Powerstar Srinivasan Arrested Again

In Mar, this year, Powerstar Srinivasan was arrested by Delhi Police in a cheating case where he allegedly cheated a businessman to the tune of Rs.10 crores by promising to get him a loan of Rs.1000 crores. Now in another cheating case, Bengaluru police have taken the actor into their custody in another cheating case where he has cheated a businessman & his brother for Rs.1 crore by promising them a loan of Rs.30 crores. He has now been lodged in a prison in Bengaluru. Police reveal that there are 8 cheating cases pending against the actor who has acted in 12 Tamil films and was last seen in a guest appearance in Vijay Sethupathi starrer Kavan.

Producer: Vitthal Patil, Ganesh Phuke, Mahesh Yewale, Yogesh Nikam, Makrand Mane & Vidhi Kasliwal
Director: Makrand Mane
Star Cast: Shashank Shende, Master Sahil Joshi, Suhas Sirsat, Kalyanee Mulay, Vijay Salve, Umesh Jagtap, Shantanu Gangane, Abhay Mahajan, Vitthal Patil, Ketan Pawar, Shyam Savaji, Govind Bhatlavande, Dattatray Jagtap, Prashant Tapasvi, Omkar Mane et al
Music: Rohit Nagbhide

Director Makrand Mane had made his directorial debut with a stage play of same name Ringan which means a circle. In the context of this film “the circle of life”. Another noteworthy aspect of the movie is that Ringan had bagged the National Award as the “Best Marathi Film” almost 2 years ago but it could lighten up the darkened auditorium only now. A backhanded compliment is very apt at this stage to Ringan’s director Makrand Mane for his directorial brilliance & to Ringan’s producers namely Vitthal Patil, Ganesh Phuke, Mahesh Yewale, Yogesh Nikam, Makrand Mane & Vidhi Kasliwal for producing such a rare gem of a movie.

Ringan’s circle of life at regular intervals showcases darkness & then there’s light. However as a wise wizard once said, “Happiness can be found, even in the darkest of times, when one only remembers to turn on the light.”

But director Makarand Mane succeeds in doing is to motivate oneself to look out for the light. A film that is so relevant to the current disastrous state of our farmer could have gone either ways.

One way that was previously taken by a film like Gabhricha Paus. That way was effective in an opposite way. Although a depressing end does not necessarily means a depressing message.

Although Ringan presents a perfect solution.
Yet the solution isn’t that simple & hence the positivity that could drive oneself towards finding a solution is what the film actually gives the audiences, instead of the solution itself. Beyond this very local context of the film, beneath there’s a universal theme to it.
The father – son bond is not new in universal cinema, but Ringan is probably the best depiction of the same in the recent history of Indian Cinema.

That apart Ringan has waited for it’s time & fortunately or unfortunately it’s releasing in times where we’ve just went through a huge farmer’s strike. But the lighter part is that there’s Waari atmosphere all over Maharashtra. Just like Elizabeth Ekadashi Pandharpur is an essential part of Ringan.

And the journey of Ringan suggests us that for finding the God within one must work towards it. Miracles don’t occur on their own, one must create one’s own miracle!!!

Performance wise all the actors namely Shashank Shende, Master Sahil Joshi, Suhas Sirsat, Kalyanee Mulay, Vijay Salve, Umesh Jagtap, Shantanu Gangane, Abhay Mahajan, Vitthal Patil, Ketan Pawar, Shyam Savaji, Govind Bhatlavande, Dattatray Jagtap, Prashant Tapasvi, Omkar Mane et al are too brilliant to be true.

Last but not the least Ringan is an extremely rare & “complete” film that can interest all kinds of audiences. In Marathi Cinema audiences look out for a human connection & Ringan makes that connection instantly.

Tail Piece: Ringan is a must watch movie!!! It’s probably the “Best Marathi film” made in recent years and its bagging the National Award simply proves that fact. Yet one more best aspect of Ringan is that even after being universal in theme & approach the heart of it is very much beating for Apla Marathi Maanus.

Banner: Salman Khan Films & Kabir Khan Films
Producer: Salman Khan
Director: Kabir Khan
Star Cast: Salman Khan, debutante Zhu Zhu, Sohail Khan, debutante Master Matin Rey Tangu, Isha Talwar, Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub, Om Puri, Yashpal Sharma, Sahil Mehta, Late Om Puri Shatrughan Sinha & Shah Rukh Khan (Cameo Appearances)
Music: Pritam & Julius Packiam

Director Kabir Khan needs no special introduction as he has delivered countless number of runaway super hit fillms like Bajrangi Bhaijaan, Kick, Ek Tha Tiger, Bodyguard, Wanted, Dabangg, New York et al but in his latest outing Tubelight he along with his super star Mr. Dictator Salman Khan’s calculated Ramzan Eid release plan has gone absolutely awry. The real tubelight oriented sparks are simply missing. Perhaps both Kabir & Salman’s over confidence let them down very badly. Need we say anything more.

The scripted scenario of Tubelight reveals that it is a story about a man’s unshakeable belief. Based on the adage, “Faith can move mountains, the film revolves around the life of a simpleton named Laxman Singh Bisht (Salman Khan). Because of his exceedingly gullible nature, he gets nicknamed as “tubelight”, thanks to his inability to grasp, understand & analyse things like others. The story starts off with a narration by Laxman Singh Bist, wherein he takes the audiences through his childhood to adulthood journey. While the world doesn’t take him seriously, the 1 man who always stands by Laxman Singh Bist and has complete faith in him, is none other than his younger brother Bharat Singh Bisht (Sohail Khan). 1 day, in the wake of the Indo – China war, the Indian Army invites applications from young Indians to join the army & serve the nation at the time of crisis. While Laxman Singh Bist gets rejected outright, Bharat Singh Bist gets chosen to be a part of the Indian army to go to the border to fight against the Chinese invasion. Life falls apart for Laxman Singh Bist when he gets to know that there is no news or contact with his brother Bharat Singh Bist and that he may have died in the war. That’s when Banney chacha (the Late Om Puri) tells Laxman Singh Bist to have faith that his brother Bharat Singh Bist will indeed return 1 day.

