Talking about the casting of Taher, director Vishal Mishra said, “Taher Shabbir was our first choice for this role. I’ve seen his 

work in Fan, Manikarnika, Naam Shabana and Guilty and have always took notice of his performance. He’s a perfect fit to play 

Pratyush Parashar, the character that’s got many layers.”

Prerana V Arora said, “I wanted this film to have an interesting ensemble cast and every actor to fit his role perfectly. I want to 

shape vision of my director as closely as I can any casting actors who perfectly fit yet stand out in their respective roles. Taher 

brings a lot of freshness as well as an acclaimed body of work to our film.”

Vivek Anand Oberoi elaborated, “Right casting is very important these days, since actors evoke the dynamics that evolve in the

surprise you with their performances. Taher is one such actor and he fits Pratyush’s role perfectly.”

I get to play such an interesting character in a concept-driven, unique thriller. For this, I'm grateful to Mandiraa Entertainment,

this opportunity all the more special and I'm sure this movie is going to be a game changer!"

characters intertwined in their own struggles. It is expected to go on floors this year and release early next year.

CINTAA Official Statement by Amit Behl (Senior Joint Secretary & Chairperson - Outreach Committee, CINTAA)

CINTAA is the oldest and the largest union of performing artistes in the country. All our actors are law-abiding citizens. We are very nationalistic and very, very pro Indian. No Pakistani actor is a CINTAA member and the Pakistani actors who had applied for the renewal of their work permits, their permits have not been renewed. We have a very strong scrutiny committee and we are very clear that we do not give membership to anyone who has anti-nationalistic feelings or any criminal records whatsoever. Whatever has happened right now, I am sure the Government, the CBI and the other investigating agencies will do the needful about it. The only thing is that in case any of our actors, technicians or anyone from the media and entertainment industry realize that they are in touch with anyone who has anti-nationalistic feelings, they should definitely dissociate themselves. CINTAA strongly supports any directive from the Ministry of Home Affairs and the Government, we are with them. We as a union cannot comment on the authenticity of the photographs, but we are very confident that all our members, if inadvertently, have at all been photographed with such individuals, during their visits abroad, will distance themselves from any anti-national elements or those with deep state leanings, favouring a nation that has not respected India’s courtesy and respectful overtures.... Our members, from the inception of CINTAA, have been at the forefront of every call of the nation and we will continue to do so.

Abhishek Sharma completes 10 years in Bollywood and gears up for his next Suraj Pe Mangal Bhari

As Abhishek Sharma completes a decade of diverse storytelling as a filmmaker in Bollywood, with impressive films including Tere Bin Laden series and more recently Parmanu: The Story of Pokhran to his name, the filmmaker celebrates his filmy birthday today, while he geares up for his next directorial, Suraj Pe Mangal Bhari starring Manoj Bajpayee, Diljit Dosanjh and Fatima Sana Shaikh in lead roles. Produced by Zee Studios, the film's shoot was completed prior to the nationwide lockdown. Sharma is currently working towards completing the post-production of the film. 

As his debut film Tere Bin Laden, turns 10 today, the filmmaker has spoken elaborately about how there was a lack of faith from a few distributors on that project. A decade later, the filmmaker feels a sense of fulfillment as he sees names like John Abraham (Parmanu's leading man), Manoj Bajpayee and Diljit Dosanjh putting their faith in his work. 

Abhishek Sharma said, “Tere Bin Laden was an out of the box comedy which did not get picked up easily by few distributors. My producers and I  showed the film to a lot of leading distributors who were not very encouraging towards the film. Finally, Mr. Boney Kapoor loved the film and offered to release it. Today, after ten years, the industry has evolved and I have also grown up as a director. Now I have actors like John Abraham, Manoj Bajpayee, and Diljit Dosanjh trusting my vision with out of the box ideas. This is a great feeling and I think somewhere the success of Tere Bin Laden has played a big role in making me a trustworthy filmmaker.”

