The second chapter of upcoming Kannada action-drama "KGF", starring Yash in the lead, had its official launch here on Wednesday at a ceremony in the presence of the film's cast and crew. The launch was attended by Yash, Srinidhi Shetty, director Prashant Neel and producer Vijay Kiragandur. Following the runaway success of "KGF", which emerged as the first Kannada film to breach the Rs 200 crore club worldwide, the hype for " KGF: Chapter 2 " has reached unprecedented heights. In a recent interview to IANS, Yash said the second chapter will be "bigger" and "better" than the first part.

'Why Cheat India' is a stinging slap on educational policies

Film: "Why Cheat India; Director: Soumik Sen; Cast: Emraan Hashmi , Shreya Dhanwanthary; Rating: ****(4 stars) Relevant topical films frequently fall into the trap of overstatement. But here is where " Why Cheat India " scores high marks. It succeeds avoiding the imbalance between topicality and engagingness by simply letting the actors be. The characters in this film exposing the scam of forged duplicate examinees don't quite develop into the explosive entities they promise to. Their working class psyche shines in their disability to generate spectacular drama. Hearts are broken, young lives are destroyed, marriages fall apart, and ambition dissolve... But life goes on. Director Soumik Sen sees life in trivia. In the way the characters speak of their unremarkable life, the film creates quite a remarkable litany of bustling boredom.

Care for your hair dear brides

For women, the preparations towards perfecting the bridal look starts way in advance. Give your hair the care it deserves before your D-day and afterwards too, say experts. Adhuna Bhabani, Founder and Creative Director, BBLUNT, points out possible causes of hair damage: * The thing about damage is that it is a gradual process. You may not see it at once, but over a period of time the quality of the hair will deteriorate. Damaged hair not only lacks moisture and lustre but elasticity as well and this makes it more prone to breakage, split ends and ultimately hair fall. * A lot of brides tend to be anxious with a lead up unto their big day. Pre-wedding jitters only add to their list of woes. Very often, anxiety leads to hair fall and a stressed scalp. Wedding planning can get hectic; but regular hair care is necessary for beautiful looking healthy hair. * Innumerable rounds of trousseau shopping mean continuously exposing your hair to dust and pollution.
