very badly, and that is evident in the photographs.
As for aesthetics, we get to a middle ground between what our client likes, and what we feel will work best for them. For example, Radhika (Apte) is a very minimal person, and so we tend to go for very classic & sharp silhouettes, and monotone looks, with some accessories.  How do you go about for your editorial work? Is there a different thought process in place when you are working on a campaign, as compared to regular, everyday styling for celebrities? © Instagram/who_wore_what_when All three of them, editorial, campaigns and styling celebrities are remarkably different. Editorials are all about the vibe, the mood and most importantly, the story. Other factors such as the model or the talent, the clothes, they don’t really matter that much.
Campaigns need to tell a story, but the clothes or a product needs to be in focus. The story has to revolve around the clothes or the product - they are the star in a campaign. © Instagram/who_wore_what_when As for styling celebrities, it is all about the person being styled. The main focus is on reconciling what a celebrity wants and what would be best suited for an event.
When styling men, how would you go about it?  © Instagram/who_wore_what_when For us, the important thing is for the look to be very classic, because that is what we tend to bend towards. We try to avoid the newer silhouettes that are available in the market today.
What is that one fashion trend that you don’t like, or don’t agree with? For us, it has to be neons, and knee-length socks with sandals for men. Unless you’re a model walking down the Dior Runway, such a style is something that you should stay away from. What are some must-have staples that men should hoard in their closets? © Instagram/who_wore_what_when Every man should have a perfectly tailored and nicely fitting white shirt in his closet. Along with that, a pair of perfectly fitting high waisted black pants. Other must-haves include a well-tailored suit, a classic watch, and a nice perfume. You need to have a good staple perfume.
What are some basic and often repeated mistakes that men make when putting together an outfit? © Instagram/who_wore_what_when One mistake that almost everybody makes is ignoring their body type and shape when buying clothes. One mistake that most men make invariably is ignoring the fit and the length of their pants. Another mistake that men ought to avoid making, is wearing a baggy shirts with baggy pants. They look very odd when combined.
Given the COVID situation, how is the process of styling celebrities going to change? © Instagram/who_wore_what_when I think sourcing for one will definitely change. I think celebrities will be more open to choosing pieces from their own wardrobes. I think it will be fun to style them in their own pieces.
We have done this for digital shoots, but I think that going forward, this practice will start when we are styling them for events as well. I think we have also realised that comfort is more important than anything, so the kind of silhouettes that we used to see earlier, might also change. How do you see Indian fashion changing and adapting to the “new normal”? © Instagram/who_wore_what_when I see a lot of changes coming our way. People are buying clothes without trying, and returns can only happen after 30 days of buying a piece, so there’s that. Also, designers have moved to the digital space for launching new collections and showcasing their work.
This opens up a larger market. Also, the reach and inclusivity are exponentially larger thanks to social media. We also get to see some of the cooler backstage stuff that adds meaning to the shows. How do you think we are dealing with this issue of sustainable and “eco-friendly” fashion? How often do you get requests, asking you to source from sustainable brands? © Instagram/femina We have always believed in brands that work keeping sustainability in mind, and homegrown brands, who believe in a better tomorrow. We are very happy that it is a topic of conversion that people all over the world are talking about. Going sustainable is not about being sustainable 100 per cent for the sake of it, it has to bring about a larger change, even if what you do is one per cent. You can be sustainable by upcycling or reusing your clothes, you can be sustainable by wearing them more often, and you can be sustainable by buying fabric and getting clothes stitched from your local tailor, instead of investing in a high-end brand. 
As we said, we have always believed in sustainable fashion and homegrown brands. So even if we don’t get a particular request to source from sustainable brands, we end up taking that route. What is your take on androgynous and gender-fluid fashion? Which celebrities can really pull off such a look? © Instagram/who_wore_what_when I think androgynous fashion is something that needs to be spoken about a lot more. Gender-fluidity as a concept is still coming up, and it is fantastic that people are accepting it, even if it is a small percentage. I feel that it is only going to get better.
I think Konkona Sen Sharma, Kalki Koechlin & Radhika Apte have been inclined towards androgynous fashion and they carry it really well. As for men, Jim Sarbh & Ranveer Singh have been seen in some really aesthetic gender-fluid silhouettes. We hope that it gets “normal.” The more people see, the more it gets accepted. How would you define your signature style? © Instagram/who_wore_what_when When it comes to Indian ethnic wear, we tend to stick to the classics. For everything else, we are maximalists, especially in terms of accessorising.
One celebrity who can teach everyone else a lesson or two on how to pull off the Indian aesthetic elegantly, when it comes to menswear? We think Rahul Khanna pulls off the Indian aesthetic very elegantly. One thing men should never do while dressing up in traditional Indian wear? Avoid sequins and sneakers. © Instagram/who_wore_what_when One traditional Indian menswear item you believe every Indian man should have in his wardrobe, and why?
A classic well-tailored bandhgala in black. Ethereal, elysian, and sublime - these words can often be used to describe the ensembles and outfits that we have seen Bollywood celebrities wear. However, more often than not, there is an entire team of people, working behind the scenes to bring us some iconic and memorable statement ensembles. As a series, Style Pundits looks at the eccentric people behind these ensembles and celebrates the ever-changing notions that have come to define India’s sartorial sensibilities and the fluidity of our style.

