Highlights Of The F9 Trailer

HT News

F9 is in trouble again but not because its cars, speed, characters, or story but because of the raging pandemic that is continuously pushing its release date further and further. This time it is pushed ahead to debut in June.

The recent trailer features a space car….

While it is uncertain whether the F9 fury is exploring the unknown territory but the trailer ignites hopes that the speeding characters could take their race to space.

Highlights of the trailer:

• Cipher (Charlize Theron) will return as a thorn in the franchise. She has wreaked havoc in The Face of The Furious and this time.

• Dom’s brother, Jakob Toretto (John Cena) joins Ciper. Jakob is the long-lost sibling but he has a vendetta against Dom. The trailer shows Jakob being used as a weapon by Cipher.

• Han Lue (Sung Kang) who was presumed dead in the previous installment emerges from the dead to rejoin the old group.

• Wild and mind-bending stunts with space cars will increase the adrenaline rush in the body and mind.

Space car stunt….

Roman and Tej Parker (Ludacris) are seen seated in a space car atop a moving plane. They are donning handmade astronaut suits. They set their helmets right and push the blast button of the car. The space car ejects from the plane and the duo scream in fear until the jet propellors of the car start. It could be a race into space but it will be too early to suggest any guess about the movie.

ASI Will Survey Gyanvapi Mosque On A Court Order

HT News

Archeological Survey of India will survey the Gyanvapi Mosque in Varanasi to ascertain whether there ever existed a Hindu temple before the mosque was constructed on a court order.

What was that court order?

A district court in Varanasi ordered ASI to constitute a five-member committee of experts including two from the minority community to check the facts about Gyanvapi Mosque. The court wants to know whether the mosque is a superimposition, alteration, or addition to a Hindu temple. Or there is a structural overlapping of any kind, with or over, any religious structure. The ASI Chief is also asked to appoint a scholar as an observer to observe the working of the committee.

Why the court passed this order?

The court passed the order on a three-decade old petition filed in 1991 by a group of Varanasi residents that claim that the Gyanvapi Mosque was created over an ancient Hindu temple by the Mughal emperor Aurangzeb in 1664.

What did UP Sunni Central Waqf Board say about the order?

Sunni Central Waqf Board chairman Zufar Ahmad Farooqui said that the petition was barred by the Places of Worship (Special Provisions) Act, 1991. He asserted that the status of Gyanvapi Mosque was beyond question in the light of the said law. He further added that a survey could only provide foundational facts and that no proof about the existence of a Hindu temple was produced in the court. The UP Sunni Central Waqf Board said they would challenge the order in Allahabad High Court.

IPL 2021 Begins Today With Defending Champion MI Taking On Top Contender RCB

HT News

The 14th season of the Indian Premier League (IPL 2021) begins today at 07:30 pm at MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. In the first match, Mumbai Indians (MI) led by Rohit Sharma will take on Virat Kohli’s Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB). It is an interesting match because both are powerful teams. While MI has won the IPL title 5 times and RCB has yet to claim its first title, RCB is also a top contender for the title.

MI vs RCB so far

Both the teams have played a total of 29 matches out of which MI has won 19 matches and RCB had to contend with only 10 wins. They played 27 matches in IPL and 2 matches in the Champions League that has been closed. In IPL, MI defeated RCB in 17 matches and won both the Champions League matches. The first match will be played without spectators to keep audiences and players safe from the pandemic.

IPL 2021 venues

This year, BCCI has selected only six venues for IPL matches and the surprising thing is that no IPL team will get the opportunity to play on its home ground this season. The first of IPL 2021 is at MA Chidambaram Stadium but both the teams are playing their third match at this stadium and both have won one match each. This season, Rohit Sharma is eying for the sixth IPL title and Virat Kohli also seems determined to claim their first title.

Vakeel Saab: Pawan Kalyan Replaces Amitabh Bachchan In Telugu Remake Of Pink

HT News

Pawan Kalyan starrer “Vakeel Saab” is the Telugu remake of Amitabh Bachchan starrer Bollywood movie “Pink”. But the director Sriram Venu has made enough changes in the script according to Pawan Kalyan who has a massive outreach. Also, he has chosen Shruti Hassan for an important role.

Story

Three women – Vemula Pallavi (Nivetha Thomas), Zareena (Anjali) and Divya (Ananya Nagalla) – meet Vamshi (Vamsi) and his friends at a resort. There they sexually assault the girls. Pallavi hits Vamshi with a bottle on his head to escape from his clutches and the three girls run away. Injured Vamshi who belongs to a political family gets Pallavi arrested by filing a backdate case against her. The girls approach Vakeel Saab Konidela Satya Dev (Pawan Kalyan) for help.

Highlights of the movie:

• Pawan Kalyan returning after a brief interval of three years

• Prakash Raj delivers a compelling performance

• The second half of the movie is all about court drama

• Powerful subject line and dialogues

Weakness of the movie:

• Poorly scripted flashback story in the first half

• Less appealing than the original movie

Verdict

“Vakil Saab” has many things in common with Pink but the Telugu remake is more centric to Pawan Kalyan. The movie starts with a very positive note but looks tilting towards Pawan Kalyan. It seems that the director wanted to give the star an advantage. But the director has tried to retain as much originality as possible. Overall, the movie is good to watch with family and friends.

What did PM Modi say about difficult questions?

Modi said that was habitual of dealing with difficult questions first since he was Chief Minister of Gujarat. Every morning, the officials would update Modi about the most difficult situations, the PM said. Once the difficult situations were handled, he sits down to relax and solve the easier problems, maintained PM Modi.

He advised students not to avoid difficult subjects as things that look difficult become easier over time. He gave a few examples to substantiate his claim. He said that cycling and swimming looked difficult at the beginning but becomes easier after some time. He asked them to note down the difficult questions and said that they would never find those questions tough after that.

What did PM Modi say about Lata Mangeshkar?
