    Kiran Dembla – The Fitness Machine

    India, September 22: Dr. Deepak Singh, a renowned filmmaker and producer, has recently bagged the rights to produce a biopic on Kiran Dembla- The Fitness Machine. The movie will be an adaptation of the book, which is based on the life of Kiran Dembla, written by the producer himself.

    Kiran Dembla, who hails from Hyderabad, has made her mark and has shattered unconventional stereotypes about women in India. She is a world-famous bodybuilding champion, and she’s also a celebrity fitness trainer to actors like Taapsee Pannu, SS Rajamouli, Prabhas, and many other popular celebrities. While the courageous mother of two is being celebrated for her achievements today, she had to face tough challenges throughout her life for choosing the path which is less travelled by women. The story focuses on her journey from a housewife to a bodybuilder and fitness trainer.

    For every woman in India who is trying to explore her identity and be something more than just a housewife or a mother, the stereotypical thought process of the patriarchal society makes their path more challenging. It is extremely tough for Indian women to pursue careers in the field of sports or bodybuilding – a space that has been stereotypically dominated by men over the years. However, women like Kiran Dembla never failed to prove that one’s future lies in their own hands, irrespective of their gender. 

    Today, Kiran Dembla is nailing her role as a mother while being a successful bodybuilder and fitness trainer. Her family is supportive and proud of her achievements. Apart from being a fitness trainer, she’s also a classical singer, DJ artist, vigorous mountaineer, and trained photographer.

    Sharing her thoughts on the biopic, Kiran Dembla said, “I have always heard of the great works done by Dr. Deepak Singh. When I saw the biopics produced by him, I was thrilled to work with him. Over the years, many women have challenged the stereotypical thought process of Indian society and chosen careers that are viewed as unconventional for women. I feel honoured and privileged to know that my story will be an inspiration to women all over the world and will motivate them to follow their dreams instead of accepting life the way it is. I’m looking forward to this new opportunity, and I’m keeping my fingers crossed.

    She further added, “My journey from a housewife to a bodybuilder and fitness trainer was difficult and challenging. I had to face several negative comments and trolls because of my body. However, these things hardly matter when you have high ambitions and zeal to accomplish your dreams. My family was always supportive, and they’re proud of me, and that is what matters the most.”

    Talking about his upcoming movie, producer and writer, Dr. Deepak Singh said, “I have already made four biopics, and people like Kiran Dembla inspire me to write and produce more such films. She is a woman of true grit and determination and has a story that’s definitely worth your attention. I’m sure the story will inspire thousands of women and motivate them to accomplish their dreams and be something more than just someone’s better -half. The film will hit the theatres soon.”

    Dr. Deepak Singh is a renowned filmmaker and producer and is the owner of Galaxy Entertainment. Apart from that, he is a noted writer and established content creator with more than 15 years of experience in content creation, and he recently penned another book ‘Bravo Yadav’ which is the biography of Honorary Captain Yogendra Jadav Ji PVC, who is India’s youngest Paramveer Chakra recipient and has survived the battle of Kargil War. Dr. Deepak Singh has also produced the critically acclaimed Hindi feature film Soorma directed by Shaad Ali and stars Diljit Dosanjh, Taapsee Pannu, and Angad Bedi in prominent roles under the banner of SONY PICTURES and CS FILMS. The film Soorma is a 2018 Indian Biographical sports drama based on the life of hockey player Sandeep Singh. 

    Dr. Singh has also produced a Hollywood movie, Tiger, with Sir Mickey Rourke and Janel parish in collaboration with R3M Canada and partnered with JK Liv In foundation (Matthew Mc Conaughey) to promote it worldwide. This film is based on the Human Rights subject, and it was a big hit. He also produced the film ‘The Bad President’ based on the life of Sir Donald Trump, in collaboration with Young and Free Films LA. Recently Mr. Dr. Singh has written and directed a short film based on the emotional Bonding of Brother and Sister called ‘Raksha Day Every Day.’ 

    Now, Dr. Singh is looking forward to showcasing the journey of Kiran Dembla from a housewife to a bodybuilder and fitness freak on the big screen.

