A veteran writer, who worked closely with Hogan during his career, has now reacted to the tragedy and paid tribute the WWE Hall of Famer's legacy Vince Russo says Hulk Hogan 'put wrestling on the map' Vince Russo is a recognisable name in the professional wrestling business.

In other words---he LITERALLY put wrestling on the map,' he said Pro-wrestling initially followed a territorial system where promoters refrained from putting up shows in markets outside their parent one. This changed when Vince McMahon took over the WWE (then called WWWF) from his father around 1980. He then built the company around Hogan, the face of the promotion. 'The Immortal One' emerged as a cultural icon because of his macho physique, 'pythons' and catchphrases. His 'whatcha gonna do…' catchphrase in particular garnered mainstream attention.

In fraught times, city dir's ‘Immigrants' gets int'l fim fest Rotterdam grant
1 2 3 Kolkata: In fraught times, Suman Mukhopadhyay 's 'Immigrants' — set against the backdrop of the 1947 Partition of India and topical in the context of today's identity politics — is the only recipient from India of the International Film Festival Rotterdam (IFFR)'s Hubert Bals Fund (HBF). The 15 projects, which will receive a grant of €10,000 to support their development, were selected from more than 900 applications. Author Debesh Roy penned a story named 'Udbastu'. Mukhopadhyay's project is inspired by that work and is about a displaced family from the 1947 Partition of India struggling to rebuild their lives in a fledgling immigrant colony on the outskirts of Kolkata. When a state inquiry questions their identities, conflicting narratives unravel their past, threatening their existence and tearing at the fabric of their family bonds. "This is a historically rooted drama set against the backdrop of the 1947 Partition of India. Its focus is on the fragility of identity in the face of institutional demands for 'proof' and the deep scars that forced migration leaves on personal histories," Mukhopadhyay said. According to the director, 'Immigrants' was born from a profound sense of disquiet about the lives of those whose stories were never officially recorded, whose names were lost due to bureaucratic lapses, and whose lives were rewritten in the margins of history. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Libas Purple Days Sale Libas Undo "The Partition of 1947, despite its monumental impact, often remains a sanitised topic in cinema — reduced to historical spectacle or political drama. 'Immigrants' resists this reduction," he added.

His film 'Putulnacher Itikatha' competed at this year's IFFR. "I have directed nine full-length feature films including 'Putulnacher Itikatha' (2023), 'Nazarband' (2020), 'Asamapta' (2017), and 'Herbert' (2005), which won the National Award for Best Regional Film that year. It is a misconception that cinema is not my forte. Anyone who looks at my body of work will understand that my films have been to many prestigious festivals around the world," he said. The filmmaker has also not ignored some attempts to deliberately downplay his achievements in cinema and pigeonhole him only as a theatre personality. "I hope the IFFR selection will make people notice how consistently I have been working in films as much as devoting time to theatre," Mukhopadhyay said.

Ex-Astronomer CEO Andy Byron to sue Coldplay after viral kiss cam controversy? Lawyers reveal
Former Astronomer CEO Andy Byron may sue Coldplay over a viral kiss cam incident involving him and HR chief Kristin Cabot, citing defamation and privacy invasion. Chris Martin's joking "affair" comment sparked backlash. Legal experts doubt the claim's success due to the public concert setting. Both have resigned. Former Astronomer CEO Andy Byron is considering legal action against Chris Martin 's band, Coldplay , for defamation, according to a report by Page Six. This follows a surprise kiss cam moment during a recent Coldplay concert that attracted widespread attention and exposed the personal lives of Byron and the company's HR executive to public scrutiny. Controversial Kiss Cam Moment and Chris Martin's Comment Videos circulating widely on social media show Byron sharing a close moment with Kristin Cabot, the company's HR chief. Following the incident, Byron stepped down from his role amid mounting criticism and a board-initiated internal investigation. Legal Expert's View on Potential Defamation Claim Byron might consider legal action against Coldplay following the widespread backlash he faced after the kiss cam episode with his former colleague. Speaking to Page Six, attorney Camron Dowlatshahi noted, "If we are getting creative, a possible claim would be for defamation, specifically as it relates to Chris Martin characterising the two as having an 'affair.'" During the concert, when the camera caught Byron and Cabot, Martin made a lighthearted comment, saying, "Either they're having an affair or they're just really shy." The attorney added that for Byron to succeed, he must prove that Martin's statement was defamatory and disprove the allegations of an "affair," which Byron contends never happened. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Live Comfortably: 60m2 prefabricated bungalow for the elderly in Cipagalo Pre Fabricated Homes | Search Ads Search Now Undo Byron must demonstrate that Chris Martin was aware of his innocence yet still "made the statement anyway with malice."

I also very much doubt that Mr Byron would want further public scrutiny by bringing a borderline frivolous suit against the event organizers and/or Coldplay."

Meanwhile, both Andy Byron and Kristin Cabot have stepped down from their positions at Astronomer, according to the New York Post.
