Amid the New Year cheer, Amir Khan’s family has an additional reason to celebrate, as his daughter today marks 2 years of marital bliss with husband Nupur Shikhare. The special day certainly demanded a special post, and husband Nupur Shikhare made sure of it. Commemorating their second anniversary, Nupur Shikhare shared a 90s-style marriage video, which gained both love and laughter from his wife, Ira, and his followers on the gram.

Nupur Shikhare’s 90s-style adaptation of wedding pictures and special moments

Nupur shared a special video on their social media handle, which featured pictures from their wedding, as well as moments from their relationship. What made the video more special is that it has been curated in a 90s style. One can see their pictures revolving with vivid backgrounds. He also used Kumar Sanu’s famous 90s song ‘Ek Sanam Chahiye Aashiqui Ke Liye.’ Along with the same, Nupur wrote a beautiful message that read, “Happy 2nd Anniversary….Congratulations @khan.ira for successfully completing two years of being married to me, you are very brave…I love you #love #anniversary.”Check out the video here:

Ira Khan reciprocates the love

Reacting to the video, Ira Khan gave a playful reply. He hilariously commented, “It’s the easiest, most fun, and satisfying thing I’ve experienced. This video on the other hand…..” Below the same post, in another comment, Ira wrote, “love you @nupur.shikhare.” To this, the loving husband replied with red heart emoticons.However, if you feel the fun and the story end here; appartanly not. Ira also shared the same reel on her Instagram story and wrote, “This is what you get when you marry a 40 year old.”

In another story following it, Ira explained how the reel was funny. She confessed that many people of her generation and younger might not get it in the first go, but apparently, this is how wedding videos looked in the 90s. She was thus shown this clip with utter excitement, which initially she failed to understand.

NEW DELHI: In a major move to strengthen patient safety, India has, for the first time, brought blood components used in transfusions under uniform pharmacopoeial standards, tightening regulatory oversight of blood banks and transfusion services nationwide. The step is accompanied by stricter quality specifications for widely used medicines—from tuberculosis and diabetes drugs to cancer therapies—aimed at curbing risks from unsafe blood products and substandard medicines.Blood transfusion involves giving whole blood or specific blood components into a patient’s vein to replace blood lost due to injury, surgery or illness, and is essential for treating conditions such as severe anaemia, major surgery, trauma, cancer care, childbirth complications and inherited blood disorders.The measures were formalised with the release of Indian Pharmacopoeia 2026, India’s official book of drug standards, by Union health and family welfare and chemicals and fertilisers minister JP Nadda at the Dr Ambedkar International Centre on Friday.Indian Pharmacopoeia (IP) standards are legally enforceable in India and accepted in courts, with regulators using them to ensure drug quality. The Indian Pharmacopoeia Commission (IPC), an autonomous body under the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, sets and regularly updates these standards under the Drugs and Cosmetics Act, 1940 and Rules, 1945.Published by the Indian Pharmacopoeia Commission on behalf of the Ministry of health and family welfare, the Pharmacopoeia lays down authoritative and legally enforceable standards under the Drugs and Cosmetics Act, 1940. These standards form the basis for licensing, inspection and distribution of medicines across the country.A major regulatory expansion in the 10th edition is the first-time inclusion of 20 monographs for blood components used in transfusion medicine, bringing blood banks and hospital transfusion services under clearer and more consistent oversight—an important safeguard for surgeries, trauma care and maternal health.The monographs cover standards for whole blood and blood components, including whole blood (standard and irradiated); a wide range of red cell products (packed, additive solution, leucodepleted, buffy coat removed, cryopreserved and washed RBCs); plasma components such as fresh frozen plasma (from whole blood and apheresis), cryoprecipitate and cryo-poor plasma; platelet products including PRP, pooled and random donor platelets, buffy coat and apheresis-derived platelets (including additive solution and double units); and granulocyte components obtained through apheresis or buffy coat pooling.The edition also tightens the country’s drug safety framework by adding 121 new drug standards, taking the total number of monographs to 3,340. Each monograph specifies how a medicine must be manufactured, tested, stored and labelled, strengthening regulators’ ability to act against sub-standard or unsafe products.A key public-interest gain is the expanded and sharper coverage of medicines used under national health programmes. Drugs for tuberculosis, diabetes and cancer—relied upon by millions for long-term treatment—will now be subject to more uniform quality checks, a critical safeguard for patients dependent on public healthcare systems.Officials said the revised standards will also strengthen safety surveillance. Highlighting the progress of the Pharmacovigilance Programme of India (PvPI) under the IPC, Nadda said India—ranked 123rd globally during 2009–2014 in contributions to the World Health Organization’s pharmacovigilance database—has now climbed to 8th position worldwide in 2025, reflecting faster reporting of adverse drug reactions and stronger regulatory action.With public healthcare bearing the bulk of the country’s disease burden, Indian Pharmacopoeia 2026 is expected to directly strengthen blood safety, improve medicine quality and enhance patient protection across the healthcare system.

