Vijay Deverakonda and Kriti Sanon turn up the heat with Breezer Vivid Shuffle season 4 November 05, 2020 at 07:47PM

After three years and three successful seasons of the most epic dance battles in the country, India’s biggest hip-hop festival is back with Season 4! This season Breezer Vivid Shuffle, the largest hip-hop dance festival is taking it a notch higher by transforming into India’s first ever hip-hop league. In it’s first digital edition, the Breezer Vivid Shuffle League conceptualized and produced by Only Much Louder Entertainment PVT LTD will kickstart from 6^th November, and has opened the floor to not just b-boys and b-girls, but also rappers, artists and just about anybody who wants to make waves in India’s hip-hop scene. Going beyond the realm of dance, this year the festival is following a league format that will include all elements of hip-hop across music, art and dance. Led by ambassadors Kriti Sanon and Vijay Devarakonda, the league will span over 5 months as it digitally travels across regions to scout for talent from every nook and corner of the country.

Alongside the ambassadors, there will be four league ambassadors namely, Kr$na, JordIndian, Shantanu Maheshwari and Piyush & Shazia, leading four teams with participants from five distinct fields of music, art and dance. Additionally, participants will get a chance to brush up their skills, through the School of Shuffle workshops and masterclasses conducted by experts, during the festival. Online registrations for the league will take place on Insider starting 6^th November and will continue till 21^st December, post which virtual auditions will commence on 17^th January. The winners will win big this year with a cash prize of INR 2 Million.

“I have always loved dancing before I even started acting. Hip-hop is one of the coolest dance forms and it makes me immensely happy that I finally get to be a part of this colourful and disruptive movement. I believe there are so many talented dancers out there who are just waiting for a platform like BREEZER Vivid Shuffle and I am super excited to see the crazy talent that gets discovered this season,” said Kriti Sanon.

“Hip-hop’s been a fascination since I was young- the music, the fashion, culture, graffiti. I used to be a hooked to watching international dance shows and always wished I could pop, lock, krump and freestyle like the dancers on the show. Till today hip-hop is my only go-to for music when I workout so I am really excited by the BREEZER Vivid Shuffle League, which is bringing to us all things I love about hip-hop on one platform. Look forward to the great talent and a great show,” stated Vijay Devarakonda.

“For three consecutive years, BVS has been associated with hip-hop and given opportunities to youth across the country to showcase their talent. With the rapidly changing consumer behaviour this year, we wanted to adapt the platform to continue being relevant for our consumers. Going digital allowed us to explore hip-hop culture as a whole and lend artists a platform beyond dance where they can showcase their skills across many subgenres of hip-hop. With everything we’ve got planned, we’re positive that Season 4 will see some of the greatest talents in the country come together and Live Life in Colour!” said Arti Hajela, Senior Brand Manager, RTD, AMEA at Bacardi.

“The biggest question relating to this year's edition of BREEZER Vivid Shuffle was: “What can we do to grow this community and make it accessible to an even larger audience?” So, we built upon the central aspects of the festival, namely, freedom of expression, movement and individuality. With the 2020 edition of the festival being digital, plus the expansion of its format from India’s Largest Hip-Hop Festival to India’s First Hip-Hop League, we hope to make it even more inclusive, exciting and successful than ever before,” said Gunjan Arya, Chief Executive Officer, OML

Breezer Vivid Shuffle started back in 2017 with the purpose of providing a platform for India’s burgeoning hip-hop scene. It also aims to bring the subculture in mainstream conversations. Every year the festival travels across the country to discover and promote the best dance talent.

अभिषेक बच्चन ने कहा- पापा ने मेरे लिए कभी कोई फिल्म नहीं बनाई, उन्होंने कभी मेरी मदद नहीं की November 05, 2020 at 08:31PM

अभिषेक बच्चन ने बॉलीवुड में छिड़ी भाई-भतीजावाद (नेपोटिज्म) की बहस अपनी बात रखी है। उनकी मानें तो 20 साल के फिल्मी करियर में कभी उनके पिता अमिताभ बच्चन ने उनकी मदद नहीं की। वे कहते हैं कि किसी भी एक्टर के लंबे करियर में सिर्फ ऑडियंस की ऐक्सैप्टैंस मदद कर सकती है।

'पापा ने मेरे लिए कोई फिल्म नहीं बनाई'

