Although Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma opted for a secret hush-hush wedding, the news of this power couple tying the knot stirred a gigantic storm across the whole world, which does not seem to die down anytime soon.

Ever since the couple ‘Virushka’ officially confirmed their wedding on Twitter, their wedding and engagement pictures have been flooding the Internet; and no matter how many times we look at them, we just can’t get enough of this couple and their dream wedding in Tuscany, Italy.

The couple’s social media accounts are flooded with wishes from their fans, and amidst those wishes and gifts, there was one that especially touched our hearts. That special wedding gift was from none other than Sudarshan Pattnaik, the internationally acclaimed sand artist who has never failed to impress us with his impeccable sand artwork at Odisha’s Puri Beach. The Padma Shri Awardee, Pattnaik, dedicated this amazing sand sculpture to Indian Cricket team’s Captain Virat Kohli and ‘Sultan’ actress Anushka Sharma. 

He wrote, “Wedding gift for @imVkohli & @AnushkaSharma through my SandArt at Puri Beach in Odisha. Wishing both of you happy married life. #VirushkaWEDDING.”

Sudarshan’s sand sculpture not only left his fans impressed, but also won the heart of Anushka who thanked him and said that the couple is grateful for this gift.

This is so beautiful . We are both grateful, thank you �� https://t.co/6dvZz95Aar

The couple is now gearing up to hold two of the biggest wedding reception parties of this year. One will be held in Delhi on December 22, and the other will be hosted in Mumbai on December 26.

This year was quite an eventful one for Hollywood and all the movie junkies out there. If you ever thought that 2017 went by in the blink of an eye or was a really bland year, we’ve got something in store for you. Since, New Year is right around the corner; let’s take a look at these 10 reasons (read movies) that made 2017 one of the coolest years to live in. 

1. Dunkirk

Check Out The Top 10 Hollywood Movies Of 2017© Warner Bros.

Christopher Nolan needs no introduction. From a man who has earlier given us movies like ‘Interstellar’, ‘The Dark Knight’ and ‘Inception’; one can expect nothing but the best and sometimes even beyond that. His 2017 release ‘Dunkirk’ was no different. 

Set in the backdrop of World War II, ‘Dunkirk’ revolves around the allied soldiers from Belgium, the British Empire and France, who found themselves surrounded by the German Army. How they get safely evacuated after a fierce battle, weaves the rest of the story.    

2. Thor: Ragnarok

Check Out The Top 10 Hollywood Movies Of 2017© Marvel Entertainment

If there was to be an epitome for ‘The Midas Touch’, we would most definitely vouch for Marvel. They can turn anything into gold and ‘Thor: Ragnarok’ is proof. 

Yes, it is best Thor movie you will ever see! Yes, it is the same movie which Mark Ruffalo aka Hulk accidently live streamed a portion from, prior to the release! Yes, it is same movie that we would love to watch again and again and again. So folks, don’t wait for Christmas, go and watch it right now. 

3. Coco

Check Out The Top 10 Hollywood Movies Of 2017© Pixar

If there was anything that Disney and Pixar taught us this year, it was the fact that we can never grow old to watch an animated movie. And the immense popularity of ‘Coco’ is proof of the same. This movie has already grossed nearly $390 million worldwide and has also nominated for Best Animated Feature Film at the 75th Golden Globe Awards. 

The movie narrates the story of Miguel Rivera, a 12-year-old boy, who accidently gets transported to the land of the dead. There he meets his musician great-great-grandfather and seeks his help to reunite with his living family. Even if you are not someone who watches animated movies, give this at least one chance. The movie also has a hidden message, which you need you find out yourself.    

4. Justice League

*Drum Roll please*…Let’s get on with the much-talked about movie of this year, a movie that we have waited 10 years for, ‘Justice League’. We agree, the flick turned more heads for Superman’s airbrushed moustache than the new characters and their superpowers. But let’s not take away from the fact that this was one movie that compelled us to say, “We came! We saw! And we never got over it.”

And for all the critics who feel that this movie was a disappointment, let’s take revenge on them by making them watch Hindi superhero movies.      

