Death of Sushant Singh has brought up the picture of intense involvement of Nepotism in the Bollywood industry. It was a time when the industry grew up with a few talented people and there was no preference of any star kids or popular iconic kids. During the period of 40s to the 90s, we have seen the rise of many good actors and actresses. Raj Kapoor, Manoj Kumar, Jitendra, Mithun Chakraborty has been the leading actors. This period in the Bollywood industry does not show any sign of Nepotism.

Actors were famous due to their acting without Nepotism
Manoj Kumar, Dilip Kumar, Jitendra, and Mithun Chakraborty are the popular actors of their times who evolved as the leading actors of the movies. Amitabh Bacchan is still one of the popular actors who do not need an introduction. It was the Golden times when movies were released on great numbers throughout the years. But it is after the 90s that the main influence of the power on Bollywood related to movies begun, the actors to be leading or acting has been under certain condition. It is the story of death suddenly of Divya Bharati who was ruling because of the extreme beautiful looks and her acting career that was on peak. Her fan followers were under shock as it was already been guessed that her death was a murder but was declared as an accident.

Few actors and actresses were able to survive the nepotism after their introduction in the Bollywood industry. New actors in recent decades are facing huge problems to make a career in the movies. Actors and actresses who are star kids are seen to establish, new comers who mostly is through Nepotism are the sufferers to be grounded.

Death of Sushant Singh Shattered the Bollywood industry.

It was in the lockdown period due to the coronavirus pandemic that the sudden news of the death of the popular actor Sushant Singh came around with media. He was fighting against depression for months and was following his treatment. He is most popular through his appearance in MS Dhoni it is the biopic of the popular Indian cricketer Dhoni.
After this, he was seen in the movie Chichhore, in which he has guided against suicide, it was released in 2019, while in 2020 it was his suicide that has shaken the entire youths and Bollywood. It was due to the use of Nepotism that new faces are not able to flourish in their career. Sushant Singh did not have an easy breakthrough in the acting career but could not exist until the end to realize success.

Actresses who are seen to face the issues to face the problem are the Miss Universe Sushmita Sen who disclosed her struggle against Nepotism. Kangana Ranaut who is still facing but has somehow been able to survive successfully in the industry. The influence of power in the acting platforms is killing the interests of the viewers and audiences to enjoy the movies which are revealing the same faces each time and pressurizing the newcomers to move out of the Bollywood industry.

Lockdown has shut down all streams and businesses including their stylists and designers of the Bollywood stars. They are the backbone of the stars who always have taken care of the bomb busting appearance at first glance of the stars.

But this has hardly made any difference in life and appearance of Hrithik Roshan while his looks to turn the 50s has no less deprived to stay connected with his followers and fans. Did the grey hairs make any changes insight of his followers? As he has embraced his sterling appearance gladly during the lockdown, his fans have appreciated and valued unveiling.

Greek Guy Hrithik Roshan in War

Bollywood movie ‘War’ has been rocking in which he was in the role of the powerful, intelligent soldier. His looks with an ace beard in the movie, he still carries the same but the only change that has pulled in during the lockdown is his smoky grey hairs. Hrithik Roshan has always been followed by large followers and fans because of his stunning dances in Bollywood. His recent dance moves in ‘War’ has created a sensation, especially a song based on ‘Holi’ cast with Tiger Shroff together is the unbeatable duet performance.

Hrithik Roshan is believed to be the fiery actor in Asia for his bold body and fitness, including his mesmerizing eyes that can connect brilliantly as we have seen through his acts and performances.

Just like in English language grammar is very important; one tiny little change can affect the entire form of the sentence or even change its meaning. Same way in films the casting is very crucial.

Can you imagine Shahid Kapoor in Singham or Saif Ali Khan in Haider or Rajpal Yadav in Gaddar!!

We know it sounds hilariously scary!! That’s why casting is very critical for the success of a movie and sometimes just a single change in the casting can change the entire storyline of the movie.

