Selena Gomez says she deleted Instagram from her phone because it made her feel "depressed". Speaking ahead of the release of her new film, she said social media negatively affected her self-esteem. The 26-year-old told Kelly Ripa and Ryan Seacrest, "it would make me feel not good about myself, and look at my body differently". The singer added that despite having more than 152m Instagram followers, she doesn't go on it much.

Her comments come after she told audiences at Cannes Film Festival last month that she was scared of how social media could affect young people. Selena said at the event she was worried by how much people were spending their lives online. "It's a useful platform but it does scare me when you see young boys and girls not really aware of the news going on," she said. "It's selfish - I don't wanna say selfish, that's rude - but it's dangerous for sure."Selena has spoken frequently in the past about how she's had to delete Instagram off her phone after receiving abuse from trolls or getting overwhelmed by comments from fans.

"I delete the app from my phone at least once a week. "It's like they [the trolls] want to cut to your soul. Imagine all the insecurities that you already feel about yourself and having someone write a paragraph pointing out every little thing - even if it's just physical," she said. Despite once being the most followed person in the world on Instagram (Cristiano Ronaldo overtook her last year), the comments she's received have made her take lengthy breaks. She even told Vogue that she no longer has the password to her own account - her assistant is in charge of it, and posts all her pictures too.

India captain Virat Kohli's focus turned to Pakistan immediately after his side's match against New Zealand was abandoned without a ball being bowled on Thursday. India face Pakistan at Old Trafford on Sunday in a match which is likely to draw a global television audience of one billion. "It's an opportunity to create excitement," said Kohli, 30. "It's a marquee event all over the world." What can cricket do about the rain? The two countries rarely play outside of major tournaments, with India winning their last two meetings in the Asia Cup in 2018, while Pakistan beat their arch-rivals in the final of the Champions Trophy in England in 2017. India have started well in the World Cup, winning their opening two matches against South Africa and Australia, before their match against New Zealand at Trent Bridge was abandoned. Pakistan, in contrast, have struggled - beating hosts England but losing to Australia and West Indies. "We're playing some good cricket so we're not too worried about where we stand," said Kohli. "Having two wins gives you that extra confidence. "We will have a couple of practice sessions so we know where we are in terms of mindset and skill. "It's also about going out and having game time. We are quite ready to take that game on." On coping with the pressure of such a big game, he added: "As soon you as enter the field it's calm and relaxed. "The frenzy around it is a bit intimidating for the guys doing it for the first time but for us it's about being professional as always, do the basics right and look to get a result your way." Thursday's abandonment was the fourth in the 2019 World Cup, with the previous highest number of washed out matches in a World Cup being two, in 1992 and 2003. "Obviously you turn up hoping to compete for two points but we've been here for four days and not seen any sun so it's no surprise," reflected New Zealand captain Kane Williamson. "We have a break now, which is interesting at this point in the tournament but it's a good chance for guys to freshen up and look forward to our next challenge. "This is a good opportunity for us to get away, refresh and have a couple of training sessions before that challenge against South Africa [19 June]."

