The Tamil Nadu government has expressed its contrary view on the Rajiv Gandhi assassination case convict Perarivalan (a) Arivu’s parole plea during the hearing at the Madras High Court on Monday. This comes after his mother Arputhammal had moved the court on humanitarian grounds given her son’s prevailing health conditions, at a time when many of his fellow jail inmates were testing coronavirus positive. The hearing has been adjourned till&nbsp;August 12.</p>

<p>Although Perarivalan was convicted in 1991 under the grounds of having provided two 9-volt batteries which were used in the bomb that killed Rajiv Gandhi, it has been established later that he merely procured the batteries without knowing about the conspiracy or what the batteries would be used for.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Senior advocate Shri.R.Shunmugasundaram, Perarivalan’s counsel argued that he deserves parole on the health grounds, pointing out that the government’s counter-affidavit too makes mention of the various ailments that the convict is suffering from.&nbsp;</p>

<p>However, another senior advocate Shri. A. Natarajan, the State Public Prosecutor rejected the same saying that prisoners are entitled to leave only once in two years. It was added that Arivu had been last granted parole from November 2019 to January this year.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Further Shri. A. Natarajan, emphasized that the pendency of the investigation of Rajiv Gandhi Assassination by Multi-disciplinary Monitoring Agency (MDMA) is the reason behind the undue delay of the governor's decision on the cabinet recommendation dated 09.09.2018 of the TN Govt.</p>

<p>The MDMA, a special wing of CBI, was appointed following the report of the Jain Commisison to probe the larger conspiracy in the former PM's assassination case, which involved persons of other countries.&nbsp;</p>

<p>However, it is important to recall that initially, CBI had registered an FIR and which was subsequently tried as Calendar Case no. 3/92 against 26 accused including Arivu. A split trial case in Calendar Case No. 11/92 was pending against LTTE leader Prabhakaran and 2 others, wherein MDMA prayer for further investigation and the same was allowed in 2000.&nbsp;</p>

<p>In 2013, Perarivalan prayed before the Designated TADA Court, Chennai for effective monitoring of the pending probe. But this plea before the court faced stiff opposition from the CBI which was investigating the case. That case too was rejected and it was stated that Perarivalan did not have the locus to know the status of pending MDMA investigation.</p>

<p>In 2017, CBI officer Thiyagarajan had informed the Supreme Court about an error it had made while recording Perarivalan’s confession. Then too, the apex court mentioned that the progress of the MDMA investigation was not functioning satisfactorily. That was what led the Supreme Court to rule that Arivu could be released under Rule 161 by the State Government.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Recently too, TN govt. informed that TN Governor Banwarilal Purohit is awaiting the final report of the MDMA, which is completely contrary to their earlier view of former CM J.Jayalalithaa's decision to release seven prisoners including Perarivalan.<br />

<p>As Sanjay Dutt turns a year older today on his 61st birthday, the actor teased the first look of his new character Adheera from upcoming film ‘KGF: Chapter 2’.&nbsp;</p>

<p>In the poster released, Sanjay Dutt is styled like a warrior character from the series ‘Vikings’. Sharing the poster, Sanjay wrote, “It’s been a pleasure working on this film and I couldn’t have asked for a better birthday gift.”</p>

<p>In reports it’s said that director Prashanth Neel ensured that Adheera remained a mystery, with hints dropped about his massive stomach for power and violence. Even though Adheera is preset as a cruel master, he comes across as a man of his words and a loyal brother.&nbsp;</p>

<p>For those unversed, in ‘KGF Chapter 1’, Adheera’s elder brother Suryavardhan hands over the reins of the gold mines of Kolar to his son Garuda, assuming that Adheera can’t handle political challenges. Adheera respects his brother’s choice and excuses himself from the power struggle. But, he vows that he will return and take over the gold mines if something should happen to Garuda. And that is what exactly happens by the end of KGF.&nbsp;</p>

<p>AG&nbsp;Perarivalan (a) Arivu, a life convict who has languished 29 years in jail, in connection with the Rajiv Gandhi assassination case has approached the Mumbai High Court seeking details related to the early release of Bollywood actor Sanjay Dutt, who was also convicted under the Arms Act.

<p>In March 2016, Perarivalan had sought details under the Right to Information Act (RTI), regarding the legal procedures that led to Dutt’s early release on compassionate grounds. However, it is stated that the response from the Yervada Jail Information Officer and higher authority- Pune district Information office was lax. Hence Perarivalan’s lawyers have approached the Mumbai High court requesting action against the erring officials and also seeking more details on Dutt’s release.&nbsp;</p>

<p>When the Tamil Nadu government had earlier allowed Arivu out on parole, the state’s advocate general had pointed out that the right and powers to grant parole solely remained with the state government.

