Playing a wretchedly unhappy scion of a criminal family in Kanu Behl’s crime drama Titli in 2015, Shashank Arora defined a new-age protagonist who was just a face in the crowd until you rubbed him the wrong way.

In Rock On 2 , Farhan Akhtar, Arjun Rampal, and Purab Kohli rightly hogged the limelight. It was the enormously talented Shashank Arora who, as the new recruit in the band, got the sur of his character right even though he had the least amount of space to grow. The lad was hungry for opportunity. He grabbed what he got with both hands.

The promising young actor entered a completely new world of crime grime and slime in Titli. “It was very tough. The difficulty was not as much the criminal mindset but in creating his body language and motives, which stemmed from his experiences. Workshops were what really helped me lose this upper middle class demeanour,...

Kojima took to social media to share a photograph that references a curse in the film, which is loosely based on a real incident. However, given the curse’s nature, Kojima might have lightened its effect by sharing it with everyone who follows him.

ReviewThe film, based on litterateur and humanist Poornachandra Tejaswi’s short story, is a wholesome, precious watch in today’s world filled with division and hate.Sometime in 1973, when the world in retrospect seems way better than it was today, Poornachandra Tejaswi wrote a short story about a Muslim boy entering a Hindu-only government college in a place called Abachur. He’s seen as an alien, someone whose culture stands out, in a college filled with Hindus. The village is pretty and everything looks picture perfect, but there’s a deep undercurrent of resentment between the Hindus and Muslims there after a Hindu girl and a Muslim boy eloped. How will Musthafa (a fabulous Shishir Baikady) fit in? The teacher struggles to pronounce his name — Jamal Abdullah Mustafa Hussain — and director Shashank Soghal builds up every trope of Muslims that we have been fed over the years before breaking each...

It is a digital platform for regional contents with currently more than thousand artists from Haryana.

He said: “It was Shashank among us who applied for ‘Shark Tank India 2’. We didn’t really take it seriously in the beginning as we thought we have passed the stage at which sharks usually invest and so it won’t be relevant. As we went through the process, the interest started to grow and it became clear that it is not just about getting the funding, but the exposure that the show can give is just unmatchable.”

Vinay said that they have asked for 3 crore for one per cent equity from the sharks and hope to...
