From a home theatre boasting over 14,500 films to a grand piano, here's a tour of Adnan Sami's home

When you enter Adnan Sami's residence, the first thing you're greeted with is not a traditional hello—but a password. 'Do you have the password?' he asks. 'What is the password?' his guest stumbles. With a cheeky smile, Adnan responds, 'I would like to come in.' The doors swing open, revealing a house that feels more like a luxury airport lounge than a conventional home. 'It's anything but business,' he chuckles. Sami's home mirrors the man himself—larger-than-life, opulent, but deeply personal. As the camera pans around, we are shown his favourite corner—marked by an affectionate photograph of his daughter, Medina, from her first birthday. 'It's a very special moment,' he says, his voice tinged with warmth. Alongside sits a set of exclusive B&O speakers—'75th anniversary edition,' he notes proudly, the music aficionado in him shining through. The tour is less of a display and more of a window into Adnan's life—his cherished memories, passions, and quirky sense of humour. There's a home theatre boasting over 14,500 films. 'Movies are my passion,' he says, guiding the camera past gaming consoles. 'I go through phases… Right now I'm not playing, but my daughter is playing all the time.' Playfully, he admits, 'If I do [play], I make sure I don't win!' And then, we reach the piano. 'You're acknowledged as one of the fastest piano players on the planet,' the host prompts. Sami plays something cool and spontaneous, laughing, 'Give or take a decade—you could learn this too!' But amid the music and the warmth, the conversation turns unexpectedly poignant. The singer recalls a grim prognosis from a doctor years ago. 'I was told I had six months to live. My lifestyle was killing me.' At nearly 230 kilos, Adnan was told his parents might find him dead in a hotel room. 'I couldn't lie down to sleep. I used to sleep sitting up, like you're sitting right now.' Drivers would discreetly lift his legs into cars. 'People would say I was cute, golu molu… I'm like excuse me, you have no idea.' Sami speaks of the emotional and physical turmoil with remarkable clarity. 'It was a mountain to climb… You don't start thinking I'll lose 160 kilos. You aim for ten and go from there.' Finally, he serenades the host, shares brownie anecdotes from his 'full bloom' days, critiques the idea of 'extra virgin oil,' and rounds off with a rapid-fire quiz. When asked what he'd change about his timeless hit Lift Kara De to suit Gen Z, he replies simply, 'I wouldn't change a thing. They still sing it. Why fix what isn't broken?'

'Cristiano Ronaldo or Lionel Messi...': Google CEO Sundar Pichai picks his favourite

Google CEO Sundar Pichai has weighed in on one of football's most enduring debates, "Messi or Ronaldo"? The top executive has named Lionel Messi as the greatest player of all time though he also said that his son is a Cristiano Ronaldo fan. Speaking on a recent podcast, Pichai offered a candid and personal take, even contrasting Messi's genius with the rigorous excellence of Cristiano Ronaldo. When directly asked to settle the "Messi or Ronaldo, or Pele, or Maradona" question, Pichai, with a chuckle, declared Messi stands alone. Pichai acknowledged the internal dynamic of his own household, admitting, "It's been interesting, 'cause my son is a big Cristiano Ronaldo fan, and so we've had to watch El Classicos together, you know, with that dynamic in there." "I so admire CR7's, I mean, I've never seen an athlete more committed to that kind of excellence, and so he's one of the all time greats. But you know, for me, Messi is it ," Pichai added. He also shared an instance when he went to watch Messi play. "Had the chance to see him a couple weeks ago, he played in San Jose, so against the Quakes, so I went to see it, see the game. Was a fan, had good seats, knew where he would play in the second half, hopefully. And even at his age, just watching him when he gets the ball, that movement, you know, you're right, that special quality, it's tough to describe, but you feel it when you see it," he said. Pichai says leading Google is like coaching Barcelona or Real Madrid In the same podcast, Pichai likened leading Google as coaching Real Madrid or Barcelona. When asked about the challenging period, Pichai pointed to his ability to "tune out noise," comparing it to managing a top-tier sports team. "Running Google, you may as well be coaching Barcelona or Real Madrid," Pichai stated, acknowledging that "you have a bad season."
