Sachin Tendulkar Never Used ‘God', Virat Kohli Didn't Write ‘King': Fans Troll Shubman Gill For ‘Prince' Bat Sticker
Shubman Gill is all set to lead India in the upcoming Test series against England starting June 2025, but his captaincy debut is already making headlines—not for cricket, but for his bat sticker. Fans spotted the word 'Prince' written below the MRF Genius logo on his bat and began trolling the young star on social media. Carrying A Legendary Legacy Gill is the latest batter to sign a bat sponsorship deal with MRF, a brand that has been associated with cricketing greats like Sachin Tendulkar, Brian Lara, AB de Villiers, and Virat Kohli. These icons proudly carried the Genius sticker on their bats but never added any personal nickname. So when Gill's bat was seen carrying the word "Prince" along with "MRF Genius", many fans felt it was too bold, especially before proving himself fully in Test cricket. Why 'Prince' Is Causing A Stir The Overhyped "Prince" of Indian Cricket Shubman Gill is so self-obsessed. Who even called you the Prince? A so-called 'Prince of ICT with a poor SENA record, a below 35 Test average, and zero overseas centuries across all formats after 5 years in his international career. — Niik (@Niiki099) June 11, 2025 The nickname 'Prince' was originally linked to Brian Lara, one of the greatest batters of all time. Over time, fans also started calling Gill 'Prince' as a sign of admiration and expectations. However, critics say that adding it to his bat sticker was a step too far. Fans pointed out that Tendulkar never used 'God' and Kohli never had 'King' written on their bats despite being globally known by those titles. Sachin Tendulkar never played with a bat that had "God" written over it and Virat Kohli never played with a bat that had "King" written over it. You get tags with your performances and the tags are given by the greats of the game and not from the social media. (@CricCrazyV) June 11, 2025 Not a New Addition, But Now Under Spotlight Interestingly, the word 'Prince' first appeared on Gill's bat during the IPL 2025 season, but it went largely unnoticed. It came into the spotlight recently after the BCCI released official team photos ahead of the England series. Fans zoomed in and spotted the sticker, triggering online discussions and mixed reactions. Despite the online trolling, Gill seems focused on the job. In his first address as captain, he encouraged his teammates to take every practice session seriously. "Let us play every ball with purpose... It's not about surviving but about discovering our game under pressure," Gill said. His calm and determined words suggest that he's aiming to make a strong start to his captaincy era. MRF, in its statement earlier this year, praised Gill as the right man to carry forward the legacy of batting excellence. "With legends like Sachin Tendulkar, Virat Kohli, and Brian Lara having graced the iconic MRF bat, Shubman Gill now carries forward this tradition," the brand said. Upcoming England Series Big Test For Shubhman Gill The upcoming five-match Test series against England will be played from June to August 2025 at Headingley (Leeds), Edgbaston (Birmingham), Lord's, The Oval (London), and Old Trafford (Manchester). It will be a huge opportunity for Gill to prove his leadership skills and silence the critics.

Aamir Khan was once slated to star in this Shah Rukh Khan blockbuster. 31 years later, actor says, ‘I didn't say no…'
The 1993 psychological thriller Darr, directed by the legendary Yash Chopra , was a landmark film that shaped the trajectory of Shah Rukh Khan 's stardom. In the film, Shah Rukh portrayed a deeply disturbed stalker fixated on a woman named Kiran, portrayed by Juhi Chawla. His character, Rahul, was dangerously obsessed, willing to harm anyone who stood between him and the woman he desired. Sunny Deol played the conventional protagonist—a protective fiancé fighting for his love. However, before Shah Rukh was cast as the obsessive antagonist, the role had initially been offered to Aamir Khan . During a recent conversation with Zoom, Aamir revealed that, contrary to popular belief, he hadn't rejected Darr. Instead, he was dismissed from the project. He explained that he had agreed to do the film, but his insistence on a joint script narration with both lead actors led to his removal. Aamir revealed he firmly believes that when a film features more than one central character, all key actors should be present for a collaborative narration. This approach, according to him, ensures mutual understanding and cohesive teamwork. However, Yash Chopra wasn't willing to accommodate that request, leading to Aamir being let go from the film. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Villas For Sale in Dubai Might Surprise You Villas In Dubai | Search Ads Get Rates Undo Aamir further cited his experience with Andaz Apna Apna to support his stance. While working on that film alongside Salman Khan, Aamir insisted that both of them attend the story session together. Salman reportedly skipped the meeting multiple times, but Aamir stood his ground, refusing to proceed until both actors were present. Eventually, the narration took place jointly, adhering to Aamir's condition. After Darr was released, the film garnered significant success and became the third highest-grossing film of the year. Shah Rukh Khan's chilling portrayal of Rahul won critical acclaim and immense popularity, catapulting him into a league of unconventional anti-heroes. However, behind the film's commercial triumph, there was brewing tension on set. Sunny Deol was dissatisfied with how his character was portrayed, feeling that the narrative and screen space favored Shah Rukh's role over his own. This perceived imbalance led to long-standing friction between Sunny and Shah Rukh. Their rift lasted for years, marked by cold shoulders and avoidance in public appearances. However, the bitterness was finally put to rest in 2023 when Shah Rukh attended the success celebration of Gadar 2, a significant gesture that brought closure to their decades-old feud. Darr remains memorable not just for its gripping storyline and performances but also for the behind-the-scenes drama that shaped its casting and legacy.

