Why Stay Updated About Bollywood and The Latest Gadgets?

The times are evolving very swiftly and it becomes increasingly difficult to survive without the daily dose of knowledge about the current affairs around us. Gone are the days when we would opt to look into the newspaper and keep ourselves updated about the latest happenings. Internet has become the new media of news. It is powerful and effective; and moreover, however harsh it may sound, very vicious in its impact. While newspapers still serve in circulation and widespread of the relevant knowledge, internet is about the real-time updating of information, primarily due to its accessibility. So which are those prime categories of news which are almost always brimming with updated info and over-whelming circulation?

1. Bollywood Updates are arguably the most sought after news online, and the widespread freaking subscription of the present youth to various such entertainment news portals is clearly a stark indicator. Why do we need to be updated with the Obviously we do not want to be the laughing stock among group discussions in general about the latest tidbits of Bollywood. And one can always claim this genre to be the safest bet for initiating discussions with strangers, and may be, over a cup of coffee in this winter with the opposite sex, eh? (wink)
2. Latest Gadgets are again a very essential part of the traffic movement and domination on the net. While there was a time that branded one to a geek, if he/she was a gadget freak. But things changed rapidly and quite suddenly over the past, as it's customary to stay updated about the latest innovations. Why, you may still argue? Well, because innovation and development is one of the most important part of marketing a product and hence, more innovation better than before and consequently a better product at a better price on any day.

Now that you see my point on how important these things are for your healthy social existence and synchronization with the commons of the society, as an earnest helper I suggest you do take stock of the changes on a more routine basis and hence cement some credible respect in the GDs of daily life.

Bollywood Film Industry

Nowadays a tradition has become that all the people especially young generation have been effected greatly due to Bollywood films. This film industry has covered all aspects of our lives. We are all keen to become like these stars. We all want to be like them. This film industry has become very famous and we all have become habitual of watching its movies. Our elders are also with us in this race. This film industry is releasing so many movies every month. Stories and different types of current issue are shown in these. Some of which affect positively but some also affect negatively. This film industry is involving the stars of different religions, different countries now. In the beginning, this industry showed very good progress but in the middle, a time came when this industry faced many difficulties and reached near to flop. But the runners of this industry in which producers, directors and stars are included, did very hard work and pulled it up to the top. Now the time has come when Bollywood industry is touching the height of sky.

Overall if we see the economical status of India, then we shall come to know that great poverty is found here. But now this ratio of poverty is decreasing step by step. The reason behind this change is that Bollywood film industry is playing a strong role to decrease the poverty of India. A great part of the total income of Bollywood film industry is being deposited to the Government of India in the form of different taxes. A survey report of India tells us that up to 50% budget of India Government have been supported by this film industry. So in this way this industry is helping and playing a very important role to strengthen the economical position of India. Thus this film industry is very beneficial for its country and also working hard to raise its country to the top.

Although this industry is playing a good role yet this industry is leaving a harmful effect on our society. In some stories of the Bollywood films crimes occur, e.g. in one story bank robbery occurs, in 2nd murder occurs, and in 3rd kidnapping occurs; so these are all sources of earning money. Unemployed young generation which has been facing many problems due to lack of jobs, thinks about these plans and some also try to do it, but there is a great difference in reality and films. On the other hand romance and love stories are also affecting our young generation both boys and girls. They learn the ways of connectivity, raise their confidence and see dreams to enjoy a very easy and happy life. Another great effect is that of fashion, all the up coming movies contain vulgar type of dressing and extreme level of fashion. So in this way Bollywood film industry is affecting negatively. There is a need to improve their movies to affect positively on the thinking of our young generation so that they may become great thinkers.

Amitabh and Sridevi Pair Up For a Movie

Legendary Bollywood actors Amtabh Bachchan and Sridevi have paired up again, to star in Balki's next movie named 'Big B'. Their pairing up come s a brilliant news for all bollywood fans, as the year 2010 has been a very bad yaer for bollywood movies. Although no news has been announced related to the movie, i.e., plot other starcast etc. They starred together last in the movie 'Khuda Gawah' which was a Bollywood super hit. Sridevi began acting in Bollywood movies in the year 1967 as a child, and was last seen in the 2004 movie 'Meri Biwi Ka Jawab Nahin', 5 years after her previous movie in 1999. She left acting after marrying producer Boney Kapoor. Amitabh Bachchan on the other hand has been acting in Bollywood since 1969 movie 'Saat Hindustani'. To sum it up these two bollywood legendds are probably the most experienced bollywood stars in the actors and actresses category. This also gives a strong credibility to their upcoming movie, who have also given a lot of superhits to bollywood cinema over the years.

