Shocking! Indian man dies from wife's punch over her unmet Dubai birthday plans

<p>Tabu, one of Bollywood's most prolific actors, turned a year older today (Nov 4). Known for her exceptional acting skills, she has impressed audience&nbsp;with her versatility in every role she has played over the years.</p>

<p>Apart from her professional life as an actor, Tabu is happily single and has no regrets about it.</p>

<p>Over the years, Tabu has often spoken about her decision to remain unmarried and her views on ideal relationships. On her birthday, here we have brought&nbsp;an old interview of the&nbsp;<em>Haider</em> actress when she jokingly disclosed the name of the actor who is responsible for her single status.</p>

<h2><strong>Tabu revealed the real reason behind never getting married</strong></h2>

<p>While Tabu loves her life as single, a few years ago, she once stated that Ajay Devgn was the reason she remains single to date. While promoting their film <em>Golmaal Again,</em> Tabu shared with the Mumbai Mirror in 2017 that because of Ajay and her cousin's actions, she's still single.</p>

<p>She told the outlet, “Ajay and I have known each other for 25 years. He was my cousin Sameer Arya's neighbour and close buddy, a part of my growing up years and that has laid the foundation of our relationship. When I was young, Sameer and Ajay would spy on me, follow me around and threaten to beat up any boys who were caught talking to me. They were the big bullies and if I am&nbsp;single today, it is because of Ajay. I hope he repents and regrets what he did."</p>

<p>Ajay and Tabu have known each other for a very long time and share a deep bond and special friendship. They have worked in multiple films together, such as <em>Golmaal Again, Haqeeqat, Bholaa, Thakshak, and Drishyam.</em></p>

<h2><strong>Tabu on being&nbsp;single.</strong></h2>

<p>In 2019, Tabu shared her perspective on being single, her relationship, and how everything changes over time.&nbsp;</p>

In the 2019 interview, the<em> Drishyam </em>actress said, as per HT, “A man-woman relationship is a complicated thing. When we are young, we have an idea of love. Then we grow, have new experiences, get independent, and outgrow some things. I was working and wanted to see the world on my own. If I’d have given it all up, it’d have been a disservice to me and my ability.''</p>

<p>''An ideal relationship is when both individuals grow just by being in each other’s lives. Relationships are meant to liberate, not stifle. I know my thinking is a bit different. For instance, I have never thought of men and women as different in a relationship. Does gender matter over the individual people you are?"</p>

SS Rajamouli 50th Birthday: How well do you know 'Baahubali' filmmaker?

<p>Many are frightened that Russian President Vladimir Putin might order the&nbsp;test of the Burevestnik missile, often referred to as the "Flying Chernobyl," known for its capability to stay airborne for extended periods while assessing potential vulnerabilities in Western defences, several media outlets reported. If this test materialises, it would mark the 14th attempt to launch the Burevestnik missile, following 13 previous failed efforts, as per reports. Speculation is rife that preparations for the missile test are currently underway, timed with President Putin's 71st birthday celebration.</p>

<h2><strong>Satellite data</strong>&nbsp;</h2>

<p>According to a report by the New York Times, satellite imagery and aviation data point to ongoing preparations around an Arctic base. This reportedly mirrors patterns seen before during the Burevestnik tests in 2017 and 2018.</p>

<p>The nuke, which is also called SSC-X-9 Skyfall, has a checkered history, including 13 unsuccessful tests, with one in 2019 resulting in the deaths of seven individuals attempting to salvage the top-secret weapon. This was a tragedy for which no official explanation was provided. Russian President only said that those who lost their lives were ‘national heroes’.</p>

<h2><strong>Game-changing 'doomsday' weapon</strong></h2>

<p>The Burevestnik missile is considered a game-changing 'doomsday' weapon with a potential range of up to 14,000 miles, allowing it to strike anywhere in the US from Russian territory. The missile is also designed to fly at low altitudes, which would make it difficult to detect and intercept by existing Western air defence systems.</p>

Will Smith's journey from a rapper to a successful actor is well known. But did you know that Hollywood's daredevil is scared of the ocean? Check out more such rare facts about the actor.

