It's a classic reloaded. Raucously revamped, rapidly refurbished, Anurag Kashyap's retake on Sarat Chandra Chattopadhyay's iconic Devdas is raunchy enough to send the puritans into a tizzy. Dev. D takes the abstract, self-destructive indulgence of No Smoking to the next level.
Devinder Singh Dhillon (Abhay Deol), aka Dev, is bratty, vodka-in-coke loving arrogant boy who likes to have his way.Anurag Kashyap's Dev. D stars Abhay Deol, Mahi Gill and Kalki Koechlin

A Globetrotting Indian prince of classical music and compatible heir to a 500 years old musical legacy of illustrious Bhatt family of Jaipur, Salil Bhatt, is undeniably the ideal icon for promoting the classical genre in India. Credited with over dozen albums of instrumental music on Mohan Veena and further improvised Satvik Veena, Salil is the only young artist honored to be invited for music recital before the Parliament of Germany in 2005, Adelaide International Guitar festival, King of Oman, Government of Taiwan and the Ice Land as a member delegate with the President of India, Honourble APJ Abdul Kalam.

Sreedhara BhasinI feel like a dunce very morning. I curse my obstinate value system that makes me obey laws and rules. I accuse my parents for inculcating in me respect for doing the right thing—for that surely is making me a morning misfit. Chandigarh now brandishes traffic lights at almost all chowks. It has robbed us of the delight of zipping through the chowks in the morning hours. It has also imposed on us long waits at the red lights—something that only I seem to be grappling with in the morning hours. Most drivers have decided that the red light is only mandatory when there is a police car close by (which is not the case in the morning) or when a mad lorry is bearing down from the right side.
We have been keeping a pattern watch of the red light jumpers, as we call them. Some slow down when a red light comes up. They even stop for a while and then they jump the light.