'Parineeta' completes 15 years, Vidya Balan, Sanjay Dutt go down the memory lane

<p>Who doesn't like a tragic love story? One gets a strange sense of satisfaction to watch unrequited love on the big screen. You can cry buckets, relate to it some way or the other and however be the ending, come out of the theater with happy tears.&nbsp;</p>

<p>In the last decade or two- the one name that comes to mind when one thinks of tragic love-dramas in Bollywood is Sanjay Leela Bhansali. Bhansali, with his opulence, over-the-top dramas has made unrequited love look stunning on the big screen. So when the trailer of filmmaker Abhishek Varman's 'Kalank' first came out- one couldn't help but notice the Bhansali influence in every frame. But does 'Kalank' make for a Bhansali level of tragic love-story? Only in parts.</p>

<p>A story, which is loosely inspired by Yash Chopra's 'Trishul', is set in Husnabad, outside of Lahore in the year 1946. Its a time when India's is on the brink of partition and tension between Hindu and Muslim extremist is palpable. And amid this hate blossoms love between two uncanny people. Roop (Alia Bhatt) the rebellious woman trapped in a loveless marriage and Zafar(Varun Dhawan) an angst-ridden bastard who has grown up in the lanes of Hiramandi, the famous red-light area of Lahore. &nbsp;</p>

<p><img alt="kalank" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="ae6b53f0-7a39-43a3-9331-897f9cc46689" src="//cdn.wionews.com/sites/default/files/inline-images/kalank7.jpg" /></p>

<p>The two are not meant to be together. She is an educated woman, wife of a rich man, Dev Chaudhary (Aditya Roy Kapur) who just to spite her in-laws goes to learn music from Bahaar Begum(Madhuri Dixit) in the forbidden Hiramandi. He only knows how to hate, and uses Roop initially to destroy Dev's father( Sanjay Dutt) but finds himself falling in love instead.&nbsp;</p>

<p><img alt="k" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="fb63c0ef-4a65-45f3-9f87-db898e61f811" src="//cdn.wionews.com/sites/default/files/inline-images/madhuri%20kalank2.jpg" /></p>

<p>Roop and Dev's forbidden love is the core of 'Kalank' and the Hindu-Muslim riots form the backdrop of the story. With a huge budget (Karan Johar and Sajid Nadiadwala are co-producers) Varman, who also writes the screenplay, presents a fictional world which is opulent and visually stunning. In Varman's version of Hiramandi, Ramleela spills out the streets in a very elaborate fashion, where Ravan is burnt by multiple Rams emerging from the water and where canals in Hiramandi are decorated by flower petals.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Binod Pradhan does complete justice in capturing the grandeur on screen making scenes look beautiful and sets the tone of the film just right. Music by Pritam is hummable with the titke track standing out the most.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Among the actors, Varun and Alia get the maximum screen time. Alia, who has in a short span of time proved her mettle as an actor, delivers a restraint performance as the strong-willed, stubborn, rebellious Roop. She is vulnerable in love but also angry at how her life has turned out. And Alia delivers these emotions well on screen. Varun, on the other hand, struggles a bit to show the angst that his character Zafar has. You have seen several prominent actors from Big B to SRK- play such flawed heroes on screen. So Varun has big shoes to fill. While the actor tries, it is the screenplay that lets him down. His anger for his parents is discussed to great length but somehow you are unable to connect to him.&nbsp;</p>

<p><img alt="k" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="0c38b4ca-a52f-40b8-bb81-dc6994423f29" src="//cdn.wionews.com/sites/default/files/inline-images/Untitled%20design%20-%202019-04-17T150037.004.jpg" /></p>

<p>The other two love-stories, unfortunately, take a back seat. I wish writer Shibani Bhatija had invested more on Aditya-Sonakshi and Sanjay-Madhuri's track. Those two stories had so much more to explore. Aditya, in fact, is pitch perfect as the righteous, lonesome Dev who is stuck between his two wives- one of whom he dearly loves. Sonakshi too holds her own in the limited screen time that she has. It's a treat to watch Madhuri and Sanjay on screen together albeit for a brief period. Wish they had more scenes together! Kunal Khemmu makes an impressive cameo as well.&nbsp;</p>

<p><img alt="kalank" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="6022d85a-3e99-466a-be22-84e943cdeb9d" src="//cdn.wionews.com/sites/default/files/inline-images/Untitled%20design%20-%202019-04-17T150000.060.jpg" /></p>

