Starring Pulkit Samrat, Yami Gautam

Now get this. Junooniyat is directed by Vivek Agnihotri, whose last film was the political backfire Buddha In A Traffic Jam. And this film, which could be re-christened ‘Screenplay In A Traffic Jam’, stars Pulkit (Salman Khan) Samrat with Yami (Vicky Donor) Gautam who were last seen as couple three months ago in Sanam Re.

Temptation, as they say, comes in many forms.

If you still find the prospect of seeing Junooniyat tempting then go right ahead. You only have yourself to blame for what lies in store. If Mills & Boon were a Bollywood franchise Junooniyat could be the masthead for the sections devoted to morons. The lovelorn tale is one stretched-out he-loves-me-she-loves-me-not yarn-fest based on absurd coincidences that make no sense in this era of instant communication when every misunderstanding between lovers can be cleared with just one click of a phone.

So sample this.

Veteran actor Anupam Kher doesn't mince words when it comes to voicing his opinion. Recently, his film Buddha Stuck in a Traffic Jam was supposed to be screened at the Jnu campus but it seems that the screening of this film based on social issues did not go as planned. Anupam Kher, who is also an active supporter of Bjp, accused the Jnu authorities of double standards for not screening his film. The director of the film, Vivek Agnihotri took to Twitter to talk about the film's Jnu screening saying, "Why isn't #BuddhaInATrafficJam allowed to screen at #Jnu coz it exposes sinister politics? Or coz it features @AnupamPkher or selective FoE?" Anupam Kher, who too was miffed about the same, stated that only few get to exercise their freedom within the university, taking a dig at the authorities. On the other hand, the university authorities had a different story to tell.

Jimmy Fallon has less than a month left at ‘Late Night’ but he’s going out with a bang! He took on the infamous September traffic jam and took some serious jabs at Chris Christie in a new skit — watch the video below!

On Jan. 14, Jimmy Fallon appeared on stage to perform ”Gov. Christie’s Fort Lee, New Jersey Traffic Jam,” a custom song set to the music of Bruce Springsteen’s hit “Born to Run.” He wasn’t on stage alone for long — the Boss himself joined him in the song mocking Governor Chris Christie!

Jimmy Fallon & Bruce Springsteen Mock Gov. Christie

While the scandal surrounding the traffic jam on the George Washington bridge isn’t one that Gov. Christie is laughing about, Jimmy thought it was the perfect topic for a joke.

Coming out on stage in a throw-back Springsteen outfit — a denim cut-off tee, sunglasses and a red bandana,...

New York (AP) — Gov. Chris Christie's favorite rock star had something to say about the bridge scandal that's cost a couple Christie loyalists their jobs. Appearing on NBC's "Late Night With Jimmy Fallon," Bruce Springsteen joined the comedian in a "Born to Run" parody called "Gov. Chris Christie's Fort Lee, New Jersey Traffic Jam." Fallon sang, "They shut down the tollbooths of glory 'cause we didn't endorse Chris Christie." Clad in matching sleeveless denim shirts, red bandannas and sunglasses, the duo sang, "You're killing the working man/who's stuck in Governor Christie's Fort Lee, New Jersey traffic jam." Christie considers himself...

New Jersey has been at the center of news coverage as of late thanks to Governor Chris Christie’s “Bridgegate” and Garden State native Bruce Springsteen has something to say.

Last night (January 14) the “Born in the USA” rocker showed up at “Late Night with Jimmy Fallon” to sing “Governor Christie Traffic Jam” to the tune of his classic hit “Born to Run.”

Fallon came out first, dressed in a sleeveless denim shirt, bandana, and sunglasses, and was quickly joined by Springsteen who appeared to surprise him.

Bruce sang, "You've got Wall Street masters stuck cheek-to-cheek with blue-collar truckers… And I really gotta take a leak."...

What’s better than Jimmy Fallon picking up his guitar and putting on a wig to parody Bruce Springsteen’s “Born to Run” to make fun of Chris Christie’s George Washington Bridge scandal? Having Springsteen join pick up his guitar and put on a wig to join him on stage. NBC’s “Late Night” host jammed alongside the New Jersey rock star to belt out “Gov. Chris Christie Traffic Jam” (above) on Tuesday night.

