The memory of June 25, 1983 is still gleaming in the mind of Indians.  When our former captain Kapil Dev held the trophy high at the Lord’s balcony, is one of the most unforgettable and historic moments to all Indians. And now it’s time to re-evaluate that moment for new generation, as Sanjay Puran Singh Chauhan, director of ‘Lahore’ in 2009 is going to make a film on India’s first Cricket World Cup winning.

Vishnu Vardhan Induri, who is the producer of the film, is also the Founder and President of Celebrity Cricket League. He is trying to keep the historicity by planning to shoot the film on a lavish scale and on actual locations. Mr. Vardhan is also in touch with the winners of 1983 World Cup, and said he will also request them to promote the film. And He is so surprised about still not having any film on this victory that he said that it’s bizarre that even after three decades of the achievement; no one produced a film based on this memorable incident.

           

According to the director he has to do a lot of research before starting the shoot. As the winning ceremony happened 31 years ago and those days were not so advanced in technology, but now everything has changed immensely. So he is trying his best to gather more and more information about the achievement and also trying to meet international players, who have won the World Cup before India.

Chauhan also added that the film which is provisionally titled 1983 will be started by September after locking the script and finalising the cast.

Finally we are gonna get our talent back as our talented bong beauty and former miss Universe Sushmita Sen is now in T-Town, going to stepping her first step in Bengali movie industry.

      

At last this Bollywood actress is doing her first debut in Bengali. And the one, who has fulfilled our dream of seeing her in Bengali movie, is one of the renowned directors of tolly industry, Srijit Mukherjee.  We will see her in Srijit Mukherjee’s next, ‘Nirbaak’.

After a long time all her fans are going to see her on silver screen. The last time she appeared on big screen was in 2010, in a Bollywood movie, ‘No Problem’. But didn’t she take a long time to decide for acting in Bengali movie industry? No, this is not too late for her as she saves her best for the last! She told that she was conscious about Bengali movies but she hadn’t enough confidence, and now she is full confident about starting her Bengali career.

                      

Before Srijit Mukherjee, many other directors approached her to star Bengali film but she refused. So why yes this time? Is it because it’s Srijit Mukherje, one of the best director of tolly industry? But according to her this is not the reason, she was attracted to the director as he was a very good human being, and also the script is also a big reason.

There is also something more startling for us. We will also see another talented director of Tollywood to star in this movie. After Mishwar Rahasya for the second time Kamaleshwar Mukherjee will appear in silver screen. It seems we are going to get a combo surprise in one pack!

Our actress is so excited for getting the opportunity of being a part of Srijit Mukherjee’s next, as the script was really promising to her. But our director and producer are also feeling honoured after getting Sushmita Sen as an actress in their upcoming film.

After all the waiting of us, our former Miss Universe is coming to fulfil our dream on this July. So, all set to watch our quintessential bong beauty with brains as a Bengali actress. And Best of Luck to the actress for her new start.

Actress Angelina Jolie has upset some Chinese film fans and has become a target of them after questioning director Ang Lee’s link to their nation while promoting Disney hit ‘Maleficent’ in Sanghai.

When she was asked to name her favourite Chinese director, reports contactmusic.com, she chose life of pie filmmaker and said, "I am not sure if you consider Ang Lee Chinese; he's Taiwanese, but he does many Chinese-language films with many Chinese artists and actors, and I think his works and the actors in his films are the ones I am most familiar with and very fond of”

           

The China Taiwan conflict arises from The Taiwan relations Act which was established to combat communism and aid in the spread of globalization and capitalism. Jolie’s remarks has angered the Chinese communists as well as Chinese fans as they still think Taiwan is a rouge province which belongs to the ‘People’s Republic of China’(PRC). Instead Taiwan is ruled by the Republic of China, who were deported from governing the whole of China in 1949. 

         

 Jolie’s statement prompted a series of scornful attacks online. While one described her as a ‘deranged Taiwan independence supporter’ another suggested that any person watching ‘Maleficent’ will be ‘traitorous’. Well, that’s one side of the coin. On the other hand in Taiwan one person wrote. "Her comment about Ang Lee being Taiwanese shows she fully deserves to be the goodwill ambassador for the UN. She is not afraid to tell the truth."

‘The Girl Interrupted’ actress is not the first American celebrity facing scathing attacks from the Chinese people. Her husband Brad Pitt also confronted the indignation after appearing in the film ‘Seven Years in Tibet’ which gave a sympathetic portrayal of Dalai Lama.  He was allegedly fastened on the travel backseat which banned him from seeing the country though he accompanied Jolie in her current promotional trip.

