Irfan Pathan Savage Reply To Pakistan PM Tweet Mocking India’s Exit From T20 WC
On Thursday, India faced a saddening yet a very crushing defeat against England in the semi-final of the ICC T20 World Cup 2022. The men in blue lost by 10 wickets while 24 balls were still remaining. This made England reach the finals meanwhile India had to give up on its WorldCup 2022 dream.
India’s exit from the World Cup gave Pakistan PM Shehbaz Sharif a chance to take a cheeky jibe. Pakistan’s PM made a tweet in order to mock the Indian team.
Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif took a cheeky jibe at team India
Moments after India’s heartbreaking semi-final loss against England in T20 World Cup 2022 Pakistan PM made a tweet. In order to humiliate and mock the Rohit Sharma-led men in blue Shehbaz tweeted as we quote,
“So, this Sunday, it’s: 152/0 vs 170/0 #T20WorldCup.”
So, this Sunday, it’s:
152/0 vs 170/0
🇵🇰 🇬🇧 #T20WorldCup
— Shehbaz Sharif (@CMShehbaz) November 10, 2022
To give a clearer picture, the 152/0 signifies India’s 10-wicket defeat against Pakistan in last year’s T20 World Cup. On the other hand, 170/0 was the score via which England won against India on Thursday. This tweet widely went viral. So much so that Pakistan skipper Babar Azam was also asked about it, if the tweet by their PM puts added pressure on the team. To the question he replied,
“No I don’t think there’s any added pressure, basically, sorry to say I haven’t seen this tweet so far, and I have no knowledge of this, but there is no added pressure, we only try to give our best no matter the opposition.”
For such a controversial and cheeky tweet Pakistan PM received a lot of flak. Be it Indian fans or former Indian players all tried to give a mouth-shutting reply to Pakistan PM in their own way.
Former Indian player Irfan Pathan gave a befitting reply to Shehbaz Sharif’s tweet
On the eve of the England VS Pakistan finale clash, former Indian pacer Irfan Pathan took to Twitter and gave a befitting reply to Shehbaz Sharif’s cheeky tweet. Irfan replied saying,
“Aap mein or hum mein fark yehi hai. Hum apni khushi se khush or aap dusre ke taklif se. Is liye khud ke mulk ko behtar karne pe dhyan nahi hai. (This is the difference between us. We are happy with our happiness and you get happy with others’ loss. That is why you can’t focus on improving your own nation.)”
Aap mein or hum mein fark yehi hai. Hum apni khushi se khush or aap dusre ke taklif se. Is liye khud ke mulk ko behtar karne pe dhyan nahi hai.

Indian Cricket commentator Aakash Chopra also made a subtle reply to Shehbaz’s tweet saying,
“Growing old is mandatory. Growing Up is optional.”
On the flip side, Pakistan and England are all set to face one another for the finale of the ICC T20 World Cup 2022 at the Melbourne Cricket Ground. With the predictions of rainfall, it would be fun to see which team will actually grab its second T20 World Cup title tomorrow. All we’d like to say is that may the best-playing team win.

From Sleeping With Salman Khan To Being Blamed For Shekhar Kapur’s Divorce
Preity Zinta is among the most attractive, extraordinarily talented, well-educated, and successful performers in Hindi film history, ranking right up there with the best.
With roles in movies like Dil Chahta Hai, Veer Zaara, Koi Mil Gaya, and Kal Ho Naa Ho, the actress has won over many fans. She also dominated the big screen at a time when there were a lot of talented actresses in the business.
In addition to her acting profession, Zinta is a businesswoman and a joint owner of the Indian Premier League franchise Kings XI Punjab. She has actively supported several philanthropic causes and organizations, and she has won numerous honors for her work in social activism in Indian film.
Being recognized as one of Bollywood’s most gifted and adaptable actresses, Preity Zinta has had a major influence inside and outside the Indian entertainment industry. However, her personal life is not as good as always as it now seems.
She has now married Preity Zinta Gene Goodenough, shattering the hearts of countless people. The lovely couple are also the parents of twins. While her life seems so beautiful now, her past is full of controversies.
1. When a non-bailable warrant for Preity Zinta’s arrest was issued by a magistrate
With the release of the movie Ishkq in Paris in 2013, Preity Zinta took on the role of producer for the first time in her career. However, the movie’s box office performance was a complete failure.
However, things got worse when the movie’s dialogue writer, Abbas Tyrewala, launched a lawsuit against Preity Zinta after his payment checks for Rs. 18.9 lakh bounced. A non-bailable warrant was issued against the actress when she failed to appear in court shortly after the plaintiff filed his lawsuit.
2. When Preity Zinta became enraged because Tusshar Kapoor used her name for “cosmetic surgery” on Koffee With Karan
Tusshar Kapoor made an appearance on a 2011 episode of Koffee With Karan, Karan Johar’s celebrity chat show. The actor was asked to give the first name that comes to mind when he hears the phrase “cosmetic surgery” during the show’s rapid-fire portion. Tusshar made a mistake by using Preity Zinta’s name in his hasty response to the query, which got him into trouble.
Preity Zinta called and allegedly criticized the actor for using her name and guessing that she had undergone a cosmetic procedure even before the program was broadcast on television. Tusshar eventually amended his remarks and acknowledged in public during an interview that it was all in good fun, but Preity took it too seriously and was offended.
3. When Preity Zinta accused Ness Wadia of molesting her
Preity Zinta accused her ex-boyfriend, Ness Wadia, of molestation in 2014. The announcement shocked the whole country since there had been widespread rumors that the couple would shortly be married. However, after nearly four years, Preity finally consented to end the lawsuit when Ness made good on his vow to apologize.
4. When Preity Zinta was blamed for Shekhar Kapur’s divorce
In 1999, Shekhar Kapur, a well-regarded director, married Suchitra Krishnamoorthi. The couple welcomed a daughter named Kaveri Kapur into the world. But sadly, Shekhar Kapur’s reported romance with Preity Zinta led to the dissolution of their wedding in 2006.
For those who are unaware, Shekhar Kapur and Preity Zinta were very close friends. However, they were more than simply close friends, according to Suchitra Krishnamoorthi, Shekhar’s second wife. She also added that their relationship caused problems for her and Shekhar’s marriage. Preity refuted the claims, stating that Suchitra wasn’t mentally sound.
5. When Salman Khan supposedly acknowledged having a relationship with Preity Zinta while seeing Aishwarya Rai
Rumors of Preity Zinta and Salman Khan becoming romantically involved abounded while they were shooting Chori Chori Chupke Chupke. However, since everyone was aware of Salman’s committed relationship with Aishwarya Rai, the rumors didn’t garner much attention.
But in 2001, an audio recording that was an alleged chat between Aishwarya and Salman was leaked, in which Salman was purportedly heard confessing to having slept with Preity Zinta.
The whole film business was stunned by the audio tape. But since there was no proof or evidence, the problem was quickly resolved. But to everyone’s astonishment, it wasn’t until Aishwarya Rai and Salman Khan broke up in 2001 that rumors began to circulate that his closeness to Preity Zinta was the reason he split up with Aishwarya.
Despite suffering all these controversies, Preity Zinta is still living her life to the fullest!

