THE SMURFS 2 - trailer launch + SAB TV's Taarak Mehta cast members are Smurfs India Ambassadors!

Global Smurfs Day was held on 22^nd June 2013 to mark Smurfs creator Peyo’s birthday. The day was highlighted by a worldwide Smurf Ambassadors initiative, which began in Brussels as Veronique Culliford, Peyo’s daughter, appointed Smurf Ambassadors from 28 different countries – including India - and dispatched them to Paris, where much of The Smurfs 2 takes place.  The ambassadors dressed as Smurfs and then boarded their Smurfs-themed Thalys train for Paris.

In Paris, a huge flash mob greeted them by dancing to Britney Spears’ song “Ooh La La” from the film’s soundtrack – with a little help from Silvia Notargiacomo, choreographer of the French version of “Dancing with the Stars.”  The ambassadors also got to take a goodwill tour of Paris.

Ambassadors who travelled to Brussels and Paris included a wide range of Smurf fans, including television personalities, voice talent, choreographers, contest winners, and journalists -- and not least, characters Tapu and Champak Lal (Dadaji) from the top rated show on India’s SAB TV - “Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah”. The show will be integrating the Global Smurfs Day celebration in Brussels and Paris into its storyline in July, ensuring that even their fictional characters Tapu and Champak Lal pay homage to the Smurfs.

Popular kids channel Chutti TV celebrated Global Smurfs Day with an on air contest and a screening of the first Smurfs film.

But the Ambassadors’ tour was just the beginning, as people in countries around the world celebrated this special day.  Iconic locations visited by the Smurfs include the beaches of Athens; Dublin’s Ha’Penny Bridge and Moscow’s Gorky Park, which were covered in Smurf-blue flowers to celebrate; Australia’s Surfers Paradise, where city signage was actually changed to Smurfers Paradise for the day; the busy tramways of Hong Kong; Castel Sant’Angelo in Rome; and the Leaning Tower of Pisa; in China, Smurf figurines took over the world-famous Great Wall and other iconic locations around the country.

Elsewhere, Smurfs signed a giant birthday card for Peyo in Mexico City; visited children’s hospitals in Finland; painted Portuguese neighborhoods and South African orphanages blue; and joined the group Right Said Fred in a sing-along in London.

Finally, in Los Angeles, Neil Patrick Harris, star of The Smurfs 2, was on hand at the Grove as families enjoyed the day with appearances by the Smurfs, played the Ubisoft video game, sampled Menchie’s Smurfberry frozen yogurt, checked out the environmentally friendly, 100% electric Smurf-ified DASH cars, and participated in other fun activities.  In addition, the U.S. Forest Service and Ad Council’s Discover the Forest campaign was be on hand to distribute activity booklets and encourage children and their families to get outside and experience the many benefits of nature.  In the evening, families caught the first Smurfs film at an evening outdoor screening.

PUNJABI DHARMIK ALBUM- SIKHI-TYAG TE SHOORVEERTA

DESCRIPTION:- The incarnation of the Gurus, their Life and their sacrifices for protection of helpless & oppressed, is our Glorious Religion - Sikhism.  

Sri Guru Gobind Singh Sahib, our Dashmesh Pitah, made supreme sacrifices – that of his father and all his sahebzadas and set the proud tradition of selfless help for the needy and subjugated.  He, eventualized the Will of God in creating the Khalsa and spread the message for each one to live within a liberated soul.  He said that Faith of pure and divine soul is tested and re-tested at every step. Every step taken forward has to survive the greatest ordeal of agony and suffering. More the body burns in agony and suffering, more intensly the flame of devotional faith glows within. Such is the Faith of a Saint, Gurmukh, a True Sikh.

Vikramjit Singh Sahney, Padma Shri, through this album, has reminded and galvanized the present day generation to prepare and motivate itself to make sacrifices for humanity and to liberate those who are put under duress by the regimes of tyranny.  Through his soulfoul singing, he has depicted that despite severest ordeals and worldly afflictions, a true soul is never far from his Beloved Satguru and basks under his divine protection “Jiske Sir Upar Tu Swamy, So Dukh Kaisa Pawe”.