Lets have a look at top 10 Casting Couch to Casting “Ouch” cases:

1. Saif Ali Khan in LAGAAN

If Saif would have played Bhuvan then the storyline of the film would have been slightly different.

Instead of having a cricket match Saif would have married the ‘’Gori Mem’’ and ruled the village. And they lived happily ever after. After all he is a Nawab!!

2. Emraan Hashmi in Lage Raho Munna Bhai

Well the headline says it all…you are free to run your imaginations wild: p

3. Alia Bhatt in Ghajini

Let’s hope she doesn’t forget to eat those Memory pills.

4. Tiger Shroff in Udaan

This film would no longer be about freedom but Martial arts.

5. Amitabh Bachchan and Rajnikanth in Andaz Apna Apna

Though an iconic film with Bollywood current raging stars but newcomers compared to the names mentioned above.

It would be a delight to see what these two iconic Superstars of Indian film industry will do if they were to be caste in its sequel.

Not only Actors but a change in Director can transform the movie completely.

For e.g.:

6. Anurag Kashyap as the director of Raamleela

The title of the film will be the first thing to change from ‘Goliyon ki Raasleela’ to ‘GAliyon ki Raasleela’.

Now imagine casting being done on the basis of film titles:

7. Pk – Pankaj Kapoor

It would be interesting to see Pankaj Sir as Pk and there is no doubt that he would have done justice to his role.

Well, we all remember Matru Ki Bijlee Ka Mandola

8. Tusshar Kapoor, Uday Chopra and Jackky Bhagnani in 3 idiots

God knows what will happen in the movie or to Raju Hirani..??

And there would surely be no engineering students left in the country after watching this movie.

9. Rajpal Yadav in Koi Mil Gaya

This will make one person very happy apart from Rajpal Yadav himself. It’s Rakesh Roshan, no need to spend money on costumes and special effects.

And finally….

10. Sunny Leone in Bang Bang

No comments. Bas naam hi kafi hai: p

Where there is Bollywood there is a Double Meaning!!

Be it dialogues, gestures and even songs. But actually this is a very old tradition.

Even the old Bollywood songs had a lot of Double meaning. Let’s have a look…

1.  Chad Gaya Upar Re – Gutur Gutur

This song is from the movie Dalaal -“Chad Gaya Upar Re..!” Wow! What a straight forward message! God knows what they were thinking while making this song.

2.  G Phaad ke – Happy Ending

This one is the heights of bringing physicality into the song. “Nacho Saare G Phaad Ke” Seriously? What are you exactly trying to say? We guess the lyricist was probably in his washroom when he wrote the lyrics.

3.  Bang Bang – Bang Bang

Well looks like the movie name was not enough to mislead the audience, they made the whole song on the title ‘Bang Bang’ and even the lyrics are making it sound like an adult film.

4.  Main Tera Tota – Chunky Pandey

Let’s hope the PETA people don’t hear this song and actually no one else on this earth should.

5.  Pingre Mein Popat Bole

Now looks like Bollywood is too obsessed with the word ‘Tota’ or ‘Popat’ because clearly they can’t get enough of it.

6.  Aa Re Pritam Pyare – Rowdy Rathod

Apart from the over exposure and lusty expressions in the song, it certainly had the dance bar wala feel to it.

7.  Bebo Me Bebo – Kambakht Ishq

 
‘Bebo Me Bebo’ ‘Le Lo Gi..Le Lo’. What are you selling exactly? Is that even legal?

8.  Bhaag DK Bose – Delhi Belly

All we could hear was a few lyrics and a lot of “Gangs of Wasseypur Slang!!”

9.  Aao Na – Haider

This song can give you the feeling of a red light area! Especially the first line… “Aare Aao Nah..!”

10.  Bedardi Raja – Delhi Belly

A second nomination from the same film and this is just completely a perverted song. Because what else do you mean by “Kachi me kali hu..Mujhe pura khila jaa”

Do you know any other Bollywood song with a double meaning? You can write about it in the Comments section below.

