Real take on reel
One dialogue — ‘entertainment, entertainment, entertainment’ — underlines what The Dirty Picture was all about. It wasn’t very different in the case of Paan Singh Tomar, which was less blatant though. The moral lessons attached with both movies — corruption, nepotism, gender bias come much later, only as sub-contexts. Indeed, biopics, the right mix of facts and fiction (as defined by lexicographers), got quite a transformation with The Dirty Picture and Paan Singh Tomar.

Don’t sulk, move on
Love leads people on to strange paths; some that end in a happy future together, others on a lonely unending journey and yet others on a path of vengeance. Rejection comes hard, be it a college you badly wanted to get in or the job that your co-worker bagged. The latest buzz is that online refusal is as hard as real one.

Cutting edge
The world of an artist does not end with just a paper and brush, it moves to scissors and blades.
