1 The return of the king. Pathaan released in January and Shah Rukh Khan was officially back. The high-octane masala Bollywood spy-versusspy flick had no surprises, but it reminded the film industry who's on top, as if we ever forgot. There were memes, there were trolls, there were box-offce records and there was Deepika Padukone in Besharam Rang and Jhoome Jo Pathaan. Phew!
2 Doja Cat sparkled. American rapper Amala Ratna Zandile Dlamini, aka Doja Cat, wore an allred ensemble to Schiaparelli's Paris Fashion Week show, covered in 30,000 Swarovski crystals and red body paint. Of course, she went viral, with many Indians comparing her to Rajpal Yadav's Chhote Pandit.
