Lincoln A Fantastic Place For India A To Do Tests Prep, Dont Get Spooked By Green Tops, Says Pamment
The Bert Sutcliffe Oval: The Bert Sutcliffe Oval in Lincoln is the ideal setting for India's Test top-order batters to find their feet in New Zealand, and that they must not be unsettled by the green pitches awaiting them, said former New Zealand assistant coach James Pamment. India A begin their red-ball series against New Zealand A at the Bert Sutcliffe Oval on Saturday, and Pamment, who also worked as fielding coach of five-time IPL winners Mumbai Indians, believes it is the perfect stepping stone for a group largely new to the country. They're playing their two games at the Bert Sutcliffe Oval in Lincoln University, aren't they? So, it'll be very, very similar conditions and very similar atmosphere to when they play at Hagley Oval. Different clay in Wellington and very green wickets for Test matches in Wellington. Sometimes teams get spooked by the greenness of the wicket, but it actually doesn't seam around too much. It gives great pace and great bounce. So, that's what they'll have to bear in mind, that the wickets that they're preparing on in Christchurch will be a little bit flatter. They might seam a little bit more and then flatten off. But what they'll experience in Wellington is very green wickets, but a little bit more pace, bounce and not as much movement. So, it will be important. Take the brave option would be my encouragement to those guys and make sure they're starting that in their preparation down at Bert Sutcliffe Oval, which is a fantastic ground to be doing your preparation, especially if you've never played in New Zealand before. It's a nice environment just to make that transition, Pamment told IANS in an exclusive conversation. The stakes explain why the A team fixtures matter so much. The Shubman Gill-led side faces a very tough examination when the two-match Test series starts on November 19, in a country where India have won just two series in 58 years. Only three players in the current Test squad - Ravindra Jadeja, Rishabh Pant and Jasprit Bumrah - have played a Test match previously in New Zealand. With the series happening in November, well before the peak of the New Zealand summer comes, it means conditions will favour seamers more. At least nine members of the Test squad KL Rahul, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Devdutt Padikkal, Jurel, B Sai Sudharsan, Washington Sundar, Akash Deep, Anshul Kamboj and Pant (subject to recovering from left side strain), are lined up for three red-ball matches between October 24 and November 10 and need to acclimatise to conditions if they are to excel in the Test series. Pamment stressed that mindset would matter as much as technique for the visiting batters. I understand that there are four or five of those guys that are playing in the first three ODIs and will then step across and start some preparation for the Test matches, as is the same with the New Zealand team. Seven of the New Zealand players will step out of the fourth and fifth ODIs and start their preparation for the Test match in Basin Reserve. But I think it's really important that they don't get spooked by the green wickets. That's the most important thing and that they remain positive and they try and take the game on and, and advance it rather than thinking, 'Oh, it's green wickets. We're going to have to fiddle around here and try and survive.' There is plenty riding on the outcome too. India sit fifth in the World Test Championship standings and need a 1-0 or 2-0 result to keep their hopes of a final berth alive. When India won 1-0 in 2009, their top-order amassed 899 runs in three Tests, with two centuries and five fifties. Current head coach Gautam Gambhir had batted out for 643 minutes and 436 balls for making a magnificent 137 runs, to save the Napier Test. But in the 2014 and 2020 tours, Indias top-order didnt replicate those dazzling efforts and suffered series defeats. Onus will be huge on Rahul, Jaiswal and Padikkal to get big runs, especially with New Zealands top-order averaging 45.03 in Tests at home since 2024. On the bowling combination, especially with Bumrah and Jadeja present, Pamment was clear that India should resist the temptation of an all-pace attack. I think you definitely have to play a spinner. For sure you have to play a spinner because if the game in Wellington does go the distance a little bit longer - sometimes games are finished in the third, or even the second and third days. But I think with quality batting, if you approach it with accuracy and, like I say, with bravery, then the game can go deep. So, you always need to play a spinner and I don't think they need to just go for a total seam attack. I think it's