WATCH: Shreyas Iyer gets ‘clean bowled' by his mother while playing cricket in living room
With experts advocating for Shreyas Iyer's inclusion in India's ongoing Test series against England, the batter was seen having a relaxing time with his family in their home, playing cricket with his mother. In a video shared by Punjab Kings, Iyer's IPL franchise, the PBKS captain was facing deliveries from his mother in the living room with one delivery even breaching his defence. 'Only time SARPANCH won't mind getting bowled!,' Punjab Kings posted on X, sharing the video. His mother gleefully celebrated as she shouted 'out' with the video ending soon after. Shreyas and his parents share a pretty comfortable bond with his parents taking pride in narrating the pranks their children play on them to visitors. When The Indian Express visited their home once, the father spoke of how Shreyas was in the habit of fooling them on phone. He once faked an English accent to check if his father was traveling to the UK to watch his son play a county game. When his mother is in the kitchen, Shreyas's 'what's cooking' inquiry is unique: 'Aaj kya bigaad rahi ho (what meal are you spoiling today)'. But still Shreyas might be the only Indian cricketer who still gets dropped to the airport by both his parents. Only time SARPANCH won't mind getting bowled! 😂♥️ — Punjab Kings (@PunjabKingsIPL) June 30, 2025 Meanwhile, there were questions raised over Iyer's exclusion from India's extensive 18-member squad announced in May, and the situation sparked more questions about the 30-year-old's red-ball future at the international level. Iyer was in blistering form in the IPL, leading Punjab Kings to a runners-up finish with his best season with the bat, scoring 604 runs at a 50-plus average and a staggering 175.07 strike rate with 39 sixes. Iyer also had a productive Ranji Trophy season besides leading Mumbai to the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy win in December 2024. In nine First Class matches, including an Irani Cup triumph, Iyer aggregated 699 runs with two centuries and three fifties. However, that would not be enough to make a comeback to the Test squad for Iyer, who last represented India during the 2024 home series against England. Chairman of selectors Ajit Agarkar had reasoned that there was no room currently for Iyer in the scheme of things despite his solid form at the domestic level. 'Yes, Shreyas Iyer has played well in domestic cricket, but at the moment, there is no room for him on the Test Team,' he said while speaking to reporters in Mumbai when announcing the Test squad in late May.

'Hum gareeb hain': Dilip reacts as Ram Kapoor says Farah Khan owns a mini building on top of a massive one
Bollywood filmmaker Farah Khan recently visited Ram Kapoor and Gautami Kapoor's house in South Bombay with her cook, Dilip, for her new vlog. The filmmaker was visibly awestruck by their beautiful home and some of its luxurious fittings, such as a movie room and a large, lips-shaped chair in the bathroom. However, Ram also shared some interesting details about Farah's house with the viewers. Ram Kapoor shares details about Farah Khan's luxurious house. Farah couldn't stop gushing about Ram's home, so the actor decided to reveal some fun details about hers. He shared, "Farah Khan ka ghar shuru hota hai aur fir building khatam hojaati hai par uska ghar khatam nahi hota. Pehle lift mein you go till the top, uske baad ek aur lift hai jo Farah ki private lift hai jo 3-4 maale jaati hai" (Farah Khan's house begins and then the entire building ends, but her house still doesn't end. First, you take the lift to the top, then there's another lift — Farah's private lift — which goes up 3–4 more floors). There's a ground floor, first floor, second floor, and third floor. On the third floor, there's a private terrace and a private swimming pool. So basically, Farah Khan owns a mini building on top of a massive building." Dilip then added a hilarious twist to the conversation by saying, 'Hum gareeb hain (we are poor).' However, Gautami responded cheekily, saying she knows his net worth now, hinting that it's a substantial one. For the unversed, Dilip owns a six-bedroom bungalow in Bihar, where he lives with his family. On the work front, Farah was last seen hosting the show Celebrity MasterChef, which featured Tejasswi Prakash, Nikki Tamboli, Gaurav Khanna, Faisal Shaikh, Dipika Kakar and others as participants. The show was judged by chefs Vikas Khanna and Ranveer Brar, with Gaurav ultimately taking home the title. Ram Kapoor, on the other hand, is currently receiving praise for his performance in the show Mistry. It is the Hindi version of Monk and also stars Mona Singh in a lead role. The series is available to watch on JioHotstar.

Box Office: Sitaare Zameen Par crosses Ghajini globally to emerge Aamir Khan's 6th highest grosser; Dangal retains top spot
Aamir Khan is among the most loved Indian actors. His latest film Sitaare Zameen Par is doing well at the box office for the size of film that it is. The sports drama has collected Rs 195 crore globally by its second Sunday, surpassing the worldwide earnings of Aamir's 2008 blockbuster Ghajini, which earned Rs 194.60 crore. This achievement makes Sitaare Zameen Par, Aamir Khan's 6th highest-grossing film ever. Let's dive into how this film compares to his other hits on the global stage. Sitaare Zameen Par Has Crossed The Global Earnings Of Ghajini; Is Now Aamir Khan's 6th Highest Grosser After the underwhelming performance of Laal Singh Chaddha in 2022, which earned slightly over Rs 130 crore worldwide, Aamir Khan has made a good comeback. Sitaare Zameen Par, which tells the story of a basketball coach training players with special needs, has resonated deeply with many. It has reiterated that the actor still has a knack of what works and what doesn't, with the audience. Ghajini was a game-changer in 2008. It was the first Bollywood film to cross the Rs 100 crore mark in India, earning Rs 114 crore net domestically and Rs 194.60 crore worldwide. Its intense action and gripping story made it a massive hit. However, Sitaare Zameen Par has now overtaken it globally with Rs 195 crore. Ghajini continues to be a bigger hit because if adjusted for inflation, its India net numbers itself would be around Rs 400 crore, if not more. Sitaare Zameen Par now ranks as Aamir's 6th highest-grossing film worldwide. Here's how it compares to his top earners: (lead roles only) Rank Movie Worldwide Gross Collections 1 Dangal Rs 1910 crore 2 PK Rs 757 crore 3 Dhoom 3 Rs 554 crore 4 3 Idiots Rs 415 crore 5 Thugs Of Hindostan Rs 310 crore 6 Sitaare Zameen Par Rs 195 crore and counting.. Can Sitaare Zameen Par Cross Thugs Of Hindostan Worldwide? Sitaare Zameen Par is now behind Thugs Of Hindostan. With strong audience support and a release in non-traditional international markets, it might challenge for the 5th spot soon. If the movie does not breakout in non-traditional international markets, Thugs Of Hindostan will retain its 5th position. Sitaare Zameen Par In Theatres Sitaare Zameen Par plays in theatres.
