Sajid KhanNew Delhi, Jun 21: After being tortured for 159 minutes with Sajid Khan's Humshakals, we appeal to the Censor Board of Film Certification to ban the director from making films.

Dear CBFC,

After watching Himmatwala and now Humshakals, in the larger interest of the Indian audience, I request you to ban Sajid Khan from trying his hands at making more films.

In case you have thankfully missed his latest film starring Saif Ali Khan, Riteish Deshmukh, Ram Kapoor, Esha Gupta, Bipasha Basu and Tamannah Bhatia, I rest my case with these five points:

1: You cannot be ignorant of the term 'comedy' when you claim to have paid tributes to comedy kings Kishore Kumar and Jim Carrey in your film. Sajid Khan commited the grave crime in Humshakals.

2: An overdose of stars (Bipasha, Saif) may ensure great opening, but it does not necessarily guarantee that you will be accepted as a filmmaker. The audience has triple dose of these stars but to only add to the sad heap of lame jokes being thrown at the audience. Sajid Khan's films are injurious to the mental health of the audience.

3: Sajid Khan tries to be intelligent and targets jokes at himself. He shows his own disaster - Himmatwala - as a weapon of torture. Unless he grows up enough as a filmmaker to get past that stage, that's never going to be funny.

4: Cocaine and vodka ke paranthe. Prince Charles speaking as well as understanding Marathi, Hindi and just about any language you want! Playing with the ECG machine brings the father back from coma, and sends him back again. If anyone (Sajid Khan) thinks that is funny, he should be jailed and not allowed to roam free and crack pathetic jokes at people.

5: Tamanna: Aap bahut witty hain

Saif: Aur aap Churchgate.

And adds, "Witty, VT, Churchgate," in case you did not get it.

Sir, we are not alone in seeking your assistance in this matter. Here's what other people have said about the above matter:

A comment on our website read: RGV's AAG seems Mugal-E-Aazam in front of Hamshakls...

Another one said, "Dear Sajid, it was not a challenge when we said 'Nothing can be worse than Himmatwala'

Bengaluru, Jun 9: There’s no denying the fact that Sudeep is one of the most popular and sought-after names in Kannada cinema. The versatile actor has won the love of fans due to his ‘pan-India’ look and impressive selection of roles. A self-made star, he paid his dues before making it big in Sandalwood. The Bachchan actor had, some time ago, told Film Companion that his initial years in the industry were anything but easy.

 The mass hero revealed that his first two movies never saw the light of the day as they were abandoned midway. Following the setback, he finally made his Kannada debut with V Umakanth’s Thayavva and began a new chapter in life. Sadly, the film sank without a trace and was removed from theatres within three days of its release.

“My first two films did not see the light of the day while the third one did not see people,” he added.

Sudeep ultimately tasted success with the 2001 release Huchcha and the rest is history. Over the years, ‘Deepanna’ has starred in several commercially successful movies and proved that he is a certified ‘A-lister’. The star has also made an impact in non-Kannada movies like Rann and Eega, expanding his fanbase big time.

Coming to the present, Sudeep was last seen in the Bollywood biggie Dabangg 3 that did decent business at the box office. The actioner saw him share screen space with Salman Khan, giving fans a reason to rejoice. The cast included Arbaaz Khan and Sonakshi Sinha.

He will be turning his attention to the Kannada biggie Kotigobba 3, the third instalment of the Kotigobba series. The film, directed by Shiva Karthik, is one of the biggest movies of the year. It features Shraddha Das, Madonna Sabastian and Aftab Shivdasani in key roles.  He  will also be seen in the Anup Bhandari-directed Phantom.

Los Angeles, Jan 27: Lil Nas X, Lady Gaga, Beyonce and... Michelle Obama?

Yep.

The former first lady can now add Grammy winner to her resume, after snagging the award on music's biggest night for Best Spoken Word Album, for the audiobook of her memoir Becoming.

Her win on Sunday gives the Obama household its third Grammy: former president Barack Obama has already snagged two Grammys in the same category for his books.

She faced an eccentric group of rivals that included Michael Diamond and Adam Horovitz of the Beastie Boys for Beastie Boys Book and John Waters, the director-performer known for his transgressive cult films, for Mr. Know-It-All.

 Released in late 2018, Becoming saw the former first lady slam U.S. president Donald Trump for questioning her husband's citizenship and promoting the notion that he was born abroad.

"The whole [birther] thing was crazy and mean-spirited, of course, its underlying bigotry and xenophobia hardly concealed," Obama wrote.

America's first black first lady also dug into her personal life in her book, expounding on issues including a miscarriage, using in-vitro fertilization to conceive her daughters and marriage counseling.
