on a funny note and the movie
turns up interesting at the right
time. The performance of Akshay

Rangoon is one
of the finest Vishal
Bharadwaj’s
movies and the
performances by
the lead actors
elevate the film
well. An intense
love saga laced
with the back-
ground of second
world war.
Rangoon
3/5
Analysis :
The first half of Rangoon starts with
a bang and all the three leading ac-
tors thrive to perform to their best.
Especially Shahid and Kangana
have been outstanding. The movie
has a predictable plot but it is the
narration of the characters and
their performances which lead the
show. The entire first half has been
decent and the songs have been
extremely colorful. The performanc-
es by the lead actors make a strong
impact across the audience.
The second half of the film manag-
es to stand convincing but it is the
slow pace and dragged episodes
that disturb the audience. The
songs have been shot well and the
backdrop of Second World War has
been extremely convincing. The
pre-climax episodes make the film
interesting and intense. The climax
has been decent and on the whole,
Rangoon is quite convincing if one
ignores some flaws.
Final Word:
Rangoon is one of the finest Vishal
Bharadwaj’s movies and the perfor-
mances by the lead actors elevate
the film well. An intense love saga
laced with the background of sec-
ond world war.
Story :
Rangoon is an intense love story
that has been set during 1940s
during the Second World War.
Rangoon revolves around three
characters Russi Billimoria (Saif
Ali Khan), Jamadar Nawab Malik
(Shahid Kapoor) and Julia (Kan-
gana Ranaut). While Russi is
an action hero and a filmmaker,
Julia is a famous actress and
Nawab is the game changer.
Rangoon is all about the love
stories between them and is
showcased about the love, pas-
sion and emotions. Watch Ran-
goon to know about the com-
plete story and what happened
next.

Nenu Local is
Nani’s one man

thy Suresh looks
adorable and
Nenu Local is an

mercial mass
entertainer.
Nenu Local

EVIEW
TOLLYWOOD
Story :
Nenu Local is the story of Babu
(Nani) who is careless about
his career and loves to lead a
simple life. He falls in love with
Keerthy (Keerthy Suresh) who
aims bigger in life. By the time
he convinces her, Babu gets the
real twist in his life. He manages
to stand strong despite of the
problems and the rest of Nenu
Local is all about how he wins
his girl and settles in life. Watch
Nenu Local to know about the
rest.
Analysis :
The first half of Nenu Local looks
completely entertaining and racy.
The movie has a packed love
story which impresses the audi-
ence to the core. The songs look
extremely fresh and they have
been placed well. The interval
episode make the film interesting
and Nani dominates the show with
his flawless comic timing. On the
whole the complete first half has
been entertaining throughout.
The second half of Nenu Local too
manages to stand tall and Nani
keeps the film going with his mo-
mentum. Some of the emotional
episodes will impress the family
audience big time and the movie
turns slower at parts. It is the pre-
climax episodes that gain back
the momentum. The climax is a
huge asset for the film and on the
whole the second half of Nenu Lo-
cal makes no mistake and keeps
the audience engaging.
Final Word:
Nenu Local is Nani’s one man
show all over and for the first time
he excelled completely in a mass

able and Nenu Local is an out and

Om Namo Ven-
katesaya is one
of the finest devo-
tional entertainers
in the recent times.
Nagarjuna excels
in his role and the
devotional narra-
tion along with the
songs, performanc-
es make Om Namo
Venkatesaya a
decent one time
watch.
Om Namo Venkatesaya
Analysis :
The first half of Om Namo Venkate-
saya runs on a slow pace though
it has enough stuff to narrate. The
movie picks up at times however
the slow narration and the way the
characters have been presented will
please everyone. The songs have
been completely fresh and they have
been placed at the right points. With
an interesting interval episode, the
first half of Om Namo Venkatesaya
looks decent.
The second half dips down badly
because of the unwanted stuff oc-
cupying the major time. However the
film picks back again and keeps the
audience engaging. Though the film
lacks entertainment, the devotional
episodes have been well projected
on screen. The last half an hour of
Om Namo Venkatesaya is an asset
and is the highlight of the film. On
the whole, the second half of Om
Namo Venkatesaya looks apt and is
focussed completely on devotional
aspects.
Final Word:
Om Namo Venkatesaya is one of the
finest devotional entertainers in the
recent times. Nagarjuna excels in
his role and the devotional narration
along with the songs, performances
make Om Namo Venkatesaya a
decent one time watch.
Story :
Om Namo Venkatesaya is the
story of Ram (Nagarjuna) who
believes in eternal powers of
God. He joins the ashram of
Padmananda Swamy (Saikumar)
and gets attracted to Lord Ven-
kateswara. To seek the divinity
of Lord, he reaches Tirumala. It
is then he faces heat from many
unusual powers in Tirumala. The
rest of Om Namo Venkatesaya
is all about the problems that
Ram faces and how he becomes
Hatiram Baba. Watch Om Namo
Venkatesaya to know about the
story.

