    Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor’s Simple Yet Stylish Kitchen Revealed!

    A famous chef recently shared a fun video on Instagram, giving fans a sneak peek into the kitchen of actor couple Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor. Right now, the couple lives in Pali Hill with their little girl, Raha. However, they will soon move into a brand-new six-story house in Bandra. They have been staying in their current home, called Vastu, since they got married in 2022.

    In the video, the chefs were excited to cook for Alia, Ranbir, and baby Raha. When they entered the kitchen, viewers noticed it was simple and not too fancy. Alia and Ranbir added some personal touches, like cute animal magnets on the fridge and a drawing of their family on the wall, along with a TV below it.

    The kitchen had many useful appliances and was bright, thanks to a big window. There was also centralized air conditioning and a ceiling fan to keep it cool. The chefs made lots of yummy dishes like pasta, biryani, pizza, chicken, and desserts. They wrote in the video, “Today, we are cooking for #RanbirKapoor, @AliaBhatt, and baby Raha!”

    Many people commented on the post, saying they found the kitchen “basic and simple” and that it looked designed for everyday use. Some pointed out that the kitchen is huge for an apartment in expensive Pali Hill, while others admired the family photo on the wall.

    Earlier this year, it was reported that Ranbir plans to name their new bungalow after Raha, making her the “youngest and richest star kid” in Bollywood. This new luxurious home costs around ₹250 crore and is said to be the most expensive celebrity house in Mumbai, even more than Shah Rukh Khan’s Mannat and Amitabh Bachchan’s Jalsa. There’s also talk that the entire Kapoor family will live together in this beautiful new house.

  • Tailor’s Tag Leads to Arrests in Shocking Odisha Murder Case

    Tailor’s Tag Leads to Arrests in Shocking Odisha Murder Case

    A blood-stained shirt found near a river helped the Odisha Police solve a mysterious murder case involving a 35-year-old woman. The woman’s body was discovered on December 13 on the banks of the Kathjodi River in Cuttack. Since no one reported her missing, police were unsure how to identify her.

    The police found a weapon, a chopper, and tried to piece together the clues. There were tattoos on the woman’s arms, but they didn’t help in identifying her. However, they discovered a blood-stained shirt and pants that had a tailor’s tag from ‘New Star Tailors.’

    The police decided to investigate this tag and found several tailors with similar names across Odisha. They checked each one but found no match. Then, a tailor in Ganjam told them that such tags are also used in Gujarat. So, they contacted the Gujarat police, who located a tailor in Surat.

    The tailor revealed that the shirt was made for a customer named ‘Babu.’ He also mentioned he had sent ₹100 to ‘Babu’ via mobile pay. The police tracked down the mobile number, which led them to Jaganath Duhuri, known as Babu.

    Jaganath was found traveling by train back to Surat when the police arrested him. During questioning, he confessed that he was the deceased woman’s brother-in-law and had committed the crime with the help of his brother, Balaram Duhuri (the woman’s husband), and his cousin, Hapi Duhuri. All three men have been arrested.

    The police said the motive behind this crime was a long-standing marital disagreement between the woman and her husband. Balaram was suspicious that she was having an affair.

  • India Faces Top Order Collapse Against Australia – Match Highlights

    India Faces Top Order Collapse Against Australia – Match Highlights

    Team India faced another difficult day at the GABBA, Brisbane, during the third Test against Australia. On Day 3, they found themselves in trouble at 51 runs with 4 players out after just 17 overs, and the game was often delayed by rain.

    Pacer Mitchell Starc got things rolling by taking two quick wickets, and Josh Hazlewood took one more. India was in a tough spot at 22 runs for 3 wickets before lunch, while Australia had scored a massive 445 in their first innings.

    Starc removed Yashasvi Jaiswal right away on the second ball of India’s innings. Shubman Gill followed him shortly after, caught brilliantly by Mitchell Marsh in the slips. Virat Kohli, who has struggled lately, chased a wide ball and ended up giving a catch to wicketkeeper Alex Carey.

    Rishabh Pant was also dismissed cheaply, caught behind off Pat Cummins while trying to play a risky shot. KL Rahul was the last hope, batting on 33 not out, but Rohit Sharma is yet to score as he remains not out at zero.