definitely 3-1 would be my recommendation and somebody like Jadeja obviously is an all-rounder as well. Then, you do lengthen your batting, but I think three seamers is a good one. He also felt the presence of seam-bowling all-rounder Nitish Kumar Reddy can help balance Indias ideal playing eleven. That all-rounder is the key as well - if you can have a middle-order all-rounder who can bowl a little bit of seaming balls. Somebody like Nitish Kumar Reddy in the middle order, and then Jadeja just allows you to play those three specialist seamers, one specialist spinner and an all-rounder. That's the right balance and I think that's probably the balance that New Zealand might look to go in with as well. New Zealand's edge at home has often come as much from their batters' comfort on seaming surfaces as from their bowling. Even so, Pamment warned that bounce would be the biggest test for the Indian batters, with Matt Henry leading a demanding and relentless fast bowling unit. Matt Henry has been one of the world's best bowlers in Test match cricket over the last two or three years. He's found very consistent line and length - very demanding, moves the ball, swings the ball, and seams the ball. With (Kyle) Jamieson, it's bounce and some of the other guys who are potentially likely to be involved as well. It could bounce if they go for, let's say Jacob Duffy, who was the leading wicket-taker for New Zealand for all formats over the last calendar year and so it could be him. Blair Tickner's another one with bounce - so that's the thing that they were going to have to be able to combat is the bounce. It'll be slightly different from Wellington to Christchurch. But those New Zealand bowlers will be demanding and India can probably think themselves a little bit fortunate that New Zealand have decided to rest William O'Rourke. O'Rourke has been kept out with an eye on the Test series against Australia that follows soon after they are done with matches against India. He's not going to be available because he's being conditioned to be ready for the Australian series, which follows on after the Indian series. So, he's a big miss for New Zealand. But they're obviously trying to make sure that he's ready for Australia. It'll be demanding, and there's obviously a number of other bowlers as well around that group. They haven't named their team yet, but when they do, I think the seamers will come from that crop. Nathan Smith's another one - not quite as tall as some of the other ones, but Nathan is very accurate. Obviously, he does move the ball laterally as well and generally gets into a very consistent line and length. So, the Indian boys will have to be very proactive when facing him because you just can't allow those guys just to get into the groove and bowl consistent ball after ball after ball. You have to be proactive and the Indian guys will know that. With the WTC final spots at stake, Pamment said the hosts were well placed going into a demanding stretch. Obviously, it's a pivotal time. New Zealand are sitting in a pretty good position, but they're playing India at home and then Australia away. So, two incredible challenges and if they can come out with positive results in those two series, it'll really stand them in good stead. So, really exciting times to be a New Zealand spectator, supporter and obviously a player as well to play against India and then going to Australia straight away. So, a lot of excitement around that. India has got a little bit of work to do, but hey, they have the quality. With the WTC final spots at stake, Pamment said the hosts were well placed going into a demanding stretch. Obviously, it's a pivotal time. New Zealand are sitting in a pretty good position, but they're playing India at home and then Australia away. So, two incredible challenges and if they can come out with positive results in those two series, it'll really stand them in good stead. Also Read: Special Cricket Stories Article Source: IANS

Sushma Verma Set To Hit A Jackpot In WPL Auction: Reema Malhotra
Trinbago Knight Riders: Senior wicketkeeper-batter Sushma Verma is poised for a big payday at the WPL 2027 auction, with UP Warriorz and Mumbai Indians likely to lock horns for her services, said former India player Reema Malhotra on Friday. With several franchises short of a home-grown wicketkeeper, the Indian wicketkeeper-batters are expected to be among the most coveted picks when the five teams finalise their squads at the auction in Kochi starting at 5:30pm on October 28. Sushma also turned out for Trinbago Knight Riders (TKR) in this years Womens Caribbean Premier League (WCPL) when Yastika Bhatia left for India A commitments. Sushma Verma is going to hit the jackpot this time because Mumbai Indians, and