Dharmendra: A life lived king-size
MUMBAI: Dharmendra made a soft landing in Hindi cinema singing Mukeshs Mujhko is raat ki tanhai mein awaaz na do in Arjun Hingoranis Dil Bhi Tera Hum Bhi Tere (1960), a sad, star-crossed love story about the poor and disempowered in Mumbai, who are unable to rise above their circumstances. The film also showcased a facet of Dharmendras personality that he came to be identified with for the rest of his lifehis unquestionable handsomeness. The audience could not take its eyes off the chaste good looks and trim body he sported as a young street salesman-turned-boxer. A few years down the line, the screen caught fire, metaphorically, in O P Ralhans Phool Aur Patthar (1966) when Garam-Dharam, as he later came to be called, loomed over a sleeping Meena Kumari and took his shirt off to thoughtfully shield her from the cold. At a time when fitness was not quite the characteristic of a Hindi film hero, Dharmendra rang in a new paradigm of robustness. A legacy carried forward by the likes of Vinod Khanna and Salman Khan, and practically every single contemporary male star. However, there has been a significant difference: Dharmendras was not about sculpted, gym-toned, six-pack abs but a rugged, healthy male ideal. His masculinity before getting taken over by the action and stunts and loudness in the 80s was also underlined with a quiet tenderness, overwhelming romance and playful humour. Dharmendra remained impervious to the superstardom of his contemporaries, Rajesh Khanna and Amitabh Bachchan, but didnt get celebrated as much for his own. Despite the diversity of roles in over 300 films and 65 years in the film industry, dotted with innumerable hits, being the He-Man ended up defining Dharmendra and confining him as well. But for every action entertainer like Raj Khoslas Mera Gaon Mera Desh (1971), and Nasir Hussains Yaadon Ki Baaraat (1973), there was Hrishikesh Mukherjees hilarious Chupke Chupke, and the same filmmakers poignant Satyakam. And of course, there was Ramesh Sippys Sholay. Through the 80s, 90s and 2000s, his career began sliding, and his own children and nephewSunny, Bobby, Esha and Abhay Deoltook to showbiz. He later retired to his farmhouse in Lonavala. It took Sriram Raghavan to celebrate the Garam-Dharam magic in Johnny Gaddar (2007). And, ironically, its Raghavans Ikkis, a few weeks away from release, thatd perhaps be his last, and posthumous, performance. From a martyr in Haqeeqat to the father of one in the Raghavan film, hopefully, it would be the fitting finale for the multi-layered person and actor Dharmendra was.

Level up: PMO to babus on cabinet notes
NEW DELHI: In a sharp message to the bureaucracy, the Prime Ministers Office (PMO) has ordered all ministries to stop working in silos, drop blame games and prepare only high quality cabinet notes that match Indian policies and projects with global standards. The strongly worded directive, issued last week, asks secretaries to shed routine bureaucratic mindset and focus on value addition while drafting or commenting on cabinet notes proposals which ministers submit before the government for approval on major policy decisions. The PMO made it clear that these instructions reflect Prime Minister Narendra Modis personal views and must be strictly followed by all. Finalisation of cabinet notes should be monitored regularly to avoid delays. Ministries must focus on value addition rather than routine comments, the note reads. It emphasises early inter-ministerial consultations and, if required, face-to-face meetings to iron out differences instead of letting files gather dust in endless back-and-forth. The PMO said: Proposals submitted to Cabinet Committees relating to various projects/schemes/programmes and policies should, wherever possible, incorporate details of benchmarking with global standards with respect to that proposal. The PMO also warned against the tendency to push files with narrow departmental views, and to keep in mind the overall public interest while conceptualising a policy proposal. Departments should not focus only on their limited turf but look at the larger national perspective, it stated, especially in multi-ministry schemes.To ensure speed and quality, the finalisation of every cabinet note will now be tracked closely. Ministries have been told to incorporate global benchmarking wherever possible so that Indias policies match the best in the world. Officials say repeated logjams and inter-ministry turf wars in recent months have prompted the tough directive from the PMO. With several big-ticket reforms and infrastructure projects in the pipeline, the government wants to cut red tape and deliver faster results, a source said. Onus on pulling together in same direction A senior officer said that currently each secretary optimises for his/her own ministrys interest rather than the countrys interest. When a major infrastructure project involves five ministries, the Prime Minister often gets five different agendas that pull in different directions. This needs to end at the outset, the officer told this newspaper

Halt ops, give us 3-mth window: Maoists to govt
RAIPUR: The Maharashtra-Madhya Pradesh-Chhattisgarh (MMC) Special Zonal Committee of the banned CPI (Maoist) has sought time until February 15, 2026, to arrive at a collective decision on surrendering arms and accepting the governments rehabilitation package. The MMC committee operates in the dense tri-junction forest region of Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh a strategically vital corridor used by Maoist cadres to move between different areas of the Dandakaranya Special Zone.

This is well within the March 31, 2026, deadline set by the government.

As per directives of governments and desire of the native population, troops are committed to bring an end to the left-wing extremism as early as possible. Request to convey message on radio Maoist leader Anant requested that his message be run on radio to ensure it reaches cadres soon.
