‘It needs to be loud’: Jozef Van Wissem’s one-man mission to make the lute rock again

-
The Dutch ex-punk and Jim Jarmusch bandmate talks about his passion to free up a hidebound repertoire and make its strings ‘a real pop instrument’ Nobody can accuse Jozef Van Wissem of doing things by halves. The musician, very likely the world’s most notorious contemporary lutenist, owns a sonic arsenal of eight of the string instruments: some bespoke, and all boasting remarkable features. With them he has created a huge body of work, nearly 50 titles to date. Another album, This Is My Blood is released this May. Each Easter, Van Wissem settles down to compose a new record. He finds the peace of Warsaw, where everyone has “gone away for the holidays”, more amenable for work than “noisy” Rotterdam, where he also has a flat.

Shah Rukh Khan to pair up for the first time with daughter Suhana Khan for a Red Chillies film

-

While Aryan Khan prefers to stay behind the camera, daughter of megastar Shah Rukh Khan is all set to make her acting debut. Suhana Khan will be seen as Veronica in the upcoming Zoya Akhtar directorial The Archies. While the film will release on OTT, we hear that the newbie has bagged her second film, a theatrical release with none other than her father and the Pathaan of Bollywoood, Shah Rukh Khan. The untitled venture, reportedly, will be produced under his banner Red Chillies Entertainment and directed by Siddharth Anand.

In a report by Pinkvilla, a source has confirmed the details saying, “Shah Rukh Khan and Siddharth Anand have worked together in the capacity of actor and director in Pathaan and now the duo is now all set to work in multiple capacities in this yet-untitled film. The yet-untitled film will be a co-production of Red Chillies Entertainment and Marflix Pictures. The pre-production work has already begun, and all the stakeholders are excited to take the film on floors.” These reports suggest that Shah Rukh Khan will start work on it by the end of this year after he wraps up work on his film Dunki.

The source continued, “Shah Rukh Khan and Siddharth Anand are ready to extend their bond further by venturing into a co-production. The yet untitled film is touted to be the first of the many collaborations in the offing for SRK and Siddharth Anand in the capacity of producer.” The report also mentioned that Shah Rukh Khan and Suhana Khan are coming together because of the script’s demand. “It’s a subject that organically calls for this casting and all the details have been kept under wraps for now. Both Shah Rukh and Suhana are excited to collaborate in a professional capacity,” the source added.

Readers would be aware that Shah Rukh Khan is currently gearing up for the release of his first collaboration with South filmmaker Atlee, in Jawan, which also marks the Bollywood debut of Nayanthara and Vijay Sethupathi. He also has Dunki, co-starring Taapsee Pannu in the pipeline for release.

On the other hand, along with Suhana Khan, The Archies also marks the debut of Amitabh Bachchan’s grandson and Shweta Bachchan’s son Agastya Nanda as well as Sridevi and Boney Kapoor’s younger daughter Khushi Kapoor. The film is slated for release on Netflix in November 2023.

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...
