    Evergreen beauty Rekha turns 66

    Rekha’s life was full of controversies since she was a child. She was born as Bhanurekha Ganesan on the 10th of October,1954 to parents Gemini Ganesan and Pushpavalli. Her parents were actors but she did not have any aspirations in this career but her financial conditions compelled her to start acting at a very young age. Rekha did her schooling from Church Park Convent School which happens to be in Chennai. She studied here till she was 13 years and then she left school to pursue her career in acting. 

    She is known for playing strong independent women characters in her films. She is acknowledged for her versatility all over the world. She is one of the outstanding actresses Indian cinema has provided us with. She has proved her acting in films like Khoon Bhari Mang, Biwi ho to Aisi, and many more. She has worked in more than 180 Hindi films and even won a National Film Award and besides this, she has won three Filmfare Awards too. 

    Talking about her personal life, she faced a lot of problems. There were many lows she had gone through in her life. Her father who happens to be a famous actor did not acknowledge her as his daughter during childhood. Once in her interview, she mentioned that her father’s carelessness still rankled and that she had resisted his efforts at reconciliation. 

    As she had no father, she started acting at a very young age because of the financial crisis her family was going through. Her mother did work but the money she earned was not enough to make ends meet so she was forced to leave school and start acting to take care of his family. As she hailed from the South she couldn’t speak Hindi so she faced a lot of problems in having a conversation with her colleagues. She constantly missed her mother who was very ill but couldn’t go and meet her and she was on a strict diet so was facing a lot of problems in adapting herself to new surroundings. In one of her interviews, talking about her struggle days she said, “Bombay was like a jungle, and I had walked in unarmed. It was one of the most frightening phases of my life… I was ignorant of the ways of this new world. Guys did try and take advantage of my vulnerability. I did feel, “What am I doing? I should be in school, having ice-cream, fun with my friends, why am I even forced to work, deprived of normal things that a child should be doing at my age?” Every single day I cried because I had to eat what I didn’t like, wear crazy clothes with sequins and stuff poking into my body. Costume jewelry would give me an absolutely terrible allergy. Hair spray wouldn’t go off for days even despite all my washing. I was pushed, literally dragged from one studio to another. A terrible thing to do to a 13-year-old child.”

    Personal life

    In 1990, she married Delhi-based entrepreneur Mukesh Agarwal who committed suicide after 8 months of marriage. At that time she was targeted by Media houses and even she was called a witch by some people. It was a tipping point in her career and personal life. 

    There were reports that she had married actor Vinod Mehra in 1973 but she denied all those reports by calling Vinod a well-wisher. There were also rumors that she has a love affair with Amitabh Bachchan because their chemistry was loved by the audiences a lot. They gave many super hit movies to us. Rekha never accepted this rumor about her. 

    Today the evergreen actress Rekha turns 66 years old. We wish her good health, love, and happiness. Hoping to see her on the big screen soon.

In next, bend your elbows and bring your hands up beside your ears. Then place your palms flat on the ground with your fingers facing your toes. Now try to push yourself up ( you have to put pressure on your legs to keep your body up). As your body comes off the ground, round your back so that your body forms a semi-circle. Straighten your elbows without locking them, and keep your knees slightly bent. And focus your glaze in between your hands. Now keep yourself relax in this position. Now, before letting yourself down first keep your botton on ground first.

    Even in your most busiest schedule atleast try these yoga stretches. Your body will be more relaxed and muscle will be much flexible.

    Main Lead of Movie Teen Patti Becomes the Voice of Amazon in India

    Over the past six years, in America, Amazon Alexa has become a household name, giving the brand a substantial lead in the growing smart-speaker market. Today, more than 85,000 devices incorporate Amazon’s digital assistant, and the company is looking to repeat its success in the Indian Market.

    Bollywood icon Amitabh Bachchan is now Alexa’s first celebrity voice for artificial intelligence in India. Last year, the company announced plans to introduce celebrity voices to their devices via 99-cent upgrades. Amazon uses neural text-to-speech technology that mimics voices and is hopeful that users will enjoy talking to pop culture personalities. 

    Amitabh Bachchan is the first of, hopefully, many Indian celebrities, whose voice Indian users will be able to enjoy. The feature will become available in 2021 via an upgrade. To activate it, a user must say – Alexa, Say Hello to Mr. Amitabh Bachchan. When a user utters those words, the device will begin replying in the voice of the 77-year-old movie star. Simple features such as this one add a dose of amusement to everyday life.

    Bachchan’s Movie Helped Teen Patti Explode Online

    Amitabh Bachchan is as prolific an actor as they come, with more than 200 credits to his name, but most game enthusiasts remember him from his starring role in the 2010 movie, Teen Patti. While the film was not a big hit, it remains a favorite to those that love the game, boosting its popularity with newer generations. In recent times, Teen Patti interest is surging in India and around the world, thanks to movies such as this one and the internet exposing new players to its charm.

    Today, the game is a mainstay at online casinos that feature live table action. Some platforms may offer both the classic version as well as variations of Teen Patti. Seeing as Indians are free to enjoy real money games at offshore online casinos, many are doing just that. Due to smartphone accessibility, playing digital casino games is growing more popular. Teen Patti is just one Indian game available at these sites. Other available games include Andar Bahar and Rummy. Thus, nowadays, when people want to play traditional Indian card games for real money, they have a viable alternative to land-based casinos.

    and more. The Bollywood offering is continuously expanding, as more Indian movies make their way onto the platform.

    Amazon’s Echo Dot Launches in India, Will It Use Bachchan’s Voice? 

    While Amitabh Bachchan is the first Indian celebrity to lend his voice to an Amazon device, in the US, Hollywood actor Samuel L. Jackson was the one that had that privilege.

    Five most likable Humpty dumplings

    Dumpling is a broad classification for a dish that consists of pieces of dough wrapped around a filling, or of dough with no filling. And behind the birth of this dish, there’s an amazing story.

    It is believed by most experts that the dumplings were invented by the Chinese medical practitioner Zhang Zhongjing, who lived in the Eastern Han Dynasty, from 206 to 220 BC. Actually, as the saying goes, Zhang Zhongjing wrapped mutton, herbs, and chilies in flour, then gave them steam to tie everything together and keep warm. He helped keep people warm because of the winter hardships and the people suffering from cold-related illnesses.
