-
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.

Koffee With Karan 7: Did Ananya Panday just confirm Kiara Advani - Sidharth Malhotra’s relationship?

-

Considering that Ananya Panday met up with her mentor Karan Johar during her recent stint on Koffee With Karan 7, there were many skeletons tumbling out of the closet. It seems that the filmmaker knew a lot about his ‘student of the year’ and even sort of quipped some interesting anecdotes about her life. While the Liger actress smartly dodged questions about her own life, we can’t say the same about her candidness regarding other people’s love lives, especially about the much talked about couple Sidharth Malhotra and Kiara Advani.

Koffee With Karan 7: Did Ananya Panday just confirm Kiara Advani - Sidharth Malhotra’s relationship?

The Rapid Fire round may have started with the politically correct Ananya Panday giving answers but as it proceeded, the momentum definitely picked up and during the last few sections, we got to see the actress being her candid self while responding. The last segment of her Rapid Fire round involved her revealing the relationship status of the given celebrities. It started off with Vijay Deverakonda and Ananya’s response was, “Feels like he is in a rush to meet Mika Singh”, making a reference to the Swayamvar that the musician had recently participated in. The actress made the comment after seeing the popularity of her Liger co-star on the show.

Followed by that, she was asked about Tiger Shroff to which the actress wittily answered with a hint towards Disha Patani adding, ”He knows his Disha. His directions are quite clear.” When asked about Janhvi Kapoor, the Gehraiyaan actress maintained, “she is a single pringle.” Finally when he questioned about Kiara Advani, Ananya Panday referred to the song she featured with Sidharth Malhotra saying, “Her raatans are very lambiyan” When Karan prodded further by asking who is her 'Ranjha', Ananya just hissed. But Karan completed her sentence adding, ‘Wake Up Sid’, to which Ananya nodded in agreement.

On the other hand, speaking about her own love life, Ananya Panday maintained extreme secrecy. While she neither confirmed nor denied her past relationship with Khaali Peeli star Ishaan Khatter, when asked about Aditya Roy Kapur, she clearly maintained the ‘cliched’ neutral stand of ‘we are just good friends’.

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...
