booked the group under the NDPS Act She later underwent a medical test at a private hospital but the High Court held that the report could not be considered reliable in the absence of standardised forensic parameters in the countryThe court pointed out several gaps in the process including a lack of a national nodal drug testing laboratory the absence of approved protocols for analysing blood and urine samples and the unreliability of tests conducted without uniform scientific standards Given these shortcomings the bench ruled that the proceedings against the actress could not continueThe

different No two people are the same Obviously no two actresses can be the same Because I think actresses are a little more different in their process of living and a little more clear because they are so conscious of what they do So I think it all depends on what works for youExplaining her point of view further by using herself as an example Krithi Shetty said Personally I can work 24 hours because I might have the energy to I dont have as many family responsibilities to take care of I am willing to I am a directors actor If the director requires me to work 13 hours I am completely willing to In fact while shooting for this film I was doing double shifts One in Hyderabad and one here in Chennai Right now I am willing to work because I have the energy But if someone doesnt I particularly dont see it as a wrong thingThe actress explained that the working hours factor would not be an issue if everything was discussed in advance If the director and the producers know in advance that an actor is willing to work these long hours then there is no issue If not they can look for another person So I think it depends on the individual And its healthier if its discussed in

word âbeautyâ and that she hopes sheâs remembered for something more meaningful when it comes to her personal aesthetic reports peoplecomâI dont like the word beauty Ive always preferred the word swagger So my legacy would be She had good swaggerâ â Mirren saidThe actress had previously opened up about her biggest red carpet style hack noting that itâs all about the footwearIve learned over the years your shoes have to be bearable Mirren said during the Cannes Film Festival in MayThey dont necessarily have to be comfortable And in fact comfortable sometimes is a bit boring and you want cool shoes But they have to be bearable because if youre in unbearable pain that is going to reflect on your face and your posture and everything So you start with the shoes and just make sure that youre secure in them and theyre bearableShe also shared that sheâs reached a stage in her career where she values comfort in fashion while said that wasnât always the caseIve come to a point where I just want my red carpet outfit to be comfortable as well she said while at CannesBeauty knows no pain I have been there more than once you know sucking up the pain for my vanity But again it reflects on your face if youre comfortableâShe added that she views a red carpet as a performative experienceâA red carpet is a performance It is like going onstage really and I treat it as such Its a sort of wonderful fun silly performance Its not going to last forever It has huge meaning for a second or two and then the meaning is gone and were onto something elseâ The Queen actress saidIn an interview in October Mirren reflected on the process of aging and why she considers reaching the milestone age of 80 âbeautifulâI find everything about it fabulous she told the outletIm alive and Im working and

lasting recall value and why todayâs content struggle to hold attention pointing to the impact of constant scrolling and reel consumption Talking to IANS Ayesha said that audiences earlier could sit

have to keep looking at your Instagram then youre watching a movie then youre looking at your phone then youre watching a movieâ Ayesha told IANSâYou cannot even focus on watching a movie So that is because everything is because of reels The scrolling if you dont engage within the first 2 seconds youve moved upâ she addedAyesha added that the pressure to grab viewers within seconds has reshaped storytellingâSo in a series you have to work hard You have to understand the story In the first episode you have to grasp what the person is saying What is the storyâShe also expressed concern that commercial considerations increasingly dictate stories and casting While calling it a natural part of the medium she said the creative side is sufferingâAnd also unfortunately commercials are dictating your stories Commercials are dictating your casting Which is a good thing Its a commercial medium But there is a creative side to our medium which is being I feel right now neglectedââBecause I feel that if you get back to your writers we have great writers in this country But unfortunately a lot of writers are out of work right now A lot of writersâAyesha said a return to original rooted narratives is the only way to restore strong recall valueâSo I think that lets get back to our stories Our stories of our country stories of our people stories of our land if we make them they will be 100 recall valueâ said the actress who will be seen in Netflixâs âSingle Papaâ alongside Manoj Pahwa Kunal Kemmu Prajakta Koli and Neha Dhupia IANS

