Akshay 'Khiladi' Kumar Making Soufflé With His Son Is Giving Us Performance Anxiety

He is a star, adored by millions of fans; he is Bollywood’s original khiladi; he is fit as a fiddle even at 50; and yet he takes out time to cook at home. Not just cook an ordinary meal, but make white chocolate mousse for his dinner guests. Akshay Kumar, you are setting the bar too high for us ordinary mortals. 

Twinkle Khanna shared a picture of her husband Akshay Kumar and son Aarav, making dessert for their guests.

Akshay’s cooking skills are no surprise; the actor worked as a chef in Bangkok where he had gone for martial arts training. A man of many talents, he makes sure his children imbibe them too. He is known to have trained son Aarav with a strict fitness routine. His son has a black belt in Kudo, a Japanese martial art. 

Every day is a #FathersDay if you have a son like that 🙂 #MakingMemories ‬#blessed

A post shared by Akshay Kumar (@akshaykumar) on Jun 18, 2017 at 10:44am PDT

One of the biggest Bollywood stars in the country right now, Akshay has time and again spoken up for what’s right. With the release of his latest film ‘Toilet: Ek Prem Katha’, Akshay bats for the need of toilets in villages. 

Now you could be the biggest star of the country but at the end of the day, you still have to cook for the missus! Perfect husband, perfect father, perfect khiladi.

Okay gotta go; have to start learning how to boil water.

Is it good to have many choices? Are you sure? Really!

 Economy

Do shoppers buy more if you offer them dozens off choices or would a few options suffice? When presented with a choice off six jams versus a choice off 24 jams, which would result in more sales?

For many people, logic dictates that having multiple products is an advantage. I am not trying to argue for or against choices but to discover the psychological reasons behind the numbers. Would consumers buy more product, more often, when they are presented with fewer choices?

Amitabh Bachchan Gives Us A Sneak-Peek Into Kaun Banega Crorepati 9 And We Are Loving It

 Celebrities
Aug 132017
 

The Legend is finally back and fans just can’t keep calm. After all, the most popular reality show is making a comeback on Indian television with our favourite superstar Amitabh Bachchan after a prolonged gap of three years.

The show is all set to air in September on Sony due to which another popular show is going off. People are very excited for the show and we just can’t wait to see Big B saying, “Computer Mahashay…… Option A/B/C/D pe tala lagaya jaaye!” While many can’t wait to hear the iconic dialogue when he picks up the phone and says, “Hello, Main Amitabh Bachchan bol raha hoon kaun banega Crorepati se.”

Yes, that how crazy people are for KBC. The 74-year-old actor has already begun shooting for the show and recently shared few pictures from the sets. He wrote, “Back from work .. its late .. so, more tomorrow .. KBC engaging well ..”

T 2514 – Back from work .. its late .. so, more tomorrow .. KBC engaging well ..🌹🌷🌺 pic.twitter.com/o4yeSQRgyG

— Amitabh Bachchan (@SrBachchan) August 12, 2017

Well, the overall format is going to be the same but the makers are going to add few things as per the advancement of the technology. For example, this time the ‘phone a friend’ lifeline will be twisted a bit and contestants will be video calling their mates. All those who wish to see Amitabh Bachchan, this could be your chance.

T 2510 – Just back from work ! and a day filled with reliving 17 years of KBC and my term with it .. 17 years !! goodness that is a lifetime pic.twitter.com/E5qlqSqVYB

— Amitabh Bachchan (@SrBachchan) August 8, 2017

There will also be another lifeline where the contestant can get a friend along with them in the show and they will be able to help him/her once whenever needed.

It is believed that this season will be more interesting in terms of time and questions. The show will air for six weeks and will have around 30 episodes.

T 2509 – KBC on !! 2 back to back rehearsals  .. and then to another studio for पà¥?रारà¥?थना की शà¥?दà¥?धता ! just back ।।  and now Ef की शà¥?दà¥?धता pic.twitter.com/5cd8XR7sOq

— Amitabh Bachchan (@SrBachchan) August 7, 2017

Speaking to Indian Express, a source revealed, “After managing to cross the one crore mark, the contestant will be given an option to try and win seven crores with a jackpot question. If they choose to go ahead, they would be stripped of their lifelines, and it would be mandatory for them to answer the question. It would be a risky move, for if they give a wrong answer, their prize money would drop down to a certain level.”

Well, well, this indeed sounds interesting. What would you do if you make win 1 crore, go home with that price amount or try your luck for seven? 

 

Music Maestro A.R. Rahman Will Soon Compose Music For Shekhar Kapur's Biopic On Bruce Lee

 Celebrities
Aug 132017
 

Shekhar Kapur, the man who has given us classics like ‘Bandit Queen’, ‘Mr. India’ and ‘Masoom’, is all set to floor us with his upcoming project on Bruce Lee. The celebrated Director and Producer, Kapur is making an “authorized biopic” on the life Bruce Lee, the legendary martial artist and actor.

