Liven up your conversations with Bollywood Themed Mojis on Skype

‘Words’ and ‘plain text’ simply aren’t enough in today’s day and age. Even the best memes wouldn’t go viral if it wasn’t for the sarcasm, humour, or cuteness dripping from the face of the characters in them. Expressions matter! And a testimony to this is the fact that for the first time, the Oxford Dictionary has chosen a pictograph, an Emoji, as the word of the year as it best reflected the ethos, mood, and preoccupations of 2015.

We all feel the need for various media to clearly express our various moods and feelings whether in person, or over the phone. There are times when even pictographs and Emojis aren’t enough. These occasions merit something richer, more dynamic and more engaging. Something like Skype Mojis.

What’s that you ask? Skype Mojis are small videos of famous dialogues from some of the most loved Bollywood flicks. Now, why Bollywood you ask? Because the whole world, not just Indians love Bollywood and everything about it – the drama, the romance, the swag and the dialogues of the reel life characters. Also because no one ever said “You’re fab yaar!” better than how Saif said it in Cocktail and because every time you’ll hear the words “Kabhi kabhi mere dil mein khayal aata hai…” everything around you would come to a complete halt and you would be teleported back in time next to a young Amitabh Bachchan romancing under a tree on foreign land.

Inadvertently, we all use some Bollywood terminology to add flavor to our conversations, and that’s why Skype has brought some of the most iconic expressions/ stars/ dialogues in an easy-to-consume and share format to make daily conversations much more real and life-like.

Skype has partnered with Indian studios Yash Raj Films and ErosNow, to develop custom Mojis for Skype users with some Bollywood-centered emoticons dedicated to various gestures and expressions. Both Bollywood Mojis and emoticons are available worldwide in the features tab of the emoticon picker on Skype for Windows desktop, Mac, iOS, Android and Skype for Web. Irrespective of the platform or the device, people across the world can now have more memorable and personal conversations over an instant messaging platform.

In addition to the existing worldwide Mojis content, Skype will allow users to reply with Mojis fromtheir favorite movies such as the 20-years-and-still-running cult movie Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge (DDLJ), Tanu Weds Manu Returns, Dhoom 2 & 3, Devdas and many more. This association will offer Skype users a never before assembled collection of the funniest, craziest and most iconic moments from some of the best movies, all through Skype Mojis.

How It Works

To send a Moji, users simply have to press on the emoticon button and can then browse by movie or expression. Users can preview the Moji, and then simply drag it into the chat window. The best part? Both Bollywood Mojis and emoticons are available worldwide, in the featured tab of the emoticon picker.

Skype Mojis bring a richer content experience with sound, high visual quality, optimization for device size and bandwidth, as well as minimal battery drain. In addition to Bollywood Mojis, there is also a series of new Skype emoticons highlighting some of the food, gestures, holidays and daily expressions honoring the Indian culture Bollywood stems from.

Now express yourself with Mojis to life because sometimes words are not enough for your loved ones. Start sending Bollywood Mojis today in your Skype chats and become a star! Because using Mojis in your chats is, as SRK says in his Ra.one avatar, a “romba nalla idea”.

MSLGROUP Calls For a New Era of Sustainable Business

Chinese and Indian Millennials Believe Government and Businesses are

Key Forces in Addressing Climate Change

MSLGROUP Calls For a New Era of Sustainable Business

Mumbai, 20 November 2015; The future of business and the future of sustainability are the two sides of the same coin, according to MSLGROUP’s latest People’s Insights report, A Chance for Change: The Tipping Point for Sustainable Business.

Two weeks before world leaders convene at the United Nations climate change conference (COP21) in Paris, to negotiate an agreement on climate, MSLGROUP has spotlighted the voices of global leaders, Millennial change-makers and sustainability experts who are leading the momentum towards sustainable development and sustainable business.

The report highlights key takeaways, through a series of expert-written opinion pieces.

