Vishwak Sen uses Labubu doll as his G Wagon's dishti bomma; fans think it's hilarious. Watch
The world might be fawning over Labubu dolls, showing them off on social media and hanging them on designer bags, but Vishwak Sen has other plans. A paparazzo caught the actor out and about in Hyderabad, but what drew everyone's attention was Vishwak using his Labubu as his G Wagon's dishti bomma (doll to ward off evil). Fans couldn't stop laughing about it. Vishwak Sen hung a Labubu on his G Wagon like a dishti bomma to ward off evil eyes. (Instagram: Artistrybuzz) Vishwak Sen's dishti bomma Labubu A paparazzo posted a video on Instagram of Vishwak spotted driving his G Wagon in Hyderabad. Hanging from the car was a Labubu, not inside from a rearview mirror, but behind the car in a spot where people hang amulets or dolls to ward off evil. These China-made monster dolls might cost around $27.99 to $959.90 ( ₹2398.11 to ₹82,241.74), depending on the size, but to the actor, they seem nothing more than an odd car accessory. One fan commented, 'VishwakSen proved it that money can buy and money can make a labubu doll into Dishti Bomma.' Another joked that this was the 'right' way to use the doll, and a fan wrote, 'G wagon paruvu matter edhe (It's a matter of respect for the G Wagon).' One person even joked, 'Labubu (cross emoji) buri nazar waale tera muh kaala (tick emoji).' Another wrote that they would've 'done the same' if they had found a Labubu. Numerous Indian celebrities, including Ananya Panday, Sharvari Wagh, Pashmina Roshan, and Twinkle Khanna, have embraced the Labubu toy, which has recently regained popularity. The toy gained widespread attention first in April 2024 after K-pop group BLACKPINK member Lisa was spotted with a Labubu keychain on her bag. Recent work In 2024, Vishwak was seen in Gaami, Gangs of Godavari and Mechanic Rocky. In 2025, he starred in Laila. While Gaami got critical acclaim and Laila was criticised for vulgarity, all his films struggled to find footing at the box office. He will soon reprise his role as Vivek for Tharun Bhascker's sequel to Ee Nagaraniki Emaindhi, titled ENE Repeat.

Mercedes-Benz Offers Fans the Ultimate Off-Road G-Wagen Experience
The Mercedes G-Wagon is a legendary vehicle The Mercedes G-Wagon has a loyal following, and since 2020, Mercedes-Benz has been offering the most dedicated and passionate G-Class enthusiasts a unique, action-packed program featuring their favorite boxy 4x4s. At the G‑Class Experience Center near its factory in Graz, Austria, fans can experience what it's like to drive a G-Wagon in situations other than traversing city streets, daily commutes, mall parking lots, and the valet areas behind velvet ropes at high-end restaurants. Mercedes is more than eager to show its loyal fans what the G-Wagon is capable of at the absolute limit, whether it be on extreme slopes of up to 35 degrees, experiencing one-wheel traction, deep mud, or on the infamous Iron Schöckl's 100% gradient. 2025 Ford Maverick: 4 reasons to love it, 2 reasons to think twice Watch More Since Mercedes introduced the experience in 2020, eager fans worldwide were quick to fill every slot when it offered the experience every year. However, this year, Mercedes‑Benz is expanding its fan-favorite G‑Class customer programs with new challenges and more unique experiences. A summer camp for G-Wagon fans This year, Mercedes is offering loyal fans of the G-Class SUV the chance to have some new experiences related to their favorite boxy off-roader, including the opportunity to embark on a curated adventure that shows the luxury 4×4's capabilities in a challenging new environment. These new G-Class-related experiences are the first to take place away from the G‑Class Experience Center in Graz. Dubbed the G‑Class Expedition Desert Edition, 20 enthusiasts in various G-Class vehicles will trek across the mountains and deserts of Morocco over the course of five days.

