'Game of Thrones' Season 7 Episode 4 Trailer Is All About The Much-Awaited War

Jul 312017

Game of Thrones’ latest season is creating a huge buzz since the time its first episode was aired. And believe us or not, every episode of this show is giving us a new high.

As expected, the latest trailer of GOT season 7 episode 4 ‘The Spoils of War’ has got everyone’s nerves racing. After all, Daenerys Targaryen is in crisis.

“All my allies are gone, I’m losing,” Daenerys tells Jon when they meet, after all, she has lost both Euron and Tyrells who were her biggest strengths in episode 2 and 3, respectively. That’s a huge loss indeed! What will she do now?

Looking at the clip, it looks like she has no option left but to negotiate her terms with Jon as he would never bend the knee and swear his loyalty to the Queen; after all, both aim to rule the Iron Throne.

“Enough with the clever plans”, declares Khaleesi. Giving us a clear idea that her dragons and her people are done playing nice, and it’s time for war. Cersei and Jamie, you have no idea what’s coming your way!

On the other hand, we see Cersei clearly stating what she intends to do. She plans to take back control and take charge yet again. She is seen striking a deal with Iron Bank and says, “My only venture at this moment is re-establishing control over this continent and every person on it.”

And finally we also see Arya returning home, that’s the moment tons of fans have been waiting for. The Starks are going to get reunited and we just can’t keep calm.

You also have glimpses of Brienne of Tarth fighting, Theon Greyjoy returning back to the shore, Sansa thinking something intensely (we wonder if this is the silence before the storm?), Podrick thrown on the ground and finally we see a dragon.

Well, according to most of the viewers, the third episode has been the best so far as Jon and Daenerys have finally met.

With so much said, here’s the trailer that you must definitely watch.

It was easily one of the most exquisite high teas that we have recently attended (the other being a few Sunday’s ago with the nuns and girls of the St Anthony’s Girls’ High School on Bellasis Road, but of that some other day).

Catered masterfully by Harsha Kilachand with scrumptious pastries and delicate sandwiches, and festooned with a veritable forest of roses by Gurleen Manchanda, aesthete and designer Simone Arora’s high tea at her store on Friday was a feast for the senses. Simone is married to Ajay Arora, the man behind a luxury furnishings brand, and they appear committed to making the word a prettier place, separately and together.

Seen partaking of the surrounding beauty were the likes of Simi Garewal (who informed us that she was on her way to Melbourne next week where she’d be compeering the Indian Film Festival), Bindu Kapoor, Anu Dewan, Mona Narang and Zeba Kohli amongst others, joined by the beauteous ladies of Simone’s own clan: mother Zarine Khan, sisters Farah Khan Ali and Sussanne, sis-in-law Malaika, and cousin Laila Furniturewala.

And to remind everyone of the magical hour when they had sat atop an exquisite room in an artfully restored heritage site on one of Mumbai’s most genteel tree-lined avenues, Simone had thoughtfully arranged a give-back present of a tiny exquisite fine bone China tea set festooned with roses!

Ali Zafar Sheds His Chocolate Boy Look & Turns Into A Handsome Hunk We Can't Take Our Eyes Off

Celebrities

Jul 302017

Whenever we talk about the chocolate boys of Bollywood, Ali Zafar is one name that makes it to the list of every movie buff. His boyish charm, innocent and baby face makes us drool every single time he comes in the frame. His crazy fan following is no joke and the fact that he is an amazing singer, makes women go weak in their knees. He doesn’t even need to sing ‘Palat Meri Jaan’ for us, since we already have our eyes glued on him.

All set for #humstyleawards

While we were busy humming and dancing on his tunes, Zafar was busy working out and these pictures are giving us some serious fitness goals. From a cute boy-next-door to a handsome hunk who is raising the temperature with his body, Zafar is looking killer AF and we won’t be surprised if his fan following now multiplies manifold. His fitness regime and gym pictures are making us jealous and motivated at the same time. Here’s how he looks now.

He is one actor who knows how to respect women and doesn’t hold himself back from appreciating the girl power.

Women can give us strength that we can’t. With my trainer Tania when in Lahore. Go girl!

A post shared by Ali Zafar (@ali_zafar) on Jul 23, 2017 at 8:19am PDT

If you haven’t noticed already, in the previous picture he was holding an 8 kg dumbbell in one hand and 10kg weight in the other and the internet isn’t a place where things go unnoticed easily. As expected, people were quick to notice this and started questioning him. Well, we don’t know about other celebs, but Zafar wasn’t someone to leave any room for confusion. So, he actually went ahead and gave an explanation for why he was using two different dumbbells and has won our hearts again.

The mystery to the 8 & 10 dumbbells? 🙂 Fractured my left wrist and elbow a few months back pushing me back to a point where I couldn’t even lift 2 kgs after my basic recovery. It was a long struggle to get to here with the support of my trainers. This technique is to balance the strength and size of the left arm with a slightly heavier weight. Gym buffs would know. So about time everybody hits the gym and live it up 😉

If looks could kill, Ali Zafar will be the prime suspect in each case. And that caption just won our hearts.

'Padmavati' made with good intention, says Shahid Kapoor

Shahid Kapoor

His upcoming period-drama “Padmavati” may have been mired in controversies, but actor Shahid Kapoor said the film did not have anything objectionable and was made with “good” intention.

The Sanjay Leela Bhansali-directed period drama faced the ire of certain groups, who attacked the filmmaker and also damaged the film’s set, alleging distortion of history over the depiction of queen Padmavati.

When asked if certain scenes have been changed post that, Shahid told reporters, “According to me, I have not shot any scene which has been changed. I think there were a lot of presumptions about the film, and people were presuming there were (certain) things in the film. “The clarification has been given that those things are not in the film. I hope when people see the film, they realise that the heart of the film and intent of the film is very good.”

“Padmavati”, which stars Deepika Padukone in the titular role, Shahid as Rawal Ratan Singh and Ranveer Singh as Alauddin Khilji, is scheduled to release this year on November 17.

“This country and the people who live in it, and specially the area we are talking about in the film, will be glorified and shown beautifully. I play a Rajput king and my character, I feel, will be admired by people,” Shahid said on the sidelines of Big Zee Entertainment Awards, last evening.

“Padmavati” marks the first collaboration between the “Haider” star and Bhansali, and Shahid said he was thrilled to work with the director. “It’s an intense, romantic and a very looked-forward-to film for various reasons. I think it’s a labour of love of Bhansali. I had gone mad on Twitter after watching his last film (‘Bajirao Mastani’), appreciating everyone, and didn’t know I’d be part of his next film.

“It’s awesome to be working with someone whose work I have admired and loved, especially in the recent past. It is a great cast and going to be a huge film. I am really excited, but I want to underplay it, so I am trying to do that right now.”
