Some songs transcend popularity and become an inseparable part of people's lives. They go beyond entertainment, capturing emotions, memories and relationships. 'Chitthi Aayi Hai..., from Mahesh Bhatt's 1986 film 'Naam', is one such song. Pankaj Udhas's soulful voice, Anand Bakshi's simple yet touching lyrics, and the evocative music of Laxmikant-Pyarelal combined to create a timeless classic.

Some films hold the audience with their story, presentation and technical brilliance, while also leaving behind a nagging question: could the film have been far more impactful if different actors had been chosen for some of its characters? 'Main Wapas Aaunga' is one such film. It has a strong story, superb editing and several impressive acting moments, but its casting seems to limit the film's potential in several places.

There are some voices that make time seem to stand still. It is as if a love story, imprisoned for centuries within the walls of an ancient palace, suddenly comes alive. As if the tears hidden in the heart of a woman yearning for her beloved emerge as melodies. And as if, before the power of music, royalty, grandeur, and all the glitter of the world seem insignificant.

Close your eyes and travel back to an Indian wedding of the 1960s. A dusty road, a groom perched proudly on a decorated mare, colourful clothes, curious children and a noisy procession of baraatis. Suddenly, the bandmaster raises his trumpet. And then it happens. “Come September…"

Gopalswamy Doraiswamy Naidu’s business philosophy is a unique milestone in Indian industrial history.

Why did the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh allegedly kill Mahatma Gandhi, and why has the organisation faced bans and seen those bans lifted as many times? Why did the RSS write letters to Indira Gandhi during the Emergency? Why did the RSS demolish the Babri Masjid? What evidence exists of the social-service activities undertaken by the RSS? And why, allegedly, did the RSS have its own volunteers killed in Kerala and West Bengal to portray itself as a ‘victim’? The film 'Aakhri Sawaal' attempts to answer these five questions that are frequently asked about the RSS.

Why does Varun Dhawan try to become 'Govinda'? The question is interesting because if we look closely at Varun Dhawan’s career, the answer seems to lie not in his acting ability, but in his choice of acting style.

The cinema hall falls silent. On the giant screen, gods and demons clash in a battle that shakes the heavens. Divine weapons streak across the sky, conch shells roar, and armies collide in a spectacle of fire and thunder. Then comes the decisive moment. Evil is vanquished. The demon falls. The audience erupts in applause. Some wipe away tears. Others leave the theatre with an unexpected sense of relief, as though justice has finally prevailed. It is more than entertainment. It is an emotional catharsis, as old as humanity itself.
