Joker 2 Trailer: 5 Reasons Why The Film Is A Must-Watch

Pairing powerhouse performers like Joaquin Phoenix and Lady Gaga together in what makers are calling a musical mayhem, Todd Phillips’ Joker 2 is a must-watch for all those who enjoy watching art. Nothing short of a spectacle, here are 5 reasons why we suggest watching Joker 2 on October 24 in theatres. 

It stars none other than Joaquin Phoenix and Lady Gaga as Joker and Harley Quinn as they romance, dance, laugh and act crazy in the streets of Gotham. 

The film will show a different origin story of Harley Quinn – very different from what we’ve seen or read before. In earlier stories, Harley plays a psychiatrist who falls in love with her patient but in the new Joker film, she’s at the same wavelength with Joker, sharing prison and getting the same treatment. 

Joker 2 will be a musical film –  From Harley Quinn practicing with a choir, to a stage performance, a spotlight falling on Joker, and a lot more.

We might also get two Jokers since the trailer teases what seems like Arthur (Joaquin’s character) running away from a duplicate of his alter ego character of Joker. 

As they create mayhem on the streets of Gotham, Joker finds sympathisers who want him to be free. Trailer teases what looks like people holding placards reading “Free Joker” outside the jail. This could mean more chaos but who’s complaining?

Jon Snow Spinoff Scrapped But GoT Character Is Still A Fav

With no new story to tell, Kit Harington confirmed recently that the Jon Snow spinoff is not happening and that the makers have called it off. He said it’s “off the table” since they “couldn’t find the right story to tell”. But are we over Jon Snow?

The rightful heir to the Iron Throne deserves a spinoff series more than any dynasty or House of Game of Thrones according to fans worldwide.

Former King of the North and Lord Commander of the Night's Watch, Jon Snow deserved to sit on the Iron Throne, courtesy of his bloodline and the personal struggles he faced.

Honest and truthful, Jon Snow was pretty much at the centre of things ever since the story in Game of Thrones took off. Not once did the fans get a letdown by Jon Snow who was okay with whatever life gave him. He took it all in his stride – from being called a bastard son to becoming King in the North.

Even when he got to know about his claim to the Iron Throne, he didn’t fancy the idea of it. 

After getting it all towards the end of the show, Jon Snow was okay leaving it all for the sake of justice. While many fans disapproved, it reflected on his character and proved till the very end that he was indeed a Stark (if only half).

Lok Sabha Elections 2024: Modi’s NDA Gets a Thackeray in Maharashtra


For a long time, the BJP was a second fiddle to Balasaheb Thackeray’s Shiv Sena in the state of Maharashtra. But the political flux has given a new turn to the game of thrones on the land of Marathas.

Maharashtra’s politics has been dominated by Maratha strongmen since independence. From Shankar Rao Chavan to Sharad Pawar, and simultaneously Balasaheb Thackeray — the state's political fabric has been coloured by men deemed to be Maratha strongmen.

The BJP-led NDA had Shiv Sena as its partner till 2020. As this alliance broke after the 2019 state assembly polls, the BJP felt the need for its own strongman in the state.

As Shiv Sena split up, the Eknath Shinde faction joined BJP-led NDA in June 2020, and the saffron party returned to power in Maharashtra. But its search for a Maratha strongman leader continued.

With Raj Thackeray in BJP-led NDA, the saffron party has a Maratha strongman under its tent. As the state’s 48 Lok Sabha seats go to the polls in coming weeks, Raj Thackeray’s presence in the NDA is expected to boost the ruling alliance’s electoral fortunes.

The political flux has given a new turn to the game of thrones on the land of Marathas.

GoT Prequel Shelved: Seven Leadership Lessons From Jon Snow

The prequel of Game of Thrones pitched to HBO by Kit Harrington has been shelved. But Jon Snow's life in the world of Westeros is full of leadership lessons that can't be ignored. The next slides have spoilers. You have been warned.

Remember Fire and Blood (S01E10), when Jon leaves Castle Black to avenge Ned Stark's beheading? He returns to the Night's Watch despite anguish for the Lannisters. Honour sent him away from Castle Black. Honour brings him back to his duty as the brother of the Night's Watch.


A Leader Worth His Salt Keeps His Word, No Matter What


Let's go to the 'Dragon and the Wolf' episode. Jon could have won Cersei's support in front of all the leaders of Westeros by simply saying he was no longer pledged to Daenerys' cause to win the Iron Throne. But, he did not. He kept his pledge to Daenerys. The Long Night passed. Humans prevailed over the dead.