UP Warriorz are looking at her in the trials. She has recently played in the CPL as well, and she brings experience. She performed well the whole season in domestic cricket as well. So, somewhere, I feel there is going to be a good fight between UP Warriorz and Mumbai Indians, but think she might go to UP Warriorz because Mumbai Indians have a budget issue, said Reema on JioStar. She also flagged young G Kamalini as one to watch, given that she offers the rare combination of left-handed batting, wicketkeeping and international exposure. Kamalini, though, may not be available for the entirety of WPL 2027 if shes picked in Indias squad for the U19 Womens T20 World Cup, happening in Nepal and Bangladesh. G. Kamalini is a young player, and now she also has international experience. She has not done much at the international level, but we all know about the talent she possesses. She would obviously be a much-improved player with the experience and quite a few teams need an Indian wicketkeeper-batter. You never know; Mumbai Indians might pick her up, DC also need an Indian wicketkeeper-batter, and UP Warriorz need one too. She is a left-hander who can bat in the top order as well as the middle order and if so many teams are looking for an Indian keeper, Kamalini could be a name to watch out for, she added. Former India batter Veda Krishnamurthy felt Royal Challengers Bengaluru might be tempted to bring back Australia captain Sophie Molineux, though her fitness record could weigh on their decision. You never know; Mumbai Indians might pick her up, DC also need an Indian wicketkeeper-batter, and UP Warriorz need one too. She is a left-hander who can bat in the top order as well as the middle order and if so many teams are looking for an Indian keeper, Kamalini could be a name to watch out for, she added.

Security agencies and the Mumbai police have been placed on high alert after an email sent to Mayor Ritu Tawde on Friday threatened bomb blasts at her office, actor Amitabh Bachchan's home and the venue of singer Diljit Dosanjh's concert, an official said. After a thorough search of the mayor's office at the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) headquarters, nothing suspicious was found, an official said. According to police, the mail, also marked to Deputy Mayor Sanjay Ghadi, warned of a grenade attack on a school on October 31 and threatened to target Bachchan's Juhu home 'Jalsa' between October 31 and November 27. The email, which made references to 'Khalistan', also claimed that there would be an attack during the November 27 concert of singer Diljit Dosanjh in the Mahalaxmi Racecourse area.

Grace Harris Could Be Costliest Buy At WPL Auction If UP Warriorz Go For Her: Aakash Chopra
Royal Challengers Bengaluru: Australias big-hitting batting all-rounder Grace Harris could walk away as the most expensive player at the WPL 2027 auction, with cash-rich UP Warriorz well placed to make a big play for her, said former India mens batter Aakash Chopra. All five franchises will look to fill the remaining slots in their squads at the auction starting at 5:30pm in Kochi on October 28, with Indian wicketkeeper-batters and overseas all-rounders expected to be the most sought-after. Teams can have a maximum of 18 players in their squad, including six from overseas. In all, 27 slots will be filled on the auction day, including seven overseas spots. Grace was a member of the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) team winning WPL 2026, where she made 237 runs in nine innings. I think Grace Harris would be the most expensive player at this smaller auction. Of course, in a small auction, the player availability is limited. Demand also won't be very high because most teams have held on to their main players. But I still feel that the kind of batter she is and contributes with the ball as well, she could be in demand. Who has the biggest purse? It is UP Warriorz once again. So, if the UP Warriorz are keen, I feel she could be the most expensive player at this auction, said Chopra to JioStar. Chopra also tipped Mumbai Indians to chase Indias off-spin bowling all-rounder Sneh Rana, who was released by Delhi Capitals, citing a gap in the home-grown spin bowling options of the two-time champions. I am thinking Mumbai Indians could go for her because they lack Indian spinners. If you look at their track record, there has been a lot of focus on Hayley Matthews and Amelia Kerr in the spin department. One year, we saw Saika Ishaque do a very good job, but she is no longer part of the team. Chopra also tipped Mumbai Indians to chase Indias off-spin bowling all-rounder Sneh Rana, who was released by Delhi Capitals, citing a gap in the home-grown spin bowling options of the two-time champions.

