02 December,2024 06:25 PM IST | Mumbai | mid-day online correspondentBollywood actor Shahid Kapoor, who once made headlines for his relationship with Kareena Kapoor Khan, recently opened up about his heartbreak which left him devastated. The ‘Haider’ star spoke candidly about the most vulnerable moment in his life that left him crying on a film set. Shahid also spoke about how men find it tough to be vulnerable but also asserted that when a person is an actor, the emotional trait is very attractive. When Shahid Kapoor cried on set due to a heartbreak In an interview with Faye D’Souza, Shahid Kapoor was asked if he cried alone in a room, to which he answered, “That only happened to me when I went through heartbreak. And, sometimes it happens when you are making movies. So, I have had that. It was really bad. My makeup guy was like, ‘I just finished your makeup! Can you just not?', ‘I can’t help it, I think I am destroying myself’. I have been through those but not for work.” He further stated, “A lot of men find it difficult to express their vulnerable side and I think because I am an actor, maybe I am comfortable because it is a part of what I do. I have to be able to get to that place which is vulnerable and expressive. When you are an actor, you also understand that vulnerability is extremely attractive. Aggression cannot attract people the way vulnerability does. It's only human to be vulnerable, so as a man, you should be okay with it.” Shahid Kapoor married Mira Rajput in 2015. They are parents to daughter Misha, who was born in 2016, and son Zain in 2018.

02 December,2024 02:39 PM IST | Mumbai | ANIBoman Irani is one of the most cherished actors in the film industry. Boman started his acting career at the age of 41 with the Shah Rukh Khan-starrer 2000 film 'Josh'. He has been able to make his name in the film industry with his compelling craft in less time. Besides acting, the actor ventured into direction and has also gained widespread recognition and acclaim for his directorial debut 'The Mehta Boys'. On the occasion of his 65th birthday, let's have a look at some of his roles that stood out: Dr. Jagdish Chandra Asthana in 'Munnabhai MBBS'Boman dons the hat of a doctor in this comedy-drama film to play the Dean of a medical college. He is a hardworking and dedicated professor who strives to provide good education and healthcare. He is often seen at crossroads with the titular character Munnabhai, who resorts to unconventional ways to cure patients, often with his enthusiasm and fun games. Boman's character goes through a change of heart by the end of the film. Temthon "Tammy" Irani in 'Happy New Year' Boman Irani played the role of a seizure-prone safecracker in ‘Happy New Year’. He is a quirky old Parsi guy who loves locks and has spent his whole life making or breaking them. He was unmarried in the film but had a flirty side to his character too. Tammy stood out for audiences because of his unusual fear of his old mother too. Lakhbir Singh aka Lucky Singh in 'Lage Raho Munna Bhai' Opposite to the first installment of this franchise film, Boman Irani plays an unscrupulous businessman who believes only in the language of greed and dishonesty. He manipulates things to suit his demands that would further benefit him. Boman Irani plays the role of this cunning man with conviction and the audience still remembers him as a memorable character. Viru Sahastrabudhhe aka Virus in '3 Idiots' Boman played the role of an Engineering professor and the Headmaster of the Imperial College of Engineering (ICE) in '3 Idiots'. Viru is an arrogant and ruthless disciplinarian who wants to impose his ideology of life on everyone regardless of what the other feels. He is a firm believer in traditional ways of education and does not tolerate rebellion against the conventional ways. Bhau Sahib in 'Bhootnath Returns' Boman plays a corrupt politician cum goon 'Bhau Sahib' in this comedy film who can go to any lengths to win the election and stay in power. He convinces the audience with his buttered promises and despised glances in the role of a politician. King in 'Dilwale' Boman plays a drug baron in this action-romance film who is both feared and made fun of. He plays an eccentric don in the film and the actor justifies the character with his approach and body language. Pruthvishbhai Patel in 'Jayesbhai Jordaar' An arrogant sexist patriarchial village sarpanch who is a firm opposer of women's rights and believes that women themselves are responsible for their woes. While listening to a girl's eve-teasing complaint, he bans the use of bathing soaps for women. Boman played this character with finesse, making the viewers hate him.

