New Delhi, March 19 (Ians) Right-handed batter Robin Uthappa has revealed an interesting fact about Mahendra Singh Dhoni, saying that the former India captain is quite weird when it comes to eating.
Uthappa and Dhoni have known each other for two decades, with the former witnessing the latter’s meteoric rise from close quarters and fondly recalling the time they spent together.
“His simplicity is something that’s always been there and it’s something that hasn’t changed. He’s just as simple today as he was the first time I met him. Dhoni is the most uncomplicated person in the world,” Uthappa said in an episode of ‘My Time With Heroes’ on JioCinema.
The former India batter shared the story of meeting Dhoni for the first time in 2003.
“The first time I saw Ms was in 2003 at an India camp at Nca Bangalore. He was batting against Munaf Patel...

There are outstanding films. Then there is Dangal. A film so rich in the flavours of homegrown emotions you feel you are floating in a field of aromatic sensation for close to three hours without feeling manipulated. You come away from this experience so moved and so much wiser that you wonder why cinema can’t be so rewarding more often.
But then again, if every other film was a Dangal how would we know the difference?
There I go, raving about a film which, let me state right way, will be remembered by posterity as one of the landmarks of Indian cinema in the same breath as, say Mother India, Sholay or Lagaan. Yes, Dangal has that kind of an impact. Not because it has anything new to say. On the surface it is another...

“Dangal” is Disney India’s big Christmas bet, and the Aamir Khan wrestling drama starts strong. The characters are sketched with the kind of patience that can only come from a place of confidence. There are enough crowd-pleasing moments to fill an entire summer blockbuster. The soundtrack is brash and exhilarating; the songs here will dominate many workout playlists in the new year. The social commentary is not subtle, but it is forthright and consistent.
What a shame about that second half. It is rare that a film manages to undo so much of its groundwork so thoroughly in so short a span of time. The creative decisions made here amount to self-sabotage.

The film in question is titled Snafu and will also feature Manjot Singh alongwith Abhay. Sethu Sriram of Wanted and Omg Oh My God! fame was keen on signing Abhay since he knew that Abhay could pull this off well. After many readings, one hears that Abhay is convinced and pretty charged up about the role. For starters, 'Snafu' is term that has originated in the army, it means Situations Normal All F****ed Up.
In the film, Abhay will be essaying the character of Kabir Taneja, a young highflying corporate consultant in Mumbai mediating mega deals with most men with big money.
