AKSHAY KUMAR ANNOUNCED AS FACE OF INDIA LUXURY STYLE WEEK -MENS EDITTION

When Akshay Kumar is said to be coming for an event, one can surely expect two things. One is that pandemonium will be created and the other is that the event will start right on time as scheduled! These two were most definitely the outcomes at the announcement of India's first men's fashion week, INDIA LUXURY STYLE WEEK 2015- Men's Edition organized by Ramesh Dembla! 

Akshay, who the is the most natural choice for a men's fashion week, what with his effortlessly stylish sense of dressing and that chiseled to perfection physique said some interesting words at the launch but more on that below. 

The event commenced with participating menswear designers (from all over India) displaying a sneak preview of their collection and then Madhurima Tuli took the stage to be the perfect emcee and say some charming words about ILSW and her favorite co-star. She said that, "Akshay, with his Greek god body and athletic appeal, can carry off virtually any ensemble under the sun, be it a sharp 3 piece suit or a sweatshirt and hoodie! Therefore, its only natural for Mr. Kumar to be the face of a fashion week that focuses exclusively on men's luxury fashion wear. The India Luxury Style Week will take place in Bangalore from 12th-16th August and with Akshay as the brand ambassador, one can only image how sizzling the week will be! A big round of applause for the man behind the genius idea of ILSW, Mr. Ramesh Dembla!" 

Akshay then walked the ramp for ace designer Ramesh Dembla who is also his very close friend for the past 26 years. The man looked his sharpest best in a powder blue suit with a stick engraved with a skull! His walk was met with thunderous applause and we did hear a few ladies swoon at his salt and pepper beard, amazing swag and infectious smile! Akshay then went on to call the man of the hour, Mr. Ramesh Dembla onstage and addressed media questions wherein he stated that, "There are 52 weeks in a year and now finally there will be one full week dedicated to men's fashion from Aug12-16 in Bangalore called ILSW! After all, women should not have all the fun of fashion weeks right?" He spoke about his strong friendship with Ramesh Dembla and said that, "Ramesh's father had financed my first film Saugandh and we go back 26 years and I have great respect for his work. He asked me to do this and so here I am." Their banter was visible when Ramesh said that, "Earlier for my fashion shows, which I have been doing since 9-10 years, I would use men as props till the women were ready, but its now time for men's fashion to take centre stage and this will happen with ILSW." At this point, Akshay cheekily chimed in saying, "I would not mind being your prop Ramesh!" Akshay also addressed a media question on wife Twinkle in an interesting fashion. When asked as to what Twinkle thinks of his style of dressing he said that she does not think anything, in fact what is her opinion becomes his opinion by default so he dare not argue! 

Krishka and Sunil Lulla were all smiles and proud of Ramesh Dembla (Krishka's brother). Also present were Anu Malik with daughter Anmol Malik, badman Gulshan Grover, Neil Nitin Mukesh, participating designers Manoviraj Khosla and Rocky S who were heard receiving praises for their collections, Smita Thackeray, Urvashi Rautela, Zarine Khan, and more!

In her quest to  explore herself sexually , and also she has a crush on the leader of her music band , only to discover that she is not accepted sexually due to her condition ,she is heart broken , her mother played by revathy consoles and  cheers her by saying that she has been granted scholarship for further studies in New York University , On reaching New York , she meets good looking guy in college Jared , who has been appointed by the prof  to do writing part on her behalf of assignments of college , she also meets Khanum a blind girl (Sayani Gupta). who also happens to be lesbian , she supports kalki on her journey of sexual exploration , there are lots of turns that take place in kalki"s life , she even gets sexualwith jared also , thereby by learning that she happens to be bisexual , she struggles between telling the truth to her mother who is alredy suffering from cancer and also telling about hvg tint with jared to khanum.
ultimately she manages to tell them both the truth but in that process she loses both of them , mother dies and khanum goes back to new york . But still after losing so much Kalki bounces back to life with support from her father and younger brother

The movie is a very well directed by Shonali Bose , many  angles of a physically disabled person .
Kalki's performance is one of the best till date , Revathy performance is excellent who is seen driving a matador while her husband sitting nxt to her singing punjabi songs while they go to drop kalki to college , Revathy has played a totally loving and caring role of a mother .

Though its not a commercial bollywood movie but it is  good watch for some strong performance and strory line

LEADING INDIAN DESIGNER MASABA GUPTA & NEWLYWED BOLLYWOOD COUPLE SOHA AND KUNAK KHEMMU PARTNER WITH AREIL TO LAUNCH FIRST OF ITS KIND 'MEN & WOMEN WASH CARE LABEL



