<p>A picture of an Afghan refugee, which was reshared by world-renowned photographer Steve McCurry on Tuesday, has created a buzz on social media. If you are wondering what is special about this image, the man in it resembles actor Amitabh Bachchan. In 2018, this image of an old bearded man in a turban had gone viral. The man can also be seen wearing a spectacle. At that time, the netizens thought it to be it from the sets of his film ‘Thugs of Hindostan’. It was widely shared on several platforms. &nbsp;</p>

Is it Amitabh Bachchan? Afghan refugee’s picture resurfaces, creates buzz online

<p>An African flamingo, who is numbered 492, has been living the life of a fugitive. Well, not literally. Around 17 years ago, the bird had made a daring escape from a zoo in the US state of Kansas and now it has resurfaced in Texas, which is around 700 miles (1,100 kilometres) to the south. &nbsp;</p>

<p>In 2005, the bird, which was nicknamed Pink Floyd by Texas officials, fled the Sedgwick County Zoo when keepers failed to clip its wings, a New York Times report said. &nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

<p>The survival of the flamingo in the wild was highly unlikely. Another flamingo, No 347, had also fled. It hasn’t been seen yet. No 492 was spotted by a fishing guide David Foreman this month. &nbsp;</p>
