image We all keep quoting Chanakya Neeti whenever we encounter any problem or see an issue confounding the public at large. What if Chanakya were alive today? What advice would he pick from his own famous treatise and for whom among our worthy politicians and celebrities? Here's a tongue-in-cheek look:   1. "Before you start some work, always ask yourself three questions - Why am I doing it, What will the results be? Will I be successful? Only when you think deeply and find satisfactory answers to these questions, go ahead." Chanakya would advice Rahul Gandhi to rethink his foray into politics rather than joining merely in loyalty to his dynastic roots.

image It was literally a case of the ill will being washed away in a wave of tears when the Big B, Amitabh Bachchan viewed Ram Gopal Varma's latest project The Attacks On 26/11 . The Big B was so profoundly moved by the film and Nana Patekar's performance as top-cop Rakesh Maria that he immediately got in touch with Nana to congratulate him.

A surprise for Nana, since he and the Big B have not exactly been on the best of terms ever since they worked together 13 years ago in Mehul Kumar's Kohram.

And that wasn't all. The Big B, known to be demonstratively lavish about his colleagues' performances, sent a bouquet and hand-written note to Nana.

image What's hot: The immensely talented Pankaj Kapur seems over-prepared for his character here. Yet he is far more dependable than the other two title characters. What's not: The pace is intentionally slow and scenes are purposely protracted, adding to the synthetic shade of the film. iDiva verdict: Matru Ki Bijlee Ka Mandola comes across as a wannabe attempt by Vishal Bharadwaj. Amongst his most disappointing and uninspiring works! Director: Vishal Bharadwaj
Cast: Pankaj Kapur, Imran Khan, Anushka Sharma

The latest development is that Ekta has also roped in Varun’s father, director David Dhawan, for the same film, now titled, Main Tera Hero. “David  is the massiest (sic) director I know. And Varun has an innate appeal. He is like a young Salman (Khan) in the making. The film is going to be very mass-oriented, but the treatment will be classy,” Ekta says. About the prospect of directing his son, David Dhawan says, “I have worked with everyone from Amitabh Bachchan, Vinod Khanna, Govinda to Salman Khan, but it’s

The song, to be choreographed by Chinni Prakash, will have almost 100 dancers and 400 extras, said a source.

If you ever happen to watch this film, chances are, you may never travel on a Rajdhani Express. The film which is largely set aboard the premium train only berates it as an express where passengers can openly consume alcohol, coach attendants ask for cigarettes, there is no water in washrooms and it takes almost double the time to complete its journey.

Nevertheless the film is not about the train per se but some passengers traveling on it. Four passengers on a coupe of the train decide to play truth and dare without getting judgmental about each other. But the

Here's looking at the movies that are worth their wait in gold. Krissh 3: Ideally sequels, and sequels to sequels are a complete put-off, what with them relying more on nostalgia value than intrinsic merit. And many of them are completely unrelated.
