This is headquarter building of X. The name almost seems to be in the picture. It is famous for holding an enigma machine and also an modernized AK rifle whose precious owner was Osama Bin Laden. X?? 

Foursome

Now these four look like they mean business. But they have worked together only at one place. Who are they and what am I talking about?

Freedom

Can't really say much about the pics. CONNECT. 

Sky High

Now all of the above buildings are huge skyscrapers, but that's not the only commonality between them. One of them is the tallest building in the world, and another one was the tallest building in the world. All these are in different countries. So, what connects them all? 

Never Underestimate the Predictability of Stupidity

Now this is emblem of an old society, which engendered something nasty. Some time back, NASA got into trouble because of something related to this.

Clutch

There's something special about this pic. Almost all of you, whether you are an NBA fan or not, have seen why this pic is so special. And it is famous only because of one of the individuals in the pic. Now tell me why is it so special!? 

Bloom

In during the sombre times of a pandemic, X has gotten enough limelight. The first two pics showcase what X wanted to be, but failed. The third pic is one of the reasons why X is not in the good books of many. Who is X? 

The Original

I'm sure you know the above individuals. But there is another outlandish artist who connects them all. This Briton is not really a movie maker, but has contributed a lot to movies. 

And it turns blue...

Was fortunate to witness this happening. The person in the first pic is the creator of this and the band in the second pic has used this for their live shows.

Connect.

This could have happened.

I would like to begin with the most cliched statement every quizzer hears. Yes, the answer is there in the picture. And it is not the part I erased. As a matter of fact, don't even know why I took that off. This is a telegram from Washington to Cabinet Office. But what was it about?

Now where is this!

Well, I don't know whether you know much about this place! But you surely would have heard the name of this place for a very specific reason.
