Sikandar Meets Ghajini: Who Is Better Dancer? Aamir's New Punch For Salman

Just a few days before the release of Salman Khan's Sikandar, the makers dropped another intriguing video of Sikandar meets Ghajini. Aamir Khan, Salman Khan and director A R Murugadoss featured in the video. This time, Aamir Khan came with another punch - who is a better dancer between him and Salman? A R Murugadoss has to answer this.

Sharing the video, Salman Khan wrote in the caption, "Amar Prem ka Andaaz with AR Murugadoss! #SikandarMeetsGhajini"

The video drew instant responses from the Internet. A fan wrote, "Legends." Another user wrote, "Two legends in one frame." Another user wrote, "Two icons of Bollywood cinema."

Take a look:

In the previous video, Aamir Khan asked the director to name the bigger "Sikandar" between the two Khans. 

Teasing the viewers with a snippet, Salman Khan wrote, "Amar Prem ka Andaaz with AR Murugadoss! #SikandarMeetsGhajini."  The video drew instant responses from the Internet.

At the trailer launch of Sikandar on Sunday, Salman Khan addressed the issue of a 31-year age gap with heroine Rashmika Mandanna.  "They say there is a 31-year difference between the heroine and me. If the heroine doesn't have any problem or the heroine's father doesn't have any problem, then why do you have a problem?" Salman Khan's punchline made the press burst into laughter.

Salman Khan didn't stop there. "And when she (Rashmika) will get married and have a daughter and then she becomes a big star then also we will work (together). We will get the mother (Rashmika)'s permission for sure," Salman Khan said at the event.

Apart from Salman Khan and Rashmika, the project also features Kajal Aggarwal, Sathyaraj and Sharman Joshi in important roles. Sikandar will release in theatres on March 30.

Before Sikandar, Salman Khan's Tiger 3 (2023) released on a Sunday which coincided with Diwali that year.

Apple Watch May Reportedly Integrate Cameras to Become an AI Wearable

Apple is planning to integrate cameras into its smartwatches, according to claims by a seasoned journalist. The Cupertino-based technology giant may add a camera near the crown and the button on the Apple Watch Ultra's side, allowing the user to scan an object around them and get information about it. Meanwhile, the standard Apple Watch series is also likely to get it. As per the report, it would fulfill the company's ambition of having an artificial intelligence (AI) wearable which can “see the outside world and deliver relevant information”.

Cameras on the Apple Watch

This information comes from Bloomberg's Mark Gurman. In the latest edition of the Power On newsletter, the journalist highlighted Apple's plans regarding its lineup of smartwatches, the Watch Ultra as well as the numbered Series. In line with its ambitions of making AI a fundamental part of the iPhone, the company also reportedly wants to have Visual Intelligence at the core of its smartwatches.

Notably, it is a visual lookup tool which helps them learn about objects and places instantly, powered by Apple Intelligence — the iPhone maker's AI suite.

As part of its plan, the standard Apple Watch may come with cameras embedded with the screen, similar to the iPhone's front-facing camera. Meanwhile, it is speculated to be located between the crown and the button on the side of the flagship Watch Ultra model. As per Gurman, the Watch Ultra is thicker than the numbered series and hence Apple may have “more room to play with”.

The report suggests users may be able to point their Apple Watch Ultra at an object for scanning it. Alternatively, the standard series wearers may have to flip their wrist for the same. While its features are yet to be revealed, the report suggests that despite having cameras, the smartwatch is unlikely to support FaceTime due to several challenges.

For starters, the smartwatch's screen would be too small for carrying out videoconferencing. Secondly, it would require the user to hold a smartwatch up for the duration of the call, making it impractical. However, Gurman says porting the FaceTime app for the Apple Watch wouldn't prove to be challenging, but despite this, it is said to be a “far-fetched idea”.