Director Kabir Khan’s Tubelight, perhaps his 1st ever flop movie in his long & checkered directorial career, is based on the premise of the official adaptation of the Mexican filmmaker Alejandro Gomez Monteverde’s war movie titled Little Boy. But the adapted writing part by Kabir Khan (story), Kabir Khan & Parveez Shaikh (screenplay) & Manurishi Chadha (dialogues) are very raw, extremely half – baked & totally convoluted, which ultimately ended up in Tubelight totally losing its fizz & thereby bombing on the Box – Office turnstiles on the release day itself. The film failed to live upto its title & eventually falls flat completely. In fact Tubelight just does not hold any kind of solid content to even remotely hold the viewers interest. That apart the film is not at all convincing. It also lacks the emotional connect with the audiences. Besides Pritam’s music is another let down except for one hummable track namely “Radio”. The only reedeeming factors of Tubelight are the film’s background score by Julius Packiam, cinematography by Aseem Mishra & editing by Rameshwar S Bhagat which are extra ordinaire.

Performace wise Salman Khan plays his part with utmost sincerity & dedication but it’s the convoluted script which fails him bitterly and he ends up delivering a very artificial performance. Even though Salman Khan tries his best to be naïve & affable, the film’s poor writing has taken its toil on him and he gives him in. Debutante Chinese actress Zhu Zhu can only boat of having a good screen presence and is endearing to watch, nothing more nothing less as the weak script fails to escalate the impact of her performance too. The Indian audiences will find it tough to relate to her half baked character in the film. On the other hand the little boy Master Matin Rey Tangu too is cute & endearing in his character, but doesn’t get to do much. Whereas Sohail Khan is convincing in his extended cameo kind of role and plays his part with sincerity. The Late Om Puri indeed delivers a memorable performance, while Shatrughan Sinha & Shah Rukh Khan’s cameo is impressive. A special noteworthy mention must be made of Sahil Mehta who has indeed given a good account of himself. While the rest of the actors like Isha Talwar, Yashpal Sharma & Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub are conving and help the film in moving forward.

Tail Piece: This Tubelight has certainly lost its fizz goes phuss.

Startling & shocking as it may sound, a lady claiming to be a slain Congress politician & youth leader Sanjay Gandhi’s daughter has sent a legal notice to the director Madhur Bhandarkar, Minister Of Information & Broadcasting M Venkaiah Naidu, chairperson of CBFC Pahlaj Nihalani & producer Bharat Shah to stop the CBFC from certifying Bhandarkar’s political film Indu Sarkar from release.

The film recreates the events during the dreaded Emergency that was clamped on Indian democracy in 1977. The lady Priya Singh Paul claiming to be Sanjay Gandhi’s “daughter” in her 4 page legal notice dated 23rd Jun, 2017 states that she has come to know that her “father” Sanjay Gandhi & her grandmother Indira Gandhi played by Neil Nitin Mukesh & Supriya Vinod, are shown in roles “without accurate or with sufficient historical data” and may be shown in “poor light”.

The legal notice goes on to say that the release of the film should be stopped until Ms. Priya Singh Paul is shown the film & approved by her. The recipients of this startling legal notice have been given a week to respond. While Madhur Bhandarkar refused to comment, CBFC Chairperson Pahlaj Nihalani expresses bafflement over the content of the legal notice.

Salman Khan’s Tubelight Distributors Left In Tears

Salman Khan & Ramzan Eid have been an unbeatable combination that has usually guaranteed Rs 200 to Rs 300 crore business at the Box – Office. And with Kabir Khan on board, one was expecting Tubelight to break records just like Bajrangi Bhaijaan. But, neither Ramzan Eid nor Kabir Khan’s directing chops brought any luck for Salman Khan starrer Tubelight. According to the trade buzz, the single screens that ran & are running Salman Khan’s Tubelight have suffered huge losses. It’s been said that 2 cinemas that screened the film in Ferozabad in Uttar Pradesh have lost an amount close to Rs 9.11 lakhs. Another cinema in Uttar Pradesh, Maya Cinemas, has claimed that they lost all the money that they had earned during Baahubali 2: The Conclusion &
Dangal. They have lost around Rs 4.11 lakhs.
Many distributors have been left in tears after suffering huge losses due to Tubelight. According to the buzz, some of the distributors have come to Mumbai in the hope of meeting Salman Khan and getting the refund for their losses.

Akshay To Take Over Bigg Boss???

Akshay Kumar’s spiralling superstardom threatens to hit a new high, what with reliable reports from the sources in the know insisting that the Toilet: Ek Prem Katha star will take over Bigg Boss from Salman Khan from the forthcoming season of the ongoing show. And if you are looking for a sensational squabble between the 2 superstars regarding the job on the hot seat, then look elsewhere. Apparently the transition from one superstar to the other is going to be “very smooth,”. Says the source, “Salman has been wanting to opt out from Bigg Boss for some years now. Every year, he announces he won’t do Bigg Boss as it impinges on his other commitments & makes a heavy demand on his time. But now, he is seriously not keen to go on. Akshay Kumar, with his huge connect with the masses, is seen as the best replacement.” While the nitty – gritty & details of the change are yet to emerge, it is very clear that it won’t be easy to get Akshay Kumar on board.