Anand Mahindra Is Shocked To Know The Price Of Ambassador 50 Years Ago In 1972
Businessman Anand Mahindra is the head of the Mahindra Group, one of the biggest corporations in India. He is renowned for his active social media presence, where he offers his opinions and ideas on a variety of subjects, including business, technology, and social concerns.
Mahindra is famed for his insightful and hilarious tweets, which frequently go viral and get extensive media attention. With millions of followers on Twitter and other platforms, he is a well-known presence on social media.
Mahindra has established himself as a key figure in the discussion of entrepreneurship, innovation, and sustainable development because of his social media presence. His opinions frequently reflect his certain style of thinking.
However, the business tycoon has suddenly broken this trend by tweeting his shock at the costs of a 1972 Ambassador and a Fiat Car.
In his tweet, Anand Mahindra wrote,
“This has plunged me into some ‘Sunday reminiscing.’ I was in JJ college at that time. Used to go by bus, but my mother occasionally allowed me to drive her blue Fiat. Even I can hardly believe this is what it cost at that time!”
Anand Mahindra shared a newspaper clipping containing information about the Ambassador and Fiat price increases in 1972
Have a look at his tweet:

Anand Mahindra’s post generated a flood of responses on social media. While many users draw attention to the consequences of inflation, others draw attention to the introduction of new models, which caused the price of existing automobiles to fall.
The tweet demonstrates that at the time, following a price increase, a Fiat 1100-D was priced at Rs 15,946 and an Ambassador at Rs 16,946.
Have a look at some of the reactions
All I can see is how the value of the currency has depreciated over time.
In 15,000 today you just get two car tyres of a car.
But the same 15,000 if kept in gold would have fetched you a car even today.

Also an indicator of shameful governance under Socialism .
Supreme courts need , for intervention, is an indicator of the degenerate economic thinking , under which India was forced to struggle for decades . Without license raj domestic auto majors would have done even better— Dr. Sudhir Mehta (@sudhirmehtapune) January 29, 2023
Pertinent to note, middle-class monthly salary at that time was about Rs. 300 (40-50K now). So a car was priced 55 X monthly salary.
Today a decent car costs 8L, so it’s just 18Xmonthly salary. Effective price is nearly 1/3 now.
Used car at even 1.5-2L #EasyAffordability— India_tweets (@Indiatweets15) January 29, 2023
Assuming 8% as inflation after 50 years same car would cost around 8 lakhs. 1972 only very very few people can afford for the car but today a fresher with decent salary can get this car for his family through debt from banks at 9% interest. pic.twitter.com/WKELBDrSSK

For the uninitiated, both Ambassador and Fiat are well-known automobile brands in India and have a long history there. The Ambassador, which was frequently employed as a cab or official vehicle, was once the most well-liked car in India. Contrarily, Fiat has been around in India for more than a century and was among the first foreign automakers to set up shop there.
However, due to issues including outdated technology and design, a lack of brand investment, greater competition from newer, more contemporary cars, a limited number of models, subpar after-sales support, and increased rivalry from other automobile companies, both brands have seen a decline in popularity.