Daler Mehndis health: Son Gurdeep shares update amid controversy over Uttarakhand performance
Digital Desk | Mumbai, Oct 23 (IANS) Gurdeep Mehndi has opened up about his father Daler Mehndis health amid the controversy surrounding the singers performance at a Navratri event in Uttarakhand. Assuring fans that his father is doing well, Gurdeep refrained from commenting on the ongoing row. Speaking to IANS, he addressed concerns about his fathers well-being and said, He is first class, fantastic, super hit, and best of luck. Daler Mehndis performance at the annual Siddhpeeth Maa Kunjapuri Tourism and Development Fair in Uttarakhand sparked controversy after state minister Subodh Uniyal interrupted his show midway. The minister allegedly accused the singer of being under the influence of alcohol and delivering a poor performance despite charging a substantial fee. He also questioned whether Daler was lip-syncing instead of singing live. Several celebrities, including Mika Singh, Palash Sen, Kapil Sharma, and Sudesh Lehri, have also come out in support of Daler Mehndi amid the controversy surrounding his performance in Uttarakhand. Defending his brother, Mika shared a video wherein he said, I saw the news. You people have spread this Daler Mehndi was drunk while singing, he is unable to sing First of all, I would like to ask you all- he has been a superstar for the last 30 years.

If you havent seen it yourself, how can you say that he was unable to stand? As artists, we often agree to perform at someones request and say, Yes, we will do the show. Even if we have a fever of 104 degrees, it doesnt matter. If I am unwell and have a show the day after tomorrow, but have already committed to it, I will honour that commitment regardless of whether the budget is big or small. He (Daler Mehndi) must have done the same, he added.

Bhumika Gurung reveals why she said yes to the web series 'Snow Bride'
Digital Desk | Mumbai, Oct 23 (IANS) Actress Bhumika Gurung, known for her performances in shows such as Nimki Mukhiya and Nimki Vidhayak, is now exploring the mystery-filled world of the web series Snow Bride.

The series is an intense suspense crime drama set in a remote Himalayan village where fear, blind faith, and a chilling mystery go hand in hand. Led by Bhumika, Shivam Bhaargava, Manul Chudasama, and Inderjeet Modi in key roles. The six-episode series explores a community haunted by the legend of the Yeti, where the disappearance of young women has become an unsettling reality, and one woman dares to challenge what everyone else believes. Talking about her character, Bhumika said in a statement: What fascinated me about Purva was that she is not someone who can simply accept an explanation because everyone around her believes it. She wants to understand what is happening, even when asking questions makes her stand apart from the people around her. She added: Playing that determination alongside the fear and uncertainty she encounters was something I really enjoyed exploring. What I find interesting about Snow Bride is that the audience is discovering the mystery alongside her, and I am excited for viewers to follow her journey and question what they believe they know about this village. Shivam added: Snow Bride has a very intriguing premise. The setting as well as the legend, whose stories a lot of us have grown up with, create a sense of unease even before you know what is really happening. The story keeps you questioning what people believe, what they choose not to see, and what might be hiding beneath the surface. Being part of a crime drama that gradually peels back these layers was an interesting experience, and I am looking forward to audiences discovering how the mystery unfolds. Sharing her thoughts on the series, Manul Chudasama notes, What makes Snow Bride stand out is that the mystery is not limited to the legend of the Yeti. There is a much darker reality behind what the villagers have come to accept, and that is what gives the story its unsettling edge. As an actor, the series gave me the opportunity to explore a world where appearances and assumptions can be misleading, and I am curious to see how audiences interpret the characters as they discover more about the story. In the village, missing women are spoken of as rides of the Yeti, and their disappearances are met with a troubling acceptance shaped by fear, faith, and generations of belief. But when Purva begins questioning the stories that the villagers have long accepted without protest, she finds herself drawn into a mystery that grows more unsettling with every unanswered question. Inderjeet Modi said: What drew me to Snow Bride is that the tension comes not only from what is happening, but also from what people choose to believe or question. When an entire community believes in something, challenging that belief is never simple, and that creates an interesting dynamic for the characters. The crime element adds another layer to the mystery, and I believe audiences will be drawn to the way the story challenges their assumptions as it unfolds.

