Australia provokes China anger over scrapped deals HiIndia Newsdesk The UN has called for the United Arab Emirates to provide “concrete” proof that Princess Latifa Al Maktoum, the daughter of Dubai’s ruler reportedly being held in detention, is alive. In a statement issued in Geneva on Tuesday, UN human rights experts also said she should be released “urgently”. Princess Latifa tried to flee Dubai in 2018. In footage shared with BBC Panorama, she says commandos drugged her and flew her back to detention. The UN says it needs more information. Dubai’s royal family has previously said Princess Latifa is safe and being “cared for at home”. On 5 March, the UN said it was still awaiting further details from the UAE - two weeks after an initial request for proof of life. In Tuesday’s statement, the UN experts called on the government of the UAE once again to “provide meaningful information” on Princess Latifa’s fate “without delay”.

V. Subramanian said on Friday. “There is a second wave therefore people should be careful about it and follow all regulations,” he said, speaking at an event organised by Amazon. “But overall compared to previous episode, we are in a better shape because vaccine is out and vaccination drive is proceeding. So uncertainty is much lower,” the CEA added. Following the outbreak of the pandemic in 2020, India went in for one of the strictest lockdowns, leading to a massive contraction of about 24% in GDP. Beginning March this year, the second wave started rearing its head with a sudden jump in cases, forcing many States to go for localised restrictions.

This knowledge led Chanda and his collaborators to search for the human genes that are triggered by interferons, known as interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs), which act to limit SARS-CoV-2 infection. “We found that 65 ISGs controlled SARS-CoV-2 infection, including some that inhibited the virus’ ability to enter cells, some that suppressed manufacture of the RNA that is the virus’s lifeblood, and a cluster of genes that inhibited assembly of the virus,” Chanda explained.

Amid intense pain, they’re channeling their grief into demands for gun reform and tougher hate crime statutes, and calls for outsiders to educate themselves about their Sikh neighbours. “ We a r e t i m e a n d t i m e a g a i n disproportionately facing senseless and often very targeted attacks,” said Satjeet Kaur, executive director of the Sikh Coalition, a New York-based group that has urged investigators to examine bias as a possible motive in the shootings.

A huge screen can’t be erase something screened on your

Boman Irani

Theatrical release of a lot of films, including big-ticket ones, have been pos amid the ongoing second wave of the Covid pandemic. While this spells lo Bollywood, Irani sees a silver lining.

The universe conspired to bring us together “We’d been friends for a very long time. Aishwarya is one of the first co-stars that I ever worked with. Our first movie together was called Dhai Akshar Prem Ke… She has been a dear, dear friend and we have worked in so many films together — so, it was a bit of both I think. I think, the universe conspired to bring us together…” “She is still very young. She is busy with her online classes these days… This department is Aishwarya’s — I have realised I am not very good at that. She made Aaradhya aware of the family that she came from… She knows that her dada and dadi and mom and dad are actors, that we are privileged we enjoy the love and respect of so many millions of people, and that you have to learn to respect that and appreciate and thank God for it. “Apart from that, she is, you know, fine — very normal about these things. She sees our films and she enjoys them. She takes the [paparazzi] in her stride. Her mother has trained her nicely…”

ood writing is the need of the hour, feels actor Boman Irani, to sustain audience interest at a time when OTT provides a surfeit of choice. “The OTT platform gives an opportunity not only for writers but also actors and technicians. However, on OTT, there are thousands of choices. It takes 10 to 15 minutes to reject if you cannot engage the audience in their home. This can be avoided with good writing, which also applies to the rest of the show. Writing has become the superstar on the OTT platform,” Irani tells IANS. “If your script is not good, your acting won’t come off well, and I say this even for theatrical releases. Why should you have weaker scripts just because it is in the theatrical space?” he adds. The theatrical release of a lot of films, including big-ticket ones, have been postponed amid the ongoing second wave of the Covid pandemic. While this spells losses for Bollywood, Irani sees a silver lining. “The pandemic has created a lot of problems. I am hopeful and saying this in a positive tone that once things open up, people will be dying to get back to the theatres and there will be a big surge of footfalls in theatres again,” he hopes. Quizzed if the OTT platforms will eventually replace the

big screen experience, replied: “When televisi footfalls reduced in screen cinemas and the there was a surge. I thi big screen is a comp different experience, t will be movies made the big screen. I do think it can be replace because it is a famil experience which people look forward to especially in India. A huge screen and great sound cannot be permanently erased by something which is screened on your phone.”

hen he was asked by an Instagram user “When will you share something about Irrfan sir?” Babil responded saying, “I loved sharing and then I get these Dms all the time saying that I’m using him to promote myself and that really hurts when in fact I was genuinely sharing memories to fill up the void that he left in his fans. So I’m so confused on what to do.” He said, “I’m trying to figure out but it really hurts when random people message me saying I’m using his memory to gain clout, like I needed to do that, I’m already his son, I never needed to do that to gain anything. Now I’m perplexed and a little hurt tbh (to be honest). So I’ll share when I feel like it’s the right time.”

