"I still maintain that he DID NOT commit suicide" - The INSIDE story on the last 24 hours of Guru Dutt's life; a brother's emotional recollection

-
The 100th birth anniversary of one of the greatest film personalities ever, Guru Dutt, is celebrated on July 9. He died at the age of just 38 but the contribution he made to cinema has been unforgettable. No wonder that 60 years after his passing, he continues to be talked about and remembered. Some believe that he committed suicide while some don’t believe this theory at all. Devi Dutt, brother of Guru Dutt, spoke at length with Filmfare 9 years ago about why he was sure that his brother didn’t end his own life. In the April 2016 issue, a detailed interview of Devi Dutt was published in which he talked about Guru Dutt’s beginnings, his relationship with Geeta Dutt and a lot more. At one point, he explained what happened on October 9, 1964, a day before Guru Dutt was found dead. Devi Dutt said, “After Sahib Bibi Aur Ghulam (1962), Guru Dutt and Bhabhi (Geeta Dutt) had patched up. It was decided that the entire family would stay together at 48 Pali Hill once it was redeveloped. On Oct...

Kaun Banega Crorepati 16: Amitabh Bachchan reveals how his father stopped him from visiting race course : “My father wrote me a letter…”

-

In the latest episode of Kaun Banega Crorepati 16, Anshuman Mathur and Paritosh Gupta faced off in the Challenger's round, where Paritosh emerged victorious and claimed the hot seat.

He works as a consultant for a cybersecurity company and resides in a chawl measuring less than 100 square feet. He shared, “I lived there with my parents, and now I live there with my wife.”

“My dream is to buy a home, and I hope to achieve that with the prize money,” he said.

The game begins with Rs 20,000 question: In Mumbai, which of these names refers to both a railway station and a racecourse? A. Goregaon, B. Parel, C. Mahalakshmi, D. Dadar.

He correctly answers option C.

Big B talks about the racecourse and said that often people go there and get addicted.

Then he shares an interesting story and said, “I am saying all this because there was a time, when I used to work in Kolkata, there is also a race course. I used to earn Rs 300-400 but it was no enough for a living. I used to visit that race course in hope of earning from extra money. I would also share everything with my parents and I told them about my visit to the race course. They didn't say anything but I received a letter from my father and he wrote, 'dhan kop rapt karne ke liye jab tak khoon paseena na nikle usko prapt nahi karna chahiye'. It was his indication that I should never visit that place and I obeyed.”

He uses his first lifeline, the audience poll, for the ₹40,000 question and answers it correctly.

Big B then asks him about his dream home. He responds, “It takes at least ₹1 crore to buy a 1BHK, but I hope to win enough for the down payment.”

He uses the Video Call a Friend lifeline for the ₹3,20,000 question and successfully answers it. However, when he uses the same lifeline for the ₹6,40,000 question, he gives an incorrect answer.

The Portable Door review – Harry Potter-ish YA fantasy carried by hardworking cast

-
Jeffrey Walker’s adaptation of the young-adult fantasy novel retains its edge thanks to its performances, but gets stuck on the whole door thing Adapted from Tom Holt’s 2003 young-adult fantasy novel, this is a passable attempt at kickstarting a new Harry Potter-style franchise set in a fusty-quirky institution, dosed up with extra Gilliamesque grotesquery. Co-produced by the Jim Henson Company, the production design is poky and intense, and the cast – with Christoph Waltz and Sam Neill larking it up – give it their all. But amid all this clutter, it sometimes has trouble moving its story forward. The Portable Door has a nice conceit: the venerable London corporation of JW Wells & Co is responsible for engineering all the daily incidents of coincidence and serendipity that happen in urban life. Not that wet-behind-the-ears intern Paul Carpenter (Patrick Gibson), desperate for any gig, knows the company’s raison d’etre when he signs up. He appears to have no discernible talents wh...