World War Z. review by ANIZ FILMVALA

World War Z.

review by

 ANIZ FILMVALA

STORY.
Former UN employee Gerry Lane and his family sit in heavy traffic in Philadelphia while the radio reports on a rabies outbreak that has spread internationally. They are attacked by masses of zombies, and those bitten become zombies as well. The Lanes narrowly escape and flee to an apartment complex to be extracted by a helicopter sent by Gerry's former UN colleague, Thierry. The family reaches the helicopter and are taken to a US Navy ship off the coast of New York, where a team of analysts and military personnel are analyzing the scope of the worldwide outbreak. A virologist, Dr. Fassbach, argues that the plague is a virus, whose origin must be found in order for a vaccine to be developed. The naval commander tells Gerry that, because of his expertise as a former UN investigator, he is to investigate the virus and help Fassbach find the source of the outbreak. Reluctantly agreeing for the sake of his family's staying on the ship, Gerry leaves on a plane for South Korea.
Arriving at the military base in South Korea, where the word "zombie" was first coined, they are attacked and Fassbach accidentally kills himself. At the base, Gerry learns from the commander that the zombies are attracted to noise. The commander also informs Gerry of a local who was found foaming at the mouth that bit a doctor and shows him to a room of incinerated bodies, where they, the soldiers, first saw the outbreak. An imprisoned CIA traitor tells Gerry to go to Jerusalem, where leader Jurgen Warmbrunn has established a safe zone just before the outbreak was officially acknowledged, implying Israel might have had prior knowledge.
Heading to Jerusalem, Gerry meets Warmbrunn, who explained that Israel, having heard about the outbreak from India, established a quarantine, and are letting uninfected civilians in. Due to loud noises coming from within the zone, thousands of infected on the other side of the wall begin to climb over and attack. Chaos erupts, and Gerry's escort soldier, Segen, is bitten. Gerry immediately cuts off her hand to prevent her from turning and they escape on a plane as Jerusalem falls to the infected.
Contacting Thierry, they are diverted to Cardiff to a World Health Organization research facility to assist in finding a cure. On the plane, a stowaway zombie attacks, resulting in Gerry throwing a grenade at the back of the plane. The explosion depressurises the cabin causing everyone to be sucked out. The plane crashes with Segen and an injured Gerry as the only survivors. The duo arrive at the facility, where Gerry deduces that the infected do not bite the terminally ill, and theorises that it is because they would be ineffective at spreading the virus. He volunteers to test a terminal but curable pathogen on himself to see if his idea works. But the wing that the pathogens are stored is filled with zombies, after one of the doctors accidentally infected himself and his colleagues. Gerry makes it into the vault with the pathogens and injects himself with one. He is able to return to the main lab due to the pathogen "camouflaging" him from the zombies. The doctors rejoice at the discovery and treat him immediately after his safe return.
Gerry returns to his family in a safe zone in Nova Scotia. A "vaccine" derived from deadly pathogens is developed that would act as camouflage for the troops battling the infected, and for fleeing civilians. The footage then shows offensives beginning; humanity now has hope, and Gerry ends the film by saying that "This isn’t the end; not even close."

Designer Karan Raj debuts at Fashion Me, Dubai.

In the run-up to the modern fashion phenomenon that aims at energizing the fashion industry in UAE, Fashion ME that rolled into Dubai World Trade Centre on 14-15th June 2013 bought together international fashion labels, fashion designers as well as buyers from international fashion houses in a concept that distilled international fashion trends with local influences into a cosmopolitan showcase. The event drew an audience of high-profile VIPs, fashion enthusiasts, socialites and industry leaders. The fashion show highlighted the season’s top trends and talents from 20 internationally renowned designers including Karan Raj.

Many designers from European and Asian countries showcased their fashion products in various categories - from downtown chic to uptown glamour. Debutante designer Karan Raj said "My experience of Dubai fashion show was fabulous. My show-stopper Anjana Sukhani did really well on the ramp and was very supportive as it was my first show. The theme was globalization. My designs that I showcased were influenced by nature. The materials used were mainly raw silk, thread silk fabrics, natural cotton, pure hand work and hand stitch in earthy hues... nothing was artificial. My actual collection is Indian ethnic wear but I tried to do something innovative in my first show". Mr. Waahiid Ali Khan (businessman) was a special guest for designer Karan Raj's show who was all praises for Karan's collection.

Bollywood actor Anjana Sukhani who sashayed down the ramp for designer Karan Raj said, "Karan's designs are very wearable and have a glamour quotient. Absolutely loved the earthy tones he used - rustic browns, off whites in light fabrics with fantastic style".

The two-day event showcased couture and luxury fashion providing business opportunities for exhibitors and buyers.