The two legends have given us some superhit movies in the past, and their coming back together in a movie is a sizzling news for the Industry. Other than the fact that the movie is being made by Balki, the director of 'Cheeni Kum' and 'Paa', and the fact that this upcoming Bollywood movie will be named 'Big B', nothing more has been revelead. All luck to Amitabh and Sridevi duo on their comeback to hindi cinema.

Asian Women and Bollywood Oppression

The women in Bollywood do not have the same independence and recognition that the actresses in Hollywood have. In many ways, Bollywood actresses are still oppressed, even in their privileged world.

There are film industries around the world, but none are closer than producing many Bollywood films in Mumbai, India. Unofficially known as the "dream factory" by most in and out of Bollywood industry, it is an industry that produces more than 900 feature films during a given year. Most of these films come, against only a handful of different plots, with the main theme of a young man and woman. There have always moral values of family and traditions to be included in these plots, and many times a woman to be saved. These are the women of Bollywood that I chose for my main objective of this document.

Bollywood is an industry-based major with many leading men like Amitabh Bachchan and Shahrukh Khan. These men and a handful of other well-knowns pay almost literally to monopolize the film industry Bollywood. They are the "stars" of Bollywood. The women of Bollywood have been much harder to succeed in making large to transport their reputation over the years a long-term career. There is always a worry increasingly older and being pushed by the young charges who are constantly introduced into the Bollywood industry and the fact Bollywood still being an industry dominated by men.

In the book "May you be the mother of a hundred Sons" by Elisabeth Bumiller, three major Bollywood women open up to reveal their own personal experiences Bollywood, and that there is no such thing as a personal life when the spot of any kind, particularly in Bollywood, we all. In addition, a Bollywood "do everything" on the stars is almost more important than their film failures and successes. This seems to be particularly true in Mumbai and industry Bollywood.

During the late 80's and early 90's, three of the most popular actresses in Bollywood were Rekha, Dimple, and Sredevi. But there are also a handful of others who danced in and out of the star when they were on a role in the success of Bollywood. Smita Patil is a success of these actresses. In an interview with Elizabeth Bumiller, Smita talking about it is really to be an actress in Bollywood, professionally and personally. "Women who work in this sector did not have time for any type of normal life," she said. "You are working ten or twelve hours a day with different men all the time."You are constantly asked to emote, and it tends to become a high-strung emotionally existence, which leads to your commitments. The line is very thin."

The Indian Capital Market and Sensex

It has been over 135 years that the journey of the Indian capital market started with stock broking activities commenced by the BSE (Bombay Stock Exchange). And the BSE Sensex, the value-weighted index comprising of 30 largest and most actively traded stocks started in the New Year of 1986. If you are investing in a BSE stock, you will be required to watch the Sensex index often. There are financial news portals that display the latest Sensex index besides also carrying detailed reports.

The Sensex is today considered the pulse of the Indian capital market not to mention about nifty the other principal index, considered the heart. The calculation of Sensex index involves use of a number called the index divisor. This number is used to divide the free float market capitalization of the 30 companies in the index. Comparing of the Sensex index over time is made possible by this divisor besides also substituting as the adjustment point for all index adjustments arising out of replacement of scrips, corporate actions, and related paraphernalia. The original base period value of the Sensex is linked by this divisor.

What is free float? The phrase may seem a new terminology for the novice investor, though he/she may know how to read the BSE Sensex. It is advisable that as beginners, venture into stock trading only once you are equipped with the basics of the market and once you familiarize yourself with all related terminologies. Well, free float refers to shares that are readily available for trading in the market. Generally, determination of market capitalization of a particular company happens with the multiplication of the price of its stock with the number of shares issued by it. And it is this market capitalization multiplied by a free float factor used to find out the free float market capitalization.

