Exclusive | Shashwat Sachdev dedicates National Award to parents and guru: This belongs to them as much as it to me

The 72nd National Film Awards were announced on Saturday evening, and brought in a lot of surprises as well as deserved recognitions. Composer Shashwat Sachdev won the National Award for Best Music Direction for Article 370. Calling it a moment of gratitude more than personal triumph, Shashwat tells us this achievement belongs equally to the people who believed in him long before the recognition came. Shashwat Sachdev “I would dedicate this award to my parents and my guru, Ustad Ramzan Khan Sahab, without a second thought. Long before there was any recognition, they believed in the life I wanted to build through music. They made sacrifices, many of which I probably understood only much later, so that I could learn, practise and become a musician,” he tells us. Calling the award a collective achievement, he adds, “An award may have one person’s name on it, but the journey behind it is rarely one person’s alone. This belongs to them as much as it belongs to me. I just hope that, through my work and the …

File | Photo Credit: ANI West Bengal Chief Minister Suvendu Adhikari on Friday (June 12, 2026) said the government would bring the Tata Group back to the State. However, he added that the land at Singur on which Tata Motors had set up a car factory is no longer with the State government as it had been returned to the farmers. “The farmers at Singur cannot grow any crops because the concrete brought for the factory got mixed with the soil,” the Chief Minister said. The withdrawal of Tata Motors from Singur in 2008 is considered a setback for the industrial aspirations of the people of West Bengal. After a protracted legal battle, the land acquired by the Left Front government at Singur was returned to the farmers of West Bengal by Mamata Banerjee during the Trinamool regime. Speaking to presspersons at an event to mark 12 years of the Narendra Modi government at the Centre, Mr. Adhikari said his government is serious on attracting investments to the State …

The innings that proved he belongs in India’s white-ball plans

The innings that proved he belongs in India’s white-ball plans

Published by Webster

It was the shot that liberated Royal Challengers Bengaluru. When Rajat Patidar strode to the middle in the eleventh over, none of their batsmen — including Phil Salt who had just been dismissed — were in complete command. The heavy outfield was holding up the ball. The hard lengths CSK had hit were creating doubt. The run-rate spiked to 10 one moment and dropped to 8 the next. Nobody seemed to know what a par score was. When Patidar left at the end of the innings, RCB had scored 157 off 56 deliveries — mind-boggling carnage, with Devdutt Padikkal’s and Tim David’s knocks sandwiched in between. He started it. After taking a single off the first ball he faced, Patidar fronted up to Noor Ahmad. Spin against Patidar is not a favourable match-up. He strikes at 170.30 against tweakers. Has hit more sixes off spin — 46 — than boundaries — 22. In the middle overs he goes at 174.23 against slow bowling, 44 of those 46 sixes coming in that phase. Not even Shreyas …

Saiyaara, Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat prove 2025 belongs to romance in Bollywood; can Tere Ishk Mein end it with a bang?

Published by Parlour News

The eulogies for romances in Bollywood had been written extensively after the pandemic. All of a sudden, mass seemed to be the way to go for every actor and producer, with action films looking like the only certain way of drawing audiences. When even actors like Shah Rukh Khan and Manoj Bajpayee turned to mass action, it rang alarm bells in the industry for the lovers of good ol’ romance. Sure, films like Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani kept the genre afloat, but it was 2025 that truly revived it in Hindi cinema. Dhanush and Kriti Sanon star in Aanand L Rai’s Tere Ishk Mein. Intense romance finds success again Saiyaara came like a breath of fresh air – a romantic drama with young actors that broke decades-old box office records without anybody expecting it to. A couple of other romantic dramas did fairly well without setting the cash registers ringing. But then Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat again surprised the trade pundits with its ₹100-crore (and counting) run. The message is clear – give …