A network of tens of thousands of online volunteers is fighting hate speech on Facebook. They organise under the slogan "#IAmHere". It's 7:30 in Berlin, and Nina's alarm clock is going off. Before getting up and making breakfast for her 13-month-old daughter, who is sleeping in the next room, she reaches for her phone. Unlike many of us, Nina's not checking her emails, the news, or looking at gossip sites or posting photos. Instead, every day Nina opens up Facebook and heads straight to the closed group #IchBinHier ("#IAmHere"). Nina is part of an international movement working to find and combat hate speech on the platform. She and her fellow #IAmHere members spend their spare time scanning Facebook for conversations happening on big pages, often run by mainstream media organisations, which are overwhelmed with racist, misogynistic or homophobic comments. They don't attempt to change the minds of people posting hate or argue directly with extremists. Instead they collectively inject discussions with facts and straightforwardly argued reasonable viewpoints. The idea is to provide balance so that other social media users see that there are alternative perspectives beyond the ones offered up by the trolls. The volunteers also say they don't target conservative views or any other mainstream opinions. Instead #IAmHere activists - there are tens of thousands of them in groups across Europe and around the world - say their mission is to change the overall tone of online debate, counteract hate storms and make Facebook a nicer place overall. And the social media giant has picked up on the phenomenon. Facebook has provided #IAmHere groups with free advertising credits and helps them organise meet-ups as part of its Online Civil Courage Initiative. Why do they do it? Nina, 39, says she spends around three hours a day moderating comments on top of her full-time job as director of an NGO. But she has very personal reasons for devoting a large chunk of her busy schedule to the campaign. Her husband is from Uganda, and she says they both have felt angry and scared by what they perceive as a rise in racist, anti-immigrant rhetoric on social media over the past few years. "As a couple in this still very white Germany, we are exposed in a way," she says. "I think our feeling that we have to change something got stronger. "I cannot imagine my daughter growing up and reading all these things. I do not want this culture."

"My heart was beating a lot the first time I used the hashtag… It felt amazing to finally have a group behind me." In Germany, Nina says articles about asylum seekers or climate change protests tend to attract a lot of anger. User comments include racial or ethnic slurs, or include violent images of guns or guillotines. Some comments and pictures can be much worse. Hear more on this story on the Trending podcast from World Service: Download now Where did it start? #IAmHere was founded in Sweden, where it is called #JaGarHar, by Iranian-born journalist Mina Dennert. Around three years ago she says she noticed social media becoming, as she describes it, "flooded with hatred", so she began trying to counter misogynistic and racist comments "in a calm, non-aggressive way". "I've experienced so much racism throughout my life, I wasn't scared to do this," she adds.After a while working mainly on her own, Dennert figured she could make more impact with a group behind her: "I reached out to get other people involved. A lot of them were like, 'This is fantastic, I've been feeling so alone with this.'" Media attention soon followed and the Swedish group grew to 75,000 members. As word spread, similar groups began popping up in other countries including Italy, France, Slovakia, Poland and the UK. Today, there are 14 different #IAmHere groups working towards the same goals in their respective languages. The groups stick to fighting hate speech, which Facebook defines as a "direct attack on people based on protected characteristics - race, ethnicity, national origin, religious affiliation, sexual orientation, caste, sex, gender, gender identity, and serious disease or disability." The German group, #IchBinHier, was founded by marketing consultant Hannes Ley. It currently has 45,000 members. "I had some Swedish friends come to stay in December 2016," he explains. "I came into the kitchen one morning and one of them was posting comments on Facebook. I asked what he was doing." Ley says he had "a really positive gut feeling" the minute his friend explained the concept. "I was reading comments for many years and I felt rather helpless because of the quantity of hate speech. I thought, OK, we can try to make another majority to confront the hate speech crowd." Ley says the group is welcoming of diverse political views. "The majority of our members are left and liberal and we have some conservative members," he says. "We have to tolerate different opinions in a democracy. But if it becomes aggressive, if it becomes violent, this is where #IchBinHier interrupts." As the German group grew, some members became curious about the commenters they were interacting with. "I was very astonished by the number of likes some comments were getting, ones that would really vilify migrants," says Philip Kreissel, a 23-year-old political science student and #IchBinHier volunteer. Intrigued to see whether he could find some kind of organised activity taking place, he began doing data analysis. "I found that some of these accounts were really very active and were 'liking' all day, and this created a bias in social media." Dealing with the backlash Further digging made it clear that many users creating and liking hateful comments were just as organised and targeted as #IAmHere. Researcher Jacob Davey, an expert on the far right