New Delhi: Former England Cricketer Andrew Flintoff on Saturday trolled Bollywood Superstar Amitabh Bachchan over his nearly five-year-old tweet wherein the all-rounder had compared Virat Kohli to England’s Joe Root.

In the first tweet on March 27, 2016, Flintoff had said Indian Skipper Virat Kohli will one day be as good as English Skipper Joe Root. Replying to his tweet on the same day Amitabh had asked who Joe Root was adding that Indians will ‘Uproot Joe Root’.

Amitabh had written "@flintoff11 @imVkohli @root66 @englandcricket Root who ? जड़ से उखाड़ देंगे Root ko ..!!!"

On Saturday when Joe Root who is leading the English team that is touring India for four test match series scored a double century in the first inning of the first test match in Chennai, Flintoff went back to recall his tweet and wrote: “With the greatest respect , this aged well”. (SIC)

Bengaluru (PTI): The Karnataka High Court on Monday extended the interim relief given to Bollywood actor Ranveer Singh till March 9, in a case related to mimicking a character from the movie, 'Kantara Chapter-1', and allegedly mocking a deity.

The actor had approached the High Court seeking the quashing of the FIR against him for mimicking Rishab Shetty's role as 'Chavunda' deity in the movie.

While mimicking, Singh had called the deity a "ghost". The actor was asked to appear before the court in person on Monday.

Appearing on behalf of the actor, his counsel Sajjan Poovayya said Singh was stuck in London and was unable to reach Bengaluru due to the conflict in West Asia.

The complainant, who is a lawyer, alleged that his religious sentiments were hurt by calling the deity a ghost. On the directions of a local Court, the police registered a case against the actor.

The High Court on February 24 granted interim relief to the actor with directions to the police not to take any coercive steps against him.