âBol Baby Bolâ and âJust Mohabbatâ to name a few acclaimed actor Manoj Pahwa has reflected on why television shows from the 1990s are still etched in minds saying the era thrived because content was

including its film and TV studios and its gaming business among others acclaimed filmmaker Shekhar Kapur questioned that the conversation is missing the most critical point which is the individual consumer Taking to X formerly called Twitter Shekhar shared that while industry discussions focus on corporate strategy profitability and longterm business projections they are built on a flawed assumption that large corporations can predict or steer what individuals will choose to watchShekhar wrote âIn the impending purchase of Warner Brothers by Netflix everyone is looking at corporate strategy corporate profitability long term bussinessand assumptions about what the consumers will wantâsicââAs if a large pool of historical IP matched by delivery power to consumers at current state of technology is the future but most of those assumptions are wrong why Because a consumer is an individual and makes individual choices and the assumption that at large scale corporations can predict or even direct an individualâs choice is fundamentally falseâsicâHe highlighted that this belief is even more misplaced today with the rapid rise of AI which he tagged as âthe most democratic technology we have had in a long timeââEven more so with the onset of AI For AI is the most democratic technology that we have had for a long time primarily because itâs gives each individual the power of choice and the ability to exert that individual power and AI will give the individual the power to influence the collective sicâAs per Shekhar who has been feted with a BAFTA Award a National Film Award a National Board of Review Award and a nomination for a Golden Globe Award AI will dismantle the traditional idea of scale as an advantageâAnd therefore AI will be anti size or anti the ability to encapsulate or force consumers to choose according to corporate board room decisionsââThe filmmaker said that AI will âallow really sophisticated content to be created by individuals at far far lower costs than the corporations can ever manage and be shared directly with other individualsââBe it via YouTube or other platforms that could soon be created AI will allow the battle between the democracy of individual content creation and the gatekeepers of content to be a one sided contest in favour of the individualâPointing to the rise of TikTok which achieved nearbilliondollar valuation before Hollywood understood its impact HE said microdramas and lowbudget formats are becoming global sensations With AI lowering the barrier to entry even further he believes the traditional gatekeepers of content are in âserious troubleââDonât forget that Tik Tok was almost a Billion Dollar valuation even before Hollywood had caught on to it and now MicroDramaâs are becoming really popular which can be created at such low costs AI has lowered the entry bar to what was once high budget content so much that the GateKeepers of content are in serious trouble sicâ IANS

responsibility I chose to sing in both Romanian and Hindi because I wanted both parts of my identity to be present at the Vatican I am already half Indian at heart so it felt naturalShe added I performed two songs that shaped my career La Betleem Colo Joos the Romanian version of Teri Meri which was actually the original composition and of course Teri Meri Many years ago I sang the Romanian version and when Himesh Reshammiya and the team heard it they recreated it into the Teri Meri you all know today Its a song that touches hearts and I wanted the message to reach people there as wellThe singer further said Honestly I didnt have much time to prepare which turned out to be a blessing because I didnt have time to overthink I remember during rehearsals before the microphones arrived I tested the acoustics of the huge auditorium My voice just travelled through the space so beautifully that I felt we didnt even need mics That was one of the most special momentsTalking about a special moment Lulia revealed One of the organisers was so moved during the rehearsal that she told me the next day she dreamed of me singing That meant so muchThe singer further elaborated At first I was invited only to be part of a global anthem called We Are the New World created by Pooh Bear a renowned American producer It carries a strong message of unity kindness and contributing to a world that is changing so fast Later they asked if I wanted to perform additional songs of my choice and it came naturally to choose La Betleem Colo Joos Teri Meri and my upcoming Christmas carol It all felt guided as if someone above had already chosen for meThe Echoes of Us actress further spoke about her upcoming projectsShe told IANS I just shot an action film in the UK and Iâll soon release a new Romanian Christmas song with a fresh sound that people seem to enjoy even if they donât know the language I also have two love songs in two different Indian films one in Echoes of Us and the other