न्यूज एजेंसी आईएएनएस से बातचीत में अभिषेक ने पिता अमिताभ को लेकर कहा, "सच्चाई यह है कि उन्होंने कभी किसी का फोन तक नहीं उठाया। उन्होंने मेरे लिए कभी कोई फिल्म नहीं बनाई। इसके उलट मैंने उनके लिए फिल्म 'पा' प्रोड्यूस की। कहने का मतलब है कि उन्होंने कभी मेरी मदद नहीं की।"

अभिषेक आगे कहते हैं, "लोगों को समझना चाहिए कि यह एक धंधा है। पहली फिल्म के बाद अगर उन्हें आप में कुछ नहीं दिखता है या फिल्म नंबर्स नहीं बटोर पाती है तो आपको अगला जॉब नहीं मिलने वाला। यह जिंदगी की कड़वी सच्चाई है।"

'जानता हूं किन फिल्मों में रिप्लेस किया गया'

अभिषेक के मुताबिक, वे बहुत अच्छे से जानते हैं कि इंडस्ट्री कैसे काम करती है। उन्होंने कहा, "जब मेरी फिल्में नहीं चलतीं तो मुझे पता होता है। मैं जानता हूं कि मुझे किन फिल्मों से रिप्लेस कर दिया गया। मैं उन फिल्मों के बारे में जानता हूं, जो बन नहीं सकीं। जो शुरू तो हुईं, लेकिन उनके पास बजट नहीं था। यह इसलिए हुआ, क्योंकि उस वक्त मैं बैंकेबल नहीं था। अमिताभ बच्चन का बेटा यहां है।"

पसंदीदा रोल पर याद की शाहरुख की सलाह

जब इस इंटरव्यू में अभिषेक से उनके पसंदीदा रोल के बारे में पूछा गया तो उन्होंने कहा, "जब मैं फिल्मों में नहीं आया था, तब शाहरुख खान ने मुझसे कहा था कि हमेशा याद रखना, तुम्हारा पसंदीदा रोल वह होना चाहिए, जो तुम उस वक्त कर रहे हो। अगर वह तुम्हारा पसंदीदा नहीं है तो फिर कर क्यों रहे हो।"

12 नवंबर को रिलीज हो रही अगली फिल्म

अभिषेक बच्चन इस साल की शुरुआत में आखिरी बार वेब सीरीज 'ब्रीद 2' में नजर आए थे और उनके रोल को खूब सराहना मिली थी। उनकी अगली फिल्म 'लूडो' 12 नवंबर को नेटफ्लिक्स पर रिलीज हो रही है, जिसका निर्देशन अनुराग बसु ने किया है। फिल्म में अभिषेक के अलावा आदित्य रॉय कपूर, राजकुमार राव, पंकज त्रिपाठी, फातिमा सना शेख और सान्या मल्होत्रा भी नजर आएंगे।

Salman Khan to do two look look tests for Mahesh Manjrekar's Antim November 05, 2020 at 06:33PM

Touted to be the biggest action drama in the making, the Hindi remake of Marathi film Mulshi Pattern starring Salman Khan and Aayush Sharma is set to roll this month. The film was earlier titled Guns Of North but now will be called Antim as it focuses on the face off between a gangster and a cop. After multiple script changes, Salman Khan was back on board to star as the cop. Mulshi Pattern actor Mahesh Manjrekar will direct the Hindi remake after replacing previous director Abhiraj Minawala.

According to a daily, the shooting will commence on November 15 in Mumbai. This weekend, Salman Khan will do two look tests. While everything is settled and ready to roll, Mahesh and Salman are still in dilemma about the cop's role that whether he should be Sikh like it was earlier decided or Maharashtrian. Since Mulshi Pattern had a Maharashtrian cop, Manjrekar was hoping to follow the same. However, Salman feels playing a Sikh cop will have pan India appeal. The two of them have been brainstorming for a while and have decided to do look tests this weekend. Salman Khan will sport both looks and eventually lock in the final look after it.

Ashley Rebello and Alvira Agnihotri will be styling Salman Khan. The film will see Aayush Sharma as the gangster. The mahurat of the film will be done at Mehboob Studios during Diwali following which a month long schedule will be commenced at ND Studios in Karjat.

Since it is now called Antim, it signifies the end of the evil. The film will have start-to-finish schedule at venues in Mumbai and Karjat. The majority of the chunk is set in village which will be recreated in the studio.  The actor will be shooting action sequences and the filming will go until January.

It will release in five different languages including Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada and Oriya.
