‘Salman Khan would take off his shirt if he forgot dance steps’: Vindu Dara Singh

4 min readNew DelhiJun 25, 2026 09:46 AM IST Salman Khan has his own unique style of dancing, with his signature swag. While many of the actor’s hooksteps went on to become iconic, he isn’t known as a dancer. In a recent interview, Vindu Dara Singh, who has worked with Salman in Maine Pyaar Kyun Kiya, Partner, Mujhse Shaadi Karogi, and many other films, recalled the superstar’s approach towards practicing dance steps before performing on film sets. ‘Salman Khan doesn’t practice his dance steps’ During a chat with Kadak’s YouTube channel, Vindu was asked if Salman practices his dance before the film’s shoot. “When we think about who is the best dancer in the film industry, Salman’s name never comes up. This happens because he doesn’t practice dance at all. If Salman Khan decides that he will practice a song for 10-15 days and perform it, then there will be no other dancer like him. People will be surprised to see him. That is Salman Khan for you,” he shared. ALSO READ | Vijay’s dad quit …

The IPL innings nobody remembers and the player who never forgot it

The IPL innings nobody remembers and the player who never forgot it

4 min readUpdated: May 28, 2026 06:28 PM IST The evening before the IPL 2017 Eliminator against Sunrisers Hyderabad in Bengaluru, KKR’s performance analyst Anirudh Srikkanth walked up to Ishank Jaggi with news. Manish Pandey had a side strain. Jaggi might have to play. “The first thing that came out of my mouth was, ‘How?’” Jaggi says. He had not batted in 15 days. When the XI is set during a tournament, the reserves step back and give way. Jaggi had been doing exactly that – not in great touch, not in great rhythm. He asked for batting time. Simon Katich, the head coach, told him to go quickly. He got five to seven minutes before SRH arrived for their practice and the pitch had to be cleared. “That evening, probably I was damn nervous. Not because of the IPL Eliminator. But because of the thought that I was not prepared enough.” The next evening only became stranger. SRH battled to 128 before the rain arrived. Then came the waiting. Inside the Chinnaswamy dressing room, …

‘Bollywood forgot me’: Rahul Dev says he got no work as he returned 4.5 years after wife’s death | Bollywood News

After the death of his wife Rina Dev in 2009, Rahul Dev stepped away from films and the spotlight to raise their son Siddharth as a single parent. The actor-model has now opened up about the emotional and professional struggles he faced during that phase, recalling how difficult it was to restart his career after spending over four years away from the industry. Rahul admitted that when he eventually returned to Mumbai for work, he felt as though the industry had forgotten him despite having done over 80 films. In a conversation with Hindi Rush, Rahul admitted that he was completely unprepared for the challenges of single parenting. He credited his spiritual guru for helping him navigate one of the most difficult phases of his life and eventually encouraging him to return to work. “If guruji hadn’t come into my life in 2013, things would have been very difficult for me. I had no understanding of parenting. My wife died suddenly and I became a single parent to an 11-12-year-old boy. That phase was extremely …

The goalkeeper India forgot, but Football never will

The goalkeeper India forgot, but Football never will

There was a time when Indian football did not chase relevance, it owned it. Stadiums swelled with noise, names of players travelled like folklore, and victories were not just celebrated, they were felt. In that golden age of the 1950s and 60s, when India stood tall on the Asian stage, heroes emerged from every corner of the pitch. Some were easy to remember, artists with the ball at their feet, forwards who turned matches into theatre. And then there was Peter Thangaraj. A goalkeeper. A name that should echo just as loudly, but somehow doesn’t. A presence between the posts Tall, imposing, and unmistakably confident, Thangaraj did not simply guard the goal, he commanded it. At a time when goalkeepers were expected to stay rooted to their line, he stepped forward, both literally and metaphorically, redefining what the role could be. Crosses into the box were not threats; they were invitations. He would rise above the chaos, pluck the ball cleanly from the air, and reset the rhythm of the game in an instant. What …

Anil Kapoor admits he was absent from kids’ lives, even forgot their birthdays: ‘Sunita was like a single parent’

Actor Anil Kapoor has shared a gutsy moment of self-reflection in a new interview, indicting himself over his parenting skills. The veteran actor, father of three, said he was not there for them as much as she should have been, and praised wife, Sunita Kapoor, for almost functioning like a single parent when their kids were young.

