‘I started with a one-room kitchen apartment': Inside Sunil Grover aka Gutthi's home that overlooks the Mumbai skyline
'Home is where you meet yourself.' Sunil Grover says this the moment he lets you in. The comic we all love as Gutthi isn't showing off a mansion, his is a well-made, lived-in home for his family of three: his wife Aarti, who was also the designer of the house, and his son. 'This is the living room. I eat here. I sit there.' Nothing fancy, just warm-toned sofas, a hand‑painted wall with a 'tree that never needs watering,' and wide windows that look out over the city. Sunil likes the spot because he 'feels like a king sometimes' as he sits there. His wife Aarti chose big glass panels so you can see the view while stirring the pot. 'I like cooking food a lot, but whatever I cook, people don't like eating,' he laughs. Moroccan‑style tiles and a west‑facing window keep the space bright and cool. Sunil started out in a tiny rented place. 'I started with a one-room kitchen apartment, and it was a rented apartment. I was equally happy when I was living in a rented apartment. Doesn't matter how many bedrooms or the carpet‑area that you have. You should be happy.' Bit by bit, he added rooms until he could finally own this house in Mumbai. Upstairs is a nook lined with shelves. One favourite: Yatha‑Sambhav by Sharad Joshi, 'a book full of satirical essays. You must read it.' Next door sits the cosy TV room, soundproofed in memory of his old voice‑over days. 'What I love the most about this house is the doors, the way Aarti's made it. The way the carving has been done,' he added. Aarti joins the tour: 'It has to be heart pleasing, eye pleasing… We go everywhere… but whenever we are back home, we feel, 'Wow, this is our home.'' She talks about the cross‑ventilation, the morning sun, and sofas 'non‑attention‑seeking' except for one bold geometric piece that pops against the neutral palette. Together, they've built a space not for show, but for joy. 'We made this house to please ourselves. We never kind of tried to impress anyone,' she said. Whether it's basking in the morning sunlight, flipping through scripts, or just sitting on the couch enjoying the view, Grover sums it up best: 'Happiness comes from just having a home, whatever size it may be.'

Ozzy Osbourne fans line Birmingham streets to honour Black Sabbath star
By Marissa Davison Ozzy Osbourne fans line Birmingham streets to honour Black Sabbath star BIRMINGHAM, England, - Thousands of heavy metal fans lined the streets of Birmingham on Wednesday for the funeral procession of Black Sabbath frontman Ozzy Osbourne, who died earlier this month at the age of 76. The cortege of the singer known as "The Prince of Darkness" and the "Godfather of Heavy Metal" was driven through his home city in central England before a private funeral. It stopped at a bench dedicated to the musical pioneers, and Osbourne's wife, Sharon, and their family looked at some of the thousands of flowers and tributes left by fans. The family waved and made peace signs to the crowd, many of whom chanted "Ozzy, Ozzy". Osbourne had said he did not want his funeral to be a "mope-fest", and celebration was mixed with sadness on the streets, with a New Orleans-style brass band leading the procession. Graham Croucher, a 58-year-old train driver from Northampton, said Osbourne was an "absolute legend". "He was the soundtrack particularly to my life growing up," he said. "Black Sabbath are the originators of heavy metal and made such great music. And he dared to be different because he was different." This month, Osbourne played a final concert in the city, where a star-studded line-up featuring Metallica, Slayer, Tool and Guns N' Roses paid tribute to Black Sabbath's legacy. Black Sabbath hits "Paranoid", "War Pigs" and "Sabbath Bloody Sabbath" made Osbourne a star in the early 1970s, and his antics on stage, most famously biting the head off a bat, extended his fame far beyond metal music. In 2002, he won new fans when he starred in U.S. reality TV show "The Osbournes", with Sharon and two of his children, Jack and Kelly. He died on July 22. No cause of death was given, but the star had disclosed a Parkinson's disease diagnosis in 2020. This article was generated from an automated news agency feed without modifications to text.

Did a 1999 comic predict Japan's tsunami? Eerie ‘New Baba Vanga' prophecy goes viral
After a powerful 8.8 magnitude earthquake struck Japan's Hokkaido and triggered a tsunami, with warnings issued as far as California, Chile, Ecuador, New Zealand and French Polynesia, an eerie prediction by a Japanese manga artist has sent social media into a frenzy. Ryo Tatsuki, who has been dubbed the 'New Baba Vanga' of Japan, has made a series of predictions that many believe have come true, including the March 2011 Tohoku earthquake and tsunami, the death of Princess Diana and Freddie Mercury, as well as the COVID-19 pandemic. Ryo Tatsuki, in her 1999 manga, predicted a major disaster would strike southern Japan on July 5, 2025.(X/MarioNawfal) However, the one that has shocked many across the globe is the one she made in her 1999 manga, "The Future I Saw." In it, she predicted a major disaster would strike southern Japan on July 5, 2025, and wipe out Japan, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and the Philippines. This year, as the date neared, many manga fans shared anxieties growing around the prediction coming true. As the buzz increased on social media, hashtags like #July5Disaster began trending and flight bookings dropped by 83% from late June to early July. However, now weeks after July 5, an eerily similar disaster has struck Japan and Tatsuki's fans are convinced that her manga warned of the massive earthquake and tsunami. "So are we not going to talk about how Ryo Tatsuki literally predicted the tsunami possibility for July 2025?" said one user. "Ryo Tatsuki, dubbed the 'Japanese Baba Vanga,' warned of a July 2025 mega-tsunami. Today, July 30, a powerful M8.8 quake off Kamchatka triggered real tsunami waves across Japan & the Pacific. Prophecy or coincidence? Science says no link, but the timing is eerie," wrote a second user. Another declared, "Ryo Tatsuki was right on Tsunami. New Baba Vanga's July Prediction came true. A massive 8.7 magnitude earthquake rocked Russia's Kamchatka Peninsula, triggering 4m high tsunami waves. It was the worst quake in decades!" While Japanese officials and scientists had urged the public to disregard her predictions, recent events have forced many to rethink whether her claims are entirely unfounded, even though they lack a scientific basis.