Legacy would mark Khanna’s debut in the digital space. The Ittefaq actor said he was thrilled to come on board the series as it aims to provide quality entertainment to the audience.

Given the massive scale of the show, we are cognizant of the immense responsibility to deliver our best to create a content piece the audience looks forward to.

Vidya Balan gives relationship advice “What I have discovered in these eight years is that the work involved is the effort not to take the other person for granted.” the actor said Vidya Balan is one of the actors who is quite headstrong in her approach to her professional life as well as her personal decisions. The Kahaani 2 actor is always known to speak her mind. This time, too, she opened up about marriage, and how to keep the spark alive in the relationship. Balan, who is married to film producer Siddharth Roy Kapur for over eight years now, said it is important that both partners “don’t take each other for granted”.

“Marriage involves a lot of work, I agree because you are living with a person you haven’t grown up with. It is so easy for you to take the other person for granted, and that is a terrible thing to happen. And that is when the spark goes away in marriage,” she was quoted, On her married life, Balan added: “What I have discovered in these eight years is that the work involved is the effort not to take the other person for granted, and therefore it’s been joyous. If you slip up there, it’s not as exciting, just becomes mundane. I love the work that is required to be put in to keep the marriage strong and exciting.” Balan and Kapur, who got married in 2012, met at a Filmfare awards ceremony.

Start your skincare routine with cleansing

“Cleansing is the most integral part of your skincare routine. The first step in your skincare routine should be to carefully clean your face to remove any makeup, dirt, or excess oil. Opt for a pH-neutral, soap-free face purifier that removes contamination without stripping your skin of its natural oil,” says Mathur. To select the right face cleanser for yourself,

Weekly exfoliation is a must

The skin deals with a lot of external stressors and that is why exfoliating it once a week is a must. “This helps in deep cleansing the skin and removing dirt and dead skin cells. For both oily and dry skin, it is recommended to use a mild scrub,” he suggests.

Moisturise and hydrate your skin

These two are different concepts; a good moisturiser helps in locking in the natural moisture of the skin and also keeps the cells hydrated. While hydration maintains the water levels in your skin.

Vitamins essential for healthy skin

They play an important role in keeping your skin healthy — the use of vitamin C helps fight radical damage and works as a great anti-ageing agent for the skin.

Sunscreen for protection

Whether you step out or not, sunscreen is a must. “Lather your skin with sunscreen so that it can act as a barrier and protect the skin. Don’t forget to apply it to the back of your neck and your arms as they are also susceptible to the sun,” he tells

Hyderabad lads figure in Forbes 30 under 30 list The company, Makers Hive Innovations is into making bionic arms. HiIndia Newsdesk

Police personnel set up barricades, reminding days of lockdown

HiIndia Newsdesk Hyderabad: As night fell in Hyderabad on Tuesday, there was more than the usual hurry to reach home. Though the streets did not turn deserted exactly in view of the night curfew beginning at 9 pm, there was a drastic fall in the number of vehicles on the road. Business in most shops began winding up from 8 pm. Reminding one of the lockdown days, there were police personnel everywhere, from those at outposts, barricades and roaming around on mobile patrols, most of them politely asking the public to go home. Those on the streets said they were mostly from the services exempted from the curfew, ranging from security personnel, delivery boys and some working at fuel pumps and medical shops. Most commercial establishments had pulled shutters down by 8 pm, with some pushing the deadline a little bit in some areas.

Hyderabad: City-based Pranav Vempati, Chief Executive Officer, Makers Hive Innovations, figured in the Forbes 30 Under 30 Asia list. His company is into making bionic arms. It has been on it for more than three years and it was launched last December. It already has an order book for several tens of bionic arms, which the company aims to deliver in the months to come. “The listing in Forbes is a recognition of the teamwork happening in the realm of bionic arms. Our arms are priced low compared to similar ones being made available overseas,” said Pranav. The company has two more co-founders- Harsha and Suren. It is now facing a shortage of a few components due to the Covid. “We are hoping that situation will ease in a couple of months and then we will be able to deliver on the pending orders,” he said adding that it is also looking to tap various companies for their CSR funds in making the bionic arms available to more people at a lesser cost.