मैं हर उन कलाकार को मौक़ा देना चाहता हूँ जो उसके क़ाबिल है। संजय शुक्ला कास्टिंग डायरेक्टर

रास्ते कभी नहीं बताते कितना जुनून था तुममे,

मंजिल पर पहुचने वाले को ही जानते हैं लोग।

आज ऐसे ही एक सख्शियत की बात कर रहे है। संजय शुक्ला कास्टिंग डायरेक्टर यूपी के प्रयागराज के छोटे से गांव में जन्मे संजय को बचपन से ही अभिनय में रुचि थी। लेकिन जिस परिवेश में उनका जन्म हुआ वहां से मुम्बई तक का सफर तय करना मिल के पत्थर से कम नहीं था। 

लेकिन संजय को कुछ बड़ा करना था और इसी बड़ा करने की चाहत से संजय कास्टिंग की जगत की ओर रुख किए।संजय जब खुद ऑडिशन में जाते थे तो वहां कलाकारों की परिस्थिति से भली भांति परिचित हो चुके थे। कास्टिंग में आने के बाद संजय शुक्ला ने कलाकारों को उनके उचित मुकाम। तक पहुंचने की ठान ली।

संजय ने अपने संघर्ष के दिनों को याद करते हुए ये फैसला लिया था कि मुम्बई से बाहर कई ऐसे अच्छे कलाकार हैं जो बहुत अच्छी एक्टिंग करते हैं लेकिन उनको सही प्लेटफॉर्म नहीं मिल पाता। कई अच्छे कलाकार मुम्बई तक का सफर तय नहीं कर पाते जिस वजह से एक कलाकार को उसकी उचित स्थान प्राप्त नहीं हो पाती इसलिए में मुंबई से बाहर जा के ऑडिशन करूंगा। जिस से हमारे देश के छुपी हुई प्रतिभाओं को तलाश सकूं और उसे उसके मुकाम तक पहुंचा सकूं। 

संजय ने बताया वो अच्छे-अच्छे सीरीयल की कास्टिंग कर चुके है जैसे।

 खिड़की, बड़ी दूर से आये है हम, मेरी दुर्गा, सी आई डी, सावधान इंडिया, क्राइम पेट्रोल, कुंडली भाग्य, प्यार तूने क्या किया, क्राइम अलर्ट, अलादीन, परमवतार श्री कृष्णा, विक्रम बेताल, इश्क़ में मरजावा, 

अब संजय फिल्मों की तरफ कदम बढ़ा चुके हैं। उनकी आने वाली कई बड़ी फ़िल्में है जिस की पूरी कास्टिंग वो अलग अलग शहरों में जाके करेंगे।

संजय का कहना है वो हर उन कलाकार को मौक़ा देना चाहते है जो सच में उसके क़ाबिल है पर वो किसी वजह से मुंबई तक नही पहुँच पाते।

इसी क्रम में संजय मध्यप्रदेश, यूपी, दिल्ली, हरियाणा, चंडीगढ़, बिहार, राजस्थान, जैसे कई शहरों में जा के अपनी आने वाली फिल्मों की कास्टिंग करेंगे।

Bollywood inspires British singer Arzutra Garielle to launch a career making Indian albums - her latest song, ‘Tumhaari’ is the new love song we will all be singing this monsoon.

Bollywood inspires British singer Arzutra Garielle to launch a career making Indian albums - her latest song, ‘Tumhaari’ is the new love song we will all be singing this monsoon.

 

After the success of her debut album ‘Woh Pal,’ British Pop star Arzutra Garielle has announced the launch of her next single titled ‘Tumhaari’ from her second music album. Following the success of her last single ‘Dard Mein’ she decided to give fans another uber romantic song. “I know my fans – they are die hard romantics,” says Arzutra.

We are continually astonished how a British Singer who can barely speak or understand Hindi has managed to get to her 14th Hindi single so smoothly and with great success. Arzutra told us “My Father was a bollywood film junkie and so I only grew up listening to Bollywood music. I dreamed of being a Bollywood singer.”

