News1812-06-2025

Here is the release date of Echo Valley, when and when to watch the suspenseful thriller and its intriguing plot.
Julianne Moore and Sydney Sweeney's 2025 American thriller film Echo Valley is set to stream on the OTT platform to cater to a larger section of the audience worldwide. Directed by BAFTA Award winner Michael Pearce, the suspenseful mother-daughter thriller previously had a limited theatrical release in the United States on June 6, offering a rollercoaster ride of emotions while witnessing the movie to a selected number of viewers. Now, the psychological thriller is arriving on Apple TV+ this week.
The tense and emotional mother-daughter relationship portrayed by Academy Award winner Julianne Moore and Emmy Award nominee Sydney Sweeney, which has been garnering positive to strong reactions from viewers ever since the release of its trailer, is set for its OTT debut. The movie exploring a range of emotions will hit Apple TV+ tomorrow, June 13.
Talking about the 2-minute 35-second trailer of the Apple Originals Films, which was released a month back, it showcased how Kate Garrett (Julianne Moore), a fierce mother, comes to the help of her daughter, Claire Garrett (Sydney Sweeney). It was when the latter arrived at the former's farmhouse in Pennsylvania in a completely shaken condition.
Covered in blood stains, reportedly from the killing of her boyfriend, who tried to force her into something, Claire even wraps Kate in the darkness of the morally grey territory. The story then revolves around the mother-daughter duo and how Kate takes up all hardships in order to 'take care" of the situation. The trailer video ends with a question that asks how far one would go to protect one's family – 'Would you risk everything?"
The Cast And Crew Of Echo Valley
From the writer of Mare of Easttown and Emmy nominee Brad Ingelsby, Echo Valley is backed by a team of eminent A-listers, including Ridley Scott, Michael Pruss, Kevin J. Walsh and Ingelsby himself. The psychological thriller also stars Domhnall Gleeson, Kyle MacLachlan and Fiona Shaw, Edmund Donovan, Albert Jones, among others in supporting roles. Benjamin Kracun is credited for the creative cinematography of the movie while the editing is done by Maya Maffioli.

National Selfie Day 2025: Origins, Fun Facts, How To Celebrate And Tips For Taking The Perfect Selfie

Last Updated: National Selfie Day 2025: National Selfie Day, celebrated every year on June 21, is all about capturing your best self. National Selfie Day 2025: Are you someone who's always ready with your phone to snap a selfie? No matter where you are or what you're wearing, all you need is a quick hair check, the right angle, and your signature pose. Well, here's something exciting—you actually get a whole day to celebrate yourself and your love for selfies. National Selfie Day, celebrated every year on June 21 and coinciding with International Yoga Day, is all about capturing your best self. But how did this day come to be? Let's dive into its origins, discover some fun facts, and explore creative ways to celebrate it. Plus, we've got some secret tips to help you nail that perfect selfie angle. National Selfie Day 2025: Origins The film camera was invented in 1885 and since then humans have always been fascinated by capturing their own image. When digital photography became popular in the 1990s and early 2000s, it made taking self-portraits easier and affordable than using film cameras. Then, around 2005, camera phones, digital cameras, and social media all came together and that's when the 'selfie" became more than just a new word. It turned into a global craze. The credit for the first selfie goes to Robert Cornelius, an American chemist and early photography pioneer. In 1839, he used the daguerreotype method to capture the first intentional self-portrait, which took around 10–15 minutes to develop. The selfie has evolved as quickly as photography itself, with many artists shaping and redefining self-portraiture over the past 181 years. From lesser-known yet highly talented figures like Vivian Maier to pop culture faces like Andy Warhol, tracing the roots of today's selfie takes us on a fascinating journey through history. However, it wasn't until the early 2000s that photography and therefore selfies, became widely accessible to the public with the arrival of the first camera phones. Following the rising trend in 2014, the BBC officially declared June 21 as National Selfie Day. Soon after, the Oxford English Dictionary added the word 'selfie' to its list of entries. National Selfie Day 2025: Fun Facts Superstitions about selfies: Yes, in some cultures, people believe selfies can capture more than just your image—possibly even a piece of your soul. This belief existed long before photography but still lingers today. How do astronauts take selfies in space?: Astronauts get creative by using reflective visors on their helmets or extending cameras to capture themselves with Earth or space as the backdrop. These photos spark wonder and bring people closer to space exploration. Selfie got an award: You will be surprised to know that 'Selfie" was 2013's word of the year. How to Celebrate National Selfie Day 2025 National Selfie Day 2025: Tips for Taking the Perfect Selfie Find the Right Light: Use natural light or face a light source to avoid harsh shadows and brighten your selfie. Use a Selfie Stick: Capture wider frames and better group shots with the help of a selfie stick. Strike a Pose: Go beyond a smile—use props or action shots to show your personality. Embrace Filters Wisely: Use subtle filters to enhance your selfie without over-editing. Capture Candid Moments: Natural, unposed selfies often tell the most genuine stories. Experiment with Angles: Try different angles and poses to find your most flattering look. So, it's time to switch on your front camera and snap a fantastic selfie that captures your best self.