at the London-based Institute of Strategic Dialogue (ISD), says: "Troll armies bring themselves together in almost semi-military style hierarchies. "You can see these groups coming together and engaging in harassment on Facebook, which appears to be both silencing moderate discussion and dominating certain discussion points." Going up against these troll armies does not come without risks. "2018 was an election year in Sweden and they started making up the craziest stuff about us, that we were weapons dealers or supporting terrorists," says Dennert. Members of the Swedish group were doxxed - they had their personal information posted online. Dennert, her husband and two children requested police protection after the threats got particularly vicious. In Berlin, Nina has also been subject to intimidation. "One troll mentioned my child, as he saw on my work's website I was on parental leave. That really creeped me out, and I thought for a moment 'Should I be doing this?'" She admits that being confronted with hateful comments on a daily basis can take a toll on members' mental health. "It depends on my daily mood," she says. "Some days I can take so much I amaze myself. Others, I feel my skin is very thin." Should Facebook do more? Facebook has provided the volunteers with free ad credits and support in organising meet-ups. Despite being grateful for the help, many #IAmHere members believe the platform should do more to combat hate speech. Ley says Facebook needs to "live up to its own community standards" and be quicker at deleting comments. In a statement, Facebook says it uses a mix of proactive technology and human moderation, and that its efforts to tackle hate speech have improved. For instance, the company says it has banned more than 200 white supremacist organisations. Starting in 2018, Germany's NetzDG law required social media sites to remove hate speech within a day of it being reported, and analysis shows that explicitly racist posts have decreased on Facebook since then. A study of #IchBinHier activity by researchers at the University of Dusseldorf also found that its commenters are often successful at changing the tone of online debates. Will Germany's new law kill free speech online? On the other hand, research carried out by Kreissel and the ISD found that coordinated right-wing extremist online hate campaigns have increased three-fold since December 2017. "I don't see it getting better, I see it getting worse," says Nina. She says she often feels "hopeless" when confronted with the daily barrage of hate, and she believes "what we say online will affect our offline actions eventually". But this is another reason she keeps going. "I think it's made me more courageous in offline situations," she says. "Recently, two men were shouting at each other on the subway and I just got in between them and said, 'What are you doing?' "It equips me for being with my daughter in this world - if someone makes a comment on how she looks, I'm fast to react. "It's in me… It's part of my life."

ICC Men's Cricket World Cup, Trent Bridge Australia 288 (49 overs): Coulter-Nile 92, Smith 73, C Brathwaite 3-67 West Indies 273-9 (50 overs): Hope 68, Holder 51, Starc 5-46 Australia won by 15 runs Scorecard. Table; Schedule Australia recovered from an awful start to beat West Indies by 15 runs in a wonderful World Cup encounter at Trent Bridge. A day where fortunes fluctuated throughout could have been over quickly when the ferocious West Indies pace attack reduced the defending champions to 38-4 and 79-5. Australia were held together by the unflappable Steve Smith, who made 73 and was only dismissed by the most incredible boundary catch by Sheldon Cottrell, one that perhaps bettered the grab of England's Ben Stokes in the opening game against South Africa. By the time Smith was out, Nathan Coulter-Nile, batting at number eight, had already begun his power hitting in a 60-ball 92 that lifted Australia to 288 all out. After Chris Gayle threatened to thrill in his 21, West Indies were anchored by Shai Hope's 68. The chase was ultimately left to captain Jason Holder, but both he and Carlos Brathwaite fell in the same over from Mitchell Starc, whose 5-46 helped restrict the Windies to 273-9. Australia join New Zealand on two wins from two matches and move on to play India on Sunday. West Indies, with one win and one defeat, take on South Africa on Monday. TMS podcast: Starc reminder, Plunkett's prep and Windies' rejuvenation World Cup schedule Relive Australia's win over West Indies - all the clips as they happened.This was a high-quality contest that more than matched the expectancy generated by the meeting of perhaps the two most exciting pace attacks in the tournament. Its distinct phases gave a little of everything: the determination of Smith, pyrotechnics of Coulter-Nile, the wonder of Cottrell's catch, the drama of four overturned reviews in the West Indies innings and tension of the tight finish. But none of that seemed likely when the West Indies pace bowlers, who steamrollered Pakistan on this ground last week, were threatening to dismantle Australia. Cottrell, Oshane Thomas and Andre Russell do not simply bang the ball into the pitch and hope for the best - they have the skill to bowl aggressive bouncers that still, for the most part, remain within one-day cricket's rules on short bowling. Thomas induced a tentative poke from Aaron Finch, while Cottrell had David Warner caught at point and Glenn Maxwell top-edged a hook. Both of the left-armer's wickets were celebrated with his trademark salute. Usman Khawaja had been hit three times by the time he backed off and was brilliantly caught by wicketkeeper Hope off Russell and, when Marcus Stoinis pulled Holder to mid-wicket, Australia were in tatters.

