Of big breaks and break-ups

Jab We Met, starring Shahid Kapur [Images] and Kareena Kapoor, has plenty of Punjabi flavour but if you just look at the title, you may think it is a film bound for the multiplexes.

If you like the film's title, thank Shahid's father, Pankaj Kapoor, for it. Meanwhile, Shahid will tell you that despite the unconventional title, the film is aimed at a very large audience.

Sehwag replaces Dravid for first two one-dayers

Virender Sehwag makes a comeback, as does Gautam Gambhir, who recently recovered from a groin strain, while Uttar Pradesh allrounder Praveen Kumar is the only new face. The series kicks off on November 5, with the first ODI in Guwahati.

Niranjan Shah, the BCCI sercretary, annoucing the squad and said the 15 were picked in consultation with Mahendra Singh Dhoni, the Indian captain, who couldn't be present at the selection committee meeting, which took place at Motera in Ahmedabad where the Challenger Trophy is being played.

Kumar was picked for the allrounder's slot ahead of Joginder Sharma, who was part of India's winning team at the ICC World Twenty20. Vengsarkar said Kumar was preferred considering current form.

Squad for first two one-dayers Sachin Tendulkar, Sourav Ganguly, Gautam Gambhir, Virender Sehwag, Robin Uthappa, Rohit Sharma, Yuvraj Singh, Mahendra Singh Dhoni (capt & wk), Irfan Pathan, Praveen Kumar, Zaheer Khan, RP Singh, Sreesanth, Harbhajan Singh, Murali Kartik.

Bhangra meets Disney, courtesy Shankar Ehsaan Loy

Musicians Shankar, Ehsaan and Loy have a new ace up their sleeves. They're going back to school, High School actually, as they compose music for a Disney film.


When Disney meets bhangra, what you get is truly fun. Disney television film High School Musical 2 is ready to woo its Indian audience with some very desi beats, courtesy music composers Shankar, Ehsaan and Loy. They have composed three additional songs to add to the musical -- a first of its kind.

Review: No Smoking is a colossal disappointment

Cast: John Abraham, Ayesha Takia


Direction: Anurag Kashyap


The film is an arrogant piece of work that reeks of over-confidence.


Indulgent to the point of alienating his audience, director Anurag Kashyap steals the premise of No Smoking from a segment in the 1985 film Cat's Eye, adapted from Stephen King's anthology of fear stories.


In Kashyap's film, John Abraham plays a chain-smoking businessman who agrees to quit smoking when his wife Ayesha Takia threatens to leave him. He signs up at a dungeon-like rehabilitation centre run by Paresh Rawal whose idea of therapy is a tad unconventional – it involves severe punishments like having one's fingers chopped off, or one's family knocked off every time one reaches for a smoke.

Review: Jab We Met an engaging watch | Making

Cast: Shahid Kapur, Kareena Kapoor


Direction: Imtiaz Ali


Who can resist a good love story, and this week's new release Jab We Met is exactly that – a warm, fuzzy, and for the most part, original love story. Both passengers on a Delhi-bound train, Shahid Kapur stars as Aditya, a dejected young fellow who's nursing a broken heart when he bumps into Geet, the annoyingly cheerful chatterbox played by Kareena Kapoor.


At first exasperated by her over-enthusiastic disposition, Aditya soon warms up to Geet's spontaneity and even embraces her inherent joie de vivre when he's forced to make a long journey with her.

The great Indian circus dying a slow death

Hundred performers and over 40 different acts perfected after years of practice and performance. It's one of India's great entertainment traditions. Welcome to the world of circus.


But who's watching? Today the circus barely has an audience. Even with tickets costing as little as Rs 25, the seats remain empty. The Indian circus is barely surviving. What made it go out of fashion? Why are people not queuing up outside these tents? What motivates circus artists to risk their lives for hundreds of empty chairs?