In essence, Mercedes is offering an off-roading luxury summer camp centered around the G-Wagon, which kicks off with a welcome dinner and a night at a 5-star hotel in Marrakech before setting off on a 504-mile (811 km) off-road journey across Morocco the next morning. Here, drivers will rock across the stunning Atlas Mountains, where they'll climb up to 9,186 feet (2,800 meters), traversing scenic passes, rocky trails, water crossings, and the kind of rugged terrain that G-Classes are made for. After a night at a hotel near Dades, drivers continue the trip on the Anti-Atlas range toward the Merzouga Desert. Enthusiasts will get to eat lunch at Gara Medouar, a crater made famous by the James Bond film Spectre, before heading off to a private desert camp in time for a spectacular sunset over the dunes. On day four, it's full desert mode. Guests will drive as part of convoys while they play in the sand and eat each other's dust. The journey wraps up in Errachidia with a charter flight back to Marrakech and a final farewell dinner to cap off this wild off-road escape. The G-Wagon Experience, part II In addition to the Morocco experience, this year, Mercedes is offering G-Class fans an extended and more challenging version of the G‑Class Experience. Dubbed the 'Private Coaching' package, G-Wagon fans get an extended look at what makes the legendary off-roader over the course of two days. After spending a night at a hotel in Graz following the usual G-Class experience program, drivers will get to experience the legendary Schöckl test track. For the first time, drivers will tackle the nearly 3.5-mile (5.6 km), 4,470-feet-high (1,445 meters) course that's been putting every G-Class through its paces for over 40 years alongside dedicated instructors. Mercedes calls it the Nurburgring Nordschleife for off-readers, where full-on thrills can be found when the asphalt gives way to gravel, then nothing but raw terrain. Drivers will navigate their G-Wagons on 60% gradients, 40% inclines, knee-high ledges on one or two wheels, deep ruts, hollow paths, and will even have to squeeze past massive trees and sheer drops. Final thoughts According to Mercedes-Benz, these events will only be around for a limited time and won't be cheap. The two-day 'Private Coaching' G-Class Experience is only available until November and will cost 9,950 euros (~$11,465) for two people. It includes two nights with breakfast at a partner hotel in Graz, 'culinary highlights' at the G‑Class Experience Center, and a welcome dinner in Graz's city centre. For the Mercedes-Benz Morocco Trip, just six events are planned from October to November. The cost is 14,990 euros (~$17,283) per spot, which includes five nights of accommodation, meals, and a charter flight from Errachidia to Marrakech. Mercedes is going all-out when it comes to giving its fans a taste of what the brand is about. It goes beyond a booth at an auto show, a brand activation, or a pop-up; granted, you do have to pay a hefty penny to experience these things. Perhaps this could open up opportunities for Mercedes to conduct a 'world tour' and allow fans to experience the G-Wagon in different environments around the globe. For instance, I'd like to see a G-Wagon drive near the Arctic Circle, but I guess it all depends on the proximity to a decent hotel. About the Author James Ochoa View Profile

Molly-Mae Hague gets her FIFTH parking ticket of the year after leaving £200k G Wagon outside her Cheshire office
Molly-Mae Hague has been slapped with her fifth parking ticket of the year as she left her £200,000 G Wagon on a street in Cheshire on Thursday. The former Love Island star, 26, was seen leaving a business meeting at her office and seemed non-plussed to have been slapped with her second ticket in 24 hours. For the outing, the star wore a stylish grey co-ord set from her clothing brand Maebe, which consisted of a long-sleeved pleated button-up top and matching trousers. She sported a pair of casual khaki trainers and toted her essentials in a tan shoulder bag as she strolled down the street with her phone in hand. To complete her look, Molly further accessorised with trendy Prada shades and swept her blonde tresses back into her usual sleek bun. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the Daily Mail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. The TV personality has also received parking fines in March, February and January of this year. A representative for Molly-Mae has been contacted by MailOnline for comment. Her outing comes after it was claimed that a feud is brewing between Molly-Mae and Tommy Fury 's families over their decision to give their relationship another go. The TV star and the boxer, 26, shocked fans last summer when they announced that they had split, with Tommy later revealing it was down to his drinking. But this year, they have slowly reconciled and enjoyed several family trips abroad with their daughter Bambi, two. But a report from The Sun this week suggested that Molly-Mae's sister Zoe is concerned about them getting back together. In the latest episodes of Molly-Mae's Amazon Prime documentary Behind It All, Zoe expressed her doubts over Tommy openly. And this in turn has reportedly angered Tommy's family including his brother Tyson and his wife Paris. A source told the publication: 'The Fury family aren't impressed that Zoe has been so outspoken about Tommy. 'They're a fiercely loyal bunch and seeing Zoe's comments broadcast to millions of people via Amazon absolutely got their hackles up. 'To them, Tommy is a stand-up guy, a good, hard-working father. His drinking issues shouldn't be used as a stick to beat him.' The insider added that Paris is confused as to why Zoe would try to hinder the family from getting back together. Tyson, Tommy and Molly-Mae have been contacted by MailOnline for comment. Zoe said of Tommy during the documentary: 'I do worry for her and my relationship with her if they did get back together. 'I think she potentially needs to look into the future and think about what's best for her and Bambi. She's got a long, rocky road ahead, unfortunately.' It comes after last week Molly-Mae and Tommy looked every inch the happy family as they enjoyed a very lavish 'surprise trip' to the Cotswolds. After months of rumours that the couple had rekindled their romance following their split in August, the pair finally went Instagram official last month with a loved-up family snap. And Tommy has clearly been making the effort since their shock split as he whisked his family off on a 'surprise trip' to the Cotswolds. Sharing an array of snaps to her Instagram Stories, Molly shared some sweet moments from the mini-break as she took a dip in the pool with Bambi. Elsewhere she shared a snippet of her very lavish accommodation which featured huge L-shaped couches and large emperor beds. And Bambi appeared to settle in straight away as she was pushing her toy pram around the luxury property. Alongside a mirror selfie, Molly penned: 'Back from St Tropez and straight to the Cotswolds for a surprise staycation. 'This look is giving mum who's had approx 3 seconds to get ready'. Molly and Tommy fell for each other in front of the nation during series five of Love Island, going on to welcome Bambi and then get engaged in 2023. It comes after a rollercoaster of a year for the couple after they shocked the nation with their split in August 2024 as Tommy claimed his drinking became a problem in their relationship (pictured last year) But fans were shocked when Molly announced on Instagram last August that she and Tommy had split up after five years, with many suspecting he had been unfaithful. In a statement posted to her 8.5million Instagram followers, she confirmed the breakup, saying: 'I never imagined our story would end, especially not this way.' Tommy denied continued speculation about him cheating during a magazine interview, insisting any reports about him being with other women were 'complete and utter b*****ks.' The boxer, who's the half-brother of heavyweight champion Tyson, said the reason he and Molly ended their romance was down to his excessive drinking. He said: 'People go through different things in life. I'm 25 years old. I went through a lot and my breakup was in front of the whole world... 'Cheating was never a thing. You can ask Molly this yourself. It was the drink, and the drink is not a good thing.' The pair's split was branded a 'publicity stunt' by fans after they were filmed packing on the PDA at Manchester United footballer Luke Shaw 's Hogmanay party in Cheshire.