Katy Perry's new single Never Really Over sounds a lot like Love You Like That - a 2017 song by Norwegian singer Dagny. But this isn't a lawsuit waiting to happen, Katy made sure Dagny and her team knew exactly what was going on and were recognised for their work. "It was the start of this year that suddenly there was a call from Katy's team," Dagny tells Radio 1 Newsbeat. "They said 'Hey, we've made a version of Love You Like That and we want to give credit where credit's due'. Katy's Never Really Over reached number one on the UK Official Trending Chart on Tuesday.Dagny's original version reached number 39 in Norway in 2017 and is taken from her debut album - which she'll spending the next few months finishing off. She says she's glad that Katy's team were upfront about using her work.In recent years, several music stars have faced allegations they have sampled other people's songs without permission. Marvin Gaye's family successfully sued Robin Thicke over the 2015 single Blurred Lines - after claiming it the singer's 1977 hit Got to Give It Up. While Ed Sheeran is facing a court battle in the US over allegations he parts of Marvin Gaye's Let's Get It On - which he denies. Other artists including Bruno Mars, Mark Ronson, Madonna and Miley Cyrus have also been hit with legal claims. "I think it's very good of Katy's team that they did it the right way," Dagny tells Newsbeat. "I think it's a really positive thing because I don't think that any songwriter can deny the fact that when you go into sessions you're inspired by different things that you're listening to." Dagny says it's not uncommon for her to listen to a bit of Katy Perry for inspiration before she starts writing or recording. "There are endless times when I've been in the studio and we've started the session being like 'Let's put on some Katy Perry from 2012, Teenage Dream and all those massive songs she has, let's try and get a vibe from that'."Love You Like That was written by Dagny, Swedish producer Jason Gill and songwriter Michelle Buzz in 2017. The singer says she recorded the song on the final day of a two-month writing trip in Los Angeles where she'd "just done bad songs". "We very quickly caught on this vibe of this one-note chorus and we just got really excited," she says. "We started the session at 11 o'clock in the morning and I think we finished at four or five the next morning, just in one go. "Then I literally went home. Grabbed my things and went back to Europe, three hours later." 'Part of something bigger' Never Really Over was number 11 in the Official Singles Chart update on Monday and it looks like it could become a worldwide hit. "You never know what can happen with a song that you've written," Dagny tells Newsbeat. "It would be really sad, I think, to see this song blow up, realise how similar it is and not to be part of it. "I was just kind of happy for the song that it could be part of something bigger."

It will send another $139m linked to the sale of a Manhattan property allegedly bought with 1MDB funds. Billions of dollars from 1MDB - officially the 1Malaysia Development Berhad fund - have gone missing. Set up in 2009, the sovereign wealth fund was designed to boost Malaysia's economy through strategic investments. But US authorities say $4.5bn was diverted from 1MDB into private pockets, and they have been investigating the corruption scandal. Superyacht linked to 1MDB sold for $126m 1MDB: The playboys, PMs and partygoers Goldman Boss apologies for 1MDB scandal According to US and Malaysian prosecutors, the money was used to buy assets including luxury real estate, a private jet and expensive artworks. On Tuesday, US ambassador to Malaysia, Kamala Shirin Lahkdhir, told Reuters: "We are extremely pleased that this first tranche of assets from this Justice Department investigation is being transferred back to Malaysia, demonstrating the US commitment to return these assets for the benefit of the people of Malaysia," The $57m remitted so far relates to a settlement reached with US film production company Red Granite Pictures, Malaysia's Attorney General Tommy Thomas said in a statement. The film production company settled a civil lawsuit with the US government over rights to blockbuster The Wolf of Wall Street. According to Reuters, US authorities say the film was financed with 1MDB funds. 1MDB was set up by Malaysia's then-prime minister Najib Razak, but red flags were raised in 2015 after it missed payments owed to banks and bondholders. Mr Najib faces more than 40 charges and has gone on trial for his role in a financial scandal. He has pleaded not guilty. He is accused of pocketing $681m from 1MDB. Prosecutors said the money had been used to fund a lavish lifestyle for the former PM and his wife Rosmah Mansor, who is also facing charges of corruption.