    Earlier, Australia scored 445 all out thanks to great centuries from Travis Head and Steve Smith. Wicketkeeper Alex Carey chipped in with a quick 70 runs before he was out. Jasprit Bumrah had a good day with the ball, taking 6 wickets for 76 runs.

  • Exciting Race for World Test Championship: India’s Path to Glory!

    Exciting Race for World Test Championship: India’s Path to Glory!

    The competition to grab the two spots in the World Test Championship (WTC) final is getting more thrilling! Four teams are still in the mix: South Africa, India, Australia, and Sri Lanka. Right now, South Africa is leading the WTC table, with Australia and India right behind them in second and third place.

    India and Australia are currently in a five-match series, and the score is tied at 1-1 after two matches. Meanwhile, South Africa has two upcoming Tests against Pakistan starting on December 26. Australia will also play two more Tests against Sri Lanka soon.

    On Day 3 of the current Test between India and Australia, the weather wasn’t great! Just 34 overs were played because of rain. Australia scored 445 runs and got all out. In response, India struggled and lost four wickets, leaving them at 51 runs in only 17 overs. The rain forecast isn’t promising, so this match might also end in a draw.

    If the match ends without a winner, the series will be tied, with two games left in Melbourne and Sydney. Here’s how India can still qualify for the WTC finals, even if the Brisbane Test ends in a draw:

    – For India to qualify without worrying about other teams, they need to win the last two Tests in Melbourne and Sydney.

    – If India only wins the series 2-1, then Sri Lanka must not lose all their matches against Australia.

    – If India draws the series 2-2, then Sri Lanka needs to win at least one match against Australia.

    – If India draws the series 1-1, Sri Lanka must also draw or win against Australia.

    But if India loses the series, they will be out of the race!

  • Suryansh Shedge’s Incredible 36s: A Rising Star in T20 Cricket!

    Suryansh Shedge’s Incredible 36s: A Rising Star in T20 Cricket!

    Suryansh Shedge, a 21-year-old cricketer from Mumbai, is making a name for himself in the world of cricket. Recently, he scored two amazing runs of 36 in just five days during the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy.

    His first 36 runs came on December 11 against Vidarbha. Mumbai needed 65 runs to win with only 29 balls left. Shedge hit four huge shots—three sixes and one four—making it much easier for his team.

    Then, in the final against Madhya Pradesh, he scored another 36 runs, this time in just 15 balls. With 46 runs needed in 34 balls, Shedge stayed calm. He hit two sixes off Venkatesh Iyer and finished off with 4, 6, and 6 against Tripuresh Singh, leading his team to victory.

    Being a finisher in T20 cricket can be very stressful, but Shedge handled the pressure like a champ. “I knew I’d be batting at number 5 or 6, so I practiced setting goals for hitting certain runs in six balls,” he shared. This way, he prepared himself to be ready when the match got tough.

    Shedge believes it’s crucial to stay cool and not think too much before hitting the ball. He said, “I don’t think about shots until the bowler starts running. If I hesitate, I might miss, but when I commit, I usually connect.”

    He admires big hitters like Hardik Pandya and Ben Stokes for their powerful batting skills. Shedge also embraces competition and pressure because it pushes him to improve. He calms his nerves with breathing exercises before each match.

    His captain, Shreyas Iyer, has confidence in him too. “I’ve seen him work hard and improve. His talent and his dedication to the game are amazing,” said Iyer.

    Shedge faced a tough year in 2023 when he had a serious back injury and missed a chance to join the Lucknow Super Giants. It was hard for him, but with support from his family and coaches, he got through it.

    Besides playing, Shedge loves watching cricket videos on YouTube to learn and grow. He believes that cricket will eventually return all the love he has for the game.

  • Varun Dhawan’s ‘Baby John’: A Bold Adaptation of ‘Theri’ Coming This Christmas

    Varun Dhawan’s ‘Baby John’: A Bold Adaptation of ‘Theri’ Coming This Christmas

    Varun Dhawan is excited about his new movie called “Baby John,” which is similar to the popular Tamil movie “Theri” from 2016. Last week, he shared an action-packed trailer that got fans buzzing. In an interview, Varun explained that “Baby John” isn’t just a copy of “Theri” but is more of an ‘adaptation.’

