From Melania to Kid Rock’s halftime show: why is Maga art so dreadful?

-
As the right stokes culture wars, their alternatives to ‘woke’ Hollywood prove to be shoddily made and uninspired It’s not fair, what they did to rightwing folks on Super Bowl Sunday. Regular viewers could either take in an elaborate and joyful halftime performance from Puerto Rican recording artist Bad Bunny , one of the most popular music stars in the world, or, if they weren’t interested in football or in Bad Bunny ’s music, they could quietly find something else to watch or listen to. There are a lot of options out there. Those who wanted to prove their Maga bona fides or loyalties, however, may have felt obligated to watch a parade of similar-sounding country singers lead into a performance from a shorts-wearing Kid Rock , jumping around and seemingly lip-syncing to a novelty hit from 1999. For rightwingers who couldn’t stomach the Spanish lyrics to Bad Bunny songs, they could take comfort in the clear English of the man also known as Robert Ritchie: “Bawitdaba, da-bang, da-ban...

-

Welcome (2007) is one of the funniest films of Bollywood and has a tremendous recall value. Though the sequel, Welcome Back (2015), was not as memorable, there’s a lot of excitement for Welcome 3. Recently, Arshad Warsi spilled the beans and confessed that apart from him, Akshay Kumar, Sanjay Dutt and Paresh Rawal are also a part of the third part of the franchise. A few days later, reports emerged that Sanjay Dutt and Arshad Warsi have replaced Anil Kapoor and Nana Patekar in Welcome 3.

Bollywood Hungama now brings another exciting and unexpected update from this much-awaited comic caper. A source told us, “Daler Mehndi and Mika Singh have also bagged Welcome 3. They’ll be seen as actors in this film. It’s an interesting addition to the multi-starrer and their roles are expected to be very funny and crucial to the plot. Both Daler and Mika were taken aback when they were offered the film. However, they realized that theirs is a fun role. Hence, both the talented brothers decided to sign on the dotted line.”

Daler Mehndi is a legendary singer and songwriter who popularized Bhangra worldwide with his Indipop songs. He has also song popular film songs like 'Na Na Na Na Na Re' from Mrityudaata (1997), the title song of Rang De Basanti (2006), 'Halla Bol' from Dhan Dhana Dhan Goal (2007), 'Bhootni Ke' from Singh Is Kinng (2008), 'Zor Ka Jhatka' from Action Replayy (2010), 'Vande Mataram' from ABCD – Any Body Can Dance – 2 (2015), 'Jiyo Re Baahubali' from Baahubali 2 – The Conclusion (2017), 'Jagga Jiteya' from Uri – The Surgical Strike (2019), etc.

Mika Singh, meanwhile, also got famous through pop songs and has song hit tracks like 'Dil Mein Baji Guitar' from Apna Sapna Money Money (2006), 'Mauja Hi Mauja' from Jab We Met (2007), 'Ganpat' from Shootout At Lokhandwala (2007), 'Dhanno' from Housefull (2010), 'Subah Hone Na De' from Desi Boyz (2011), 'Dhinka Chika' from Ready (2011), 'Gandi Baat' from R...Rajkumar (2013), 'Jumme Ki Raat' from Kick (2014), '440 Volt' from Sultan (2016), 'Aankh Maarey' from Simmba (2018), 'Milegi Milegi' from Stree (2018) to name a few.

Welcome 3, interestingly, also marks the acting debut of Daler Mehndi. Mika Singh, however, has acted in films before like Mitti (2010), Loot (2011) and Balwinder Singh Famous Ho Gaya (2014).

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...