R&B crooner Vedo already felt like a champion at the end of The Voice‘s Season 4 Blind Auditions — mainly because he’d been able to share the experience with his mother, who was gravely ill with lung cancer and succumbed to the disease shortly thereafter.

“That meant the world, man,” he says. “The doctors had advised her not to travel, because [she was undergoing] chemotherapy. But she was just like, ‘I have to go. This is my son’s first huge appearance on TV, and I really want to be there.’ A lot of people don’t know, but the day she arrived from Indiana,...

My dad would love this film. He raised me on a diet of Status Quo, Queen and Gloria Estefan (no really), so this documentary was practically made for him. Naturally, if you’re a fellow Quo fan you’ll love it too.

But what if you’re not? What if you don’t miss long hair, making denim look good, and Brian May talking music instead of badger culls? In short, what if you’re a young person – are the life, times and reunion of this supposedly seminal band really for you?

For legal reasons: absolutely. How else would you discover that Status Quo once sued the BBC after Radio One quit playing their records on the grounds they were “too old”?

In all seriousness, it’s anecdotes like that which make Hello Quo! a treat for anybody. The rags to riches tale – following the band from grimy East End...

The noted writer makes his first in-game appearance minus his famous cap and suspenders.

Even if the critical response hasn't been kind, the Game of Thrones game is out there in the wild. And for the fan of the series (either the novels or the hit HBO series), developer Cyanide Studios has included a treat with author George R. R. Martin making his video game debut as a Maester (usually an adviser to a noble or king) in the game's campaign.

If that is the author's voice, this represents his second acting gig since his cameo as a patron in the 1980's Beauty and the Beast series for which he was a writer and producer.

Kinect Star Wars Composers Gordy Haab and Kyle Newmaster

Kinect: Star Wars was supposed to take players to a galaxy far, far away in ways unlike any other game. While the overall reviews were mixed, the game definitely had some high points, and some low ones – coincidently, the game's music happened to fall into both categories. While many critics, fans, and Star Wars enthusiasts took a bit of exception to the Dance Central-inspired, Galactic Dance-Off mode, the rest of the game's soundtrack was outstanding. It may have not been composed by the immortal John Williams, but two long-time Star Wars fans and franchise veterans, Gordy Haab and Kyle Newmaster, evoked the essence of the movies, while maintaining the fresh feel of the game. In case you missed out on the epic music from the game, never fear, you can give some of the best tracks a listen here while getting...

Capcom has announced "Ex-Troopers," a spinoff of their Lost Planet series for PS3 and 3Ds.

This information comes courtesy of Japanese gaming magazine, Famitsu (translated via Andriasang), where it's revealed that the game will be developed by Monster Hunter producer, Shintaro Kojima.

While Ex-Troopers takes place in the same world as Lost Planet, it will have a completely different anime visual style and be centered around a school. Also, it will use "manga demo" cutscenes ala the forthcoming Gravity Rush. Despite this change in tone, Ex-Troopers will still be a shooter, albeit one originally conceived as a "beginners' action shooter," according to Kojima.

You'll play as a Bren Turner, a new recruit at the academy who's recently arrived on planet Edn-3rd after coming from Edn-2nd. Another announced character is Teekee, a female snow pirate who can communicate the Akrid i.e. giant bugs the snow pirates are at war with.

"It is always believed that business students have nothing to do with film making. But right from marketing and raising money for the film to its promotion and publicity classifies as a job of a business management student. Also, we are no less in creativity," Ravi Agnihotri, one of the student members of Friday Night Productions told Pti. With a star cast that includes veterans like Anupam Kher and Pallavi Joshi,...

The FCC's chairman warned Wednesday of ''a looming spectrum crisis'' if the government fails to find ways to come up with more bandwidth for mobile devices.

Julius Genachowski said the government is tripling the amount of spectrum available for commercial uses. The problem is that many industry experts predict wireless traffic will increase 30 times because of online video and other bandwidth-heavy applications.