Maha MLC polls: Voting underway for five seats; Mahayuti, MVA both assert wins
Digital Desk | Mumbai, Oct 23 (IANS) Polling for five Maharashtra Legislative Council seats, comprising three graduate and two teacher constituencies, is currently underway on Friday with 182 candidates in the fray, and their political futures sealed in ballot boxes across 2,419 polling stations. The counting is scheduled for October 27. The polling, which started at 8 a.m. and will continue till 4 p.m., is taking place in the Pune Teachers and Pune Graduate constituencies; Amravati Teacher Constituency; Nagpur and Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar Graduate Constituencies, where the rebels have made the elections tough for both the ruling Mahayuti and Maha Vikas Aghadi. Union Minister of State Murlidhar Mohol cast his vote at Dindayal Upadhyaya School in Kothrud, Pune. Speaking to reporters after exercising his franchise, Mohol expressed firm confidence that the ruling Mahayuti coalition will secure victories across all five constituencies. Mohol stated that graduate and teacher voters are educated and analytical. He noted that voters evaluate national progress, global developments, and the accelerated pace of state development under Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Chief Minister/Deputy CMs leadership before casting their ballots. Addressing comparisons with cooperative body elections (such as Gokul), Mohol emphasised that cooperative and legislative council polls operate under entirely different dynamics. He reiterated full confidence in the victory of candidates such as Smita Jadhav and Kaustubh Gawde, noting that alliance-supporting voters will firmly back the coalition. The Higher and Technical Education Minister Chandrakant Patil also said that the Mahayuti will win all five seats. Expressing strong confidence in the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) ahead of the Legislative Council elections, the Congress Legislature Party leader Vijay Wadettiwar predicted victories across all five seats, including the Nagpur Graduate constituency, both seats in Pune, Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar, and Amravati. Levelling serious allegations over electoral integrity, Wadettiwar claimed that flawed voter lists are a critical issue and asserted that the BJP resorts to manipulation in voter rolls because it cannot win elections fairly. The Pune graduate constituency records the highest participation base with approximately 3.88 lakh voters. The Amravati teacher constituency records the smallest base with approximately 35,000 voters. To ensure ballot validity, voters were required to present valid identification documents, including Aadhaar cards, driving licenses, PAN cards, Indian passports, government or semi-government service ID cards, MP/MLA/MLC official IDs, educational institution service IDs, or original university degree/diploma certificates. The election process in the Nagpur graduate constituency witnessed friction following allegations of discrepancies in the voter rolls. Congress candidate Abhijit Wanjari and party leaders raised concerns over 8,744 duplicate voter entries across multiple polling booths, calling the situation a matter of serious concern. Congress state chief spokesperson Atul Londhe alleged during a press conference that approximately 20,000 to 22,000 voter registrations were processed using a single mobile number (5432154321), and questioned the transparency of the verification process. A formal letter demanding an inquiry was submitted to the divisional commissioner by Congress leader Prafulla Goodhe. Following complaints, election authorities at polling booths required voters with duplicate listings to execute a short written declaration confirming they were voting at only one designated location and would not cast a vote elsewhere.

The upcoming project brings Akshay into a space where he gets to explore a different side of his acting, stepping into a character with shades of grey. Reflecting on working alongside the veteran actor, Akshay said, Manoj Bajpayee sir has been an idol for me since childhood. I have grown up watching his performances, and in many ways, I have based my own career decisions on actors like him, who have consistently chosen substance over convention and let their work speak for itself. He added: He showed us that you don't have to follow the obvious path to build a meaningful career; you have to believe in the characters you choose and the stories you want to tell. As an actor, you look up to people who make you believe that there is so much more to this profession than just being seen on screen. Akshay said that working with Manoj Bajpayee was therefore a very special experience for him. Sharing screen space with someone whose work has influenced your own journey is both humbling and exciting. He brings an incredible depth, honesty and unpredictability to his performances, and that makes every scene more engaging. Our face-off in Gajab Raat gave me the opportunity to challenge myself and bring a different energy to my performance. He added: It is a moment I will always value, both as an actor and as someone who has admired him for years. Speaking about collaborating with producer Neeraj Pandey, Akshay added, Neeraj Pandey has a distinct approach to storytelling and character development. Being part of a project backed by him gave me the opportunity to explore a role that moves beyond familiar territory. Playing someone with shades of grey is always interesting because it challenges you to look beyond the obvious and understand what drives a characters choices. I am excited for the audience to see this side of me in Gajab Raat.

