‘Best gossip buddy': Sanjana Ganesan's banter about life with Jasprit Bumrah wins hearts on the Internet
Banter between couples – celebrity or not – can make for some of the most charming, relatable content. In a recent podcast appearance, sports journalist and cricket anchor Sanjana Ganesan offered a candid look into her life with cricketer husband Jasprit Bumrah, and the Internet is loving it.
Speaking on the podcast Moments of Silence hosted by Instagram influencers Sakshi Shivdasani and Naina Bhan, Ganesan shared how Bumrah is her 'best gossip buddy'. The two, she said, love lounging at home watching Netflix, indulging in chocolates, and catching up on work gossip.
The now-viral clip also revealed a fun behind-the-scenes moment from their professional lives. Ganesan, who has interviewed Bumrah during matches, recalled how he often tries to throw her off by winking or smiling during serious segments. 'I try to stay focused and in journalist mode, but he knows exactly how to break that,' she said, laughing.
The clip was posted on the podcast's Instagram page, @momentofsilencepod, with the caption, ''Interviewed a true inspiration this week — she's got it all (except your fav cricketer's phone number)! Stream now on Spotify!'
The video has amassed 685K views and 42.5K likes on the platform.

Reacting to the video, a user commented, 'You carry strength with such grace, Sanjana di. Your poise, confidence, and calm presence are truly inspiring. Women like you redefine elegance.'
Another user wrote, 'By far THE BEST EPISODE! Love how you highlighted her success and career without making it just about the husband. I knew I was a problem when I got excited thinking all the questions are going to be around cricket and 'the husband'.' One Instagram user said, 'Sanjana you are looking so beautiful.'
However, not all feedback was positive. One user criticised the interviewers, saying, 'This was the best guest you had. I love you guys, but this was not your finest moment. Good questions were not put and you were not well prepared.'
In the episode, Ganesan also touched upon her Miss India journey, college life, and thoughts on motherhood.

Cloudy skies can't dim joy as thousands fill nation's capital for World Pride parade
WASHINGTON — Gray skies and drizzle gave way to sunshine, multicolored flags and celebrations as the nation's capital held the World Pride parade Saturday. Tens of thousands of people participated in parades and other festivities, in defiance of what activists say is an unprecedented assault on the LGBTQ community that challenges the rights many have fought for over the years. A rainbow flag the length of three football fields flowed through the streets, carried by 500 members of the Gay Men's Chorus of Washington, D.C., to kick off the parade. Behind them, people waved Pride flags and flags representing the transgender, asexual and bisexual communities from atop a bus. Singer-songwriter and actor Reneé Rapp laughed and blew kisses from the back of a pickup truck draped with a transgender flag while Laverne Cox, a transgender actress and activist known for her role in Netflix's 'Orange is the New Black,' waved from an open convertible. 'Pride means us looking out for each other no matter what,' she declared to the crowd as the convertible rolled to a stop. 'We know how to be there for each other.' Many LGBTQ travelers have expressed concerns or decided to skip World Pride due to anxieties about safety, border policies and a hostile political climate that they say hearkens back to another time. But that did not keep international travelers and other participants away, with groups visible from Iran, Namibia, Kenya and Russia. Along the parade route, hundreds gathered outside the National City Christian Church as rainbow flags and balloons lined its steps and columns. A child with rainbow face paint blew bubbles at the base of the steps while Whitney Houston's 'I Wanna Dance with Somebody' blared from loudspeakers.' 'D.C. is already one of the biggest cities in the country for celebrating Pride,' said Cheo White, 33, from Annapolis, Maryland, 'But we are all collectively more united and turning out more because of what's happening in the White House.' Many have said the gathering has taken on a new meaning amid the Trump administration's aggressive policies against protections for transgender Americans and diversity, equity and inclusion programs. White's partner, Nick Kerver, 26, who was visiting from Toledo, Ohio, said Pride has 'always been a political tool' but has taken on more importance this year amid mounting threats to the LGBTQ community, especially transgender and nonbinary Americans.' 'It feels more important than ever,' Kerver said while wearing a rainbow hat, sunglasses and a T-shirt. 'But we also have to get involved in our local communities too.' David Begler, a 58-year-old gay man from Philadelphia, expressed disappointment that many international travelers felt unsafe visiting D.C. for World Pride but said he appreciates its presence in the city during this political climate. 'It's the perfect time to have World Pride in D.C.,' Begler said. 'We need it right now. I want us to send a message to the White House to focus on uplifting each other instead of dividing.' Stay DeRoux, 36, usually plans a day trip to D.C. Pride from her home in Fredericksburg, Virginia. But this year, she and her wife, Deenie DeRoux, planned a full weekend. ''This is a really big year,' Stay DeRoux said. 'There's been a lot of turmoil. So it's an amazing thing to be among allies, among people who love because we've experienced so much hate on a daily basis.' For the day, the idea of threats and opposition took a backseat to the celebration. Streets were closed, but filled with floats, and impromptu parties broke out with music and food in streets adjoining the parade route. Johnny Cervantes Jr., dressed in a black suit and top hat, headed to a grandstand at a church themed float to marry his partner of 28 years, Freddie Lutz, owner of Freddie's Beach Bar and Restaurant in Arlington, Virginia. Events culminate tomorrow with a rally and protest March Sunday and a giant street party and concert covering a multi-block stretch of Pennsylvania Avenue. 'This is World Pride in the best city in the world,' Mayor Muriel Bowser declared as she walked the parade hand-in-hand with her daughter, Miranda.

Have Prince Harry and Meghan Markle lost it? Royal Family source makes shocking claim after ‘fake bump' video goes viral
Meghan Markle recently took to Instagram to post a video of herself twerking while being pregnant with Princess Lili, but a Royal Palace source has reportedly told DailyMail that the general notion around the Royal Family is that Prince Harry and Markle have 'completely lost it.' The video released by Markle shows her twerking with her baby bump. She wrote in the caption, "Four years ago today, this also happened. Both of our children were a week past their due dates… so when spicy food, all that walking, and acupuncture didn't work-there was only one thing left to do!" She posted this on the occasion of Princess Lili's birthday, as Markle was pregnant with her at the time of filming this clip. According to Daily Mail, this video is being considered 'tragic' by the Royal Palace ever since it went viral on the Internet. The main aim of posting the video supposedly was to shut trolls who claim that the couple surrogated their children, but all it has done is add further fuel to the fire due to certain 'loopholes' in the video. Meanwhile, body language experts suggested that it is not physically and mentally possible for Markle to do what was being done by her in the video at that stage of pregnancy.