Indian cinema witnessed massive changes over the
past few years and many passionate filmmakers have
been finding ways to present different films on Indian
screen. Even the audience have been encouraging
fresh talent and innovative concepts. There have been
many such examples in the recent times and the latest
example is Ghazi.
This marks the first submarine
film in the history of Indian
cinema and it describes about
the unknown war between India
and Pakistan that took place
in 1971 across the coast of
Visakhapatnam.
Sankalp, a debutant impressed
the filmmakers with the script
and Rana Daggubati has been
brought on board after which
the budget of the film crossed
the limit. Top producer Prasad V
Potluri has been impressed with
the narration and he decided to
make the film in a grand manner.
Matinee Entertainments co-
produced Ghazi which has been
made on a massive budget of Rs
12 crores. Kay Kay Menon, Om
Puri, Atul Kulkarni and Tapsee
Pannu played the other crucial
roles.

Ghazi has been shot in three
months but it took six months
to complete the post-production
work. Ghazi had enough dose
of VFX effects throughout the
movie and the makers spent a
bomb for the visual effects of
the submarine. Ghazi released
on February 17th in Telugu,
Tamil and Hindi languages.
The movie received exceptional
response from the audience all
over.
Bollywood’s top filmmaker
Karan Johar acquired the
Bollywood rights of the film and
released in record number of
screens. The movie already
minted over Rs 40 crores in 10
days and it still running strong
all over. The makers have
been left delighted with the
stupendous response from the
audience. Ghazi will stand as
a master-piece in the history of
Indian cinema.

Exclusive Interview

The Macho Man
of Indian Cinema
Rana Daggubati
Baahubali actor Rana Daggubati, is back with
the release of his film "The Ghazi Attack", which
is based on the Submarine PNS Ghazi attack
which happened in 1971 at Visakhapatnam.
In an exclusive interview, Rana
Daggubati talked about his role
transformations, his struggle while
shooting for Baahubali 2 and The Ghazi
Attack at the same time and much more.
Daggubati is also quite excited for the
film Baahubali’s comeback and feels that
part two will be bigger and better.
On 'The Ghazi Attack' trailer response
from the audience
It feels very nice as we have tried
something new and unique that has not
been tried before. We have also tried to
tell about the kind of visuals that is
very unique. I am happy that people
have taken this content and have
watched it. It’s quite a satisfying
feeling.
What are the criteria when you pick
such strong roles?
For me it’s just a story that I want to
tell…I see if the story has something to
tell or if it’s the character that I haven’t
played before. It’s a combination of all
these to make me try to do a different
film every time.

Is it’s difficult to transform
from one role to another.
It's really difficult but that’s
my job to play different
roles at different times for
different films. That’s the
only thing that keeps us
going. It’s just like to wake
up with different people
each day and there are
certain research and things
to learn from everyone
and from every film. For
example, the film I did, “The
Ghazi Attack”, which is an
inspiring story on a true
incident that happened in
1971. You get to understand
the period of 1971, you get
to understand what India
had done, what the war of
terrain used to be. These
are the things that you
don’t learn otherwise. So
I think the cinema we are
into has given me grounded
experience that I ever had.
What made you say yes for
the film Ghazi?
The reason I took this film is
because it’s a very important
story to tell. It’s about the
incident that happened
nobody knew about. I
have heard the stories of
submarines. So when you
hear all these stories and
finally find a full-fledged story
for it, you want to be more
than happy to be the part
the film, making it a larger
experience.
On working with Kay Kay
Menon, late Om Puri and Atul
Kulkarni
This film is an action drama
and we obviously needed
some very fine actors to be a
part of this film. So I guess all
these people kind of elevated
this film far from what it was
on paper and they were very
instrumental in getting it better
and better
How was the journey from
shooting for Baahubali 2 to
The Ghazi Attack at the same
time?
It emotionally and physically
takes away… they are two
very different films, nothing is
same. It’s like when you want
to do too many different films,
you have to push yourself.
Jumping from one character
to other was a tougher part.
When you are doing a film
like Ghazi, you are a very
content person. You feel like
you are recreating the history
for the future generations to
see.
The success of films like
Dangal, PINK, and Neerja
have proved that audience
prefers content oriented
films? Is Indian Cinema
changing and so are the
choices of the audience over
Box Office films?
It’s ultimately Box Office
numbers that will decide
many things. It is important
for the cinema to last. It
won't last if the films will
make no money but ya,
time and again there has
always been necessary
to give the audience
something far newer from
what they have seen before.
I think it’s a great time in
the country; there are all
kinds of filmmakers. So the
combination of all these is
probably a great foot for the
progress.
What people should expect
from Baahubali 2 this time?
Big, stronger, far far better
than what people have seen
in the earlier part.
The reason I
took this film
is because it’s a
very important
story to tell.
It’s about
the incident
that happened
nobody knew
about. I have
heard the
stories of
submarines