‘Maleficent’ was scheduled to release in China 20^th June.

Undoubtedly one of the beautiful women of Bollywood and our Miss India is seeking everyone’s attention at Cannes by her jaw-dropping appearance. She flaunted her beauty by a fish tail golden Roberto Cavalli gown. Not only the audience, her hubby also couldn’t stop him from praising her wifey! “Almost 52 hours without sleep! Eyes shutting…..and the Mrs. Shows up looking like this! OK…eyes wide open now!”

      

           She blasted the red carpet by her seductive look but our Bollywood diva did a mistake. It seems that we have seen this outfit before. Yeah, you heard right. Our Miss India has become a Copy Cat! She disappointed us by the copied version of her outfit! We saw an English TV star Kristen Chenoweth in the same outfit early of this year in Academy Awards.

Our Bollywood divas set trends for audience by their style statement, but nowadays they are in the trend of repeating styles.  It seems that our Bollywood’s creativity is now in zero position and their only style statement is copying the trend of Hollywood!

            

            Our Miss India’s red carpet look made everyone spellbound but who emphasized the same outfit for the first time, unfortunately didn’t get this kind of attention for the look. Then we must say that nowadays repeated version gets more weightiness than the original one!

Apart from all these arguments, it can be admitted that our Bachchan Bahu sparked the red carpet of Cannes by her new stormy, seductive curvaceous avatar. She just drew the eyesight of all by her royal expressions and confidence. This 40 years old proved that age is not a matter to her; she has that confidence to look even ten years younger. Now she has also enlisted herself in the list of Bollywood’s modern sexy mummies. Not only can that she also throw a challenge to her younger Bollywood beauties too! When others are too busy in gossiping about her repeated costume, this golden female deity is just gradually flaunting her new adorable look and sending those issues into burry! But there is a suggestion for our Miss India that a personality like her should stay away from plagiarism and it can be a crime too!

How many times a person should fall in love? No, we really don’t have any answer of such question, but that doesn’t mean that there shouldn’t be any limit of falling in love! Not only limit one should be very careful before participating in the dangerous game, the so called love!

    

        Our Tollywood actress Swastika Mukherjee also thinks like this. As she posted on face book on May 21, that “There should be a limit on the number of times you can fall in love because hearts needs to rest.”

        Love is the best feeling ever but sometimes it can be harmful too. It can send one to hospital too! As the actress was sent. Yes, the renowned actress Swastika Mukherjee committed suicide on Saturday morning. But by her friends it’s just a rumor, she didn’t commit suicide, she just cut her wrist with a glass of broken beer bottle in a fury.

      

            The truth is now unveiled. Swastika and the famous filmmaker and theatre director Suman Mukhopadhyay were with each other in Swiss hotel on Friday night. But their assignation professedly turned despicable, and left the actress with blood.

When she was bleeding, he didn’t even has any idea of the incident as he left the place after the agitation with her. But after being informed the whole incident, he didn’t even go see her in hospital. It seems that a love story suddenly turned into a hate story! But it’s not just his fault, as he was arrested and harassed by the police after the incident.

        Now there is nothing left to expose for the controversy’s favourite child! It was thought that the two were seeing each other during the shooting of Mukhopadhyay’s next film ‘Shesher Kobita’. But there near and dear ones are saying that their lovey dovey story was started after Swastika’s break up with Sreejit Mukherjee. As we are familiar with all her past relationships and break ups. The first gossip was started when she was in a relationship with actor Jeet, then after him we saw her with actor Parambrata, then  after the robust ending of the relationship, we saw the drunk and dancing Swastika on Sreejit’s lap! And this relationship is the most controversial, as this had the most dramatic end of all!

        

           This incident is the result of Swastika’s petulant behaviour. Her impatient grouchy nature also makes trouble for directors on the sets. Even she was advised a check up to psychiatrist!

        Her friends and family members are in worry for her as she always becomes assailable after a tragic end of relationships. And this time it has really become a cause of worry, as this is the most grievous ending she had ever face.

 This 33 years old divorcee actress always makes a controversy, becomes the food for gossip lovers! She not just addressed herself as controversy’s favourite child; she proved that again and again. And now it can be said that she really loves to be that! At least this time, after all these dramas her hearts really needs rest! and she should think twice before jumping into the pool of love again!