Hyderabad police nab seven Telangana CM K for illegal procurement and Chandrasekhar Rao tests positive for Covid-19 sale of Remdesivir drug

The price of each arm is around Rs 3.5 lakh. “There are a lot of people who have lost their arms. Due to that, they are being rendered jobless. There is a huge social cost associated with that. Now, we are also looking to partner with some corporates and explore the possibilities of finding jobs for people with bionic or artificial arms,” he said. The artificial arm can exhibit more than 15 grips with different torque levels that will help people deal with their daily chores. The arm tracks electrical impulses released in the body while attempting to work with hands. As per the 2011 census, there are 5.4 million people who are movement-impaired. Of this, a significant number of people had suffered accidents below the elbow. Based on the severity of amputation, a 3D scan of the hand is taken to come up with a customized design. There will be a provision to replace worn-out mechanical parts. It has plans to partner with hospitals, NGOs, and government bodies apart from direct sales.

Roger Federer confirmed on Sunday he will play the French Open at Roland Garros this year having skipped the 2020 edition to recover from knee surgery. Federer, a 20time Grand Slam winner, captured Roland Garros for the only time in 2009.

I don’t want anyone to say I’m unfit: Dhoni HiIndia Newsdesk

I wasn’t guaranteeing performances when I was 24. I can’t guarantee when I am 40, but at least if people can’t point finger at me that he’s unfit then that will be a big positive for me.”

“Ho Kahin Bhi Aag” Man’s Initiative To Teach Children In Delhi Slum Earns Praise

Indian Forest Service officer Susanta Nanda borrowed the words of renowned Hindi poet Dushyant Kumar to praise a teacher who has been taking classes for children in a Delhi slum.

Are You Brave Enough To Sit In A Tub Of Snakes For $10,000?

Popular YouTuber MrBeast is back with another crazy video - and this time, he had cash rewards up for grabs. MrBeast - real name Jimmy Donaldson - challenged friends and colleagues to compete in a series of increasingly bizarre stunts to win prize money. The challenges involved sitting in a bathtub full of snakes, letting a tarantula crawl on you for 30 seconds and grabbing banknotes from a container with giant cockroaches, among other things. In the YouTube video posted this Sunday, Mr Donaldson, 22, gave away tens of thousands of dollars to people who managed to win the challenges he set up. For his first challenge, he told three friends that he would give $10,000 (approximately ₹ 7.5 lakh) to their mothers if they agreed to sit in a tub full of snakes.

The quote, taken from a motivational poem by Dushyant Kumar, roughly translates to, “It doesn’t matter where it burns, but keep this fire burning.”

They can also be used to sonically map out the ocean floor thanks to the fact that the sound can reach depths of 2.5 kilometers (1.6 miles) under the water, which bounces back and provides researchers with accurate measurements. Beyond that, a 2021 study in Science showed how using a fin whale’s song can be far more useful and have less of a negative impact on sea life than using a large air gun, which is the typical tool researchers rely on.

“Life is a balance of holding on and letting go. Inversions. Samantha Ruth Prabhu gives all of us the fitness inspiration we need. The South actress has been motivating fans with her exercise routines. The 33-year-old who switched to a plant-based diet not long ago is committed to breaking the myth around not being able to build lean muscle on such a diet. On Wednesday, she stunned her fans and followers by acing a difficult yoga posture.

The world’s quietest room is located at Microsoft’s headquarters in Washington state

Silence is golden, as they say. And while it may not be worth quite as much as jewels and gold to most people, it certainly was the primary goal for those who built the quietest room in the world. Located at Microsoft’s headquarters in Redmond, Washington, the lab room measures a background noise of -20.35 dBA, which is 20 decibels below the threshold of human hearing and breaks previous records for spaces that were deemed the planet’s quietest places, according to CNN. “As soon as one enters the room, one immediately feels a strange and unique sensation which is hard to describe,” Hundraj Gopal, a speech and hearing scientist and principal designer of the anechoic chamber at Microsoft, told CNN. “Most people find the absence of sound deafening, feel a sense of fullness in the ears, or some ringing. Very faint sounds become clearly audible because the ambient noise is exceptionally low. When you turn your head, you can hear that motion. You can hear yourself breathing and it sounds somewhat loud.”
