Dan Ticktum spotted playing Metaphor on his mobile phone
Formula E has revealed how Cupra Kiro driver Dan Ticktum keeps himself entertained during race delays. A video shows Ticktum sitting in the car while waiting for the race to start and killing time by playing a game on his mobile phone. The video hints that someone, probably Oliver Rowland, was heard saying, 'Is he playing Call of Duty? Haha hahaha legend.'
Ticktum himself revealed in the comments section that he was playing Metaphor.
A fan commented on the video, 'Genuinely cool team for letting him do that. This is how you keep a driver happy.' Ticktum responded to the fan, saying, 'Absolutely.' When another asked, 'Is that Metaphor?' Ticktum replied, 'Yes lol.'
A fan wrote, 'Bro I think he got a little bit distracted.' Another said, 'Classic tickboom.' One more said, 'Dan is bored and bored is dan.
This is the most ticktum thing to ever happened.' A fan agreed with Ticktum, saying, 'gotta keep entertained mate.' A comment also read: 'He can give you a million excuses for why F1 never worked out for him. But this video is a reason.'
Dan Ticktum also made headlines recently for responding to George Russell's remark when the Mercedes driver hinted at him for being the only one who deliberately hit a co-participant in a race. Ticktum said in a recorded message, 'Number one, thank you for the free publicity. We'll take that any day of the week. And two, while what Max did today was a little bit sceptical, to be likened to him at any point in my career is a positive if you ask me.
Goodbye."

Sonakshi Sinha on why Nikita Roy's release got pushed ahead
Sonakshi Sinha in Nikita Roy Sonakshi Sinha 's film Nikita Roy was originally slated to hit theatres yesterday, but the release has been postponed. The decision was made to steer clear of a crowded release week that included star-studded films, F1: The Movie, Kannappa and Maa. The announcement was shared by the filmmakers and Sonakshi on Instagram. In a quick chat about the decision to push the film ahead and how she thinks it's the right way to go, Sonakshi says, 'It was in the interest of the film. We want a wider audience for our film.' 'Films getting pushed is nothing new and I don't think it is a big deal' The actress also pointed out that such changes aren't uncommon in the industry. 'Humse pehle bhi kayi filmien aise push hui hai. Ajay sir's (Devgn) film Auron Mein Kahan Dum Tha too, was pushed to avoid a clash with Kalki 2898 AD. So, films getting pushed is nothing new and I don't think it is a big deal.' 'I am going to watch Maa' One of the films that would have clashed with Nikita Roy had it released this week, is Maa headlined by Kajol . Talking about how excited she is about watching it this week, she says, 'Kajol is someone I've looked up to and admired. She's a fantastic actress and a lovely person. It was a coincidence that both our films are in the supernatural space. I am going to watch it. I really enjoyed the trailer and she's looking phenomenal in the film.'

Kannappa box office Day 1: Vishnu Manchu's film outperforms Maa, F1 in India
Telugu devotional film, 'Kannappa', opened on a solid note at the domestic box office upon its release on June 27. The film has surpassed the Day 1 collection of Kajol's horror drama 'Maa', and Brad Pitt's 'F1' at the box office in India. 'Kannappa' is a film based on the legend of Kannappa, a staunch devotee of Lord to the tracking website, Sacnilk, the film earned Rs 9 crore nett at the domestic box office. While this isn't a huge number to start the theatrical run with, the film has been clocking in excellent occupancy in theatres. 'Kannappa' is expected to see an incline in numbers during the 'Maa' minted Rs 4.50 crore, half of what 'Kannappa' did on its first day at the box office. Brad Pitt's much-anticipated 'F1' collected Rs 5.25 crore in India. India Today reviewer, Sanjay Ponnappa, rated the film 2.5 out 5 stars and wrote, "Kannappa falters when it comes to direction, screenplay, and execution. Director Mukesh Kumar Singh, known for several mythological TV serials, brings the same melodramatic and slightly outdated touch to the film. The story and screenplay, written by Vishnu Manchu himself, add a fictional arc to the devotional tale we all know. Although the arc has interesting ideas, it suffers from poor execution in both writing and direction."Directed by Mukesh Kumar Singh, 'Kannappa' features an ensemble cast including Mohanlal, Akshay Kumar, Kajal Aggawarlal and Prabhas in cameo roles. The supporting roles include Mohan Babu, Sarathkumar, Brahmanandam, Brahmaji, Madhoo, Mukesh Rishi and Raghu Babu.'Kannappa' is jointly produced by AVA Entertainment and 24 Frames Factory.- EndsMust Watch