    Read Time:3 Minute, 5 Second

    All eyes are glued on Bollywood filmmaker Karan Johar as the latest season 7 of Koffee with Karan opening sequence streamed with top stars in a fabulous youth format. The awe-inspiring opening sequence and show set has been creatively directed by Chennai-based renowned agency – Whoa Mama Design  

    Chennai, September 20: Engaging audiences in a slick, never-seen-before, entertaining youth format is what Bollywood filmmaker and show host Karan Johar pulled off with the opening sequence of Koffee with Karan Season 7 on national television. Looking for a fresh, new approach to the opening sequence made Karan Johar’s team turn down South for creative direction. This task was successfully undertaken by Chennai-based renowned agency Whoa Mama Design.

    Excited about the show project, Anek Ahuja, Co-Founder and Business Head of Whoa Mama Design, reveals some inside news, “Karan Johar gave us a concept as a starting point for the film, and from there, we fleshed it out into a kick-ass script that Karan was also happy to have as an opening sequence to the Koffee with Karan Season 7. In fact, to begin with, we were pleasantly surprised when Karan Johar’s team members, including Aneesha Baig, Jahnvi Obhan and Snehal Ahire, reached out to us based on the work they had seen on our agency’s official website. It was a first for us, and we have been very involved and hands-on about this project.”

    Shaun D’sa, Co-Founder & Creative Head, Whoa Mama Design agency, revealed the design process. He said, “Karan Johar is a natural and shooting with him was a pleasure. On the day of the shoot, we required less than a few hours for him to nail every single micro-expression and look. With his performance coupled with the right mix of stylists, models and crew, we created a super stylish opening sequence that rightly captures the flavour of Koffee with Karan. To get the nitty-gritty details right, we spent a lot of time with our director, Rohit Prabhu, planning and conceptualizing everything from the flow of the set to the choreography of the sequence. While the script in itself was simple – it was just an almost seamless shot of Karan rolling up to the red carpet in a fancy car and interacting with his peers, friends and other celebrities on red carpet in his customary style – we had to create an aura of the excitement, hype, gossip, fashion and style that is synonymous with the show.”

    As audiences ask for more and more from this iconic show, Koffee with Karan, Seasons 7 is back with a youthful bang. The title sequence was conceptualized by Karan Johar, produced by Dharmatic Entertainment and creatively directed and shot by Chennai-based branding, communications and design agency – Whoa Mama Design.

    The very first episode of the show created a buzz over social media. Interestingly, the last six seasons of this show were aired over a period of 17 years. While the stars on the talk show keep the audiences hooked, it is also the scintillating title sequence which gives a wow moment, and a peek into the fabulous lives of Bollywood actors, helmed by the star-maker himself, Karan Johar.

  • Gaalib is always special for me, as it is the beginning of non-biographical movies journey of mine: Dhiraj Mishra

    Gaalib is always special for me, as it is the beginning of non-biographical movies journey of mine: Dhiraj Mishra

    Read Time:3 Minute, 26 Second

    Mumbai, September 20: The writer Dhiraj Mishra has come a long way with his writing skills and love for freedom fighters and their stories. He is known for his biopic films. But as everyone wants versatility in their portfolio, he is also one of them. He is coming up with a real story which is unconventional but something that the world needs to know. Everyone knows about Afzal Guru, the one who had attacked the parliament, but nobody knows about his family. Dhiraj is bringing the story of Afzal Guru’s son Gaalib who had secured 4th position in his high school examination. It is quite ordinary for most people, but for Gaalib, it is not, says Dhiraj. Gaalib will hit the theatre on 23rd Sep 2022.

    In an unconventional family where the father is a declared terrorist, what suffers a son and a wife go through every day even though they are not involved in any such activity? They also must face abuse from society and the media.

     

    Gaalib is one such film which will give you goosebumps. The pain and suffering of innocent people, on the one hand, and on the other, the zeal to study and become a civilized citizen is quite rare. The son should not be punished for the mistake of the father, says Dhiraj.

     

    Talking about the journey of Gaalib, he said Filming a real story is always challenging and time-consuming because every incident is connected to another one, and to link that, you need to find the lost pieces of the puzzle. It feels so satisfying to join all the links. During my journey, I met many journalists and social workers who were imprisoned. I got some information from them and started preparing my script. I have also added many fictional incidents in the script as Kashmir has always been in controversies with Afzal. As a responsible writer, I also had to deal with the challenge that the film should stay away from controversies, although people deliberately added such spices to make the film more interesting.