If the names Kapur and Bruce Lee do not excite you, wait till you hear about the crew’s new member. Oscar-winning composer aka the music maestro aka who is also known as the Mozart of Madras, A.R. Rahman is going to compose the music for this film. “A.R. Rahman is also doing the music for Bruce Lee,” Kapur said in an interview. The film titled ‘Little Dragon’ is set in the backdrop of 1950s Hong Kong. It is a contemporary adaptation that will take us through the social and political forces, which turned Bruce Lee into the most famous martial artist and star.

When two talent houses come under one roof, only sky is the limit and as we have our bar of expectations set really high, we can’t really wait for other interesting developments to be thrown at us. While Kapur will soon start working with Rahman, his daughter Kaveri has already struck a chord and is all set to do a single with Rahman. Kapur said, “Kaveri and I are going to go to Chennai. She is doing a song with A.R. Rahman.”

We wonder if some people will still question his music, especially those who left the London concert midway because Rahman played too many Tamil songs.

Professional Press Release Writer in Phoenix, Arizona, USA

 General

If you know and understand that writing press releases are great for your business and just need someone in Phoenix, Arizona to write a press release it for you, then go straight to the contact form, fill it out or call and let’s get the ball rolling. If you are simply exploring the benefits of press releases, then read on.

Phoenix, Arizona

Professional Press Release Writer in Phoenix, Arizona, USA

Savvy professional marketers have always known the impact of press releases and have been using them to the advantage of their employers and clients. We have been using them in our business for over 20 years now. Before the internet was available as a commercial medium, we would focus on the general news media as well as trade publications. Once we figured it out, we started using it so effectively that we were getting more press coverage than competitors who were 20 times larger than us. That meant we were getting promotional exposure worth tens of thousands of dollars – for FREE. Press Releases have been good for our business and they can be good for your business too.

Don’t you wish you could get the coverage that big business gets? Whether you live in Phoenix, Arizona or elsewhere in the world, you can benefit from sending out press releases.

When the internet got commercialized, we adapted our press releases accordingly. We used to have one press release format, now we have two press release formats. We were getting traffic from the print media then. Now we target both print, online media, search engines and yes we target the user directly – all through press releases. That does not mean we only use press releases – no – that means press releases are an integral part of our marketing campaigns.

After the economic meltdown of 2008, a lot of people became unemployed. Many could not find jobs so they became self employed and naturally took to the internet as a means of soliciting business. The majority of these hardworking self employed people are not professional marketers and end up gravitating towards whatever the latest buzz is. They spend a lot of money buying expensive courses and that is all fine and dandy but they end up missing on some great fundamental tools that have worked in the past and continue to work today in the world of the internet and new media.

Just setting up a website does you no good. You have to drive traffic to it. Traffic does not just show up by itself. You have to drive it to your website. How do you do it? There are a whole range of things you can do but one of the best methods is to send out a press release.

Phoenix, Arizona

Professional Press Release Writer in Phoenix, Arizona, USA

Many people think sending out press releases must be a complex job costing them $1,000s of dollars. That cannot be farther from the truth. It does not cost anything.

A conventional press release reaches the end user / reader via the editor who acts as a gatekeeper and filters which press releases are worthy of publishing and which are not. If you use the right press release format, write the way they want it, you have a very good chance of getting published as a news story. A press release getting published as a news story has far more weight than an advertisement. That is why some Ads try to mimic a news story and mention in small print ‘paid advertisement’. It’s worth it and they know it.

A reasonably internet savvy person creates his own news streams by subscribing to various feeds and getting them on his news reader. He can also set alerts that notify him when news are available in his area of interest. He decides what to read and when to read and does not want any editor to decide that for him. Your job is to present him information via feeds and reach him directly.

Search Engines have opened up a whole new world. What is the search engine trying to do? It is trying to please the user so he will keep coming back to it whenever he has something on his mind. The more often the user visits, the more Ads the search engine can serve him and the more money it makes.

Don’t you feel like you are being used no matter what the technology. Yep. That’s how it is. However; this time you are on the other side. You are inviting the search engine to use you so you can use it to reach the end user. Ironic? Maybe. The search engine is trying to crawl fresh content so it can please it’s user. You feed it fresh content via Press Release sites. Why not feed it directly? You do – by letting the search engine index our pages – but the search engine views a Press Release Distribution site as a more likely source for fresh content and crawls it several times a day. Besides, Google gives a Press Release Distribution site more weightage or a higher page rank. That means a page originating from a PR site will carry greater weight. Quite often you will see your press release via a PR site show up high on searches with your own page nowhere in site.