Digital Desk | Mumbai, Oct 23 (IANS) Superstar Madhuri Dixit revealed that she is a fan of actress Namrata Sambheraos popular character Lolly from the Marathi comedy show Maharashtrachi Hasya Jatra. The actress not only recalled one of Lollys memorable skits but also recreated the characters viral dialogue during a conversation on the reality quiz show, Honar Crorepati.. In the upcoming special episode, the cast of Maharashtrachi Hasya Jatra joined Madhuri for a fun-filled conversation that took an unexpected turn when she expressed her fondness for Lolly. As the conversation turns to the much-loved character, Madhuri enthusiastically said, I really love it! An excited Namrata asked whether she has watched her character, to which Madhuri responded with an emphatic yes and recalled Lollys dentist skit. For the uninitiated, Lolly, portrayed by Namrata, went on to become one of the recognisable characters on Maharashtrachi Hasya Jatra. Known for her distinctive hairstyle, exaggerated expressions and amusing English, the character draws humour from everyday observations and the way people express themselves. Choreographers Geeta Kapur and Terence Lewis have also joined the trend by recreating the character in a reel. During the conversation, Namrata also opened about how she developed Lollys distinctive personality and appearance. Explaining the inspiration behind the character, she says, I grew up in a chawl in Lalbaug, where I picked up on different expressions and ways of speaking. Our writers and creative team are always trying to find something distinctive for every character. I came up with Lollys hairstyle myself because I wanted her to look different. She speaks a little English, but she has complete confidence that she speaks it well! The character came together by borrowing little things from here and there and exaggerating them. Madhuri, who comes from a Marathi-speaking family, made her debut in Marathi cinema with Bucket List in 2018.

Digital Desk | Mumbai, Oct 23 (IANS) Veteran actor-filmmaker Sachin Pilgaonkar has recalled the moment he offered his daughter, actor Shriya Pilgaonkar, her first film and was left speechless by her response. Rather than immediately accepting the opportunity, Shriya asked him to give her the script so she could read it before making a decision. The revelation came during a special episode of the quiz reality show, Kon Honar Crorepati, hosted by Madhuri Dixit. Sachin and actor Madhurani Gokhale joined Madhuri for an engaging conversation as they came to promote their movie, Kaapus Kondyachi Gosht. During the conversation, Sachin recalled watching Shriya perform in a ten-minute play after she invited him and her mother, actor Supriya Pilgaonkar, to attend. Her performance impressed him from the very first scene, making him recognise her potential as an actor. He mentioned that it was this experience that prompted him to offer her a role in a film he was planning to make. Recalling the moment, Sachin shared, The first time I saw her perform, she was in a play that was just ten minutes long. She had invited Supriya and me to watch it, and in her very first scene, I knew there was something in her. On the way home, I told her, Shriya, I feel like making a film, and I would like you to act in it. That thought came to me only after watching her work. Before that, it had never occurred to me. However, Shriyas response was not quite what he had expected. Instead of immediately agreeing to the offer, she wanted to read the script first. Sachin recalled being taken aback by her straightforward approach initially. Recalling her reply, he added, She immediately said, Give me a script. Ill read it and let you know. I fell silent. I thought, She is my daughter, after all. She read the script, liked it and did the film. She won several awards for her very first film. After that, she made her own path. She earned her own place. The film that Sachin was talking about was Ekulti Ek, a Marathi drama released in 2013, written, directed and produced by Sachin. The father-daughter story marked Shriyas debut as a lead actor on the big screen. Although Shriya is the daughter of two established actors, she has steadily built a career of her own across films and digital entertainment. She made her Hindi film debut opposite Shah Rukh Khan in Maneesh Sharmas Fan in 2016, in which she played Neha, a friend of the protagonist Gaurav. Her other film credits include House Arrest, Bhangra Paa Le, Haathi Mere Saathi, Kaadan, Ishq-e-Nadaan and Dry Day.