      We can certainly hear the Bollywood influence in ‘Tumhaari.’ ‘Tumhaari’ is produced by Dubai based composer Atif Ali, who produces music for several Bollywood films and TV drama serials. The inspiration behind the song dates back to the start of a new blooming real life love story. At the same time Arzutra points out ‘Tumhaari’ is the very song she cried for 8 hours straight on a flight back to London from Dubai after a New Years tragic heartbreak. “The song reminds me of a reversible sweatshirt. On one side, the lyrics of ‘Tumhaari’ resemble falling in love and on the other side they resemble feeling hurt,” Arzutra says.

       Talking to Arzutra about what the song means to her she said, “While listening to the song I have more memories of tears rolling down from my face on the Emirates flight than memories of when I fell in love with him. I’m one of those people who wipes out all memories of my ex’s. It’s too painful. Once it’s over everything becomes history.”

       The elegant video, directed by Hussain Zaidi, is shot beautifully in the South East Coastal region of England. It depicts romance with a subtle hint of loneliness. Arzutra’s solo shots remind us of a very Mona Lisa style.

        As one of the rare singers with back to back releases in the Lockdown, Arzutra was quick to announce the launch of her next single after the success of debut album ‘Woh Pal’ in May 2020. Now the wait is finally over as the singer launches her next single ‘Tumhaari’ on 17th July 2020.

Bollywood actress Evelyn Sharma releases her first book, titled FIVE SEASONS

Bollywood actress and social entrepreneur Evelyn Sharma who was last seen in Superhit film Saaho is all set to release her first own

book! Her social media has been boiling with excitement to reveal the big news!

This Indo-German is a beauty with brains and has proven it many times. Besides being a self-

made Bollywood starlet without any filmy background and reaching on Indian shores without

any backing, Evelyn Sharma has also been running her successful fashion-based charity

foundation, Seams For Dreams, since 2015 and helped tens of thousands of people in need

across India! Known only to the few, in 2017, the young entrepreneur started a marketing

agency (WIP Creatives) to service her own career, her family ventures, and her friends in the

entertainment industry with image development and brand management. Along with numerous

photoshoots and press conferences for popular influencers, the company also handles the marketing side of her and now fiance Dr Tushaan Bhindi’s family businesses.

“It all started when my team simply grew too big to work independently from their homes. I had

to start an office space in Mumbai. And in the second year, we jumped to a studio space to

create more amazing content! I always wanted to use my contacts, experience, and knowledge

to build a business that helps others achieve their dreams too, and my marketing agency (WIP

Creatives) does exactly that!” she says.

Unlike other celebrities that release books about their life, fame, or family dramas, the Saaho

actress decided to release a book that would help all her fans to start their own businesses in

the difficult economic times during the Covid19 lockdown. With a cheeky smile, she quips: “The

ebook is releasing on my birthday and I hope it is going to help everyone who needs marketing

and design guidance for their business. There’s a free gift which is exclusively for my fans, and I

most senior and legendary music director of all. His timeless melodies from Khatta 

Meetha, Koyla and Kites are my favourite. It’s certainly a delight to have him on 

board.”

Vishal Mishra says, “Music has always been an integral part of the classic thrillers in 

Bollywood, like Jewel Thief, Jurm, Mera Saaya and Teesri Manzil. There are a very 

few music directors who have such an envious and wide range of filmographies like 

Rajesh Roshan. He was my first choice for this film and I feel blessed.”

राज्यातील सर्व वेब मिडिया धारकांना सूचित करण्यात येते की, आपण चालवत असलेले सर्व न्यूज पोर्टल,  ऑनलाइन मिडिया वेबसाईट म्हणजे आधुनिक तंत्रज्ञान डिजिटल इंडिया मध्ये मिडिया क्षेत्रात एक नवीन प्रवाह आहे. लोकशाहीचा चौथा स्तंभ म्हणजे पत्रकारिता आहे. या सर्वांना राज्यपातळीवर व देशपातळीवर एक संघ ठेवण्यासाठी वेब मिडिया असोसिएशनची मुबंई येथे निमिर्ती करण्यात आली आहे. या मध्ये जिल्हा पातळीवरील  व तालुका पातळीवर नियमानुसार चालवले जाणारे सर्व न्यूज पोर्टलचे, ऑनलाइन मीडिया चॅनल चे मालक-चालक सभासद होऊ शकतात .