Also the next time if you are humming any of these songs then do remember what they really mean!!

If a movie is based on a sensitive or debatable topic then it’s unlikely that it will be approved by the Central Board of Film Certification.

A lot of controversial Indian films were given no card from the Censor Board in the past. Many times film fraternity is left aghast by such bans on movies and documentaries.

Below is the list of ill fated movies from the last decade which never saw release in India due to the censor board.

1. Un freedom (2015)

Florida-based director Raj Amit Kumar made his directorial debut with this cult classic on homosexuality. The movie starred Adil Hussain and Victor Bannerjee as the main protagonists. This movie didn’t get the green signal for it was based on a controversial topic.

2. Gandu ( 2010)

Gandu is a bold monochrome Bangla movie by Kaushik Mukherjee. Censor Board did not allow the release of the movie as it had overt sexual scenes.

3. Dazed in Doon (2010)

Dazed in Doon is a movie crafted by Ashvin Kumar. The movie didn’t receive the censor certificate as it allegedly ‘spoils’ the name of the Doon School.

4. Kaum de here (2005)

The film chronicled the events of the assassination of the very famous leader, Indira Gandhi. And censor board didn’t allow its release as they felt that the film may cause communal tension in the country.

5. Hava Aney Dey a.k.a Let the wind blow (2004)

Partho Sen-Gupta’s film depicts the growing tension between the arch rival nations: Indian and Pakistan. Censor board suggested so many cuts that the movie was just left with 20 minutes!  So the director refused to accept these suggestions and this movie was never on 70 mm Screen.

6. Paanch (2002)

Paanch is an unreleased Indian crime thriller film loosely based on Joshi Abhyankar serial Murder case. The censor board objected the overt violent scenes and many other explicit depictions.

This shows how it’s difficult in India to get a certificate for any coming-of-age movies!

We always compare our Bollywood heroes with the Hollywood counterparts but no one compares or even talks about Villains. They are the ones who make the movies so entertaining and without a villain a hero might not become a hero in the first place.

So, we thought of putting up our Bollywood Villains Vs Hollywood Villains

1.  Voldemort Vs Kancha Cheena

Mandva Mera Hai Vs Hogwards Mera Hai

2.  Joker Vs Mogambo

Why So Serious? Vs Mogambo Khush Hua..!

3.  Godfather Vs Lion

I’ll Make Him An Offer He Can’t Refuse Vs Saara Sheher Mujhe Lion Ke Naam Se Jaanta Hai

4.  Magneto Vs Chatur Singh Chitah        

He doesn’t like humans Vs He doesn’t like high pitch sounds of humans like (Chatur Singh Chitah ke kaano ko Uchi aawaz nahi pasand)

5.  Jeff Bridges Vs Bob Christo

Looks like the case of ‘brothers from different mother’.

6.  Red Skull Vs Shakaal

They both wanted to rule the world and they both failed miserably!!

7.  Green Goblin Vs Langda Tyagi

Is it just us or do they actually somehow resemble a lot in a weird way!

8.  Ian Shaw Vs Ra.One

Well they both kind a made it tough for the audience to hate the villain because of their sexy charms.

9.  Gabbar Vs Gabbar

Finally the Biggest villain of Bollywood, even Hollywood doesn’t have an alternative for this.

So we thought of putting up old Gabbar Singh Vs the new Gabbar Is Back! Howzat!!

So who do you think will win this battle; Hollywood Villains Or our Bollywood Baddies?

Celebrity Flaws – There are many who think Bollywood celebs are PERFECT i.e. they have no body issues, at all. But is that really true? Obviously NOT. Celebrities post their beautiful pictures on Instagram, Twitter & there are many who think that they’ve flawless skin i.e. No acne, No pimple problems etc, etc. But is that really true? Obviously NOT. To prove it all, many celebs decided to prove it.

Yes, they took a stand to show how “No one’s perfect” saying is actually true. We are all humans & problems like acne. Pimples, stretch marks etc is pretty common.