<p>The actors are all good but their performances are ultimately marred by very sketchy writing. Despite a stretched first half, the story fails to establish why Roop and Zafar are drawn towards each other. The second half redeems the film to a great extent where the story picks up with a very well shot climax.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The makers take copious amount of liberty in telling a period-saga where outskirts of Lahore have mountains, streams and rocky shores similar to Ladakh and where the state of Rajputana (erstwhile Rajasthan) has meadows and snow-capped mountains in the background. There is also a bizarre scene where Varun Dhawan takes on a bull in a arena in what appears to be in Afganistan!&nbsp;</p>

<p>In the end, 'Kalank' suffers from a Bhansali hangover- it even copies a few scenes from his films- and while there is no harm in doing that, the story is not as vividly told as Bhansali skillfully does. And that's where 'Kalank' falters.&nbsp;</p>

<p>'Kalank' visually stuns, has good performances from its actors, but it doesn't stay with you for too long which a film of this scale ideally should.&nbsp;</p>

'Kalank' review: Alia Bhatt-Varun Dhawan's tragic love story is visually stunning but fails to connect

<p>From playing an innocent small-town girl to playing a bubbly, cheerful girl in 'Bareilly Ki Barfi'&nbsp;Kriti Sanon has had quite an interesting run in the Bollywood, but she seems to have found her most "honored" role as Parvati Bai in the upcoming feature `Panipat`.<br />
<br />
Raving about her role, the actor on Thursday wrote effusively on Instagram, "Parvati Bai - From being a loving woman to being a strong constant support for her husband through all ups and downs to being a fearless force that would go to every extent to defend her people".</p>

From playing an innocent small-town girl to playing a bubbly, cheerful girl in 'Bareilly Ki Barfi' Kriti Sanon has had quite an interesting run in the Bollywood, but she seems to have found her most "honored" role as Parvati Bai in the upcoming feature `Panipat`.

Kriti Sanon honoured to play Parvati Bai in 'Panipat', says she is both loving and fearless

<p>With only a week left for the release of Ashutosh Gowariker’s film ‘Panipat’, there seems to have erupted a controversy around the film.&nbsp;</p>

<p>In the film, Kriti Sanon can be seen playing Arjun Kapoor’s wife, Parvatibai. In the trailer, as Arjun Kapoor’s character starts to leave for the battle, she says, "Maine suna hai Peshwa jab akele muhim par jaate hain to ek Mastani ke saath laut te hain (I have heard when Peshwa leaves for a battle alone, he returns with a Mastani)."</p>

<p>This dialogue has irked the eighth-generation descendant of the Peshwa, Nawabzada Shadab Ali Bahadur who said in an interview, "The particular dialogue in the movie is in bad taste and highly objectionable. The way it has been used, presents a bad picture of not only Mastani Sahiba but also of the Peshwa to our audience and to young minds unaware of Maratha history. Mastani Bai was the bonafide wife of Peshwa Baji Rao and not just another woman."</p>

<p>"After seeing that portion in the trailer of the movie, I have sent notices to the producers and the director to remove that portion or make necessary changes. If they don’t respond, I’ll move to the court against them," he added. <a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/sanjay-dutt-kriti-sanon-and-arjun-kapoor-mean-business-in-new-panipat-posters-259846">See all posters here.&nbsp;</a></p>

Panipat: Peshwa Bajirao's descendant sends notice to makers over Kriti Sanon's Mastani dialogue

<p>We loved them in the 'Munna Bhai'series and now actors Sanjay Dutt and Arshad Warsi are reuniting for a film. The two's camaraderie as Munna and Circuit in Rajkumar Hirani's hit films is still remembered. And while there has been a lot of talk around the fact that the two would reprise their roles in the third part of the film, the two actors are in fact pairing up for a different film.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
According to media reports, the film will go on floors early next year. Speaking to a daily, actor Arshad Warsi said, "Sanju and I will start working on a film next year. It’s a crazy script, a project by Sajid-Farhad. The film is likely to go on floor by March-April next year. We’ll probably head to Budapest for the first schedule of the film."<br />
<br />
Warsi also revealed that Dutt would be playing a blind don and he would play his eyes."The challenge is that nobody can know that he is blind, and I cannot tell anyone that he is blind. I am actually directing him throughout the film. It’s quite a fun script," Warsi further added.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
While 'Lage Raho Munna Bhai' released in 2006, the two actors did feature in other films 'Zila Ghaziabad' (2013) and 'Double Dhamaal' (2011) in the recent past.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
There were also reports earlier that Hirani would be planning the third sequel of his hit franchise soon. In fact, Warsi had even stated, "I do know that the script is pretty much ready. I do know from Raju (Rajkumar Hirani) that the film will go on floors this year - either mid or the end of the year. The work on the script is going on. As of now, yes it's Sanju and me. These are the things I've been told."<br />
<br />
There may not be any news on 'Munna Bhai 3' but fans would surely now w3ait for Munna and Circuit to create magic on screen again in a new comedy.&nbsp;</p>

