Anushka Sharma's bikini pic leads to hilarious memes, fans involve Priyanka Chopra too, see pics
However, the stunning beach picture of the actor was soon turned into a meme by her fans who couldn't get over the colour combination of her bikini. While some combined her picture with her still from her last film Sui Dhaaga to explain the difference between a current girlfriend and an ex, some used the collage to differentiate between a person's stay-at-home look and his/her party avatar.

Some fans combined her picture with actor Priyanka Chopra's MET Gala dress which continues to remain one of the most popular memes in Bollywood. Many other memes showed her sitting in a cricket stadium with Virat looking out for her from the field. From comparing her picture to the popular VLC media player to calling her a road stoppage sign, the funny memes were enough to leave her fans in splits.

Music composer Khayyam dead: PM Narendra Modi, Amitabh Bachchan, Lata Mangeshkar lead country in paying tributes Anushka and Virat are frequently spotted together during their free time in West Indies. She had recently opened up taking out time for each other amid their busy schedules. She told Filmfare in an interview, 'Those are the moments you steal when you lead lives that are so demanding. For that, your priorities have to be set. I'm never going to be like, 'Oh please spend more time with me at the cost of your work'. No, please do your work. He's the same with me.

Ranchi to host 6km promotional on cycling
ccording to a 2014 survey by the Institute of Transportation and Development Policy (ITDP), use of shared autos (diesel and battery operated) in Ranchi was at 28 per cent, while operation of buses constitutes a meagre 5 per cent of the share of public transport.On an average, 800 people are using the app-based public bicycle sharing platform a day, said Shashi Ranjan, manager of Chartered Bike, the Ahmedabad-based firm that launched the initiative in Ranchi."Earlier, 1,500 people would use the bicycles a day. But due to the monsoon, usage has slipped to 800 per day. However, with more awareness people's interest will increase," he said, explaining the rational behind an event like Cyclothon. At the event, cyclists will display Hindi slogans like, "Azadi pradushan se, azadi traffic jam se, sankalp le cycle chalane ka, desh ko swachh evam pradyushan mukt banana ka (Freedom from pollution, freedom from traffic jams, take the pledge to opt for cycle and make the country clean and pollution free)."Ranjan said they were organising such an event for the first time. "So far, we have got confirmation from 15 cyclists. They will be provided with T-shirts and the banners. Since it is a promotional event, the rides will be free," he said.The Cyclothon, of 6km, will commence at 7am from Albert Ekka Square (on Main Road) and traverse through major intersections like Lalpur, Dangratoli, St Xavier's College square, Iqra Masjid and culminate at Big Bazaar (opposite Ranchi Club).The first phase of the app-based initiative was launched in March with 600 German-made cycles. As many as 60 docking stations were set up along two routes, namely, Kanke Road-Chandni Chowk-Suchana Bhawan-Main Road and Kokar-Lalpur-Circular Road-Kutchery Chowk-Morabadi. Chartered Bike is ready to launch the second phase with 600 more bicycles and is currently carrying out a survey to set up more docking stations."The second phase will have cycles on routes between Karamtoli Chowk to Kokar via Booty More, Ratu Road to Project Bhawan via Shahjanand Chowk, Argora Chowk and Birsa Chowk, Birsa Chowk to Main Road and Shahjanand Chowk to Main Road via Kadru. We are ready with the bicycles and will soon start construction of docking stations after completing the survey," said a company official. Ranjan referred to the initial hiccups they faced when people began parked their motorbikes at docking stations, thereby defeating the very purpose of the cycle-sharing initiative."Ranchi Municipal Corporation (RMC) had deputed guards to ensure that people do not park their bikes at our docking stations. But we would like more stringent measures to prevent illegal parking at our docking stations," Ranjan noted.The Chartered Bike app is available on both Android and iOS platforms. There is a subscription fee, Rs 35.40 a day, Rs 236 a month and Rs 1,180 a year. There is a nominal user charge of Rs 5, but the first 30 minutes are free. Those who do not have access to smartphones can buy tickets and use the cycles.