Since the last two decades, the Sensex index has increased by over ten times from June 1990 to the present. There is a governing authority of the BSE to monitor its activities so that the Sensex reflects only current market situations.

The Volatility of the BSE Market

With investors now seeking returns in emerging economies and with India emerging as the second fastest developing economy in the world, foreign investors' count has increased like never before. FIIs looking for investment opportunities find the Indian markets very lucrative; this is evident in the inflow of foreign funds resulting in the sensex touching 20,893 points, its highest ever, surpassing the earlier highest close of 20,873 points recorded on January 8, 2008. Well, the regular uptrend is not what the sensex index always displays. After much hype being created, the BSE sensex declined sharply once again by 848 points. This temporary fall is because of all-round selling led by realty, banking, PSU and metal sectors owing to weak industrial output data.

Another reason of the BSE sensex slide is because of a plunge in the Chinese market owing to growing conjecture of yet another interest rate hike by its apex bank. If demand in China loosens, then Asian exports including Indian exports are expected to suffer, thus resulting in the sensex downslide. There are more reasons put forward by market analysts for the fall of the sensex index. Another group claims it to be a knee-jerk reaction to the behavior of markets abroad.

Volatility rules every now and then; but yes, the downtrend witnessed is negligible. It is natural for novice investors to panic and get excited with the rise and fall of the BSE sensex. Wise and expert investors do not panic. The temporary downslide is because of short term market factors. Yes, market analysts have also predicted of the sensex index to cross the all time high recently exhibited in no time.

If you read financial news, and compare the industrial growth trend compared to a year ago, you will find a great difference. The present market is surely at an upscale. During September 2009, slowdown was 8.2 per cent and in the current September, it is 4.4 per cent.

Follow set rules based on the market trends. As novice investors, you should be able to endure well enough the amount of loss incurred.

Modeling - A platform for Bollywood

What do Aishwarya Rai, Juhi Chawla, Arjun Rampal ,Sushmita Sen, Diya Mirza, Lara Dutta, Bipasha Basu, Dino Morea, Shiny Ahuja, John Abraham, Celina Jailtley and Priyanka Chopra have in common apart from their killer looks and awesome bodies? Yes, they shared one platform namely, modeling. These model turned actors were highly successful in modeling before stepping into the world of bollywood. Many actors believe that modeling gives them a stable foundation to be recognized before getting their first break in bollywood. Most of these stars believed that modeling is a stepping stone to bollywood. Without entering into the world of modeling, their life would take a very different turn by making their entry into bollywood more difficult and inaccessible.

Most model turned actors stepped into modeling by catching our attention in beauty pageants. Who can forget Sushmita Sen and Aishwarya Rai sashay down the ramp after winning their titles? No one. These beauty queens inspired millions of Indians who watched them and wanted to be like them in every manner. Young girls desired to look like them and take part in these beauty pageants. Mothers of teenaged daughters would pester their kids to dress well and push them forward for beauty pageants. With the advent of these exotic beauties,

w:st="on">India was in for a beauty revolution. These strong willed beauty queens had no looking back . They reached their destination - Bollywood in no time.

With this instance, many young aspiring actors looked up to their role models to pursue their much sought after bollywood dream. Modeling is an arena more to do with beautiful personalities than fashion per say. No one is throwing dust one anyone's eyes here, as it is a well known fact that, clothes look good on a beautiful body rather than on someone ill-proportionate. Beauty is all over the place and looking uniquely gorgeous is the mantra for models. These stars surely had what it took to be a Hindi film star and yes, they did it with style.

It is well known preconceived notion that models can't act. There were many instances when models were criticized heavily and were shown the exit. However, over a period of failures, there were many of these same models who proved critics wrong. For instance, Aishwarya Rai was considered plasticky in her debut film Aur Pyar Ho Gaya but with time, she set by bollywood by storm in her stellar performances in Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam and Devdas. John Abraham is another actor who has also won several accolades in his films like Jism, Dhoom and Taxi no.9211. Athough Shiny Ahuja is just 2 films old, his mind blowing performance in Hazaaron Khwaishye Aisi and Gangster has won him millions of fans.