'Panipat' trailer: Arjun Kapoor, Kriti Sanon and Sanjay Dutt narrate an important chapter of history

Sanjay Dutt, Kriti Sanon and Arjun Kapoor’s looks from their upcoming film ‘Panipat’ have now been released as the actors shared fresh posters from the film. Sanjay plays Ahmad Shah Durrani whereas Kriti plays Parvati Bai in Ashutosh Gowariker’s ambitious period piece and Arjun plays the role of Maratha leader Sadashivrao Bhau.

Sanjay Dutt, Kriti Sanon and Arjun Kapoor’s looks from their upcoming film ‘Panipat’ have now been released as the actors shared fresh posters from the film. Sanjay plays Ahmad Shah Durrani whereas Kriti plays Parvati Bai in Ashutosh Gowariker’s ambitious period piece and Arjun plays the role of Maratha leader Sadashivrao Bhau. The trio have reportedly gone under intense training for their character while Arjun who got bald for the role even had to hide it from the cameras for some months. The film is based on the third battle of Panipat, which was fought between the northern expeditionary force of the Maratha Empire and the invading forces of the King of Afghanistan, Durrani. Back then he had two Indian allies - the Rohilla Afghans of the Doab and Shuja-ud-Daula, the Nawab of Awadh. The event is significant in modern Indian history as it halted the march of the Maratha empire, eventually leading to the rise of the British in India.

I like the character of Parvati Bai, especially the way Ashu sir has written it. It did attract me as I have never done something like this before. I was initially confused like how come he thought of me to play this Marathi girl because I am a North Indian, Punjabi. I was a little surprised. But I did not want to let go of the opportunity to do a period film with a director, who is a legend in that space. It is very different from what I have done and so it becomes exciting and challenging at the same time. That is how you break certain barriers.” The film also stars Mohnish Bahl, Padmini Kolhapure and Zeenat Aman. Produced by Sunita Gowariker and Rohit Shelatkar’s company Vision World, it is scheduled to release on December 6.

'Bhuj: The Pride of India' filming begins

Action director Veeru Devgan no more; Shah Rukh Khan, Sanjay Dutt, Abhishek Bachchan pay respect

<p>Perhaps one of the biggest draws of Abhishek Varman's 'Kalank' is the fact that it reunites '90's popular pair Sanjay Dutt and Madhuri Dixit on screen after 22 years. And while fans are excited to see this reunion onscreen, Sanjay Dutt admitted that he was nervous initially to share screen space with Madhuri.&nbsp;</p>

<p>In an interview to a daily, the actor revealed how the two bonded over their children while working on 'Kalank'. "It was great to work with her again. I was a little nervous, but she made things easy. She's got terrific command as an actor. We spoke about our kids. In fact, I made my children [Shahraan and Iqra] meet her when they dropped by on the sets," the actor said.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The two actors were rumoured to be dating in the 1990s. The actress eventually married Dr Sriram Nene and the couple has two sons. Dutt, meanwhile, married Manyata and the couple has twins- a boy and a girl.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
Interestingly, when Madhuri was asked if it was awkward to share screen space with Dutt, the actress said, "We have worked together earlier. So there was no re-bonding or awkwardness or anything. I have worked with Anil Kapoor ji (in Total Dhamaal) and Sanjay after a long time and it was great. There is a kind of comfort and I know how the scenes will be, how the action and reaction is going to be."</p>

<p>Madhuri plays Bahaar Begum in the film- a role that was initially offered to Sridevi. After her demise, the role went to Madhuri Dixit.&nbsp;</p>

<p>'Kalank' has been produced by Karan Johar and also features Varun Dhawan, <a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/alia-bhatt-will-not-be-cating-her-vote-in-lok-sabha-elections-2019-heres-why-210664">Alia Bhatt,</a> Sonakshi Sinha and Aditya Roy Kapur.&nbsp;</p>

Karan Johar latest production 'Kalank' is special for many reasons. Not only is the film a muilti-starrer but it brings together on-screen pairing of Sanjay Dutt and Madhuri Dixit after over two decades.