10 Regular Things Which Become Not-So-Regular When You’ve Got A Sibling To Do It With

We may hate it or we love it, but there is no getting away from the fact that our brother(s) and sister(s) make our life a hell lot better...well for the most part, or at least when they are not being a pain in the a*s. 
But whether we like them much or not, these annoying people we share our house and parents with, also make our life a lot more meaningful and fun. Despite the fact that we’d much rather have them in a choke hold position more often than not, our siblings also have the ability to turn our day around and make it better and happier.  Much like these 10 simple things which became special only because we have siblings to share them/do them with:   1. Attending Boring Family Functions via GIPHY You know how it is, having relatives means there is no getting away from family get-togethers and parties. In such situations our only saving grace turns out to be our sibling who becomes our +1 to such events by default.  And well, to be honest, most often they are the only reason we end up having some good fun while at it. Be it mimicking Dabbu chacha or bitching about cranky Hira maasi, it’s all fun when your sibling is around. 2. Having Rare Soul-Speak Sessions Out Of Nowhere  © UTV Motion Pictures Okay, as rare as these are, they often start off as lectures and somehow, turn into deep-talks with some deep secrets and honest confessions put into the mix. If you’ve been lucky enough to have one of these late, one sleepless night, you know exactly what a profound moment that had been.
3. Sharing A Snack When Hunger Strikes At 3 AM via GIPHY We’ve all been there. Well most of us. Even if it was just me sneaking out of the room to grab a quick bite in the dead of the night, somehow, having my sibling come around to “check up on me” and then gobbling half my Maggi didn’t seem too bad.  Also, it’s the only time when sharing food like civilised humans happens between siblings. 4. Teaming Up To Destroy Opponents Challenging You At ‘Your’ Game  © Shutterstock There is no way in hell somebody gets out alive after challenging a sibling pair at a game they have spent a zillion hours playing and fighting over. But when a third person dares to call for a match, it’s definitely Us vs The Rest Of The World. 
*Reminisces about the golden days of playing Contra* 5. Long Journeys That Suddenly Turn Into Adventures via GIPHY Whether it’s visiting a relative in Ghaziabad or a call of duty at a particular supermarket 18 km away, surviving long drives and lengthy journeys somehow seemed possible when they tagged along.  From cracking the shittiest random jokes, to commenting on West Delhi aunty’s “mad” driving skills, the drives never get boring. 6. Taking ‘Risks’ Knowing You’ll Be Covered If Things Mess Up  © Excel Entertainment Not just sneaking out late at night to celebrate your friend’s birthday in the other part of town but even having those long, late-night calls with your crush, was made into a smooth ride because you knew your sibling was watching out for you and would do anything to cover for you and save you from your dad’s fury upon getting caught.
7. Taking A Second Opinion On ‘How Do I Look?’ via GIPHY Okay, admit it. Haven’t you been thankful on countless occasions when your siblings' brutally honest opinion on your fashion skills saved you from becoming a public embarrassment? True, they can be nasty with their review, but it also helped you look you best most of the time. 8. Devouring The Last Of A Yummy Food Item Together  © Orion Pictures Think about that last bucket of Chocolate Mint ice cream or those biscuits in the hidden stack of goodies saved for the guests. You’ve often finished off the last of the best goods together, mostly to feel less guilty about it later and saving your ass from getting whacked alone when the mischief is discovered. *insert smiling devil emoji*
9. Appreciating A Random Girl/Guy & Exchanging Notes On It via GIPHY It isn’t very rare for siblings to find the same person attractive. No matter straight or gay.  However, there is nothing better than siblings finding the same person attractive and later discussing what exactly they admired about that person, all the while adding “bhabhi hai teri/jiju hain tere” after every point. Never gets old. 10. Holding Long, Useful Wordless Conversations  © UTV Motion Pictures The number of times this superpower has helped and saved siblings during moments of crisis, cannot be counted. All it takes is a few glances and certain looks to convey messages worth at least a couple of words, and it has saved many kids from facing the wrath of their parents.  
How many of these did you relate to and what else should have been on the list? Let us know in the comments.

