Mumbai:Maninder Sign Bitta, President of the Anti-Terrorsist Front,Hasmukh Thakur, President – Maharashtra, ATF and Sanjeev Gupta, the President – Mumbai of Anti-Terrorist Front, honored actor John Abraham by conferring the ‘Pride of the Nation’ award on him for his role in Madras Café – a film that highlights the Rajeev Gandhi assassination on16 September, 2013 at New Delhi .
“John is a big actor. It takes courage to portray something as offbeat as his character in the film. Such efforts deserve to be recognized and honored in order to promote the spirit of national integration, brotherhood and to fight terrorism in all its forms,” said Sanjeev Gupta, at the heels of the program.
Bitta, the President of the ATF was all praise for the actor. “Abraham has made a courageous attempt to unravel the conspiracy behind the assassination of Rajiv Gandhi,” he said. The film “Madras Cafe” recalls the series of events in the 80s and early 1990s woven around the Sri Lankan civil war and the subsequent assassination of then Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi.
John Abraham said he was exploring making a movie on Havaldar Abdul Hamid, who was awarded the Param Vir Chakra posthumously following the 1965 Indo-Pak war. “Abdul Hamid made the supreme sacrifice during the war. His story is awe-inspiring. I will definitely try to make a movie on his life,” Abraham said during the function that was titled ‘Zara Yaad Karo Qurbani’.Bitta added that there remains scope for an “unbiased enquiry to expose the conspiracy” which resulted in the death of Rajiv Gandhi.
The event also saw Hamid’s 92-year-old wife Rasoolan Bibi being handed the Veer Bravery Award awarded to her husband. Bravery awards were also given to four BSF men who lost their lives in a Naxal attack in Odisha, to five army personnel, who died in an ambushed in Pooch sector of Jammu and Kashmir, and to two army soldiers beheaded by Pakistani troops this year in January.
Komal Malhotra from Delhi, who fought bravely against chain snatchers despite a bullet injury, was also honored with an award by John Abraham.

Soundarya’s Vision to Immortalise Rajinikanth
The impetus behind the magnum opus feature film Kochadaiiyaan – The Legend starring superstar Rajinikanth and the reigning Deepika Padukone, stems from the grand vision of its director Soundarya Rajnikanth Ashwin who’s aim was to immortalise her off-screen father, and on-screen icon Rajinikanth for his adoring fans.
“My ambition has always been to immortalise my father and bring the legendary Rajinikanth that audiences around the world adore in an ‘avatar’ he hasn’t been seen or experienced in ever before” says Soundarya.
Soundarya, a talented and forward thinking filmmaker who is part of India’s esteemed generation-x directors, is well versed with various trend setting film techniques including that of Computer Generated Technology. In addition to her directorial duties, insiders say that prior to the filming schedule, Soundarya undertook extensive training in motion capturing photorealistic technology to fully understand the process herself.
She has been involved in film animation techniques and production for the last six years and for Kochadaiiyaan she wanted to do something unique and decided to introduce Motion Capture technology which was never attempted in its full band-with in India before.
She continues by saying: “Through the use of this path-breaking technology, I have been able to have unlimited creativity on all grounds. I was also able to de-age certain characters including my father and it was a delight to see him on screen as I remembered him when I was growing up.A direct impact of globalisation has been the proliferation of entertainment and other forms of content from the West. By incorporating some of the technological innovations as seen in major Hollywood productions into Kochadaiiyaan allowed me to bring my father’s performance and persona up to speed with the current generation of filmgoers who may not be aware of my father’s repertoire of work.”
Referred to as India’s answer to Avatar, Kochadaiiyaan is set to blaze a trail globally in cutting-edge Motion Capturing with Photorealistic Technology, as it rivals and transcends the technological capabilities of Hollywood masterpieces Avatar, Tin Tin and Beowulf. South Indian megastar Rajinikant is cast as the archetypal superhero in the epic dramatization of good versus evil. He performs a dual role with Deepika being paired opposite the younger character. They are joined by current and veteran stars of North and South Indian Cinema such as Jackie Shroff and R. Sarathkumar for a global, Pan-Indian cinematic treat.
Mediaone Global Entertainment Limited & Eros International ‘s Kochadaiiyaan – The Legend is set to transcend boundaries and break records, creating a market first in world cinema and cementing Indian Cinema’s place forever within the global film fraternity. Kochadaiiyaan – The Legend will release worldwide this December 2013.

