History has been made, and Bengaluru is vibing hard. After 18 years of tears, memes, and near-misses, Royal Challengers Bengaluru finally lifted their first IPL trophy, and who better to give us a front-row seat to the madness than queen Anushka Sharma herself?
Bengaluru becomes Bollywood-meets-cricket as Anushka shares parade victory glimpse
On Wednesday, Anushka hit Instagram to bless us with a behind-the-scenes reel of the RCB victory parade, and it is everything. The city was painted in celebratory red, drums were banging, people were screaming, and perched on top of a bus was none other than Virat Kohli, now not just the King of RCB, but the man who finally did it. And yes, wifey Anushka was right there beside him, soaking in the energy of 'Namma Bengaluru,' as she captioned it.

Virat Kohli gets emotional, internet sobs
Post-match, Virat opened up about his partner-in-crime. With teary eyes and a full heart, he called out the years Anushka stood by him, from heartbreaks to almost-wins. He credited her with making it possible for him to chase his dreams, never once wavering in her support. This was not just a trophy win. It was 11 years of partnership, sacrifice, and emotional investment that finally saw glory.

Of course, the whole of Bollywood (and Instagram) has joined in the victory laps. Deepika Padukone, Allu Arjun, Ibrahim Ali Khan, Mahesh Babu, and Vijay Deverakonda all chimed in with celebratory shoutouts. But it was Suniel Shetty who really got us in our feels, sharing a heartwarming video of Anushka wiping Virat's tears post-win.
This parade is not just a celebration, but a cinematic universe
This is not just cricket. This is a Bollywood-level blockbuster with romance, drama, sweat, and finally, sweet, sweet victory. Thanks to Anushka's candid glimpse, fans felt like they were riding that bus right alongside the champs.
RCB's win is more than a sports moment, it is a cultural event. E sala cuo namdu!

RCB ‘invited the whole world' without permission, Karnataka govt tells HC after Bengaluru stampede
The Karnataka government on Wednesday laid the blame for the tragic stampede outside Bengaluru's M Chinnaswamy Stadium on the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) and the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), stating that no formal permission had been sought for the June 4 victory event that left 11 people dead, India Today reported. According to the report, during a hearing before the Karnataka High Court, Advocate General Shashi Kiran Shetty, representing the state, said the event had been publicised irresponsibly by RCB on social media. (Also Read: Bengaluru stampede: CID withdraws custody plea for RCB marketing head Nikhil Sosale and others) He told the court that despite not obtaining clearance, the organisers went ahead and 'invited the whole world.' The High Court was hearing petitions filed by four individuals, including RCB's marketing head Nikhil Sosale, who have challenged their arrest in connection with the incident. The matter is being heard by Justice SR Krishna Kumar. 'Shetty, while laying out a series of allegations against RCB and its partners, told the bench that the franchise did not apply for the mandatory permissions to hold the public celebration,' India Today report added. The state also held the BCCI accountable, arguing that the cricket board had an agreement with RCB to handle key responsibilities such as security, gate and ticket management. Further, the government told the court that no official permissions were granted either for the victory parade or for the celebratory ceremony that followed. Referring to communication received on June 3, just an hour before the IPL final, Shetty argued that it was a mere intimation, not a formal request. He further added that the Karnataka State Cricket Association (KSCA) had only sent an intimation letter, and not a proper application seeking event permission. 'Various entertainment programmes were also planned without approval,' he said. The stampede at the stadium, which hosted a victory celebration after RCB's women's team won the WPL 2024 title, has triggered widespread criticism of the organisers and calls for accountability.

Meet Swades fame Gayatri Joshi's husband, runs a Rs 77,000 crore company, his business is..., his net worth is Rs...,
If you are a Shah Rukh Khan fan, then his film Swades must have made a special place in your heart. Directed by Ashutosh Gowariker, the movie featured Shah Rukh Khan in the lead, and opposite him was Gayatri Joshi. SRK as Mohan and Gayatri as Gita impressed the audience to their core. Though the movie did not meet commercial expectations, the audience hailed both actors' performances. Surprisingly, after receiving critically acclaimed remarks for her performance, Gayatri chose not to be a part of the Bollywood industry anymore. Swades marked her first and last movie. Swades was released in 2004, and in 2005, Gayatri tied the knot with business tycoon Vikas Oberoi. After getting married, Gayatri decided to quit acting and focused on her family. While Gayatri is known to many movie lovers, her husband Vikas Oberoi remains away from the limelight, even after marrying the former actress. Let's take a look at Vikas's achievements. Born in 1969, Vikas is the son of Ranbir Oberoi, who was the founder of Oberoi Realty Ltd. Vikas grew up watching his father handle the real estate business, and he too aimed to follow in his footsteps from a young age. After completing his education, he joined his father in the business. Vikas pursued his higher education at Jai Hind College in Mumbai and later earned a degree through the prestigious Owner/President Management Program at Harvard Business School. As per media reports, in the 1990s, Vikas took over his father's business, and today he is the Chairman and Managing Director of Oberoi Realty Ltd. Vikas Oberoi's Whopping Net Worth According to a report by Forbes, Vikas's net worth is USD 5.8 billion. Media reports claim that Vikas owns a luxurious home at 360 West Worli, Mumbai, where he lives with his wife and kids. The property is reportedly worth Rs 400 crore.