earning only Rs 1.97 crore,
taking the total to Rs 20.22 on
its Day 4.

Boldest Actress
of Indian Cinema
Kangana Ranaut
Kangana Ranaut is an Indian film actress. She
has established a career in Bollywood and
is one of the highest-paid actresses in India.
Ranaut is particularly known in the media
for expressing her honest opinions in public
and is frequently credited as one of the most
fashionable Indian celebrities.

OVER STORY

Ranaut was
born on 23
March 1986
at Bhambla
(now
Surajpur), a
small town
in the Mandi
district of
Himachal
Pradesh,
into a Rajput
family.
She is the recipient of
several awards, including
three National Film Awards
and Filmfare Awards in four
categories.
Ranaut was born on 23
March 1986 at Bhambla (now
Surajpur), a small town in the
Mandi district of Himachal
Pradesh, into a Rajput family.
Her mother, Asha Ranaut,
is a school teacher, and her
father, Amardeep Ranaut,
is a businessman. She has
an elder sister, Rangoli,
who as of 2014 works as
her manager and a younger
brother, Akshat. Her great-
grandfather, Sarju Singh
Ranaut, was a Member of the
Legislative Assembly and her
grandfather was an officer
for the Indian Administrative
Service. She grew up in a
joint family at their ancestral
haveli (mansion) in Bhambla,
and described her childhood
as "simple and happy".
Born in Bhambla, a small
town in Himachal Pradesh,
Ranaut initially aspired to
become a doctor at the
insistence of her parents.
Determined to build her own
career path, she relocated to
Delhi at age sixteen, where
she briefly became a model.
After training under the
theatre director Arvind Gaur,
Ranaut made her feature
film debut in the 2006 thriller
Gangster, for which she was
awarded the Filmfare Award
for Best Female Debut. She
received praise for portraying
emotionally intense
characters in the dramas
Woh Lamhe (2006), Life in
a... Metro (2007) and Fashion
(2008). For the last of these,
she won the National Film
Award for Best Supporting
Actress and a Filmfare Award
in the same category.
Ranaut featured in the
commercially successful films
Raaz: The Mystery Continues
(2009) and Once Upon a
Time in Mumbaai (2010),
though she was criticized for
being typecast in neurotic
roles. A comic role opposite
R. Madhavan in the 2011
box office hit Tanu Weds
Manu was well-received,
though this was followed by
a series of brief, glamorous
roles in films that failed to
propel her career forward.
She then played a mutant
opposite Hrithik Roshan in
the science fiction film Krrish
3 (2013), one of the highest-
grossing Bollywood films,
and won the Filmfare and
National Film Award for Best
Actress for her performance
in the comedy-drama Queen
(2014). In 2015, Ranaut
portrayed a dual role in Tanu
Weds Manu Returns, the
most successful Bollywood
film featuring a female
protagonist, for which she
won a Filmfare Critics Award
and a second consecutive
National Film Award for Best
Actress.
Kangana Ranaut has been
signing meaningful and
bold roles in her career.
Her latest movie Rangoon
has been in news because
of her bold acts with actor
Shahid Kapoor and Saif Ali
Khan in the film. This Vishal
Bharadwaj’s directorial
released recently and is
running decent all over.