Great Leaders Make Tough Choices For The Good of Realm


Our Jon loved Daenerys. Although she was his aunt (father's sister), extended incest is quite a feature of the Game of Thrones. Still, when push came to shove, he made a choice. He killed Daenerys to prevent the destruction of Westeros for the world Dany wanted to make. There came democracy in Westeros after all.


Struggle Precedes Greatness of Great Leaders


What was Jon without the struggle that came as he became the brother of the Night's Watch? Ned Stark's illegitimate son, or so he thought? As he slowly realised his identity as Aegon Targaryen, came the depth in his leadership. All because he never chose the easy way out.


What was Jon without Samwell Tarly? Without the knowledge of dragonglass, Jon would never have met Dany on Dragonstone. Dead would have prevailed. And well, that would have been the end of Game of Thrones.


Battles Can Be Won Against Greatest Odds


If not for Jon's courage (and Sansa's insistence), there would have been no battle of the bastards. They won despite being outnumbered. They followed the template of the Battle of the Bastards in the Long Night. They prevailed.

Jon's character arc had the defining attribute of what maestor Aemon Targaryen said at Castle Black. 'Love is the death of duty, duty is the death of love.'
Jon's love, whether for Yigrette or Daenerys, joepardised his duty for Night's Watch and for Winterfell. When he gave up on love, duty won for the good of humankind.

Jon Snow's life in the world of Westeros is full of leadership lessons that can't be ignored.

Lyrid Meteor Shower 2024: All You Need to Know

Lyrid meteor shower is expected to peak in April. It is one of the oldest known meteor showers, as per NASA. The Lyrids have been observed for 2700 years and were first spotted back in 687 BC by the Chinese.

The Lyrids, one of the fastest and brightest meteors, are expected to reach their peak around April 22-23. In a dark sky with no moon, you might see 10 to 15 Lyrids per hour. The meteor shower will be visible from April 15-29.

As we already know, meteors come from leftover comet particles and bits from broken asteroids. Lyrids are also the space debris from Comet C/1861 G1 Thatcher, which was discovered on 5 April 1861 by AE Thatcher.

The Lyrids are best viewed in the Northern Hemisphere during the dark hours (after moonset and before dawn). Find an area well away from city lights or street lights. Lie flat on your back with your feet facing east and look up.

You don't need any special equipment or a lot of skills to view a meteor shower. Find a secluded viewing spot, away from the city lights. Once at the venue, your eyes may take 15 to 20 minutes to get used to the dark.

After the most-awaited astronomical event of the year, the total solar eclipse, brace yourselves for yet another major celestial treat- the Lyrids.

Why Voyager 1 Talked Gibberish from Far Away in Space?

Scientists finally found out what's happening to NASA's pioneering Voyager 1 spacecraft, which was launched in 1977 to study the outer Solar System, the interstellar space beyond the Sun's heliosphere. It is the most distant spacecraft to Earth. 

It talked gibberish on the interplanetary "radio". 


The spacecraft receives and executes commands sent from Earth. However, the flight data system (FDS) was not communicating properly with one telecommunications unit. 

Hence, data was reaching Earth, but it was disrupted in the form of ones and zeros. 

Finally, the spacecraft revealed the issue when it was asked about it in March in the form of a poke command. 

Scientists have found out that three per cent of its memory is corrupted.

Eye creams should be used in the night while eye gels can be used any time in the day.

Both eye gels and creams can be used before makeup.

6 Essential Care Tips for Your Cactus at Home 

Cactus prefer well-draining soil and should be watered sparingly. Allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings to prevent root rot.

Place your cactus in a bright, sunny spot where it can receive at least 6 hours of sunlight per day. Rotate the plant occasionally to ensure even growth. 

Use a well-draining cactus mix or add perlite to regular potting soil to improve drainage. Avoid heavy, water-retentive soils that can cause root rot.

Cacti have low nutritional requirements and a diluted, balanced fertiliser should be used sparingly during the growing season.

Choose a pot with drainage holes to prevent water accumulation at the roots. Repot your cactus every 2-3 years to refresh the soil and provide room for growth.

Handle your cactus with care to avoid injury from the spines. Use thick gloves or tongs when transplanting or pruning to protect your hands.
