Ashish Mehta

Ashish started out as a real estate developer. Travelling is his life, so on his travels he would see places and concepts that were not in India. February 30, just like the date that doesn’t exist in reality is also an illusion.  That combined with his motivation to have his own restaurant/bar made him start Bombay Cocktail Bar and then Blanco. The decor of the Lounge has also been inspired by his travels.

‘sending wilful defaulters  behind the bars is the only solution!’

Well-known comedian Raju Shrivastav has appealed to the government to make the Board of Directors of various banks pro-active in such a way that they can prevent frauds and scandals on one hand and on the other hand ensure that genuine people get loans on time without any hurdle or problem created by the banks in the sake of documentation.

Raju Shrivastav released the book “Bank of Polampur” (available in both Hindi and English) authored by Ved Mathur, former General Manager of Punjab National Bank, in Andheri today.Raju Shrivastav expressed his regret that despite several serious efforts of the government, the common man continues to find difficulties in obtaining loans for self-employment, education and housing, but at the same time  defaulters enjoy their life full of all luxuries.

If the amount of money looted after independence from various banks was to be used for welfare purposes, then every farmer could have got free manure, electricity and water and every citizen could have availed free education and healthcare. Ved Mathur, the author of the Bank of Polampur noted that political interference, ineffective board of directors and poor judicial system are responsible for the loot of trillions of rupees of banks.

Lawsuits of bank loans in Western countries are decided within a few days, whereas in India no effective action is taken for 5 to 15 years. This gives advantage to the financial defaulters like Vijay Malaya, who are able to abscond the country and use public money for their high life.

The author feels that if the government makes effective forensic audit for the sinking debt above 20 crore rupees and tries the defaulters in fast track courts, only then there can be a positive change in our economy.

Unfortunately, wilful defaulters with their political connections at multiple levels enjoy seven star luxurious life using hard earned public money. Ved Mathur with his experience of 40 years in banking has exposed in his controversial book, ‘Bank of Polampur’, the internal working of banking through the humour and satire.

Rajdeep says, “I love every genre of music but Sufi and romantic songs are dearer to me.  This is my first attempt to composing and am glad that people are loving it.” Talking about Bismillah, he adds “This is also my first original single with Zee music. The song is shot in Dubai with actor Sara Khan and me. It was a great experience to work with her as she is a thorough professional and an amazing actor.”

Rajdeep is also a fantastic live performer and has performed around the globe with his band. He has emerged as an idiosyncratic talent in today’s generation.

The song has crossed more than 1 million views in just a couple of days and is also trending on twitter India. Rajdeep signs off saying “Just got to know that the song is trending across many countries and crossed million views. I would say that we have touched more than a million hearts not views. Our motive was to make a song that is good but I am over-whelmed to receive this kind of love and affection.”

Ranveer Singh and Shekhar Ravjiani were spotted together on the sets of Saregamapa. It was like a house on fire when they met.

For the first time in the history of Bollywood, a production house Lakhshya Production held its road show for its upcoming movie ‘The Dark Side Of Life: Mumbai City’. An innovative Promotional exercise, the event was attended by its start cast at Adarsh Nagar Signal, near Oshiwara police station on link road in Andheri West.

“It is an eye opener for Mumbaikars who are so involved with the daily hustle bustle of a metro life that they are unaware of the impending unfortunate events which could occur in our city lives,” said producer Rajesh Pardasani while reminding us of the tragic events surrounding Jia Khan and Pratushya Bannerji.

Director Tariq Khan puts it plainly, “Hopelessness and despair is one such state of mind which creeps deeper into our minds without us realising about such a parasite growing within us which all of a sudden brings one into a situation of being cornered in life which brings rise to suicidal tendencies in a human being. Our film delves into the subject and even if it succeeds in bringing a single soul to normalcy, would be a winning moment for us.” This is relevant in present times even with the recent example of a senior law enforcement officer committing suicide.

The soul-touching songs are rendered by Jubin Nautiyal, Amit Mishra, Mohammed Irfan, Altamash Faridi and Aftab Hashim Sabri. Principal cast of the film includes Mahesh Bhat, K.K Menon and Nikhil Ratnaparkhi who are supported by Avi, Gul Sayed, Deep Raj Rana, Neha Khan and Alisha Seema Khan among others.

‘The Dark Side Of Life: Mumbai City’ is releasing on 23 November across cinema halls nationwide.

Love is Love for #LMIFW was inspired by the historic 377-judgement which opened doors of expression for many people across India. Love freely, live freely was our inspiration behind Zoe and Noor, and we’re proud to know that our vision received such love and acceptance from the community!

During our 4 days at LMIFW, we came to be acquainted with this young guy named Abhijai, who would visit our stall every day and was very taken by our bridal exhibit. It was only after multiple conversations that he confided in us that the main reason why he kept coming back was because he was imagining himself in one of the gowns – the Noor gown to be specific. This honest confession from Abhijai sparked a series of conversations between our designers and the rest of the team, who all agreed that we should not let popular beliefs or mindsets influence or change our motivation behind this collection. Zoe and Noor were created in solidarity for the #LGBTQ movement. Through them, we wanted to echo our support for diversity and freedom of expression and being your true self. And what is fashion if not a medium of expression? What Abhijai saw in Noor meant the world to us, because it reinforced our faith in what we had created. And so we decided to let Abhijai live his imagination on the last day of the fashion week!

And so it was on Sunday that with the help of our talented interns @mehrkalraaaa and @ashwinbudhraja we pulled off this super fun impromptu shoot with @sassy__potatoes! To us, this was the perfect way to wrap up #LMIFW with the hope that one day #LoveIsLove will be a belief and not a movement! We want to once again thank everyone for all your lovely messages and words of encouragement for the collection, it means a lot to us!
