EXCLUSIVE: After OMG Oh My God and 102 Not Out, Umesh Shukla's acclaimed play Madhuri vs Dixit to be made into a film

-
Umesh Shukla has been a popular name among Gujarati audiences for several years and since 2012, he has also enjoyed nationwide popularity. That was the year when OMG Oh My God, an adaptation of his cult Gujarati play Kanji Viruddh Kanji, was made as a Bollywood film. Starring Paresh Rawal and Akshay Kumar, the devotional courtroom drama emerged as a sleeper super-hit. Six years later, he made 102 Not Out (2018), an adaptation of the Gujarati play of the same name. The film adaptation, starring Amitabh Bachchan and Rishi Kapoor, was also a success. And now, Umesh Shukla is all set to adapt yet another of his acclaimed plays for the big screen – Madhuri vs Dixit. Madhuri vs Dixit is a Hindi play and its premiere took place on April 26 in Mumbai. Interestingly, it was earlier staged in Gujarati, with the title Madhuri Dixit. It stars Riddhi Shukla and Jaideep Shah in leading roles. Interestingly, the former is also the wife of Umesh Shukla.

Kim Kardashian was convicted for imitating chewing a hamburger in a Beyond Meat commercial

-
The latest ad featuring Kim Kardashian has already been dubbed an imitation of art. This week, the cooperation between the product brand Beyond Meat and the TV star was met by users with only one negative. The TV presenter and businesswoman recently became the subject of a video promoting a plant-based alternative meat company. Kim Kardashian played the role of "chief taste consultant. The star then showed how she tastes and chews on a simulated Hamburger, tacos, sausage, chicken nuggets, and even meatballs. However, the ubiquitous commentators on social media did not believe that she actually ate the cooked meals. Many noted how the video constantly cuts out before Kardashian can be seen biting into her food. Upon closer inspection, others noted that not a single piece was visible in the video! And the cheeseburger seems to "like" Kim Kardashian so much that she throws her head back in approval while she "chews." Beyond Meat responded to questions about the ad and whether Kim Kardashian actually ate the food shown in the ad. "When we said that the main advantage of Kim is her taste, we meant it. Of course, she eats Beyond burgers both in real life and onset. This is just one of the reasons why we love the star and named her our top taste consultant. We love that more people are getting to know us, our products, and our mission," their official statement says. Whether or not Kim Kardashian really enjoyed her food, social media users are giving us even more food for thought. Perhaps the detailed conduct was part of the contract, and in this simple way, the company was able to draw even more attention to its safe grocery basket.

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...
