Socialite and CEO of Kylie Cosmetics Kylie Jenner was a guest at the Schiaparelli ss23 couture show, while wearing a gown that had a huge lion head attached to it.

Speaking to Express Tribune, the ‘Joyland’ team confirmed the report that the Oscar-shortlisted film is set to release in India and other countries as well. This news comes on the heels of the cancellation of the Indian release of The Legend of Maula Jatt after the film faced opposition by BJP politicians. Joyland will be the second Pakistani film to release in India, nearly a decade after Shoaib Mansoor’s Bol was released in the country.
Despite the ban in Punjab and backlash from religous clerics, the film is among the shortlisted films for the ‘Best International Film’ category for the Academy Awards. The final list of nominations will be announced on 24th January, with the final ceremony to be held on 12th March.
Speaking to CNN, Sadiq said that films like Joyland were important because they provided a realistic depiction of Pakistan:
“What’s different in Joyland than perhaps all the other Pakistani films is that it is the most realistic depiction of our society without romanticising any aspect of it. It’s not something that people are used to seeing, that is, a reflection of yourself – that can be haunting but also uncomfortable.”
The filmmaker added, “For me, seeing a film set in Pakistan about patriarchy and gender roles and the impact of those on human beings was important.”

Only 249 of the 488 applications for visas to travel to Ajmer Sharif, the shrine of famed Sufi saint Moinuddin Chishti in Rajasthan, were accepted by India, Express Tribune has reported.
Over 200 Pakistani pilgrims were prevented from paying respects to the Sufi saint, according to a spokeswoman for the Ministry of Religious Affairs and Interfaith Harmony.
The official stated that all zaireen have received SMS instructions to travel to Lahore, where they will board their flight to India today (Tuesday). Despite the coronavirus no longer being a valid reason to bar International travel, India spent the majority of last year prohibiting Muslim visitors from Pakistan from visiting their country for religious reasons.

According to recent research by a professor at the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School, the chatbot GPT-3, powered by artificial intelligence, was successful in passing the program’s final exam for the Master of Business Administration (MBA) degree.
Professor Christian Terwiesch, who wrote the research paper “Would Chat GPT3 Get a Wharton MBA?” A Prediction Based on Its Performance in the Operations Management Course,” claimed that the bot scored between a B- and B in the exam.
The bot’s score shows its “remarkable ability to automate some of the skills of highly compensated knowledge workers in general and specifically the knowledge workers in the jobs held by MBA graduates, including analysts, managers, and consultants,” according to Terwiesch.
The AI bot did an “amazing job at basic operations management and process analysis questions, including those that are based on case studies,” Terwiesch wrote in the paper, which was published on January 17. He also said the bot’s answers were “excellent.”
The bot is also “remarkably good at modifying its answers in response to human hints,” he concluded.
The results of Terwiesch’s research come as schools become more worried that AI chatbots may encourage cheating. Despite the fact that chatbots are not a recent invention, ChatGPT took off on social media in late 2022. The New York City Department of Education announced earlier this month that ChatGPT would no longer be allowed on any equipment or networks in its schools.
The majority of the argument is centered on how difficult it is to differentiate between human responses and ChatGPT’s conversational speech style and cohesive, topical response style.
Experts in artificial intelligence and education have admitted that ChatGPT and other such bots may eventually harm education. However, other educators and professionals said in recent interviews that they weren’t worried just yet.
The GPT-3 model utilised in the study seems to be an older sibling of the most recent ChatGPT bot, which has generated debate among academics and AI professionals.
ChatGPT, the newest version, “is fine-tuned from a model in the GPT-3.5 series,” according to OpenAI’s website.
While Chat GPT3’s results were impressive, Terwiesch noted that Chat GPT3 “at times makes surprising mistakes in relatively simple calculations at the level of 6th-grade math.”
According to NDTV, the present version of Chat GPT is “not capable of handling more advanced process analysis questions, even when they are based on fairly standard templates,” Terwiesch added. “This includes process flows with multiple products and problems with stochastic effects such as demand variability.”