The men Sarika wants to be locked up with in the Bigg Boss house!
Mumbai, September 16, 2013: At the concluding Manhattan Short India Master Class Series at National college on Monday afternoon, when asked if she would consider entering the infamous Bigg Boss house, senior actor Sarika sportingly quipped, “I’ll do it if they lock Naseeruddin Shah, Nana Patekar, Irrfan Khan, Seema Biswas, Tabu, myself, Nawazuddin Sidiqui, Anurag Kashyap. Yes, then I would go in. That is so exciting!”
In a heart-to-heart tete-a-tete with the students at National college, moderated by senior film journalist Faheem Ruhani, Sarika made several youngsters’ jaws drop when she revealed to them that today in Hindi cinema, women are less objectified than in earlier times. “Go to youtube and search for songs like ‘Hungama Ho Gaya’ with Bindu or a Padma Khanna song. The camera is only on two places,” she said, with the young audience in splits. “And the camera had this very vulgar movement. They would zoom in and out and in and out, just at those two places. I would rather see Deepika looking so sensual and so sexy than seeing that camera movement. Things are much better now,” she added.
At ease, Sarika was as comfortable talking about people who influenced her like Sunil Dutt, Meena Kumari and Sanjeev Kumar and about the choices she has made in her professional and personal life. The students posed as many tough questions as any journalist would do today including ones such as, ‘Why did you take so long for your come back?’, ‘With your daughter an actor today, do you think women are more objectified today than the previous generation?’, ‘Is Bollywood changing that we will soon see an older heroine with a younger hero?’, ‘How true is it that an actress’ career comes to an end when she gets married?’ and even ‘Will we see you direct a film soon?’

While the industry has dime a dozen tales of co-actors who do not get along with each other, here’s one Jai-Veeru Jodi who just don’t seem to get bored of each other! We are talking about Arhaan Behl and Vikas Sethi of Zee TV’s recently launched show Do Dil Bandhe Ek Dori Se.
Arhan Behl (Raghu) and Vikas Sethi (Jaswant Rana) apparently have a blast in each other’s company. From cracking jokes in Punjabi to reading their scripts together, these two seem to have a blast shooting together. Ironically, the two do not share a cordial relationship onscreen, but their character differences do not reflect in their off-screen relationship at all.
When we contacted Vikram, he said, “Since Arhaan and I both are Punjabis, we feel at ease in each other’s company. Because of our common background we are both comfortable practicing and rehearsing for our dialogues and reading our scripts together in Punjabi. We share a common taste in food and films as well. The typical practice of two Punjabi boys addressing each other as Veere or Bhai exists between us as well. He is a very good friend of mine and I really miss his presence on the sets whenever he is not shooting.”
Apart from these two, apparently the entire team is always seen having fun together on the sets. Confirms Vikas, “We have a WhatsApp group called DDBEDS (Do Dil Bandhe Ek Dori Se), where throughout the day we keep pulling each other’s legs and have a blast even if we are not shooting! And I must tell you, Alok ji (Aloki Nath) has the best sense of humor amongst all.”
We’ve seen many such hit pairs kicking off as the show begins, but slowly, as they start maturing into individual characters on the show, they begin to have differences and end up falling apart. Well, all we can say now is “Iss Jodi ko kisi ki nazar na lag jaaye”.

• Action Memo allows users to handwrite a note, and automatically execute a function or convert that handwritten information into formatted content. Action Memo can instantly initiate a call, add to contacts, look up an address on a map, search the web, save a task to a to-do list, and more.
• Scrapbook enables users to organize or track down content and information from various sources including the web, YouTube and Gallery in one place so that users can easily look back at collected content all at once.
