Unni Mukundan asks fans to make 6-pack abs like Marco rather than smoke to ‘feel man enough'

Actor Unni Mukundan put out a note on Instagram, asking fans not to follow anything unhealthy that his character Marco does, particularly smoking. He posted a still of himself from the film, urging them to make a six-pack like him instead if they needed to 'feel man enough'. Here's what he said. (Also Read: Suriya warns fans against picking up a smoking habit because he did it in Retro: 'You would think one puff is enough') Unni wrote about how the weight of a cigarette usually weighs around 1 gram and that shouldn't be enough to make people 'feel man enough'. He wrote, 'The weight of a single cigarette typically ranges between 0.7 to 1.0 grams, depending on the brand and type. So, the total weight (including the filter and paper) is generally about 1 gram on average. If that's how you feel Man enough, please reconsider your options.' He pointed out that men tend to lift 50 kg of iron in the gym to get fit and choose that option instead, if they wanted to ape Marco, writing, 'FYI: Men lift 50 kgs of iron to actually go high. Guys, Choice is yours. P.S: Easier to mimic the Marco with Cigs on hand. Try being the Marco with Six Pack on hand. To be the latter, you will need something called, The Grit.' The still he posted from the film shows him flaunting his six pack while covered in blood. A post shared by Unni Mukundan (@iamunnimukundan) Fans seemed impressed with Unni's health advisory, with many agreeing with him and leaving heart or fire emojis. One fan commented, 'Rightly said!!! That's my U! God bless you always.' Another wrote, 'Ya definitely, to actually become like Marco with Six Packs on hand , lifting 50kgs iron, definitely needs, the "GRIT"...proper commitments, strong determination, amidst difficult situations ...definitely a sign of " bravery"..so just keep it Unni Sir.' For the unversed, Unni played a gangster called Marco in the 2024 film directed by Haneef Adeni. The film is a standalone spin-off of the 2019 film Mikhael, starring Nivin Pauly. While Marco features some characters from Mikhael, they're placed in a different universe and a different story. The film, touted to be one of the 'most violent films' made in India shows the titular character go on a rampage after the death of his foster brother.

Produce merchants say lease at West Side Market was unfairly not renewed

CLEVELAND (WJW) — Aiman Ebrahim has been selling fruits and vegetables at the West Side Market in Cleveland for 40 years. For the last 20, his wife Maha Mikhael has been by his side. They said it's a business that has allowed them to earn a living and put their kids through school. At the end of April, they'll have to clear out of their produce booth after their lease was not renewed. Tornado confirmed in Northeast Ohio storms They said they're being targeted for being outspoken about certain issues at the market since the Cleveland Public Market Corporation took over leadership of the West Side Market from the city of Cleveland. As that transition was happening, the merchants were switched from their year-long leases to month-to-month leases. 'Month-to-month lease — legally, they can put anybody out. It happened to be me because I always stand up for the right stuff,' Ebrahim said. He and Mikhael don't want to leave the West Side Market and aren't sure how they'll survive moving forward. 'I feel like I'm going to have a heart attack soon. I [haven't slept] for one week. I have very bad anxiety, depression,' Mikhael said. 'Like hey, your career here is finished and go find a new way,' Ebrahim added. 'So, it's not easy.' They said part of the reason they were given for the lease not being renewed was because of poor customer reviews through a program market leadership used called Snapshot. However, Ebrahim suggested that they were targeted through that program for being outspoken. He added that they were docked for being closed for more than a month while Mikhael received treatment for a breast cancer diagnosis. They added that any normal business will have some bad reviews, but they've successfully been there for decades without any problems. Legionella bacteria found at Cuyahoga County Justice Center: I-Team West Side Market's Executive Director Rosemary Mudry spoke to FOX 8 News about the lease for King Quality Produce not being renewed. Mudry noted that it's not their policy to share any private information related to any of their merchants, and also acknowledged that change is difficult for anyone. She said that they review every lease when it's up just like any normal landlord would. 'First and foremost, our role is to ensure that the market is as strong as it can possibly be and ensure that we are a home to merchants who are providing high quality customer service with great feedback,' Mudry explained. She said all merchants have received feedback from the Snapshot program to get a better understanding of what's been observed in the first year under the Cleveland Public Market Corporation's leadership.