From 'English' vegetables to desi roots

Agencies Indian vegetables, like regional languages, were long regarded as uncool and rejected in favour of "English" staples such as carrots, beans and cauliflower. "Indian" dishes promoted by the culinary devis of the 1960s and 1970s rather than the rustic staples of 'native places' became the hallmark of upward mobility and even homogeneity, especially in the growing metros. By the second decade of the 21st century we were well on the way to "One India, One Cuisine".Then, deracinated urban classes began to experience a yearning for their roots, aided by a growing pride in all things desi. Even as they lived out their American dream in suburban condominium complexes in Gurgaon or Goregaon, Indians began to show interest in eating local and understanding rural, subaltern culinary histories. That's also when social media happened, and suddenly their new-found appetite for culinary legacy could be sated by a myriad of content providers. This week I was fascinated by a video of a chirpy, toothless Bengali village granny with wispy grey hair tied in a bun and a creased cotton saree wrapped in the old-fashioned 'aatpoure' style, cooking a dish made with the green stem of the elephant yam and small shrimps, on a wood-fired terracotta chulha. Clearly her grandson (the cameraman) realised that gas cylinders which her family could access via the PM's Ujjwala Yojana would have spoiled the bucolic tableau! A well-used grinding stone, a sharp bonti (Bengal's traditional curved iron blade set on a wooden base), a few stainless steel and plastic utensils, and a spatula comprised her kitchen kit, set under a palm-leaf thatched shelter with a lovely view of greenery and grey rain clouds. No ingredient labels, no kitchen aid brands, no product placements. Just weather-worn fingers expertly slicing, dicing, grinding and stirring while she cheerfully answered her grandson's questions. The dish she made had minimal oil and spices: just green chilli-yellow mustard seed paste, poppy seed paste, nigella seeds and turmeric; no onion-garlic-ginger, no garam masala. Most people do not know this facet of homestyle Bengali cooking, given the decades of publicity for the stereotypical wedding fare of rich, oily kalias and kosha mangsho. She even dispelled her grandson's fear that the stem would give him an itchy throat, which sometimes happens with yams. Fear is the reason most cityslickers avoided eating shoots, roots, leaves and all 'unknown' desi ingredients till a new interest in rustic fare made them set aside apprehensions. Most took a cue, of course, from the West's foraged food craze. Mushrooms have an international appeal and yams do not, so Indian elites were willing to profess a liking for fungi even if they ranged from pricey truffles and morels to deathcaps, but steered clear of potentially itchy tubers. Until now! Earlier this month, an Indian restaurant in New York, helmed by a chef who unapologetically presents the humble ingredients but robust flavours of his Tamil village, was adjudged the best eatery in the Big Apple. In India, restaurant cuisine has moved beyond Mughlai and other mainstream genres to brilliant riffs by star chefs, and even homestyle regional cuisines by home cooks. Truly rural flavours, however, have remained largely untasted in cities barring a few pop-ups. But now social media has given rural Indians the chance to take their no-fuss, no-waste, hyper-seasonal and hyper-local food to far-away audiences. I found more rural Bengali grannies with thousands of followers posting cooking videos on social media with a little help from grandkids, like plump 'nonnas' popularised rustic Italian cooking. Today, rural India's cool, deft paatis, ajis and thammas are doing the same. Thanks to them we will remain "One India, Many Cuisines".