5 Times UFC Fighters Shocked Their Opponents & MMA Fans With A Knockout To Remember

Often labelled as barbaric and grotesque, Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) is much more than just two people fighting a bloodied war inside a cage. In fact, MMA is one of the most realistic and purest sports around which brings various martial arts, based on striking, grappling and ground fighting, together in a single bout. Today, MMA is undeniably one of the most popular sports around the world and the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) has proved to be its biggest stage. Incorporating multiple forms of martial arts into their overall fighting style, MMA fighters continue to capture the imagination of fans and set new records at pay-per-view events, every time they step foot in the octagon. © Twitter/@UFCEurope Pitting some of the fiercest fighters from all around the globe against each other, the UFC has managed to find a fanbase in places that once didn't seem possible. And, that's largely been made possible by the beasts setting the octagon ablaze with their unmatched skills. From the submission-style chess matches to the bloodied ground-and-pound thrillers, we've seen it all at the UFC events.
But, ask any fan and you'd know that there is nothing more exciting than an unexpected knockout. The sheer feeling of those goosebumps you get when a fighter drops their opponent in a flash is what makes this sport so exciting.  Thus, reliving those pulsating moments, here's a look at 10 most savage knockouts in the UFC history: 1. McGregor's Knockout Punch  At UFC 194, Conor McGregor finally had his moment against the then-pound for pound best fighter in the world Jose Aldo. Going into the fight, few backed the brash Irishman to deliver the goods against the Brazilian but no one could have possibly imagined what eventually happened inside the octagon that day.  Kickstarting his reign, McGregor's very first punch knocked out Aldo and earned him the Featherweight title in 13 seconds - the fastest finish in a UFC title fight. 2. Holly Holm's Brutal Kick  While Gina Carano will probably remain the pioneer of women's MMA, it was undeniably Ronda Rousey, through her association with the UFC, who took it to mainstream audiences.  Crowned the first UFC Women's Bantamweight Champion in 2012, Rousey ran through her opponents with fast finishes and dominated the division. But, her three-year reign as champion finally came to an end after a shocking loss against Holly Holm at UFC 193. A brutal kick to her jaw saw Rousey getting knocked out, leaving her face bloodied with broken teeth and wide cut on the lip. 3. Jon Jones' Head Kick Every sport has got its own set of rivalries and the UFC is no different. While many fighters have forged rivalries over the years, none comes close to the popularity of the one shared between Jon Jones and Daniel Cormier.  The two light heavyweight fighters continue to push each other to their limits. Whether it's their weigh-ins or all-important bouts, there is never a dull moment when it comes to these two. One of those pulsating moments came at UFC 214 where Jones got the better of Cormier with a hard head kick before finishing his opponent off with a barrage of punches against the cage to win the title. 4. Dan Henderson's H-Bomb  While many fighters develop a rivalry in the octagon, Dan Henderson and Michael Bisping forged one as opposing coaches during one of the seasons of 'The Ultimate Fighter' reality series. Thus, when the two were gearing up to face each other at UFC 100, it wasn't hard to guess what was going to happen inside the octagon.  The two fighters got to it right away, but Bisping's usual stick-and-move style of kick-boxing didn't seem to trouble Henderson. Soon, Bisping made the biggest mistake of his fight after circling right into Henderson's notorious right hook, also known as the H-Bomb. Right upon impact, Bisping fell flat on the ground as Henderson landed another elbow to finish him off. 5. Lyoto Machida's Crane Kick  Remember the last fight sequence in the original Karate Kid? Daniel LaRusso was up against Johnny Lawrence in the all-important tournament where he employed the famous 'crane kick', taught to him by Mr Miyagi, to score the crucial point and eventually win the contest.  For years, it was believed that the impactful 'crane kick' looked good on reel, but wouldn't work in a real-life environment. But, Lyoto Machida proved everyone wrong. At UFC 129, Machida didn't just knock Hall of Famer Randy Couture out, but he did so via the same 'crane kick' that everyone deemed a fictional fight move. All hail, the real 'Karate Kid'.