भ्रष्ट अधिकारी,अवैध धंदे करणारे माफिया आणि त्यांचे असलेले राजकीय कनेक्शन हे नेहमी सत्य बातमी प्रसिद्ध करणाऱ्या वेब पोर्टल च्या व ऑनलाइन मीडिया च्या पत्रकारांना  दाबून मारतात व त्यांच्यावर खोटे गुन्हे दाखल केले जातात. याचे देशात अनेक उदाहरण बघायला मिळत आहे.यासाठी वेब मिडियाच्या सर्व मालकांनी व पत्रकारांनी एक संघ राहील पाहिजे.

  ग्रामीण भागात जिल्हा माहिती अधिकारी यांना माहिती जनसंपर्क संचनालाय मंत्रालय,मुबंई येथील अधिकाऱ्यांनी सत्य माहिती द्यावी चुकीची अज्ञान माहिती कोणी देऊ नये. वेब मिडियासाठी पॉलिसी केंद्र सरकारने अजून आणलेली नाही मान्य आहे. त्यासाठी आमचा लढा सुरू आहे.पण त्या अगोदर महाराष्ट्र शासनाने कॅबिनेट मध्ये प्रस्ताव पास करून  वेब मीडियाला शासकीय जाहिराती देण्यात यावे असे स्पष्ट निर्देश दिले आहेत. तसा दिनांक २०/१२/२०१८ रोजी शासन निर्णय ही काढला आहे. ही माहिती मंत्रालय येथील माहिती जनसंपर्क संचालनाय अधिकारी यांनी  राज्यातील सर्व जिल्हा माहिती अधिकाऱ्यांना द्यावी महाराष्ट्र शासनाने वेब मिडियाला शासकीय जाहिरात देणे बाबत या आधीच शासन निर्णय दिला आहे. मग ग्रामीण भागातील जिल्हा माहिती अधिकारी कसे काय ठरवू शकतात की वेब पोर्टल अनधिकृत आहे.  

 राज्यातील सर्व शहरी व ग्रामीण भागातील न्यूज वेब पोर्टल चालकांना मी आहवान करतो की जर का? राज्यभरातील कुठल्या ही अधिकाऱ्याने तुम्हाला  शासकीय पत्रकार परिषद साठी किंवा सरकारी कार्यलायत परवानगी दिली नाही किंवा तुम्ही अधिकृत नाहीत असे पत्र दिले तर ते  वेब मिडिया असोसिएशन कडे पाठवा संबंधित अधिकाऱ्यांवर हायकोर्टात वेब मिडिया असोसिएशन तर्फे खटला दाखल करून त्यांच्या वर योग्य कार्यवाही करेल.

सरकारचा व अधिकाऱ्याचा भ्रष्टाचार वेब मिडियाने काढू नये म्हणून अनेक ठिकाणी यांचा आवाज दाबला जात आहे.ते आम्ही खपून घेणार नाही आजून लोकशाही जिवंत आहे.

न्यूज पोर्टल,ऑनलाईन मीडिया, वेब मीडिया, वर्तमान पत्र, सॅटेलाईट न्यूज चॅनल , स्थानिक केबल, न्युज चॅनल या सर्वांनवर कार्यवाही बरोबर किंवा चूक ठरवण्याचा अधिकार हा महाराष्ट्र शासनाला नाही किंवा इतर कुठल्याही राज्यातील मंत्रालयास नाही. हे ठरवण्याचा अधिकार फक्त आणि फक्त केंद्र सरकारच्या माहिती प्रसारण मंत्रालय यास आहे. Broadcasting Ministry Government Of India याच विभागाला आहे.त्यामुळे जिल्हा माहिती अधिकारी यांना कोणी अधिकार दिला वेब मीडियाच्या पत्रकारांना शासकीय पत्रकार परिषदेस उपस्थित राहण्यास मज्जाव करण्याचा माहिती जनसंपर्क संचालनालय dgipr या विभागाचे काम फक्त आणि फक्त महाराष्ट्र शासनाची माहिती शासन निर्णय,मंत्रीमंडळ निर्णय, वर्तमान पत्र व सर्व मिडियाच्या माध्यमातून जनते पर्यंत पोहचवण्यासाठी हे कार्यालय काम करते.बाकी मिडिया बाबत किंवा वर्तमान पत्राविषयी चूक किंवा बरोबर ठरवण्याचा यांना कुठेलेही अधिकार नाहीत.