Perplexity CEO Aravind Srinivas has issued a warning: the future of artificial intelligence (AI) may not be in the cloud, which means that massive, energy-hungry data centres for which tech giants pouring billions of dollars may become irrelevant. He said that the AI power will be in users’ pockets with silicon that powers their devices, capable of running sophisticated LLMs.In an interview, Srinivas argued that the rise of high-performance, on-device AI is the biggest existential threat to the centralised infrastructure which is currently dominating the tech industry.“Well, the the biggest threat to a data centre is if the intelligence can be packed locally on a chip that’s running on the device and then there’s no need to inference all of it on like one centralized data center. It becomes more decentralized and even better if the models that are coming along with the chip are are things that adapt to you,” Srinivas said.“And by the way, you don’t even you may not even need that for adaptation to you. It could just be um data that lives on your computer or your device um that can be retrieved on the fly,” he added.

Perplextiy CEO explaines benefits of moving AI from cloud to machines

Srinivas postulated multiple benefits of moving AI from the cloud to the device. He said that the processing will happen instantly on the device, removing the delay of sending data to a remote server. Having AI on machine will ensure that personal data never leaves the user’s hardware. Thirdly, Srinivas compared local AI to having a “digital brain” that lives with the user, learning and evolving based on their specific habits.“That way you don’t have to repeat it. That’s your intelligence. You own it. It’s your brain. Then that really disrupts the whole data centre industry like it doesn’t make sense to spend all this money 500 billion 5 trillion whatever on building all the centralised data centres across the world that do a lot of the intelligence workloads for people. This is the question. This is whatever it’s a $10 trillion question, hundred trillion dollar question,” he explained.“That’s not yet happened. No one’s actually shipped a model that can be packaged on your computer, a very efficient chip locally and then it’s very intelligent enough that it can complete tasks reliably. That’s not yet happened. When that happens, I think it’s it’ll be very interesting,” the Perplexity CEO concluded.

Zimbabwe Cricket have announced their squad for the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026, marking the nation’s return to the global stage after missing the 2024 edition. Led by talismanic all-rounder Sikandar Raza, the squad blends experience and youth as Zimbabwe aim to re-establish themselves in elite T20 cricket.

Zimbabwe have been drawn into Group B alongside heavyweights Australia and Sri Lanka, as well as Ireland and Oman. All group matches will be played in Sri Lanka, with Zimbabwe opening their campaign against Oman on February 9, 2026.

T20 World Cup 2026: Blessing Muzarabani returns to lead Zimbabwe’s pace attack

A major boost for Zimbabwe comes with the return of fast bowler Blessing Muzarabani, who is set to spearhead the pace attack. Muzarabani missed the recent Pakistan tri-series due to a back injury, raising concerns over his availability for the World Cup.

Having recovered fully, the tall right-arm seamer is expected to play a pivotal role, especially on Sri Lankan surfaces that can offer bounce with the new ball. His presence adds much-needed firepower to a bowling unit that will be tested against some of the strongest batting line-ups in world cricket.

Graeme Cremer’s comeback after seven years

One of the most eye-catching selections is the return of former Zimbabwe captain Graeme Cremer, who has been recalled after a seven-year absence from international cricket. Cremer’s inclusion significantly strengthens the spin department and brings leadership experience to the squad.

Cremer will partner Wellington Masakadza, giving Zimbabwe a reliable spin combination suited to subcontinental conditions. The selectors appear to have placed strong emphasis on experience and control, particularly for matches in Sri Lanka where spin often plays a decisive role.

Balanced squad blends youth and experience

Zimbabwe’s squad reflects a careful balance between seasoned campaigners and emerging talent. Alongside captain Sikandar Raza, the batting unit features Brendan Taylor, whose experience at the international level remains invaluable, as well as dynamic options like Brian Bennett and Ryan Burl.

Amazon founder Jeff Bezos has revealed the single and most important factor behind the company’s trillion-dollar success: “obsessive, compulsive focus on the customer” rather than on competitors. Speaking at the Economic Club of Washington, Bezos stressed on the fact that many of the CEOs and founders claim that they prioritise customers but in reality they spend most of their time in keeping a close watch on their rivals. “It is a huge advantage to any company if you can stay focused on your customer instead of your competitor,” he said.

Customer obsession comes first at Amazon

Amazon’s career page lists 14 leadership principles and ‘customer obsession’ tops the list. The philosophy urges leaders to “start with the customer and work backwards” to earn and keep trust. Bezos feels that it is always important to identify your true customer. “It is a huge advantage to any company if you can stay focused on your customer instead of your competitor. So then you have to identify who is your customer,” said Bezos.At the Washington Post, for example, he said the customer is the reader, not advertisers. “Advertisers want to be where there are readers. So, it’s really not complicated,” he noted.Bezos pointed to Amazon Prime as a prime example of customer‑driven innovation. Launched in 2005 with free and fast shipping, the service was initially criticized as “too good to be true.” Yet its focus on consumer needs proved transformative.

Amazon founder Jeff Bezos’ advice to young people

Jeff Bezos shared an important and surprising piece of advice for young people who are dreaming of entrepreneurial success. Bezos said ‘Go work at McDonald’s.’ As reported by Fortune, in a recent interview, Bezos stressed on the importance of early work experience especially in the fast-paced, customer-facing environment. “I always advise young people: Go work at McDonald’s,” Bezos said. “You learn responsibility. You learn how to show up. You learn how to deal with people. You learn how to hustle.”For those unaware, Bezos started Amazon out of his garage in 1994. He believes that entry-level jobs such as those at McDonald’s tech foundational skills which are important for long term success. He emphasised that such small roles are necessary as they instill skill like discipline, resilience and the ability to handle pressure. These are the traits that many Gen Z entrepreneurs may overlook in their rush to build startups.
