Yesterday was a good day.

Connect, apart from the fact that they are Indian sportstars. However, the order is important and in that order they've been the only ones to do something specific:

And the list goes on................

Well I suppose Manu is right that they've won Padma Shree, but the answer I was looking for is that they were in that order: Rajya Vardhan Singh Rathore (08) , Anju Bobby George (04), Leander Paes (00), Pargat Singh (96).... were the flag bearers at the opening ceremony for India in the olympics.

This one is my favourite. And its a damn easy question. :D

A+B+C = A+(X+B+C)-X
X & D are nearly inseparable. Identify X and (A+B+C).

A

B

C

D

B is generic and D isn't about the person.

Hint for A = Not one of the main characters. Look into Book 3-7.

Hint for D = That's a royal fellow, ship is on what he returns, to his home atop the towering two ring like mountains, the abode of the lord. If that makes sense to you.

Answer: Chang, Poole & Schmidt

A = Cho Chang

B = Swimming Pool

C = Eric Schmidt (CEO Google)

X = Denny Crane

D = Howard Shore

Jhaapto.

Identify this person, who, during his time, was responsible for the migration of over 300,000 people. Its often said that an equal number came from both the sea and land from all over the world.

Hint:

Something done on A in B which can have some issues with C. Let that be D. Something that can be said to be the influencing factor for D is E. The background of the main protagonist of E is a very heavy hint for the above person. Identify him.

A

B

C

Completely correct answer given by Kaushik. Quoting him:

"A - Johnny Walker
B - CID
Here CID is the movie, and Johnny walker is Badruddin, who sings - "Yeh hain Bambai Meri Jaan" (D). Bambai can offend (C), Raj Thackrey. Now the song is heavily inspired by the American Ballad "Oh My Darling, Clementine" from the movie "My Darling Clementine"(E), which is based on the California Gold Rush, which in turn, was started by James W. Marshall, the old man in the pic."

(E) was actually intended to be "Oh My Darling, Clementine" only because the protagonist, Clementine, (as stated in the 3rd line of the ballad) is the daughter of a miner, 49er. 49er is a term given specifically to the miners of the California Gold Rush.

Also a rather lame hint was the title of the post. According to Google Translation, Rush when translated to hindi means 'jhaapto'. =P

And Kaushik, thank you for the glowing remarks on the question.

Auto Expo

A+B+C+D = E
Give me E and D. E isn't really the same thing as any of A, B, C, D but can be described as something that took place between the father of a Graeco/Mathematical dwarf and the residents of greenhouse. Not exactly greenhouse but its synonym. Actually, we all know that it isn't a greenhouse because its not green. So what we should actually call it, is the synonym. The title leads you on.

A
B

C

Nearly cracked by Anurag. D is Lanchester which along with Jaguar (C) , Land Rover (B) and Daimler (A) (Not the German one but the Brit one) were the 4 marques sold to Tata by Ford. So E is Tata (Father of Graeco/Mathematical Dwarf = Nano) and Ford (Its headquarters is called Glass House) deal.

B- Paul Tibbets. He dropped 'Little Boy' on the 'Enola Gay' named after his mother.