British Airways will resume flights to Pakistan on Sunday, more than 10 years after a hotel bombing led to the route being suspended. BA stopped flying to the country after a bombing in the capital city of Islamabad in 2008, which killed more than 50 people. But the airline is now scheduled to fly three times a week to Islamabad from London Heathrow on Boeing 787s. It is the only western airline to serve Pakistan. In September 2008, a bomb was detonated in a dumper truck outside the Marriott Hotel in Islamabad. Pakistan hotel bombing kills dozens BA to resume flights to Pakistan More than 250 people were injured and 54 were killed in the blast. Pakistan hotel bombing kills dozens BA to resume flights to Pakistan Shortly after the explosion, BA suspended all flights, declaring: "We will not compromise on the safety of our customers, staff or planes." But in December last year, the airline said it would restart flights to Pakistan's capital. A new airport was opened in Islamabad in 2018, which has eased concerns about both security and congestion. Until Sunday, Pakistan's PIA was the only airline to run direct flights from Pakistan to the UK. British High Commissioner to Pakistan, Thomas Drew, said BA was joining "an increasing number of British companies doing business in Pakistan".BA suspended all flights, declaring: "We will not compromise on the safety of our customers, staff or planes."

The World Cup gets under way on Thursday, when hosts England take on South Africa at The Oval. After a dismal showing four years ago, England enter this tournament as favourites and the number one side in the world. But will they lift the World Cup for the first time? Test Match Special pundits and commentators, former players and journalists give their predictions on who will make the semi-finals and who will get their hands on the trophy on 14 July. Does anyone think England won't do it? Former England captain Michael Vaughan England are the number one team in the world and formidable at home. I can't see how they won't make the semis. Australia have just got something going, Steve Smith and David Warner are back and you can argue that they have the best bowling attack. India have the know-how. Virat Kohli is the best batsman in the world and Jasprit Bumrah is the best bowler in the world. Pakistan are Pakistan - they will find a way of making the top four. It concerns me that England play in one way. They will get tested, but I'm sticking with them as my winners. Former England captain Alec Stewart The semi-finalists will be England, India, Australia and, if Dale Steyn stays fit, South Africa. England cover all bases and are very well led, India have top players and stand up in world tournaments, while Australia are just starting to peak. Steyn will be key to South Africa - he's only one man, but has the experience and can do brilliant things with the ball. I'm picking England as the winners - it will be a fitting finale for the work done by captain Eoin Morgan and coach Trevor Bayliss, and started by former director of cricket Andrew Strauss. We were humiliated and jealous - how Morgan made England the world's best ODI team Ebony Rainford-Brent, 2009 Women's World Cup winner with England Pakistan are my wildcard - whether they find have form or not, they find something in big tournaments. West Indies could spring a surprise too. With the likes of Chris Gayle and Shimron Hetmyer, their batting will be a lot of fun. Those two teams will join England and India in the semis, and England will be the eventual winners. Jofra Archer has covered the only area where they were possibly lacking and Eoin Morgan will hold it all together.Phil Tufnell, part of England squad that reached 1992 final The semis will be made up of Australia, India, Pakistan and England. Australia have a very good bowling side and are starting to get their mojo back. India have a battalion of batsmen and Pakistan know how to get over the line in tournament cricket. Having said all of that, England are favourites and will be the winners. Isa Guha, 2009 Women's World Cup winner with England Until recently, I had Pakistan reaching the semis, but I've switched them for West Indies. With the likes of Chris Gayle and Andre Russell, the Windies can blitz teams with the bat and their experienced bowlers have come back into the squad. They will join England, India and Australia in the last