Many young and upcoming actors like Samir Dattani believe that modeling provides them easy entry to Bollywood. Daisy Boppana of Garam Masala fame have been cast with extremely successful actors like Akshay Kumar and John Abraham. Katrina Kaif famous for ads campaigns like Seagram's, Lakme and Dyna have acted in films like Maine Pyar Kyun Kiya and Humko Deewana Kar Gaye cast opposite Salman Khan and Akshay Kumar. Models like Deepika Padukone and Shivani Kapur are the new entrants to Bollywood after a successful stint in modeling? What lies ahead, only time will tell. Watch this space for more.

Bollywood Stars Rumors and Facts

The world is a global marketplace and where once India was faced with watching Hollywood reruns, Bollywood is now one of the largest most powerful motion picture production facilities in the world.

Statistics: 1000 Hindi-language films are produced every year. Ticket sales exceed 3.6 billion.

Hollywood has its stars, so too does Bollywood and while the world's tabloids may focus on Britney Spears, Yana Gupta and Abhay Deol are not far behind with a relationship that was secret, but now has been made public.

Randeep Hooda and Sushmita Sen are rumored to be having secret meetings on horseback, but the rumors were denied... "Where do you hear all this? Its complete rubbish," laughs Sushmita. Aishwarya Rai has no intentions of quitting movies simply because she is married; and is paired with Gerard Depardieu in the film Asterix at the Olympic Games.

Another of Bollywood's babes Monalisa (real name Antara Biswas) continues to draw attention and gasps from men (and some women) across India as she posses in revealing photographs and videos. Talking of photoshoots Gauri Khan graces the cover of US magazine "Vogue" and tells all in an expo'se.

Heartbreakers John Abraham and Bipasha Basu have exchanged rings and will be married soon. Bollywood may never be the same with these eligible Bollywood stars getting hitched.

Sonali Kulkarni, breaks her silence and tells the world about her transparent dress, claiming she wears it all the time and it was merely a trick of the light. As for this reporter, I plan to travel with a flash light from now on.

Bollywood news, much like Hollywood loves to have a glimpse into the minds, hearts and lives of their stars. It is sometimes amazing that a movie star is simply a person; living life just like the rest of us.

Chhote Nawab has committed his heart to Kareena Kapoor. While there is rumor of trouble, Chhote says, "A lot of people say a lot of things. She's the most wonderful person I know".

Bollywood is not above capitalizing on the fact their actors and actresses often undertake new, challenging and often controversial roles. Mallika Sherawat is being considered by director Kundan Shah's for the role of a prostitute-turned-politician in his new film. Rakesh Roshan has deprived Deepika Padukone of fame and fortune and the Bollywood "A list", turning her down for consideration in the new film staring Hrithik Roshan.

Bollywood may play second to Hollywood, but those times may soon change if writer's strikes and inflated production continue to drive producers away from the golden shores of LA. Bollywood is here to stay and Britney Spears may soon be calling. Bollywood has its own internationally known stars such as

Fact or Fiction: Bollywood is a real city in India? Bollywood is not an actual place; it was created in the minds of the press. (Bombay and Hollywood) And while there are many critics, stating this makes us appear as second cousins to Hollywood; it is a name that seems destined to remain.

Why Does Bollywood Need to Copy Hollywood?

Bollywood - The common name for the Indian (Hindi) film industry apes Hollywood in so many different ways. However, the worst of them is the blatant plagiarizing that constantly takes place in B-wood.

There is definitely no shortage of money or creativity in Bollywood, still the need to copy everything that Hollywood does is immense. The storylines and scripts are often copied (mostly without giving due credit to the original). Some of the examples here include the Bollywood movie "Murder" which was largely a copy of "Unfaithful", "Main Aisa Kyon Hoon" which was a near-copy of "I am Sam", "Kyonki Main Jhoot Nahin Bolta" which was a copy of "Liar-Liar", and "Partner" which was a clone of "Hitch" and this is just the tip of the iceberg. Apparently, the directors and producers like to take the easier and shorter route, than to go all the length of conceptualizing, developing a story, scripting it and developing the characters before actually making the movie. This eases the job for them in 2 ways:

- First, the obvious one is that they don't have to rack their brains trying to look for sellable plots.

