angaar

angaar <EOT> angaar restaurant - an authentic indian in jvc dubai ; fujairah ; sharjah & shortly coming up in abu dhabi serving indian non veg cuisine .

phool aur angaar ( english : flowers and coals ) is a 1993 indian bollywood action film , starring mithun chakraborty , shantipriya and prem chopra .

providing a perfect base for exploring agra , this hotel offers a meeting room , dry cleaning / laundry services and tour / ticket assistance . grab a bite at angaar , which serves international cuisine .

true , ` ` one 2 ka 4 ' ' has the same astonishing technical excellence , same impressive special effects , and the same feel for song and dance that one saw in ` ` angaar ' ' . alas , it doesn ' t have the same deep concern for contemporary life which gave ` ` angaar ' ' its distinctive touch . there is an unmitigated bollywood - cum - hollywood version of criminology but no sociology , home - grown or imported . if the visual narrative oversteps its attempt to study the emotional and family life of an honest policeman fighting the druglord who owns , any way , the other half of the police force , it is only to tell us that we are paying peanuts to our man in khaki and the nation does not even care to look after the orphans left behind by those who lay down their lives for us .

angaar is movie worth a watch , if you haven ' t heard about it or not seen it i say you go and get it . the performances in the movie are mind blowing . kadar khan as never before does a one heck of a job as jahangir khan . nana patekar adds a another great villain performance to his movies . i am surprised he didn ' t get an award for this movie for a villain role . om puri does a nice job as the journalist . dimple kapdia does allright in the short rolegiven .

that brings us to director k . shashilal nair who gave us ` ` angaar ' ' which , you might recall , was based on the life of an underworld don who unlike his evil son had not renounced his human quality . some say it was based on the life of karim lala . it was , in a way , a first of its kind , in that the film gave us within the mainstream cinema framework a fairly authoritative account of the alleged nexus between the underworld and the politicians who manipulated the law and order machinery to suit their nefarious activities .

one 2 ka 4 ( plaza , chanakya and other delhi theatres ) : bollywood heroines are promptly written off the moment they tie the knot whereas the rule does not seem to apply to male stars . i asked a female psychiatrist if she had anything to say about it . sure , she said , indian women do not mind if their prince charming is married but indian men always want their dream girl to be virgin snow - white . well , there have been exceptions to the rule , like meena kumari . but by and large it is both true and tragic .

take juhi chawla , for instance , who is truly the saving grace of ` ` one 2 ka 4 ' ' here now . none of the top actresses today is gifted with such unfailing sense of humour and few can match her timing which she has refined from film to film . from the vulnerable virginal look in ` qayamat se qayamat tak ' to a tantalising woman in ` ` darr ' ' to the femme fatale now in ` ` one 2 ka 4 ' ' , the transition is complete . in hollywood , like julia roberts , her career would have at this point touched the peak . alas , bollywood wizards claim a decline in her following because of her marriage .

yet her effortless , fluent cameo of a haryanvi girl is really a connoisseur ' s delight . it looks like diwali crackers in the general gloom of the film created by a grim battle between cops and drug peddlers and a father tending to the needs of four motherless children before jumping to his next gunbattle .

` ` one 2 ka 4 ' ' offers no such in - depth study of the human situation . that probably is the reason why the violence involving the gun - toting pair , khan and shroff , does not rise above the mundane . at its best , the film remains a simple crime - and - punishment story . neither shah rukh nor jackie can manage to look authentic though there is no denying that they do manage to deliver some power - packed emotional moments to the visual narrative . you can trust jackie to do something like that .

of course , it was always a great cinematic asset for shah rukh khan to look like shah rukh khan . but perhaps he has been too long at it . and , really , he should have left taking - off - the - shirt business to salman khan who has more to show for his pains than any other hero in business , except hrithik . that leaves us with four lovable kids - - baby ghazala , baby sana , master shanno and master hunny - - who provide the emotional glow to the film .

producer nazir ahmad has mounted the film as ambitiously as he had mounted the amitabh bachchan - sri devi starrer ` ` khuda gawah ' ' . he has provided the right kind of locations for a . r . rahman ' s music which has his distinctive touch . at least one song has already hit the popularity charts .