four, with England going on to win it. Waqar Younis, 1992 World Cup winner with Pakistan The format means anyone who hits form can reach the last four. England are favourites, Australia are getting their confidence back and India are the most likely of the teams from the subcontinent. After that, my heart wants to say Pakistan, but New Zealand are most likely to complete the last four. I can't pick a winner, but it seems most probable that England will be up there. Vic Marks, played for England in 1983 World Cup England and India are both very good teams. They will reach the last four. They will be joined by Australia, who always do well and South Africa, because no-one is expecting them to do anything. Bearing in mind my record as a tipster, I'll say Australia will win it, because I want that to be wrong. Tymal Mills, England Twenty20 bowler England, Australia and India are not shocking picks as semi-finalists. They will be joined by New Zealand. I like their bowling attack - Trent Boult and Tim Southee will do well in English conditions and Lockie Ferguson has real pace. In their batting, Martin Guptill and Colin Munro can score big hundreds, while Kane Williamson is one of the best in the world. England will win it because they are the best team, although any sort of injury to Adil Rashid would be a concern. Charles Dagnall, TMS commentator England and India are straightforward picks, but the other two are more difficult. Australia are coming back and finding their identity after a tough 12 months. No-one is talking about New Zealand, but they're a wonderful side with a lot of bases covered. England will win it. It is their time.West Indies will reach the semis. I'm excited by how they pushed England in the Caribbean over the winter. If it's about who can make the most runs, they are well stocked. With Steve Smith and David Warner out, guys who may have been in the shadow have had the chance to flourish for Australia. Now Smith and Warner have returned, it gives Australia a boost to elevate them to the semis. You just can't see how England and India will miss out on the top four. England have had so much success in bilateral series. Can they replicate that? I think they can and they will win the World Cup. Geoff Lemon, writer and TMS commentator We keep hearing that Australia are back in town, but their lack of power-hitting outside Glenn Maxwell leaves a lot resting on their bowlers. They'll deliver some wins but should miss out to South Africa, a similar side but with Kagiso Rabada's menace and more hitters down the order. New Zealand will make the semis based on all-round cohesion. India have the best bowlers and half of the best batsmen, but must survive having their weak links tested. England will finish on top though: a new age has begun, and even the calamities of old won't be enough to make this team wobble. George Dobell, ESPNcricinfo England, Australia, India and New Zealand are the best balanced sides. West Indies and South Africa are dangerous, but Afghanistan, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh could really struggle. Wouldn't it be painful if this summer of cricket saw Australia leave with the World Cup and the Ashes? But England have a great chance - they won't have a better one for a long time. Prakash Wakankar, TMS commentator I can't think of a time when England have been better equipped. They will be joined in the semis by Australia, who are a team with nothing to lose. Irrespective of the result, Pakistan have had preparation by playing a series in England, while India - ranked second in the world - have always performed well in tournaments in the UK. It will be an England-India final, which England will win if they hold their nerve. I have some doubts, though, so it could be an encore of 1983 for India. Natalie Germanos, TMS commentator India, England, Pakistan and South Africa will make up the top four. India's batting is explosive and they have bowlers that put the opposition under constant pressure. England bat pretty much all the way to number 11 - it's a line-up that takes pressure off their bowlers. Despite being inconsistent, you can't overlook a Pakistan side that won the Champions Trophy here in 2017. Am I being biased in picking South Africa? Maybe. I've been saying for months that they will win it and I'll stick with my gut. If their batters fire, they will be very tough to beat.