- Secondly, they spend way less in conceptualizing and more in the actual end product, making their work less tedious and their projected profits higher.

This playing safe, however takes a toll on the people who are really creative. That is because they find fewer buyers who are willing to risk money on new and untested stories. Also, this brings to the fore the tendency to blatantly plagiarize somebody else's work without giving ANY credit whatsoever to the owner.

There are some exceptions, however to this rule. A recent example here is the case where the famous emotional drama "Stepmom" (starring Julia Roberts) was adapted into the movie "We Are Family". The opening credits specifically mentioned that the movie's story was taken from Stepmom. In this case, the copying cannot be called "plagiarizing", rather it is more of an adaptation or can be said to be "inspired from" the original... or maybe a "remake".

As long as the inspiration is only limited to getting ideas and does not extend to the point of blatantly copying stuff, it is very much acceptable. However, if Bollywood keeps on aping Hollywood like the way it is doing right now, then we can safely say that the future of B-wood is not very bright. Come on, guys let's give the next generation a reason to be proud of us. Let's create something that others would want to copy from us and not the other way around.

Relying on Stock Market News of a News Portal

Are you driven by the 'get rich quick' myth? Do not get into the trap. It is easy to lose but difficult to win. You will need enough patience and require adequate knowledge to make a mark in the stock market. Once you are confident and have set goals with the right strategies and once you are able to learn the intricacies of the trade, only then can you venture for good returns. You should be able to exactly find out key market information or market statistics from the live stock news.

For many novice investors, the various data, charts, and lists exhibited in the live stocks seem a bundle of confusion. You need to equip yourself with the power of deciphering the right stock recommendations. You may come across a number of stock recommendations in the live stock news but it is choosing potential stocks that matters.

How important is stock info towards the achievement of your trading goals? The importance cannot be measured because if you are not informed of what is happening in the market, about market fluctuations, about the movement of stock prices, about which sector is gaining, and related paraphernalia, you will stay far behind. It is only market news that will keep you updated with the latest stock trends. Now, the question is where can you read or view relevant stock market news that which carries detailed information about every incident about the stock.

Obviously it is a news portal. You cannot rely on newspapers because up-to-the-minute market news cannot be published; you do get an overview of the last day's or last week's performance of the market in the print media. You can rely a bit on television stock market news but you may not get detailed information of what exactly you want as most news items are covered in a matter of half an hour or an hour. It is only a news portal, preferably a stock news portal that will well serve your purpose. Not all news portals can satisfy your craving for information. Conduct a research and choose a platform that broadcasts news faster than other platforms. Once you are able to find it, you can always log in to that particular news portal any time of the day or night as per your convenience from the comfort of your space.

On Commodity News

Looking for a platform where you can read the latest commodity market news and take a glimpse of the latest market prices? There are various mediums right from stock broking portals, news portals to television news channels, radio and the print media. There is a vast difference between listening and viewing commodity news at a television channel and online. You cannot read or get a detailed report of the relevant news at a television news channel but at a news portal, one that has a rapport of publishing the A-Z of commodity news, you can read a particular news item as many numbers of times you want. In radio channels dedicated to commodity market news, you can listen only at the scheduled time. And, you cannot view the up-to-the-minute news or latest market prices on print.

No matter where you are whether you are on the move or in your office or at home, a laptop or computer with internet connection will well serve your thirst for latest news and updates about the commodity market and on latest market prices. Coming across tips is common at an online portal. And if you happen to be a registered paid member, you may well get calls customized to your trade such as agri calls, bullion plus calls and the like that are near to accurate. One point to be noted here is that you cannot just blindly follow the commodity tips or calls provided.

Easy Bachelor Party Planning Tips

Today, if you say bachelor party, almost everyone thinks the same thing - lots of alcohol, barely clad women and lots of wild exploits. This type of bachelor party still seems high on many men's list of a great bachelor party even though it does present some problems, not only for the next day (traditionally the wedding day) but also with the future wife.

There are few women who appreciate their future husband dancing around with a semi-nude woman who has been hired to make this a "special" night for him. They also don't want to worry whether the groom-to-be is going to be in any shape to make it to the ceremony much less walk down the isle. This is her special day and to look into a hung-over groom eyes and say "I do" is not part of the wonderful day she had planned.

