‘Dilip ki toh life ban gayi,' says choreographer Geeta Kapur as she praises Farah Khan for changing her cook's life

Farah Khan's cook, Dilip, has become a national sensation, thanks to their widely popular YouTube vlogs. With each episode drawing in millions of views, it has quickly become a must-watch for their fans. Choreographer Geeta Kapur, who has worked closely with Farah for years, often assisting on numerous songs, recently spoke about Dilip's rise to fame during a podcast with Hindi Rush. She credited Farah for the spotlight he's receiving. 'Woh ladka Dilip matlab, uski life ban gayi hai, so she is amazing,' (That boy Dilip, I mean, his life has changed… so she (Farah) is amazing.) Geeta said.
Speaking about how secure and generous Farah has always been, especially in her show, where she always gives Dilip more screen time, Geeta added: 'She has always been like that. Kyunki unko lagta hai jo aapke kismat ka hai… jo aapka hai, koi nahi cheen sakta. You will get your due always. Na kum na zyada, jitna aapko milna hai utna hi milega.' (Because she believes that what is written in your destiny… no one can take it away from you. You will always get what you deserve, no less, no more.)

For those unfamiliar, Dilip has also appeared in several commercials alongside Farah and often accompanies her to celebrity guests' homes to shoot episodes featuring them cooking different dishes. Their on-camera chemistry, often with Farah playfully scolding Dilip and him teasing her back, adds a charming and humorous layer to the show.
In fact, more recently, Dilip shared screen space with Shah Rukh Khan and Kiara Advani in an ad directed by Farah. Earlier this month, Farah also took Dilip on his first-ever international trip. At the Mumbai airport, he was seen joyfully distributing sweets to the paparazzi. Farah's YouTube channel continues to grow in popularity, currently boasting 1.71 million subscribers.

Flying Beast freezes as he simulates Air India Flight 171 crash: ‘All you can do is watch the ground come at you'

YouTuber Gaurav Taneja, aka Flying Beast, suggested that overloading might be one of the reasons behind the recent Air India Flight 171 crash in Ahmedabad, which claimed the lives of 270 people. In a new video posted on his YouTube channel, which has nearly 10 million subscribers, he simulated the crash under different settings, and debunked several theories around it. At first, he had suggested that a dual engine failure could be the only reason behind a Boeing 787 Dreamliner crashing in the manner that Flight 171 did. In the new video, he seemed to point in the direction of pilot error, combined with several other issues. Carrying out further analysis of the dual engine failure theory, he conducted a simulation. 'I was fixated on this reason until today evening. In the sim, everything was falling into place. After takeoff, we killed both engines at 100 feet,' he said, adding that he made the aircraft 'a little heavy'. He said, 'Usually, this aircraft is 62 tonnes, but considering that it was a long flight to London, I've made it 70 tonnes.' After conducting the first simulation, he said, 'It was scary. I froze. There was nothing that you could do. What could you do? All you can do is pray and watch the ground come at you.' Also read – Gaurav Taneja, aka Flying Beast, reveals 'every flight has snags' but airlines have 'habit' of ignoring safety issues Citing the video of the crash, he said that the aircraft's nose seemed to tilt up in the moments ahead of the crash, which suggests that the pilot made a last-ditch effort to pull up. 'It's very scary. You have 10 seconds, basically. You can do nothing. You pull the nose up to avoid a heavy impact, and perhaps save a few lives on the ground. It fell like a rock on the ground,' he said. He conducted another simulation with an even heavier aircraft, and discovered that, like Flight 171, it didn't take off at the normal stage. 'I was terrified, I could see the runway about to end. 'Because of the late liftoff, the pilots' were too distracted to pull the landing gear up,' he speculated. In the same video, Taneja suggested that the pilots aboard the aircraft might've been startled when the first engine failed during takeoff, and were left with no choice but to proceed because the engine failure happened after the point of no return on the runway. Once the aircraft was airborne, they mistakenly killed the second engine, and forgot to pull the landing gear up. Previously, Taneja had defended the pilots against any criticism, saying that they are the easiest people to blame in such events, because they aren't around to defend themselves. He has also said that both engines of a Boeing 787 failing is practically unheard of. He said, 'They were distracted. They were supposed to pull up the landing gear at around 100 feet. Now, listen carefully. They climbed for 100-150 feet with a damaged engine, and forgot to pull the landing gear up. In the Boeing 787, pilots are required to follow 'memory items' in the event of an engine failure. When they hit 400 feet, the pilot 'flying' pulled the thrust idle switch for the faulty engine, and the pilot 'monitoring' pulled the fuel control switch off for the wrong engine… One engine was damaged on the ground, the other engine they killed themselves.' In the wake of several flight cancellations following the Flight 171 disaster on June 12, Taneja praised pilots for putting their foot down and refusing to fly potentially unsafe machines. On Saturday, the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) ordered immediate action against three senior Air India officials following 'serious and repeated violations,' the Hindustan Times reported.

Virat Kohli and Genelia D'souza's 'suggestive' airplane ad created a huge controversy, was banned for THIS reason

Did you know that Virat Kohli and Genelia D'souza featured in a commercial together. This ad saw them in a plane where Virat played a pilot and Genelia was an airhostess. The ad very subtly and suggestively conveyed the pilot and airhostess having sex while actually risking the lives of the passengers. The ad also suggested that the autopilot mode was introduced by airlines just so that the crew members could indulge in such activities. As Genelia makes her comeback on screen after a while with 'Sitaare Zameen Par', this ad has now gone viral on Reddit. A user shared a photo of the commercial and wrote, "The ad of Genelia and Virat was so controversial that it got banned within its release." The video was reportedly banned as it showed people's lives being put in danger for the sake of rumour. The aviation professionals also took offence and felt it was disrespectful to their industry and many pilots and air hostesses. The ad was instantly banned from Indian television but still exists on Youtube. Here's how Reddit users reacted to it now. A person said, "Abhi dekha, ban hone jaisa tha." Another user said, "How did Genelia agree to this, considering the family she was about to get married into?" A person referred to Ranbir Kapoor's character Ranvijay in 'Animal' and said, "Did it earlier than Ranvijay." Many fans of Genelia and Virat though found them quite good looking in this ad. Meanwhile, at the moment, Genelia is getting a lot of love for her role in 'Sitaare Zameen Par' and fans are happy to see her back on-screen.
