Telegram is not an Indian app but is more secure than WhatsApp

Telegram is a Non-Profit Russian app In the past few months, a lot of people in India have started using a messenger named 'Telegram'. Telegram is becoming popular among the masses. If you have this app you'll notice that almost every day you get a message saying- "Xyz joined Telegram!". Many people think it's an Indian app and I think that's why Indians have started using it. But it's just a rumor.  Telegram was launched by two brothers- Pavel Durov and Nikolai in 2013. The brothers are the founders of Russia's biggest social media app- 'VK'. In the first year itself Telegram had 100,000 daily users and by 2014 had 35 million monthly users. In 2018 it had 200 million active users.

Iron Man is legend, right? Well RDJ's Iron Man was inspired by a Real-Life Billionaire

RDJ'S Iron Man is based on Elon Musk If I asked you about one superhero with zero haters, the first name that will capture your mind is 'Iron Man'. The superhero who started the MCU is one of the coolest and most loved superheroes in history. And Robert Downey Jr's performance as Iron Man was mindblowing. The sad thing is that he won't continue, as we saw in 'Avengers; Endgame' but that's another story. The main thing here is that RDJ took inspiration from the real-life billionaire 'Elon Musk'.  I don't know how many of you know this guy, but he is the founder of- Paypal, SpaceX, Tesla, The Boring Company, and Co-founder of- OpenAI, Neuralink, and Zip2.  He is also the chairman of SolarCity. Yes, he is handling 5 companies at the same time (he sold Paypal for a billion dollars and zip2 for around 300 million dollars). RDJ first took inspiration from the original inspiration of comic book version of Iron Man, a man named 'Howard Hughes...
