Momsome Duo

Music as an art form is known for its universality. If fuelled by passion, its power transcends barriers like race, gender, space and time. Mother and daughter duo, Paromita Ghosh and Roshni Ghosh, exemplify this musical bond, which has taken them to a national stage. Recently, the pair – going by Mom & Me Live – participated in the popular reality show Wah Ustad streaming on DD National, representing Bengaluru and wowing the audience through their melodies.
On their performance in the show, the duo notes how their presence as a pair, having auditioned individually, was a delightful surprise. 'The showrunners learnt about us being mother and daughter; they wanted to add a surprise element by calling Roshni on stage. The judges were quite surprised; they asked us about our daily routine and to show a glimpse of our performance. That's how we prepared and presented in front of them,' shares Paromita.
Though music was always a significant part of their lives, their journey as a duo began during the pandemic, when they started practising together at home to pass time. 'We had no proper background. We just sat and tried to shoot some small videos for content. But once the pandemic was over, we thought of giving it a shot and creating a band,' recounts Paromita. Interestingly, the two-member band is polyglotic. 'We sing in Kannada, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, Gujarati, Marathi, Punjabi, and Bengali – despite not being well-versed with the languages when it comes to speaking. But it was a great way to connect with a diverse audience,' says Roshni.
What sets them apart is not just their shared passion but their relationship that supports their artistic pursuit. 'We know our strengths and weaknesses which makes work much easier and creates a better ambience and projection on stage,' says Roshni. Paromita adds, 'When we sing individually, we sing for ourselves; when together, we support each other.'
Recounting their journey so far, the duo credits it to their family, particularly Roshni's father, Raja, who plays percussion. As Paromita aptly says, 'Roshni's dad is both of our backbone. He is the manager, the director, the costume designer, also the major critic on our musical journeys,' she concludes.

Arjun Rampal on 'Rana Naidu' character: Most ruthless character I've ever played

Actor , who will be seen in the second season of the hit streaming show 'Rana Naidu', has said that his character in the show is the most ruthless part he has ever played. Arjun's character of Rauf is the newest, and most dangerous, entrant in the series which stars in the lead. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Talking about his character in the show, Arjun in a statement said, "He's the most ruthless and terrifyingly real character I've ever played." Rauf is a man without empathy, driven by chaos and capable of brutal violence. And yet, nestled within all that destruction, lies something deeply human. "There's a sliver of vulnerability -- especially in how he loves his niece. She's the only person he protects without question," Rampal shares. Insider Scoop: Cast of 'Crakk: Jeetegaa Toh Jiyegaa' unveils behind-the-scenes magic in candid interview "What made playing Rauf so challenging was how he could show tenderness, even while being completely consumed by darkness," the actor added. The series has been created by and directed by Anshuman, , and Abhay Chopra. It is produced by Locomotive Global Media. Earlier, the creator of the show, Karan Anshuman had shared an interesting anecdote from the shooting of the series when Rana Daggubati improvised his lines but it soon went into some other tangent. Rana Daggubati essays the titular character in the series, and was in a heated stand-off against his uncle Venkatesh Daggubati, who essays his estranged father in the series. During the verbal stand-off, the two broke into Telugu language. Now, Karan has a little knowledge of the language, so he, in his director's seat, was under the impression that "magic is about to happen" since both the actors were saying lines in their native language, which essentially means better grip on the dialogue exchange. However, the director was shocked to his bones when he heard the word "biryani". The show is set to stream on Netflix on June 13.

CBFC agrees to review Vetrimaran film

Chennai: Central Board for Film Certification (CBFC) has informed Madras high court that it will review Tamil movie 'Manushi', produced by director Vetrimaran, and specify the objectionable portions to the producer for edits. Appropriate certification will be provided once the process is completed, the board told the court. The submissions were made on a plea moved by Vetrimaran, alleging that the CBFC denied certification to the movie without a review. On June 4, Justice N Anand Venkatesh questioned how CBFC could deny a censor certificate without specifying the objectionable scenes. The court then directed the CBFC to specify objectionable scenes by June 16 or to watch the movie with the producer and point out the objectionable portions to him. The film, starring Andrea, is directed by Gopi Nainar. Vetrimaran moved the court, alleging that the censor board was refusing to certify his film and that he was not allowed to voice his opinion before CBFC made its decision. The CBFC denied certification to the movie on the grounds that it went against the integrity of the state, contained scenes that were contemptuous, defamed govt policies and portrayed stereotypes leading to a north/south divide
