Pralhad Joshi at Idea Exchange: ‘In Kerala, preparations for the next election will start… people used to say we won’t win in Bengal, but we did’ | Idea Exchange News

Pralhad Joshi, Union Cabinet Minister of Consumer Affairs, Food and Public Distribution and New and Renewable Energy, on the BJP electoral wins in Assam and West Bengal, the impact of the US-Iran war on the renewable energy sector and his party’s stand on women’s quota and delimitation. The session was moderated by Harikishan Sharma, Senior Assistant Editor, The Indian Express. Harikishan Sharma: In the recent Assembly elections, your party did extremely well in the eastern states. What worked in your favour? As far as Assam is concerned, it was good governance. If your intentions are good, if you are here for the welfare of the people and work honestly, ultimately, this is the outcome. Just look at the Congress party. People are now questioning why they should vote for the Congress. Its arrogance has become the party’s unbecoming. In West Bengal, it was an anti-incumbency sentiment — against arrogance and harassing people, no law and order. People were really fed up. They were never allowed to vote. But this time, the administration, especially, the Election …

Dhurandhar 2: Action director Oh Sea Young on Ranveer SIngh`s preparations

Relentless action fuels the almost four-hour saga that is Dhurandhar: The Revenge. To bring his story from paper to screen, filmmaker Aditya Dhar roped in action directors Oh Sea Young, Yannick Ben, Aejaz Gulab, and Ramazan Bulut. According to Young, the film has shaped up as a stylised action fare for two reasons — Dhar’s vision and leading man Ranveer Singh’s “obsession”.   “Ranveer is a beast — pure energy,” Young told mid-day. Even as the South Korean stunt director has worked with several action heroes in Bollywood, he noted that Singh’s dedication to perfect the scenes is almost unmatched. “He is the first actor I know who takes notes on fights and choreography. He’d ask things like, ‘If I’m throwing a right hook, where is my left hand?’ He would write everything down. He even asked for demos right before the camera rolled. I was shocked he hadn’t done a pure action film before. Ranveer can master it in a short time through sheer obsession.” Ranveer Singh in ‘Dhurandhar: The Revenge’. Pics/Youtube From Singh’s …
