Anya Taylor-Joy says women don’t have luxury of method acting like men in Hollywood: ‘We have things to take care of’

Actor Anya Taylor-Joy has something to say about the never-ending debate around method acting. The Dune actor feels that women in the industry never get the opportunity to fully become immersed in their roles like some of their male counterparts, since they always have more things going on outside of work. In a recent conversation, the actor said that she has never been a method actor and she does even see herself opting that kind of skill. Anya Taylor-Joy questions method acting, says women can’t ‘completely lose our minds’. (AFP) Women don’t have the luxury of method acting In recent years, Anya has captivated the audiences with her strong performances on screen. However, she does not see method acting as a tool that impresses her. “If you’ll notice, women don’t method act because we have things to take care of, so we can’t completely lose our minds. I see acting as a controlled psychosis in a way. You’re pretending to be somebody else and having their thoughts 16 hours a day and moving like them, …

Inside an ice box: Revathy recalls how Vijay showed surprising care on Thamizhan set | Tamil News

3 min readHyderabadJul 26, 2026 09:48 AM IST Actor and filmmaker Revathy, who played Vijay’s sister in the 2002 film Thamizhan and returned to play his mother in Jana Nayagan 24 years later, recalled a moment from their first film together that stayed with her for the longest time. In Thamizhan, directed by Majith, Revathy played Vijay’s sister. One of her scenes required her to perform a death sequence in which her character dies inside an ice box with her eyes open. It was physically uncomfortable and emotionally demanding. And it was during the preparation for that scene that Vijay, a man she described as “the quietest person on the sets,” walked up to her. “He came to me and asked whether I could do it and if I’d be fine with it,” Revathy recalled, adding, “Though he talks less, he is one of the most humble and caring persons I have worked with.” Also Read: Jana Nayagan Box Office Collection Day 3 Live Update: Vijay’s film earns Rs 171 cr worldwide Thamizhan, which also …

‘We don’t care about you’: The Vijay Anand-Vyjayanthimala feud that almost derailed Jewel Thief  | Bollywood News

4 min readNew DelhiJul 22, 2026 08:30 AM IST Long before Jewel Thief (1967) became one of Bollywood’s most memorable spy thrillers, it brought some of the biggest names of Hindi cinema together. Legendary actors Dev Anand, Vyjayanthimala, Ashok Kumar and Tanuja, who had already delivered several hits by then, collaborated with acclaimed filmmaker Vijay Anand for this immersive whodunit. While the film went on to become a huge commercial and critical success, Jewel Theif’s director had to face several challenges while shooting the film, including his feud with the lead actress Vyjayanthimala. His biography, Goldie: The Man and His Movies, details the journey of making the film. After the success of his hit film Guide (1965), Vijay was keen to move away from romance and try a different genre. The story, which he wrote with Narayan Sanyal, is about Vinay (played by Dev Anand) who is taken for a criminal mastermind Amar. To clear his name, Vinay goes undercover and becomes a part of a mind-boggling heist. Jewel Thief’s casting process The casting of …

‘Donate a Memory’: Bengaluru-based Nightingales Medical Trust seeks vintage household items for India’s first integrated dementia care village

The Trust is appealing for donations of items such as old radios, gramophones, black-and-white televisions, tape recorders, rotary telephones and more. | Image for representational purpose | Photo Credit: VSanandhakrishna An old radio gathering dust in the attic, a hand-operated sewing machine, a brass utensil passed down through generations or a black-and-white television that no longer works could soon find a new purpose: helping a person living with dementia reconnect with cherished memories. Bengaluru-based Nightingales Medical Trust has launched ‘Donate a Memory’, a public campaign inviting individuals and families to donate vintage household objects for Smriti Gram, an integrated dementia care village that the Trust is developing near Doddaballapur.  Powerful memory cues The Trust said familiar objects from earlier decades can serve as powerful memory cues for people with dementia, helping stimulate recognition, encourage conversations, reduce anxiety and improve emotional well-being. Expected to become operational in September, the first phase of Smriti Gram will include a 100-bed residential facility for economically disadvantaged persons living with dementia, along with a training academy and a research and …

Can one insulin shot a week improve diabetes care?

Can one insulin shot a week improve diabetes care?

A once-weekly insulin injection is an exciting development in diabetes care, but is it automatically better for everyone? That’s the question we asked experts as Danish drugmaker Novo Nordisk (NOVOb.CO) recently launched its weekly basal insulin injection, Awiqli, in India. DISCLAIMER: This article is based on information from the public domain and/or the experts we spoke to. Always consult your health practitioner before starting any routine. “The arrival of once-weekly basal insulin is one of the most meaningful advances in insulin therapy for people with type 2 diabetes. It is not just about reducing injections from 365 a year to only 52. It is about making treatment simpler, less intimidating, and easier to follow over the long-term,” said Dr Rajiv Kovil, diabetes and obesity specialist, Zandra Healthcare. The biggest advantage is convenience. “Instead of remembering a daily injection, a person only needs one injection a week. This may make treatment easier to follow, especially for those who struggle with missed doses,” Dr Vijay Negalur, HoD diabetology, KIMS Hospitals, Thane. Notably, the ONWARDS clinical programme (a series …

Joe Sacco traces anatomy of Muzaffarnagar riots with care, without closure | Books and Literature News

Joe Sacco traces anatomy of Muzaffarnagar riots with care, without closure | Books and Literature News

6 min readJul 12, 2026 06:00 AM IST First published on: Jul 12, 2026 at 06:00 AM IST Even a prolific cartoonist like Rajinder Puri, not known to shy away from anything political, was wary of commenting on communal riots. The topical news cartoon has no space to reflect on the collective violent outburst. Pithy punchlines made under the day’s deadline could, in the middle of conflict, be grabbed by either side to further polarisation. It took Joe Sacco to break this self-imposed cartooning reticence. Now we see how a riot in India could be talked about in book-length cartooning with precision, empathy and, most of all, perspective. Like every chronicler of Hindu-Muslim strife, Sacco goes back to the birth pangs of the two nations — the trauma of millions displaced like the Karachi-born Puri. Sacco does it early on, on page 7, in a masterly stroke that sums up the 1947 Partition of the subcontinent in one page. He doesn’t dwell on it, urges you to read on. This urge to narrate without a …

Don’t care about name on letterhead: Sergio Gor on Indo-Pacific command row

Don’t care about name on letterhead: Sergio Gor on Indo-Pacific command row

U.S. Ambassador to India Sergio Gor dismissed the row over the renaming of the Indo-Pacific Command, saying the “name on the letterhead” does not matter, but rather, look at what America is actually doing. Addressing the U.S.-India Strategic Partnership Forum Leadership Summit on Monday (June 29, 2026), Mr. Gor said India still conducts more military exercises with the U.S. than any other country and has regular bilateral visits of defence officials. Mr. Gor’s remarks came in the wake of a row over dropping ‘Indo’ from the Indo-Pacific Command. Established in 1947, the U.S. Pacific Command is among the oldest unified commands of the U.S. that extend from the West Coast of the U.S. to India’s western border. During U.S. President Donald Trump’s first term, the Pacific Command was renamed the Indo-Pacific Command, citing the growing importance of India in the Indo-Pacific region. Earlier this month the U.S. restored the original name of the unified command. “I just want to mention something because a lot of individuals made hay over a name change. I don’t care …