5. IT

Until last year, whenever someone made plans to watch a horror movie, people could not think beyond ‘The Exorcist’, ‘The Conjuring’, ‘Death Note’ or ‘The Ring’. But, after the release of ‘It’, things changed and how. Maybe, this is the charm or should we say fear of Stephen King’s novels. 

Even today, people might not remember what they did two days back, but they surely remember Pennywise, the evil clown who loves to feast on innocent children. While Stephen King did a fantastic job with the novel, director Andrés Muschietti left no stone unturned in making the movie adaptation bigger and scarier than any horror movies out there in the market. 

6. Blade Runner 2049

We don’t think we can get over this picture of Ryan Gosling anytime soon.  

Check Out The Top 10 Hollywood Movies Of 2017© Columbia Pictures

Now that we saw this picture, let’s talk about the movie it is from – ‘Blade Runner 2049’. If we were to explain this movie in one word, we would possible use either ‘Exceptional’ or ‘Brilliant’; and the fact that it has already grossed $256 million worldwide, is kind of reassuring that we are not wrong. 

Set 30 years after the first film, this one will take you through the life of Officer K (played by Gosling), a new blade runner for the Los Angeles Police Department. His unravels a long-buried secret and…we won’t tell you the whole story. Go and watch the movie, right now. 

7. Logan

Another fantastic superhero movie from Marvel, ‘Logan’ is the 10th installment in the ‘X-Men’ series and final solo movie of our beloved superhero Wolverine. The movie has already grossed $616 million worldwide, becoming this year’s second highest grossing R-rated film (‘It’ is the first). We don’t think we need to say anything in addition to it or explain why you should watch it. All we can say is, you are missing out on some really cool stuff, if you haven’t seen it already. 

‘Logan’ features an aged Wolverine along with an extremely ill Professor X, who set out to save Laura (she was created from Wolverine’s DNA), from the evil forces Reaves and Alkali-Transigen led by Donald Pierce and Zander Rice.  

8. Baby Driver

‘Baby Driver’ is probably one of the best action movies of 2017, with a musical touch that makes it all the more intriguing. ‘The Fault In Our Stars’ actor Ansel Elgort did a fabulous job as the talented (music obsessed) getaway driver named Baby, who is forced into working for a mysterious kingpin (Kevin Spacey) of a gang of bank robbers.

In other news, Director Edgar Wright has already teased the fans that a sequel is “being hammered out”. 

9. Wonder Woman

If there was an award for the best season (we are talking about weather and not a show), summer of 2017 will possibly win that prize without any competition. Reason? Gal Gadot, our ‘Wonder Woman’. She was the primary reason for all the heat and rise in temperature we all witnessed. 

Want proof? How about we tell you that this movie was the 8th highest grossing film of 2017, after it earned a whopping $821 million globally! 

Still need reasons? It singlehandedly destroyed everything that Marvel worked hard for. 

Still not sure whether to watch it? Well go and watch it for Gal Gadot and how she turns into one of the most badass superheroes this world has ever seen.   

10. Get Out

Check Out The Top 10 Hollywood Movies Of 2017© Universal Pictures

Written and directed by Jordan Peele, ‘Get Out’ is a horror movie that follows the lives of a young couple, who visit the woman’s parents, only to witness a series of strange events that scar the man’s life forever. It is an amazing movie that was critically acclaimed to be one of the best films of this year. 

So peeps, go ahead and tag your friends to make a movie marathon plan with them. Also let us know about your favourite movies from 2017, which did not make it to this list.

Are you alien to Bollywood and the humungous list of movies it has in its bag? Are you someone who has barely watched a handful of Hindi movies? Well, even if you have ticked the above boxes, there are certain names you will remember no matter what and Karan Johar is one such name. 

From making a cameo appearance in ‘Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge’ to becoming one of the most sought after and successful directors in Bollywood, Karan Johar or as some call him KJo, has come a long way.

Even if you don’t remember most of his films, there is no way on earth that people will forget his directorial debut film! It was a movie which gave us a character no one else can ever dare to recreate – the one and only diva ‘Poo’. Yes, we are talking about ‘Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Ghum’ that completed 16 years today. Do you feel old already? We surely do. 

