Kamal hassan, has been inspiring so many upcoming actors and actresses in the film industry. Recently Bollywood Cute actress Rani Mukerji has been inspired by the Kamals Dance.
The 80s’ and South films continue to be a source of inspiration for Bollywood movies and dance numbers. The latest one being the quirky song Dream Wake up from Rani Mukerji’s upcoming film Aiyyaa. A South cult classic number from the eighties filmed on Kamal Haasan is said to be the inspiration behind the song. The song picturised on Rani and South star Prithviraj, who makes his debut in Bollywood, is slated to be launched today. Not only the song, even the dance has been choreographed keeping Haasan’s dance number in mind, informs a source.
Rani is said to have trained extensively for the dance number. Even Vaibhavi Merchant, who has choreographed it, had to research a lot to get the steps rights. “That is because she was trying that dance form for the first time,” adds the source. The song was shot within two days in Hyderabad’s Ramoji Film City to get the setup as well as the essence of the South right. Aiyya releasing next month has Rani playing a Marathi girl, falling in love with a Tamil guy played by Prithviraj.
Bollywood star Akshay Kumar, who became a father for the second time on Tuesday, says his newborn daughter resembles his wife Twinkle.
"We are blessed with a lovely baby girl, who looks just like her mother and grandmother (veteran actress Dimple Kapadia)," the 45-year-old said in a statement.
Twinkle delivered the baby, their second child after 10-year-old son Aarav, at the Breach Candy Hospital on Tuesday morning.
Akshay was in Jaipur on Monday evening to promote his forthcoming film Oh My God, but rushed back to Mumbai to be by his wife's side. He is extremely happy.
"I have no words to express my happiness. I would like to thank everyone for their blessings and best wishes," added the actor.
"Twinkle was blessed with a baby girl this morning," Twinkle's mother, veteran actress Dimple Kapadia, told IANS.
The 23-year-old para-medical student was shifted out of Safdarjung Hospital to Medanta Hospital in New Delhi.
There had been rumours earlier that the survivor could be shifted to Medanta Hospital in New Delhi soon. However, the government had also said earlier that she could be sent out of country for treatment on their expenses. Reportedly, some relatives of the survivors were issued visas to accompany her to Singapore for further treatment.
Safdarjung hospital sources said the physiotherapy student was being shifted to Singapore. The name of the hospital was not known immediately.
Sources said the girl, who is on ventilator support since she was admitted to Safdarjung hospital on December 16 after she was gang-raped in a moving bus in South Delhi, was being taken in a special chartered plane.
The condition of the girl had deteriorated and she was placed on ventilator with grave injuries in the stomach and intestines after she was brought to the hospital eleven days ago. She bore signs of having been beaten with a blunt object.
The incident took place on last Sunday night when the girl along with her male friend, who is an engineer and currently working in a firm, took a White Line bus from Munirka in south Delhi to Dwarka at around 10.00 pm. 16-tips-to-prevent-rape-stop-this-shame- Share this with your friends During the journey, the girl was allegedly gand raped by a group of five to six men and even assaulted her when she resisted their attempt. The victim's friend was also beaten up and both were thrown off the bus near Mahipalpur flyover an hour later.
If there was ever a perfect comeback script for a bowler, then Harbhajan Singh made sure the world saw it. His 4/12 will go a long way in staking a claim for a place in the Indian set-up after a considerable gap. Irfan Pathan and Piyush Chawla also did well to take two wickets each after India's batsmen piled on 170 runs. The performances will give MS Dhoni a selection headache but the skipper has gone on record saying that he'd rather have that than a lack of choice.
All my friends. Settle down let me talk, I will get more and more emotional (crowd gets louder as he composes himself). My life, between 22 yards for 24 years, it is hard to believe that that wonderful journey has come to an end, but I would like to take this opportunity to thank people who have played an important role in my life.
Also, for the first time in my life I am carrying this list, to remember all the names in case I forget someone. I hope you understand. It's getting a little bit difficult to talk but I will manage.
The most important person in my life, and I have missed him a lot since 1999 when he passed away, my father. Without his guidance, I don't think I would have been standing here in front of you. He gave me freedom at the age of 11, and told me that [I should] chase my dreams, but make sure you do not find shortcuts. The path might be difficult but don't give up, and I have simply followed his instructions. Above all, he told me to be a nice human being, which I will continue to do and try my best. Every time I have done something special [and] showed my bat, it was [for] my father.
My mother, I don't know how she dealt with such a naughty child like me. I was not easy to manage. She must be extremely patient. For a mother, the most important thing is that her child remains safe and healthy and fit. That was what she was most bothered and worried about. She took care of me for the last 24 years that I have played for India, but even before that she started praying for me the day I started playing cricket. She just prayed and prayed and I think her prayers and blessings have given me the strength to go out and perform, so a big thank you to my mother for all the sacrifices.