However, Terwiesch said ChatGPT3’s performance on the test has “important implications for business school education, including the need for exam policies, curriculum design focusing on collaboration between humans and AI, opportunities to simulate real-world decision-making processes, the need to teach creative problem solving, improved teaching productivity, and more.”
The Rawalpindi pitch’s demerit point after the ICC World Test Championship series between Pakistan and England’s first game has now been rescinded.
Following a Pakistan Cricket Board appeal, the decision was made. After the first Test of the series in early December, the pitch grade at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium was deemed to be “below average.”
England won the Test by 74 runs after some exciting batting. The pitch was later described as “embarrassing” by PCB Chairman Ramiz Raja, and Andy Pycroft of the Emirates ICC Elite Panel of Match Referees agreed.
“It was a very flat pitch which gave almost no assistance to any type of bowler,” Pycroft said. “That was the main reason why batters scored very fast and both sides posted huge totals.
“The pitch hardly deteriorated during the course of the match. Since there was very little in it for the bowlers, I found the pitch to be ‘below average’ as per the ICC guidelines.”
The ICC appeal panel, however, came to the unanimous conclusion that the pitch had some “redeeming features” after studying the Test Match film, including the fact that a result was feasible and that 37 out of 39 wickets were taken.
The appeal panel concluded that the pitch did not deserve the “below average” grade it had previously received.
The venue had previously faced the possibility of having its right to hold international cricket matches suspended due to the number of demerit points it had received.
A father shot his 18-year-old daughter in Vano Ghari village of Sardaryab, Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa after a video of her dancing went viral on social media.

She further said that her husband killed their daughter when someone he met taunted him about the video.
The mother has claimed that the murdered girl worked as a domestic helper for a wealthy family in Islamabad, where another male from Swat also resided. The man allegedly proposed to the woman, but she declined because she was already engaged.
She stated that after the youngster tried to blackmail her and failed, he posted a video of her dancing on social media with a fake ID as retaliation. She claimed that they had made the decision to file an FIR in Islamabad against the man on the day the incident occured.
Bollywood actresses Jacqueline Fernandez and Nora Fatehi have recorded fresh statements to Delhi’s Patiala House Court with regard to their alleged involvement in the conman Sukesh Chandrashekhar’s INR 200 crore exhortation case.
The actresses have made some shocking allegations against the conman and revealed how he introduced himself and all promises he made during their alleged relationship with him.
The conman’s money laundering case has been making headlines for quite some time now. It recently saw names of many other celebs like Nikki Tamboli, Chahatt Khanna, and others emerging.
Now in a recent development, Nora Fatehi and Jacqueline Fernandez accused the conman Sukesh Chandrashekhar of lying to them. India Today has accessed the actresses’ statements in the extortion case.
As reported by the portal, Nora Fatehi said in a statement, “Many actresses are dying to be taken care of by Sukesh. Initially, I did not know who Sukesh was. Later, I thought he used to work at a company called LS Corporation. I neither had any personal contact nor did I ever have any conversations with him. I had no clue about this and I never met him. The only time I saw him was when the ED confronted me with him at its office.”
While Jacqueline Fernandez said in her testimony that Sukesh Chandrashekhar “played with my emotions and made my life hell.” She said, “Sukesh misled me, and ruined my career and my livelihood. “Pinky Irani (the woman who introduced the actor to the conman) convinced my makeup artist, Shaan Muthathil, that he (Chandrashekhar) was an important official from the Home Ministry.”
Jacqueline further said, “He introduced himself as the owner of Sun TV and claimed J Jayalalitha was his aunt. Chandrashekhar said he was a big fan, and said I should do films in South India too, and as the owner of Sun TV, they had many projects lined up. We should try to work together in south Indian movies. He never mentioned he was calling from jail or that he was in jail. He used to call from one corner with a curtain and a sofa in the background.”