receiving great reviews for his latest web series Perfect Family The actor who filmed an intimate scene in the series with the current National Crush Girija Oak spoke to IANS about the sensitivity and sensibility involved while shooting it Its always very difficult to do such scenes because there is a line that we cannot cross said Gulshan talking to IANSSimulating intimacy or violence is very tricky as there is always a boundary you cant go beyond yet you still have to create the illusion of it being real So you must find ways to do it responsibly he addedWhen I am working with someone they have to trust me and I have to trust them so that we take care of each other You have to build that trust quickly especially when you dont know the person very wellThe actor spoke about the involvement of intimacy coordinators on setSometimes there are intimacy coordinators like in Ulajh we had one from the UK who guided us stepbystep through the process and made everyone feel comfortable Its a different matter that later threequarters of those scenes were cut from the film Nothing much remained in the final version but thats how it is sometimesThe actor also said Over time I have become more experienced with such scenes Back when we were shooting Hate Story in 2012 there were no intimacy coordinators or anyone to help us navigate these things We had to figure everything out on our own Thankfully I was working with Paoli Dam who was very supportive and made me feel comfortable throughoutTalking about Gulshan the actor has been on a roll with his backtoback projects that have yet again proven his acting prowessWhen IANS asked Gulshan about casting for shows and movies based on the number of social media followers he said I dont give a shit Its a trend Is it valid Does it have any real merit I dont knowI am not sure if all those followers are actually translating into subscriptions or ticket sales I dont know But somebody who knows better than me is making these decisions and maybe they think its a good idea to hire someone based on thatHe added Some of those people are actually pretty decent too they are good actors I dont want to say anything negative about anyone Everyone should find their own wayCiting his own social media example Gulshan said Now open my social media and see how many followers I have I dont even have 300K Yet I am getting work

thing that I could say more than anything is that if you love this profession if you love being an actor you have to realise that itâs a marathon itâs not a sprintââAnd thatâs not to say Oh these are all pivotal choices Donât try something commercial Donât do this too early Itâs about the idea of looking at your career 20 30 40 50 years from now and putting those building blocks together to last

where I watched actors that kind of disappeared their personal life and you didnât know much about them Itâs much different now with social media But I didnât get to know much about them except what I saw on screenDiCaprio said that he was very lucky very early on in his career However the actor appeared in a lot of independent movies before making his big breakthrough reports femalefirstcoukHe said I got to see them build a body of great work over time I wasnât inundated with a massive explosion of too many films by them in one or two years That isnât to say you shouldnât take the work when itâs given to you but itâs the idea of doling it out or maybe just taking those films that have great supporting characters that are interesting and making your mark in the industryâI was very fortunate and very lucky very early on And like I said with Titanic that was the real changing point when I got to choose my own films But until then I did a lot of independent movies I just went for

Court challenging its single bench judgment that quashed the A certificate and mandated cuts imposed on the Malayalam film Haal The Union Government has filed the appeal along with the Regional Officer Chairman and Revising Committee of the Central Board of Film Certification CBFCThis is the second challenge to the verdictEarlier the Kerala Catholic Congress had also approached the courtIn its plea the Centre argued that the Single Bench should not have entertained the filmmakers petition under Article 226 of the Constitution in the presence of a statutory appeal mechanism available under the Cinematograph ActThe government maintained that the CBFCs Acertificate was justified given the overall impact of the film and its portrayal of interfaith relationshipsAccording to the appeal the theme and treatment of the subject required mature audiencesA Division Bench comprising Justice Sushrut Arvind Dharmadhikari and Justice PV Balakrishnan took up both appeals together on ThursdayThe Centre raised the maintainability objection contending that the writ petition itself ought not to have been admittedThe Bench observed that the absence of specific High Court Rules governing appeals from CBFC orders had created a procedural vacuumThere must be some provision in the Rules of the High Court Since there is no provision and Rules have not been framed the only remedy available is under Article 226 the Bench said orallyThe judges indicated that they would direct the Registrar General to take steps to frame rules and set a nomenclature for such appeals so that future challenges to CBFC decisions can be properly entertainedA detailed hearing however was postponed after counsel for the filmmakers sought adjournmentThe Bench had earlier while considering the Catholic Congress appeal stated that it would watch the film before issuing any orders and warned that costs could be imposed if allegations of objectionable content turned out to be unfoundedOn Thursday Justice Dharmadhikari remarked in open court We saw the movie yesterday I enjoyed it I understood at least 50 per cent because of the subtitlesThe matter will be taken up again on December 8

