Foreign language musicals don't usually make waves in America, but "Rrr" was an exception. The Indian Telugu-language epic became a global phenomenon after it was released by Netflix in 2022, subtitled in 15 different languages and dubbed in several different regional dialects including Hindi and Tamil. It even won an Academy Award for its original song "Naatu Naatu," competing in a category with all English language films.
"Rrr" follows the fictionalized friendship of two major political leaders from different parts of the country. The pair are opposites in every way, but a common goal of revolution eventually joins them. Director S.S. Rajamouli employs symbolism throughout the film to illustrate the contrast and companionship of these two characters as their friendship ebbs and flows.
Their conflict culminates in an action-packed fight sequence. Ram and Bheem fight with fire and water. These elements are linked to the native land and just like the men that wield them,...

Acclaimed actor Pankaj Tripathi said that he never felt that he has “arrived” in the industry, and shared how he works with equal sincerity and honesty in every project.

Choona, the brand-new political satire that became a heist drama, will be reminiscent of Steven Soderbergh’s Ocean’s Eleven. Choona takes the audience through the whole world of the political Game of Thrones and how bribery, extortion, corruption, scheming, and plotting become inherent parts of this circle. To break this cycle, a bunch of people want to go against the most influential politician in the state. It would require a huge amount of manpower to put him out of power through a robbery. What will the gang’s plan of action be, and how will they make sure the heist is a success?
Spoilers Ahead
Who Is Avinash Shukla?
Choona began with the state minister for urban development, Avinash Shukla, requesting the presence of his loyal Pandit because he complained of being haunted by dreams that predicted his defeat. Avinash, who is known as Shuklaji, is a religious man, a staunch believer,...

Comedy is the most difficult of all genres, and we have all seen some wonderfully amusing films that made us convulse with laughter or made us chuckle and crease up. Kishore Kumar’s films, notably ‘Half Ticket’ and ‘Padosan’; or many of Mahmood’s comic capers are hard to emulate. Priyadarshan’s films, in the recent past, have had us rolling with uncontrollable laughter, but an out-and-out comedy is still few and far between.
After the two successful franchises of ‘Fukrey’ in 2013 and ‘Fukrey Returns’ in 2017, writer Vipul Vig and director Mrighdeep Singh Lamba must have thought that they could pull off another entertainer and laugh all the way to the bank.
No harm in dreaming, but didn’t they know that they needed a script – a solid one at that – to allow fine actors to play around with?

Washington, July 30 (Ians) J. Robert Oppenheimer, the American physicist called the “father of the atom bomb”, had tried and failed to prevent then Indian Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru from supplying the US material — especially thorium — needed for a bomb far deadlier than his creation.
Oppenheimer’s appeal was conveyed in a phone call to the then Indian Ambassador to US, Vijaya Lakshmi Pandit, who reported it to her brother, Prime Minister Nehru, in a letter dated February 10, 1951, reproduced in a 2014 book by her daughter Nayantara Sahgal.
It came amidst intense negotiations between the two countries over an India request for emergency food grains assistance that Pandit had conveyed to the Harry S. Truman administration just weeks before in December.
According to the Emergency Food Aid Ac signed by Truman in June 1951, India was promised 2 million tonnes of food grains but among the conditions attached was the continue supplies of “strategic materials”, which,...

Communal violence has been an issue all countries have been facing for centuries, which is, however, somewhat more intense in India still, where the clashes between the Hindus and the Muslims have resulted in a number of victims through the years. In “Bhagwan Bharose”, Shiladitya Bose tries to find out how the intolerance that leads to such incidents is born, by focusing on the lives of two kids in 1980's India.
“Bhagwan Bharose” review is part of the Submit Your Film Initiative
Bhola and Shambhu are two children living in rural India, in a small village. They get their teachings from Pandit-ji, a man who essentially explains the world through Hindu mythology, shaping up the kids in the village in that fashion. As they have no conception of any other alternative, the two never question what their teacher tells them. Things, however, begin to change, when Bhola's father returns to...

After his pan-Indian biggie, ‘Kabzaa’, producer Anand Pandit is once again foraying into the regional market, with the Marathi family entertainer, ‘Baap Manus’. Headlined by Yogesh Phulphagar, this film is Pandit’s sixth association with actor Pushkar Jog after ‘Well Done Baby’ and ‘Victoria’.
Dwelling on the plot, Anand Pandit says, “This emotional drama takes us through the layered emotions of a father who has to raise his daughter single-handedly. As a father, I could easily resonate with the storyline, and working on this project was an emotional experience for me. ‘Baap Manus’ is truly a universally relatable film.”
Pandit has produced the film along with Roopa Pandit and Pushkar Jog and he shares, “Pushkar and I work well together because for us, a well-crafted storyline is the most important regardless of its genre. It could be an action thriller, a comedy or a horror film but it must have a strong story.

Kolkata, March 28 (Ians) Kolkata Knight Riders head coach Chandrakant Pandit is hoping that Shreyas Iyer will be back very soon and feels the right-hander can still play a part for the team in the upcoming Indian Premier League (Ipl) 2023.
The recurrence of back pain has kept Shreyas out of the tournament for the time being. He has been doing his rehab but there is very little clarity over the possibility of him returning at some stage.
As a result, the two-time champion Kkr has named Nitish Rana as their skipper for the upcoming season.
“Whatever little cricket I have played or coached, I have never gone back over things like squad unavailability. Shreyas’s absence will make a difference since he is important, but this is truly unfortunate. We are hoping Shreyas will be back very soon and that will make a lot of difference to the team,” Pandit said...
