Sonu Sood responds to Rajpal Yadav’s comment on not needing to ask for work…’I didn’t say he needs work’

Published by Parlour News

Actor Rajpal Yadav in an interaction with SCREEN, opened up about the support he has received from the film industry during his time in jail and responded to Sonu Sood’s recent comment about “offering him work”. He said, “Please get over the misconception that I need to keep asking for work. And there is no shame in asking for work. I live through my job, cinema is my passion, and I work in such a way that I get four times more work. I work even on vacations. Work doesn’t find me, it has lived with me for the last 11 years.” When HTCity contacted Sonu he responded, “Happy for him. I didn’t say he needs work. I said “Sign him and pay advances because he deserves it”. Yadav was recently granted interim bail in a ₹9 crore debt and cheque bounce case. While the actor was lodged in Tihar Jail, several industry figures, including Sonu Sood and Salman Khan, reportedly stepped forward to offer financial support. Director Priyadarshan had also revealed that he asked …

Hockey India League: Needing to win by 7 goals for a miraculous top-four finish, Soorma Hockey Club fall agonisingly short with 6-1 victory vs SG Pipers | Hockey News

Published by Webster

Harmanpreet Singh stood bent double, disappointment writ large on his face. In a season of highs and lows, somehow Soorma Hockey Club gave themselves a chance. A miniscule chance, but chance nonetheless. They needed to win by seven goals to snatch fourth place away from HIL Governing Council. In front of them were SG Pipers who had endured yet another wretched season, so it wasn’t out of the realm of possibilities. In the end though, Soorma could manage “only” a 6–1 victory against Pipers in the final Men’s Hockey India League (HIL) group stage match. Soorma made a high-intensity start, led by Jeremy Hayward’s (2’, 7’, 34’, 45’) thunderous drag flicks and a counter-attacking strike from Lucas Martinez (11’). Nicolas Keenan (47’) later helped Soorma move into touching distance of qualification in the final quarter but the Pipers held on in the dying minutes to break Soorma’s hopes of advancing to the Qualifiers. Soorma began the game on the front foot, forcing the Pipers back early and earning a penalty corner within the opening minutes. …

Ankita Bhakat after Asian Championship gold: ‘Needing 9 on last shot, memories of 7 flashed in front of eyes…but I….’ | Sport-others News

Ankita Bhakat had returned from the Paris Olympics with a bouquet of brickbats. She had wildly misfired a horror shot of 4, then an all-timed 7 in the bronze medal match, after a pair of insufficient 10s against Koreans in semis and ended with a 4th place finish in mixed team alongside Dhiraj Bommadevara. It was India’s best performance in Archery at the Olympics, but a no-medal was as good as nothing, and the Indian archers copped all the usual criticism. But, one thing had been evident to all coaches at the India camp: Ankita, 25, had no fear of Koreans, those serial champions of the sport. She followed a particular mindset, that kept her alert when she faced off against them, but never left her paralysed with nerves. Story continues below this ad At archery’s Asian Championship in Dhaka, the Kolkatan stood at the finals station, ready as ever against Korean Nam Suhyeon. She wasn’t aware that it was the Paris Olympics silver medallist she was up against. “Actually I had forgotten she had …

Parth Salunkhe settled for bronze as pressure of making finals triggers a 7, when needing 10

Parth Salunkhe settled for bronze as pressure of making finals triggers a 7, when needing 10

Published by Webster

Earlier this week, when 21-year-old Parth Salunkhe finished 60th in the men’s individual recurve qualification in Shanghai Archery World Cup Stage 2, the Maharashtra bowman would tell himself ‘Never be afraid to take off’. The same day, Salunkhe would edge out both Tokyo Olympics champion, Turkish Mate Gazoz and Tokyo and Paris Olympics team star Kim Je-deok of South Korea in the quarter-final. He would seal his spot for Sunday’s semi-final against Pars Olympics triple gold medallist and Rio and Tokyo Olympics team gold medallist Kim Woo-jin of South Korea. Trailing 0-4 in the semi-final, Salunkhe made a comeback to tie the match 4-4 before he lost on the last arrow. Moments later, he won his maiden Archery World Cup medal with a 6-4 win over Paris team silver medallist Baptiste Addis of France and the 21-year-old would reiterate the same thoughts. “I barely made it in qualification, ranked 60th out of 64. This being my second World Cup, I had no medal dreams but to give my best whatever situations came. And that’s the …

Vidarbha Ranji champs as Kerala, needing 412 in about 40 overs, wave white flag | Cricket News

Vidarbha Ranji champs as Kerala, needing 412 in about 40 overs, wave white flag | Cricket News