the Catholic Congress challenging a Single Judges order that directed the Central Board of Film Certification CBFC to reconsider the Acertificate issued to Malayalam film Haal without enforcing certain suggested cuts The Catholic Congress argued that the movie falsely portrays the Bishop as supporting interfaith marriages contrary to his known public position It also objected to the use of visuals showing the Bishops residence without consentThe appeal sought reinstatement of Excision 2 to 4 recommended by the CBFCExcision 2 involved cutting a police interrogation scene with schoolboys over claims of stereotyping religious communitiesExcision 3 related to scenes allegedly hurting Christian sentiments and demanded blurring a Christian institution and seeking permission for filming the Bishopâs houseExcision 4 suggested modifying scenes showing police and state authorities in a negative light especially regarding discrimination against religious groupsA Division Bench comprising Justice Sushrut Arvind Dharmadhikari and Justice PV Balakrishnan questioned the maintainability of the appeal noting that the Catholic Congress being a respondent in the original case may not have legal standing to seek reliefYou are not the petitioner You cant get any relief You have to file another writ petition the bench remarked orallyAdvocate Shinu J Pillai representing the Catholic Congress argued that the appeal was valid under Section 5 of the Kerala High Court Act since the Single Judge treated the matter as a writ petition under Article 226The counsel insisted that the

earlier Talking to IANS exclusively director Mithun Balaji and actor Gomathi Shankar who has also co written the script for the film which is to stream on the OTT platform Netflix from December 5 said that a short film that was based on the character of Stephen had gone on to win awards and that inspired them to take this project up In around 2020 we did a short film which we cowrote That short film is based on Stephen We got a very good reception for the short film across short film festivals The short film was about this character and people liked it We did not really think people would give much about serial killers and we treated it a bit differently explained Gomathi ShankarHow was it different There was no violence in that short film It was about 10 minutes long And it was a conversation by a serial killer with a psychiatrist People found it interesting We got a few awards for it which really encouraged us The short film won awards for best actor best director and best film and we were very surprised but we were very thrilled So we thought why not make a sequel for a short film he addedAs we cowrote that script we found it had a run time of 40 minutes We bounced that script off our team comprising of aspiring directors and writers and everybody seemed to like it One person in that team suggested that we make it into a feature film You guys have written for 40 minutes If you just push it further it will become a feature And we were like okay We thought wed add content for 15 more minutes but that took years We wrote for oneandahalf years and we got a feature film he explained The film which has been produced by Jayakumar and Mohan will feature Michael Thangadurai in a pivotal role The muchawaited thriller is to release on the OTT platform Netflix on December 5In a world where reality is often stranger than fiction the makers say Stephen will dare to question everything one thinks one knows about guilt and innocenceStephen will be a tense

Sippy spill the beans over how the late supervillain Amjad Khan got on board for the iconic character of Gabbar in the movie âAmjad Khan himself was a discovery I had seen him earlier in a play with my sister about South Africa and I remembered he was a good actor but I had completely forgotten about himâHe added âWhen SalimâJaved suggested we look at him it clicked He came in for the part but only because Danny Denzongpa who was originally signed for Gabbar was in Afghanistan shooting with Mr Feroz Khan and couldnât return We didnât have to make changes anywhere because of the language or accent especially for Gabbar Amajdâs UPstyle accent worked beautifully âThe filmmaker concluded âDannyâs absence gave birth to Amjad Khan as Gabbar and the rest is historyâ He also discussed how the filmâs Rocky Mountains and barren landscape immortalised as Gabbarâs territory later became symbolic of dacoit land Ramesh also shared insights into how this iconic location was first discovered âWe chose that particular location because all the dacoit films until then had been shot in the North Rajasthan the Chambal Valley and similar places I felt it was time to find a new fresh locationâHe elaborated âWe went down South and I saw this rocky area around 50 kilometres out of Bangalore on the way to Mysore I just stood there looking at it and felt âthis is the right placeâ I canât explain it it just happened We faced many challenges there but shooting in that location gave the film a whole new look No set could have created thatâ Sippy further said âPeople often say this was the first time a dacoit film wasnât set in the typical Chambal regionFor the first time the backdrop was actually in the South and this location was suggested by our art director MR Achrekar And I immediately liked the place For the first time people saw dacoits in a landscape completely different from what had always been shown before and it brought a fresh visual identity to the subject Shooting around Bangalore and beyond gave the film a distinct tone he addedTalking about Sholay the movie starred Amitabh Bachchan Dharmendra Sanjeev Kumar Amjad Khan Jaya Bachchan and Hema Malini in the lead The movie that was released in 1975 is considered to be one of the most iconic movies of all timeThe cult classic gave audiences not just iconic songs but characters such as Jay Veeru Basanti Thakur and