#I6yearsofK3G….a film that is exceptionally close to my heart….have the most beautiful memories…thank you @SrBachchan @iamsrk @iHrithik @kajol #jayaaunty #kareena #rani for making my experience so special….

A post shared by Karan Johar (@karanjohar) on Dec 13, 2017 at 10:50am PST

Even today, the wave of ‘K3G’ rules our minds, thanks to the ensemble cast, brilliant acting and of course an over-the-board script that struck the right chord with the audience.

And now that very movie has completed 16 years and its proud director KJo shared an amazing series of pictures that took us right down memory lane. He posted pictures from behind the scenes and brought back all those amazing memories attached with the film.

We can already imagine Karan Johar saying (in Poo’s style) “You’re so P.H.A.T…Pretty Hot And Tempting”. 

It seems I was obsessed with Poo!!!! #16yearsofk3g

A post shared by Karan Johar (@karanjohar) on Dec 13, 2017 at 9:54pm PST

And we found another reason to go and watch ‘Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Ghum’ again. 

Last minute adjustments #16yearsofk3g

A post shared by Karan Johar (@karanjohar) on Dec 13, 2017 at 9:55pm PST

While we were swimming in the pool of nostalgia, it was Kajol who stole the limelight with her hilarious reply. After Karan posted the picture, Kajol was quick to recollect that it was the same shot that was taken when she broke her finger and was on painkillers. 

K3G Completes 16 Years© Dharma Productions

As we were containing our excitement after reading their replies, Farah Khan too jumped into the banter and started a separate hilarious discussion altogether.

From Amitabh Bachchan playing a typical patriarch, Shah Rukh Khan playing his obedient son who falls in love with a free-spirited Kajol and leaves the house when Amitabh disapproves of her, to Laddoo’s insane body transformation and the self-obsessed Poo; every character made the movie a memorable affair for all Bollywood fans. But if at all there was a K3G sequel to be made, we would want a movie solely focusing on Poo’s life.

Think of the worst nightmare you have ever had in your life? Not multiply it ten times and add elements from movies like ‘Alien’, ‘Jaws’, ‘Predator’, and ‘Contact’. The creepy and bone-chilling result that you will get is the dish that director Alex Garland has prepared for all the sci-fi fan lovers out there, which will not be served piping hot, but cold and bloody.

The man who earlier gave us ‘Ex-Machina’, memories of which are still fresh in our minds, in back in action with yet another intriguing sci-fi fantasy thriller ‘Annihilation’ starring Natalie Portman. Although we never had any doubts about Alex Garland’s directorial prowess, after this trailer we are confirmed that there is no one in this world who can match up with Garland’s creative ingenuity. Or maybe they can, given how this movie shares striking resemblance with ‘Contact’.

Annihilation trailer natalie portman© Paramount Pictures

‘Annihilation’ is based on the novel of the same name by Jeff VanderMeer, and features Natalie Portman as a biologist, who sets out on a mission to find out what happened with her seriously ill husband and what’s hidden on the other side of a mysterious and mesmerizing boundary. Portman is then joined by four other women and together they try to discover the bizarre place and run for safety at the same time.

What’s worse than going inside an unknown surreal world and finding yourself trapped there? Being welcomed by and stuck with creatures that will stop at nothing to feast on you. Those women realize this in the most bloodcurdling way after they find out that it’s not any regular place and even the plants and animals are weirdly mutated. When we say weird, we mean a crocodile that has teeth like shark.  

Natalie Portman who is known for her roles in movies like ‘Black Swan’ and ‘V for Vendetta’ plays a badass biologist, who goes to extreme lengths to find the mystery behind that Area X and why are they trying to harm the humanity. She totally had our attention in the first few seconds of the trailer, when she shot down mutated creatures, without batting an eyelid.

If you thought that Hollywood has broken up with Aliens or mysterious creatures, 2018 and Alex Garland is going to give you what you been missing and craving for all this while – an action packed sci-fi fantasy thriller that is sure to hit the top spot of your binge-watch list. 

