An image makeover for corporate filmwallahs
For a body that has always been referred to as the `film industry,' Bollywood has had the official tag put on it after 90 long years. This recognition would open doors that had so far kept out what was always considered a highly disorganised and risky business.
Babble of politics
It could be perhaps counted as another episode in the politicisation of Mumbai. Newspapers have been attacked, artists have been heckled, wickets have been dug, music shows have been disrupted, film screenings stopped...now its the Sheriff's turn to face the music.
Chalo America
Piyush Jha has made a funny, quirky film on a shoestring budget. The film stars Aashish Chaudhary, Mandar Shinde and Deven Bhojani as three lukhas with just one dream preying on their minds - to get to the kingdom of Coca Cola and Clinton.