Happy birthday, Will Smith

<p><em><strong>Trigger warning: Some readers may find details of this report disturbing. Discretion is advised.</strong></em></p>

<p>On August 5, which marks the birth anniversary of Shraddha Walkar, her father Vikas Madan Walkar testified in a court in New Delhi. The court was recording the statements of the witnesses in connection with Walkar's sensational killing by her live-in-partner Aaftab Amin Poonawala last year.<br />
<br />
Vikas said in the court that Poonawala had disclosed to him that he chopped the body of Shraddha into pieces in the toilet after killing her and then threw the pieces in a forested area near Chhattarpur, reported news agency ANI.<br />
<br />
28-year-old Poonawala, who was in a live-in relationship with Shraddha, had strangulated the latter on May 18 last year. The accused then dismembered Shraddha's body, stored the body parts in a fridge and gradually threw them at desolate places across Delhi.</p>

<p>The statement of Vikas, who is the case's key prosecution witness, was recorded by additional sessions judge Manisha Khurana Kakkar on Saturday (August 5). His cross-examination was deferred by the court on August 9 after recording his examination.<br />
<br />
While recording the statement, Vikas also said that 13 bones were discovered by the Delhi Police, which included a pelvic bone from a place that was identified by the accused in the investigation.</p>

<h2><strong>'Chopped pieces were kept in trash bags inside the fridge'</strong></h2>

<p>The refrigerator, which was brought inside the court during the hearing to be exhibited as evidence, was also identified by Vikas. Some wooden pieces were also submitted in the court as evidence, with suspected blood stains on them.<br />
<br />
In the court, Vikas said that Poonawala packed the chopped pieces in trash bags and kept them in the fridge, before disposing them. He said that the trash bag would be removed by Poonawala from the fridge and kept on a shelf in the kitchen, whenever his new girlfriend visited him.<br />
<br />
Vikas further identified other evidence related to the murder case. In the courtroom, audio and video clips of conversations held between Shraddha and Poonwala were also played.</p>

<p>Shraddha's father was cross-examined for two hours by advocate Akshay Bhandari, the counsel for the accused. His cross-examination will now be recorded on August 9. Vikas had earlier claimed that Poonawala had told him that he had "strangulated" her with “his own hands”, reported news agency PTI.<br />
<br />
Vikas further testified that he visited the Mehrauli police station on November 11, 2022, where he was questioned by the police officials if he recognised Poonawala.<br />
<br />
"I replied in the affirmative and said this is Poonawala, who was living with my daughter for the last three years. I also informed the police that he quarrelled with my daughter and beat her up on several occasions," said Vikas.</p>

Trigger warning: Some readers may find details of this report disturbing. Discretion is advised. On August 5, which marks the birth anniversary of Shraddha Walkar, her father Vikas Madan Walkar testified in a court in New Delhi. The court was recording the statements of the witnesses in connection with Walkar's sensational killing by her live-in-partner Aaftab Amin Poonawala last year. Vikas said in the court that Poonawala had disclosed to him that he chopped the body of Shraddha into pieces in the toilet after killing her and then threw the pieces in a forested area near Chhattarpur, reported news agency ANI. 28-year-old Poonawala, who was in a live-in relationship with Shraddha, had strangulated the latter on May 18 last year. The accused then dismembered Shraddha's body, stored the body parts in a fridge and gradually threw them at desolate places across Delhi.

