MANJHA Review ***

The film has a take on parenting and it proves that there are risks involved in parenting where both you and your children are vulnerable to get hurt. Being too lenient and too strict is not going to work out same like kite thread, manjha,  and balance has to be maintained in upbringing of children. From the first frame the film creates interest and sustains it for most part of the film. The best part about the film is the thrill and the story keeps us thinking what the characters are upto.

Showing the picturesque location of Lonavala and its surroundings, the film tells the story of urban characters. Mostly the film focuses on three characters Samidha (Ashwini Bhave), her son Jaideep (Rohit Phalke) and his school friend Vikram aka Vicky (Sumedh Mudgalkar. When the film starts, Jaideep is sorta shy characters who talks less and is more of a timid guy. Samidha is a caring mother who oversees his life because Jaideep has gone through a troubled past along with her that is why they have come to settle in Lonavala. But things change soon when extrovert  Vikram befriends Jaideep and soon Jaideep starts getting active. Jaideep's transformation not only happens in terms of his talking and being happy but Vikram corrupts his mind and Jaideep is on verge of becoming a bad guy that is forced on him by Vikram.  But the events take sharp turn and Samidha has to support her son Jaideep to get him back on right track. The battle of good and bad continues till the end.

There is only one song in the film nearing the climax that takes the story forward. Cinematography and apt acting are the strengths of the movie. Ashwini Bhave has portrayed her character beautifully while as the Rohit and Sumedh also have done justice. There are few awkward moments in the film though in terms of dialogue where Vikram gives description of killing an animal and raping a girl. The film increases our expectations from start to end but the culmination is shown too quick that may prove to be a letdown. Overall the movie is well made and is sure to be a hit on account of its promotion and word of mouth.

Media agencies to battle it out at the 4th ‘BBC World News Football Connect’ tournament

                                                        

Mumbai, July 17^th 2017: Some of India’s top media agencies will be taking to the field next week for the 4th ‘BBC World News Football Connect’, a five-a-side football tournament hosted by BBC World News. Launched in 2014, this annual competition aims to bring together media agencies for a game of football and a chance to claim the event’s top title. 

Taking place at Cooperage Ground astro turf field in Mumbai on Friday, 21st July, BBC World News Football Connect 2017 will highlight the international news channel’s significant sports offer both on TV and online at BBC.com.

More than 250 associates from the media industry are estimated to attend the event, representing the top media agencies, including CEOs and senior planners.  And this year there is a particular focus on getting more women involved with the introduction of a ‘Golden Goal’ penalty shoot-out. Every team has to nominate two women, one would take the penalty and the other would be a goalkeeper, encouraging female participants to play significant roles in teams. At the start of each match the nominated women would get three penalty shots and the goals scored would be added to the final score if the game ends in a tie. This is just one of the many highlights of the day which is now a ‘must-attend’ event for many in the industry, as it blends networking with high quality sporting spirit.

The tournament will begin with league matches and conclude with a final match and awards ceremony. But while the teams take on each other on the field, there will also be plenty of action on the sidelines. There will be a VIP fan zone where fans can cheer the teams, participate in a foosball competition or test their teamwork skills, working collaboratively to build the tallest tower possible using 4ft jenga-style blocks, plus a host of other activities where they can challenge the hosts and score merchandise.

The event has gained a lot of attention in the past few weeks with its recently concluded media agency drive in Mumbai where the BBC World News Football Connect team built a football environment in offices and encouraged media agency personnel to challenge their colleagues over a penalty shoot-out competition. This has also encouraged wider teams in these media agencies to join the event to cheer for their favorite squads.

Looking forward to BBC World News Football Connect 2017, Vishal Bhatnagar, Sales Director, South Asia, for BBC Advertising said:

“We are excited to be back with BBC World News Football Connect 2017, an initiative which has been well received and appreciated by the media community over the last four years. BBC World News and BBC.com are amongst the top news platforms in India and this makes BBC World News Football Connect 2017 a key platform for sharing our brand values with our associates, and for showcasing our various offerings across World News, .com, the mobile app and other platforms. We are confident of having significant participation this year, along with a display of high quality football.”

CenturyPly launches an all new revolutionary product – VenLam

·         CenturyPly enters a new product category with VenLam

·         VenLam is a product that gives the aesthetic beauty of Real Wood along with the ease of working with high pressure laminates

India, July, 2017: CenturyPly has been the front-runner in applying innovation at work. The largest sellers of multi-use plywood and decorative veneers in India enters into a new category by launching a one of its kind product in the industry-VenLam, an innovative product that provides both, the aesthetic beauty of real wood and the comfort of working with high pressure laminates.

As the name “VenLam” suggests, it is a combination of Veneers and Laminates. VenLam is made by a technologically advanced process where decorative face veneer layers and layers of impregnated Kraft paper are fused together. There are 17 varieties of designs available with size of 8*4ft in the thickness of 1.0mm.

The superior lustre and increased durability makes VenLam an ideal choice for a wide range of applications.

USPs

·         Boil water resistant Product

·         Ease of work – conventional laminate tools are suitable for fabrication.

·         Normal adhesive for Laminate is suitable for application. No nailing is required

·         Requires less space for storage.

·         Handling / shifting is easy. Can be delivered / shifted in roll form.

·         Better surface finish because of calibrated surface (uniform thickness) – Results in superior finish after application of polish.

·         Confirms to E1 grade in Formaldehyde emission standard.

·         Termite and Borer resistant (under test).

VenLam allows application in those areas where traditional veneers cannot be used. Application areas of the product are as follows:

•       Laminates along with VenLam can be used side by side (which was not possible in case of traditional veneers as the thickness was 3.5mm/4mm as compared to 1mm Laminates)

•       Because of Light weight it’s easier to use in doors of Kitchen, modular furniture and also while re-furbishing antique furniture.

•       Traditionally on cupboards / modular kitchens one side of the ply is 3.5mm veneer & other side is of 1mm Laminates (mostly inside) which causes problem in balancing. With VenLam this issue gets resolved.

Commenting on the launch, Mr Keshav Bhajanka, Executive Director, CenturyPly comments. “CenturyPly has always been the innovator in the wood panel industry. We as a company, have always tried to come up new products which add to the aesthetic value of homes as well as to make the life of our customers more hassle free. Consequently, we have now come up with a new unique product VenLam, which brings together the aesthetic beauty of veneer along with the strength, flexibility and superior application properties of laminates. CenturyPly has been working on this product for close to two years now and after vigorous testing, and countless trials we are now completely confident of giving our customers a flawless product. We hope that this product shall benefit our consumers and add to the beauty of their homes. We are confident that VenLam has the potential to create a new market in itself.”

As per Mr. Shankho Chowdhury, Executive Business Head-Decoratives, CenturyPly, “We are very happy to announce that CenturyPly, taking forward the mission to transform living spaces into an embodiment of visual pleasure and comfort, presents another innovative product VenLam. Here, one gets the aesthetic beauty of Real Wood and the ease of working with high pressure laminates in a single product. A revolutionary product exploring the best of both the worlds. VenLam is made by a special process where a layer of Decorative Face Veneer and layers of impregnated Kraft paper are fused together by adopting an innovative technology “
