Classic Bollywood songs teleport us to a different time and era, kicking in nostalgia and flood of emotions. It is to this day that their charm and melody mesmerizes us. India, being a culture of song and dance, we have music for every occasion and celebration.

The recent trend of rendition of those old classics into covers is a great way to introduce the millennial generation to the treasure of the old world. The melody, music and lyrics all fit in a perfect symphony, creating magic onscreen.

To relive those magical moments, we bring you a list of some beautiful covers of those classic hits.

As Barack Obama said, “In the 21st century, the best anti-poverty program around is a world-class education.”

There are numerous examples of great people, who broke the shackles of poverty with the help of education. But, there are only a few who dedicate their lives for enriching the lives of others. Mr. Anand Kumar of the Super 30 is one such man.

A highly distinguished educationalist and a mathematician, he hails from Patna, Bihar. He is recognized for his incredible initiative ‘Super 30’, where he coaches students from underprivileged backgrounds for the entrance exams of IITs, for free.

The endurance, struggle and patience throughout his journey have been beautifully portrayed by Hrithik Roshan in an upcoming film titled ‘Super 30’. Showcasing the remarkable story of Mr. Anand Kumar, the film conveys the message that even one person can make a difference in the world.

Theatre is the art of beholding reality through performances, through stories. The ability of a breathtaking performance to move us to a different dimension and give us subtle, yet beautiful moments is indeed a thrilling experience.

With the aim of providing a similarly exciting experience to the audiences, Abhedya Artworks, A Theatre Troupe from Mumbai is touring 5 cities with two of their most celebrated Theatre Productions Resham and Javeda. Written and directed by Navaldeep Singh, both plays are unique and distinct from each other, ensuring its viewers’ diverse experiences in a single show.

On one hand, Javeda explores the theme of a forbidden love story between two individuals who defy all odds simply through the power of their love, while on the other Resham is a hilarious political satire featuring a rural village, with some delightfully sardonic commentary on the priorities of this nation’s government.

With an immensely talented cast and crew, Navaldeep’s Abhedya Artworks will begin its journey from Bangalore on 18th May with their first show at KEA Prabhath Rangamandira. They will then head to Gwalior, Delhi and Pune before they finally conclude the tour in Mumbai.

The show dates and timings are as follows
Bangalore- 18 May, 7:00 PM KEA Prabhath Rangamandira
Gwalior- 24 May, 7:30 PM Natya Mandir, Dal Bazaar
Delhi- 25 May 4:00 PM & 7 PM Akshara Theatre
Pune- 02 June, 7 PM Jyotsana Bhole Sabhagruha
Mumbai- 07 June, 7 PM Sathaye Auditorium, Vile Parle

Actress Madhuri Dixit Nene will be back on screen after four years, with a Marathi film. She shared the poster for Bucket List, calling it her first film in Marathi.

The poster shows her in a simple green sari with a big smile on her face. She stands against a list of words, which we assume are her roles in the movie: Housewife, Mother, Friend, Sister and another that reads something like ‘Founder.’

And here is the first look of my first #मराठी film
“बकेट लिस्ट “

Earlier, the makers had described the project as a slice-of-life film that revolves around the journey of self-realisation of a woman (Madhuri), with a dash of humour.

The film is being produced by Karan Johar, it has the large screen appeal and the feels found in all his movies. It has also been a long time since Renuka Shahane and Madhuri Dixit shared screen space. The last they shared screen space was in Hum Aapke Hain Kaun.

Ranbir Kapoor making a guest appearance in the film is an icing on the cake.

Cringe pop, the new vocabulary in the social media world, for videos that go viral for all the wrong reasons. Cringe pop is the sub-genre dealing with music. They are repulsive, yet viral. They annoy you, but you still want to watch them because the whole world is talking about them. When you click on the link, the next 15 minutes of your life is cringe-worthy. But, that does not stop you from sharing the videos on your timeline.

Music lovers might cringe at the thought, but ‘cringe-pop’ has emerged as the newest sensation.

Ajey Nagar aka CarryMinati recently made a sketch where he portrayed the story of a cringe pop artist. In the sketch, Ajay played the fictitious character, Yo Yo Bantai Rapper.

The sketch depicts the rejections, exploitation and challenges faced by Bantai Rapper at every stage of his struggle. Right from being rejected at various talent shows (which he rightly deserved) to being exploited and abused (the harsh reality), he has seen it all. However, the sustained passion for his work makes him an internet sensation, but for the wrong song. When he tried to rap for a social cause, it was given a cold acceptance by the audience. This made him realise that the such social content hardly gets an audience. So he continues with his random songs to gain popularity.