Like I said, many celebrities took a step to prove it.

Here are some –

1. Sonam Kapoor

Sonam Kapoor is a “Fashionista Of Bollywood.” No doubt, she’s gorgeous. Sonam Kapoor has managed to grab limelight by giving some excellent performances. But does that mean she’s PERFECT? Obviously no. Sonam Kapoor bravely revealed having weight issues, saggy skin and even having troubles with facial hair. She might look stunning in pictures but there’s something that bothers her too.

2. Vidya Balan

She is often criticized for her weight. But do you think she gives a damn? Absolutely NOT. Vidya Balan embraces everything about her. “Weight gain” is not a problem. According to the actress, every women should embrace their curves no matter what. Recently, a reporter asked her about “gaining weight” & she gave him a fitting reply. It proved she is not ashamed of her size & no one should ever be.

We LOVE you for that.

3. Rani Mukherjee

Short height is often considered as an issue. Rani Mukherjee knew this & yet decided to give a shot in acting industry. Look at her now. She’s winning hearts & she proved that height should not be an issue. Once you consider your flaw is NOT a big deal, others around you will certainly get impress with your confidence.

4. Padma Lakshmi

There’s a scar on her arm and she isn’t afraid to show it. When asked about it, she says “My body is almost a map of my life” . She isn’t afraid to flaunt her scar & this is a lesson to learn.

5. Kajol

Do you have a unibrow? Ok, then that’s completely FINE. You don’t have to get rid of it. Kajol proved that having a unibrow is not a “big deal” and it is completely ok.

6. Chrissy Teigen

Remember the time when Chrissy Teigen embraced her stretch marks? She did it by posting a close up pic on Instagram. There are many who hate their body because they’ve stretch marks but Chrissy’s one post proved that it’s okay to have them.

7. Ashley Graham

Ashley Graham is an inspiration to all women out there. To tell people “Love the skin you are in” Ashley posted this picture and captioned it as “I workout. I do my best to eat well. I love the skin I’m in. And I’m not ashamed of a few lumps, bumps or cellulite.. and you shouldn’t be either.”

8. Lorde

She’s the best, right? Lorde posted this pic & captioned it as “in bed in Paris with my acne cream on.”

I think that’s enough to prove “No one’s PERFECT.”

If you wake up as Salman Khan – Controversy’s favourite child, Bollywood’s Bhaijaan, the most eligible bachelor of India is cut from a different cloth and they don’t make that fabric anymore.

He enjoyed enormous success in Bollywood making his way to the list of Khans and not to mention, he is the most badass of them all. We love him the way he is nonetheless. We have always had wordless admission to his devil-may-care attitude on screen especially in the Pandeyji avtar.

No denying, we would kill for living his life, and here are the hilarious things that might happen if you woke up as Salman Khan:

If you wake up as Salman Khan –

1 – You will move shirtless:

The first privilege of being Salman Khan is that you can move about shirtless with impunity and you will not attract any ire from the moral police. No one will judge you for your carefully adorned and swollen midriff because you will get abs by default.

2 – You will Date Aishwarya Rai and Katrina Kaif back to back:

Salman and Aishwarya were quite a couple, goodlooking to say the least but luck had others plans so they didn’t work out. But once you are Salman Khan, you get the immunity to propose Aishwarya once again and when you are done, there will be Katrina waiting in the queue.

3 – You will time travel to the night of hit-and-run and undo it:

The incident that drove his image and mental peace at sparse, surely needs to be undone. Who wants to go to the grave with the sin of committing murder? So if you are Salman Khan for a day, you would travel back in time and refuse all the drinks that would be offered to you so that you can stick to road safety rules while driving back home.

4 – You would marry:

Now that his bachelorhood is a national concern and all the mothers are readying up her daughters to catch his fancy, you would just take your pick from the bevy of beautiful ladies and finally take the nuptial vows.