Karan Johar latest production 'Kalank' is special for many reasons. Not only is the film a muilti-starrer but it brings together on-screen pairing of Sanjay Dutt and Madhuri Dixit after over two decades. As the entire cast came together for the teaser launch event on Tuesday, Dutt mentioned that how he would want to work more with his longtime co-star. Sanjay and Madhuri were one of the most popular reel-life couples and worked together in several hit films in the '90s such as 'Saajan', 'Khalnayak', 'Thandedar', and 'Ilaaka'. Asked how it was to team up with Madhuri for the film, Sanjay told reporters, "It felt good to work together after a long time. I'll try to work more with her." Madhuri said reuniting with former co-stars is always enriching. Also read: 'Kalank' was initially to star Shah Rukh Khan, Ajay Devgn, Kajol and Rani Mukerji?

Kalank: Karan Johar gets emotional as he shares first glimpse of the film

<p>Anyone who calls themselves a Hindi movie fan will remember when they saw Arshad Warsi and Sanjay Dutt together in lead roles together on the big screen. The duo that made the characters of Munna Bhai and Circuit famous are said to make a return on the screen in a film from the much-loved franchise.&nbsp;</p>

<p>In an interview recently with PTI, Arshad Warsi confirmed that work on Munna Bhai third instalment will start soon. He said, “I do know that the script is pretty much ready. I do know from Rajkumar Hirani that the film will go on floors this year - either mid or the end of the year. The work on the script is going on. As of now, yes it's Sanjay Dutt and me. These are the things I've been told.”</p>

<p>The first film, ‘Munna Bhai MBBS’ released in 2003, and its sequel ‘Lage Raho Munna Bhai’ released three years later in 2006. Now after more than a decade, the duo will be seen making a comeback together. However, there is no information on the female lead. While the first had Gracy Singh and second had Vidya Balan; it will be interesting to see who will take up the role in the next film.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Divulging more details on the role, Arshad said, “I tend to do my film and forget about my character and I move on to the next one. I tend to forget, which is what happened with Munna Bhai. When I came for the second part, I was doing the same role differently. I realised something isn't quite right. Then Rajkumar Hirani and I saw a couple of scenes from the first one and remembered how I should be doing. This time too, I'm sure I'll do it.”&nbsp;</p>

<p>Arshad was recently seen in a reprised version of his own song ‘Aankh Maarey’ that was picturised on film ‘Simmba’ cast Ranveer Singh and Sara Ali Khan. The song also saw the ‘Golmaal’ cast come together including Arshad.&nbsp;</p>

Arshad Warsi confirms 'Munna Bhai 3' script is ready, to go on floors this year

<p>As Manisha Koirala gears for her next where she essays the role of iconic late actress Nargis Dutt in the upcoming film titled “Sanju”, she opened up in an interview about her life before and after cancer and her future projects.</p>

<p>In the interview, Manisha spoke gladly about her post-recovery phase and said, "I am embracing life with open arms! I’m doing things which I love. I feel I can do a few things, but I’m fully present because I’m enjoying them. I love nature, hiking, trekking, taking long walks... so I’m doing all that."</p>

<p>Manish made her comeback to Hindi films with “Dear Maya”, post-recovery and will be seen next in three upcoming films. Speaking about the experience, Manisha said, "Have you heard of this Italian movie called Il Postino? I love Pablo Neruda’s poetry and this film is about his encounter with a postman, who used to bring his letters. The actor, Massimo Troisi, who played the latter, passed away after the film was shot. I know the value of an actor because cinema and acting is everything for me. If you love your work so much that this could be the last thing you would be doing before you say goodbye to the world, then it’s the best thing. I’ve rediscovered my love for acting."</p>

<p>Manisha will now be seen in “Sanju” biopic and on the role she said, "There was a trial of Bombay at Ajanta Theatre owned by Dutt Saab. After seeing it, he called me and said, ‘Manisha, you reminded us of Nargis Duttji.’ That was a massive compliment for me! After so many years, I am playing her. But I was not very confident. I wasn’t sure if I would be able to do justice to the role. So, I was nervous but Rajji (Rajkumar Hirani) and his team were thoroughly prepared. We did look tests, held discussions and he made me watch documentaries on her. Then I met Priya Dutt, who sent me a book written about her parents. I never got a chance to talk to Baba (Sanjay Dutt) about her, but all this work helped me perform."</p>

<p>On her association with Sanjay Dutt, she said that she is connected to him since her childhood and that she had become her fan when “Rocky” released. She recalled that she was in the sixth or seventh grade at that time. She had stuck up pictures of Sanjay Dutt behind her almirah door.&nbsp;</p>