Pakistan govt to hold meeting to chalk out future course of action on Kashmir
This came after the UNSC held a closed-door consultation on Kashmir. The meeting was called by China on the behest of Pakistan. However, the China-Pakistan axis failed tonight at UNSC closed-door meeting when a majority of the Council members refused to take up the Kashmir matter and rejected the Chinese position. China and Pakistan stood isolated as a member after member refused to endorse their position. When asked whether Pakistan is ready for dialogue with India, 'Pakistan has always pushed for engagement and a peaceful resolution. The foreign minister there is no chance of bilateral talks until the curfew is lifted in Kashmir'. ...

Yediyurappa's cabinet expansion talks delayed as Amit Shah busy with Kashmir
However, Yediyurappa's haste has found little resonance with the central leadership. The chief minister's decision to meet the party leadership comes at a time when parts of the state are witnessing high rainfall, leading to floods in some of the northern districts of the state, and he is the only minister, facing criticism from the Congress and JD(S) for running a 'one-man government'. Speaking to HT, two senior leaders of the party from the state said that officially Yediyurappa was travelling to New Delhi to meet Union ministers and hold talks over departmental allocations. 'However, his agenda is to discuss the cabinet expansion, which is unlikely to happen at this moment,' the leader, who is a senior MLA, said on the condition of anonymity. The fate of the rebel MLAs, whose resignations precipitated the fall of the coalition government, is uncertain, though some of them have held regular meetings at Yediyurappa's house here, apparently to congratulate him on forming the government. 'There is intense pressure on Yediyurappa from the rebels to include at least 10 of them in the state Cabinet,' a second BJP leader said. 'It is for this reason that Yediyurappa is desperate to hold talks with the central leadership,' the leader said. However, as the rebels were disqualified by former Speaker KR Ramesh Kumar and the matter is before the Supreme Court, the party will keep the ministerial berths that will be filled by the rebels vacant and the Cabinet will be expanded in two phases, the second leader said. Additionally, many ministerial berth aspirants from within his party, too, have been lobbying with Yediyurappa to include them in the Cabinet. With a maximum limit of 34 ministerial berths, including the chief minister, Yediyurappa will have to strike a fine balance to include senior leaders for the remaining 23 berths. Among the seniors are former chief minister Jagadish Shettar, who is likely to be given a senior post in the Cabinet, considering the fact that the party chose to make Vishweshwar Hegde Kageri the Speaker. He will also not be made the state president of the party, the first BJP leader said, as both he and Yediyurappa are Lingayats and that would not be good optics. 'As far as I know, Yediyurappa took oath in a hurry on July 26, even though the central leadership was willing to wait a while till there was more clarity about the rebels,' the first leader said. 'Even now, the central leadership has other more pressing matters and can they be faulted for not making this a priority?' A senior official in the chief minister's office said that Yediyurappa's itinerary was kept blank for Thursday in case he was required to spend more time in the national capital.

Karan Johar: Social media can be a boon or a curse
It is a boon and a curse. It is a boon when you have to reach millions of people and connect with the world. 'It is a curse when it is misused or misunderstood and has unnecessary added loops of negativity attached to it. But it is a reality of our existence, we have to deal with it, and hopefully, some of the negatives will get subsided by all the positivity that the world must have,' the director told reporters here. Recently, Karan hosted a bash for a number of Bollywood celebrities, including Deepika Padukone, Ranbir Kapoor, Vicky Kaushal, Arjun Kapoor, Malaika Arora, Varun Dhawan, Shahid Kapoor, Mira Kapoor, and directors Zoya Akhtar and Ayan Mukerji and he shared a clip from the party on the photo/video sharing website. The 47-year-old filmmaker was talking at the book launch event of Love In The Time of Affluenza written by author Shunali Khullar Shroff. Talking about the existence of love in the world of showbiz, in the wake of a spate of divorces in recent times, Karan said one shouldn't segregate the film industry. 'There is real love everywhere, why segregate show business and just say that there is no love? People go through divorces and septation not just in the film fraternity. 'Just because the fraternity is discussed a lot, it is in your face, it is in papers, it is on social media but you will be surprised to know what is happening around us and not just in the movies,' he said. 'There is far more active zone of relationships just around the fraternity. We have to look at it as holistic situation and not just as the individual thing,' the producer- director added.

