6+ min ago (249+ words) Another World Cup. Another statement. And another reminder that India still sets the global standard in kabaddi. The Indian women's kabaddi team stamped their authority once again, defeating Chinese Taipei 3528 in Dhaka to claim their second straight Women's Kabaddi World Cup title. But it was the celebration that stole the show. Just like Rohit Sharma's iconic Ric Flairstyle walk during India's 2024 T20 World Cup triumph in the Caribbean, Ritu Negi delivered her own spine-tingling version. Trophy clasped tight, she slow-walked toward her teammates, soaking in the moment as the crowd roared. Then, in one smooth lift, she hoisted the trophy skyward " and the entire squad erupted around her. If Rohit's walk became a cricketing meme-turned-moment, Ritu's is set to join kabaddi folklore. How The Final Unfolded The team looked sharp from the start of the tournament, sweeping all their group-stage matches…...

The volcano is situated in Ethiopia's Erta Ale Range. Mount Lewotobi Laki-Laki in Indonesia experienced multiple powerful eruptions in 2025, but unlike Ethiopia's Hayli Gubbi volcano, it was not a long-dormant volcano.

11+ min ago (278+ words) The gown, cut in Nachiket Barve's signature architectural style, was imagined in deep noir, a canvas that allowed its crystal-studded surface to gleam like constellations pulled down to earth. Designed with a halter neckline that wrapped sleekly around the collarbone, the gown opened into a sharp keyhole detail, adding controlled sensuality to an otherwise clean silhouette. Its most striking feature came in the form of a daring thigh-high slit, offering movement, light, and a sense of cinematic drama every time she shifted posture. The interplay of structure and fluidity ensured that the gown was not merely worn. It was performed. The embellishments, placed meticulously across the fabric, reflected light with a subtle shimmer rather than a blinding glare. Their intentional patterning added depth and dimension, making the gown feel alive with texture. This was sparkle done the luxury way. It…...

Chill!" Yes, Rickrolling is one of those pranks that have stood the test of times and emerged as an all-time classic bait prank that people can't help but fall for. An Instagram user who goes by the username Shreya Kudumala recently shared about how her adjacent apartment building, taller than her own, blocked her view. Annoyed by this, Shreya decided to do something about it. Sure, she can't see the view from her terrace but hey, the neighbouring residents can surely look at her terrace, right?
