Bhojpuri actor Vijay Khare, famous for his role as Gabbar Singh, passes away
Vijay Khare passed away at 4 AM today, December 15. Known widely for his iconic portrayal of Gabbar Singh, Khare was a well-known and respected name in the Bhojpuri film industry. His demise comes after a period of health struggles, during which he was receiving treatment at Cauvery Hospital in Bangalore. Although his condition had reportedly stabilised, his health took a sudden downturn, leading to his untimely passing. Fans and colleagues across the industry mourned the loss of a versatile actor who made his mark in over 200 Bhojpuri films throughout his illustrious career. Originally hailing from Muzaffarpur, Bihar, Vijay Khare later moved to Mumbai, where he founded the Vijay Khare Academy, a prominent acting school. Khare’s remarkable career spanned decades, with memorable performances in films like Raijzada (1976), Ganga Kinare Mora Gaon (1983), and Hamra Se Biyaah Karba (2003). His powerful on-screen presence and nuanced acting won him widespread acclaim from both fans and the film fraternity.

Scared of tennis? Too busy for golf? Pick pickleball!
Corporate India has a new obsession: pickleball. What is it? Here's what I think it is. Several middle-aged men and women, too afraid of tennis, too busy for golf, decide they want to hit something that gives the illusion of running around without having to do so. It's the best answer to a 40-something's existential crisis, diverting thoughts of violence, divorce, and forcing an IB school on your second-born — probably named Amaiyrraah, with a silent h — onto your Bangalore housing society's newly constructed court, which was previously a 'Designated EV Charging Area to Come'. We won't delve into the armtwisting in the society group, where die-hard players posted YouTube videos showcasing how the sport was conquering America, thereby succeeding in the impossible: silencing the society chairman uncle who couldn't comprehend the passion, this 'non-sport' sport, and, by default, this India. The game is designed so cleverly that it is beyond embarrassment. Just the right amount of hip movement without needing an orthopaedic on standby. Across the boundary from childishness, but not quite, as an athlete would define it, sport.

Techie shares four reasons why he rejected double salary offer from global IT giant
Bangalore-based startup shared their decision to turn down a lucrative job offer from a global tech giant. The post detailed the challenges and considerations behind the decision, offering a glimpse into the complexities of career choices and work freedom in the tech world. The professional, a Product Lead at the startup, revealed that they were offered a significant salary hike of Rs 36 LPA plus stock options after a rigorous interview process consisting of seven rounds, including a demanding design challenge. Despite the financial appeal, the individual identified key concerns during the interviews, such as the limited scope of the role, a rigid design system, a lack of innovation in the product, and signs of burnout among team members. These red flags led them to decline the offer, valuing creative freedom and ownership of their work over monetary gains. According to the individual, the startup environment where the professional is currently employed is intense and allows the individual to take charge of the entire design system and product experience. Although it often involves shipping features quickly and working long hours, including weekends, the level of autonomy and the opportunity to influence the product's direction was deemed more fulfilling than the constraints perceived in the corporate role.