     

    I always try to be more than a writer for my film. I also participate in the production of the film, which includes casting, location, costumes, screening, editing etc. Everything goes through my eyes. The character of Afzal’s wife was very important in the film, and for this, I wanted a face who could do justice to it. My search was completed in the form of Dipika Chikkhalia.

     

    The hunt for Gaalib’s character in the film ends at Nikkhil Pitaley. The character demanded a silent and well-educated child who must face the scorn of society. Dipika Chikhalia was a household name and gathered fame as Sita in Ramanand Sagar’s Ramayana. It was contradictory for people to take up this news of her playing the role of a terrorist’s wife. It was feared that people would oppose it and did so when the news of the film came that she was becoming a wife of a terrorist in Gaalib. During that news breakout, we faced a lot of hatred and abuse from social media, and I became uncomfortable because before this, I had made a film on such great revolutionaries who had dedicated everything to the country, and I was always praised whether it was Lal Bahadur Shastri’s film in Jai Jawan Jai Kisan or Chapekar Brothers of Pune.

     

    Gaalib was like a biopic, but the topic was controversial. But I was sure my script would make people emotional. It is purely a film based on a mother-son relationship to awaken the love of the country. Like any other film, Gaalib is special to me as, as it is the beginning of a non-biographical movie journey of mine. Under the banner of Giriva Productions film Gaalib is produced by Ghanshyam Patel and co-written by Yashomati Devi.

    Mumbai, September 19: Shahid Khan, a talented filmmaker and writer, has released a wonderful short film based on the true story of an 11-year-old girl’s bravery, hard work, and drive to improve her siblings’ lives. This movie is based on a girl named Madhuri who was a beggar, but whose never-ending passion for dance made her a social media star overnight.

    A short glimpse of the movie

    It is a real-life story of a girl named Madhuri, the daughter of a father who is perpetually intoxicated. She has a brother and a sister. Her father used to beat all kids every day and spent all his earnings on buying himself liquor. This courageous and passionate young girl fought all odds to make things better for her brother and sister. For their survival, his father and all of their kids beg at traffic lights.

    But since the Almighty had other ideas for them, Madhuri’s passion and dancing abilities kept improving. She enhanced her skills and began moving closer to her objective with the help of Mahima, a dance institute trainer. She participates in a concert but is not chosen. But the clip of her dancing went online and became an instant hit, making her famous. In this tale, you’ll witness the power of social media, as well as the passion, commitment, and overnight life-changing events of a young girl. A heart-warming song in Salman Ali’s voice, this movie shares the pain and struggle of the girl with the audience on Zee Music. A song that would win your heart and inspire you to believe in yourself. This short film won 38 awards in various categories at various film festivals worldwide. This movie topic will work as the catalyst for significant changes in everyone’s lives.

    In his statement, Shahid Khan expressed deep satisfaction with this content. “We did deep research on beggars for an entire year and realised that this is the story of 98% of Indian street sellers and beggars. However, only a select handful have what it takes to trample over the conventions that stand in their way,” Shahid said.

    The acting industry is brimming with amazing talents that are always ready to share with people unbelievable tales that, in addition to providing entertainment, knowingly or unknowingly improve their lives. Shahid Khan, the film’s director, is one such person. He was so inspired by this girl’s success that he decided to tell the audience about her journey. She grew so much in life as a result of the challenges she overcame, her early experiences, and her enthusiasm for accomplishing great things. He enrolled himself at one of Asia’s top film schools but had to discontinue his studies due to some financial difficulties. If you want to learn more about him, you can follow him on different social media sites. You can watch his incredible and inspiring film on MX Player and Disney Hotstar. It’s releasing soon. Shahid Khan told us that he is going to mesmerise us by producing and directing his new series on a big OTT platform named Sarpanch Sahab

  • Dr Bollywood to star with Lokesh Kumari, not Jasleen, in music video Javeeda

    Dr Bollywood to star with Lokesh Kumari, not Jasleen, in music video Javeeda

    Read Time:3 Minute, 24 Second

    Dr Bollywood Abhinit Gupta with Bigg Boss contestant Lokesh Kumari Sharma in stills from the music video Javeeda to be released on Zee Music

    The upcoming Javeeda music video is a mix of innocence combined with the beauty of Kashmir, synchronized to create the story of the charming lovers it narrates.