5 – You would click a selfie with a black buck:

Just to prove that you love animals, not to garner Instagram likes, mind you. That selfie might lead the government into believing that if you weren’t driven by pestering by your co-stars, you would never indulge in the killing.

6 – You will publicly apologise for singing for the movie ‘Hero’:

And, for that matter promoting it. Come on, it was too much the filmmakers asked of him to promote a movie starring Suraj Pancholi. And then, you would publicly apologize for singing the title track that almost made us believe you are reciting a poetry and music eluded you.

This is what happens If you wake up as Salman Khan – Being Salman Khan is not a child’s play, phew! But we wish you all the luck. May your dream comes true, literally Bruh!

Girls hostels – Bollywood is a raving maniac about teen lives and they spin a yarn about them too giving us insurmountable goals. Like in recent past, a movie was released called Student of The Year which shed light on the lives of students belonging from well-to-do households walking into college in designer clothes.

Of course that is way out of our league and we just end up with the stomach in knots. However, they are keen on showing the hostel lives and leave no stone unturned to glamourize it.

However, the real hostel lives not a bed of roses always and you come out as a better person, of course by experiencing stern realities of life from a government hostel. And trust us, those experiences are nothing at par with the ones shown in Bollywood movies.

Girls hostels –

1 – Girls don’t roam around in sexy lingerie around the hostel:

Well, if you are udging a common girls hostels bythe ones shown in Karan Johar movies, then you my dear is really ambitious. This is a common sight in the government hostels of hanging worn-out shorts like chunks of meat hanging in meat shops.

2 – There is not even change of clothes for 5 days in a row:

Yeah, because washing clothes becomes really tedious in a crowded girls’ hostel or we are just way too lazy to do so. Besides, there won’t be any song sequence happening on us so that we need to change costumes. Meh!

3 – The cat fights in girls hostels are as sexy as shown in the movies:

There is a lot of hand-to-hand combat, grouping, back-bitching involved. Even days of bullying and cornering the victim is also a predominant phenomenon in a government girls’ hostel unlike the ones in Bollywood movies where ‘gentle’ women fight as if hurling flower petals at each other.

4 – Girls don’t pillow fight at night:

The Girls hostels girls certainly don’t pillow fight at night. Instead, they keep awake until late munching on munchies and mug up for semesters. They even soothe their mid-night hunger pangs by making Maggi at 3:00 am. Guess what? They don’t even get a proper pillow to keep under their head, forget pillow fighting.

5 – Girls don’t only discuss clothes and make-up in the hostel:

Well, there is a serious dearth of  Sarah Jessica Parker of Sex and the City or Jenifer Anniston of F.R.I.E.N.D.S  in the government girls hostels.

6 – The Wifi is El Dorado for government hostel girls:

Well, not much into being Papa ki pari like the Bollywood girls’ hostel counterparts. We only ask from god for a good WiFi connection so as to finish 3 series of Game of Thrones before the semester.

7 – Not always ‘Lesbian action’ go behind the doors:

Sorry, to burst your bubble, but no!

Girls hostels – Glamourizing is good, but running miles away from reality makes you a laughing stock. Wake up, Bollywood!

Releasing films on the internet – Earlier this year, Kunal Kohli’s ‘Phir Se’ and Ronnie Screwvala’s ‘Love Per Square Foot’ turned out to be the first films to release directly on the internet.

Both the films premiered on Netflix, world’s biggest digital streaming platform. There was a time when certain films used to be released directly on television on DVDs but theatres continue to remain the most prominent medium for showcasing films.

But, releasing films on the internet is not a bad not idea either.

Here are 5 reasons Releasing films on the internet is a good idea:

1. Wide reach

Streaming websites like Amazon Prime and Netflix are subscribed to by people in more than 190 countries. So, while all these people may not come to a theatre to watch a film, they will be more than willing to watch it in their confines of their homes whenever they want to. It invariably results in large number of people watching your film without you having to go through distribution channels.

