Unpopular opinion: Raju Srivastava should have won the 1st season of The Great Indian Laughter Challenge.
He wasn't just a comedian..he was a phenomenon. His expressions, timing and humour made him a household name long before stand up comedy became mainstream in India❤️
Enjoy🔥

One video that I am never tired of watching and could possibly be my most watched video. Greatest knock of King Kohli under unimaginable pressure.
Thanks to this person for posting the last three overs. And without Bhogle’s commentary.
The second last over’s first three balls by Rauf really cornered India. Definitely looked impossible at that point. And then the unforgettable 28 on 8 balls milestone comes. And Kohli unleashes his terror !
Although we won, but Ashwin’s decision to read the last ball and leaving it for a wide was ..heart in mouth ! I cannot think of a bigger risk. You need just two runs, last ball..and you leave it. Anyone would be expected to thrash it. What confidence from Ashwin. Had it not gone his way, I can’t imagine what he would have had to face from fans, especially after Kohli’s performance of getting them right on the finish line.
The reaction videos of last two overs of this epic match from Pakistan are a treat to watch. Especially at 28 on 8, it was a done deal from them, before Kohli delivered one of the greatest shots ever.
What a match.

Tambe marrying Lokhande is Alloying.
Lokhande marrying Pitale is brazing
Khote marrying Khare is cheating.
Kale marrying Gore is contrasting.
Hiwale marrying Unhale is Global warming.
But Wagh marrying Waghmare is pure suicide!

Bartolo Colon once threw 38 consecutive strikes during an eight-scoreless-inning outing in 2012.
Thirty-eight straight pitches without a ball mixed in is the kind of command streak that sounds less believable the longer you think about it.
It was the longest such run on record since 1988. Colon was not nibbling around the zone that day.
He kept attacking hitters and somehow never interrupted the sequence.

Go to the 1:31 mark in this video. Madhuri Dixit stands on her left leg and moves her right leg in circles - 16 rounds in total, eight clockwise and eight anticlockwise. The circles are large enough to make her ghaghra twirl along with the leg, yet her upper body remains almost perfectly still and balanced, while both the hands are also twirling with the leg and she continues performing the expressions and lip sync as per the lyrics.
That's a Kathak-trained dancer performing in a very heavy Rajasthani folk outfit executing a movement that is a version of a ballet move called rond de jambe all while maintaining balance, rhythm, control and expression.
Sorry, but while Karishma Kapoor was good, she was not even close to Madhuri Dixit.

What would a nuclear war between India and Pakistan actually look like?
This 28-minute simulation follows one, minute by minute — from a five-kiloton tactical nuclear strike on an Indian tank column in the Cholistan desert, to the phone that rings in New Delhi three minutes later, to the week that follows once nobody is deciding any more.
Everything in it is built from things that exist: India's 2003 nuclear doctrine of no first use and massive retaliation, the four red lines Pakistan's Khalid Kidwai set out in 2002, the Nasr tactical missile, the eight-minute flight from Sargodha to Delhi, the 2019 Rutgers–Colorado nuclear winter study, and the real crisis of May 2025.
Everything except the ending.

A salute to flydubai’s brave Indian pilot, Captain Smit Machchhar. Stabbed and wounded, yet he stood his ground. With the courage of "Arjuna" in the face of danger and the resolve of "Hanuman" when duty called, he fought back, opened the cockpit door, and gave the passengers and crew the chance to prevent disaster. He helped save 174 lives.
Tonight, from the UAE to India to Israel, people are united in gratitude, wishing Captain Machchhar a swift and full recovery.
A hero to his passengers, to aviation, and to people everywhere.
Salute, Captain.