His cross-examination was deferred by the court on August 9 after recording his examination. While recording the statement, Vikas also said that 13 bones were discovered by the Delhi Police, which included a pelvic bone from a place that was identified by the accused in the investigation. 'Chopped pieces were kept in trash bags inside the fridge' The refrigerator, which was brought inside the court during the hearing to be exhibited as evidence, was also identified by Vikas. Some wooden pieces were also submitted in the court as evidence, with suspected blood stains on them. In the court, Vikas said that Poonawala packed the chopped pieces in trash bags and kept them in the fridge, before disposing them. He said that the trash bag would be removed by Poonawala from the fridge and kept on a shelf in the kitchen, whenever his new girlfriend visited him. Vikas further identified other evidence related to the murder case. In the courtroom, audio and video clips of conversations held between Shraddha and Poonwala were also played.

His cross-examination will now be recorded on August 9. Vikas had earlier claimed that Poonawala had told him that he had "strangulated" her with “his own hands”, reported news agency PTI. Vikas further testified that he visited the Mehrauli police station on November 11, 2022, where he was questioned by the police officials if he recognised Poonawala. "I replied in the affirmative and said this is Poonawala, who was living with my daughter for the last three years. I also informed the police that he quarrelled with my daughter and beat her up on several occasions," said Vikas. You can now write for wionews.com and be a part of the community.

<p>A family of nine from Pakistan has made headlines by setting a Guinness World Record for sharing the same day&nbsp;of birth in the year.</p>

<p>All the nine members of the Mangi family, residing in Pakistan, proudly celebrate&nbsp;their birthday&nbsp;on 1 August, establishing a world record for the most family members born on the same day of the year, reported Zee News.</p>

<h2><strong>Coinciding birthdays</strong></h2>

<p>Ameer Ali and his wife Khudeja, the parents of seven children, were astonished when all of their children were born on August 1.</p>

<p>Their eldest child, Sindhoo, arrived on 1 August 1992, followed by the births of twin girls Sasui and Sapna. Subsequently, Aamir and Ambar were born, and the twin brothers Ammar and Ahmar joined the family in later years.</p>

<p>This unique coincidence has earned them the world record for the most siblings born on the same day.</p>

<p>Remarkably, all the children in the Mangi family were born through natural deliveries.</p>

<p>Neither cesarean sections nor premature deliveries were involved, and Khudeja did not experience early labour.</p>

<p>Additionally, Ameer and Khudeja also celebrate their wedding anniversary as their and their children's birthdays, as they got married on 1 August 1991.</p>

<p>German-born physicist Albert Einstein (1879–1955) is recognised as one of the most important figures in science throughout the 20th century. His most famous contribution is the theory of relativity, which dramatically altered how we think about space and time.</p>

<p>While he was born in Ulm, Germany, Einstein later relocated to Switzerland as a youngster. Thereafter, he pursued physics studies at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich, where he graduated. At Bern, Switzerland, where he was employed as a patent clerk after receiving his degree, Einstein had plenty of time to reflect on theoretical physics.</p>

<p>Einstein wrote several papers in 1905 that served as the cornerstone of modern physics. One of these was his theory of special relativity, which demonstrated that the laws of physics apply to any observer moving uniformly concerning every other observer. The well-known formula E=mc2, which indicates that mass and energy are equivalent, was also presented by this theory.</p>

<p>Einstein's general relativity theory, which expanded the concepts of special relativity to incorporate gravity, was published in 1915. This theory demonstrated that gravity is a curvature of space and time brought on by the existence of mass and energy rather than a force.</p>

<p><strong>Here are some motivational quotes by Albert Einstein:</strong></p>

<ul>
	<li>"In the middle of difficulty lies opportunity."</li>
	<li>"Logic will get you from A to B. Imagination will take you everywhere."</li>
	<li>"I have no special talents. I am only passionately curious."</li>
	<li>"Try not to become a man of success, but rather try to become a man of value."</li>
	<li>"The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its reason for existing."</li>
	<li>"We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them."</li>
	<li>"Education is not the learning of facts, but the training of the mind to think."</li>
	<li>"The true sign of intelligence is not knowledge but imagination."</li>
	<li>"Creativity is contagious, pass it on."</li>
	<li>"I never made one of my discoveries through the process of rational thinking."</li>
	<li>"Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world."</li>
	<li>"A person who never made a mistake never tried anything new."</li>
	<li>"Amid every crisis, lies great opportunity."</li>