    He mentioned that the director, Atlee, wanted to change some parts of the story to make it fit better for Hindi audiences. Varun said, “If someone expects it to be exactly like the original, they will be disappointed, because it’s more like a new version.”

    In “Baby John,” Varun plays a brave police officer and a single dad who stands up to bad guys. He has an important line in the film: “Many like me might have come before, but I have come here for the first time.” This sets the stage for his heroic adventure.

    The film will be released in theaters this Christmas and features Wamiqa Gabbi, Keerthy Suresh, and Jackie Shroff, with a special appearance by Salman Khan.

  • Germany: Key Laws at Risk as Early Elections Approach

    Germany: Key Laws at Risk as Early Elections Approach

    Germany’s political parties haven’t worked together much since Chancellor Olaf Scholz’s coalition fell apart in November. Even though the collaboration between the Free Democrats (FDP) and the government ended, there’s a chance that some important laws could still be passed before the early elections set for February 23.

    After the FDP left the coalition, Scholz’s government lost its majority, leaving many planned laws uncertain. However, on Friday, the FDP said it would support some of the laws that were already close to being finished. Scholz is set to hold a vote of confidence on Monday and has asked lawmakers to unite and finalize important measures before the elections.

    What Laws Could Get Passed This Week?

    The old coalition parties – the SPD, Greens, and FDP – agreed on Friday to provide income tax relief and raise child benefits. This plan means that over €11 billion (around $11.6 billion) in tax cuts will be available for 2025 and 2026. Additionally, child benefit payments will increase by €5, bringing the total to €255 each month.

    Another key item is the Deutschlandticket, which allows unlimited travel on local transport for a monthly fee of €58 next year. Many people like this idea, but it needs approval for its €1.5 billion cost. Conservative leader Friedrich Merz has stated he will support it.

    There might also be new measures to protect Germany’s constitutional court. This court might be at risk if parties on the right or left gain enough seats after the election. This could stop new judges from being appointed, causing delays in the court’s work.

    What Laws Probably Won’t Pass?

    A law to build more hydrogen-ready power stations was in the works but will likely not happen. These stations are needed to support wind and solar energy, but there isn’t enough time to pass the law. New Finance Minister Joerg Kukies mentioned that the 2025 budget also won’t pass, but the old plan will be used temporarily until a new government takes over.

    While the cabinet wanted to extend a rent freeze until 2029, Merz said his party wouldn’t agree because the current freeze lasts until the end of 2025. Scholz’s idea to lower the VAT on food from 7% to 5% is also not expected to work, as both conservatives and FDP think it’s just a move for election votes.

    Scholz’s plan for a guaranteed minimum pension of 48% of the average wage is also unlikely to get enough support. His proposal to limit electricity transmission costs to 3 cents per kilowatt-hour also lacks backing from the opposition.

  • Bashar Al Assad’s Alleged $250 Million Cash Flow to Russia Revealed!

    Bashar Al Assad’s Alleged $250 Million Cash Flow to Russia Revealed!

    Former Syrian President Bashar Al Assad reportedly sent a huge amount of money, around $250 million, to Moscow between 2018 and 2019. This money was transferred in US dollars and Euros. Reports say this shows how strong Assad’s financial ties were with Russia during the Syrian Civil War.

    Documents indicated that flights from the Syrian Central Bank brought cash to Vnukovo Airport in Moscow, where it was put into Russian banks. Russia has been a major supporter of Assad ever since the war began in Syria in 2011, especially when Assad was running low on money.

    These transactions took place from March 2018 to September 2019, right after Russian forces helped Assad fight against rebels trying to take over Damascus. The cash transfers included big amounts, sometimes $10 million or $20 million at a time, mostly using $100 bills and €500 bills.

    Recently, rebel groups, led by Hayat Tahrir Al Sham, got very close to Damascus after quickly taking control of several cities, including Aleppo. But where was Assad? He left Syria early one morning and flew to Russia. The Kremlin later confirmed that he now has political asylum there.