An Inspiration to
Indian Cinema
MONTHLEGEND OF
THE
Akshay Kumar
Rajiv Hari Om Bhatia (born 9 September 1967),
better known by his stage name Akshay Kumar,
is an Indian-born Canadian actor, producer
and martial artist who has appeared in over a
hundred Hindi films.
110

He lived and
grew up in
Delhi's Chandni
Chowk and
later he moved
to Mumbai
where he lived
in Koliwada,
a Punjabi
dominated
area.
He has been nominated for
Filmfare Awards several
times, winning it two times.
When he began his acting
career in the 1990s, he
primarily starred in action
films and was known for his
appearances in films of the
"Khiladi series" as well as
other action films such as
Waqt Hamara Hai (1993),
Mohra (1994), Elaan (1994),
Suhaag (1994), Sapoot
(1996), Jaanwar (1999).
Kumar was born in Amritsar,
India to Hari Om Bhatia and
Aruna Bhatia. His father
was a military officer. From
a young age, Kumar was
recognised as a performer,
particularly as a dancer. He
lived and grew up in Delhi's
Chandni Chowk and later
he moved to Mumbai where
he lived in Koliwada, a
Punjabi dominated area. He
received his school education
from Don Bosco School
and enrolled in Mumbai's
Guru Nanak Khalsa College
for higher education, but
dropped out after an year
and went to Bangkok to learn
martial arts. Kumar also has
a sister, Alka Bhatia. When
Kumar was a teenager,
his father asked him what
he aspired to be. Kumar
expressed his desire to
become an actor.
After having obtained a black
belt in Taekwondo while
in India, he studied martial
arts in Bangkok, Thailand,
where he learned Muay Thai
and worked as a chef and
waiter. Upon his return to
Mumbai, he commenced the
teaching of martial arts. One
of his students, an aspiring
photographer, recommended
Kumar into modelling
which ultimately led to a
modelling assignment. Kumar
effectively made more money
within the first two days of
shooting, in comparison to
his entire months salary, and
therefore chose a modelling
career path. He worked as
an assistant for photographer
Jayesh Sheth for 18 months
without payment to shoot
his first portfolio. He also
worked as a background
dancer in various films. One
morning, he missed his flight

Disappointed with himself,
he visited a film studio
along with his portfolio. That
evening, Kumar was signed
for a lead role by producer
Pramod Chakravarthy for the
movie Deedar.
Apart from acting, Kumar has
also worked as a stunt actor;
he has often performed
many dangerous stunts in
his films, which has earned
him the sobriquet "Indian
Jackie Chan". In 2008,
he hosted the show Fear
Factor – Khatron Ke Khiladi.
The next year, he founded
the Hari Om Entertainment
production company. In
2008, the University of
Windsor conferred an
Honorary Doctorate on
Kumar in recognition of
his contribution to Indian
cinema. The following year
he was awarded the Padma
Shri by the Government
of India. In 2011, The
Asian Awards honoured
Kumar for his outstanding
achievement in Cinema. In
2012, he founded another
production company called
Grazing Goat Pictures. In
2014, Kumar launched TV
realty show Dare 2 Dance.
He also owns the team
Khalsa Warriors in the World
Kabaddi League. In 2015,
Kumar was ranked 9th in
Forbes' first global list of
highest-paid actors in the
world.

Leela Bhansali and starred by Rani Mukerji and
Amitabh Bachchan. Black revolves around a Blind,
Deaf girl, and her relationship with her teacher who
himself later develops Alzheimer's disease.

Black: A Classic of Indian Cinema
The film draws inspiration from Helen Keller's
life and struggle.The film was screened at the
Casablanca Film Festival and the International
Film Festival of India. It won the Filmfare Award
for best film. Time Magazine (Europe) selected the
film as one of the 10 Best Movies of the Year 2005
from around the globe. The movie was positioned
at number five.
Indiatimes Movies ranked the movie amongst
the 25 Must See Bollywood Films. The film was
premiered in the Marché du Film section of the
2005 Cannes Film Festival. Amitabh Bachchan
received his second National Film Award for Best
118

