Virat Kohli's departure from Test and T20I cricket means his loyal fan base has only one format to look forward to, and it's the One Day Internationals. However, a wild picture of Kohli sporting an uncharacteristically grey beard in the UK brought back the despairing feeling in the cricket community, as it seemed like it was finally time to say goodbye to the 36-year-old cricketer who is approaching the tail end of his celebrated career. But, hey, all is not lost just yet, at least going by the 'like" pressed by the cricket superstar on a photo on Instagram.

Janhvi Kapoor answers why she said ‘Bharat Mata Ki Jai' at a Janmashtami event, becoming ‘meme material': ‘Roz bolungi…'

Actress Janhvi Kapoor recently faced trolling after she joined the crowd in saying 'Bharat Mata Ki Jai' during a Janmashtami event. Janhvi had attended the event to promote her upcoming film Param Sundari, in which she co-stars with Sidharth Malhotra. While Janhvi became a 'meme material' over chanting the slogan praising the country, the actress had now reacted to the backlash on social media. Taking to her Instagram stories, Janhvi Kapoor shared the actual video and explained why she joined the crowd in saying 'Bharat Mata Ki Jai'. In the video, Janhvi was just seen joining the host, who loudly cheered 'Bharat Mata Ki Jai' as the Dahi Handi procession commenced. Janhvi wrote, 'Just for context, full video lol. Unke bolne ke baad nahi bolti toh problem, aur bolo toh bhi video ko kaat ke meme material (laughing face emoji). (If I hadn't said the slogan after him, it would have been a problem, and now that I said it, then cut the video and make it meme material.)'

(folded hands, Indian flag emojis). (By the way, not just on Janmashtami, I will say it every day, Bharat Mata ki Jai.)' Janhvi Kapoor even gave a speech in Marathi at the event, where she asked people to watch her film on August 29th. Janhvi Kapoor will be seen alongside Sidharth Malhotra in Param Sundari. The rom-com produced by Maddock Films and directed by Tushar Jalota revolves around a boy from Delhi and a girl from Kerala. Ever since the film's trailer was released, many have been comparing Param Sundari to SRK-Deepika Padukone's Chennai Express. Other than Janhvi and Sidharth, Param Sundari also stars Rajeev Khandelwal and Aakash Dahiya in important roles. The film will release in theaters on 29th August.

Korean woman runs into trouble in Turkey for showing peace sign: ‘As a Turkish, I never heard that sign is banned'

It is not uncommon for people to show a peace sign while taking selfies or making reels. That is what this Korean woman was doing while visiting Turkey, but it led to her getting a warning from the authorities, who told her that the particular sign is banned in the country. The video, however, has sparked mixed reactions on social media, with some Turkish people claiming they have never heard about the ban on the sign. A Korean content creator who got a warning for showing a peace sign. (Instagram/@tyongeee) South Korean content creator Tyongee posted the video on Instagram. She wrote, 'I did not know at all! It's amazing how I get to learn a new culture and manner whenever I travel.' In the video, she poses for a selfie while showing the peace sign. However, two men instantly call her out and tell her that the sign is banned in Turkey and that she shouldn't flash it. When asked why, one of the men says, 'In your culture, it means peace, but unfortunately in Turkey, it is raised about terrorism,' leaving the Korean woman visibly shocked. Curious, Tyongee asks the men if a mini heart sign is allowed, and they say that she can flash that popular sign. Social media had a lot to say: While many expressed surprise, some claiming to be Turkish said they were unaware of the sign ban. An individual posted, 'I like that they actually explained to her very calmly.' Another asked, 'But why is it related to terrorism?' An individual replied, 'This symbol is frequently used by the terrorist organisation called the PKK, which has caused the deaths of many civilians in Turkey. Because of this, it may provoke negative reactions from civilians in Turkey.' A third remarked, 'As a Turkish, I have never heard that a sign is banned. They just made it up... It must be their personal thoughts. We use it and it's super common.' A fourth wrote, 'They were respectful, and the girl was respectful. That's how people should talk every time.'
