Guns & roses
Actors Shreyas Talpade and Mahi Gill give us a glimpse of this laugh riot called
Agaye Se Right
Sir, meri gun kho gayi hai! That's a complaining, rather sulking cop for you. The gun is special, as it is the epicenter of the upcoming movie, Agaye Se Right. And mind it, the gun has a sticker of Hanumanji on it too. The cop bearing this loss is Shreyas Talpade, who along with co-star Mahi Gill was in the city to promote the movie. The two actors, who fall in the category of zara hatke, got chatty about things they share. Theatre, impulse for intense roles, impressive director list and critical acclaim. But not before some dose on their latest comic thriller, Agaye Se Right.
Punjabi tadka
Bollywood actors Shreyas Talpade and Mahi Gill were the bling thing at the Gitanjali Jewels store in Sector 22-D. Sharing the celebrations with Geetanjali's brand success, both also interacted with frenzied fans, giving pointers about their latest movie as well. While Mahi Gill was quite eager to check out the new jewellery items at the store, she definitely seemed smitten by the jewellery bug. The city-based actor, who is a Panjab University alumnus and Punjabi by heart, said she is thrilled to visit the city as she misses Punjabi food and home.

Emaciated farmers pushing their luck, parched fields, scheming land sharks, broken down huts - these may reflect the reality of many Indian villages, but seldom get captured in Bollywood films.Audiences prefer an escape from the hard life of rural, agrarian India on screen, while filmmakers resort to idyllic, picture postcard landscapes in films with villages as their backdrop.Actor-producer Sohail Khan’s attempt to revive the forgotten rural essence in Hindi cinema with Kisaan, which released Friday, has got a lukewarm response and not-so-encouraging reviews. It revolves around farmers being forced to sell their lands to rich businessmen.