Alex Garland’s ‘Annihilation’ also features Jennifer Jason Leigh, Tuva Novotny, Gina Rodriguez, Oscar Isaac and Tessa Thompson. ‘Annihilation’ is expected to release on February 23, 2018.

Mark this date in the calendar folks!

It’s one of the biggest days for both Cricket and Entertainment world – not because a Bollywood movie was nominated for Oscars, neither is it a match won by Team India today. People are rejoicing because our favourite power couple, Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma, FINALLY, got married.

Wikipedia Had Already Predicted Virat And Anushka's Wedding Before Anyone Else, Here's ProofSource: Twitter

Amidst all the wedding rumours and Anushka’s spokesperson denying the wedding reports earlier, the couple who have been dating each other for quite some time now, finally tied the knot in the romantic city of Tuscany.

While, most of us were still thinking of it as a rumour and waiting for the wedding pictures to flood the internet, someone had already confirmed the news for the whole world. That someone, is none other than ‘our one stop solution to any and every problem in the world’, Wikipedia.

Don’t believe us? Well check this out:

Wikipedia Had Already Predicted Virat And Anushka's Wedding Before Anyone Else, Here's ProofSource: Wikipedia

On one hand, where we all are looking for confirmation on Virat and Anushka’s wedding, Wikipedia had already announced Virat as Anushka’s ‘spouse’ aka husband and after spotting this, our excitement truly knows no bounds.

Earlier, a source revealed to MensXP that a couple of functions are taking place. While one was supposed to be held at Florence, the other was to be held at Milan. The wedding was reportedly attended by some of the closest friends and family members.

Now that Wikipedia’s prediction turned out to be true, let’s virtually clink our wine glasses to raise a toast for this power couple.

At an age when kids meet new people and make friends at school, Tennessee middle schooler, Keaton Jones is afraid to go to class or even go for lunch. Reason? Because Keaton was constantly bullied by other kids at school. Keaton’s mother, Kimberly recently posted a heart-wrenching video, where Keaton broke down in tears while narrating the pain of being bullied at school.

In the video, Keaton talks about how other kids poured milk on him during lunch, threw food on his clothes, and mocked him for being who he was. Why? What joy does anyone get by bullying someone? Even as kids, mocking or targeting someone is not okay.

Keaton’s mother Kimberly shared this message along with the video, “My kids are by no stretch perfect, and at home, he’s as all boy as they come, but by all accounts he’s good at school. Talk to your kids. I’ve even has friends of mine tell me kids were only nice to him to get him to mess with people. We all know how it feels to want to belong, but only a select few know how it really feels not to belong anywhere.”

Ever since the video surfaced, Keaton has found enormous support from across the world, with more and more people using the hashtag “standwithkeaton” to stand in solidarity with him. Especially our Hollywood actors and celebrities are going all out to support Keaton.

Captain America aka Chris Evans too tweeted in support of Keaton and invited him and his mother for the Avengers premiere in LA next year.            

Stay strong, Keaton. Don’t let them make you turn cold. I promise it gets better. While those punks at your school are deciding what kind of people they want to be in this world, how would you and your mom like to come to the Avengers premiere in LA next year? https://t.co/s1QwCQ3toi

It’s an incredible gesture from Evans and Ruffalo. They turned out to be superheroes in real life as well. Soon enough, other stars too started coming out in support of Keaton. Hailee Steinfeld posted this video and invited Keaton to the premiere of ‘Pitch Perfect 3’.

— KATY PERRY (@katyperry) 10 December 2017

Despite being heartbroken and upset with bullying, Keaton tried to encourage others who were being bullied similarly. He said, “People that are different don’t need to be criticized about it. It’s not their fault. But if you are made fun of, just don’t let it bother you. Stay strong, I guess.”

We just want to know, what exactly are we trying our kids? That it’s fine to bully your classmates in the name of ‘fun’? Folks, bullying is NOT ok, not today, not as kids, never.