Mumbai, 14th April, 2015: Celebrated Indian designer, Masaba Gupta, and B-town’s newly-wed couple, Soha Ali Khan and Kunal Kemmu, partnered with Ariel India, to launch a first of its kind ‘Men & Women’ wash care label, at a press conference here in Mumbai. In response to a recently conducted survey by an independent third party agency on Indian Households which revealed that nearly 76% of Indian men feel laundry is only a woman’s job*, women from across the country sparked a pan-India movement to bust gender stereotypes and end inequality within the Indian household. Supported by Ariel India, the #ShareTheLoad Movement, has seen a host of famous faces joining including the likes of Shilpa Shetty, Malaika Arora Khan, Arbaaz Khan, Amala Paul, Mandira Bedi, Neha Dhupia, Boman Irani, Sania Mirza, to name a few.
With the survey revealing that 72% of Indian women want to only marry a man who will help with household chores*, it is clear that equality within the household is a burning issue for women across the country. Following up on the recent launch of its new customized ‘His & Her’ pack, Ariel India has joined hands with designers, independent labels and retail chains to further the #ShareTheLoad Movement with an innovative and revolutionary approach. The first of its kind ‘Men and Women’ wash care label, which carries fabric care instructions and a message that with Ariel anyone can bear the laundry load, is also uniquely designed to drive the message of gender neutrality. The new label is aimed at getting men to pledge to do the laundry at home, and bust the myth that laundry is only a woman’s job.
The talented Masaba Gupta was delighted to join Ariel in this new launch,“It is my pleasure to have associated with Ariel’s ‘Share the Load’ movement and have these unique ‘Men and Women’ wash care labels inserted on my designs. We hope that this will encourage men across the country to pick up the laundry and share the load with their partners. As children, my siblings and I were encouraged to help around withall the household chores, a lesson we still follow to this very day. I am glad to have been raised in a household where ‘sharing the load’ was routine, and it’s a practice I wish to continue in my own household. I believe equal responsibilities when it comes to household chores are key to a happy and successful marriage, and I’m certain these labels will go a long way to drive that progressive message. Over 500,000 people and counting have already pledged to Share The Load!”
Talented actress Soha Ali Khan added,“Kunal has always been someone who shares the work load at home and I am glad we are here today to partner with Ariel and launch these new ‘Men and Women’ wash care labels. I’m glad we have so many partners joining this cause, fromgarments designed by Masaba to apparel available in retail outlets like Shopper’s Stop and online at American Crew, which will hopefully get men across the country to join the movement! Kunal and I having been associated with the movement right through its journey and think that this is anexcellentway of spreading the messageto the masses. Laundry is one of the easiest tasks a man can help with at home and 76% of Indian women agree*. As a working woman myself, I truly believe that equality in household chores is key to a happy marriage.”
Bollywood actor Kunal Kemmuwas equally excited, “82% of Indian men believe sharing of household work is important for a happy marriage*. It’s a widespread belief, but not too many of us practice this on a daily basis. These unique ‘Men and Women’ wash care labels will remind men across the country that laundry is not just a woman’s job. Helping each other with the chores provides Soha and me with that much more quality time and I have always been a firm believer that equality within the household inspires a quality family life which is important for a happy marriage.
Attributed to Sharat Verma, Associate Brand Director, Fabric Care, P&G India, “The survey on Indian households conducted by an independent third party agency, supported by Ariel, reinforces that Indian women feel there exists an inequality between men & women when it comes to household chores. With laundry being the face of this inequality, we encourage men to share the load of laundry at home and celebrate the pride of not only doing the laundry but also getting best stain removal in 1-wash.”

PRACHI MISHRA OF DILLIWALI ZAALIM GIRLFRIEND LAUNCHES BOOK CLINGY GIRLFRIEND


Prachi Mishra of DilliwaaliZaalim Girlfriend fame
 Unveiled 'My Clingy Girlfriend' by Madhuri Banerjee at Sante


Mumbai, April 7th, 2015: Bollywood Actress and Former Miss India Prachi Mishra of DilliwaaliZaalim Girlfriend fame, unveiled the latest book ‘My Clingy Girlfriend’ by Madhuri Banerjee at Sante, Hill Road, Bandra. She is the bestselling author of five novels and also the writer of successful Bollywood film Hate Story 2 , the book brings an uproariously howl-arious account of a simple Bengali boy in Mumbai who copes, mopes and hopes to find logic and reasoning with his clingy girlfriend.

While Prachi Mishra unveiled the book, those in attendance included eminent Authors like Rashmi Bansal, Amish Tripathi and Ravi Subramanian were present at the book launch.

Giving an insight into the book, Author Madhuri Banerjee explained, “My Clingy Girlfriend is a hilarious story of funny incidents which happen in the life of a young Bengali boy called Obrokranti and his extremely possessive and dominating girlfriend Radha. The book is through the eyes of a man who’s desperately caught between a dilemma of constantly placating his girlfriend and managing his job with idiot bosses.”

She further adds, “I decided to write this book because I wanted to challenge myself as an author and see if I could write like a man as well in a humour genre. I also wanted to show a mirror to society where there are insecure women who become possessive and nice men who are unable to understand women at all."

Bollywood Actress Prachi Mishra shared, “Madhuri is one of my favourite authors and I’m glad that she invited me for the book launch. I have read almost all her books and the role played by me in my latest film DilliwaliZaalim Girlfriend is somewhat similar to the protagonist of this book.’’

A clingy girlfriend will say: Carry two sets of fully charged mobile batteries so you can be in touch with me. Always. In my dream, you were flirting with some other girl and then ended up in bed. Dreams are a manifestation of some act that is carried out in daily life. Are you cheating on me? You have issues. You need to get therapy. Are you cheating on me? And the worst one: Why aren’t we married yet?

Obrokranti Banerjee’s girlfriend ticks all of these, and more. Caught between wanting to break up, and the fear that he’ll never find another girlfriend if he does, Obrokranti finds himself doing things he never imagined: watching Shah Rukh Khan movies, having to fast with her on karvachauth, and perhaps worst of all, having his girlfriend join him on a boys night out!

Whwn asked Prachi by the media that is she too the type of clingy girlfriend , she honestly  tells though she is defenitely not the type of clingy girlfreind but she is little bit of all the traits of a girlfreind , 

The book is released by westland publishing house with a reasonable price tag and a must read  for all fun loving peeople .

Verdict ; Inspite of 3  actors of national awardees  and filmfare awardees , the movie does not shine as the script is weak . Though performances are equally good by all 3  actors and there are some funny moments , and the director tries hard to present it as a comedy but fails as the movie does not entertain , music is as nill , so do not put youself in sankat to watch dharam sankat mein

My Ratings  ; 2*/5*
