Bade Miyan Chote Miyan Box Office Is Heading For A Disastrous Ending! (Photo Credit – IMDb)
Not a single person would have imagined that Bade Miyan Chote Miyan would meet a disastrous fate when it was announced that Ali Abbas Zafar was collaborating with Akshay Kumar for a massive action entertainer. I mean, what could go wrong when two of the biggest action stars from two different generations were collaborating on what was publicized as the costliest action film in India?
But now that the film has been bombed and it has been 17 days, it would be fair enough to analyze what exactly went wrong with the film. There was clearly no impact with Maidaan‘s Eid clash if one wants to blame that as the primary reason.
Bade Miyan Chote Miyan has collected almost 59 crore in 17 days, and the film might wrap up in the coming days at between 60 and 62 crore.

Actor Brent Spiner, who played the android Data on "Star Trek: The Next Generation," once called the role a double-edged sword. While playing Data brought Spiner a great deal of attention and fame, he also knew he would forever be associated with that one role. He once commented that he could go on to win an Academy Award, but that Data would still be listed first in his obituary. The associations that grow between "Star Trek" and its actors are unbreakable. Just ask William Shatner about it sometime.
Spiner has returned to "Star Trek" again and again, however, eventually playing seven different characters throughout the franchise: He played Data, Lore, B-4, Noonien Soong, Adam Soong, Altan Soong, and Arik Soong. Spiner has clearly made peace with his "Star Trek" associations and embraces them with enthusiasm. Most recently, Spiner appeared in the third season of "Star Trek: Picard," playing a very...

In the "Star Trek: The Next Generation" episode "Data's Day", it was revealed that Data (Brent Spiner) had acquired a pet cat. Likely looking through a database of popular pet names, Data chose the name "Spot" for his orange tabby. Spot was played by a series of cats over his tenure on "Star Trek," including Bud Monster, Brandy, Tyler, Spencer, and Zoe. In the episode "Genesis", Spot devolved into an iguana (don't ask), played by a reptile named Willie. Spot, previously referred to as "he" transformed into a female in "Genesis," likely because the show's writers wanted him to have kittens.
Spot appeared in eight episodes of "Next Generation," had a few scenes in both "Star Trek: Generations" and "Star Trek: Nemesis," and was resurrected for a dream sequence in an episode of "Star Trek: Picard." The cat actor for "Picard" seems to have wanted to remain uncredited. It was...

Filmmaker Rajkumar Santoshi has been sentenced to two years in jail and fined Rupees two crore by a local court in Gujarat’s Jamnagar over bounced cheques. The court has granted the filmmaker a 30-day stay to appeal the order. The incident revolves around a 2015 transaction where one Ashok Lal, the owner of Shreeji Shipping, provided Santoshi with one crore rupees to produce a film.
Reportedly Santoshi issued ten cheques of ten lakh rupees each to Lal as repayment for the loan. However, these cheques bounced subsequently. Despite Lal’s attempts to reach out to Santoshi, as reported in media, the filmmaker remained unavailable, leading Lal to file a case in court under the Negotiable Instruments Act.

Lal Salaam Box Office (India) Day 1 Prediction ( Photo Credit – Sun TV / YouTube )
Aishwarya Dhanush’s directorial Lal Salaam has opened with a poor response as it hit theatres today. Rajinikanth’s last movie, Jailer, was a massive one, but his immediate next release, Lal Salaam, has failed to roar. Read how much Lal Salaam is expected to earn on Day 1 at the Box office.
While many will argue that Lal Salaam is not an out-and-out Rajini film, the makers surely marketed it as the superstar’s. Rajinikanth plays a cameo but near full-length character. The movie stars Vishnu Vishal and Vikranth in pivotal roles.
According to Indian box office tracker Sacnilk, Lal Salaam is predicted to have an average first-day collection. The movie’s domestic Day 1 box office collection is expected to be around 4 crore. The film is getting mixed reviews from critics and audiences alike.

The writers of "Star Trek: The Next Generation" had a whole panoply of characters to work with, but they clearly liked Captain Picard (Patrick Stewart) and Lieutenant Commander Data (Brent Spiner) the best. Of the episodes that focus on single members of the ensemble, Picard and Data seemingly had the most, and were usually given stirringly dramatic stories and no small amount of screen time. Picard was an interesting character as he was stern and resolute, and audiences liked to see his unflappable integrity get tested. Data was an interesting character as he was an android aspiring to be more human, despite having no human emotions. Data looked at humanity objectively, and eager Trekkies likely constructed imaginary conversations in their heads as to how they would explain humanity to Data (should they ever meet him).
Spiner's challenge in playing Data was mustering up emotional moments from within the artificial brain of a machine person.