Anil Kapoor on parenting In a podcast interview with Lilly Singh, Anil spoke about the role he played in the upbringing of this three children – actors Sonam Kapoor and Harshvardhan Kapoor, and filmmaker Rhea Kapoor. “I was hardly there. If my children say positive things about me, I feel happy that I have raised them well. But as a father, I could have been much better. I should have spent more time. In many ways, Sunita has been like a single parent. I was present, but not the way a father should be,” the actor admitted. Anil said that he was not clued in to …

PSG vs Bayern Munich: Nine goals on a night football forgot to be complicated | Football News

PSG vs Bayern Munich: Nine goals on a night football forgot to be complicated | Football News

4 min readKolkataApr 29, 2026 12:17 PM IST Nine goals in 90 minutes. The scoreline tells you something. It doesn’t tell you everything. What made Tuesday night at the Parc des Princes worth remembering wasn’t the volume of goals but the manner of them — teams playing through each other rather than around each other, forward lines treating the space behind the defensive line as their natural habitat. When they were drawn together in the semis, the goals they had scored to get there suggested something like this. It still had to be lived through to be believed. The first half Kane’s penalty in the 17th minute was the opening statement — composed, inevitable, the kind of finish that carries no visible effort. Kvaratskhelia answered seven minutes later, bursting down the left and curling one past Neuer with the conviction of a man who had seen the gap before the ball arrived. Joao Neves put PSG ahead with a header in the 33rd — arriving at the back post at exactly the right moment, the …

Piyush Mishra opens up about his battle with alcoholism: ‘Made obscene calls to women, forgot them by morning’

Actor-writer Piyush Mishra has spoken candidly about his long struggle with alcoholism, describing it as a deeply consuming phase that affected both his personal and professional life. In a recent conversation, he reflected on how addiction gradually takes hold, often without the individual fully recognising its severity. Piyush Mishra candidly discusses his battle with alcoholism, sharing its impact on his personal and professional life in a new podcast. (Instagram) Piyush Mishra opens up about his battle with alcoholism “At one point, you start feeling that drinking alcohol is necessary. Its effect is such that a person wants to drink more. Alcoholism is a deadly disease… there comes a time when, whether you want to or not, you need alcohol, your body craves it. I have felt this myself,” he said, describing the intense physical and psychological dependency that defined that period in a podcast with Shubhankar Mishra. Despite battling addiction, Piyush maintained that he never let alcohol interfere directly with his work. He stayed away from drinking on set, even though he acknowledges that his …

Kimi Antonelli: The F1 race winner who forgot to indicate on his driving test | Motor-sport News

Kimi Antonelli: The F1 race winner who forgot to indicate on his driving test | Motor-sport News

4 min readMar 19, 2026 12:42 PM IST Kimi Antonelli could dissect a racing circuit before he could drive himself to school. The 19-year-old Mercedes driver sat his driving test in late January 2025, barely a fortnight before lining up on the grid in Melbourne for his F1 debut. While his rivals were managing tyre strategies, he was still managing coursework — studying online for his Italian school-leaving exams through the first half of his rookie season. The driving test, by all accounts, was another humbling reminder that some things cannot be learned on a simulator. His examiner, engineer Sara Giusti, remembered a teenager more comfortable with paddle shifts than a clutch pedal. Practising in a family member’s car and his father’s van had only done so much. “Kimi is a shy, polite, calm boy,” she told La Gazzetta dello Sport. “He didn’t hesitate at all when starting — but he was a bit clunky with the gears and pedals.” And then there was the indicator. The boy who has spent his entire life studying …

Abhishek Sharma’s father had one message before the World Cup final. His son listened, then forgot everything.

Abhishek Sharma’s father had one message before the World Cup final. His son listened, then forgot everything.

3 min readChandigarhMar 9, 2026 11:33 PM IST The congratulatory messages were still coming in – former teammates, friends across India. Raj Kumar Sharma was answering each one. But his thoughts kept returning to the evening before the final. His son had scored three consecutive ducks. Then a scratchy ten. Then a fifty against Zimbabwe that steadied things but didn’t fully settle him. The spinners had found him – off stump, leg stump, down the leg, twice. In the semifinal, Will Jacks had him. The tournament was running out of time. Sharma Sr watched the practice session at Narendra Modi Stadium the day before the final and had a quiet conversation with Abhishek. “I did not have any major conversations with him after the earlier matches,” he said. “But I told him — Down te up time tan harek player da aunda hai. Ghabrana nahi te jaldi hi eh time vi nikal jauga. Each player sees ups and downs. You don’t have to tremble. This time will also pass.” He reminded his son of one …