2. No censorship

One of the things that bother filmmakers and even viewers aboutcinema is censorship. Often, important scenes are chopped off from a film at the whims and fancies of the members of the Censor Board. Internet gives you the opportunity to exercise your freedom responsibly. While there is a certain line, you must not cross, you will get ample amount of freedom to express yourself as a filmmaker if you opt for a digital release.

3. No middlemen involved

Releasing a film often turns out to be a stressful job for the producers and the distributors, more so if the film does not boast of any star. Getting the right release date, ample number of shows in theatres and then, waiting for the box-office result can turn out to be an arduous task. When you release a film digitally, you do not have to go through any of these ordeals. You just have to strike a good deal with the streaming website and you are good to go.

4. Sustains well

Films release in theatres on a particular date and are taken down after a couple of weeks (or even days) when the number of people coming to watch it eventually reduces. When somebody misses to watch it in theatres, they will have to wait for some time before the film arrives on a digital platform, DVD or television. Once you sell your film to a digital streaming website, they will put it on their website and people can watch it months after it has been put up there.

5. No pressure of box-office

As a producer, once you sell at a certain price to a digital streaming website, you do not have to think about any other financial outcome. This is unlike releasing films in theatres where you have to keep a tab on box-office figures and are answerable to so many people. Once you settle on a good deal, you do not have to mount the weight of box-office numbers on you shoulders.

These are the Releasing films on the internet – As stated earlier, theatres are the most popular medium for showing films and rightfully so. However, releasing a film on a digital platform has its benefits too. If you have made a small, non-star cast film and are worried about releasing it in theatres, you could give digital a thought.

Bollywood celebs childhood pictures – Being a celebrity needs colossal patience as the media is always on the prowl for potential ‘news’ about them.

Their personal lives are hair-split over to serve the entertainment cravings of the masses, to their added chagrin, and to the lowest low of moral grounds, some celeb divas have also been questioned for not losing post-pregnancy weight faster. But a gentle reminder here, the celebrities too are human beings imbued with pretty grounded emotions like us. It’s the redundancy of media sometimes that see news in them.

Having said that, the celebrities have spent as vivacious childhoods as ours, so there is no point discriminating. Some even spent their in rags and made it to the riches; all have been spent in abundance of joy nonetheless.

So, here are some Bollywood celebs childhood pictures that you will completely drool at if you love babies.

Bollywood celebs childhood pictures –

1 – Sradhha Kapoor:

3 – Ranveer Singh:

Ranveer has set the media abuzz with his whacky fashion sense and bombarded us with brilliant performances in quick succession that helped him made a name for himself, the most current one being Alauddin Khilji in Padmavat. However, his antics must have been same in his younger years and here’s the proof.

4 – Sunny Leone:

This Indian born Canadian pornstar has set the hotness metre soaring in Indian silver screen. Sunny Leone is the name. But who has ever imagine she would look as mundane and simple in her childhood days, things glamour do to a person. Phew!

5 – Sridevi:

My heart skipped a beat writing her name but what could one do when god had other plans. May her soul rest in peace but this picture rekindles her memories all right. Sridevi was born to rule the silver screen having been debuting as a child star in movies.

6 – Aishwarya Rai:

Her beauty is the epitome and her childhood picture is well emblematic of a potential diva who would set new beauty standards in Bollywood, no wonder she did.

7 – Aliaa Bhatt:

Our cutie-patootie Bollywood sweetheart was as adorable in her childhood years and here’s the proof.

An era ended in Bollywood after the Screen Legend Sridevi breathed her last on 25^th February, 2018 and the cause of death was a massive cardiac arrest.

She has just turned 54 and was in Dubai to attend the wedding ceremony of her nephew Mohit Marwah. She was accompanied by her husband Boney Kapoor and daughter Khushi in that event.

It was her marvellous meditation on the pursuit of glamour that made her our icon, both in terms of beauty and acting. Sridevi, who had a charismatic draw on the silver screen, has disappeared in thin air.  Name a film where Sridevi was not good, that she did not floor us with. In the films like Sadma, Mr.India, Lamhe, English Vinglish, Mom et al, the seasoned actress in her stopped traffic with her prowess.

