J&K athletes deserve world-class facilities to compete globally: CM Omar

Srinagar, Aug 10 : Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah on Monday said athletes cannot be expected to win medals at national and international events without proper sporting infrastructure, stressing the need to provide them with quality facilities, training and financial support. Addressing an event here, Omar Abdullah according to the news agencyKashmir News Observer (KNO), said Jammu and Kashmir still lags behind in sporting infrastructure and needs to improve considerably. The right fruits of hard work will come when you get the right facilities. We are quite behind in this regard and need to improve going forward, he said. Omar highlighted the shortage of synthetic tracks in J&K, saying athletes were being asked to compete against sportspersons who train throughout the year with better facilities. I can count the synthetic tracks on fingers. I can see only four. When we cannot provide our athletes with synthetic tracks, what medals can we expect from them? he asked. Your competition is with those who are practising for 12 months of the year, he added. He also said Jammu and Kashmir must make greater use of its high-altitude areas to promote quality sports and training while maintaining a balance between established and emerging disciplines. Referring to the overwhelming focus on cricket, CM Omar said other sporting disciplines also need greater attention and investment. Unfortunately, when we talk about sports, perhaps more than 80 percent of the attention goes towards cricket. Most of the money is also in cricket, followed by football and then other sports, he said. He said if India wants to succeed in international competitions, athletes must be encouraged across different sporting disciplines. If we really want to achieve something in competitions like the Commonwealth Games and other international events, we have to participate in different kinds of sports, Omar said. He also linked sports promotion with the fight against drug abuse. Staying away from drugs cannot be a slogan for just one day in the year. It has to be for 12 months in a year, and that will happen only when we provide infrastructure for sports, he said. He said the government would do whatever possible to promote sports in Jammu and Kashmir(KNO)

Ravi Kishan reacts to meme fame; says, Shah Rukh Khan and Michael Jackson dance inside me

Actor and politician Ravi Kishan has recently become a fixture of internet meme culture, with old clips of his interviews and public appearances resurfacing and going viral all over again. Reacting to the trend, Kishan said the exuberance people find funny online is simply an extension of who he is. An unlikely meme favourite From his old remark about money following his brother to his spirited rendition of Koteshwaray Shiv Koteshwaray, several of Kishans past moments have been resurrected by social media users and turned into memes. What started as a handful of viral clips soon snowballed into a wider trend, with fans digging up more of his interviews and performances. The actor-politician, however, seems to be embracing the attention rather than shying away from it. Speaking to News18 about his sudden meme fame, Kishan said, I enjoy this because this is me! Icons who dance inside him Kishan went on to credit a wide range of cultural icons for shaping his flamboyant style, saying, Im from Al Pacino to Amitabh Bachchan to Balraj Sahni to Shah Rukh Khan to Michael Jackson to Elvis Presley Itni saare log mere sharir mein naachte, gaate rehte hain. Toh main itni fusions deta rehta hoon ki yeh desh aisa deewana hee rahega. Im the same guy jisne 20 saal pehle bola tha, Zindagi jhandwa, phir bhi ghamandwa. Nothing is planned, says the actor Kishan insisted that none of his viral moments are staged or rehearsed for effect. Im not trying anything. Im not reading anything. Im not doing extra theatrical or anything, or planning ki iss tarah bolunga. Its just the moment I come, and something happens to my body, and words nikalte hai. Aur kuchh bhi hota hai, whether Parliament mein bhaag raha hoon ya kuchh bhi hai, it goes viral, he said. He also reflected on why audiences seem to be responding warmly to nearly everything he does these days. Bolte hai na jab samay aata hai, aapki har andaaz logon ko achhi lagne lagti hai. So, its just the time, blessing shower of God, humare purwajon ka, everyone from the family, people praying. I believe in that, he said. Kishan was last seen in director Indra Kumars Dhamaal 4, which also starred Ajay Devgn, Arshad Warsi and Riteish Deshmukh in lead roles. For now, the actor-politician appears content to let the internet enjoy itself, insisting that he is simply being who he has always been. Also Read: Believe it or not!

Pankaj Tripathi says Mirzapur was a leave me alone watch on OTT: Its now in party mode

Pankaj Tripathi has opened up about the transition of Mirzapur from a popular streaming series to a theatrical film, saying the biggest change will be the way audiences experience the story. Mirzapur: The Film is scheduled to release in cinemas on September 4, 2026, bringing several familiar characters back to the big screen. Ahead of the films trailer launch, Tripathi, who plays the iconic character Kaleen Bhaiya, spoke about how the theatrical format will offer something different from the shows OTT experience. The new thing about the film and you actually touched upon this in your question is the scale. On OTT, you watch on screens ranging from 5 to 100 inches, but now youll be watching on a 25-to-28-foot screen. So, the major shift is that you get to see it on the big screen and experience it communally. Until now, watching on OTT was a solitary, private affair; now, youll be watching it with an audience, he said. Tripathi believes watching Mirzapur collectively in theatres will alter the impact of the franchise. Whenever a performance or art form is experienced communally, the impact changes entirely. Enjoying it in a group creates a unique, shared experience. So, while Mirzapur used to be a leave me alone kind of watch, its now in party mode. The world is the same, the characters are the same, but the story is new, and the experience is much grander, he added. The actor also revealed that he recently worked on the films dubbing and was impressed by what he saw. I was doing some dubbing work yesterday and really enjoyed what I saw. I even wondered, Is it just because Im part of the film that Im enjoying it so much? he said, adding that his excitement increased after seeing the footage. Directed by Gurmeet Singh and written by Puneet Krishna, Mirzapur: The Movie is produced by Ritesh Sidhwani and Farhan Akhtar under Excel Entertainment. The film stars Tripathi, Ali Fazal and Divyenndu, among others, and will release in Hindi and Telugu.