Recently our beloved Bollywood stars came under one roof to celebrate the second birthday of Rani Mukherji and Aditya Chopra’s daughter Adira. While, the kids and their gorgeous mommies seemed to be having a gala time at the birthday bash, there was someone who was re-living her childhood by tapping into her inner toddler. From playing a badass special agent to trolling her fans with gravity defying workout, Katrina Kaif can effortlessly sweep us off our feet without us realizing it. 

This time around, she was casually partying at Adira’s birthday bash, yet she floored us all with these posts that have ‘Bollywood’s newest adorable kid’ written all over it. 

While the Internet was crushing over Kareena’s gorgeous boy Taimur Ali Khan, bonding and making friends with Karan Johar’s kids Roohi and Yash; Katrina Kaif came along and gave these toddlers a tough competition like no one else.   

Check out this insanely cute video where Katrina is seen riding a toy train with Salman Khan’s nephew Ahil and smoothly taking home the award for the cutest kid at baby Adira’s birthday bash.   

Katrina Kaif(@katrinakaif) takes Salman Khan’s nephew Ahil for a ride at Adira’s birthday! @glamouralertofficial 😘😘😘 * * * #KatrinaKaif #AhilSharma #AdiraChopra #SalmanKhan #ArpitaKhan #Adira #Bollywood #StarKids #Birthday #BirthdayParty#Cute #Cuteness #Adorable #Fashion #TigerZindaHai #GlamourAlert

Most of us hadn’t even finished watching the video and Katrina had already dropped another bomb on us. As we all know Katrina Kaif’s upcoming film ‘Tiger Zinda Hai’ is already knocking on our doors, straightening its collar and waiting for us to open; but before the release of the movie, Katrina and Tiger decided to have a great time and Adira’s birthday was the perfect opportunity for the two. 

Found my �🌟#tigerzindahai

A post shared by Katrina Kaif (@katrinakaif) on Dec 9, 2017 at 9:03am PST

The two definitely make for a great couple, what do you guys think? ‘Tiger Zinda Hai’ is slated to release on December 22, 2017.

If one was to explain a larger than life experience in one word, the first thing that will come to our minds is Bollywood. Nothing, I repeat nothing can beat Bollywood movies, when it comes to masala, big fat weddings or parties. But, actress Rani Mukherji proved us wrong by hosting this lavish and grand (please add a couple of extra ‘A’s in your mind) party, which looked like a scene from a big-budget film, sans the script. 

While we were still recuperating from the glitz and glamour at Shah Rukh Khan’s Alibaug birthday party, Bollywood was all geared up to have a gala time at Rani Mukherji’s daughter Adira’s birthday as she turned two this year. And we were not exaggerating when we said that it was a grand party, the guests vouch for the same. Shilpa Shetty, posted a picture from the birthday on her Instagram and captioned it, “Adira’s birthday party was like the premier of a magnum opus. Well done, Rani Mukherji.”  

#AdirasBirthdayparty was like the premier of a magnum opus😬😂Ha ha Well done #Rani happiest birthday to your doll😘😘#gettogether #friends #fun #celebration #picoftheseason

A post shared by Shilpa Shetty Kundra (@theshilpashetty) on Dec 9, 2017 at 8:01am PST

The line-up of guests was pretty impressive and these pictures are proof that Bollywood sure knows how to party, be it on-screen or in real life. 

The party was reportedly hosted by Rani and Aditya Chopra at the Yash Raj Studios on Saturday evening. From Shah Rukh Khan, Karishma Kapoor, Kareena Kapoor Khan to Karan Johar, everyone attended the birthday with their kids and instantly gave us a rush nostalgia of how we used to celebrate birthdays as kids. 

Our parents too used to accompany us at our friend’s birthday bash and interact with other parents while we stuffed our mouths with whatever cake was left on the table. 

Well, this ‘parents’ meet’ was surely something and this picture of Kareena’s kid Taimur hanging out with Karan Johar’s kids Yash and Roohi, and making new friends, is possibly the cutest take-away from the party. 

And a new friendship begins….#yash #roohi #taimur

A post shared by Karan Johar (@karanjohar) on Dec 9, 2017 at 6:17am PST

Karishma Kapoor too posted pictures from the birthday party on Instagram and thanked Rani for “a lovely evening.”

