Weather and Alerts You Can’t Miss

India’s monsoon is acting up again. The IMD has put Delhi‑NCR on an orange rain alert through July 31, warning of heavy showers that could slow traffic and cause waterlogging. If you’re heading out, keep an eye on the forecast and carry an umbrella. Similar alerts hit Kolkata, where a depression over the Bay of Bengal is drenching the city, leading to traffic snarls and flooded low‑lying streets.

Uttar Pradesh isn’t far behind—15 districts are under orange alerts with Lucknow on a yellow warning. Rainfall this month is already 52 % above normal, and officials expect more downpours into early September. For those in Bihar, rumors of a lightning warning for seven districts on Aug 21 are circulating, but the official bulletin hasn’t confirmed specific locations yet. Stay alert, follow local updates, and avoid standing under trees during storms.

Sports, Entertainment, and Big Headlines

Cricket fans have a lot to chew on. South Africa’s Keshav Maharaj just hit 200 Test wickets, a historic milestone for a spinner. Meanwhile, Pakistan’s Fakhar Zaman is out of the Champions Trophy after a muscle tear, forcing the team to reshuffle its line‑up before the high‑stakes clash with India.

In the entertainment world, the Tamil film Bad Girl has sparked a heated debate. Director Mohan G slammed the teaser for allegedly misrepresenting a Brahmin girl, calling out producers Anurag Kashyap and Vetri Maaran. Actor Shanthi Priya defended the movie as a conversation starter, not an attack on any community.

Reality TV is buzzing too. Bigg Boss 19 launched with Salman Khan back as host, and fresh faces like Ashnoor Kaur are making headlines as the youngest contestant aiming for a win.