Published by Webster

When the digital clock mounted beside the manual scoreboard flashed 2.15, the sun scorching down, Darshan Nalkande swiped Aditya Sarwate towards midwicket to complete his half-century. The long-awaited declaration arrived, and the moment of frenzy kicked. Vidarbha declared on 375 for 9, and Kerala’s captain conveyed their message that they won’t dare the ludicrous task of chasing down 412 in less than 40 overs. The match was drawn and the hosts won on their first-innings lead. The rest of Vidarbha’s players stormed to ground to pile over Nalkande and Yash Thakur, before grabbing souvenir stumps and dancing in an impromptu huddle near the pitch. Wagging their stumps, they ran a lap around the stadium. The pain of losing the final last year, at the hands of Mumbai, was exorcised as they held the trophy aloft for the third time in seven years. The destiny of the game was a foregone conclusion, reducing the proceedings to the seriousness of an irrelevant postscript. It was akin to the credit-roll at the end of a movie, those watched …

Singham Again Box Office: Ajay Devgn Would Fail To Nail The Biggest Cop Universe Milestone! (Photo Credit – YouTube) Ajay Devgn’s Singham Again has entered the last leg of its lifetime run at the box office, and while the film is stretching itself towards a respectable number every day, the inflated budget is not helping to achieve the goal already. After 25 days, it stands at 267.65 crore. Singham Again Box Office Collection Day 25 On the 25th day, Monday, November 25, the film earned 0.65 crore. This was a huge from the previous day, which happened to be a Sunday, and earned 1.95 crore. Interestingly, it is the highest-grossing Cop Universe film and the highest-grossing film of Rohit Shetty’s career, surpassing his previous best – Simmba’s 240 crore. Meanwhile, Ajay Devgn has yet to beat the highest-grossing film of his career, Tanhaji – The Unsung Warrior!

Logitech’s new wireless keyboard targets pro gamers needing portability

Published by Webster

Logitech has announced the Pro X 60 Lightspeed, the first wireless gaming keyboard from the company to come in a compact 60 percent format. Available through the gaming-focused Logitech G sub-brand, the keyboard is available now for $179 in a choice of two GX optical switch types (tactile or linear) and three colors (black, white, or pink). Positioned as a compact follow-up to Logitech’s G Pro X TKL Lightspeed, the Pro X 60 includes many of the same features. Users get three connectivity options: wired, using the included six-foot USB-C to USB-C charging cable, or wireless via Bluetooth or Logitch’s Lightspeed dongle, with the latter providing a polling rate of 1000Hz. One key difference is that, unlike the Pro X TKL, the Pro X 60 isn’t a mechanical keyboard — it’s optical so the feel is different. Neither keyboard offers hot-swappable switches. Both the GX optical linear and tactile switch options for the Pro X 60 have a 1.8mm actuation point and 4mm travel distance, with an actuation force of 50g and 60g respectively. Additional customizations …

Mayank Agarwal shares update on his health one day after needing to be hospitalised while on flight | Cricket News

Published by Webster

Cricketer Mayank Agarwal has given a medical update about himself, a day after he needed to be rushed to a hospital in Agartala. The Karnataka Ranji Trophy team captain fell sick on board a New Delhi-bound flight on Tuesday. It was learnt that Agarwal had apparently consumed a liquid a pouch in front of him thinking it to be water. That led to him having swelling and ulcers in his mouth. Agarwal, who has played 21 Tests for India, had led Karnataka to a 29-run victory over Tripura on Monday. In his absence, vice-captain Nikin Jose is likely to take over the Karnataka team’s captaincy in the next match. The team is slated to take on Railways in Surat in a Ranji Trophy game starting from February 2. Sharing two photographs of himself lying on a hospital bed, Agarwal posted the caption: “I am feeling better now. Gearing to comeback. Thank you for prayers, love and support, everyone!” While it is not yet ascertained what was in the pouch, Agarwal has lodged a formal complaint …

Cake’s first e-bike can go over 200 miles before needing a charge

Published by Webster

Cake, the Swedish maker of deliciously designed electric motorbikes, finally has an e-bike with actual pedals, not pegs. The Cake Äik comes in two street-legal variants: In the US, it ships with a throttle and mid-drive 500W motor (with a 1000W peak) with a 20mph (32km/h) top speed, while in Europe it’s pedal-assist only and you’re stuck with a 250W motor (500W peak) capable of just 16mph (25km/h) max.  Like the Cake Ösa electric moped I reviewed last summer, Åik is positioned less for commuters, and more as a utility bike for people that rely upon two-wheeled transport for their livelihoods or rugged outdoor fun. Mount a fridge on the back and power it off one of your three 750kWh batteries.Image: Cake The 66lbs (30kg) Åik, which translates to “big and heavy load,” is capable of carrying about 176lbs (80kg) in cargo — 132lbs (60kg) on the back and 44lbs (20kg) up front. The modular aluminium frame can be fitted with dizzying assortment of racks, bags, trailers, baskets, and even a passenger seat. It can …