Sridevi will be remembered in tears and here are the 10 ways she enriched Indian cinema by her adept touch:

1. She was the first actress to mimic Charlie Chaplin:

We were in awe for her when she effortlessly pulled off ‘Charlie Chaplin’ act in Mr. India, that was show-stealer of sorts and definitely stole the thunder of Anil Kapoor. That was Sridevi, those big, bright and expressive eyes will continue to haunt us.

2. She gave the first sensuous ‘Rain-song’:
Of course you know which one we are talking about, the ‘Kaate nahi katte hai’ from Mr.India where she looked downright sultry.

3. She dominated Indian cinema throughout 1980s:

She threw other contemporaries of her out of gear during her rule in the 1980s. She was unstoppable ever since and gave us films like Himmatwala, Jaani Dost, Mawali, Tohfa, Balidaan, Sadma etc.

4. She was the first female superstar of Bollywood:

Comes as no surprise, in view of her successful Bollywood career, Sridevi was won the benediction of the title, ‘first female superstar of Bollywood’.

5. Aside from Bollywood, she contributed in other regional movies too:

Shridevi was born as Shree Amma Yanger Ayappan who later came to charm hearts in Bollywood. But before that, she acted in many Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam and Kannada films.

6. She became the first highest paid actress of Bollywood:

We rave over the highest paid actresses in Bollywood now and the likes are Alia Bhatt, Deepika Padukone, Katrina Kaif but back then, in the time when heroines were made to run around the trees for just rotten peanuts, Sridevi became the first highest paid actress of Bollywood, thereby setting a new standard for the upcoming actresses.

7. She was the iconic ‘Yash Chopra heroine’:

With the release of Chandni, Sridevi became all the rage in Bollywood which her white Dupatta swinging in the air and giving butterflies to many a men. Her dreamy beauty has set a yardstick for Yash Chopra heroines whose footprints were followed by Madhuri Dixit, Kajol, Anushka Sharma, Parineeti Chopra and others.

8. CNN-IBN ranked her one of the most sensuous heroines of Yash Chopra:

No wonder for the epitome of beauty and grace she was. Also, if it was not for Sridevi, Chandni would not have become one of the biggest block busters of Bollywood.

9. She won Filmfare for six times:

For Sadma (1984), for Chandni (1990), for Khuda Gawah (1993), for Gumrah (1994), for Laadla (1995), for Judaai (1998), for English Vinglish (2013), for MOM (2018).

10. She gave Madhuri Dixit major career goals:

Actually vice versa. Both Madhuri and Sridevi were the finest actors of their time hence arch-rivals. They both continued to climb the career ladder thereby inspiring each other and we had our divas to boast of.

That is Sridevi for you.

Sri, you will be solely missed, Rest in Cinema!

Rapunzel braid – Shilpa Shetty is one of the smartest actresses who still hogs the limelight and steals the thunder in the red carpets.

She is married to the industrialist Raj Kundra and they have an adorable son Viaan. She recently posted some saree-clad pictures of her in Instagram which has created ripples in the media and now she is making the headlines with her new hairstyles.

Lately, Shilpa has released her yoga and fitness video to inspire women around the country for living healthy and looking good. She too is a style icon who can surely give the contemporary actresses a neck-to-neck competition.

Have you ever visited Shilpa’s Instagram account? There you will find awesome cookery videos and her Sunday-binge updates but one thing is for sure, you can’t stare off the pictures she is seen wearing a saree in.

Shilpa got all creative with her saree looks but if you follow her religiously her Shilpa Shetty hair styles too are downright creative. This time Shilpa has seen sporting a Rapunzel braid which was definitely a business class update.

A Rapunzel braid is a quick hairstyle that anybody can do. It also goes down well with all sorts of looks such as western and Indian, gowns and sarees. A Rapunzel braid belongs to the same list as French braid, Fishtail braid and the mermaid braid. When you are running short of ideas, Rapunzel braids come to your instant rescue. This is a five-strand braid so takes some time but once done well, you are sorted for the classiest look ever.