Red Flags That Made People Rule Out Marriage
Choosing the person you want to spend the rest of your life with is such a big decision, and occasionally, your significant other can exhibit behaviors along the way that can really open your eyes. So, when Reddit user u/iwishiwasacargirl asked the question, "What did your partner do that made you instantly realize you could never marry them?" In r/AskReddit, I knew it would be full of some big realizations: "He talked about his brother's pregnant wife 'being fat and letting herself go.' She was eight months pregnant and was basically all belly. It was a weird and disgusting thing to say but also very untrue." "After a few months of being pretty normal, it became clear that she was jealous, suspicious, and very clingy. She tried to put her foot down about me having female friends, which I've always then she became resentful when I even hung out with guy friends. She also made it seem like if we stayed together, we would inevitably have to move to her home country of Japan, and I would end up working for her father, who was a successful entrepreneur." "They were yelling at me that they were 'the catch' in the relationship. All I was catching was raising an adult person who hoards, mistreats two cats, refuses to work, and funds smoking habits with payday loans." "He demonstrated a very poor work ethic after assuring me that he'd get his shit together, and then he bought me a mug and flowers on my birthday and treated that like some Herculean effort." "He told me what he saw as our future. We would move to Hawaii, he would grow weed in our basement, and I would work. While our relationship was already not great before then, I realized that this future he described made me nauseous." "This happened in my early 20s. He told me that when he gets home late from partying (like 2-3 a.m.), he wakes his mom up to cook him food. I had always heard that a guy treats you as well as he does his mother. Nope!" "He insisted on buying me a G Wagon once we got married because he needed a wife driving a G Wagon. I didn't even know what that was, and when I Googled it, I was shocked it was the price of a house. He also had about half a million in debt in student loans, credit cards, a car loan, etc." "She tried to guilt me into spending several thousand dollars on a vacation. Their family had money and decided to take a spur-of-the-moment international vacation. All of her expenses would be paid by the family, but I would be out at least $5,000. Technically, I had the money, but I was working 50 hours a week when she was working maybe 15. I was saving for our future." "I was working crazy hours at work for a short period and housesitting for his family while he was on holiday. He got mad at me for not texting him during my 15-minute 'lunch break.' I texted and called him morning and night. He told me that because of this, I was 'neglecting' him and that I 'wasn't missing him enough.' This was just the tip of the iceberg. Thank god I ended that engagement." "He played a game on his phone while I poured my heart out about how I had been struggling with my mental health and taking care of myself. I didn't really have the wake-up call until I stayed at his place for two weeks with my cat while I was very sick with a mystery illness that lasted about four months..." "Changing his personality drastically when he was with his friends. He was loving and romantic in private but would be disrespectful in front of his friends (like, 'Woman, you are here to serve me'). He was full of values with his family, especially about gay rights (his uncle being gay), but the first one to laugh and tell anti-gay 'jokes' with his friends." "We got into a conflict while he was driving, and he pulled some sketchy driving moves to 'show me how angry I'd made him.'" "In university I had a friend who passed on tragically and unexpectedly. She had a not-so-secret crush on me, which made my girlfriend at the time jealous. Upon hearing the news, my girlfriend's response was not that of sympathy or grief, but only smug indifference and schadenfreude. Totally awful." "I had a bad reaction to antibiotics and ended up in the hospital. I drove myself there and home. They spent the next three days on coke with friends (each day saying they'd be home that night just to come up with an excuse like their ride left already or something equally ridiculous.)" And finally, here's one that needs absolutely no explanation: "Finding him fucking my roommate in my bed two weeks before the wedding pretty much made up my mind." Was there a moment when you realized your significant other just wasn't the one? Tell me your story in the comments.