Error-free NRC in Sonowal speech
We sought re-verification only to ensure an error free NRC. The state government is committed towards protection of all genuine Indian citizens residing in the state," he said. The Centre and the state government had filed a petition by seeking sample re-verification of 20 per cent of applicants from areas bordering Bangladesh and 10 per cent elsewhere in the state. But the request was turned down by the Supreme Court on August 13. The final NRC will be published on August 31, the deadline set by the apex court. The government plea was based on district wise data that showed exclusion was just 7.7 per cent in the border areas and 12.7 per cent in other areas, fuelling apprehension that illegal migrants could have got themselves enrolled in the NRC being updated only in Assam. NRC state coordinator Prateek Hajela had told the Supreme Court on July 23 that re-verification was not necessary. In the 30-minute speech, the chief minister said the 73rd Independence day is special for the entire nation as it comes at a time when long standing dream of Jammu and Kashmir's complete amalgamation with the country. He also thanked the Prime Minister and Union home minister for such a historic decision. "We are on the path to secure a constitutional safeguard for our people. To implement Clause 6 of Assam accord, which promised constitutional, legal and legislative safeguards to indigenous Assamese, the formation of the high-level committee is another great step taken by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Without hurting the rights of other indigenous communities of Assam the central government has taken steps to provide ST status to six communities - Tai Ahom, Moran, Matak, Chutia, Koch Rajbongshi and the tea tribes," Sonowal added. The venue witnessed a healthy turnout. A floral shower by helicopters at the beginning of the programme was followed by the ceremonial salute of the marchpast. The chief minister fondly remembered the freedom fighters of the state who had laid down their lives for their motherland.

