Depression is no joke. Even people with the strongest Will Power suffer severely.

Fame can be a Curse Everyone was shocked on hearing the sudden news of Sushant Singh Rajput passing away. May his soul RIP. The rising star of the industry who was battling depression succumbed to it. Depression is no joke. Everyone knows how hard it is to take place in this industry especially when you have no contact with the industry. If a person still achieved this, you cannot doubt if the person was weak. Only a strong-willed, highly determined person can make it. Still, the disease broke him. Depression is like any other deadly disease which any person can suffer from. Many people fight cancer yet many die even while fighting, it does not mean they were weak. The same is with this disease.

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'. But he felt nostalgic and heard about a man who was similar to Howard. So, he visited SpaceX to get ready for his role from getting an idea from the surroundings of SpaceX. But, he ended up getting a personal tour of the company by Elon himself. "My mind is not easily blown, but this place and these guys were amazing'' said Downey. He felt that he should know about the psyche and lifestyle of Elon to prepare for his role as Stark. So, they used to have lunch together in the office, had long walks, partied and even went for a jungle trek.


"Both Musk and Stark were the type of men, according to Downey who "had seized an idea to live by and something to dedicate themselves to" and were not going to waste a moment.
Out of 168 hours in a week, Musk works for 100 hours. To give an idea, an average CEO works 62.5 hours a week and an average person works 44 hours a week. Musk's mission is to colonize Mars and promote the use of cleaner fuels. By the time we grow up, we may be living in mars, at least that is what he says.

He also had a cameo in 'Iron man 2' in the billionaire's party before Stark's race. Also, a Tesla Roadster, the first supercar of Tesla Inc. was parked in 'Iron Man' when Tony was experimenting with his invention. 




The Tesla Roadster was not released at that time. It was kept there to show the coolness of Tony Stark who owned a Tesla even before it was released.


Comment me about your favorite superhero and the actor who played it.


Hope you enjoyed,
Curio.

Are you chilling with Netflix? It could've Died in 2000.

Netflix could've Died Netflix!! We all know about this company and we love it so much. Is it not keeping us alive in this lockdown? Today, I don't really think there are people unaware of this 'Online Streaming Giant'. But back in 1998, when Netflix had just started, things weren't as they are today. People used to buy DVDs and watch them on DVD players on weekends. At that time a company named 'Blockbuster'  dominated this industry. At that time Blockbuster had 9,904 stores and had employed 84,300 people whereas Netflix was just a baby. Netflix used to mail DVDs which people could order online. You can say it like a DVD selling version of Amazon. But still, they were online, unlike Blockbuster which had physical stores. It was difficult for a small company like Netflix to fight with such a big company and the other competitors. In the year 2000, Reed Hastings the founder of Netflix decided to offer a deal to Blockbuster. Everyone at that time expected Blo...