Actor at the 53rd National Film
Awards, his fourth Filmfare Award
for Best Actor and his second
Filmfare Critics Award for Best
Actor for his performance and Rani
Mukerji won her second Filmfare
Award for Best Actress. A remake
of this film was produced in Turkey
in 2013 titled Benim Dünyam.
Sanjay Leela Bhansali first came up
with the idea for Black in 1995 while
filming Khamoshi: The Musical.
He was inspired by Helen Keller's
autobiography The Story of My
Life and visited the Helen Keller
Institute to do research. He also
read the autobiography of deaf-
mute pianist Geraldine Lawhorn
for ideas. Much of the film was
based on his observations between
students, teachers and parents at
the Institute. Bhansali originally
planned for the film to be a low-
budget film in Hindi and English
which would provide a change
from his prior film, the expensive
Devdas.
Black was originally scheduled
to be released on 10 December
2004, but Bhansali decided to
postpone its release. Black was
released on 4 February 2005
in 170 different towns in India,
a small number compared to
most large-budget Bollywood
films. Black was also screened
at several international film
festivals like the Casablanca
Film Festival. Black was met
by mostly positive reviews.
Amitabh Bachchan and Rani
Mukerji won the filmfare critic's
acting awards also, besides the
best actor and actress awards.
The performances of Amitabh
Bachchan, Rani Mukerji and
Ayesha Kapoor were especially
praised by critics. Richard Corliss
of Time magazine selected it as
one of the best films of 2005. It
was also listed at number one on
the Indiatimes' list of 25 Must See
Bollywood Movies.

curb frustration March 6 -9. Release what is
not worth keeping. Yes, the Sun will come
out from behind that dark cloud by the mid-
Summer. Use the New Moon on March 10 to
activate your strong intuitive skills, and plant
new seeds of creation. Your hard work in
providing security for others will pay off in the
long run.
LEO
Your relationships are up for healing
this month Leo. Your ability to take
charge is hampered by hidden
motives. Valuable insight comes
as a result of looking beneath the surface
of things. You are in a better position to
determine the truth. Remember, “All that
glitters is not gold.” Listen, truly listen, to the
heart of another, and your lion-hearted nature
will light the way for others to be more of who
they are.
TAURUS
You like to be comfortable, and this
dynamic trend of transformation
may unsettle your senses. Cultivate
present moment awareness, and you can
be a strong anchor in the winds of change.
There is a focus on career this month. New
projects may be in the visionary stages.
You are given the blueprint, the big picture,
for long term projects. Your talent to build,
stabilize and beautify will be called upon as
the year unfolds.
158

VIRGO
Your no nonsense approach to life is thrown for a loop. People come out of nowhere,
requesting your services, and diverting attention to their needs. Although this month
is a balancing act for you, there is much to learn and receive in the reflection of another’s life.
There is a tendency to over-commit, and work may stand in the way of social engagements.
Keeping all in perspective, this month takes you out of the doldrums into a larger range of
activity. It is possible to develop alliances of appreciation, respect and support.
CAPRICORN
Everyone deserves a break now and
then. The only problem, Capricorn, is
you may continue to run the treadmill.
If so, you can miss the opportunity for sweet
reflection that leads to a new view of your
life path. Avoid the temptation to be negative
during the first ten days of March. Know
there is a deep river of creativity within you.
Ideas flow like water, and nourish the seeds
of new projects.
PISCES
Happy Birthday Pisces! With Uranus
in your Sun Sign for the next seven
years, creative juices are flowing.
This is the month to recognize your
dreams and let them unfold in new directions.
Be on your toes, and open to positive surprises.
Universal guidance is very strong, and at your
fingertips. In order to receive, activate your
Divine gift of receptivity. This is the month to
illuminate ideals, hold them to your heart, and
don’t let present reality get you down.
LIBRA
You are running in different directions
this month trying to keep your world
in balance. If you only focus on
keeping other’s happy, you may miss the gifts
of personal growth. This year brings benefit
in new contacts and alliances. Your natural
social grace is enhanced in work and play.
Developments in the work arena are new and
exciting. It is important to know where you
really stand. Honesty begins with self.
SCORPIO
Your home brings great comfort
this month. Creative juices are
flowing. Children benefit from
your deep sensitivity and intuition. This
is the month to dream, play and explore
your capacity for intimacy. Holding onto
resentment does not get you where you want
to go. Stagnation gives way to movement and
relief. Important communications take place.
SAGITTARIUS
Your gypsy days are over, at least
until Spring Equinox. Problems
revealed November – January
are finally resolving. Reflexing back
into repetitive and habitual behavior
leads nowhere. The powerful trend of
transformation is re-making you from the
inside out. Truly, you are beginning to see
the light at the end of the tunnel. Take some
time to retreat into the inner sanctuary of
your spiritual home.
159
AQUARIUS
You are on a roll Aquarius. Despite
conservative trends, you are in the
right place at the right time. Trust
your vision for a humane future. Your global
perspective is enhanced by strong intuitive
energies. But, resist the temptation to save
others. Peace really does begin with you.
Genuinely love yourself, and you are free to
sow seeds of compassion in your world.