    September 19: Not long ago, we’d heard that Bigg Boss contestant Jasleen Matharu (who created fireworks in BB with her guru Ghazal Samrat Anup Jalota) was dating actor Abhinit Gupta, popularly known as Dr Bollywood. Hailing from Bhopal, Abhinit is a renowned cosmetologist and trichologist and also famous as Bollywood’s anti-aging expert.

    Abhinit and Jasleen were known to have a lil whirlwind romance for a couple of months, but then had a breakup. So it may not be much of a surprise that the gal who is going to play Abhinit’s love interest in his next music video titled Javeeda (meaning eternal), is not Jasleen. But the big revelation is that Abhinit’s co-star in the video is actually another Bigg Boss contestant, Lokesh Kumari Sharma.

    To be released on Zee Music in a few days, the song is written by Sahil Fatehpuri and has soulful music by Avik Dojan Chatterjee, who has also sung the number with high-pitched fervour.

    Directed by Rufy Khan, who has won several awards, including one from the New York Peace International Film Festival, Javeeda is shot in Kashmir, where the director also hails from.

    According to a report in News Features, Rufy informs, “The video is a mix of innocence combined with the beauty of Srinagar, synchronized to create the story of the charming lovers it narrates. The lush green valley tapered with snow creates a breath-taking backdrop, normally only seen in big budget Bollywood movies.”

    When asked about Dr Abhinit having dated Jasleen in the past and now working with Lokesh Kumari, Rufy smiles and says, “Its only a coincidence that both Jasleen and Lokesh have been in Bigg Boss. But yes, come to think of it, Abhinit Gupta is now sandwiched between a Bigg Boss past and present; real and reel life.”

    Actor Abhinit says, “This video happened to me at a time when I was going through a situation in my life.” Without letting us in on what mysterious ‘situation’ he is talking about, he adds, “The video and the shoot in Kashmir soothed my heart and gave me peace of mind.”

    Putting in a special word for Rufy and Lokesh Kumari, the actor adds, “Rufy is a very artistic and perceptive director and has done a great job on the video, while Lokesh Kumari has been an extremely professional and talented actress to work with.”

    Word has it that the Bigg Boss-contestant-turned-actress has undergone a complete makeover for the video and looks stunning in Javeeda. “That’s true,” admits Abhinit, but says that director Rufy has asked him to keep that part under wraps for the moment. “So I won’t talk about it till the video is released. All I’ll say is that her new glam avatar will completely surprise her fans and everyone who has seen her in Bigg Boss. She is totally a new package in the project,” remarks Abhinit.

    For the record, Dr Abhinit Gupta is no ordinary guy. He is a super achiever, having won many awards for his medical and acting achievements and also for exemplary work in social welfare. In fact, he’s been awarded by the who’s who of India, including former President Pranab Mukherjee, Former Vice President of India Venkaiah Naidu, Governor of Maharashtra Bhagat Singh Koshyari, Member of Parliament Shashi Tharoor and Bollywood actresses Madhuri Dixit and Karisma Kapoor.

    Roy Kapur Films to bring Pan Nalin’s internationally acclaimed Last Film Show to Indian cinemas

    Read Time:5 Minute, 1 Second

    Siddharth Roy Kapur’s Roy Kapur Films is all set to bring Last Film Show (Chhello Show), Pan Nalin’s poignant ode to celluloid dreams, back home to audiences in India. The Gujarati-language coming-of-age drama has captured the hearts of critics and audiences across the world and will now release in theatres in Gujarat and on select screens across the country on 14th October 2022. The film is produced by Roy Kapur Films, Jugaad Motion Pictures, Monsoon Films, Chhello Show LLP, and Marc Duale.

    Inspired by director Pan Nalin’s own memories of falling in love with movies as a child in rural Gujarat, Last Film Show (Chhello Show) is set at the cusp of the digital revolution and follows a nine-year-old boy ensnared by the magic and science of light and shadow that lies behind celluloid film projection. Manoeuvring through both social pressures and economic precarity, he pursues his passion for the “film show” with single-minded devotion, oblivious to the technological upheaval that is hurtling towards him. It is an authentic, organic, and emotionally charged drama set around films, food, and friends.

