This is unbelievable but a writer of the blockbuster Hollywood franchise Pirates of the Caribbean confessed that the principal character of Jack Sparrow was based on Lord Krishna. Ted Elliott, one of the screenwriters for Jack Sparrow’s character, said, “Jack Sparrow’s character in Pirates of the Caribbean is one of the most integral parts of the film.” “The characterisation of Sparrow is based on Lord Krishna, who is a major deity in Hinduism. While writing the character sketch of Jack Sparrow, we referred to the description of Lord Krishna, various shades of the Almighty, which helped us a lot in making the whole character of Jack Sparrow into existence,” added Elliott. The revelation quickly, and expectedly, went viral on social media in India with people commenting on the similarities between a pirate and a God.

Fans went into a frenzy and tweeted with the hashtag #JackSparrowIsKrishna.

Why do singers close their eyes when they sing?

Closing one's eyes while singing leads to increased auditory acuity and improved vocal control - which acts as a type of biofeedback. This allows the singer to express an enormous amount of energy at the moment as it becomes a larger-than-life experience.

Most people do not realize that 90% of our sensory input is visual in nature. The remaining 10% is shared by the senses of hearing, smell, taste and touch. Also, 40% of the mass of the human brain is dedicated to vision. One benefit of closing our eyes is that there's a mild reduction of blood, nutrients and neurological activity going to the brain's visual center - and uptake of these qualities in the remaining four senses of hearing, smell, taste, and touch. Therefore, the other four senses, along with the emotional and cognitive portions of the brain gain some temporary sensitivity. When we close our eyes, it causes an increase in our ability to feel affection. So, if we are singing about something we love: whether that is our country, our significant other, a pet, etc. it causes our affection and emotions for that person to become intensified. A similar phenomenon occurs when we taste a delicious dessert or smell a favorite flower, etc. It is not just our Even a person with excellent vision will instantaneously increase their sense of touch a - by just closing their eyes. Singing is not only a very multi-sensory experience - it is an intensely emotional experience. Closing one's eyes while singing leads to increased auditory acuity and improved vocal control - which acts as a type of biofeedback. This allows the singer to express an enormous amount of energy at the moment as it becomes a larger-than-life experience. This burst of emotion acts as a contagion and pulls us into the singer's emotions, and many of us will feel that excitement along with the singer.