New Delhi, Aug 25 (Ians) Corneal tattooing offers an excellent solution to the people suffering from the end-stage opaque cornea and improves their aesthetic appearance, suggest eye specialists on Friday.
Corneal tattooing is done for people with ocular injuries that can benefit cosmetically from a tattoo to make them more emotionally confident.
The goal is to match the tattooed eye with the look of a normal eye.
More than 6.8 million people suffer from vision loss in one eye and roughly one million in both the eyes because of corneal diseases.
For common people, the opaque cornea is just a medical condition which makes the person blind from one or both the eyes while making them look a bit different.
However, for the people who suffer from corneal opacity, it is a part of their personality that deeply affects their day to day life.

In MemoriamSiddique and his partner Lal were really good with situational humour and made their funniest scenes without stereotyping, at no one's expense.SiddiqueEven though Malayalam filmmaker Siddique, who passed away on August 8, is remembered along with his partner Lal for the films they wrote and directed, the two of them had begun by writing stories that others directed. They contributed to one of the most celebrated films in Malayalam, Manichitrathazhu. They were really good with situational humour and made their funniest scenes without the usual stereotyping, at anyone's expense. Later when they split ways, Siddique continued directing comedies and slipped a few into other languages too. A listicle of his films wouldn't be complete without the early films he and Lal wrote for, and without his later stints in Tamil and Hindi.

By the time Jonathan Frakes directed the recent surprise release crossover episode of "Star Trek: Strange New Worlds," the actor was no stranger to stepping behind the camera for the sci-fi franchise. In fact, the actor best known for playing William T. Riker on "Star Trek: The Next Generation" has been directing episodes of "Star Trek" ever since 1990, when he helmed a season three episode of Tng in which Data (Brent Spiner) creates an android "child" called Lal.
In a wide-ranging retrospective with Variety, Frakes looked back on those early directorial efforts, sharing some memories about key episodes of the franchise. When it comes to his directorial debut, though, he mostly remembers realizing just how rowdy he and his costars could be on set. "Our cast, as you probably know, is notoriously rambunctious," Frakes told Variety. "I was, for better or for worse, one of the leaders of that kind of behavior on the set.

“Woo!”
That’s Jonathan Frakes’ reaction when he’s told he’s probably worked on more iterations of “Star Trek” than any other person alive.
“I’ll take it!” he says with a massive grin.
Frakes’ “Star Trek” history truly is something to behold. He joined the franchise in 1987 as part of the cast of “Star Trek: The Next Generation,” playing the rakish Commander William T. Riker opposite Patrick Stewart’s cerebral Capt. Jean-Luc Picard. Three years later, Frakes launched his second career as a director on “Tng” — or, as he calls it, “Next Gen” — ultimately helming eight episodes of the show. After “Next Gen” concluded in 1994, he directed three episodes each of “Star Trek: Deep Space Nine” and “Star Trek: Voyager,” before directing two of the four “Next Gen” feature films: 1996’s “Star Trek: First Contact” and 1998’s “Star Trek: Insurrection.”

MollywoodIt is a testament to these actors’ caliber that their changeovers are not only received so well, but actively encouraged by fans of cinema.With that cracking loud voice of his, actor Janardhanan introduces himself – all too politely to the surprise of an audience unaccustomed to seeing him like that – as Ouseppachan, the miserable father-in-law of a woman found dead in the house. He is one of the suspects in the 1988 crime film Oru Cbi Diary Kuruppu. Up until then, Janardhanan had mostly played the unabashed villain in Malayalam films of the 70s and 80s. But for reasons best known to K Madhu, the director of Mammootty’s Cbi series, Janardhanan was cast as the harmless rich guy in the film, whose misfortunes somehow translated into comic relief for the audience.

Chandigarh, June 24 (Ians) The Postgraduate Institute of Medical Education and Research (Pgimer) here on Saturday reiterated its commitment to prescribe and promote generic drugs with its Director Vivek Lal saying studies have shown that they are effective in lethal diseases like cancer.
“Even in transplant and in preventing rejection of transplant, generic drugs are equally effective and that too at one fifth of the price of their counterparts in branded category,” Lal said.
“The yardstick is to procure the right generic medicines from the right chemist,” he said at a press conference organised to deliberate on the issue of efficacy and other misconceptions regarding generic drugs.
Deliberating about the efficacy of the generic drugs, Lal cited evidence from a published study, ‘Real world experience with generic pomalidomide in relapsed refractory multiple myeloma’.
In India, he said, only generic counterpart of the pomalidomide is available and not the original one, as it’s very expensive.
