As Ramayana: Part 1 arrived in theatres on November 5, Lara Dutta marked the occasion with an emotional note reflecting on her experience of being part of the ambitious mythological drama. The actress, who essays Kaikeyi, the third wife of King Dashrath and mother of Bharat, spoke about the responsibility of portraying a character she described as one of the most misunderstood women in history. Sharing her thoughts on the films release day, Lara recalled that being part of a story larger than oneself had been a long-standing wish. She wrote, What began many years ago as a fervent wish to be a part of something greater than oneself. Greater than the collective. Something that transcends time itself something woven into the very fabric of our being. And today, that wish finds its place in a story as timeless as eternity. The actress also reflected on the complexities of Kaikeyi, emphasising that she wanted to bring out the characters humanity rather than simply rely on perceptions that have shaped her portrayal over generations. She said, What an extraordinary privilege to portray a mother who has perhaps been one of the most misunderstood women in history. To be entrusted with the responsibility of bringing alive her humanity her angst, her vulnerabilities, her guilt and her remorse. A woman who changed the course of history. Or perhaps, one could say, set it upon the path it was always destined to take. Expressing gratitude for the opportunity, Lara added, I am humbled. I am deeply grateful. Today, this divine story comes to you. And I hope, in my own small way, I will do justice to Mata Kaikeyi. That you will look beyond the perceptions of centuries and embrace her for the pivotal role she played in bringing a divine prophecy to fruition. Jai Shree Ram. She also thanked director Nitesh Tiwari and producer Namit Malhotra for trusting her with the role, while acknowledging the films cast and crew. In a particularly personal moment, Lara mentioned missing her father and wishing he could have witnessed the milestone with her.

'I Try To Play With Smile On My Face': Tickner On Perspective After Wife's Battle With Cancer
New Zealand: New Zealand fast bowler Blair Tickner opened up on his perspective on life and cricket after having seen his wife, Sarah, battle cancer treatment following a leukaemia diagnosis in April 2024. Tickner, who starred with the bat during New Zealand's first ODI against India in Auckland, spoke about how his life and career have panned out, opening up about his wife coming through eight months of cancer treatment. My life, I guess it's been up and down, Tickner said on the eve of New Zealand's 2nd ODI against India at Hnry Stadium in Wellington. It's amazing to have Sarah and my family (get) through it all, and I guess now I'm just trying to enjoy my cricket, and I've probably been a bit more myself. I've had different parts of my career. I guess (at the) start of my career, I felt a lot of pressure. Then we had Sarah's cancer treatment; it was hard, and now I'm sort of at the back end, and I'm looking forward to just having fun, really, and it's what I'm trying to do, to (be) myself really. He added that the period taught him that cricket is an important part of his career, but not the only thing he has in his life. I try to play with a smile on my face, and it's a lot more than cricket, obviously, he said. It's done a lot for me, but I know that at the end of the day I'm going to go home to my daughter and my wife and I'm pretty happy and pretty lucky to do that. So yeah, cricket's a little bit less than that. The speedster made a strong 34-ball 23 from No. 11 in the series opener against India, with his four sixes being a highlight of New Zealand's 185. Reflecting on the knock, he joked that he would like to move up the order and maybe even to No. 3. Yeah, there were a few conversations before I went out, because I batted alright against England last time I was here (in Wellington), so I gave him (Duffy) a bit of (stick) for that. I'm happy to move up to 10 - I just have to slowly make my way up to No. 3, I think. In the Wellington ODI against England, Tickner had made an unbeaten 18 in his team's two-wicket win on a low-scoring surface. He hopes that the venue will dish out a similar, adding that conditions in ODIs are more helpful to the bowlers than in the T20Is. Yeah, we saw last year against England as well - there was a little bit more in the wicket then, especially here (in Wellington), Tickner said. As a bowler (I'm) hoping for that. I don't want to be at a game where 400 chase(s) 400, so I'm looking forward to a bit of extra bounce, hopefully a bit of nip off the wicket. In the Wellington ODI against England, Tickner had made an unbeaten 18 in his team's two-wicket win on a low-scoring surface. He hopes that the venue will dish out a similar, adding that conditions in ODIs are more helpful to the bowlers than in the T20Is. Also Read: Special Cricket Stories Article Source: IANS

Shadman Islam Stretchered Off After Twisting Ankle During Second West Indies Test
Sylhet International Cricket Stadium: Bangladesh opener Shadman Islam was stretchered off the ground after twisting his ankle during the second Test match against the West Indies at the Sylhet International Cricket Stadium here on Friday. Shadman twisted his ankle and fell while fielding on Day 2 of the contest as he grimaced in pain for a few minutes. The opener was then taken on a stretcher off the field and will be sent for scans. Shadman suffered a left ankle twist. He is under observation. We will send him for an MRI scan, Bangladesh physio Bayjedul Islam Khan said, as quoted by Cricinfo. The incident took place during the 78th over of the West Indies batting innings. Amir Jangoo had nudged one through to fine leg off Mehidy Hasan Miraz as Shadman ran from slips to chase the ball. His left ankle stuck on the turf while crouching, and he twisted it while falling down awkwardly. Hasan Mahmud ran towards him, and the physio was called before the opener was stretchered off the field. The West Indies resumed on Day 2 on 235/4. They were at 322/8 at lunch on Day 2 and were bowled out for 356 as Shadman's availability for the Test is yet to be confirmed. He did not come out to open as Nayeem Hasan and Tanzid Hasan Tamim began Bangladesh's charge at the top of the order. Meanwhile, a member from the Bangladesh Cricket Board stated that Shadman's participation in the remainder of the Test is unlikely. Look, I think it will be difficult for him to make a comeback in the Test match. Let's hope for the best, but we are not very confident about his availability, a member said, as quoted by Cricbuzz. Shadman had scored a century in the first innings of the opening Test. The West Indies are leading the two-match Test series after having won the series opener by eight wickets. Meanwhile, a member from the Bangladesh Cricket Board stated that Shadman's participation in the remainder of the Test is unlikely. Look, I think it will be difficult for him to make a comeback in the Test match. Let's hope for the best, but we are not very confident about his availability, a member said, as quoted by Cricbuzz.
