Sachin: A Billion Dreams: A glorified account of an over-glorified celeb

Like his book, Tendulkar's biopic is a nostalgic cruise through his career

As I walked out of the cinema hall after watching Sachin: A Billion Dreams, I wondered: Would I have thought differently of this biopic had I not known anything about the person it is based on? James Erskine’s documentary on one of the most celebrated cricketers in the world – one who has achieved a near-deific status in India – went along expected lines.

But was that because I, like many Indians and cricket followers around the world, already knew so much about Sachin Tendulkar? How would someone living under a rock for the last quarter of a century, and did not know who Tendulkar was, have liked it?

Sachin: A Billion Dreams starts off rather nicely, showing us a naughty curly-haired boy of seven or eight years living in Mumbai’s Bandra suburb, getting up to the usual seven-or-eight-year-old boy things like annoying his neighbours with pranks. The boy then receives a cricket bat as a gift from his elder sister, and this is where the story that most Indians and cricket followers already know begins.

This wasn’t the first time I was watching the celluloid adaptation of a story I already knew. I wasn’t, of course, expecting any suspense or plot twists, but I have been far more entertained by some of those other movies where I already knew what was going to happen, than I was by Sachin: A Billion Dreams. Maybe our man under the rock might think differently, but then a story still needs to be told properly, completely and honestly, and this is where Erskine’s attempt is found lacking. (more)

Smartron srt.phone: A fine deal if you are a die-hard Sachin Tendulkar fan

Powerful innards of Smartron's 'all-rounder' smartphone are failed by its many software glitches

Domestic information technology (IT) start-up Smartron, which counts Indian cricket legend Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar and former Motorola Mobility Chief Executive Sanjay Jha among its investors, recently launched the srt.phone smartphone, “inspired by the dependable traits of Tendulkar”.

At the launch of srt.phone, the company claimed that the smartphone used the best antennas and other security features that made it an all-rounder. Indeed, Smartron has pleased investors with its manoeuvres to deliver solutions ranging from internet of things (IoT) to smartphones built specifically for Indian consumers. But how does the srt.phone fare against the claims of dependability and the inspiration it apparently draws from one of the tallest role models for India in recent times?

To find out, Business Standard took the device for a spin and tested its real-life performance. Here is an in-depth review of the srt.phone:

Watch the hands-on review here
Design

The srt.phone offers a no-frills design, with rounded edges and curved sides. The smartphone might look appealing, but its polycarbonate built with metallic finish seems to somewhat spoil the experience. The plastic built is not loose or creaky – it fits perfectly on all sides and the matte touch adds to the aesthetics – but the pseudo metallic look was not necessary; it is way too prominent even at the first glance.

The front of the srt.phone is dominated by a 5.5-inch full-HD display protected with Gorilla Glass 3. There are three capacitive keys below the display, but these are without any sign or icon, just three flat dots. These dots acts are the home button and navigation keys. The earpiece along with sensors are placed neatly on the top, next to the front camera. (more)

'Sachin: A Billion Dreams': Informative, inspirational (IANS Review, Rating: ***)

Film: "Sachin: A Billion Dreams"; Director: James Erskine; Cast: Sachin Tendulkar, Anjali Tendulkar, Ajit Tendulkar, Sara Tendulkar, Mayuresh Pem, Mayur More; Rating: ***

"Sachin: A Billion Dreams" is a biopic that gives a holistic view of Sachin Tendulkar's life, who is revered as "the God" of cricket by his fans.

Structurally, the film is designed as a documentary. While the film encapsulates the life of the master blaster right from his birth till date, it also gives an insight into the socio-economic situation of the country, making it feel like heavy-duty stuff.

This may not be the first documentary on Tendulkar, but probably it is the only one endorsed by him. So, you have him as the narrator sharing his personal moments along with his views and fears in a sincere and heartfelt manner.

While the film tells us of his growth as a cricketer which is common knowledge, it also reveals his personal life bringing to the fore his close-knit family and friends. How he got the name Sachin, how he met his wife, got married and how he spends his free moments, are a few of the interesting nuggets shared. So apart from Sachin you actually get to see his family and friends. Read more

Before Bahubali 2, makers to release Bahubali 1 again

Rana Daggubati and Prabhas are overwhelmed with the response to the trailer of Bahubali 2

Director S S Rajamouli wants the audiences to revisit the world of "Bahubali" before the release of " Bahubali 2 : The Conclusion".

Rajamouli today said they are planning to show the first part a week before the second edition hits theatres on April 28.

"We are planning to release part one maybe one or two weeks before the release of part two in southern states so people can get back into the narrative," Rajamouli said at the trailer launch of the Hindi version here.

Both Rana Daggubati and Prabhas are overwhelmed with the response to the trailer.

"The fans are happy with it. It's overwhelming to be a part of the film," Rana said.

The Tamil version of the trailer had leaked online hours before its official release and the makers called it "technical glitch".

"This particular thing is neither due to leakage or piracy, it is due to some technical glitch on Facebook. The video which was to be on private mode went on public mode. But fans are happy that we came early. All is well that ends well," Rajamouli said.

"Baahubali: The Beginning" is one of the highest grossing Indian films, which reportedly earned Rs 650 crore at the box office.

Karan Johar, who is presenting the Hindi version of the film, joked that presenters made all the money.

"The presenters make money, the one who put their hard work, blood, sweat and tears don't make money always. But the equity the film has made is beyond monetary," he added.

Watch the trailer here.

IS SALMAN KHAN DATING AMY JACKSON?

Is This the Real Reason Why Salman Khan Gatecrashed 2.0 First Look Launch Event?