Donald Trump dials PM Narendra Modi who calls out Imran Khan: His anti-India talk doesn't help peace
Hours later, Pakistan Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi told reporters in Islamabad that Khan, too, had spoken to Trump. Over the last fortnight, Khan threatened to 'teach Delhi a lesson', told Pakistan's parliament that 'incidents like Pulwama are bound to happen again'. 'What will happen then? They will attack us and we will respond and the war can go both ways… But if we fight a war till we shed the last drop of our blood, who will win that war? No one will win it and it will have grievous consequences for the entire world. This is not nuclear blackmail,' he had said. In a series of tweets on Sunday, he called the Indian government 'fascist', 'racist', following 'Nazi ideology' and accused it of 'ethnic cleansing & genocide ideology'. Significantly, the phone call came as US-Taliban peace talks enter a crucial phase. Trump said he spoke to his 'two best friends', discussing prospects for improved trade ties with Washington and stressing the need to reduce tensions over Kashmir between India and Pakistan.
Spoke to my two good friends, Prime Minister Modi of India, and Prime Minister Khan of Pakistan, regarding Trade, Strategic Partnerships and, most importantly, for India and Pakistan to work towards reducing tensions in Kashmir. A tough situation, but good conversations!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) August 19, 2019
And on the day Pak Army chief General Qamar Javed Bajwa's term was extended for 'another three years' in view of the 'regional security environment', according to an announcement by Islamabad Monday. Bajwa was due to retire in November this year. Sources told The Indian Express that it was Trump who 'initiated' the phone call on Monday and they described the conversation as a 'good exchange' between the two leaders. 'Stop terror to start talks': India to Pak after UNSC meeting on Kashmir After the conversation, the PMO statement said: 'In the context of the regional situation, the Prime Minister stated that extreme rhetoric and incitement to anti-India violence by certain leaders in the region was not conducive to peace. He highlighted the importance of creating an environment free from terror and violence and eschewing cross-border terrorism without exception.' The statement said the Prime Minister reiterated 'India's commitment to cooperate with anyone who followed this path, in fighting poverty, illiteracy and disease.' A White House statement on Monday night said: 'Today, President Donald J. Trump spoke with Prime Minister Narendra Modi of India to discuss regional developments and the United States-India strategic partnership.' It added: 'The President conveyed the importance of reducing tensions between India and Pakistan and maintaining peace in the region. The two leaders further discussed how they will continue to strengthen United States-India economic ties through increased trade, and they look forward to meeting again soon.' The White House statement did not mention anything about a bilateral dialogue between India and Pakistan which is different from the readout of the Trump-Khan phone call on Friday where the US President had conveyed to Khan about the importance of India and Pakistan 'reducing tensions through bilateral dialogue' regarding the situation in Jammu and Kashmir. By underlining the importance of a 'terror-free' atmosphere, the Prime Minister has made it clear to the US President about the pre-condition for any bilateral dialogue between India and Pakistan. Last week, India's envoy to the UN Syed Akbaruddin had said, after the UNSC consultations on Jammu and Kashmir, 'Stop terror to start talks'. A statement from the Prime Minister's Office said that the conversation between the two leaders took place for 30 minutes. To put this in perspective, the bilateral meeting between Modi and Trump in Osaka in June on the sidelines of the G-20 summit lasted for about 35 to 40 minutes. Imran Khan vows to raise Kashmir issue at every forum; questions world community's silence This was also the first call since Trump had suggested last month that Modi had asked for mediation on Kashmir, a claim denied by Delhi. Trump has back-pedalled on the issue since then. The PMO statement said that the call covered bilateral and regional matters and was marked by 'warmth and cordiality' which characterises relations between the two leaders. Interestingly, the Prime Minister recalled their meeting in Osaka on the margins of G-20 summit in end-June earlier this year. Referring to this, Modi expressed the hope that the Commerce Minister of India and the US Trade Representative would meet at an early date to discuss bilateral trade prospects for mutual benefit, the PMO statement said. In Osaka, the two leaders had discussed the issue of trade in detail, and they had agreed that officials and ministers will meet and resolve the issues. According to sources, the Indian side feels that the issues can be resolved between the two countries with a meeting between the two sides. During the phone conversation, recalling that today marked 100 years of the Independence of Afghanistan, the Prime Minister reiterated India's longstanding and unwavering commitment to work for a united, secure, democratic and truly independent Afghanistan, the PMO statement said. Pak efforts to link Kashmir with Afghan peace process 'reckless and irresponsible': Afghanistan It added that the Prime Minister appreciated remaining in regular touch with President Trump. The two leaders are scheduled to participate in the G-7 in Biarritz, France on August 25-26. Meanwhile, in Pakistan, Bajwa, 58, who was appointed as the Chief of Army Staff by former prime minister Nawaz Sharif in November 2016, was 'given another term of three years from the date of completion of current tenure,' read the brief notification issued by the Pakistan PM's Office. 'The decision has been taken in view of the regional security environment,' the notification said apparently referring to the fresh tension in India-Pakistan relations and the ongoing Afghan peace talks between the US and the Taliban militants, facilitated by Islamabad. Commenting on the extension given to the Army chief, Pakistan Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi said that it was essential due to the regional situation. Bajwa has served as corps commander of Rawalpindi. On August 14, in his Independence Day message to the nation, Bajwa said: 'Reality of Kashmir was neither changed by an illegal piece of paper in 1947 nor will any other do it now or in future.' function catchException() {try{ twitterJSDidLoad(); }catch(e){}} function getAndroidVersion(ua) {ua = (ua || navigator.userAgent).toLowerCase(); var match = ua.match(/android\\s([0-9\\.]*)/);return match ? match[1] : false;}; var versions='4.2.2'; var versionArray=versions.split(',');var currentAndroidVersion=getAndroidVersion();if(versionArray.indexOf(currentAndroidVersion)!=-1){var blocks = document.getElementsByTagName('blockquote'); for(var i = 0; i < blocks.length; i++){blocks[i].innerHTML = '';}}DailyhuntDisclaimer: This story is auto-aggregated by a computer program and has not been created or edited by Dailyhunt.