Kartik Aaryan (born Kartik Tiwari on 22 November 1990) is an Indian actor who appears in Hindi films. Born and raised in Gwalior, he relocated to Navi Mumbai to pursue an engineering degree in biotechnology. He simultaneously dabbled in modelling and made attempts to start a career in film. After struggling for three years, Aaryan made his acting debut in 2011 with Pyaar Ka Punchnama, a buddy film about the romantic tribulations faced by three young men, which was directed by Luv Ranjan and co-starred Nushrat Bharucha. Aaryan went on to play the romantic interest of the lead female characters in Akaash Vani (2013) and Kaanchi: The Unbreakable (2014), but these films failed to propel his career forward. He subsequently collaborated with Ranjan and Bharucha in two more buddy films, Pyaar Ka Punchnama 2 (2015) and Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety (2018), both of which were commercially successful but received criticism for their misogynistic themes. The latter proved to be a breakthrough for Aaryan, and he followed it by starring in the romantic comedy Luka Chuppi (2019). In addition to his acting career, Aaryan endorses several brands and products, and has co-hosted two award ceremonies.Kartik Tiwari (later Aaryan) was born on 22 November 1990 in Gwalior, Madhya Pradesh.Both his parents are doctors; his father is a paediatrician, and his mother, Mala, is a gynaecologist. He pursued an engineering degree in biotechnology from Navi Mumbai's D Y Patil College of Engineering, while secretly harbouring ambitions for a career in film.He has said that he would skip his classes and travel for two hours to attend auditions.Aaryan began a modelling career while in university and after three years of unsuccessfully auditioning for films, he did an acting course from the Kreating Charakters institute. He informed his parents of his desire to become an actor only after he signed his first film.Aaryan at an event for Kaanchi: The Unbreakable in 2014 While still in his third year of college, Aaryan made his acting debut with Luv Ranjan's buddy film Pyaar Ka Punchnama (2011), co-starring Divyendu Sharma, Raayo S Bakhirta, and Nushrat Bharucha, which revolves around the romantic tribulations faced by three young men.He found a casting call for the film on Facebook and secured the role after auditioning for six months.As he had limited financial means at that point, he lived in an apartment with 12 other aspiring actors and earned money by cooking for them.In Pyaar Ka Punchnama, his character's four-minute monologue was one of the lengthiest single shots done for a Hindi film to that point.Reviewing it for Rediff.com, Shaikh Ayaz found Aaryan's "bursting soliloquy on why women are the way they are and can never be understood riotously funny".Namrata Joshi of Outlook criticised the film for portraying each of the female characters as a "hard-hearted bitch" but was appreciative of Aaryan's monologue and the chemistry between the three men.The film emerged as a sleeper hit and he received a nomination for the Producers Guild Film Award for Best Male Debut.After the release of Pyaar Ka Punchnama, Aaryan completed his engineering degree on the insistence of his mother.His next film release came two years later when he collaborated once again with Ranjan and Bharucha in the romance Akaash Vani (2013), which is about the titular lovers who are separated when Vani is married off to an abusive husband.Sudhish Kamath of The Hindu praised the film for exploring chauvinism in India, a rare concept for Hindi film, and praised the chemistry between the two stars, writing that "you can tell how much they are in love, even when they don't have any lines".Sudhir Chaudhary, the cinematographer in Aaryan's previous films, showed his work to Subhash Ghai, who was impressed by Aaryan and cast him in his directorial Kaanchi: The Unbreakable (2014).It is a drama about a woman's quest for justice when her husband is murdered by politicians, in which Aaryan played the love interest of the title character (played by Mishti). Despite a brief role, Aaryan agreed to the project to work with Ghai.Saibal Chatterjee of NDTV disliked the film but wrote that Aaryan "exudes strong screen presence and shows flashes of qualities needed to be a mainstream Bollywood lover boy".Both Akaash Vani and Kaanchi did not perform well commercially, leading Aaryan to question his career prospects