\

Salman Khan’s surprise entry to Rajinikanth’s 2.0 first look launch uninvited grabbed headlines for obvious reasons. While Khan stated that he dropped by to meet his idol, superstar Rajinikanth, it seems there is a more than what meets the eye.

According to a report in Mumbai Mirror, Salman Khan is not any more with Iulia Vantur but is smitten by another foreign beauty. The lady in question is Amy Jackson. Onlookers at the 2.0 event state that Salman dropped by actually to support Jackson, who is the leading lady of the film. While the cast and crew posed with Salman on stage, Salman was seen constantly talking to Amy, who simply smiled and blushed in return.

Has Salman Khan found love in Amy Jackson, after Iulia Vantur?

Salman Khan and Iulia Vantur are a thing of past now. Brutal no? Just a few months ago we were raving about Bhai and his Romanian girlfriend who was a permanent fixture at his Galaxy Apartments home. She was also seen travelling with his mother Salma and sister Alvira to his Sultan sets.

They were going really strong, grapevine was abuzz with a possible wedding too! But things fell apart and they had to part ways. Vantur made her breakup very public with her interview to a local newspaper back at her home. Sallu Bhai seems undeterred with his break up as he is already moved past this Romanian beauty right into the gorgeous arms of someone else.

Now, aren’t you excited to know who’s this beauty to have caught Bhai’s attention? Well, she is 2.0’s leading lady Amy Jackson.

Weren’t you a little surprised as Salman made a surprise appearance at Rajinikanth-Akshay Kumar’s 2.0 first look launch? This is not a typical thing the Tubelight actor would do. According to Mumbai Mirror, it was a romantic gesture for his lady love who was seen blushing on the dais which she shared with Thalaivar and Akki.

Now, now, now this is truly an interesting turn of events for Salman. Right? There seems to be a common thread if you look at all his past relationships with Katrina Kaif, Iulia Vantur and now Amy Jackson: They are all foreigners. Hmm, we got your weak spot, Salman.

Truth Behind The Unfortunate Love Story Of Amitabh And Rekha

Unforgettable Rekha And Amitabh Love story

Amitabh and Rekha's love story is one of the most talked about affairs of Bollywood even till date. Yet, this much-talked about love story always remained a mystery as both the actors never accepted their relationship in public. While the two themselves have said very little, everyone else seems more than certain about the affair.

Amitabh and Rekha- the two legends of our film industry, how did it all begin and how it ended? Here is unfolding the secret behind this love story.

An unsuccessful love-story of one of the most successful romantic pairs of Bollywood.

Their love story began on the sets of film Do Anjaane (1976). During the initial days of their relationship, the couple used to meet in a bungalow that belonged to Rekha's friend. Everything was a smooth sail until an incident happened.

During the shoots of Ganga Ki Saugandh (1978), Big B reportedly lost his temper on a co-actor who was misbehaving with Rekha. After this, their affair came in the limelight and grabbed the media attention.

The gossip mills started churning out stories of Rekha-Amitabh's affair. They even made headlines saying that Rekha and Amitabh have got secretly married. And, these speculations caught more fire when Rekha turned up at Rishi Kapoor and Neetu Singh's wedding wearingsindoor and mangalsutra. Many questions about this jodi’s affair were answered with this bold step taken by Rekha.

It was reported that after this incident, Jaya Bachchan, invited Rekha home for dinner and told her candidly that she would never leave her husband whatever may happen. And likewise, Jaya kept her promise till the very end.

In an interview given to Filmfare magazine in 1984, Rekha spoke about Amitabh’s denial of their relationship.

She said,

"Why should he have not done it? He did it to protect his image, his family, his children. Why should the public know of my love for him or his love for me? I love him and he loves me- that’s it! If he’d reacted that ways towards me in private, I would have been very disappointed.”

She further added,

“Mr. Bachchan is still old-fashioned. He doesn’t want to hurt anybody so why hurt his wife?”

Amitabh Bachchan despite the superfluous love for Rekha, never admitted it in public. On the other hand, Rekha boldly admitted her love for him. Silsila was this enigmatic couple's last film together.

In an interview with BBC, director Yash Chopra said that Rekha and Amitabh were very much in a relationship before Silsila.

Chopra said,

"I was always on tenterhooks and scared (during Silsila) because it was real life coming into reel life. Jaya is his wife and Rekha is his girlfriend and the same story is going on (in real life). Anything could have happened because they are working together."

After the shoot of Silsila, Amitabh-Rekha’s relationship began to fade. Rekha wanted to marry Amitabh and did not want to settle down with the tag of the 'other woman' in Amitabh's life. She realised she has no future in this relationship. With this, their passionate love story came to an end, both on and off screen.

Rekha wears Sindoor for Big B?

Well, even though Rekha and Amitabh went their separate paths afterwards, but it is well-known that Rekha has always seen making appearances supporting a sindoor on her forehead. While most people for long dismissed it to be Rekha's unique style statement, Deepika Issar, wife of Puneet Issar, believes it to be otherwise. "Rekha wears sindoor for Big B," says Deepali.

What's more? It is also well-known that it was Puneet Issar who accidently caused an injury to Amitabh Bachchan while shooting for Coolie, which became extremely fatal for the star. Puneet Issar recently became a household name once again thanks to Bigg Boss 8.

Post-Silsila, Amitabh is said to have ignored Rekha altogether. Though the two came quite close to starring together in R Balki’s Shamitabh, they did not share any screen space together. This shows that the wounds may have healed with time, the scars never disappeared.

Rekha's lonely life has seen many rumours and some truth. Even her marriage to Delhi-based businessman Mukesh Aggarwal did not last long. But whatever the circumstances had been for their breakup, the heavy aura of this sad love-story still lingers on!