“He did not contact me after August 8, 2021, and I later got to know he was arrested for impersonating senior government officials of the Home Ministry and the law ministry. Pinky Irani always had an intention of cheating me. I was fooled by Shekhar (the name used by the conman to interact with the actor). At the time I got to know about Shekhar’s criminal background, I got to know that his real name is Sukesh. Pinky was aware of Shekhar’s activity and background. But she never disclosed this to me.”
Last year, ED’s first chargesheet mentioned that Chandrashekar gave Fernandez gifts worth over INR 5 crore from the sum he swindled. It has named the actor as an accused, alleging that she was aware that the gifts were bought from the proceeds of the crime.
“Sukesh Chandrasekhar had given various gifts worth INR 5.71 crore to Jacqueline Fernandez from the proceeds of crime generated by criminal activities including extortion. “Chandrasekhar had put Pinky Irani, his long-time associate, and co-accused in this case to deliver the said gifts to her,” the ED had then said in a statement.
Meanwhile, Jacqueline’s pictures with the conman got leaked, she shared a long note on her Instagram account and requested the media and her fans to not circulate her intimate pictures with Sukesh.
She wrote, “This country and its people have always given me tremendous love and respect. This includes my friends from the media, from whom I have learned a lot. I am currently going through a rough patch but I am sure that my friends and fans will see me through it. It is with this trust that I would request my media friends to not circulate images of a nature that intrude my privacy and personal space. You would not do this to your own loved ones, am sure you would not do this to me either. Hoping that justice and good sense prevails. Thank you.”
Chandrashekhar had claimed that he was in a relationship with the actress. Sukesh is a Bengaluru inhabitant who is currently the subject of 15 FIRs. He was previously accused of defrauding people in Bengaluru and Chennai out of numerous crores. He is currently detained in Tihar Jail in Delhi.
After much media speculation, Indian cricketer KL Rahul and Bollywood actor Athiya Shetty tied the knot today in an intimate ceremony held at her father, Suniel Shetty’s Khandala farmhouse on Monday.
Putting an end to fans’ wait, the couple took to Instagram to share the first photos as husband and wife. Safe to say, the newlyweds radiated an unmissable glow and happiness in the pictures.
“Today, with our most loved ones, we got married in the home that’s given us immense joy and serenity. With a heart full of gratitude and love, we seek your blessings on this journey of togetherness,” they captioned the post, along with a quote saying, “In your light, I learn how to love…”
For the nuptials, Athiya wore a blush pink chikankari lehenga by designer Anamika Khanna, featuring floral embellishments and embroidery all over. It was paired with a matching full-sleeved blouse featuring a sweetheart neckline and an uneven hemline, along with a semi-sheer dupatta. To accessorise the look, the bride opted for a heavy stone-studded choker with matching dangling earrings, a maang tikka, and dainty kaleerey. Athiya kept it minimal with her makeup to let the bridal glow do the talking.
Rahul, on the other hand, complemented Athiya in an ivory sherwani, also by Khanna, complete with an embroidered long overcoat and a dupatta worn around his neck. His wedding look was completed with a layered emerald neckpiece.
Also spotted were the bride’s family members – father Suneil and brother Ahan – who made heads turn in ethnic ensembles. While Suneil wore a chocolate-brown kurta-dhoti set with a layered stone-studded neckpiece and brown flats, Ahan kept it dapper in a white sherwani set complete with a matching long coat and brown juttis.
Reportedly, KL Rahul and Athiya first started dating in 2019 after being set up by one of their common friends. The same year, they seemingly made their relationship Instagram official, sending the internet into a frenzy. They also went to visit Thailand to ring in the New Year 2020 together.
Also, despite the couple keeping it low-key, their mushy social media pictures and several pap spottings were enough to make the fans root for them. Of late, Athiya can be seen accompanying Rahul to his overseas tours and the Shettys are often spotted enthusiastically cheering for the cricketer from the stands.