• Led by Millennials, people are demanding businesses take meaningful actions to address climate change. MSLGROUP’s global community of 250 Millennials* at BeTheChance.com, of which 90 of them are Millennials from China and India, share that they are frustrated, worried, and want immediate climate action. Similar to their global peers, both Chinese and Indian Millennials want to hear about greener products and expect businesses to collaborate with governments to address climate change. Interestingly, Chinese and Indian Millennials are different in one key way: Indian Millennials believe that the change starts with them personally, while Chinese millennials believe the change starts with the government.
• With new global goals announced by the United Nations, business is expected to play a bigger role in sustainable development. Experts from the UN and Salterbaxter MSLGROUP view the seventeen new Sustainable Development Goals as an opportunity for business growth and global impact. Business will play an essential role in implementing the goals, especially as it relates to partnerships, innovation and investment.
• Savvy businesses have already pivoted, raising the bar for others to transform and embrace disruption, innovation and new business models. MSLGROUP trend-watchers share examples of businesses that are already maximizing resources, creating positive handprints, collaborating across boundaries, changing people’s behavior and switching to clean energy. There is a race to the top that is widening the gap between businesses that already focus on sustainability and those that do not.
• Climate change and sustainability are complex topics – businesses must make these easier to digest to successfully engage consumers and employees. Sustainability leaders at leading businesses and organizations share their approaches to sustainability and citizenship, with examples of their latest initiatives and their projections for the near future. Action on sustainability is essential to attracting and retaining top talent.
• Human rights are a growing priority and responsibility for business, and a crucial part of the future of sustainability. Human rights experts and advocates highlight the growing pressure on businesses from the UN (and peers that are early adopters) to strengthen human rights policies and increase disclosure and assessments. Collaboration with human rights experts, and a proactive stance on newer human rights issues will help businesses achieve real impact.

According to Pascal Beucler, SVP and Global Chief Strategy Officer, MSLGROUP, the shift to sustainable business is unstoppable: “Sustainability has become one of top-most priorities for businesses today. Businesses are now increasingly eager to find more ways to add value to their triple bottom line. One could say that there’s a collective desire to be socially and environmentally responsible in how businesses are conducted. Material sourcing and climate change realities are only pushing brands to introspect new ways to operate, and the upcoming COP21 Climate Change Conference in Paris is going to significantly accelerate the movement.”  

“Considering the fact that Millennials in both China and India have seen first hand the impact of human activity on their local environments, it is no surprise that they feel WORRIED, ANXIOUS and SAD about climate change. Millennials sense an urgent need to address the global issue, where Chinese and Indian businesses should seize the opportunity, engage concerned Millennials and involve them as active agents of change to make the difference that is desperately needed,” said Schubert Fernandes, Asia Practice Leader for Corporate & Brand Citizenship at MSLGROUP.

The Tipping Point for Sustainable Business and BeTheChance.com are part of MSLGROUP’s global initiatives to give Millennials a voice on the issue of climate change. These efforts culminate at an event of the same name, Chance for Change, which takes place in Paris during COP21. The event will bring together business leaders and inspiring Millennials and will explore how the millennial generation can lead the response to climate change.

Spectre review by ANIZ FILMVALA

Spectre

review by

ANIZ FILMVALA

*****

James Bond, "007" the most magnificent spy of all the lot is here this time with a Dynamic visuals and chutzpah to dwarf the previous predecessor. Director Sam Mendes and his entire team have created a magnanimous installment of the series so far. Daniel Craig as "007” is unparalleled he has redefined the face and energy of the Bond aura, this bond is nearer to the reality and not fictionalized bullet proof object.

Mendes gives us all the elements of a bond movie, mind boggling opening is outstanding the subtle portions of drama is also engaging the action are well crafted including a mammoth blast is also spared out of the CGI. Cinematography by Hoyte van Hoytema [last movie Interstellar] is an incredible creation of visual never before seen [especially the opening physical chase between bond and Marco Sciarra the camera follows them on an invincibly pace], also the main signature theme of the James Bond films is intact.

Our Indian censors have gone ruthless on killing the most important perspective of a Bond film ‘The intimacy’ this moments of Bond film are the most desired by all the fans and have gone down the drain in this latest offering ‘Spectre’. 

Varun Dhawan hosts special screening of James Bond SPECTRE for his close ones!

Youth icon Varun Dhawan hosted a special screening of the much awaited James Bond SPECTRE that releases today at a suburban preview theatre in Mumbai.

