I have been asked this many times and I always say no. Probably because I did not express any interest in learning the flute, hence they did not teach me or vice...
Anil Kapoor Manages To Be One Of The Bright Spots Of Harshvardhan Rane, Divya Khossla’s Film
A gender-reversed, Indian mythology-inspired adaptation of the jailbreak thriller The Next Three Days (2010), which was in turn a remake of the French film Pour Elle (Anything for Her, 2008), Savi huffs and puffs its way through the tale of a homemaker who fights tooth and nail to get her murder convict-husband out of a high-security Liverpool prison. In terms of its technical attributes, Savi lacks nothing. Cinematographer Chinmay Salaskar and editor Shan Mohammed lend the film sustained gloss and pace. Director Abhinay Deo, working with an adapted screenplay by Parveez Shaikh and Aseem Arora, does more than his bit...

Hollywood stars braved the rain to open Paris Fashion Week at L’Oreal’s giant outdoor show Monday as rumours swirl of musical chairs at the top of fabled French brands.

Pratik Gandhi Shines Bright In A Desultory Film
A common man fighting for his rights in a system loaded heavily against him is a familiar figure in Hindi movies that seek to address the inequities that plague the nation. The protagonist of Dedh Bigha Zameen is cast in the same mould. Written and directed by Pulkit and streaming on JioCinema, the film roots for an Everyman who wages a battle against his circumstances, the law and a flagrant abuse of political power. However, the methods it employs are so understated that the anger and frustration of the underdog barely register. The line between the subdued and the bland...
