India wicket-keeper batter Sanju Samson 's journey up to the match-winning 97 against West Indies has been nothing short of a rollercoaster. Despite being India's first-choice T20I opener for more than a year, Samson found himself out of India's playing XI at the start of the tournament after Ishan Kishan 's impressive form. However, now Samson has grabbed his second chance with both hands. Following his incredible knock against West Indies, a pep talk given to him by former India captain Rohit Sharma went viral on social media. Rohit had been present at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai ahead of India's opening game of the tournament against the United States of America (USA). However, Samson did not feature in India's playing XI. This was when Rohit walked up to Samson to offer him support. " Kaisa hai? Dukhi mat ho bhai. It is a long tournament, kabhi bhi mauka aa sakta hai ("How are you? Don't be disheartened. It is a long tournament. The op...

The United Arab Emirates has announced that the circulation of "unverified information about wars, security or national safety" will be punishable with a jail term and/or a steep fine. Under the country's cybercrime law, the possible penalties will include detention or in more serious cases, a jail term of several years. The fine could be between AED 100,000 to 1000,000.  It is illegal, UAE said, to spread "false news, rumours or misleading information".

All the targets house air-bases with US assets.  Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps has claimed that all the targets have been struck "by powerful blows of Iranian missiles". "This operation will continue r...

The Shahed drone's biggest strength is that it is very cheap to build and deploy, but gives the effect of a much more powerful weapon than its size. Others may be forced to expend their pricey anti-drone missiles, making interception of the Shahed drones a costly affair. Most weaponised drones have range and weight limitations. The Shahed works around these by acting as a drone and a cruise missile rolled into one. The Shahed-136, for example, can reach a maximum of 2,500 km. Iran has been able to launch the Shahed drones from deep within its territory, far away from any prying eyes. This has ensured their survivability and unpredictableness. Its payload capability is also good, at par with its range strength. The Shahed drones fly at very low altitude, powered by a basic piston propulsion system. When these qualities are combined with its small radar signature, they are hard to detect in areas where the terrain is uneven. Some have called the Shahed drones' engine noise t...

Dubai's Burj Khalifa, a $1.5 billion icon at the heart of a $20 billion district, was evacuated after explosions were heard across the city as Iran launched retaliatory missile strikes targeting US military locations across the Gulf following joint American and Israeli attacks on Tehran, putting fresh focus not just on regional tensions, but on how the world's tallest tower is insured against war. Iran carried out attacks targeting locations in Abu Dhabi and Dubai in the United Arab Emirates, as well as Doha in Qatar and Riyadh in Saudi Arabia. Residents in Dubai told Agence France-Presse they heard loud explosions and saw missiles moving across the sky.

A friendly conversation on a train journey turned into a nightmare for a Delhi woman after a fellow passenger allegedly hijacked her SIM card to drain her credit cards. Delhi Police have arrested two brothers who specialised in stealing "Unique Porting Codes" (UPC) from unsuspecting travellers under the pretext of making an urgent phone call. The duo allegedly gained the trust of fellow passengers while travelling, stole their mobile phone porting codes, and drained their bank accounts. The investigation began following a complaint from Vandana Gupta, a resident of Rohini Sector 6. In January, while returning to Delhi from Kanpur with her son, she met a man named Sachin Gupta on the train. After gaining her trust during the journey, Sachin asked to borrow both Vandana's and her son's mobile phones on the pretext of making an urgent call. He returned the devices shortly after, but the damage was already done. On January 23, the victim realised something was wrong ...

When a four-year-old boy went missing from Rajasthan's Dausa district in 2020, his family held onto the hope that they would find him one day. Six years later, that hope has turned into a nightmare: the child was allegedly murdered by his own uncle and aunt and buried beside the Delhi-Mumbai Expressway. On August 16, 2020, Prince, also known as Tillu, disappeared while playing in his courtyard. Despite an exhaustive search by his family, no clues were found. In 2021, the family filed a habeas corpus petition in the High Court, which prompted a more intense investigation. The case proved difficult -- seven different investigation officers were replaced over the years. Eventually, the court directed the administration to recover the child at all costs. Nearly five years after the disappearance, the Rajasthan Police finally cracked the case. Police are currently digging near the Delhi-Mumbai Expressway to recover the child's body. To assist in the operation, a Ground Penetratin...

Prime Minister Narendra Modi's trademark “hugplomacy”, where he embraces world leaders in his trademark hug, has once again drawn international attention after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu praised what he called the famous “Modi hug”. “It's been a wondrous friendship, both personally, between the two of us, and between our two countries and our two peoples,” Netanyahu said. Netanyahu recalled the moment the two leaders greeted each other warmly moments after PM Modi landed in Israel. “Prime Minister Modi's personal embrace is something special-it's called the ‘Modi hug.' It's well known around the world, and when you hug someone closely, truly, you know it's not an act. It's a real thing,” he said. “So I want to return the hug here from every single one of the Knesset members; it's not only an indication of the personal relations and the personal friendship between us, but it really reflects the warmth of the tie between our two peop...

As Dhurandhar: The Revenge prepares for its theatrical release on March 19, Ram Gopal Varma has made a bold claim about the film. The filmmaker believes the sequel could change the way mainstream Indian cinema is made. Ram Gopal Varma Hails Dhurandhar RGV did not hold back in his praise and wrote, " DHURANDAR 2 is an ASTEROID which might end the DINOSAUR era @AdityaDharFilms DHURANDHAR 2 has high chances of completely and permanently obliterating the pan india south films movement by establishing a brand new benchmark with ultra realistic making, genuine character depths etc that actually engage the audience's brain while still delivering a raw visceral impact." He further suggested that the film could drastically alter audience expectations, adding, "Once audiences taste this new standard, every film currently under production in the previous masala style can become instantly endangered."