If you are doing the bachelor party planning, for future happiness of both the bride and groom, plan carefully. You do not want to cause any problems between the future husband and wife and you want to make sure your party guests have a great time but stay safe as well.

There are many different types of bachelor parties today. Many find that getting the guys together for a sporting event, planning an outdoor fun such as water rafting or skiing, or paintball is more their style. Others find poker night or an evening at an arcade to their liking.

Whatever type of party you plan, remember:

• Keep the groom's likes and dislikes in mind. After all, this party is for HIM.
• It is up to you and the other groomsmen to pay for all the festivities. The groom should not be asked to pay for anything that evening.
• Only those invited to the wedding should be asked to the bachelor party.

And finally a few tips:

• Plan the bachelor party a week before the wedding. That way, the groom (and the rest of the male wedding party) will be well rested for the ceremony.
• Whatever type of party you plan or wherever you plan on hosting it, be sure there is plenty of food and drink available.
• If alcohol is involved, make arrangements for everyone to have a ride home. Doing this will allow all the guests to party as long as they want and still get home safely.
• If your party is at a place that serves alcohol, be sure that everyone has proper ID. It would be a shame someone would have to leave, and possibly miss most of the party, due to not having this with him.

ShahRukh Khan - King Of Smoking!

A humble public letter to Shakrukh Khan, famous and popular Indian Bollywood film star, and the king of smokers:

Bollywood is a Big show Business that goes beyond the boundary of India. Every year thousands of Indian films are released and watched by millions in the world. Bollywood stars are famous and popular around the world. Their fanbase has no limit: from young babies, young children, teenagers, young people to adults and old people. These include non Indian speakers too.

Many fans watch the films of their favorite stars over and over again and wait desperately to watch their new releases. They will pay the price and travel to any destination and will talk about the film for months. They will even memorise the lyrics of the songs and the line of the dialogues delivered by the actor. Among the most popular film stars is Shahrukh Khan.

Shahrukh Khan loves films, work, children, people, his wife, his children, his films, his performance and his family. He also loves smoking. Heavy smoking. He loves every one except himself, his health and the young children who are his fans.

The popularity of Shahrukh khan is unlimited of course, due to his dedication and his work, his commitments and his gift of God. He can make people laugh, smile, cry, be happy, but he can also make them be ill and kill. Shahrukh khan is very well spoken, very mature, and a very understanding person. He is well educated and he can speak the dialogue in one take. He can can read anything written in English, that is apart form the warning on cigarette packages.

Government Health department officials fully agree with all the research and evidence provided by health expertise, and around the world every cigarette packet has a warning about the risk and effects of smoking. Government bodies around the world spend fortunes for public health on advertisements of warnings against smoking, yet the message has not reached to Shahrukh khan.

In many films the government has restricted smoking. No matter how important your character in the film, showing smoking cigarettes is prohibited, in public places smoking is prohibited and selling cigarettes to children under the age of sixteen has been very much prohibited.

We Asians, love Bollywood. We spend many hours watching Indian television channels such as Star Plus, Star News, Colors, Sony TV, IPL cricket, film star interviews, the making of films, day with the film stars and many more programmes on television, played in the weekends and evenings, and our children watch these with us too.

My young grandson is 10 years of age and he is fan of Shahrukh Khan. He watch all of those programmes related to or focused on Shahrukh Khan. He also acts out the dialogue he speaks, and, like many young children in the world, he watches him smoke. When then see Shahrukh Khan, their idol, smoking publicly... what do you expect them to do? Do you give warnings that these images will harm your body and your health? Do you have any answers as to why you are smoking? How would you justify your actions?

You can smoke millions of cigarettes a day. I don't care. You can do to yourself whatever you want to do. You can avoid all those warnings if you want, but if you care for the children of other people, and if you want to be the super hero, then stop the smoking engine. Whenever you talk, the exhaust from your mouth damages the environment and other children's health. So please do my children a favour and stop smoking in public places. Your job is to entertain children, not to kill them.

I love your title of King of Bollywood... but your smoking in public places...? You are more like the King of Smokers.
