A culinary journey Best-selling author, traveller, culinary adventurer... the list is endless, but in this food-obsessed world, Anthony Bourdain has carved out a place as a gastronomic Indiana Jones. A 28-year veteran of professional kitchens, Anthony is currently the Executive Chef at Brasserie Les Halles in Manhattan and lives in New York City. The Discovery Travel & Living’s series Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations, starting on July 12, follows his quest to seek out the true experiences and food that flavour the world’s cultures, viewers journey to far-out places, from Iceland to New Zealand to Paris to New Jersey.
Mean street thriller The Departed on Saturday at 9 p.m. on HBO, directed by Oscar-winner Martin Scorsese, is a cop-and-Mafia thriller. It follows mobsters and policemen on the streets of Boston. The film has won four Academy Awards in 2006, including Best Picture. At its core are two young cops-one a rising star of the force, who happens to be an informant for local mob boss Frank Costello; the other a hard-luck kid, who takes on the thankless and deadly job of going undercover to infiltrate Costello's organisation. Leonardo DiCaprio, Matt Damon, Jack Nicholson and Best Supporting Actor Oscar-nominee Mark Wahlberg head up the cast of this gripper that Variety terms as a 'juicy movie with a bloody streak. — NF

THE
reigning queen of kitsch Rakhi Sawant is all set to spice up things on
the small screen. Though Rakhi is tight-lipped about the people behind
the project or the channel that will be airing it, she seems all
excited about the content of the talk show. "All I can tell you
is that I will be hosting a Bollywood gossip-based show," says
Rakhi. But this may not be your innocent-barbs-at-superstars kind of a
show. Its USP lies in the fact that Rakhi will be doing the real
behind-the-scenes masala stuff, which is likely to put to shade all
sensational stuff published in film magazines. Rakhi confirms that
she's already started shooting and has done a scorching promo for the
talk show.