Got a headache? This 'heavenly' heated eye massager is down to $56

Migraines and tension headaches are excruciating, but there's a higher-tech solution than turning off the lights and taking some ibuprofen: the ultra-relaxing, futuristic-looking Renpho Eyeris 1 Eye Massager. It has over 17,000 five-star ratings, and tons of shoppers say they reach for it when they need relief from staring at a screen all day or they're having trouble falling asleep. Get it for just $56 with the on-page coupon. You're saving $14 with this markdown, and while this isn't the lowest price we've ever seen, it's still a welcome bargain for a pricey self-care gadget. It's certainly more affordable than venturing out to get a massage — something you may not want to do if you're in pain anyway! If you or a loved one suffer from frequent headaches, this guy could pay for itself quickly. The Renpho eye massager uses heat and movement to enhance relaxation and ease migraine pain. There are a few ways these elements can help with migraines, said Dr. Medhat Mikhael, pain management specialist and medical director of the Spine Health Center at MemorialCare Orange Coast Medical Center in Fountain Valley, California. "A lot of people feel that some of the main triggers of migraine are stress and lack of sleep," he says. "Massage can be a preventive measure. If you get a massage regularly, your stress may be relieved, you may sleep better and your [migraine triggers] don't happen." When you're in the throes of a migraine, massaging the top of the back of your neck may help ease the pain, Mikhael says. However, others may get relief from massage around the eyes (still others may find it's too much). As for heat, Mikhael says it can help relax the muscles that can feed into migraine pain. And, like massage, it may be helpful to apply it to the top of the back of your neck during a migraine. Otherwise, applying heat around your eyes can help you relax, he says. The mask is essentially like a personal masseuse, tending to your temples as you recline and listen to soothing sounds. That's right: It can even play music through a Bluetooth connection while it works its magic. The headband is adjustable to help you get that just-right fit, and it folds up compactly for storage or travel. An astounding 17,000-plus fans have given this "heavenly" massager a perfect rating, saying it's helped with everything from relaxing before bed to soothing tired eyes. "I put it on before I attempt to sleep and it relaxes my eyes, which helps tremendously," shared one chilled-out customer. "My eye muscles have been so stressed, they make sleeping difficult. This machine has helped me so much. ... I'm grateful to have it. When I wake up in the middle of the night and can't get my eyes to relax, I use this for 15 minutes and go back to sleep. It's a literal lifesaver." "I got it for my mom who gets migraines and she loved it and said it really helped and relaxed her," wrote another verified buyer. "I borrowed it to try and ended up really liking it. She ended up getting me my own so I wouldn't keep borrowing hers. I've been struggling with insomnia and it actually helps with that too!" "This product has become a daily thing for me," said a third relaxed reviewer. "If you have tension headaches or dry eyes, use this for a couple [of] days... I look forward to using this every night! I have discontinued my eye drops because I don't need them anymore and have cut way down on headache meds! It is incredibly durable and portable!" The calming effects of this eye massager are hard to beat, but one shopper pointed out two minor annoyances. "At the end of each session a voice will come on and say, 'Renpho massage complete,' which is really a bummer when you've fallen asleep," they wrote. Another miss: "The massage portion cannot be tailored." "I use it as a part of my bedtime routine," raved a final fan. "My only gripe is I wish the motor was a little quieter, but play some rain sounds or whatever and it's easy to forget about it." Psst — maybe your tired feet could use a little TLC too? If you have Amazon Prime, you'll get free shipping, of course. Not yet a member? No problem. You can sign up for your free 30-day trial here. (And by the way, those without Prime still get free shipping on orders of $35 or more.) The reviews quoted above reflect the most recent versions at the time of publication.

The Renpho eye massager uses both heat and movement to enhance relaxation and help ease eye strain and headache pain. Medhat Mikhael, M.D., pain management specialist and medical director at the Spine Health Center at MemorialCare Orange Coast Medical Center in Fountain Valley, California, says massage is a great way to ease stress and improve sleep. "Massage can be a preventive measure. If you get a massage regularly, your stress may be relieved, you may sleep better and your triggers [might not] happen." As for heat, Mikhael explains that, combined with massage, it can help relax muscles. The mask is essentially like a personal masseuse tending to your temples as you recline and listen to soothing sounds.

Pros 👍 "I put it on before I attempt to sleep and it relaxes my eyes, which helps tremendously," shared one happy buyer. "My eye muscles have been so stressed, they make sleeping difficult. This machine has helped me so much. ... I'm grateful to have it. When I wake up in the middle of the night and can't get my eyes to relax, I use this for 15 minutes and go back to sleep. It's a literal lifesaver." "Can't live without it," wrote another verified customer. "This eye massager cured my insomnia as well as my vestibular migraines. It takes my migraine away at the start. I love the heating and vibration on my eyes." "You guys, I never take the time to [write] reviews, but this thing: It is next-level," said a third reviewer. "My headache is gone. Not only does it give you gentle heat and eye rubs, it also massages your temples, which is a total soft spot for me. I'm in awe. I feel so relaxed. The pressure is so perfect. How they made this thing feel like hands rubbing my head is just such a mystery. I'm so excited I found this. Absolutely get it if you have eye pain and strain, and for headache [and] anxiety relief." Cons 👎 The calming effects of this eye massager can't be beat, but one shopper pointed out two minor (like, really minor) annoyances. "At the end of each session a voice will come on and say, 'Renpho massage complete,' which is a bummer when you've fallen asleep," they wrote. Another miss: "The massage portion cannot be tailored." "Sweet relief!" raved a final fan. "I received this product on a day when I was having a massive migraine. Not only did it provide relief, but it relaxed me to the point I could fall asleep. If I'd complain about anything, it would be a lack of control on the pressure intensity. In spite of that, still a five-star product." Psst — here's another highly giftable relaxation device: If you have Amazon Prime, you'll get free shipping, of course. Not yet a member? No problem. You can sign up for your free 30-day trial here.