If you are an avid fan of manga, then the name Yukito Kishiro, will most definitely not sound alien to you. Japanese manga artist, Kishiro, needs no introduction. After all, he is the man who gave us classics like ‘Kikai’ and ‘Battle Angel Alita’. If you are still scratching your heads wondering what’s so special about the ones mentioned above or what is manga in the first place, trust me folks, you are missing out on one of the best things in the world. 

Don’t worry guys, Hollywood has decided to take care of the former part, i.e. introducing you to one of Kishiro’s critically acclaimed manga series, by turning it into a movie adaptation.  With the names like James Cameron and Robert Rodriguez associated with it, we can already imagine how kickass the movie is going to be. In fact, this bomb of a trailer dropped by 20th Century Fox proves that we are not wrong.

Check Out The Trailer Of James Cameron's 'Alita: Battle Angel'© 20th Century Fox

Set in the 26th century, this movie revolves around Alita, an amnesiac female cyborg, who was rescued from a scrapyard by Dr. Ido (played by Christoph Waltz). Alita has no memory of her past or why she is so special. How she eventually unravels her past, while beating the shit out of vicious criminals and evil forces, weaves the rest of the story.Don’t get deceived by her looks. She might look like a doll or a harmless cyborb, but her badassery shows how deadly this woman can be for her enemies.

Check out the trailer here. 

 

Had it been an animated movie, we would not have raised our eyebrows or felt weird about our protagonist’s facial features – particularly her haunting eyes. Honestly, throughout the trailer it was very hard to look away from her eyes, not because it was love at first sight or something, but because they were unimaginably BIG.  Let’s give a shout out to the VFX team of this movie, who turned a real life actress into a spitting image of an animated character.

We couldn’t believe our eyes either and would have continued considering her an animated character, had we not come across the credits. The character of Alita (who looks like an anime character) is played by Rosa Salazar, who was made to look like a cyborg, thanks to the use CGI. Maybe, it’s an intentional choice to remind people throughout the movie that she is not human. 

Well, at least Salazar was in safe hands and not the ones who spent $25 million to airbrush Henry Superman Cavill’s moustache that made him look like Shrek’s white brother.

Robert Rodriguez, who has earlier given us classics like ‘Sin City’, ‘Machete’, ‘Spy Kids’ and ‘From Dusk till Dawn’, will put on the director’s hat for this project that has been in talks for more than a decade now. James Cameron, who was earlier helming the movie before taking up ‘Avatar’, will now take on the role of the producer.   

‘Alita: Battle Angel’ also stars Eiza Gonzalez, Jennifer Connelly, Michelle Rodriguez, Mahershala Ali and Casper Van Dien. The bug-eyed…sorry…we mean ‘big-eyed’ heroine is coming to blow yours minds away on July 20, 2018.

The Indian Cricket team is currently preoccupied with a lot of things, and the main agenda on their minds right now is possibly not how to win against South Africa in the upcoming series, but strategizing what to wear next for their teammates’ weddings or reception parties. 

In the past few days, many of our favourite cricketers have tied the nuptial knot and their pictures have set the internet on fire.

While we still haven’t recuperated from all the hotness that we saw at Zaheer Khan and Sagarika Ghatge’s reception, cricketers were already set to have a gala time at Bhuvneshwar Kumar’s reception. 

Bhuvneshwar Kumar, who got married to Nupur Nagar in a private ceremony on November 23, hosted a grand reception party at the Taj Hotel in Delhi on Tuesday. From Virat Kohli, Shikhar Dhawan, Rohit Sharma to Ravindra Jadeja and Cheteshwar Pujara, most of his teammates gathered, all decked up to wish the couple.

These pictures from the celebrations are proof that our cricketers sure know how to party like there’s no tomorrow.  

MS Dhoni was also present.

Both Bhuvneshwar and his wife looked like characters straight out of a romantic fairytale and we can’t wait for the next celebrity wedding to take place. And, if the rumours are to be believed, then Indian skipper Virat Kohli and actress Anushka Sharma might be next in line.
