Vijay plays an undercover cop with a personal vendetta, and his gritty, brooding performance is already being hailed as one of his best in recent years. With stylised action, an emotionally driven plot and a pulsating background score, Kingdom is shaping up to be the kind of theatre experience fans have been waiting for. But what's got everyone talking — beyond the film's scale and performances — is a surprise cameo by superstar Nani. Yes, that's right. Without any official announcement or teaser hints, Nani makes a guest appearance in Kingdom, and fans are losing it. While the exact nature of his role has been kept under wraps to avoid spoilers, social media is already flooded with excitement. For Nani fans, this unexpected moment has become one of the film's biggest highlights. In the comments section across social platforms, one line keeps echoing: 'This is what mass cinema should look like," read one comment. 'blockbuster bomma," read another.

Harnessing Yoga to Manage Workplace Stress and Boost Performance
Up until a few years ago, Neha was a 28-year-old corporate employee with hair already gray, eyes filled with dark circles, and the physical age of a 58-year-old! She dreaded Monday mornings, her work became a source of anxiety, sleep was irregular, and her mood was always tense. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now But then a switch inside her flipped, and things have never been better! The switch When Neha went home for the long weekend, she was coaxed by her grandparents into waking up early one day. Not to 'log in early', but to log into her inner being with a small Yoga session. She was cranky and tired, but who can say to Nani dearest? And what was the show? A pre-recorded episode from back in 2005, where Baba Ramdev was addressing thousands of people and helping them do Yoga by following him. And 10 minutes into the morning telecast of the Yoga show, Neha felt a wave of ease over her. What started as a forceful activity turned into a daily habit. Over the next few weeks, she noticed small but important changes: feeling more energetic, better focus, and so much more positivity. Yoga, as it turned out, gave her something she hadn't felt in a long time, which was control over her mind and body. The growing workplace anxiety Neha, being a journalist, had a desk job. But even the constant influx of copies took a toll on her health. Dealing with crime news, writing about lay-offs, and whatnot had made her resent the work she did. And so naturally, she stayed distracted. And today, there are so many people who feel anxious without even realizing it. The signs show up quietly: fatigue, forgetfulness, body aches, or trouble sleeping. Left unchecked, this stress can lead to burnout, which affects both health and work performance. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now And while therapy, medication, and lifestyle changes are all helpful, yoga offers something unique. How Yoga and Pranayama help Pranayam Yoga offers a wide range of scientifically supported health benefits that improve both physical and mental well-being. Regular yoga practice enhances flexibility, strength, and balance, which are essential for maintaining mobility and reducing injury risk, especially as people age. It also promotes cardiovascular health by lowering blood pressure and improving lipid profiles, thereby reducing the risk of heart disease. Yoga's combination of physical postures, breath control, and meditation helps reduce stress hormones like cortisol, alleviating anxiety and depression while improving mood and mental clarity. Additionally, yoga supports respiratory function and has been shown to improve symptoms in conditions such as asthma. By activating the body's relaxation response, yoga lowers heart rate and blood pressure, contributing to overall cardiovascular efficiency. These holistic benefits make yoga a powerful tool for enhancing quality of life, managing chronic pain, and fostering long-term health. Yoga naturally slows down the racing thoughts that come with anxiety. Certain poses, like the child's pose or the forward bend, bring a sense of calm and grounding, and when combined with deep breathing, they help release tension from the nervous system., In fact, years ago, Baba Ramdev had once said that 'Yoga is the light that once lit never burns out. The more you practice, the brighter it will light up the world inside and around you.' Another way Yoga helps is that when most of us breathe shallowly, especially when we're stressed, Yoga abhyas makes us focus on slow, deep breathing. It relaxes the body and helps with oxygen flow. And when work anxiety starts showing up on your body, it is the loudest alarm that can be rung to warn you of the negative effects ahead. And so even for things like tension in the shoulders, a stiff back, tightness in the neck, and the likes, there is a Yoga pose that will help. BKS Iyengar famously said once, " Yoga does not just change the way we see things, it transforms the person who sees.' It has been about 10 months since Neha started watching and following along with Yoga tutorials. Be it Baba Ramdev's pre-recorded episodes, or the live YouTube follow-along videos by fitness influencers, she makes sure to spend time doing Yoga, taking her from burnout to optimised work.
