It brings us to the idea of bringing TED Talks which is an International based platform and very popular in foreign countries where Inspiring personalities come and share their experiences and make people aware of the difficulties in their lives and eventually triumphing over them. Inspiring enough isn't it? A great initiative indeed. But that doesn't mean what works in one place should work everywhere. We are talking about our nation where TED talks was brought on Indian TV sets for the desi audiences...but the results were..well quite disastrous.
As much as it is appreciated by a leading hindi GEC to bring the format in India and bring eminent personalities like Shah Rukh Khan, Ekta Kapoor, Javed Akhtar to share their stories of struggle, it just could not connect with the audiences. Not just the ratings of the show were bad but it also didn't make any buzz. We made a mini research on the performance of the show and asked some viewers to know their opinion. Abhilasha Gupta from Delhi said - 'I watch Television soaps to give my hectic day a relief. I don't have patience to go through 30-40 minutes of preaching on a television show which can be easily available on the Internet to read. As much as I would appreciate hearing Inspiring stores, TV is not that medium to tell them anymore atleast not in a preachy manner. Stories can be told in an entertaining way the audience can connect with.
Another viewer Vikas Singh from Ghaziabad said 'I am the biggest Shahrukh Khan Fan ever but still I don't really feel interested to watch such shows on TV. For me its a medium of sports especially cricket. I will choose a cricket match over a show like TED Talks easily and its not because I don't want to watch it, but there are better options available. Some of the viewers had also an Idea that such shows should be made on the digital platform. Soni Kumar from Agra tells us 'I think shows like TED talks are not meant on TV. They should be made for digital so that people can watch anytime. The basic mentality and thinking of people that opts for general entertainment shall prevent themselves watching the concerned show on TV. Although, the show is meaningful, Inspiring and Important what it lacks is a connect here.
TED Talks soon is gearing for second season and the details on the show are not being known. Yet, we would like to wish its team all the very best because regardless of the reception, such shows should be encouraged and motivated.

5/15/2018 0 Comments Race 3 Trailer promises 3x the Action, Suspense and Thrill and above all Salman
The most anticipated trailer for the most anticipated film on this year has arrived and as expected it delivers on those lines. Race 3 trailer has been released today and going by the visuals, it is safe to say that it promises the biggest action, adventure, thrill, suspense, chases and well...races so sit tight and just wait for the release date.
yetThe plot has not been revealed, however you can see your favourite 'Bhai' aka Salman khan in his usual kickass mode doing all the kickass things he is known for. But what's with the other characters doing the exact same thing? We might have to wait for either another trailer or the interviews from stars to know more about their characters as the releases approach.
Among the highlights, a special mention should be given to Saqib Saleem. He looks hot in the trailer and it seems like he would be given an interesting role in this one. After starring in a dozen of forgotten films, Race 3 seems to be right opportunity for him to get mapped in bollywood. Apart from that, the other cast members from Anil to Jacqueline to Bobby are in their usual selves.
The trailer is packed with enough action and thrill so chances are less that you would complain especially when our favourite 'Bhai' is taking the center stage. Everyone from the cast looks slick except Daisy Shah who looks a bit awkward. There is one request we want to make to our Bollywood filmmakers is to have stop projecting our heroines as action stars because it looks really fake. They are good with glamorous roles and the usual latkas-jhatkas type roles. Bollywood can never produce a 'Black Widow' or a 'Wonder Woman' so just don't go there. That's the only annoying thing about the trailer. The action from ladies hurt your eyes.
The film's packaging is great and the trailer shall be popular in no time. A good trailer ensures good curiosity levels in the minds of audiences before the release and Race 3 Trailer might just do the trick, similarly like what happened to 'Tiger Zinda Hai'. Any ways for the time being, just enjoy it.
The gorgeous actress and one of the top bollywood actresses of today - Anushka Sharma celebrates her birthday today. Anushka has come a long way in her bollywood journey to become one of the sought out actresses. Her journey has continued to see a lot of ups and downs. She managed to have a successful debut (Rab Ne Bana De Jodi in 2008) and then earning her place in Bollywood, but despite starring with top heroes and in A grade films, her status of being an actress was always questioned. It was because the roles that were offered to her were one note. She has played roles mostly that are bold and spunky, which is why she got typecasted pretty much soon(Badmaash company, Jab Tak Hai Jaan, Ladies Vs Ricky Behl, Matru Ki Bijli Ka Mandola).
She would continue to do such kind of roles which does not offer anything new to the audiences, even her successful 'Ae Dil Hai Mushkil' film's role had the same shades. Anushka had no choice but to break this mould by producing movies that would allow her to play breakthrough roles and win the audiences over. Indeed her performances in NH 10, Phillauri and Pari have received great acclaim. Her performance in NH10 still remains the best of her career. The gamut of emotions that she goes through and the way film ends up in a chilling finale had us all speechless. We would be expecting some more gems like this from her production house. Her line up of upcoming films is also Interesting. Here's wishing the beautiful actress a very happy birthday.