‘GOT’ Being Voted As The Best TV Show Of The 21st Century Has Upset All ‘Breaking Bad’ Fans

Game of Thrones is one of the most iconic shows aired on Television and everyone had high hopes from the series finale season. The watch has literally ended but the last episode of the show demonstrated how every character chose their path in the end. © HBO Some of us were not happy the way the show ended or were disappointed in general with the whole season. As investing years into the TV show, the audience expected the finale season to be beyond our expectations. © HBO Recently, a Digital Spy poll has voted Game Of Thrones as the greatest TV show of the 21st century and the list is closely followed by Stranger Things and Doctor Who.
What came as a surprise to people is that Breaking Bad has been placed 5th on the list. Now, that is a shock for a lot of us but it seems like that people on Twitter didn’t take it well as according to many GOT’s finale wasn’t worth it. So, here’s what people have to say about this – Just to clarify, GOT is a great show, but having 5 great seasons and 2-3 ok seasons does not win you greatest show of 21st century. Breaking Bad and Mad Men can duke it out for the top spot

Sidebar: Even though Sopranos started in 1999 is it still considered a 21 century show? — Sick&Tired (@FuneeClips) July 30, 2020really enjoyed the show. but the best of the 21st century? naaaaaah.... it was great initially but trickled off in the last two seasons for sure. — Lasselelle (@Lasselelle) July 30, 2020*Watches season 8 “game of thrones is the worst tv show of the 21st century!.” — Badass (@g_carroll16) August 1, 2020It was a cultural phenomenon until the final season. Now, it may as well never have existed. pic.twitter.com/VY2kXkc6OI — an cailín cainteach☘️ (@Trillian_01) July 30, 2020It COULD have been the greatest TV show of the 21st Century. — . . . (@Shes_deathProof) July 31, 2020All of the great future TV shows that will come out between 2021 and 2100. pic.twitter.com/SldcjChRaE — Juskeletin Vow Gogh (@j_viviano) August 1, 2020Look, I love some, or even most, episodes and seasons of Game of Thrones, but it is such a mixed bag overall and had such a big drop in quality by no means the "Greatest TV Show Of 21st Century". Most popular? Sure, maybe. But greatest? No. https://t.co/JT8YCRJRzP — Brendan McDonald (@BrenTalksMovies) July 31, 2020Seasons 1-4 were alright. In 5 it started to falter, but still had good episodes. In 6 it fell apart, and by season 8 it was a pile of pig feces, which is probably an insult to pigs.

Greatest TV show of the 21st century? I can think of a few dozen that were greater. — A. Bear Esq., MBE, ICBM, PSU, E173, ISO2171, QED. (@Bearocalypse) July 31, 2020It is many people’s favorite but we are not sure if it is the best show of the 21st century. Also, it got the popular vote which means the show is extremely popular and all of us have watched it. But, is it really the best show of the 21st century? Let us know in the comments section below.

6 Fan Theories About the ‘Money Heist’ Finale That has left us Thrilled & excited

Money Heist has a huge fan base across the globe and it got crazier when Netflix’s originals TV show released its 4th season in April. And now Netflix announced that Part 5 will be released shortly but that’s going to be the final season of the show. 
While the fans were expecting that the heist at the Bank of Spain Should have ended in part four but the end left us all thrilled. So, here are some fan theories that have flooded the internet and we have found the most popular ones for you. Inspector Alicia Sierra will help Professor and the gang. I think Alicia Sierra will make a deal with El Profesor and become a new member of the group. The police threw her under the bus and she wants revenge on them more than she wanted to catch la banda.#LaCasaDePapel4 pic.twitter.com/kpXteXF991 — mia (@lmwh3) April 4, 2020 At the end of part 4, Alicia Sierra was successful in finding the professor and fans think that she will change sides to join the Professor. Fans also think that she’d be doing this to take revenge from the police.
The gang will escape from the main gate of the Bank of Spain. © Netflix The gang didn’t dig any tunnel for escape and so fans believe that they will exit through the main door this time. Also, a Reddit user thinks that the gang will throw gold granules from the sky which will cause chaos and help them escape wearing Dali masks.
Berlin is Alicia Sierra’s husband.  © Netflix In the show, Berlin was suffering from a disease and in Season 4, Alicia also reveals that her husband German died of cancer. Not only this she told Raquel that his last words were, "Turn on the news".
The brainchild behind the popular theory is that Berlin is the capital city of Germany and Alicia’s husband's name was also ‘German’. Alicia Sierra and Tatiana are one person and her heist name is Paris.MONEY HEIST 4 THEORY (Spoiler)

