Rubik's --> Cube --> Third Power --> Mahesh (Among Brahma, Vishnu, Mahesh)
Basic --> No idea
20 --> XX --> Female --> Mixed doubles
Mahesh Bhupathi with 6 grand slam mixed doubles wins.
Hi Kaevan.
this is a strange one but hear me out...
rubiks - kiburs (anagram) = khybers mountain pass
basic = alkaline = bleach sounds like bealach another term for pass
20 - score = notch (notch a score)
so all 3 words are mountain passes!
hi priyadarshi!
another try closer to our hearts
rubik's - puzzle - riddle - riddler
20 - xx - double x - dr double x - another enemy of batman
basic - donno - poison ivy?
TL - BATMAN VILLAINS
basic could be bare bones or skeletor - hemans enemy... then they all just become animated villains
Hey Avinash, where are you these days?
basic = basic instinct - sharon stone - name of halle berry in flintstones
xx - woman - catwoman
now rubiks - could be jinx (die another day)
TL - HALLE BERRY ROLES/MOVIES
Rubik's --> Cube --> it's initial name was "The Gordian Knot"
Basic --> (WIP --> rather force fitting in progress :-) )
20 --> Alexander's age when he cut the Gordian Knot
Hence TL: Cutting of the Gordian Knot or the expression that arises namely "To cut the gordian knot"
rubiks - cube power of 3
basic - fundamental - fundamental rights - power or the 3
or
basic = primary transmission - electric power
xx - girls powerpuff girls
SO TL - POWER
got another one
rubiks cube called rubiks revenge
basic - basic instinct - the famous leg crossing sequence copied from the avengers
20 - not sure - score against - also 20/20 - vision - so an eye for an eye?
so theme is vengeance.. sounds strange
rubik's - cube - cubism
basic - basic colors - paints
20 - 20 questions - also called tintoretto - painter
a rather faded TL : painting
brilliant catcharun - inspired
why cant TL - be painting styles and basic leading to colors should lead to monet - cubism, impressionism etc
first-ever attempt...
Rubik's Cube=> 3
Basic...3 basic needs....Roti, Kapda aur makaan => Bollywood movie?
20....20 Saal baad
TL- Bollywood movies??
Clue 1: Rubik's = CUBE
Clue 2: Basic = VANILLA
Clue 3: 20 = The Letter T
If we add ICE to each of the above we get ICE CUBE, VANILLA ICE & ICE-T - names of famous rappers.
Thus, ANS is 'Rap artists with ICE in their names.'
hi nimish. sounds just right to me. so why the silence from anantha?
solved.
