Arjun Tendulkar, the son of legendary cricketer Sachin Tendulkar, married Saaniya Chandhok in a unique and elegant ceremony in Mumbai. The wedding was held in a specially designed 270-degree mandap, which was adorned with soft, sophisticated decor featuring pastel shades of white, pink, green, and gold, along with baby breath flowers. The venue exuded a tranquil ambiance, blending traditional elements with modern aesthetics. The ceremony followed a thematic approach, with the wedding theme derived from the couple’s names. The mehndi ceremony was vibrant and colorful, while the main wedding ceremony was conducted in a serene, intimate setting. Live music played a significant role in the celebrations, with renowned singer Harshdeep Kaur performing a live song as Saaniya entered the mandap. Singer Shankar Mahadevan also contributed by singing the Mangalashtak, a set of eight auspicious verses traditionally recited during Hindu and Jain weddings to bless the newlyweds with prosperity and harmony. The Mangalashtak, as explained, is a sacred ritual that invokes deities like Lord Ganesha and other celestial beings, symbolizing the couple’s journey toward a blissful, obstacle-free life. After the ceremony, guests were treated to a traditional Maharashtrian meal known as "pangat," fostering a sense of community and celebration. Notable attendees included cricket legends like MS Dhoni, Yuvraj Singh, and Harbhajan Singh, as well as Bollywood personalities such as Jahir Khan, Irfan Pathan, and Ravindra Jadeja.

adidas HyperBOOST EDGE—The Shoe Preferred by Four-in-Five Runners Adidas is continuing its legacy of innovation with the release of the HyperBOOST EDGE, a new silhouette that marks the brand’s most significant midsole evolution since the introduction of BOOST in 2013. Positioned as a “supertrainer” within its running lineup, the shoe features a groundbreaking cushioning system called HyperBOOST PRO. This material is at least 40% lighter than standard BOOST and offers an average of 20% higher energy return compared to other BOOST products, according to the brand. Adidas claims that a study conducted at the University of Cologne found that four out of five runners who tested the HyperBOOST EDGE perceived softer cushioning than their existing footwear. These athletes also reported a stronger energy return from the new trainer. While the shoe’s design includes a small plastic element in the outsole, it lacks the rigid feel of some of the brand’s other Torsion System models. Visually, the HyperBOOST EDGE shares similarities with adidas’ top-tier road running models but diverges in key design aspects. The sleek upper features no 3-Stripes branding, which has been relocated to the midsole. A striped pattern across the foam’s top half indicates where the foot sits, while callouts to the shoe’s name and cushioning system are displayed on the spine and medial midsole. The debut colorway, dubbed “Hyper Crush,” draws inspiration from the anatomy of the foot. Additional color variations are expected to be released throughout the year. Adidas also plans to integrate HyperBOOST PRO technology into other footwear designs across multiple sports. The HyperBOOST EDGE will be available globally starting March 17 via adidas.com for $200.#adidas #hyperboost_edge #university_of_cologne #hyperboost_pro #hyper_crush

NHAI promises uninterrupted fuel, bitumen supply amid rising cost concerns The highway developers said they anticipated an increase in transportation cost on the back of increase in diesel price and rising input material costs are expected to escalate transportation expenses.

Adidas Hyperboost Edge Review (2026) The Adidas Hyperboost Edge, a new addition to the brand’s running shoe lineup, has been praised for its exceptional cushioning, energy return, and durability in lab tests. Reviewer Carlos Sánchez highlighted that the shoe delivers a “super trainer” experience, combining ultra-cushioning with a bold design that feels fun and agile during runs. While the price point is high and breathability is limited, the shoe is positioned as a strong contender in the competitive Boost series. The Hyperboost Edge excels in shock absorption, with lab data showing a heel score of 154 SA and a forefoot score of 145 SA—both above the average of 130 SA across 326 tested shoes. Its Hyperboost Pro foam, a PEBA-based material, outperformed most competitors, achieving an energy return of 73.6% in ASTM F1976 tests. This result surpassed even the ASICS Megablast, a model often regarded as a benchmark in the category. The shoe’s massive 44.6 mm heel stack and 38.1 mm forefoot height contribute to its ultra-cushioned feel, though this reduces ground feedback and may appeal more to runners prioritizing protection over responsiveness. The Hyperboost Edge’s design includes a late forefoot rocker, which encourages a more aggressive toe-off, and a balanced heel structure that supports the high stack without excessive curvature. The Primeweave upper offers comfort, while the full-length rubber outsole enhances durability. However, the tapered toebox may not suit wider feet, and the shoe’s limited breathability could be a drawback for some users. The review recommends the Hyperboost Edge for runners seeking a versatile shoe for long runs, marathons, or race day use, particularly those who value cushioning and energy return.#adidas #carlos_sanchez #hyperboost_edge #boost_series #adizero_evo_sl
