‘Chinese semi-finalists vanquished': Anand Mahindra can't keep calm as its India vs India in Chess World Cup final. Who are they?
Tired of too many ads? Remove Ads Who is Koneru Humpy? Who is the teenager, Divya Deshmukh? India is guaranteed a historic victory at the 2025 FIDE Women's Chess World Cup — because both finalists are Indian. In a landmark moment for the sport, 38-year-old chess icon Koneru Humpy will face off against 19-year-old rising star Divya Deshmukh in an all-Indian finale that has electrified the chess world. The final is scheduled to begin on Saturday, July 26, at 4:30 p.m. IST. Anand Mahindra couldn't hold back his excitement and took to X (formerly Twitter), writing, 'Both Chinese semi-finalists vanquished… It's going to be an all-Indian Final at the FIDE Women's World Cup 2025! Divya Deshmukh vs Humpy Koneru. This is just awesome…'The clash is not only a celebration of Indian chess but also a guaranteed first — whichever way the result swings, India will claim the Women's World Cup title for the very first Humpy, one of India's most decorated players, booked her place in the final after a gritty comeback against China's Lei Tingjie in the semifinals. Known for her cool head and precision in rapid formats, Humpy used her experience to outplay her opponent in the the other hand, Divya Deshmukh's rise has been nothing short of meteoric. The teenage sensation has already earned her Grandmaster norm and is just one win away from becoming India's fourth woman Grandmaster. With this final, she becomes the first Indian to reach the Women's World Cup final — and possibly the youngest winner yet.

Javed Akhtar Posts, Then Deletes "Please Share This" Tweet With E-Gates PSA
Veteran lyricist Javed Akhtar found himself at the centre of a social media storm after accidentally posting a note on X (formerly Twitter) that seemed to hint at a paid promotion of eGates, or automated gates, to facilitate a faster and more efficient immigration process. Hours later, the post, which included a "please share this" note, was swiftly deleted. Javed Akhtar then shared an ad promoting eGates. In the follow-up note, he wrote, "This is an ad about more efficient device at the airport. I thought frequent fliers should know about it." This is an ad about more efficient device at the airport . I thought frequent fliers should know about it — Javed Akhtar (@Javedakhtarjadu) July 24, 2025 Earlier in the day, Javed Akhtar had shared the same video on his timeline but apparently forgot to delete the attached message, which read, "Sir, this is the official video by the Ministry of Home Affairs for e-Gates for immigration. Sir, please share this video; this will spread awareness among people of India." The video was presumably sent to Javed Akhtar as part of a campaign by the authorities from the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA). The series of tweets remained visible on his X page for over two hours. Read the full story here. In other news, a few days ago, Javed Akhtar shared his views on Diljit Dosanjh's Sardaarji 3 row in an interview with NDTV. When asked about Diljit working with Pakistani actress Hania Aamir in the film, the lyricist said that he wasn't aware when the movie was shot. On being told that the film was shot before the Pahalgam attack, Javed Akhtar said, "Ab kya karein bechara. The movie was shot earlier. Usko pata toh nahi tha ki aisa hoga. Iss mein Pakistani aadmi ka paisa toh nahi doobega, Hindustani ka paisa doobega. Toh phir kya faayda?" He added, "Usko pehle pata hota yeh hone wala hain, toh woh thodi na leta Pakistani actress. I think the government and the censor board should look at the situation with a little sympathy. And say that don't do this again, but since you made this film before, then release it. But it should not happen again." Known for his work in Hindi cinema, Javed Akhtar is credited with writing films like Sholay, Silsila, Seeta Aur Geeta, Deewar and Don.
