Abbas is back on the AMA and it’s gloriously unhinged: from co-parenting a cat after a breakup to an Indigo co-pilot’s loo fiasco, Dream11’s exit, Priyadarshan’s “100 and out?”, Pujara’s retirement, and whether Messi is actually coming to India.

• “Man climbed the Parliament building!” → sneaking into govt buildings, delivery-boy disguises & canteens.
• Supreme Court vs Dogs (and Cyrus’ PSA about not getting into certain ‘positions’).
• Barging into an airplane loo: the co-pilot incident that had everyone talking.
• Priyadarshan eyeing retirement after film #100 (allegedly)
• The ₹76 lakh marriage story.
• Dream11 reportedly backs out as Team India’s kit/title sponsor—escape clause gossip & “condom brand” jokes.
• Pujara retires: stats, love, and… why “Chintu” doesn’t work at 36.
• “Messi in India?!”—survival tips for the GOAT if he lands here.
• Plus Putin/Trump’s English, wheelchairs & biology, identifying mallus, and mattresses that practically sponsor podcasts.