Digital Desk | Mumbai, Oct 23 (IANS) Shiv Sena Uddhav Balasaheb Thackeray on Friday accused the BJP government at the Centre of suffering from 'deep insecurity' and establishing a virtual Police Raj in the country. The party criticised the arrest and seven-day detention of Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) youth activists Saurav Das and Ashutosh Ranka, who were jailed for carrying the National Flag and protesting peacefully at Delhis historic Jantar Mantar against Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar. The Thackray camp, in an editorial in the party's mouthpiece, Samaana, questioned whether the government is afraid of peaceful democratic protests or terrified of young citizens holding the Indian National Flag. It condemned the government for systematically seizing public protest venues -- from Mumbai and Delhi to Patna, Lucknow, and Kolkata -- denouncing it as the outright choking of democracy. Pointing out a stark contrast, the editorial highlighted that while courts lecture idealist youths holding the Tricolour, justice appears surprisingly lenient towards perpetrators of grave crimes, citing the case of rape-convicted former politician Kuldeep Sengar, whose sentence was suspended by a judge on the bench. The editorial criticised the administration for using uniformed forces and political loyalists to suppress dissent, asserting that politicians once faced protesters directly, whereas the current regime hides behind barricades, police forces, and court injunctions. The editorial detailed how CJP activists Saurav Das and Ashutosh Ranka were locked up in Tihar Jail after defying prohibitory orders issued by Union Home Minister Amit Shah, who unilaterally removed Jantar Mantar from the list of approved protest sites. The children did not go to Jantar Mantar to play 'Dandiya'; they went to raise their voice against corrupt electoral practices. If the government were truly generous and democratic, would it lock down Jantar Mantar? Asking protesters to seek government permission before rallying against state injustice is absurd -- would a despotic regime ever grant permission for a protest against itself? questioned the editorial. Refuting arguments that unscrupulous elements might infiltrate public rallies -- a rationale cited to justify police clearances -- the Thackeray camp pointed out that prominent leaders such as Sonam Wangchuk, opposition MPs, and Parakala Prabhakar (the economist and husband of Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman) have all taken to the streets. Are these individuals also 'troublemakers'? the editorial asked, alleging that actual violence stems from government-backed elements clad in khaki executing crackdowns on students. Expressing deep disappointment over the High Courts lecturing young idealists about student unrest in France or Albania, the Uddhav Thackeray-led Shiv Sena urged the judiciary to look at the root cause rather than the symptoms. The editorial asserted that the policy under the current leadership has become clear -- citizens must not ask questions, nor should they demand accountability. The editorial concluded that when a government begins fearing peaceful, nation-loving youths holding the Tricolour, it signals not strength but the peak of political paranoia -- a phenomenon uniquely characteristic of the Modi-Shah administration.

Rasika Dugal: We need films that children can relate to
Digital Desk | Mumbai, Oct 23 (IANS) Ahead of the release of her upcoming film Little Thomas, actress Rasika Dugal has expressed her opinion on cinema for kids and said that there is a need for films that children can relate to. She feels that children deserve films made specifically for them, stories that entertain them while giving them the freedom to question, imagine and understand the world around them. Talking about the need for more childrens films, Rasika said in a statement: Cinema is a wonderful way to expand your world and fuel your imagination. Many of the thoughts and ideas we have as adults can be traced back to the films we watched growing up. We therefore need films that children can relate to films that embrace their curiosity rather than dismiss it. Rasika shared that films for children can be entertaining without being frivolous. The actress said: Childrens cinema can be entertaining without being frivolous and meaningful without becoming preachy. I would love to see more filmmakers explore stories that children can enjoy and that open up new possibilities for their imagination. Directed by Kaushal Oza, the film tells the story of Thomas, a curious young boy whose questions about where babies come from and his wish for a sibling become central to the narrative. Playing Jessie Miranda, Rasika is part of a story that looks at the world through a childs eyes and the often-unexpected conversations that emerge from childhood curiosity. Little Thomas brings this perspective to the screen through a familiar family situation that grows out of a childs innocent insistence on finding answers. The film follows seven-year-old Thomas and his family navigate life's highs and lows in 1990s Goa, echoing the style of Malgudi Days and Ruskin Bond. Talking about Rasika, she made her screen debut with a small role, in the film Anwar in 2007. She was then seen in films such as Qiss, Train Station, Tu Mera Sunday, Hamid, Manto, Lootcase and Darbaan.