In my school days, for four years, I stayed with my uncle and aunt because my school was quite far from my home, and they treated me like their son. My aunt, after having had a hard day's play, I would be half asleep and she would be feeding me food so I could go again and play tomorrow. I can't forget these moments. I am like their son and I am glad it has continued to be the same way.
My eldest brother, Nitin, and his family, have always encouraged me. My eldest brother doesn't like to talk much, but the one thing he always told me is that whatever you do, I know you will always give it 100%, and that I have full faith and confidence in you. His encouragement meant a lot to me. My sister, Savita, and her family, was no different. The first cricket bat of my life was presented to me by my sister. It was a Kashmir willow bat. But that is where the journey began. She is one of those many who still continue to fast when I bat, so thank you very much.
Ajit, my brother, now what do I talk about him? I don't know. We have lived this dream together. He was the one who sacrificed his career for my cricket. He spotted the spark in me. And it all started from the age of 11 when he took me to Archrekar sir, my coach, and from there on my life changed. You will find this hard to believe but even last night he called to discuss my dismissal, knowing that there was a remote chance of batting again, but just the habit we have developed, the rapport we have developed, since my birth, has continued and it will continue. Maybe when I'm not playing cricket we will still be discussing technique.
Various things we agreed upon, my technique, and so many technical things which I didn't agree with him, we have had arguments and disagreements, but when I look back at all these things in my life, I would have been a lesser cricketer.
The most beautiful thing happened to me in 1990 when I met my wife, Anjali. Those were special years and it has continued and will always continue that way. I know Anjali, being a doctor; there was a wonderful career in front of her. When we decided to have a family, Anjali took the initiative to step back and say that 'you continue with your cricket and I will take the responsibility of the family'.
Without that, I don't think I would have been able to play cricket freely and without stress. Thanks for bearing with all my fuss and all my frustrations, and all sorts of rubbish that I have spoken. Thanks for bearing with me and always staying by my side through all the ups and downs. You are the best partnership I've had in my life.
Then, the two precious diamonds of my life, Sara and Arjun. They have already grown up. My daughter is 16, my son is 14. Time has flown by. I wanted to spend so much time with them on special occasions like their birthdays, their annual days, their sports day, going on holidays, whatever. I have missed out on all those things. Thanks for your understanding. Both of you have been so, so special to me you cannot imagine. I promise you [that] for 14 and 16 years I have not spent enough time with both of you, but the next 16 years or even beyond that, everything is for you.
My in-laws, Anand Mehta and Annabel, both have been so, so supportive [and] loving and caring. I have discussed on various things in life, generally with them, and have taken their advice. You know, it's so important to have a strong family who is always with you and who are guiding you. Before you start clapping, the most important thing they did was allowing me to marry Anjali, so thank you very much.
In the last 24 years that I have played for India I have made new friends, and before that I have had friends from my childhood. They have all had a terrific contribution. As and when I have called them to come and bowl to me at the nets, they have left their work aside to come and help me. Be it joining me on holidays and having discussions with me on cricket, or how I was a little stressed and wanting to find a solution so I can perform better.
All those moments my friends were with me. Even for when I was injured, I would wake up in the morning because I couldn't sleep and thought that my career was over because of injuries, that is when my friends have woken up at 3 o'clock in the morning to drive with me and make me believe that my career was not over. Life would be incomplete without all those friends. Thanks for being there for me.
My cricket career started when I was 11. The turning point of my career was when my brother (Ajit) took me to Achrekar sir. I was extremely delighted to see him up in the stands. Normally he sits in front of the television and he watches all the games that I play. When I was 11/12, those were the days when I used to hop back on his scooter and play a couple of practice matches a day. The first half the innings I would be batting at Shivaji Park, the second half, at some other match in Azad Maidan. He would take me all over Mumbai to make sure I got match practice.
On a lighter note, in the last 29 years, sir has never ever said 'well played' to me because he thought I would get complacent and I would stop working hard. Maybe he can push his luck and wish me now, well done on my career, because there are no more matches, sir, in my life. I will be witnessing cricket, and cricket will always stay in my heart, but you have had an immense contribution in my life, so thank you very much.
My cricket for Mumbai started right here on this ground, the Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA), which is so dear to me. I remember landing from New Zealand at four o'clock in the morning, and turning up for a game here at eight o'clock just because I wanted to be a part of Mumbai cricket, and not that somebody forced me. That was for the love of Mumbai cricket, and thank you very much. The president is here so thank you very much, along with your team, for taking care of me and looking after my cricket.
