Chaitanya: I am on my own artistic journey

Image
If the world is meant to be known, perceived, and observed in its rawest form, Chaitanya Tamhane’s craft of storytelling is the apt lens to do so. The filmmaker who earned rave reviews with the 2014 courtroom drama ‘Court’, is currently basking in the success of his latest creation ‘The Disciple’. The movie, which won the Best Screenplay award at the 77th Venice International Film Festival, was also the first Indian film to compete at Venice since Mira Nair’s ‘Monsoon Wedding’. Both ‘The Disciple’ and ‘Court’ have paved the road for independent cinema in a country where commercial content rules. In an exclusive chat with ETimes, Chaitanya speaks about his latest outing ‘The Disciple’, the thought process behind it, and what he learned from Alfonso Cuaron. Read on: ‘The Disciple’ is a very sensitively observed portrait of the compromises an artist makes in bridging the gap between traditional and contemporary. What was your creative process in approaching that subject? That’s true. I

Wait 6 weeks for surgery after Covid, says ICMR

Image
(This story originally appeared in on May 31, 2021) PUNE: Recovered Covid patients opting for non-urgent or elective surgeries are being asked by surgeons to go for repeat RT-PCR/antigen tests as part of pre-operative protocols. However, experts from Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) and the national task force for Covid-19 have advised against repeating Covid tests within 102 days of recovery, citing presence of “non-viable dead-virus particles” that stay in the body for a while. These virus remnants cannot transmit the illness but can cause a false positive test result. The experts said surgeons should consider performing a non-urgent surgery on a Covid-recovered patient only after six weeks of recovery to ensure faster healing and convalescence post-surgery. “At present, Covid reinfection is confirmed only after 102 days of diagnosis. So, retesting within this time frame is not advisable,” said infectious diseases expert Sanjay Pujari, a member of the task force. “Also,

Looks like the investigation in Sushant Singh Rajput’s death and consequent drug case has intensified. SSR’s house help Neeraj and cook Keshav Bachner are currently being questioned by the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB). The two were summoned a day after the arrest of Siddharth Pithani in the Sushant Singh Rajput drug case.

Actress Meera Chopra’s excitement after having been vaccinated for the Covid-19 virus was short-lived.

Today, on the occasion of Paresh’s birthday, ETimes got in touch with Suniel for an exclusive interview where he opened up about his long association with the senior actor, things he admires about him, their first meeting, and more. Excerpts… How would you describe Paresh Rawal as an actor and as a person? Paresh Rawal is one of the closest people to me in the industry. I have been associated with him in most of the films in my career. He is a phenomenal actor because of whom you start looking better on screen. He values relationships and strives to keep them too. Whether it is my co-star or for a film for my own production house, he is the first one who comes to my mind. That is the kind of bond that I have with him. As an actor, he is unbelievable. I feel ‘Hera Pheri’ worked because of his character of Babu bhai. Of course, both Sh

Parents’ body seeks rule to make balance sheets public

Image
Gurgaon: In wake of a recent judgment of the high court ordering private schools in Chandigarh to upload the income-expenditure balance sheets on their websites, the state parents’ body has written to the chief minister to bring in the same rule in the state by amending the Haryana Education Rules, 2003. Parents said schools have repeatedly cited the high court’s October 2020 order that allowed them to charge tuition fees if they are providing online classes. They, however, alleged that schools have wilfully chosen to ignore the directions of the court to submit balance sheets for the last seven weeks. “The issue of fees has resulted in a lack of trust between parents and private schools. Schools keep arguing that they are incurring almost the same expenditure as they were during pre-Covid times when physical classes were suspended. If that’s the case, there shouldn’t be any hesitancy in making their balance sheets public. It’s in the interest of both schools and the parents,” said

From IIT-Hyderabad, oral drug to treat black fungus

Image
The Indian Institute of Technology-Hyderabad has developed nano fibre-based, controlled-release oral tablets of amphotericin B (AmB) to treat post-Covid fungal infections. Researchers have kept the technology free of intellectual property rights and are looking for pharmaceutical partners who can take up mass-scale production. Currently, AmB is an injectible drug. In 2019, faculty members Saptarshi Majumdar and Chandra Shekhar Sharma from the department of chemical engineering had released a study that oral nanofibrous AmB can be effective to treat kala azar, a parasitic ailment that can cause fever, weight loss and swelling of the liver or the spleen. This was a first-ever attempt to fabricate nano fibrous oral tablets of amphotericin B for the potential cure of kala azar or leishmaniasis. Two years later, the researchers say they are confident the technology can be transferred to suitable pharma partners for large-scale production. At present, kala azar treatment is being used to

In an exclusive chat with ETimes, she looks back at her career choices, and jokes how she can now become a chef after spending a lot of time watching Gordon Ramsay’s cooking show during the lockdown. You mentioned you binge-watched Gordon Ramsay’s cooking shows. Do you cook some of his recipes? Not really, but sometimes I make pasta for my daughter and husband, and they love it. When I was going to get married, my mother told me that I should learn cooking since I was going to a Punjabi family who loves eating. So to keep her happy, I started taking a cooking class in Mumbai. After marriage, I was cooking different cuisines and my husband loved it. So much so, that poor thing weighed 90 kilos only after that (laughs). Post that, he made me stop cooking, telling me I can’t continue cooking, if I wanted him to lose w

Here’s why Salman Khan is suing KRK

Image
Kamaal R Khan recently tweeted that Salman Khan has sent him a defamation notice for his review of ‘Radhe: Your Most Wanted Bhai’. Now, DSK Legal who advocates for Salman Khan and Salman Khan Ventures, has released an official statement and clarified that the suit was filed because KRK has been ‘publishing and endorsing defamatory allegations, including that Salman Khan is corrupt, that he and his brand “Being Human” are involved in fraud’. The statement read, “Mr. Kamaal R Khan, the Defendant, has put out a series of tweets and videos alleging that Mr. Salman Khan has sued him for defamation because the Defendant reviewed the film, Radhe.