Sierra (the Pregnant Woman) is deep undercover. She is Tatiana. Do you remember who Tatiana is? Tatiana is BERLIN'S EX GIRLFRIEND! Sierra (Tatiana) is part of the Heist and her heist name is Paris. 🤯#MoneyHeist4#LaCasaDePapelS4 pic.twitter.com/cpqnVwYCLL — LANCE (@pajo_leeland) April 5, 2020Apart from Berlin and the Professor, the only person who knew details about the heist was Tatiana and that’s what has led to this theory. People think that Alicia Sierra and Tatiana are one person.  Berlin Might be alive © Netflix According to one theory, which I think is given by a Kyuki Saas Bhi Bahu Thi  fan as a few think that Berlin will return in the final season. Berlin was wearing a vest when he was shot by the police in season 2 and season 4 showed many flashbacks from Berlin’s wedding. All this is leading to a probability that Berlin might not be dead.
Tokyo is the only gang member alive in the end © Netflix The narration of the whole show is done by Tokyo and which makes fans believe that she is the only gang member who survived through it till the end.
Which theories do you believe? Let us know in the comments section below!

'Lootcase' Review: A Total Family Entertainer With Blazing Performances But Run-Of-The-Mill Script

Synopsis: Lootcase is a complete family entertainer. The duration of the film is lengthy with a run-of-the-mill script but it can be overlooked for the blazing performances. It is a light watch full of quirky one-liners and perfectly-timed jokes.  Here's our take on the film What happens when a quintessential middle-class man, striving hard to fulfill his family’s desires, stumbles upon a bag full of cash? Well, that is where the story of this much-awaited comedy drama begins. Also, there is no denying the fact that, Rajesh Krishnan, the director of this film, has brought together the perfect ensemble cast including Kunal Kemmu, Rasika Dugal in lead roles, and Ranvir Shorey, Vijay Raaz and Gajraj Rao among others in pivotal roles.  In this two-hour-twelve-minute film, produced by Fox Star Studios, a middle-class printing press operator Nandan Kumar (played by Kemmu) stumbles upon an unattended suitcase full of cash in a dingy street while returning from a late-night shift and immediately walks away with it, after he asks “Last time pooch raha hoon, kiska suitcase hai?” and there comes no reply. This brings us to the main plot of the film where life takes an unexpected turn for the print staffer Nandan because of bringing home the ill-gotten cash left abandoned on the street Soon, this gets followed by mayhem where a Nat-Geo fan don (played by Vijay Raaz), an utterly corrupt politician (played by Gajraj Rao), and a strict cop (played by Ranvir Shorey) get on the trail in search of the missing suitcase oops “lootcase”. Then ensues the roller-coaster ride of a hilarious journey. Here’s the trailer Kunal Kemmu has an impeccable screen-presence and is absolutely relatable as a man next door. Similarly, Rasika Dugal, as versatile an actor she is, has done complete justice to the role of a homemaker, Lata, who keeps nagging her husband for not earning enough Well, what happens after Nandan brings home the bag full of cash? Does Lata find out about that? What do they do with the money? Well, you will have to watch the film to get answers to these questions. In fact, what’s more interesting is that every supporting character has an unique personality of their own. Like Rao, the corrupt politician, who manipulates his aides for his own benefit by blackmailing them every now and then; Raaz, the don who is insanely obsessed with National Geographic channel as he keeps drawing inferences from the jungle for his life problems; and Shorey, the cop who we don’t know if is good or bad till the end of the movie. Don’t worry we aren’t going to give you any spoilers. The ‘cat and a mouse’ chase between Nandan and the gangsters, who leave no stone unturned to find the suitcase, makes for the gripping narrative. However, a fast-paced storyline and a not-so-lengthy plot would have created a better impact for us - the viewers! Besides, some portions were bland too with slow-moving screenplay and cliche comedy.  All in all, the realistic portrayal of an unexpected short-lived joy of a middle class man, who deals with an ungrateful workplace, a nagging wife and everyday struggles of life, makes us laud Kunal Kemmu. There was no dearth of good acting in this film because of such a promising cast. In most parts, Rao and Raaz totally stole the show with their seasoned acting. However, I'd like to pinpoint that the music wasn't that impressive. Once you finish watching the film you'd hardly remember any lines from the songs. Also, in my opinion, it would have been a delight to watch Dugal in more shades than one. It is definitely a one-time-hilarious-watch for the weekend with your family. You can stream it on Disney Plus Hotstar.

