Download or read book Rajesh Khanna written by Yasser Usman and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2014-12-05 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The untold story of Hindi cinema’s first superstar Obsessed female fans routinely sent him love letters written in blood. Hysterical crowds camped outside his house to catch a glimpse of the superstar. And the frenzy unleashed by his public appearances was enough to give law-enforcers a nightmare. In the 1970s, Rajesh Khanna achieved the kind of fame that no film star had ever experienced before—or has since. But having climbed to the pinnacle of success, he then saw it all vanish. And through it all, he remained a fighter till the very end. In this riveting biography, journalist Yasser Usman examines Rajesh Khanna’s dramatic, colourful life in its entirety: from little-known facts about his childhood to the low-down on his relationships and rivalries, from his ambitious hopes to his deep-seated insecurities. What emerges is a tantalizingly written, meticulously researched chronicle of a fascinating and mercurial man—one who was both loved and feared by those closest to him. It is a story that encapsulates the glittering, seductive, cut-throat world of Bollywood at its best and its worst.
Download or read book Khullam Khulla written by Rishi Kapoor and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2017-01-15 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Son of a famous father. Father of a famous son. I am the hyphen between them. Only, Rishi Kapoor was and is so much more. Few actors in Hindi cinema have had this sort of a career arc: from the gawky adolescent pining for his schoolteacher (Mera Naam Joker, 1970) to the naughty ninety-year-old (Kapoor & Sons, 2016), Rishi Kapoor has regaled audiences for close to fifty years. He won a National Award for his debut, became an overnight sensation with his first film as a leading man (Bobby, 1973), and carved a niche for himself with a string of romantic musical blockbusters in an era known for its angst-ridden films. He was the youth icon that is still the toast of the satellite TV circuit. The songs he lip-synced are the bread and butter of all radio stations even today. Then there was the second coming after a brief hiatus in the 1990s - as one of the finest actors in mainstream Hindi cinema with powerhouse performances in films like Do Dooni Chaar, D-Day, Agneepath and others.Characteristically candid, Rishi Kapoor brings Punjabi brio to the writing of Khullam Khulla. This is as up close and personal a biography as any fan could have hoped for. He writes about growing up in the shadow of a legendary father, skipping school to act in Mera Naam Joker, the workings of the musical hits of the era, an encounter with Dawood Ibrahim, his heroines (their working relationship, the gossip and the frisson that was sometimes real), his approach to his craft, his tryst with clinical depression, and more. A foreword by Ranbir Kapoor and a stirring afterword by Neetu Singh bookend the warmest, most dil se biography an Indian star has ever penned.

Download or read book Zen written by Osho and published by St. Martin's Griffin. This book was released on 2016-07-26 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Zen: The Path of Paradox, Osho suggests Zen as a possible bridge between East and West, and between the scientific and the spiritual. “Without science, the East has lost much; without meditation, the West has lost much. I am trying to bring together East and West, because together they will create the whole.” Osho encourages the reader to throw off the accumulated “knowing” of a lifetime—to let go of physical, mental, and emotional tensions, to relax into the flow of an extraordinary discourse and become receptive to the present moment and the potential within. Osho challenges readers to examine and break free of the conditioned belief systems and prejudices that limit their capacity to enjoy life in all its richness. He has been described by the Sunday Times of London as one of the “1000 Makers of the 20th Century” and by Sunday Mid-Day (India) as one of the ten people—along with Gandhi, Nehru, and Buddha—who have changed the destiny of India. Since his death in 1990, the influence of his teachings continues to expand, reaching seekers of all ages in virtually every country of the world.