Remember the Super Dancer Chapter 2 look of Shilpa Shetty?

Where she was styled by Sanjana Batra who chose a Mint Green Saree from Roshni Chopra and juttis from Fizzy Goblet to go with it? The look was sealed with ear-rings from Varun Raheja. Which took away all the attention from her entire ensemble was the side braid which was not the routine 3-part braid but an upgraded version of Rapunzel braid which looked rather painstalking than easy-breezy. Hairstylist Sheetal Khan seemed have a keen eye for details so she took ample time for creating it. We also laud Sjay Shelar for giving her an edgy make-up with golden mascara and Pink Lipstick to rock the look.

Here is a small tip:

In case if you have layered hair-cut, make sure your hair hasn’t been washed for a day so that it becomes more ductile and easier to make the plates.

Rapunzel braid – Shilpa has given us hairstyle goals always and this one is a new addition in that repertoire. This time she gave her soft curls a ditch and we are completely besotted.

Movies about media and journalists – The relationship between Bollywood and Media was a bittersweet symphony.

They both count on each other for survival in this time and age when today’s population has more leaning towards digital media. Media derives most meat from Bollywood because without Bollywood, there will be no gossip and hence nothing will be there to bolster their TRP.

Media is the third pillar of the society so it has inspired many filmmakers to make film focussing on the profession of journos among which, some of films are truly inspirational.

Movies about media and journalists –

1. Page 3 (2005):

Madhur Bhandarkar dug deeper in the quicksand of Entertainment media by his film Page 3. This film thrives around the page 3 culture and how ostensive their way of life is in the Mumbai city. There is a popular belief that you can’t qualify as a celebrity if you don’t get featured on Page 3. Konkona Sen Sharma’s role in this movie as a Page 3 journo grabbed all the limelight.

2. Peepli Live (2010):

Peepli Live was a shattering slap on the face of hardcore media of today’s time. This film revolves around a farmer whose brother encourages him to commit suicide.

Then they fateful father avenges his son’s killing through the power of social media.

4. Dil Se (1998):

Dil Se deals with a sensitive issue where a radio presenter falls in love with a suicide bomber. The film is based on the backdrop of insurgency in North East India and is directed by Mani Ratnam. In the film, there is a fair share of romance and injustice of the society and when things reach saturation point, the two lovers embrace death.

5. No One Killed Jessica (2011):

This film is based on the high profile Jessica Lal murder case where Vidya Balan plays Sabrina and Rani Mukherjee plats the vociferous journalist who probes into the case and unmasks some hiding kingpins. Their joint effort shakes the base of the corrupt system and the good triumphs over evil.

6. Rann (2010):

The film was directed by Ram Gopal Verma in 2010, a political drama film that borders on the nuances of journalism industry. A principled CEO of a television channel gets manipulated by his son and son-in-law to frame a false story against the PM but he understands his fault soon after but turning back the events in the right order costs him many things in his personal life.

7. Nayak (2001):

This film tells a story of a common man’s revival as a Chief Minister of the state. It was a remake of Shankar’s 1999 film Mudhalvan where an honest and ambitious TV reported accepts the open challenge given by the Chief Minister of the state to replace him for one day but the populace chooses him over the previous Chief Minister for a longer term for his philanthropic works.

8. Phir Bhi Dil Hai Hindusthani:

It gives us a clear picture of the real world behind the cameras. It unmasks the corrupt politicians and takes us in a ride inside the media houses where you get to know how a news is made a hit. It also sheds light on the fact how media can turn the power system upside down.

9. Lakshya:

This film is not typically based on Media but Preity Zinta’s character was loosely inspired by renowned journalist Barkha Dutt’s real life adventurous, most notable one being the live reporting from Kargil war ground.

These are the Movies about media and journalists  –  These media films show how deserted our social system would be if it didn’t have the fourth wall, media.