The dream was obviously to play for India, and that is where my association with BCCI started. BCCI was fantastic, right from my debut they believed in my ability and selecting me into the squad at the age of 16 was a big step, so thanks to all the selectors for having faith in me and the BCCI for giving me the freedom to express myself out in the middle. Things would have been different if you had not been behind me, and I really appreciate your support. Especially when I was injured, you were right with me and making sure that all the treatments were taken care of, and that I got fit and fine and playing [right] back for India.
The journey has been special, the last 24 years, I have played with many senior cricketers, and even before that there were many senior cricketers with whom I watched on television. They inspired me to play cricket, and to play in the right way. Thanks to all those senior cricketers, and unfortunately I have not been able to play with them, but I have high regards for all their achievements and all their contributions.
We see it on the mega-screen, Rahul, Laxman, Sourav, and Anil, who is not here, and my team-mates right here in front me. You are like my family away from home. I have had some wonderful times with you. It is going to be difficult to not be part of the dressing room, sharing those special moments. All the coaches for their guidance, it has been special for me. I know when MS Dhoni presented me the 200th Test match cap on Day One morning. I had a brief message for the team. I would like to repeat that. I just feel that all of us are so, so fortunate and proud to be part of the Indian cricket team and serving the nation.
Knowing all of you guys, I know you will continue to serve the nation in the right spirit and right values. I believe we have been the lucky ones to be chosen by the Almighty to serve this sport. Each generation gets this opportunity to take care of this sport and serve it to the best of our ability. I have full faith in you to continue to serve the nation in the right spirit and to the best of your ability, to bring all the laurels to the country. All the very best.
I would be failing in my duties if I did not thank all the doctors, the physios, the trainers, who have put this difficult body together to go back on the field and be able to play. The amount of injuries that I have had in my career, I don't know how you have managed to keep me fit, but without your special efforts, it would never have happened. The doctors have met me at weird hours. I mean I have called them from Mumbai to Chennai, Mumbai to Delhi, I mean wherever. They have just taken the next flight and left their work and families to be with me, which has allowed me to play. So a big thank you to all three of you for keeping me in good shape.
My dear friend, late Mark Mascarenhas, my first manager. We unfortunately lost him in a car accident in 2001, but he was such a well-wisher of cricket, my cricket, and especially Indian cricket. He was so passionate. He understood what it takes to represent a nation and gave me all the space to go out and express myself, and never pressurised me to do this ad or promotion or whatever the sponsors demanded. He took care of that and today I miss him, so thank you Mark for all your contribution.
My current management team, WSG, for repeating what Mark has done, because when I signed the contract I exactly told them what I want from them, and what it requires to represent me. They have done that and respected that.
Someone who has worked closely with me for 14 years is my manager, Vinod Nayudu. He is more like my family and all the sacrifices, spending time away from his family for my work, has been special, so big thank you to his family as well for giving up so much time for my work with Vinod.
In my school days, when I performed well, the media backed me a lot. They continue to do that till this morning. Thank you so much to the media for supporting and appreciating my performances. It surely had a positive effect on me. Thank you so much to all the photographers as well for those wonderfully captured moments that will stay with me for the rest of my life, so a big thank you to all the photographers.
I know my speech is getting a bit too long (crowd roars with 'noooo'), but this is the last thing I want to say. I want to thank all the people here who have flown in from various parts of the world, and have supported me endlessly, whether I scored a 0 or a 100-plus. Your support was so dear to me and meant a lot to me. Whatever you have done for me.
I know I have met so many guys who have fasted for me, prayed for me, done so much for me. Without that life wouldn't have been like this for me. I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart, and also say that time has flown by rather quickly, but the memories you have left with me will always be with me forever and ever, especially "Sachin, Sachin" which will reverberate in my ears till I stop breathing. Thank you very much. If I have missed out on saying something, I hope you understand. Goodbye.

Many people called her ugly as she doesn't look like her mother. May be people have forgotten that she is just a one-year-old kid. Interestingly, Aaradhya has a Twitter account too, obviously it's fake. When Aishwarya Rai was asked why she tried to hide Aaradhya's face from media, she replied, "I think it is the job of media to take pictures or bytes. But as a mother, as a family, we were just trying to be protective. She is too small and new to this world. I did not want her to get hassled. It was just a natural instinct of being protective."
Soon people will start guessing whether Aaradhya will become an actress or will chose a different profession. The best part is, she is just one and too young to understand all this. So no matter what the entire world thinks about her, Jaya Bachchan's 'Strawberry' is having a blast. The Bachchans really want the baby to have a normal childhood. However, going by the scenario so far, it seems really difficult.
Meanwhile, we wish a very happy birthday to Aaradhya Bachchan.
You didn't just play cricket. You made our lives memorable.
Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar. A cricketer, a batsman, a human being par excellence. On Nov 15, the maestro walked out to bat for one last time, his trademark gait, face masked with concentration and shoulders burdened, for the final time, by a million expectations.
