Saints GM Mickey Loomis high on QB Tyler Shough and noncommittal on aging veterans

METAIRIE, La. — If Saints quarterback Tyler Shough was seeking an endorsement from general manager Mickey Loomis, he could start with the way Loomis talked about how he plans to use New Orleans’ eighth overall pick in the upcoming NFL draft. The Saints will be free to “take the best player that’s available that can impact our team, as opposed to, we have to have this position or that position,” Loomis said Wednesday while reviewing New Orleans’ season. In other words, the Saints won’t feel compelled to use a high draft choice on a QB after watching Shough win five of his nine starts as a rookie this season on a team plagued by skill-position injuries. New Orleans finished 6-11 under first-year coach Kellen Moore. Loomis said the Saints were “obviously pleased,” and not necessarily surprised, by the 26-year-old Shough’s performance after being drafted 40th overall out of Louisville last spring. “We thought a lot of him going into the draft,” Loomis said. “That’s why we drafted him.” Less certain are the futures of veterans …

Movie Saints’ founder Kanada Rishiraj on Sitaare Zameen Par`s pay-per-view model

Movie Saints’ founder Kanada Rishiraj on Sitaare Zameen Par`s pay-per-view model

There is increased attention on Sitaare Zameen Par, and for good reason. Aamir Khan’s upcoming offering could determine a new revenue model for films. Earlier this month, reports emerged that two months after the RS Prasanna-directed dramedy’s big-screen release on June 20, Khan would skip the OTT route and make it available on YouTube in a pay-per-view format. While industry insiders are eager to see how the new business model fares, pay-per-view platform Movie Saints’ founder Kanada Rishiraj has expressed interest in hosting the movie. He believes his platform, which launched in 2019, has a big advantage over YouTube — robust safeguarding against piracy. While Khan has yet to officially announce Sitaare Zameen Par’s post-release plans, Rishiraj hopes that the actor and producer will consider Movie Saints as an option. The founder makes a case for his platform with a simple question. “When was the last time you watched a full-length film on YouTube? It’s not the right platform to host Sitaare Zameen Par. YouTube is for 10–15 minute videos.” Kanada Rishiraj Rishiraj then points …

Saints warn against ‘political misuse’ of Sanatan Dharma

Saints and seers gathered at the Triveni Sangam for the ‘Amrit Snan’ on the occasion of Basant Panchami on Monday cautioned political leaders against misusing Sanatan Dharma and spreading rumours for political gain, and praised Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath over arrangements at the Maha Kumbh. They also took a firm stand against those criticising the Maha Kumbh after the January 29 stampede. The pre-dawn crush during the Amrit Snan on the occasion of Mauni Amavasya had resulted in the death of 30 pilgrims and injuries to 60 others. While police said it was due to overcrowding at the Sangam, some people, including opposition leaders, questioned the arrangements to handle the sea of devotees at the gathering.

Kim Kardashian Shuts Down Son Saint’s YouTube Channel After Anti-Kamala Harris Videos

Kim Kardashian is making important decisions in her journey as a mother, including removing her son’s YouTube channel after it was reported that two videos critical of Kamala Harris were posted on it. According to Buzzfeed’s article, in one clip, there is an angry individual who lifts up his shoe to show an image of the democratic nominee and he goes, “I stepped on s**t.” Another clip consisted of a picture of Harris next to a montage of Saved By The Bell that reportedly called her “stupid”, “dumb,” “crazy.” and “dangerous.” During Kim Kardashian‘s appearance on That’s My Best Friend podcast, she expressed about experiencing mortifying emotions. She gave an example of her son, Saint while explaining that she was behind his channel being taken down.

EPL: Man City claim top spot with Saints win, Villa up to third despite draw | Football News

Manchester City did just enough to beat lowly Southampton 1-0 thanks to an early Erling Haaland goal on Saturday as they provisionally climbed atop the Premier League to tee up Sunday’s clash between fellow title contenders Liverpool and Arsenal. High-flying Aston Villa had to settle for a 1-1 draw with visiting Bournemouth after conceding at the death as late goals were a feature of the afternoon’s entertainment. Brentford clawed back a two-goal deficit to beat 10-man Ipswich Town 4-3 and Wolverhampton Wanderers escaped Brighton & Hove Albion with a 2-2 draw thanks to a stoppage-time equaliser. Manchester City’s Erling Haaland scored an early goal to give the champions a two-point cushion over Liverpool, who are second and visit fourth-placed Arsenal on Sunday. “I will watch (Sunday’s game),” said City manager Pep Guardiola. “I prefer to be on top than not be on top, but it’s not the point. Just look what happened today, Villa dropped points and Brighton dropped points because it’s so difficult.” While Haaland scored a stunner in Wednesday’s 5-0 Champions League thrashing …

Pay-per-view platform Movie Saints owner on streaming giants

Ajira Rungta remembers watching Ritesh Sharma’s directorial venture, Jhini Bini Chadariya, at the 2021 Dharamshala International Film Festival. Right then, she knew it was just the kind of film she was seeking for her platform, Movie Saints. “I told Ritesh that I want to make everybody watch this movie. He had been taking Jhini Bini Chadariya to various film festivals, and wanted to sell it to an OTT platform, but the deal couldn’t happen. That’s how our journey [with this film] started,” recalls Rungta. Ajira Rungta Jhini Bini Chadariya, presented by Anurag Kashyap, is one of the many indie films that have found a home in Movie Saints. Instead of seeking subscribers, the platform follows a pay-per-view model sustained by cinephiles across the globe, offering a space where indie filmmakers can recover costs. The idea is to foster a parallel ecosystem for independent cinema. Rungta launched the niche platform in 2019 with the Assamese film Aamis (2019), but it was hit during the pandemic. Now, as the platform is being resurrected, Rungta is relying on …
