Influencer Tayo Ricci poses with Kiara Advani, asks who she is; offended desi netizens ask ‘Who the hell are you?'
The Internet is no stranger to surprising celebrity collaborations, but a recent one has gone viral for being completely unplanned, and hilariously one-sided. A now-popular video shows influencer Tayo Ricci and Bollywood star Kiara Advani appearing at the same event for beauty brand Tira. But here's the twist: Ricci had no idea who she was. In the clip, which Ricci posted to Instagram a month ago, he's seen sporting an Indian cricket team ODI jersey and casually posing next to Advani during a photo session. The caption? 'Anyone know who this girl is?' That one line was enough to spark an internet frenzy. A post shared by Tayo Ricci (@tayoricci) The video has since racked up over 13 million views, and while some found it funny, many Indian fans were quick to clap back. One user shot back, 'We all know her, but who are you da?' Another wrote, 'I'm watching you for the first time in my life just because of her.' One user commented, 'She was Dhoni's wife in the movie! Thala for a reason.' Another comment pointed out, 'Someone who has 5 times more followers than you lol.' In the comment section, Ricci tried to play along, writing, 'She follows me on Spotify.' Ricci, 27, is an Australian-American content creator and musician, originally from Melbourne but now based in Los Angeles. Ricci has built a massive following across TikTok, YouTube, and Instagram, and is known for his shirtless interviews, pranks, and bold fashion choices, including his love for the Indian cricket jersey. On TikTok alone, he boasts more than 9.8 million followers, and he has also released a number of songs and EPs under his name. Kiara Advani was recently seen in the War 2 teaser. The Ayan Mukherji directorial is the new installment in the YRF Spy Universe. The movie stars Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR is the lead roles. Advani is set to make her entry into the YRF Spy Universe in this film, marking several 'firsts' for her, including her first action film, first YRF film and her first on-screen bikini shot.

State wildlife officials to shut Northern California fish hatchery, citing costs
California wildlife officials will shut down a state-run fish hatchery in Humboldt County, ending more than 50 years of operations due to rising costs, aging infrastructure and federal limits on steelhead production. The Mad River Fish Hatchery, which raises a modest number of steelhead and rainbow trout and serves as an access point to the picturesque Mad River for recreation and fishing, will close in June after decades of financial challenges, said Peter Tira, a spokesperson for the California Department of Fish and Wildlife. 'It's a bit of a sad day for us here,' Tira said Friday from the hatchery near Arcata, about 200 miles northwest of Sacramento. In addition to financial woes that led the hatchery to be briefly closed during a state budget crunch in 2004, the facility needed $40 million in repairs to fix old wells, broken concrete and other infrastructure, he said. The hatchery, the smallest of the state's 21 hatchery facilities, opened in 1971 and initially raised Chinook and inland salmon in addition to steelhead and rainbow trout, the agency said in a news release about the planned closing. Because the Northern California steelhead found in the Mad River are federally protected as a threatened species, the hatchery is limited to raising only 150,000 fry per year under regulations meant to preserve the wild DNA of fish that breed naturally in the waterway, the agency said. By comparison, it raises and releases 450,000 steelhead and 4.6 million salmon every year at its Trinity River Hatchery near Lewiston, some 60 miles inland. The hatchery stopped breeding salmon years ago because the fish were not returning to the Mad River to spawn, Tira said. The reason turned out to be inherent in the structure of the hatchery: it was built to operate with well water rather than river water. This led the baby fish to imprint on the well water; when the time came to come back from the ocean to spawn, they did not know where to go. In addition to $10 million in immediate repairs and $30 million in longer-term infrastructure fixes, the department estimated that it would need an additional $1 million a year to continue to operate the hatchery. The facility also required upgrades to meet federal requirements, including the development of a genetic management plan for the steelhead, Tira said. While most of the state's other hatcheries are owned by the federal government or other entities, the Mad River facility is owned by the state, so California is on the hook for any needed repairs, Tira said. 'Quite simply, the steelhead program is no longer viable,' said Jason Roberts, inland fisheries program manager for the department's northern region. 'The Mad River Fish Hatchery is no longer providing much, if any, conservation benefit to the species nor the intended recreation or sport fishing benefits in the Mad River.' The hatchery will release its remaining steelhead into the river later this spring, and cease operations in June, Roberts said in the statement. The hatchery property will remain open for tourists and local residents for whom it is a popular place for picnics, birding and river access, CDFW officials said. Its parking lot is often used by people spending a day hiking or fishing in the area. 'A few people have pointed out the irony of a government agency complaining about government regulation,' Tira said Friday. 'It's the reality here.'