Sixteen people have been charged in Bangladesh over the shocking murder of a teenager who was burned to death after reporting sexual harassment. Nusrat Jahan Rafi, 19, was doused with kerosene and set on fire on the roof of her Islamic school on 6 April, days after filing a complaint. Headmaster Siraj Ud Doula, targeted in the complaint, is among those charged. Police say he ordered her murder from prison when she refused to withdraw her accusations against him. They described the preparations for the killing as being like a "military plan". The case sparked mass protests in Bangladesh and shone a spotlight on the vulnerability of victims of sexual assault and harassment in the country. Ms Rafi filed a police complaint against Mr Doula in late March and he was arrested. On 6 April she attended the school to sit her final exams when she was allegedly lured to the roof of the school and set alight by a group of people wearing burkas, a one-piece veil that covers the face and body. They had planned to make it look like a suicide, police said, but Ms Rafi - who suffered burns to 80% of her body - was able to give a statement before she died on 10 April. The girl burned to death for reporting sexual harassment Bangladesh rallies over teen killing The women killed on one day around the world Police in Feni, a small town some 160km (100 miles) outside the capital Dhaka, formally laid murder charges on Wednesday against the 16 accused. They include students at the madrassa and two local politicians from the governing Awami League party who were in prominent positions at the school. Investigators are calling for the death penalty for all of the suspects. Police say that the principal has confessed in court that he ordered the murder. They say that in total 12 of the accused have given statements of confession. The two local politicians have not admitted any involvement. In the wake of Ms Rafi's death, Bangladeshi Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina pledged that every person involved in the killing would be brought to justice. "None of the culprits will be spared from legal action," she said.What happened to Nusrat? On 27 March, the 19-year-old accused the headmaster of the madrassa she attended of calling her into his office and repeatedly touching her in an inappropriate manner. She ran out before things could go any further. She and her family went to the police on the same day and she gave a statement. At the police station, she was filmed by the officer in charge as she described the ordeal. In the video she is visibly distressed and tries to hide her face with her hands. The policeman is heard calling the complaint "no big deal" and telling her to move her hands from her face. He has now been charged with illegally recording her statement and sharing it online. The madrassa's headmaster was arrested after Ms Rafi filed her complaint, triggering street protests locally demanding his release. According to Police Bureau of Investigation (PBI) chief Banaj Kumar Majumder, Mr Doula was visited in jail by associates whom he instructed to intimidate Nusrat's family to withdraw the complaint. When this failed, the principal is alleged to have ordered her to be killed if necessary. At a news conference on Tuesday, the PBI chief described careful planning - including the purchase of kerosene, burkas and gloves. The accused are alleged to have divided roles among themselves on 6 April, the day of the murder. Some guarded the gates of the madrassa to make sure only students entered, while others kept watch in front of the specific building where Nusrat was to be attacked, Mr Majumder said. According to a statement given by Nusrat, she was lured to the roof of that building by a fellow female student. She was allegedly told that one of her friends was being beaten up. There, Mr Majumder said, she was pressured to withdraw the case and asked to sign a blank piece of paper. When she refused she was gagged and bound before being doused with kerosene and burned, he said. In the ambulance, fearing she might not survive, she recorded a statement on her brother's mobile phone and identified some of her attackers as students at the madrassa. "The teacher touched me, I will fight this crime till my last breath," she can be heard saying in the video. A trial date is yet to be set.

It comes weeks after a court upheld prison sentences for the activists, who held protests in 2016 and 2017. Authorities accuse them of threatening the security of the country. Country profile Protesters have been pictured with flags, banners and pictures of the jailed activists, who are members of Hirak Rif - or the "Rif Movement".The demonstrations also called for the release of journalist Hamid El Mahdaoui, who is serving a three-year sentence for covering the protests in Morocco's northern Rif region. Why were the activists imprisoned? In June 2018, a court sentenced Nasser Zefzaki, the leader of Hirak Rif, to 20 years in prison. The same term was given to activists Ouassim El Boustati and Samir Ghid, while others were given sentences of up to 15 years. The Hirak Rif organised protests in 2016 and 2017 after the death of a fishmonger in Al-Hoceima, a town in Rif. Fishmonger Mohcine Fikri was crushed to death by a rubbish lorry whilst trying to recover his fish which had been confiscated by local police. The incident prompted a wave of anger and thousands took to the streets, accusing authorities of corruption and an abuse of power.