ग्रामीण भागात काही जिल्ह्यात असे आढळून आले आहे. की जिल्हा माहिती अधिकारी यांनी परिपत्रक काढले आहे.की ऑनलाईन मीडिया न्यूज वेब पोर्टल अधिकृत नाही  नाही मग दिनांक २०/१२/२०१८ रोजी महाराष्ट्र सरकार ने काढलेला शासन निर्णय चुकीचा आहे का? वेब मीडियाला शासकीय जाहिरात देणे बाबतचा एक तर शासन पत्रकारांची फसवणूक करत आहे किंवा जिल्हा माहिती अधिकारी खोटे परिपत्रक काढुन पत्रकारांची दिशाभूल करत आहेत जिल्हा माहिती अधिकारी यांना कोणी अधिकार दिला आहे मीडियाला अधिकृत आणि अनधिकृत ठरवण्याचा.

सर्व वेब न्यूज पोर्टल धारकांनीही कुठली ही बातमी तपासून लावावी घाई घाई मध्ये कोणीही चुकीची बातमी प्रसारित करू नये. सरकार किंवा राजकीय पुढारी कोणीही पत्रकारांना पगार देत नाही. आपल्या बातमीची शब्द रचना व व्हिडिओचा दर्जा व्यवस्थित असावा .कुठलीही बातमी पुराव्या निशी लावावी राजकीय भानगडीत न पडता निर्भीड पणे  कर्तव्यदक्ष पत्रकारिता करावी चुकीची पत्रकारिता करू नये.अन्यथा चुकीची पत्रकारिता केल्यास पत्रकारांना आहे ते घरदार विकून कोर्टात भरावे लागेल. याची सर्वांनी नोंद घ्यावी यासाठी सर्व वेब न्यूज पोर्टल धारकांनी संघटित राहणे महत्वाचे आहे.

CINTAA Sr VP Manoj Joshi meets Mah Governor to represent senior actor issues

CINTAA's Senior Vice President, actor Manoj Joshi met with the Honorable Governor of Maharashtra Shri Bhagat Singh Koshyari today. They discussed the issue of senior actors, above the age of 65, not being allowed to shoot. The Honorable Governor assured of necessary co-operation.

The meeting was a dual purpose meeting, reveals Manoj Joshi. The Honourable Governor who has witnessed the freedom struggle wrote an essay on Mahatma Gandhi, participating in the competition organised by the Postal Department as a common man. When he won the competition, he added three times the amount to the prize money and gifted the same to the post office employees for protection against COVID19.

"I had been to his place to congratulate him on this amazing  gesture as well as honour him with a shawl along with State BJP Secretary and  Vice-Chairman, of Maharashtra Film, Stage & Cultural Development Corporation Ltd (MFSCDCL) Amarjeet  Mishra who presented The Hon Governor with an idol of Vithoba and Rukmini." 

Manoj Joshi then briefed the Hon Governor on CINTAA, its history, its members, on the senior citizens who are members of CINTAA on whom their family depends for livelihood, and that they already have had no work from three months. He elaborated that the number of working seniors was not very large, but apart from that, there are continuity issues and producers can not replace them. "The Hon Governor gave us a patient ear. It was a good 40 minute meeting. He was very positive and assured that he would help us in the best way possible. He had received the letter from CINTAA that we had sent  him," elaborates Joshi. 

