Who are some great Indians that most people have not heard of?

 We know that Elon Musk is one of the greatest innovators of this Generation, but Let me Introduce to the man Who Saved Elon Musk's Company From Bankruptcy.

In the year 2008, When Tesla was almost ready to get Bankrupt and Elon Musk had to borrow money from His Friends to pay his Living Expenses. Mr. Musk got divorced the same year and everybody thought it was the end of Elon Musk's dreams.

An Indian Came like an Angel and didn't just save Company from Bankruptcy but took it even further. Deepak Ahuja is the man who had saved the Tesla and Elon Musk's dreams.

Deepak Ahuja was born in Mumbai, He graduated in 1985 with a degree in Ceramic Engineering at the Institute of Technology of Banaras Hindu University (BHU) (now IIT BHU Varanasi). Completed his post Graduation from Northwestern University in Evanston, Illinois, and MBA From Tepper School of Business at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

Ahuja was offered the position of Chief Financial Officer when Tesla was almost ready to get Bankrupt and saved the company. In 2015 Ahuja retired from Tesla, and then returned as Chief Financial Officer again in February 2017 to replace Jason Wheeler.

He is known as the man who saved Tesla.

What were some great innings in cricket that were overshadowed by a better innings in the same match?

 Ricky Ponting 164 vs South Africa 2005

This was one of the greatest matches ever played in ODI cricket when for the first time a team managed to score above 400 in ODI. As people were wondering about this mammoth total, the indexpected happened. The total was chased down by SA and for the first time we say a score of 434 chased down successfully.

For Australia, Ricky Ponting played a masterclass innings of 164 runs off 105 balls with 13 fours and 9 sixes ably supported by Gilchrist, Katich and Hussey who all scored fifties. But this outstanding innings was topped by Herschelle Gibbs who scored 175 runs off 111 balls with 21 fours and 7 sixes making another record - highest number of runs scored with boundaries - 126 (record at that time). He was able supported by Graeme Smith and Mark Boucher who scored fifties to end in the last ball chase and SA won over Australia. We saw two great centuries in the same match.

Charles Coventry 194 not out, Zimbabwe vs Bangladesh

Before this match hardly anyone knew who Charles Coventry was. And to be honest his record is pretty poor with only one century and 3 fifties across all formats. He has a batting avergof 24 despite having a not out innings of 194* to his credit. So when he scored these many runs, people were amazed. He broke the record of Saeed Anwar of 194 (Anwar got out while Coventry remained not out so superseding him on the chart). But alas his great innings couldn't seal victory for Zimbabwe as Bangladesh won the match courtesy another major century by Tamim Iqbal who scored 154 runs in the match. Interestingly, except these two players, no other player from both the teams scored a 50 in this match. Both the players were collectively awarded the Man of the Match award but Charles Coventry’s innings remains the highest individual score in a losing cause. Also Tamim Iqbal’s 154 was the highest individual score by a Bangladeshi player at that time (broken by Litton Das now) so in the same match both the teams scored their highest individual scores by a player.

Kumar Sangakara 138* vs India, 2005

Kumar Sangakara scored a brilliant century against India in the 3rd ODI against India, which helped Srilanka post a very good total of 298 runs. In the response India had a poor start as Sachin Tendulkar got out for just 2 runs. And then entered MS DHONI. He was promoted up the order to accelerate the innings. And then we saw the carnage of Dhoni as he belted the Srilankan bowlers out of the park and out of the game. India won the match by 6 wickets and Dhoni sealed the victory with a six. MS Dhoni scored 183* which became the highest score by a wicketkeeper batsman and second highest Individual score from India at that time. The match is remembered for Dhoni’s heroics and Sangakara’s century got overshadowed by Dhoni’s century. Interestingly this was one of the first instances when the wicketkeeper batsman of both the teams scored centuries in the same match.

What are some Kannada movies with great visual effects?

 Visual oriented movies are very rare in Indian cinema

Durga Shakti (1999) and Etu Eduretu (1981) are some of the few kannada horror movies to use visual effects.

Stills from Durga Shakti (1999)

The 1981 Kannada film Etu Eduretu is partially based on real-life events. The core of the movie is inspired by historical folklore regarding a formidable sorcerer or Warlock who allegedly terrorized a rural Indian village with black magic between 1832 and 1910.

Hollywood (2002) is the first Kannada movie based on the subject of robotics.

What are some great advertisements?

 I’ve been a fan of ads since my childhood(remember the Fevicol Bus?) and I go head over heels when it’s witty and strikes a chord. For years Pidilite (Fevicol) had built an unshakable empire in my mind with all those chuckle worthy gigs, but lately, another company has taken over that place, and boy am I impressed.

Disclaimer - 18 plus only. Heck you're gonna read it anyway, I know.


Durex.

Here are a few that are absolute genius from their side, carefully designed for each and every occasion.

  • Getting lucky on Valentine's eve?
  • Dear Julius Caesar, they nailed it better.
  • Subtle, yet bang on.
  • When you burn down your competitors.
  • When even Children's day isn't spared.
  • Apparently, even sports find a place.
  • Christmas presents, anyone? Upside down maybe?
  • When you're money-cautious.
  • When the end of the world didn't come, but you did.
  • And this one, absolute brilliance. And pentastic.
