Ranveer Allahbadia shows Osama Bin Laden, Hafiz Abdul Rauf pictures on Piers Morgan show, talks about Pakistan terrorism
Indian Podcaster Ranveer Allahbadia, known for his YouTube channel BeerBiceps, is again in limelight for his response to the India-Pakistan conflict on the Piers Morgan Uncensored show. Ranveer, who runs the podcast The Ranveer Show on his channel, was part of a panel alongside Indian journalist Barkha Dutt, foreign minister of Pakistan Hina Khar and Shehzad Ghias Shaikh from The Pakistan Express.
During the discussion, Ranveer shows a picture of Osama Bin Laden and says, 'He was found 800 metres away from a military base in Pakistan. This is the face the world recognises.' Laden, founder of the terrorist organisation Al-Qaida, was killed by the United States Navy SEALs in Pakistan on May 2, 2011.
Ranveer also shows the photograph of Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) commander Hafiz Abdul Rauf, who is allegedly seen at the funeral of those who got killed in the Indian missile attacks as part of Operation Sindoor.
'This is the face that India recognises, because it's more specific to our narrative. This man is a UN-designated terrorist being celebrated by the Pakistan military. Pakistan never allows these narratives to come out,' he says.
Addressing the ongoing tensions between the two countries, Ranveer says, 'India's attacks were precision-oriented and moderate, and most importantly, they were a retaliation. India has never been an aggressor.'

Fans got a rare glimpse into Aryan Khan 's life off-screen as the soon-to-be director was spotted playing paddle tennis with friends over the weekend. Captured in a video, he is seen engaging in a friendly match, sweating it out for a productive day off. With all his focus on the game and energetic presence on the ground, Aryan showcased both his love for the sport and fitness, leaving fans gushing over him. Keeping it comfortable, Aryan sported an athleisure look in a white T-shirt and black shorts, complete with sneakers. Aryan Khan's casual time out with friends comes amid rising anticipation for his directorial debut. Titled Ba***ds of Bollywood, the Netflix series is said to be a satirical take on the Hindi film industry, with many renowned names expected to make a cameo. The story follows the journey of an outsider and his friends as they navigate the 'chaotic, larger-than-life, yet uncertain world" of Indian cinema. The release date of the show is yet to be announced. Produced under Aryan's father Shah Rukh Khan's production house, the show also features Sara Ali Khan and Ibrahim Ali Khan in cameo appearances, as Saif Ali Khan recently confirmed at Waves Summit 2025. The actor was speaking with Netflix Co-CEO Ted Sarandos when he said, 'I have to say I saw a little bit of that show as well," adding, 'It looked fantastic. My kids have done a little appearance in it." Ted, too, added to the anticipation, as he said, 'We have a show called The Ba***ds of Bollywood coming up that is really fun, and I am going to leave the audience to try to figure out the title completely, but it is so fun. I am four episodes in." Even Karan Johar has spoken highly of Aryan Khan's talent, lauding his work in the most anticipated series. In a chat with Raj Shamani, the filmmaker said, 'I don't know if I'm even supposed to say this, but I have a huge belief in Aryan Khan's directorial talent. I don't want to say anything about his Netflix show, because he'll get very angry, but all I'll say is this: watch out. If there is a King, there will be a Prince. I can say this with confidence, because I've seen the show." While fans await the show's release date, it has been reported that Aryan Khan might skip the promotional events for the series.

JSW Steel, Vedanta, Tata Steel and other metal stocks drop up to 2% as Trump doubles tariffs to 50%
Indian metal stocks started June on a sombre note, with the Nifty Metal index declining 1.6% in early trade on Monday, June 2. Fourteen out of fifteen constituents opened in the red, trading with cuts of up to 2%. Lloyds Metals & Energy, JSW Steel, Welspun Corp, Vedanta, Tata Steel and Steel Authority of India emerged as the top laggards. While it's not just metal counters facing selling pressure on Dalal Street today, the red wave swept across the board as global trade tensions resurfaced, triggering risk-off sentiment among investors. US President Donald Trump last week intensified trade tensions, announcing he would double tariffs on steel and aluminum imports and accusing China of violating a prior agreement to ease tariffs. Speaking at a rally in Pennsylvania, Trump said the US would raise steel tariffs from 25% to 50% starting next week while highlighting the partnership between Japan's Nippon Steel and US Steel. Later, taking to his Truth Social account, Trump wrote, 'It is my great honor to raise the tariffs on steel and aluminium from 25% to 50%, effective Wednesday, June 4th. Our steel and aluminum industries are coming back like never before. This will be yet another BIG jolt of great news for our wonderful steel and aluminum workers. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!' The announcement comes amid an ongoing legal battle over the legality of some of Trump's tariff policies. An appeals court has allowed the case to proceed after the Court of International Trade ordered a halt to the taxes. Trump accused China of violating a tariff truce reached in early May—a claim Beijing rejected, countering with accusations of US wrongdoing. China, the world's largest steel producer and exporter, has seen its steel exports to the US decline significantly since the 25% tariff was imposed in 2018. While India's exports of steel and aluminium to the US are limited, the drop in metal stocks occurred amid growing concerns that a potential rise in tariffs could impact global metal demand. A call between Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping is expected later this week in a possible effort to ease trade tensions. On the economic front, Chinese factory activity data contracted at a slower pace in May than the month prior, also aiding the selling pressure in metal stocks today. As tariff headlines once again dominate global markets, Asian indices opened in the red on Monday, with the Nifty 50 and Sensex falling nearly 1% in early trade. Rising geopolitical tensions between Ukraine and Russia also pushed investors toward safe-haven assets, leading to a sharp decline in equities. According to Dr VK Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist at Geojit Financial Services, the market structure currently supports a continuation of the ongoing consolidation phase. He noted that global headwinds—particularly renewed tariff concerns—are likely to restrain any breakout rally. However, strong domestic tailwinds may offer support at lower levels. He added that the recent announcement of 50% tariffs on steel and aluminium by President Trump signals ongoing uncertainty in the global trade environment, which may act as a significant headwind for markets. On the domestic front, however, factors such as better-than-expected Q4 GDP growth at 7.4%, improving trends in consumption and capital expenditure, low inflation, and the prospect of continued rate cuts present a solid foundation for sustained economic growth in FY26. The only near-term challenge, he pointed out, is weak earnings growth. If leading indicators begin to reflect a recovery, the market has a strong chance of breaking out of its current range and moving higher.