<ul>
	<li>In the year 1879, Albert Einstein was born in Ulm, Germany.</li>
	<li>His parents were concerned that he had a speech problem because he was a slow talker, but he was organising complicated ideas in his head before he spoke.</li>
	<li>When Einstein was a little child, his family relocated to Italy, and he later attended school in Switzerland.</li>
	<li>At Bern, Switzerland, where he was employed, Einstein had the leisure to contemplate physics and formulate his theories.</li>

</ul>

<p><strong>Albert Einstein's inventions and discoveries</strong></p>

<p>Even while Albert Einstein is most recognised for his contributions to physics, particularly his theories of relativity, he also made several other discoveries and inventions throughout his lifetime.&nbsp;<strong>Here are a few examples:</strong></p>

<ol>
	<li>Einstein presented a paper on the photoelectric effect in 1905, proving that light may exist as both a wave and a particle and that energy is conveyed in discrete units known as photons. This discovery contributed to the development of quantum mechanics.</li>
	<li>The Theory of Special Relativity: Einstein's theory of special relativity, which was published in 1905, demonstrated that the laws of physics apply to all observers moving uniformly concerning one another. The well-known formula E=mc2, which indicates that mass and energy are equivalent, was also presented by this theory.</li>
	<li>Brownian Motion: Einstein also wrote a paper on this topic in 1905, demonstrating how the size and shape of a particle may be determined from its random motion in a fluid.</li>
	<li>Einstein's general relativity theory, which expanded the concepts of special relativity to incorporate gravity, was published in 1915. This theory demonstrated that gravity is a curvature of space and time brought on by the existence of mass and energy rather than a force.</li>
	<li>Einstein designed a refrigerator in 1926 that had neither electricity nor any mechanical parts. The system was designed on the adsorption principle, which cools a substance using a vacuum.</li>
	<li>Unified Field Theory: Einstein devoted a significant portion of his later years to the pursuit of a unified field theory that would integrate all of nature's forces into a single theoretical framework. Even though he was unsuccessful in his attempt, his work opened the door for subsequent attempts to formulate a theory of everything.</li>
</ol>

<p>Ultimately, Albert Einstein's innovations and discoveries had a significant influence on both modern science and technology as well as how we interpret the physical world.</p>

She told the magazine that growing up in such a strange area had instilled in her an unusual amount of excitement for fall and the holiday season. She even released a Christmas song called "Christmas Tree Farm" in 2019 with a video made out of memories from her childhood.</p>

<p><strong>Fun Fact # 2 Some of her songs are texts she wanted to send to people in her life&nbsp;</strong></p>

<p>Over the years, Taylor has also delivered a number of enchanting performances at the show. In a 2014 Rolling Stone interview, Taylor said sometimes the lines in a song are lines "you wish you could text-message somebody in real life." Taylor Swift is normally tight-lipped about the individuals she sings about in her songs, but she hasn't been reluctant to drop a few names over the years. Taylor has deviated from her usual tact and identified individual names in the lyrics of a number of these songs. She has also named a few on her more recent folklore and evermore albums.</p>

<p>Vladimir Putin, the president of Russia, turns 70 today,&nbsp;days after&nbsp;Moscow mobilised its military, threatened to use nuclear weapons, and moved to annex a large portion of Ukraine.

<p>The 27 nations that make up the bloc will now get the plan, and in order for the new measures to be put into effect, they will need to put aside their differences on them.</p>

<p>Putin warned the West on September 21 that he was serious when he stated he would be prepared to use nuclear weapons to defend Russia. He also ordered Russia's first mobilisation since World War Two and supported a proposal to take large portions of Ukraine.</p>