5 Smartphones From The Past That Failed Miserably & Never Really Got Off The Ground

The smartphone industry has become extremely competitive where every feature matters today. No matter which price-segment you look at; there’s tough competition from every smartphone company that operates today.  Due to this intense competition, many smartphones have failed miserably in the past and some sold for as little as Rs 70 just to clear stock.  Here are some of the biggest failed smartphones that never got a chance to recover: 1. Microsoft Kin  © Microsoft It is sometimes unfathomable that a company, that has long dominated the personal computer space, has never been able to figure out smartphones. 
However, the Kin devices by Microsoft can’t even be termed as a smartphone as it never had any support for apps. The phone’s full keyboard was only meant for texting and emails which weren’t enough at the time of its launch. The phone was originally made by Sharp and Microsoft later tried to resell the phone as the “Kin” which nobody wanted even then.  2. Sony Xperia Play  © YouTube/Sony Ericsson Developer World Also known as the PlayStation phone, it was a great concept by Sony that was touted to run PlayStation games right on the phone. It had a slider design and had a decent library of games. 
Unfortunately, gamers were not interested in playing console games on their phones at the time and the ones that were interested chose to play touch-screen games like Angry Birds. The launch timing of the phone worked against Sony and ultimately didn’t appeal to neither hardcore gamers nor the masses.  3. Nokia N-Gage © Alophone Nokia was known for taking risks and the company took a major risk with the N-Gage series. While we all love what the phone stands for today; it was a major disaster in terms of sales numbers. It is a part of our 'best Nokia phones ever made' list but unfortunately, in the real world, it never really moved in the market. 
The phone never caught on due to its unique design and was released at a time when flip phones were popular. It didn’t appeal to the mass audience which is why we’ve never seen another N-Gage or a gaming phone from Nokia since then.  I remember there was a time when I could walk in a store where N-Gage units were simply sitting on shelves and not moving at all. I would visit this store every week for buying music CDs and yet this phone was gradually phased out as it never sold like other Nokia phones.  4. HTC First or The First Facebook Phone  © YouTube/Soldier Knows Best Remember, we mentioned a phone that sold for just Rs 70 or 99 cents? This was that phone. The HTC First was referred to as the first Facebook phone that was meant to product Facebook Mobile. The phone was based on Android but had a Facebook Home skin on top which is no longer supported by the company. 
This phone was such a massive failure that it was being sold for the aforementioned price just to clear our inventory and make space for other phones.  5. Amazon Fire Phone  © Yotube/DetroitBorg This phone was made for one sole reason; to promote Amazon products with 3D camera capabilities. The phone was made to “help you go shopping”, however, nobody cared about this phone enough that it prompted Amazon to pull every device from the market in less than a year. 
The company lost millions of dollars and the stock is probably still in one of their warehouses.

Anushka Sharma: The Woman Who Transformed 'Rigid' Virat Kohli Into A Responsible Person