02 December,2024 12:28 PM IST | Mumbai | ANIIn Kicking Balls, Guneet Monga Kapoor showcases the courageous journey of young girls in Rajasthan, as they fight against child marriage, and abuse, to chase their athletic dreams. Vijayeta Kumar’s directorial venture—fittingly backed by an all-women’s crew—showcases the resilience of 300 girls, who turn to football as a tool for empowerment. Grim though the documentary’s narrative may seem, composer Alokananda Dasgupta shares that it is a celebration of their untameable spirit. In this interview, she shares why the music was at odds with the pain reflected in their stories. Edited excerpts from the interview: Did you have a word with Guneet on the idea behind the documentary’s music?I had the first conversation with Guneet during COVID, and I knew this was special. I spoke to Vijayeta extensively. When she described it, it did not seem like this would be just another film about the crisis. The tables turn and it becomes fun in the end. I’ve wanted to explore the format of documentaries and docu-fictions because I’ve grown up watching them. As for this film, I loved the narrative, and how the girls talk about their story. Guneet Monga As they share their stories, you can see their expression change. It’s different when they play and run about. I also love that the storytelling fits the game [of football]. We haven’t seen something so real in a long time. We didn’t want the music to imitate the sorrow [that was part of the theme]. There’s a famous folk song included. To add a twist to it, I [included] a North African style of strumming. The idea behind doing so was to ensure that we didn’t create the perception that this is only a regional [tale]. You must have had to walk the tightrope to create music that was upbeat but still aligned with the narrative, which is at odds with it. You’re right. It was basically playing with opposites. But, I found the characters upbeat. I found their way of speaking, their diction, and the way they share their stories refreshing. They almost do the job for you. It has a certain vibe. At the same time, the makers show the real picture—you see a girl cry as she shares how she was almost raped many times, and her husband was an abuser. When she says that there hasn’t been a day that she hasn’t cried, you can see that [she has faced the] harsh reality of life. When you see their faces, you can also see the contrast that I’ve attempted to musically create. They are gentle and young girls. But you can see that they have had to grow up very early in life. Then you see them singing on the bus, celebrating the little moment of joy that they have. That is the contrast I wanted to showcase with the music. Alokananda Dasgupta Of course, I could only exercise so much liberty because we know these girls live tough lives. They only have a few occasions to let their hair down. We used some ethnic instruments, such as the sarangi. Normally, I do not use the acoustic guitar. But, I felt there was something about the way it was being strummed that worked for the narrative. Cyli Vivek Khare sang the song. She has a very raw voice. We kept the integrity of the song alive with her vocals. Tanmay Pawar was the guitarist who gave me ideas on the different arrangements that we used. The process of working on the music was rather beautiful and stress-free. What, according to you, are the primary differences that come into play when composing for a documentary and a film? I don’t normally recite technical examples, but there is a technical difficulty relating to the voice-over. Here there was no voice-over, but [several aspects relating to] the dialogue, narrative, and speech had to be attended to. It is a theatrical format—the protagonists are facing the camera and telling a story. The music has to be cleverly used. You need them to be heard without the bias of music. And in some places the film really begs for music. You also use silence intelligently. Could you tell us about your upcoming work?There is a horror series called Khauf, and a Yashraj series. There’s also a Bengali project, Puratawn, starring Sharmila Tagore. It is my first Bengali film since Baba’s [filmmaker Buddhadeb Dasgupta] passing. My last Bengali films were Urojahaj and Tope, directed by Baba. Working on this film was nostalgic. I was missing my parents because such moments take you back into a world that you didn’t know still existed. There is a song that has been sung by Shreya Ghoshal and penned by my sister, lyricist Rajeshwari Dasgupta.
