Kangna: I haven't found the right guy

When a woman is happy, she glows. This is pretty much on display in case of Kangna Ranaut who has never been happier. She is living a happy life both on and off the screen. From the real life trauma of physical and mental abuse followed by a broken relationship, she is happy being single. Also, ONCE UPON A TIME IN MUMBAAI - her first non-intense role in ages - has turned out to be a major success. No wonder, she is totally concentrating on her professional life and not quite hunting for love.

Peepli Live Movie Review

All of us must be cognizant of news channels and their amusing race for reporting of (frivolous) stories. You sure still remember the story of 'Prince' falling into a pit and his 'rescue operation' basking the headlines as 'breaking news' for days. But all said and done, we have to admit that they do attract eyeballs. Anusha Rizvi, an erstwhile journalist herself has shown us a mirror throughPEEPLI [LIVE]. And the

Dabangg (2010) ** Music Review ** by newsbook Rating - 3.5/5



Director :Abhinav Kashyap
Music :Sajid-Wajid and Lalit Pandit
Lyrics :Faiz Anwar, Lalit Pandit and Jalees Sherwani
Starring :Salman Khan, Sonakshi Sinha, (Introducing), Arbaaz Khan, Sonu Sood, Vinod Khanna, Dimple Kapadia, Mahesh Manjrekar and Om Puri


Fuelled with the immense commercial success of WANTED (2009), it is show-time once again for another stylish hi-octane thriller with Salman Khan getting into slick "dhishoom-dhishoom" SFX thrills in DABANGG (meaning "fearless"). This crime fiction is also consequential as it marks the arrival of much hyped star-kid Sonakshi Sinha (daughter of Shatrughan Sinha) as its leading lady. No prize for guessing for its lead composers, as predicted Sajid-Wajid take the honors and promises to

  • Atheist author angers Muslim groups
  • Burqa fills him with "visceral revulsion"
  • Claims religious schools are a danger
BRITISH academic and outspoken atheist Richard Dawkins has angered Muslim groups by comparing the burqa to a trash bag.
The 69-year-old author referred to the burqa as a “full bin-liner thing” in a magazine interview while discussing his forthcoming documentary about the dangers of faith schools.
Muslim organisations reacted angrily to the throwaway comment.
"I think it is ignorant and Islamaphobic," said Seyyed Ferjani, of the Muslim Association of Britain.
"Britain is a diverse and free society. It is a woman’s choice if she wishes to wear a burqa, a niqab or not. Why does it matter to this man what a woman is wearing? We should be encouraging respect and understanding for each other."
Professor Dawkins, who is the author of The Selfish Gene and The God Delusion, stood by his remark, made in the Radio Times, in a subsequent interview with

Microsoft Issues Record Number of Patches


Microsoft has issued 14 security bulletins to address 34 vulnerabilities, 14 of which have been judged as critical.
It has been a record-setting day for Microsoft. Whether that is a good thing or not depends on your point of view. Today, Symantec issued a press release stating that Microsoft would be setting a record for the number of patches sent out in a single month, and it would tie the record for the total number of vulnerabilities since it began its “Patch Tuesday” program of releasing weekly patches when necessary.
Good news for Microsoft, which managed to catch the security holes. Not so good news for people affected by the myriad of problems.
