Actor Vidyut Jammwal too responded to Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s appeal to switch off and light up candles on Sunday night at 9pm, but with a difference. Instead of lighting and blowing off candles the traditional way, Vidyut exercised the ancient Indian martial art of Kalaripayattu to get the job done.

In a couple of videos he posted on social media, Vidyut can be seen lighting the candles and then putting them out without actually touching them, but by simply using his Kalaripayattu skills.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