Him, walking on to the Wankhede the last time, will be remembered long after the bails have come out, the stumps have been removed and the dirt has been washed. Wakhede, you have been blessed. For the God played here the last. And he did not disappoint.
Here are some glimpses from the match. 1. Bollywood actress Poonam Pandey displays a tattoo of Sachin Tendulkar on her hand outside Wankhede Stadium
2. Sachin Tendulkar's mother Rajni Tendulkar and wife Anjali at Wankhede Stadium on Day 2 of the final Test match between India and West Indies.

Sharwanand As Don Satya Sharwanand, who has already proved his mettle, has full scope for his role as don Satya and he has delivered a brilliant performance. He is very mature in actions and suits the role to a T. He carries most of the film on his shoulders. But it should be said here that viewers had lot of mercy to the don in Satya, but this new one seeks neither wrath nor sympathy of the viewers. Blame the scriptwriter for it.
Anaika Soti As Satya's Lover In Satya, Urvasi, who played the heroine, had good scope for her role and she had delivered memorable performance in it. Whereas Anaika Soti, who appears as Satya's girlfriend in Satya 2, has nothing much to perform, but she impresses you in song sequences. Aradhna Gupta has played a special role. She tries her best to steal the show in her brief appearance.
Satya (Sharwanand), is an aspiring don, who enters the scene with different ideology. Without having any big pertinent contacts in the city, he dreams to take over the underworld mafia. As a first step in this direction, he solves the problem of RK and Businessman Lahote (Mahesh), who is afraid of another don Sangi and police officer Bharathi, and becomes a reliable member in his gang. How does he become a frightening mafia? How does he start a highly influential Company? Answers to these questions will form the crux of the story.
Picturisation of Satya 2 Satya 2 has moderate production values and Vikash Saraf's cinematography is the main attraction in the technical front. Although Vikash relies on RGV's trademark camera angles and close-ups, some of his shots like Eagle view camera angles are sure to impress you. He has also done good job in picturisation of song sequences.
Satya 2 Music Besides story, another big reason for the success of Satya was its soundtracks. Especially, the song 'Goli Maro Bheje Me...' is popular even today. But Satya 2 hardly has any impressive tunes. Amar Mohile-Kary Arora's background score is good to certain extent, but it appears to be loud in some parts
Other Technical Stuffs In Satya The dialogues in Satya were another reason for its success. Satya 2 has also good dialogues, but they lack the punch of Satya. The action choreography is commendable. Other departments like art direction, costume design, make up works are also good. But the editing is not upto the mark. Jerin Jose should have trimmed certain dragging scenes and made them crispier.
Aaradhya made her mother Aishwarya Rai Bachchan's birthday very special by singing "Happy Birthday to my mamma" on 1 November midnight.
For the first time, Aishwarya Rai addressed the media on her birthday outside her residence Janak in Mumbai on Friday. During the press conference, the Bachchan bahu told reporters how Aaradhya made her birthday special.
"It's the most special experience when Aaradhya sang Happy Birthday to me," she said, adding, "She sleeps very late like all of us. She was awake at that time and she sang Happy Birthday to me on Friday midnight."
"I taught her to sing Happy Birthday song, but she feels it is her birthday so she said Aaradhya!"
"She first wished herself like she did with paa (Amitabh Bachchan) and then she wished me," the former Miss World added. When asked what Abhishek gifted her on the 40th birthday, she said "I think we will leave to Abhishek to share. But of course he has given me a gift."
Aishwarya Rai also said that Aaradhya is the best gift life has given her. "But for life I think the biggest gift is we can have Aaradhya in our life."
Aishwarya Rai, touted as one of the most beautiful woman, celebrated her birthday with just family and close friends. With several events and endorsements, Aishwarya has been busy travelling with Aaradhya and therefore, they were not able to spend time with family.
So she decided to celebrate the 40th birthday with just her husband daughter and her parents.

Krishnam Vande Jagadgurum is a mix of a commendable acting and a good script. Like with his previous movies, Krish has once again proved his directorial credentials with this film.
The story revolves around Babu (played by Rana) whose grandfather (Kota Srinivas Rao) has a theatre group which he wants Babu to join. But Babu has other plans and wants to go to the US.

The rest of the story is about how Babu's life changes when he goes to his grandfather's native village, where the theatre group was formed.
Rana Daggubati's performance is brilliant, especially when he plays the role of a mythological character in a play in the film. Nayanthara plays an important role and carries it off well.
Although he has a brief role, Kota Srinivasa Rao delivers a good performance.
Krish's fine narrative taut direction keeps the audience glued to the movie. Unlike his previous film, Krish experiments with commercial elements in the movie.
verdict : Overall, a good watch that will appeal to all types of audience.