A link or URL originating from a PR site carries greater weight. If your press release got published in 20 PR sites, those are 20 high ranking links pointing to your website. That is invaluable as the more links from high ranking sites pointing to your site raises the page rank of your site. When your site’s page rank goes up, you start showing up higher on relevant searches.

Let’s recap. Whether you live in the Phoenix, Arizona area or anywhere else in the world, the benefits of Press Releases are universal. By sending out press releases, you get traffic from:

  • Press Releases that show up in Google Alerts and RSS feeds directly on the readers desktop.
  • Press Releases that get printed as news stories in conventional newspapers, journals and trade publications.
  • Press Releases that show up in searches.
  • Your own site showing up higher in searches.

Convinced?

Dulquer Salmaan, Irrfan Khan And Mithila Palkar To Do A Bollywood Film Together And We Can't Wait

 Celebrities
Aug 132017
 

To make a great film all you need is a great story and cast. And despite having a great script if you pick up a wrong cast and vice versa, your film is bound to tank at the box office. 

2017 hasn’t been a great year for Bollywood with so many films failing despite big star cast. But looks like someone has just announced the cast of the year and we totally love the idea of seeing them sharing screen space together. 

Well, you ain’t really a millennial if you don’t know who Mithila Palkar is. She is one of the most influential and favourite internet beings. From presenting the traditional Marathi folk song with cup beats to entertaining us in web series like Little Things and Girl In The City, she is one hell of an entertainer. And finally, she is all set to rock the silver-screen as well. We ain’t kidding, she has signed a film and we are too excited. 

Thank you for this amazing feature @rollingstonein ! 👗 @pepejeansindia 📸 @juietakesphotos

A post shared by Mithila Palkar (@mipalkarofficial) on May 16, 2017 at 10:51pm PDT

She also did a Marathi film opposite Amey Wagh, Muramba and now she will be seen with none other than Irrfan Khan. Isn’t that great? Well, that’s not it, making his debut in the same film will be Malayalam super star Dulquer Salmaan. 

Thank you Behindwoods for my Best Actor Critics award ! Feels epic to win a Gold Medal ! Was a lovely event and I had a blast. Always great catching up with friends from both Malayalam and Tamil industries. A big thanks to my buddy @osmanabdulrazak for my perfectly tailored suit and of course @kalyanidesai for styling me ! #behindwoods #awards #suited #walkingtheramp #feltspiffy #smance #worepinkforprincess #babyboo #suddenloveforpink #daddycool

A post shared by Dulquer Salmaan (@dqsalmaan) on Jun 13, 2017 at 12:28am PDT

Now doesn’t that really sound like a great cast and we just wonder what the script might be. After all these three together, the film already shouts ‘hit-hit-hit’. We already have very high hopes from the movie.

The film will also mark the directorial debut for Akarsh Khurana and will be produced by Ronnie Screwala.

Mithila also shared a post on Instagram and wrote, “Living the Bollywood Dream alongside these supremely talented superstars.”

Big props to those who created this post. Thank you! Living the Bollywood Dream alongside these supremely talented superstars @dqsalmaan @irrfan ! Big hug and pappi to @akvarious ………….. DULQUER SALMAAN TO MAKE HIS BOLLYWOOD DEBUT :)) #DulQuer will debut alongside Irrfan Khan and Mithila Palkar in Ronnie Screwvala’s yet-untitled production. The film marks the directorial debut of #AkarshKhurana , who has co-written the script with Hussain Dalal, the dialogue writer for Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani and 2 States #Bollywood #DulQuer #mipalkarofficial #irffankhan #dulquer #dulquersalmaan

A post shared by Mithila Palkar (@mipalkarofficial) on Aug 11, 2017 at 1:56am PDT

When asked about the casting Akarsh Khurana told TOI, “I have been following Dulquer for a while after Mani Ratnam’s O Kadhal Kanmani. And I really loved his movie, Charlie. He has showcased a fantabulous performance in it. Then I watched his movies, Bangalore days, Kammattipaadam and so on…He is the perfect cast for the movie.” 

And here’s what he has to say about the characters, “The characters are from different walks of life who come together at one juncture of their lives.”

Talking about shooting for the song, Sunny Leone says, “I have been working on it with Omung (Kumar) sir and Ganesh sir. Rehearsals have already started. Ganesh sir who is a hard taskmaster has given me some really complicated steps. I’m trying my best to master them. The look, it’s very different from anything you’ve seen before. It’s a peppy track which youngsters will enjoy. I can see a lot of them copying the moves.”

Sunny who has not yet interacted with Sanjay Dutt says that she has been a fan of the actor for the longest time and is looking forward to shoot with him.
