Hollywood’s wide angle
There is nothing unusual about the crowd that has gathered in the inner market of Manimajra — usual hustle-bustle of the shoppers, motorcycles and cycles criss-crossing through the labyrinthine lanes. There is nothing unusual about it except for the fact that we see a lot many firangis in the crowd moving about busily with their walkie-talkies!
Someone in the busy market calls out loud, 'clear the road', move the crowd out of the frame. The words sound pretty familiar and we know this is the site of action, the site of Kathryn Bigelow's next production Zero Dark Thirty, the story of the hunting down of Osama Bin Laden by the US Navy Seals. The actress Jessica Chastain is already in the city and already creating a buzz!

Spring in step
"Passion, hardwork and patience have made me a winner," says Shakti Mohan, winner of Dance India Dance 2. The petite dancer, in Chandigarh on Thursday, to announce DID L'il Masters shares with us her take on life.
Agent of change
An amazingly made butter chicken that he would eat to the last morsel, some action-packed games on PS 3, a dinner party hosted for friends, a drink near the fireplace, Agent Vinod draws out time after cracking a few cases here and there. After a running action, he sits down with a plate of boiled eggs, neatly sliced, sprinkles salt and moves back in his chair. No he isn't smoking a cigar, no hot babes around either; our Agent Vinod Saif Ali Khan is definitely not an Indian version of Bond, but he is Bond in every right!
Exotic locale, Punjabi flavour
For Bollywood, it’s an easy gamble to shoot in the exotic locales of say Spain, America or Prague. But it is definitely big news when a Punjabi films moves out of the mustard fields and shifts base to the land of sun, sand and skin—Goa. Making his debut as an actor and director in his home production, Savy Dadwal is taking his film, Yamley Jatt Yamley, to Goa.
The musical romantic comedy goes on the floors on Friday and will incorporate a shooting schedule of 30 days in Punjab and 15 in
Goa. Apart from Savy Dadwal and Jonita Doda in lead roles, the film will also have actors like Gurpreet
Ghuggi, Rana Ranbir, Gugu Gill, Sorab Rajpurohit and comedy queen Bharti Singh.