    Last Film Show (Chhello Show) had its world premiere as the opening film at Robert DeNiro’s Tribeca Film Festival and has won multiple awards across various international film festivals, including the Golden Spike at the 66th Valladolid Film Festival in Spain, where it also enjoyed commercial success during its theatrical run.

    Director Pan Nalin’s oeuvre includes award-winning films like Samsara, Valley of Flowers, and Angry Indian Goddesses, which have been successful with both festival and general audiences. He has recently been invited to join the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences in its prestigious Directors Branch.

    Producer Siddharth Roy Kapur says, “We are incredibly excited to embark upon this exciting association with Pan Nalin and Dheer Momaya to bring Indian audiences the wonderful Last Film Show (Chhello Show), a film that celebrates the magic and wonder of cinema and the theatrical experience. There could not be a more apt time for this film to release when cinema-going around the world has been disrupted by a pandemic and audiences need to be reminded anew of the first time they fell in love with the experience of watching a movie in a darkened cinema hall. It is a matter of pride that such a powerful work of art has come out of India, and we are sure that audiences in India will fall in love with it, just as they have all around the world.”

    Director Pan Nalin added, “We are thrilled to collaborate on this film with a producer I really admire, Siddharth Roy Kapur. Sid has proved his passion and penchant for producing elevated entertainment, and with his help, we are looking forward to entertaining Indian spectators with our labour of love Last Film Show (Chhello Show). Our film has been receiving a lot of love from spectators across the world, and with Roy Kapur Films’ support, we are aiming to give it a good release in my home state of Gujarat and the rest of India. I am also excited that the India release will coincide with its theatrical release in the USA, Italy, and Japan.”

    Producer Dheer Momaya of Jugaad Motion Pictures says, “Over the past few months, I’ve had the privilege of observing Indian and international audiences laugh, cry, whistle, and clap in cinema halls while watching the film. The overwhelming response has further built my confidence that our local film cuts across cultures, languages, and age groups from eight to eighty. The unanimous and mouth-watering demand for Kathiawari delicacies after the screenings is always funny, so much so that our Italian and Japanese distributors have requested a recipe book which they would make available for their audiences.”

    Samuel Goldwyn Films and Orange Studio serve as international distributors for the U.S. and European markets, respectively. Meanwhile, legendary Shochiku Studios serves as the Japanese distributor, while the esteemed Medusa will bring Last Film Show (Chhello Show) to Italian cinemas.

  • Meet Gurpreet Chattha – The Rising Punjabi Singer Who Believes In The Saying My Voice Is My Identity

    Meet Gurpreet Chattha – The Rising Punjabi Singer Who Believes In The Saying My Voice Is My Identity

    Read Time:3 Minute, 0 Second

    September 19: Those singers who are determined to make it big with their singing skills and potential cannot be tamed from achieving inevitable success. There are very few musicians who make a name for themselves among the top musicians in the Indian Punjabi music industry with their debut music. One such name that has been ringing in the ear of Punjabi audiences and made a place for his music in the hearts of his audiences is Gurpreet Chattha.

    Born to a Jatt Sikh family in the village of Dharamgarh District Sangrur, Punjab, Gurpreet Chattha, the rising Punjabi singer, lyricist, composer, and actor of Indian Punjabi origin strongly believes in the saying, ‘My voice is my identity.’ Living true to these words to this very day, this popular Punjabi soulful singer and heartthrob rose to fame with his hit Punjabi track with Sony Music, ‘Guzaara’, in 2014.

    When asked about his successful music career in the global Punjabi music industry, here’s what he said, “Artists never grow on trees. However, for me, the journey has been tremendously fair in the music industry of late. At the end of the day, I am only here to entertain my audience with my music notes and passionate compositions until my last breath. Rab Rakha!”

    Despite lacking the support of a Godfather in the Indian Punjabi music industry, Gurpreet gained a lot of appreciation for his commendable music composition, lyrics, and video production for the ‘Guzaara’ song with Sony Music. This was also his debut song in 2014. During the same year, he bagged two nominations for ‘Guzaara’ at the most prestigious awards ceremony of the Punjabi music industry, ‘PTC Awards’. He was nominated for the ‘Best Debut Vocalist Award’ (Male) and the ‘Most Romantic Ballad Of The Year Award’. This song also helped him earn a good deal of money through its caller tune downloads.
