Jackky Bhagnani returns to acting after six years with Independence Day anthem 'Tere Rang Mein': "I wanted the street credibility and respect of Gen Z"

It’s been quite some time since I faced the camera. So, I thought the best way to come back is with the right cause,” Bhagnani said.

Julia Roberts presented the Trophée Chopard 2022 to rising film stars

Julia Roberts presented the Trophée Chopard 2022 to rising film stars. As part of the 75th Cannes Film Festival, a gala dinner was held at which the famous friend of the House of Chopard presented actors Sheila Atim and Jack Lowden with the coveted Trophée Chopard 2022 statuettes. The history of Trophée Chopard began over 20 years ago. In 2001, at the initiative of Caroline Scheufele, co-president and artistic director of Chopard, at a special ceremony included in the official program of the Cannes Film Festival, the prize was awarded for the first time to an aspiring talented actress and actor. The Trophée Chopard award symbolizes the boundless support given to the "seventh art" by the jewelry company, a traditional partner of the Cannes Film Festival for 25 years. This year's winners of the prizes, presented by the House of Chopard's famous friend Julia Roberts, are Sheila Atim and Jack Lowden. Sheila Atim is a Ugandan-British actress, composer, and playwright. Jack Lowden is a Scottish theater, film, and television actor; you may know him from his role as Nikolai Rostov in the BBC mini-series War and Peace. The first to congratulate them was Pierre Lescure (festival president), Thierry Fremaux (general director of the festival), and Caroline and Karl-Friedrich Scheufele (co-presidents of Chopard). Among the other guests of the evening were Lashana Lynch, Rebecca Hall, William Abadi, Rossi De Palma, and other actors, directors, and members of the Cannes 2022 jury. In a previous post, Actress, philanthropist, and face of the new Chopard Happy Diamonds campaign dedicated to the joys of life, Julia Roberts is sincerely grateful for the opportunity to share her thoughts and beliefs with others: "After all, not all women can afford it." We are glad that this time, what she thinks about and what she values, she told us.

The Miracle Club review – Maggie Smith can’t save this rocky road trip to Lourdes

Laura Linney is upstaged by older co-stars Smith and Kathy Bates in this sentimental tale about a group of Dublin women who go on a spiritual journey together Who’s up for a golden-hued heartwarmer set in 60s Ireland starring Kathy Bates and Maggie Smith about women with secret fears and dreams going on a church trip to Lourdes and finally finding the real miracle is their new compassion for each other? The answer to this question could well have been … me. I have a liking for a gentle tale and there is nothing necessarily wrong with, just occasionally, showing Ireland and the church of this period with something other than outrage and horror. But The Miracle Club does not at any time, to use a discredited metaphor, throw away its crutches and walk. And it’s painful to note that this is largely because of the way film can’t convincingly use that estimable actor Laura Linney in a central role. She is upstaged by the older, fruitier performances and doesn’t hold her own with a more seri...

Omen (Augure) review – Baloji offers secrets and sorcery in Congolese homecoming

Musician and film-maker’s story about a Belgian-Congolese man who takes his white wife to DRC to meet the family is complex, risky and bold Congolese-born rapper, musician and film-maker Baloji (né Serge Baloji Tshiani) was a prizewinner at Cannes last year with this feature directing debut: a dynamic, teemingly populated, multistranded and tonally elusive picture which I initially thought would benefit from comparisons with Jordan Peele’s horror classic Get Out. In fact, it’s more complicated than that. Koffi (Marc Zinga) is a Congolese man living in Belgium and married to a white woman, Alice (Lucie Debay). They are about to have twins and Koffi feels that he cannot put it off any further: whatever his family will think, the couple must journey back to the Democratic Republic of the Congo to let them see Alice and let them get used to the idea. It particularly means propitiating his fiercely conservative mother Mujila (Yves-Marina Gnahoua). He takes care to shave off his westernis...