Download or read book Stars from Another Sky written by Saʻādat Ḥasan Manṭo and published by Penguin Random House India Pvt.Limited. This book was released on 2010 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unforgettable reminiscences about the eccentric, glamorous, yet angst-ridden Hindi film world of the 1940s. Saadat Hasan Manto, one of the greatest short story writers of the Urdu language, was also a film journalist and story-writer for the Hindi film industry in Bombay. As an insider he was privy to the most private moments of the men and women who have dazzled generations of audiences. In this series of sketches, Ashok Kumar, the screen idol of yore, emerges as a shy, yet brilliant actor, forever looking to flee the eager advances of his female fans; Nargis comes across as just another young girl looking for companionship among her peers before she steps on the ladder that will forever take her away from the comforts of an ordinary middle-class life; and Shyam-the dashing, handsome hero-is portrayed as a straightforward, flirtatious young man pining for the woman he loves. Manto also describes in detail the obsessions of Sitara Devi; the unfulfilled desires of Paro Devi; and the intriguing twists and turns which transform Neena Devi from an ordinary housewife into a pawn in the hands of film companies. He writes with relish about the bunglings of the comedian V.H. Desai and the incredible dedication of Nawab Kaashmiri to the art of acting. There are also stories about the rise of Nur Jehan as the greatest singer of her times; and the various peccadilloes of the musician, Rafiq Ghaznavi. With subjects ranging from film journalism to the sexual eccentricities of these stars, Manto brings to life a generation with his characteristic verve and honesty.

The second chapter discusses the Laws on labour welfare and their working conditions, The Factories Act, 1948, Contract Labour (Regulation and Abolition) Act, 1970, The Building and Other Constructions Workers’ (Regulation of Employment and Conditions of Service) Act, 1996, Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace (Prevention, Prohibition and Redressal) Act, 2013.

This book and the cases discussed can be very useful for advocates and lawyers handling labour/service matters.
Download or read book How Is It Love written by Simran Mittal and published by Damick Publications. This book was released on 2022-03-11 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How Is It Love? is Simran’s first professionally published book which explores the themes of contemporary love stories set in Indian states and Utah to the strained family ties of the modern era. The five short stories raise the issues of how family background impacts the lives of people in the long run which makes them vulnerable to violence, abuse and insecurities. Hidden in the layers of love and romance, the focus is on how love beyond gender, age and caste, self-love, and firm determination become the indispensable elements of healing others and oneself. Besides, another theme highlighted, stemming from mental health issues, is self-harm by a male character to show that men suffer too. The last story in the collection is not the representation of the usual terrorist activities that people come across in society, but it shows how some events make a teenager turn into a body thirsty for blood and vengeance.

Download or read book Navketan written by Sidharth Bhatia and published by Collins India. This book was released on 2011-11-03 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dev Anand has long been known as the evergreen star of Hindi cinema. Navketan, the production company he started in 1949, is as perennial too. It has come to be known for stylish, contemporary films and some of the finest film music ever produced in India.But Navketan is more than just its films. It spans a crucial phase in the growth of the Indian film industry, from the early, post-independence phase of black and white films to the glorious, music-filled colourful cinema of the 1960s and '70s. It has been a training ground and school for many famous directors, producers, composers and technicians. It has also launched several actors who went on to become big stars in their own right. Some of the landmark films of Indian cinema have been produced by Navketan, from the noir classic Taxi Driver and the cultish Hare Rama Hare Krishna, to the all-time entertainer Jewel Thief and Guide, which features in every list of the ten best films ever made in India. The story of Navketan therefore is a parallel history of the Hindi film business and indeed a social history of India. By interviewing scores of people in front of and behind the camera, and after poring over archives and through old, faded cuttings, Sidharth Bhatia has put together a fascinating saga of the creative partnerships which spawned an organization that defined popular film-making for decades. Profusely illustrated with stunning photographs, stills from Navketan's films, publicity brochures and posters-some of them never seen before-Cinema Modern is a collector's edition for anyone interested in Indian cinema.

Download or read book CITIES ON A HILL written by Frances FitzGerald and published by Simon & Schuster. This book was released on 1986-10-15 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "We must consider that we shall be A City Upon a Hill, the eyes of all people upon us," John Winthrop told his Pilgrim community crossing the Atlantic to found the Massachusetts Bay Colony. Four centuries later, Americans are still building Cities Upon a Hill. In Cities on a Hill Pulitzer Prize-winner Frances FitzGerald explores this often eccentric, sometimes prophetic inclination in America. With characteristic wit and insight she examines four radically different communities -- a fundamentalist church, a guru-inspired commune, a Sunbelt retirement city, and a gay activist community -- all embodying this visionary drive to shake the past and build anew. Frances FitzGerald here gives eloquent voice and definition to a quintessentially American impulse. It is a resonant work of literary imagination and journalistic precision.
