This show is known for its humor, but now it has come into controversy due to a part shown in the recent episode. The show is facing criticism for promoting a “forced love angle” between Samarth Jurel and Jannat Zubair. A video from the EID special episode of Laughter Chefs Season 3 has gone viral, in which Samarth is seen teasing or looking at Jannat’s feet and she is clearly looking uncomfortable.The video has received severe criticism from fans of Jannat Zubair and viewers of Laughter Chefs.A user posted the video with the caption, “This is the result of the creatives of Laughter Chefs promoting a forced love-angle script given to overactors like Samarth, who then indulge in such disrespectful, disgusting behavior in the name of flirting, where Jannat is clearly feeling very uncomfortable.”Another user commented, “Samarth needs to stop his rude behavior with his female co-stars… It is clearly visible that Jannat is feeling uncomfortable with him but his immature fans are still defending him instead of criticizing him.” Others criticized the show itself for promoting it, calling it a “shameful act”.One user wrote, “Samarth should be stopped from behaving disgustingly with his female co-stars… It is clearly visible that Jannat is feeling uncomfortable with him, but his immature fans are still defending him instead of criticizing him. @HotstarReality please look into this matter.”A fan commented, “Her mother was there… yet this pervert dared to behave like this. Imagine how women feel in such a hostile environment. In the name of entertainment and comedy, #ColorsTV is allowing such dirty behaviour.”One user further commented, “His mother was there… yet this pervert dared to behave like this. Imagine how women feel in such a hostile environment. In the name of entertainment and comedy, #ColorsTV is allowing such dirty behaviour.” Another said, “@AlyGoni @kkundrra this pervert won’t stop his nuisance so please tell him to back off. Until someone stops him he will continue this nasty behavior again and again.“For the unaware, Jannat Zubair and Samarth Jurrell share playful chemistry on Laughter Chefs 3. Despite all the flirting shown on Laughter Chefs 3, the two are reportedly not dating and are, in fact, just good friends.

Former Google executive Matt Brittin is set to become the next director general of the BBC, according to multiple media reports, including The Times, which says the broadcaster’s board has approved his appointment. However, there has been no official confirmation from the BBC yet.If confirmed, Brittin will replace Tim Davey, who is due to step down in early April, with an interim arrangement expected before Brittin formally takes over. His selection highlights a notable change for the BBC, bringing in a leader from a technology and digital background rather than traditional broadcasting.

A technology leader who has worked at Google for nearly two decades

Matt Brittin, 57, spent nearly 20 years at Google, joining the company in 2007 and rising through the ranks to become president of Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA) in 2014. In that role, he oversaw one of the company’s largest regional operations and played a key role during a period of increased regulatory scrutiny and rapid digital transformation.He resigned from Google at the end of 2024, describing the time thereafter as a “mini gap year”.Before Google, Brittin worked as a consultant at McKinsey & Company and held senior roles at Trinity Mirror, one of the UK’s largest newspaper publishers.

Education and personal life

Born in Walton-on-Thames, Surrey, Brittin was educated at Hampton School before studying land economics and geography at the University of Cambridge. He later obtained an MBA with Distinction from the London Business School.He was the first person in his family to go to university. Brittin married Kathryn Bates in 1995, and the couple have two sons. Known as a fan of classic British television and science fiction, he has previously cited shows such as Doctor Who as one of his favourites.

what does he say about himself

On his LinkedIn profile, Brittin describes himself as “tall, energetic, British” and humorously adds that he is “above average at the game of sitting.” He has also described himself as a “gap year student” and a “part-time athlete”.He has expressed interest in “tech for good”, particularly in the use of artificial intelligence for positive impact.After leaving Google, he said he planned to spend time reading, learning new skills, and even trying activities like scuba diving.

Sports background: Olympians and sailors

Brittin has a strong sporting background in rowing. He represented Great Britain at the 1988 Seoul Olympics and won a bronze medal at the World Rowing Championships. He also participated three times in the Historic Boat Race for Cambridge University.