David Walliams faces backlash for offensive Nazi salute on BBC's Would I Lie To You?
David Walliams reportedly made two Nazi salutes during the recording of the BBC comedy panel show Would I Lie To You? this week, leading to the segment being cut and drawing condemnation from the BBC as well as the show's production company. The incident occurred during a segment featuring Helen George, who was sharing a story about injuring her wrist while waving. Walliams joined in with increasingly exaggerated waves that culminated in the offensive gesture. The Nazi salute incident took place at Pinewood Studios on Tuesday (June 10) during the recording of the Christmas special, was witnessed by audience members. The BBC and Banijay UK, the production company, have issued an apology while condemning Walliams. The BBC described David Walliams's actions as "unacceptable" and added the segment would not be on air. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Many Are Watching Tariffs - Few Are Watching What Nvidia Just Launched Seeking Alpha Read Now Undo The offensive Nazi salute The comedian and children's author made the gestures during a segment in which a fellow panellist discussed a story about injuring their wrist while waving. Walliams reportedly joined in with increasingly vigorous waves, which culminated in him holding out his arm in a Nazi salute. The former Britain's Got Talent judge was on the panel for the BBC One show's Christmas special, which was recorded at Pinewood Studios on Tuesday. Live Events Journalist Sebastian Topan, who was in the audience, contacted the BBC to describe what happened. One part of the show saw Call The Midwife actress Helen George, who took part in Strictly Come Dancing in 2015, being given a prompt to suggest she had sprained her wrist "from waving too much during the Strictly tour". She then had to try to convince the opposing team that her anecdote was true. After demonstrating the wave, which purportedly left her with an injury, she was told that it was "too little" and was encouraged to make a bigger gesture. "Some other panellist was talking when David Walliams started doing the Nazi salute," Topan told the BBC. "I was shocked at what I had seen." According to Topan, there were "patches of quietened gasps and awkward half-laughs and broken clapping" in the audience. The show's host, Gavin & Stacey star Rob Brydon, then told Walliams the show would be broadcast before the 9pm watershed, effectively suggesting his behaviour was not suitable for a family TV audience. As the discussion about George's experience continued, Walliams made the gesture again, adding a sexual gesture with his other hand. The exchange reportedly landed awkwardly in the studio. "The atmosphere was uncomfortable and weird," Topan said. "I think Rob Brydon wanted to get past it as quickly as he could. David Walliams' team-mates looked unsure what to do and were not laughing... It was like an elephant in the room after that as the incident was early on in the recording and so the remainder of the show felt weird." Another audience member posted on X after the recording: "I didn't have David Walliams doing a Nazi salute at the Would I Lie To You? Christmas taping on my 2025 bingo card." Banijay UK, which owns the show's production company Zeppotron, issued a statement regarding the incident. "Any attempt at humour regarding this deeply offensive gesture, whether broadcast or not, is completely unacceptable in any context." "It was immediately acknowledged during the recording that this segment would not be broadcast under any circumstances and we apologise to those who were at the recording for any offence caused.'