CINTAA had also sent letters to the Hon CM Uddhav Thackeray,  Hon Minister Subash Desai and Former Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis besides the Hon Governor. "We are glad the meeting with the Hon Governor  was an eventful one and are hopeful that the outcome would be a positive one. The meeting was indeed reassuring."

International Table tennis sub-junior player Jash Modi has proved that his talents don’t reside only in his sport but also in academics.

1st July 2020: Mumbai

International Table tennis sub-junior player Jash Modi has proved that his talents don’t reside only in his sport but also in academics.

Jash has just passed his SSC Exams at the tender age of 14+ years with a whopping 93%.

After having passed his 8th standard last year, he decided to take a leap of faith and directly appeared for his 10th exams this year, and cleared the exam with flying colours.  He has not only saved one year of his educational career but also proved his academic mettle.

Jash is currently ranked 4 in India in the sub-junior boys age group.  He also won a silver medal in the World Junior TT Cadet championship in 2018 held at Oman plus he is the Bronze Medalist in Jordan’s World Table Tennis ranking tournament.

He was also declared the SGFI National Champion of 2019 in the Under-14 boys group.

Despite the Covid Lockdown , he has been following a grueling schedule of practicing TT daily for 3 hours, followed by 2 hours of fitness training and 30 minutes of meditation. And in between-all this he even found some time to study for his SSC exams.

Jash has a dream to represent India and win an Olympic Medal in Table Tennis, something which no Indian TT player has achieved so far. It’s a daunting task, but his dreams are powerful and he hopes to do this herculean task through sheer hard work and grit.

We wish him the best of luck for his future endeavors and here’s predicting that his is one name we are going to hear a lot more of in the coming years.

Richa Chadha-Ali Fazal spill the beans on their love story in the June-July issue of a bridal magazine as they posed for their first ever cover as a couple!

They could be two of the film industry’s most outspoken people but Richa Chadha and Ali Fazal have been fairly tight lipped about their love story. So we know that they met on the sets of Fukrey in 2012 and then made an announcement at the world premiere of Victoria and Abdul in Venice in 2017. In a cover shoot for Brides Today’s July 2020 issue, the actors gave out the details of their story. Though initially intended as the first magazine cover post wedding, the pandemic has postponed their wedding plans for the year. 

Speaking to the magazine, Richa recounted the first time she knew this was love. “We were at my house watching Chaplin - the 1992 British-American biographical comedy drama starring Robert Downey Jr. I was happy to see him enjoy the movie and was grateful to have found someone with similar tastes. That is when I said, “This is really sweet, I love you.” to him. It took him three months to say I love you back to me.”

But Ali has a special reason why he loves his Kuki (as he affectionately addresses Richa). She is Ms Butterfingers, he says fondly. “She thinks I fell in love with her only because of her clumsiness - and it surely is one of the reasons. She is as clumsy as it gets. If she is eating, there will be glasses spilling , food will be all over the place, and cutlery will definitely fall. Her most embarrassing clumsy moment was in Venice. It was at a fine dining event and Judi Dench was sitting at the next table. Suddenly a bean went flying over - of course, it was from Richa’s plate. She calls it her Pretty Woman moment!”

But of all the glorious proposal stories you’ll ever hear, here’s the most heartwarmingly romantic woman. On being asked how Ali proposed, Richa said, “He had planned a romantic dinner on a small, secluded island in the Maldives. I thought it was for my birthday - I didn’t suspect a thing. We had finished eating and were sipping on champagne when Ali, being his spontaneous self, asked me to marry him. He didn’t go down on his knee, nor did he have a ring but that’s all right. After that he took a 10- minute long nap on the sand - I think it was because he may have been stressed about the proposal!”

After decades of celebrating stories of elaborate proposals, here’s a couple that committed to a lifetime of companionship with a simple promise of being there through thick and thin. Richa quotes Javed Akhtar’s iconic line, “Hamari dosti itni pakki hai ki shaadi bhi iska kuch nahi bigaad payi…”