Board roles and honors

In addition to his corporate career, Brittin has held a number of board and advisory roles, including The Climate Group, Media Trust and a non-executive directorship at Sainsbury’s. He is also associated with Guardian Media Group.In recognition of his contributions to technology and digital skills, he was awarded a CBE in the UK New Year Honours.

A different kind of BBC leader

If his appointment is confirmed, Brittin will be one of the few BBC directors general to come from outside the traditional media and editorial ranks. His digital and platform experience is considered particularly relevant as the BBC faces increasing competition from global streaming services and tech-driven platforms.His leadership will also come at a crucial time, amid debate over the BBC’s funding model, its future charter and its role in a rapidly evolving media landscape.

New Delhi: Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi made a scathing attack on the Prime Minister on Monday Narendra ModiCriticizing his recent speech on the West Asia conflict, he claimed that he had “compromised” and could not participate in parliamentary debates.Speaking at the Tribal Rights Constitution Conference in Vadodara, Rahul Gandhi alleged that the Prime Minister avoided naming the United States in his Lok Sabha address and said he was “100% under the control” of US President Donald Trump.The Prime Minister said, “I heard that the Prime Minister gave a 25-minute speech. But I guarantee that he cannot participate in the debate in Parliament because he has compromised. Narendra Modi spoke for 25 minutes but did not say a single word against America. Narendra Modi is 100% under Trump’s control.”Rahul Gandhi also criticized the government’s trade approach and claimed that it would harm Indian farmers.Rahul Gandhi said, “Narendra Modi has opened India’s agricultural sector to America through trade agreements. Here we have small farms, whereas in America there are big farms spread over thousands of acres. Here people work by hand and there the work is done with big machines. If American goods start coming to India, our farmers will be ruined.”He further accused the BJP and RSS of undermining tribal rights and alleged that the term “vanvasi” was being used to dilute the identity of the tribals.“Adivasi means the original inhabitants of India – the real owners of this land, water and forests (‘Jal-Jungle-Zameen’). But the RSS-BJP have introduced a new term – ‘Vanvasi’, which means you only live in the forests, and not that you are the real owners of these resources. Narendra Modi and BJP leaders join hands in front of Birsa Munda’s statue, but they attack the ideas for which Birsa Munda fought and martyred. When BJP snatches land, water and forests from tribals, it is not just an attack on Birsa Munda, but also an attack on the Constitution.”The comments come after Prime Minister Modi addressed the Lok Sabha on the ongoing conflict in West Asia, describing the situation as “worrying” and outlining its economic, security and humanitarian implications for India.Congress leaders also criticized the Prime Minister’s speech. Party leader Pawan Khera questioned the intention behind the address, saying, “…perhaps this speech was given keeping in mind the upcoming elections… The first question is why did you go to Israel?”..”Congress MP Jairam Ramesh also attacked the Prime Minister, accusing him of failing to condemn the US and Israeli attacks on Iran and calling his speech a “master class in self-praise and partisan rhetoric”.“The Prime Minister’s uncharacteristically brief speech in the Lok Sabha today was, as usual, a master class in self-arrogance, cowardice and partisan samad-baazi (theatrical dialogue). Not a single word was said in condemnation of the ongoing US-Israeli air strikes on Iran. Iran’s attack on the Gulf states and the Strait of Hormuz is, of course, completely unacceptable – but so is the continued bombing of Iran with the aim of regime change and state collapse,” Ramesh wrote on X.Responding to Modi’s reference to the COVID-19 pandemic, Ramesh said, “Finally, the Prime Minister’s invocation of the COVID-19 pandemic is worrying. His government’s response was uniquely disastrous. The country cannot forget the extremely depressing scenes that had become all too common then – millions of migrants walking barefoot towards their homes, thousands dying from lack of oxygen, and millions left jobless. We can only hope that there will be more preparation this time.“In his address, the Prime Minister said the conflict has posed “unprecedented challenges” for India, particularly given its dependence on the region for crude oil and gas and its importance to global trade routes.“This war has also created unprecedented challenges for India. These challenges are economic, national security and humanitarian as well.” India has extensive trade relations with war-fighting and war-affected countries. The area where this war is taking place is also an important route for our trade with other countries of the world. In particular, a large part of our crude oil and gas needs are met from this region,” he said.He said the government has given priority to domestic LPG consumers amid supply uncertainties and is working to ensure uninterrupted availability of petrol and diesel, noting that India holds strategic petroleum reserves of over 5.3 million metric tonnes.The Prime Minister’s statement comes amid rising tensions in West Asia following the assassination of Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei in joint US-Israel strikes on February 28, following which Iran retaliated and disrupted key sea lanes including the Strait of Hormuz.

