<ul class="summary-list"><li>Footage showed a woman casually playing guitar, oblivious that a large bird headed towards her.</li><li>The video captured the pandemonium as the TikToker screamed, the bird squawked, and the dog barked.</li></ul><p>A TikToker who filmed herself playing guitar unwittingly caught the moment a large bird flew into her apartment, causing absolute pandemonium.</p><p>On June 29, a TikToker who goes by <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@nikkikundanmal" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Nikki Kundanmal</a> posted <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@nikkikundanmal/video/7249762764367924522" target="_blank" rel="noopener">a video</a> which showed her strumming a guitar and singing along to the track "Kiss Me" by Sixpence None the Richer, while an on-screen caption read, "Having the most chaotic day of my life was not on my 2023 bingo card."</p> <p>Soon after, a bird could be seen in the background landing on her balcony rail, while an on-screen caption said it was a hawk which the TikToker chose to name Thomas. The bird could then be partially seen flying through the open glass door before it emerged right beside Kundanmal, prompting an off-camera dog to start barking.</p><p>Still seemingly unaware of the feathered guest getting closer and closer, Kundanmal attempted to shush her dog instead, until the sound of Thomas spreading its wings and jumping to a bowl right beside her startled the TikToker and sparked a chain of chaotic events. </p><p>The small dog continued to bark as it then appeared to lunge at the bird, who in turn flew to the other side of the room and loudly squawked as Kundanmal could be heard shouting. After the bird flew back outside, Kundanmal, who picked up the device recording the incident, could then be heard slamming the balcony door shout.</p><p>The video received over 2.8 million views and over 8,300 comments that appeared to revel in the havoc, as Kundanmal could be seen accidentally knocking over a drink with the head of the guitar, spilling it onto her laptop before fleeing the frame, while an on-screen caption said she started yelling the name of a roommate who hadn't lived there in months.</p><p>"All of this. The soundtrack. The suspense. The protagonist. The supporting actor .no part2. MASTERPIECE," one viewer wrote in a top comment that received over 15,100 likes, as many more appeared blown away by how much disarray had unfolded in such a short space of time. </p><p>Others appeared mostly concerned with the laptop on the table, which sat in a pool of liquid as the can continued to drip throughout the debacle, with some tagging Apple, inviting them to replace the potentially damaged item after everything the TikToker had been through. Still no word back from Apple, as far as we can see.</p><p><a href="https://www.insider.com/culture"><strong>For more stories like this, check out coverage from Insider's Digital Culture team here.</strong></a></p>

Waititi is currently directing the new, "Thor: Love and Thunder" movie, which stars Thompson - who plays Valkyrie. While Ora - Waititi's <a href="https://people.com/music/rita-ora-sparks-dating-rumors-with-director-taika-waititi/">rumored girlfriend</a> - has been filming "The Voice Australia," in which she appeared as a judge.</p><p>While the exact nature of the trifecta's relationship is unclear, Twitter users had fun believing the three are in a throuple, which isn't confirmed. </p><p>"Rita ora being in a poly relationship with Taika Waititi and Tessa Thompson wasn't on my 2021 bingo card, but here we are," one person wrote on Twitter.</p><p>Another person said, "if you would've told me a year ago Tessa Thompson, Rita ora, and Taika Waititi would be in a throuple, I would've slapped you and called you a liar."</p><p>On social media, users have also joked about how these pictures might have upset fellow Marvel actress Brie Larson, who plays Captain Marvel.</p><p>After "Thor: Love and Thunder" was announced, Marvel Studios head Kevin Feige confirmed that Thompson's character would have "an explicitly queer relationship" in the movie, <a href="https://io9.gizmodo.com/its-official-valkyrie-will-be-the-mcus-first-lgbtq-her-1836569528">Gizmodo reported</a>.</p><p>In 2019, Larson and Thompson <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YEYUYaHnbrA">appeared and joked on a panel together</a>. The moderator asked what the two were looking forward to in their upcoming projects when someone from the crowd shouted, "Lesbians!"</p><p>Thompson didn't know how to answer, so Larson picked up the question and said, "How do I top 'lesbians?'" Thompson then joked, "I'm sure the lesbians could show you...right after this panel."</p><p>Ever since then, the Marvel fandom has shipped the two women. Ship is an online term that means to encourage two people to be in a relationship together.</p><p>Representatives for Ora, Waititi, and Thompson did not respond to Insider's request for comment.</p>

Seated on balconies with their families, an announcement from the mike in the balcony across the street says, “two fat ladies 88” and right then someone shouts back “Bingo!”.<br /><br />This wouldn’t have been an everyday scenario in the busy hustle and bustle of the Delhi life. It is only possible because people forced to stay indoors as a part of the 21-day lockdown issued by the Modi government. They are now finding creative ways to spend their time. <br /><br />The video, of course, caught the attention of the regular WhatsApp video sharer and industrial tycoon – Anand Mahindra. He declared – this is way more fun than singing from the balconies.<br /><br /><div type="twitter" handle="anandmahindra" handlename="anand mahindra" image="http://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images/1053583782584807425/-7IRmY5u_normal.jpg" favoritecount="23773" retweetcount="3517" status="I will never stop being amazed by the creativity of our people.

A little more sleep, a little more family time, a little more Netflix &amp; Chill and above all, the time to maintain a Travel journal. It is beautiful how I can now put together moments from my traverse and re-live in those million memories that truly liberates my soul,” she said.<br /><br />Even corporates that have given their employees work from home understand that they need to take care of their mental health while stuck at home – Uber is holding online yoga sessions for its employees!<br /><br />Meanwhile, social media platforms like Instagram and Facebook, are flooded with people posting pictures of home workouts, <keyword id="6349980" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="online-ludo">online Ludo</keyword> games with friends and more.