"There is no passion to be found playing small - in settling for a life that is less than the one you are capable of living." Nelson Mandela's famous quote is probably the best way to describe Virat Kohli's love affair with cricket. The Indian captain could have easily been complacent after winning the Under-19 World Cup, but he didn't. Kohli could have relaxed after getting consistent opportunities with the senior Indian cricket team, but he didn't. He surely didn't have to change his lifestyle to become a fitness icon, but he did. Many feel it's his batting that sets him apart, but it's actually the passion he has for cricket that makes him who he is today. It's his passion for cricket that made him one of the best batsmen in the world across formats. It's his passion that has further nurtured him into a ruthless captain. It's passion that defines Kohli's emotional and effervescent character. And, it's also passion that brings out the explosiveness in his actions. © Twitter/@BCCL In his early days, Kohli, owing to his passion and unchecked emotions, was often branded as arrogant and a spoilt brat. Whenever someone fired a salvo at him, unlike his predecessors who let their bat do the talking, Kohli didn't shy away from giving them a piece of his mind. Many even went on to claim that he was excessive in terms of his actions on the field. But, today, he has come a long way from being looked upon as a boorish, angry man. So, what led to such a transformation?
While many feel that the added responsibility as Team India's captain and gaining experience over the years has made Kohli more mature and undeniably a befitting role model for youngsters, the efforts of a woman, who remains the support pillar for the Indian batting sensation, doesn't get enough credit. © Twitter/@IPL For the better part of her dating life with Kohli, Anushka Sharma was branded as unlucky and blamed countless times by fans for the right-hander's dismal performances. Such was the animosity, that whenever the cameras panned over Anushka in the stands, fans jumped to an immediate conclusion that Kohli would get out cheaply in that match.
Being blamed for the poor run of someone you absolutely adore and love is definitely the worst possible thing one can endure. But, Anushka, despite being disappointed with the immoral opinions of fans, never let it affect her relationship with Kohli. Her appearances in the stands did stop for a brief time, but the couple did take their relationship to a whole new level in 2017 after tying the nuptial knot in Italy. © Instagram/@virat.kohli Since then, the duo has been branded as one of the most popular and influential celebrity couples in India. Their love and affection for each other have been setting relationship goals for others. But, as mentioned earlier, not many know what sort of impact Anushka has had on Kohli in his transformation as a person, until now.
While their sweet posts on social media do give us a glimpse of their beautiful relationship, the Indian captain has now revealed just how impactful Anushka has been as a partner for Kohli. Claiming that he is very "grateful and blessed" to have a life partner like Anushka, Kohli credited Anushka for her role in his transformation as a person. © Instagram/@virat.kohli "I give her full credit for making me see different sides of things altogether and I am so grateful that she is my life partner. Because you learn from each other. I was a very close person, I wasn't a very practical person before. So, when you see another person and know that your life partner has a different outlook on things. You invariably are challenged to see another point of view," Kohli said during a candid chat with Mayank on Open Nets With Mayank.
"So, that was something that changed my mindset completely and changed me as a person completely. I was rigid, I did not have an understanding of things. She made me realise a lot of things which have to do with the larger picture like my responsibility as a player setting an example for people in the right manner," the Indian captain added. © Instagram/@virat.kohli "All realisation has come from being with Anushka. I would give full credit to her. It's been an absolute blessing in my life that I found a life partner like her. She has made me change as a person for good," Kohli concluded.
For someone who was forced to endure unwarranted media scrutiny and backlash from fans, it's great to see Anushka getting her due, especially with none other than her loving husband leading the praise.  It's been over two years that the ethereal couple surprised everyone with their secret, fairytale marriage. And, since then, they have been enticing fans with their love and affection for each other, setting relationship goals and inspiring others to fall in love.

Microsoft's Ultra-Realistic 'Flight Simulator' Looks Like A Perfect Game For Those Who Miss Flying

With Microsoft's Flight Simulator, you can essentially fly anywhere in the world. Yes, it's true. In fact, the game is so good that you can even find your house in the game which will look pretty much how it looks IRL. So the game, as the name suggests, is a flying simulator, which means you get to fly planes around the globe and get a feel for flying.  Perfect at a time when we can't fly during this pandemic, right? Well, yes. You can either choose to fly the plane yourself, which by the way, will take a lot of skill. We've been told that it's like flying a real airplane, so you'll need a lot of training before you can take off. But don't worry, there's also an autopilot mode that you can turn on and just watch it take you places.
Advanced GameplayThis is said to be one of the most advanced and ultra-realistic flight simulators around. If, for instance, it takes 6 hours to reach from a particular source to destination in real life via an airplane, it'll take the exact same amount of time in the game too. So, if you feel like flying an Airbus from, say, San Fransisco to Las Vegas, then make sure you have 1.30 hours to stick around because that's how much it'll take you, both in real-life and in-game. © Micrsoft Microsoft Flight Simulator ideal specsCPU: Ryzen 7 Pro 2700X / Intel i7-9800X GPU: Radeon VII / Nvidia RTX 2080 VRAM: 8GB RAM: 32GB HDD: 150GB (SSD recommended) Bandwidth: 50 Mbps  We suggest you try to hit the idea requirements to get the full experience of the title.  Microsoft's Flight Simulator will be available on PC and Xbox One and it comes out on August 18. This one is definitely worth checking out so keep an eye on it.