Indian equity markets open higher amid buying in IT sector shares
Digital Desk | Mumbai, Oct 23 (IANS) Indian equity benchmarks opened higher on Friday tracking positive domestic cues and buying in information technology (IT) sector stocks despite weak global signals. Sensex opened at 73,665.64, an increase of over 400 points or 0.57 per cent, while Nifty started at 22,742.20, up 54.55 points or 0.24 per cent. Sectorally, the market rally was driven by the technology sector as Nifty IT rose nearly 3 per cent in morning trade, followed by Nifty MidSmall IT & Telecom which surged 1 per cent. Meanwhile, Nifty Pharma and Nifty Healthcare indices also traded marginally higher. On the other hand, Nifty Metal, Nifty Realty and Nifty MidSmall Financial Services was decreased by up to 1 per cent. Analysts said Brent crude spiking to $114 is a major negative for the economy and markets. However, the sharp decline in US 10-year yield to 4.96 per cent and rupee appreciation to 94.70 against the dollar are positives that can restrain FII selling significantly. They further said more than Rs 3 lakh crore of the IPO money out of Rs 3.73 lakh crore that went into the Jio Platform IPO in the last two days will come back into the system after allotment by next Monday. This potential liquidity surge can lift the market next week. For Nifty, RSI stood at 43.98, above its average of 38.86, while PCR eased to 0.82. Immediate support is placed at 22,600-22,650, with resistance seen at 22,900-23,000, analysts said. On Thursday, FIIs remained net sellers and offloaded equities worth Rs 3,459 crore, while DIIs provided buying support with net purchases of Rs 2,891 crore. In US markets on Thursday, Nasdaq closed lower by 2.6 per cent amid an AI-led technology sell-off. Similarly, Asian markets opened lower with Japan's Nikkei falling around 1.7 per cent.

Digital Desk | Mumbai, October 23 (IANS) Television superstar Ankita Lokhande stood by Isha Malviya in an emotional moment at the screening of the latters Bollywood debut film Tum Mere Ho. Ankita was seen gently wiping the younger actresss tears and comforting her as she seemed to have become overwhelmed at her big Bollywood debut. A video from the event captured by IANS shows Ankita holding Ishas face affectionately and wiping away her tears as Isha struggles to contain her emotions. Isha, visibly overwhelmed, was seen smiling through her tears as Ankita continued to comfort her. Isha attended the event in a shimmery plum-purple outfit with a matching draped cape, while Ankita opted for a silver-grey draped ensemble paired with a white skirt. Actor Gurmeet Choudhary, who stars opposite Isha in the film, was also present. Dressed in a black embellished outfit and sunglasses, Gurmeet stood beside the actresses as both the girls shared an emotional moment. The moment brought back memories of the bond Ankita and Isha shared on Bigg Boss 17. The two have often expressed affection for each other, with Ankita treating Isha like her younger sister and Isha looking up to the actress as an elder sister. During their time on the reality show, Ankita was seen standing by Isha during one of the most emotionally challenging phases of her journey inside the house. The situation had become tense when Ishas former boyfriend, Abhishek Kumar, was already a contestant and her then-boyfriend, Samarth Jurel, entered the house as a wildcard contestant. The unexpected development placed Isha in an emotionally difficult position, with her past and then present relationship colliding on National Television. As Isha struggled to process the situation, Ankita was seen supporting her, encouraging her to remain calm and think carefully before making decisions.
