Dutch riders dreaming of crazy party corner of Alpe d’Huez

Published by Parlour News

Dutch corner is known for being the biggest and craziest party in cycling. Dutch riders dreaming of crazy party corner of Alpe d’Huez Thousands of orange-clad, booze-fuelled cycling enthusiasts and young revellers flock to corner seven of Alpe d’Huez every time the Tour de France climbs the iconic mountain. And they create a unique, noisy and hectic atmosphere even by Tour de France mountain pass standards. This year, the Tour will head up the 21 Alpe d’Huez hairpins on Friday and some of the Dutch fans rocking to Europop tunes will have already been there for days by the time the peloton passes. More Dutch riders have won a Tour de France stage on Alpe d’Huez than any other nationality, including the host country. For Dutch riders in the Tour, this will be a poignant moment. “It’s a super special mountain, of course, Dutch Mountain and the famous corner seven,” said Dutch rider Thymen Arensman before the Tour began. Arensman has been on Dutch Corner before and not just for training rides. “I have super …

Jackie Shroff recalls a quiet Shah Rukh Khan on King Uncle sets: ‘He sat in a corner’ | Bollywood News

Published by Parlour News

2 min readNew DelhiJun 4, 2026 07:45 PM IST Every actor in the industry seems to have a Shah Rukh Khan story—whether they’ve worked with him or simply crossed paths with him. One such actor is Jackie Shroff, who has witnessed Shah Rukh’s journey from close quarters over the years. The two first worked together in the 1993 film King Uncle, followed by Devdas in 2002 and Happy New Year in 2014. While all three films went on to become major successes, Jackie still vividly remembers the young SRK he met on the sets of King Uncle. Speaking to Yuvaa, Jackie recalled, “Shah Rukh Khan played my younger brother in King Uncle, and I thought he was very silent. He would always sit in a corner. Every time I looked at him, I felt like he was a volcano waiting to erupt. He was extremely quiet. Then we worked together in Devdas, and years later he cast me in Happy New Year. The only brief he gave me was: ‘Look handsome.’” Jackie Shroff also opened …

3 min readNew DelhiUpdated: Apr 24, 2026 02:34 PM IST Celebrities often get mobbed by fans in public areas, causing chaotic situations. At times, certain fans even cross the line by invading the privacy of actors. One such incident took place with actor Alia Bhatt, which left her ‘scared’ and ‘uncomfortable’. During an exclusive interview with SCREEN, bodyguard Zeeshan Qureshi, who handles the security of actor Sidharth Malhotra, recalled travelling with the Alia to a foreign location. He opened up about how she was mobbed by the airport staff and custom officers, who kept their hand on her shoulder to click selfies. Revisiting the moment from the year 2014, Zeeshan shared, “I used to work with Alia as well. When she was shooting for Student Of The Year, I worked with her for 3-4 years around that time. She has another level of trust with her staff. We were once travelling with her to a location abroad, with the entire team. So, I saw that Alia cleared her immigration and stepped out to stand in …

J&K’s Ranji Trophy triumph shows cricket in every nook and corner of India: Rahul Dravid | Cricket News

J&K’s Ranji Trophy triumph shows cricket in every nook and corner of India: Rahul Dravid | Cricket News

4 min readMumbaiMar 16, 2026 12:45 AM IST The story of Indian cricket’s phenomenal success has been about its expanding geography as much as its history-making, going deep into places where domestic cricket has spread its roots. So even as Rahul Dravid congratulated the five ICC title-winning teams – Women’s U19 and seniors in ODIs, and T20, Champions Trophy and U19 winning men’s teams, he reckoned the Cinderella story of the last year was Jammu & Kashmir winning the Ranji Trophy. “It’s a wonderful win for Jammu & Kashmir, though unfortunately it came against Karnataka, so I’m not too happy about that though I know you tried hard Rahul,” Dravid quipped to KL at the BCCI awards. But along with Vaibhav Suryavanshi emerging from Bihar, Dravid would credit BCCI for taking cricket into small cities, to every nook and corner of the country. Why Indian cricket seems to be bullish about itself is not just the five titles won across men and women, but the depth of talent outside these squads, with Varun Chakravarthy eloquently …

How Lakshya Sen targeted Li Shifeng’s forehand back corner to reach the All-England semifinals | Badminton News

How Lakshya Sen targeted Li Shifeng’s forehand back corner to reach the All-England semifinals | Badminton News

Published by Webster

The beauty of badminton as Lakshya Sen has highlighted on two successive days is, you needn’t pin your opponent and corner them to the edges of the court. Sending the shuttle into that far, back corner where the opponent will wish for extendable limbs in chasing that fluttering flighty bird, always gets the job done. After NG Ka Long Angus of Hong Kong, Sen kept sending tracer bullet shuttles to Chinese Li Shifeng’s far forehand back corner, to set the early tone and eventually won the match 21-13, 21-16 in 60 glorious minutes. Sen didn’t corner Shifeng, he just used the corners to show the Chinese up. The Chinese men’s singles game, relies on committing to the front court from where they try dominating the net. So the right knee goes across in a default diagonal stance and a fair amount of shuttles are picked on the backhand. That forehand far back corner is not even in their peripheral vision, and Sen used that blind spot, pinging the shuttles compulsively to Shifeng’s stretched forehand on …

Anatomy of Surya’s Intimidating India: match-winners in every corner | Cricket News

Anatomy of Surya’s Intimidating India: match-winners in every corner | Cricket News

Published by Webster

The empire that Suryakumar Yadav has built is intimidating. On Sunday, they crushed a highly-competent New Zealand brigade with an infallible ruthlessness reminiscent of Australia’s white-ball domination at the turn of the century. On a flat deck, the multi-skilled bowling firm, without the regulars Arshdeep Singh and Varun Chakaravarthy, restricted the visitors to 153. In 45 minutes of an unfettered onslaught, in merely 10 overs, they wrapped up the game and series, kissed an early good night to the Guwahati crowd, and sung a sinister war-cry to those plotting to upset the World Cup defence. Beating this India requires a tremendous deal of skill, fortune and tenacity. Match-winners stare from every corner, even from the bench. Imagine someone as gifted as Shreyas Iyer ferrying drinks; or Shubman Gill condemned to the domestic field, or the luxury to ignore Mohammed Siraj and Yuzvendra Chahal. To defeat India, India has to defeat itself first. Nothing fazes them. A wicket of the first ball, no problem, no panic, no fuss. Ishan Kishan retorted with a pair of sixes …

STATS CORNER: Rinku Singh’s T20I strike rate is 287.83 in 19th & 20th overs, and that is why he is India’s must-have finisher | Cricket News

A tinge of foreboding was beginning to wrap around New Zealand when Rinku Singh walked out of the crease and belted Daryl Mitchell’s first ball in the 20th over for a six down the ground. The following ball went sailing over mid-wicket, and Rinku’s world had suddenly teleported back to April 2023. Curiously, since that epic IPL heist for Kolkata Knight Riders against Gujarat Titans in Ahmedabad, where he clubbed five consecutive sixes to clinch a 20th over thriller, Rinku’s T20 career has yet to realise a riff, an encore that would truly stamp his hallmark as a finisher. He relished his best-ever IPL season that year with 474 runs at 149.52. He would oddly face only 247 balls for KKR in the next two seasons, an average of eight balls per outing. That could partly be blamed for Rinku’s selection merely as a reserve for the 2024 T20 World Cup and his conspicuous absence in India’s most recent T20I assignments after the Asia Cup in September till December 2025. Rinku did not biff five …