प्रधानमंत्री मोदी ने उत्तराखंड की सांस्कृतिक और आध्यात्मिक विरासत का जिक्र करते हुए कहा कि देवभूमि सदियों से आस्था, आध्यात्मिकता, साहस और समृद्ध परंपराओं की भूमि रही है। यहां की विविध भाषाएं, बोलियां, लोक परंपराएं और सरल जीवनशैली राज्य को एक विशिष्ट पहचान देती हैं। जब से केंद्र में हमारी सरकार बनी है, विकसित भारत के संकल्प के अनुरूप उत्तराखंड लगातार नई ऊंचाइयों को छू रहा है। ऑल वेदर रोड परियोजना के तहत चारधाम यात्रा को सुरक्षित एवं सुगम बनाने का कार्य तेजी से चल रहा है, वहीं ऋषिकेश-कर्णप्रयाग रेलवे लाइन के माध्यम से राज्य में रेल कनेक्टिविटी को मजबूत किया जा रहा है।

उत्तराखंड: सीएम धामी का साफ संदेश, मदरसों को जिहादी मानसिकता पैदा करने वाले अलगाववाद का केंद्र नहीं बनने दिया जाएगा.

प्रधानमंत्री ने राज्य के सीमावर्ती इलाकों में कनेक्टिविटी बढ़ाने और शीतकालीन पर्यटन को बढ़ावा देने के प्रयासों की भी सराहना की. उन्होंने कहा कि इन पहलों से न केवल पर्यटन को बढ़ावा मिला है बल्कि पलायन रोकने और स्थानीय अर्थव्यवस्था को मजबूत करने में भी मदद मिली है। प्रधानमंत्री ने अपने संदेश में स्थानीय उत्पादों को बढ़ावा देने, महिला सशक्तिकरण, युवाओं के लिए रोजगार सृजन, स्टार्टअप को बढ़ावा देने और डिजिटल एवं हरित विकास जैसे राज्य सरकार के प्रयासों की सराहना की. साथ ही आपदा प्रबंधन की मजबूत व्यवस्था और सतत विकास के प्रति प्रतिबद्धता को राज्य की प्रगति के लिए अहम बताया.

प्रधानमंत्री ने विश्वास जताया कि अमृत काल में विकसित भारत के निर्माण में उत्तराखंड की भूमिका और मजबूत होगी। आत्मनिर्भर, समृद्ध और सशक्त उत्तराखंड के निर्माण में राज्य के प्रत्येक नागरिक की भागीदारी महत्वपूर्ण है। उन्होंने आशा व्यक्त की कि आने वाले वर्षों में उत्तराखंड विभिन्न क्षेत्रों में नई उपलब्धियां हासिल करेगा।

A 27-year-old man has been arrested and charged with murder after three people were found dead inside a camper in Robeson County, North Carolina, in a case authorities have described as a “senseless and tragic” triple murder.Deputies responded to a property on Melinda Road near Pembroke early Sunday morning after a report of two bodies inside a camper.

He is currently being held without bond in a detention facility.Sheriff Bernice Wilkins said investigators believe illegal narcotics may have played a role in the killings, calling the case part of a disturbing pattern of drug-related violence in the area.“The devastation caused by illegal drugs is impacting families and communities in Robeson County,” he said, adding that officers are committed to combating such crimes.The investigation is continuing with the assistance of federal agencies including the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. Authorities have urged anyone with information to come forward as they continue to piece together the circumstances surrounding the murders.