The actor who's known to be a fan of the Bond series was seen enjoying the film along with David Dhawan and family!!

Ranbir - Deepika, the Golden Pair of their time!

As Tamasha inches closer to release, the chemistry between Ranbir and Deepika has become one of the major talking point.

This particular pair has taken the audiences expectations much high for their known chemistry both onscreen and off screen! 

From the trailer launch to each song that was out, the want of seeing this pair more has constantly been expressed by fans.

But what leaves a lot of their fans disappointed is that they cannot see them together in real life. That leaves them with only one option of watching them together on the silver screen.  

Another such example of this is SRK and Kajol who are also known as a Golden pair and who have passed the baton of being the Golden pair to Ranbir-Deepika now. SRK Kajol too are hitting the screen back together with their upcoming release.  

There have been some pairs like these even in the past when we have seen them together so many times on screen and off screen, we have heard several rumors about them being in a relationship or taking a break. 

But one thing which has been common with all these timeless couples is that none of them ended up with each other as millions of their fans would have wished.

Like Raj Kapoor – Nargis, Rajesh Kahnna – Mumtaaz and Amitabh – Rekha.

Tamasha being one of the most awaited films of the year with the most loved pair coming together on screen, it has already created huge buzz and the excitement to see Ranbir and Deepika on the silver screen once again is at its peak.

Presented by UTV Motion pictures and Nadiawala Grandson Entertainment, Tamasha is directed by Imtiaz Ali and produced by Sajid Nadiawala.

The film is all set to release on 27th November, 2015.

While the makers were worried about the actor’s health, everything went smoothly. 

“Varun pulled off the scene really well. The makers and the unit members were happy with how it turned out,” says the source.

Sajid confirmed the news.

The film marks to be the first venture whereby Varun and his brother Rohit are working together.

Dishoom is an upcoming Indian action adventure film Directed by Rohit Dhawan and Produced by Sajid Nadiadwala.

The contestants were evaluated in the rounds like Personal Interview, Fitness Wear Presentation, Evening Gown and High Fashion Modeling.

At a beauty pageant like Mrs. Earth its not just about looking good at the finale but starting from the moment you enter the pageant and doing your best in all the days. Keeping all this in mind Priyanka Khurana selected  a combination of outfits ranging from jeans, hot pants /daisy dukes, knee length dresses to full length gowns. Since Jamaica has a tropical weather and beach location she used a lots of floral prints with vibrant colors that looked very lively.

Sharing her experience at the Pageant Priyanka says, “Pageant aspirants should put equal focus on make up and hair along with the dresses. One should do  makeup and hair course or have a good makeup and hair artist to travel with you to take care of it for you as it makes a big impact to have different looks as per the occsasions like beach party, yatch party, presentation etc. One should take extra care while choosing the dress for interview round as that is the first time when judges see you in the  various rounds. Its should be a combination of a stylish yet formal a dressing .Also keep in mind the accessories are very important. Ensure you carry right accessories with multiple color choices including Indian and western wear. ”

While in pageant one should carry more than one gown as making a statement in every party is very important.  Even though the parties are not marked, judges are still watching the contestants. Colors for the  evening gown should be dark and the designs should make one look elegant. The judges wont look at the price of the evening gown but how you look. Priyanka continued to make style statement with her maroon gown

High fashion round needs a huge effort and understanding of self before choosing the right outfit as you cannot buy high fashion that will suit you just out of the rack. Priyanka chose a dress with fur top and frill bottom (photo attached below) which suited her the best and made the right winning impact on the ramp and  the judges.

At Mrs. Earth pageant for the national costume round expected Priyanka to represent and showcase the culture and art of India. Priyanka chose a lehnga choli and dupatta which had a theme of Radha Krishna and their eternal love as they are the epitome of pure eternal unconditional love. The uniqueness of this dress was the dupatta that had a hand painted depiction of eternal love by caligraphy artist Ram Kasture (photo attached below). This was very well appreciated by the judges

Hate Story 3 and Angry Indian Goddesses to clash at the box office

Both the films are absolutely different in content with only one similarity - which is the release date.

While Hate Story has the oomph factor and a lot of skin show the latter is quite the contrary. Angry Indian Goddesses is about women standing up for themselves and having fun without inhibitions.