` ` one 2 ka 4 ' ' is a long - awaited film , for shah rukh khan plays a police officer for the first time , mixing action with romance . let us hope his admirers will stay with him and producer nazir ahmad will have better luck than he had with his previous effort . the title itself seems to have been borrowed from a song picturised on anil kapoor in a subhash ghai film .

this is one movie that people have forgotten , and it was released in 1990 , starring jackie shroff one of the strongest performance ever .

it had nana patekar and kadar khan as never before in the movie . the dialogues in the movie are one of the best that i have listened . kadar khan himself wrote the dialogues and i think the movie got an award for the dialogues also .

the movie is directed by shashilal nair one of jackie shroff ' s friend .

the movie stars = jackie shroff , nana patekar , kadar khan , dimple kapadia , kiran kumar and om puri .

> > kadar khan ( jahangir khan ) has gotten the status of the uncrowned king of the underworld . extortions , killings , murders and gang warfare are the second nature to him . he runs paralel judiciary system . with a flick of a telephone or one raised finger jahangir khan is able to solve more problems then the judiciary system and the law order of india . now getting old jahangir khan has trained his sons farid and eldest son majid ( nana patekar ) to takeover his seat . kadar khan ' s favorite son is farid . jahangir khan hates majid ' s violent behavior .

> > nanapatekar ( majid khan ) is a mentally disturbed person . majid khan has grown up with lot of pyshic complexes . not able to complete with his father ' s power his cruelty develops further . his one man obssession is to to destroy all the slums and replace them tall towers . he will do anything to build buildings in this particular slum he has seen and wants to destroy it and build buildings on it .

> > mazharkhan ( farid khan ) is the youngest brother of two and the favorite of two also . farid khan has been trained to take over the whole crimeworld after jahangir khan retires from his seat .

> > kirankumar ( anwar khan ) the strong silent following jahangir khan everywhere he is the most trusted servant for jahangir khan . anwar khan will do anything that jahangir khan asks him to , because he was picked up from the streets by jahangir khan ever since then he ' s been loyal to his boss .

> > ompuri ( perveez ) he is honest and hardwroking journalist runs his own paper and press . even though threatned by some dangerous gooons he sticks to his guts and continues to print the atrocities that has been going in the city by the underworld mafia .

> > dimple kapdia ( mili ) she comes to the city and finds shelter at jackie shroff ' s house because she has no where to go . she gets a job at ompuri ' s press because he thinks she ' s a honest person . she falls in love with jackie shroff lateron .

> > jaggu ( jackie shroff ) is a common man strong , passionate , honest and violent . he has become an ideal to his collegious and his friends . he is the leader of the slum he is living in . any problems in the slum people come to him for solutions . jaggu is a educated man who can ' t find a job anywhere . he represents the generation which has come to rely on violence to solve all their problems . he belongs to the youth that believes in changing the system .

the man of the movie is jackie shroff , this is one of his finest performances ever . the way he shows his anger in the movie and beats up farid khan and kills him by just beating him with his hands . his dialogue delivery is great to watch in the end also . this was another one of successfull movies of jackie shroff .

the music is allright , my favorite is idhar dekho udhar dekho and kitni jaldi yeh mulaqat guzar jaati hai .

the price of happiness is a lost 1916 silent film drama directed by edmund lawrence and starring mary boland .

it was distributed through the world film company .

the film was based on a play called ( drei paar schuhe : three pairs of shoes ) .

the price of happiness

the price of happiness <EOT> the price of happiness . . . is £7 . 6million | daily mail online

' the price of happiness ' is a beautiful and haunting tragedy about one man ' s journey to find happiness .

we’d love your help . let us know what’s wrong with this preview of price of happiness by yvonne whittal .

the price of happiness . . . is £7 . 6million ( at least , that ' s how much brits say they ' d need to set them up for life )

video : on the fifth of december 1985 , a bottle of 1787 lafitte was sold for 105 , 000 pounds — nine times the previous world record . the buyer was kip forbes , son of one of the most flamboyant millionaires of the 20th century . the original owner of the bottle turned out to be one of the most enthusiastic wine buffs of the 18th century . château lafitte is one of the greatest wines in the world , the prince of any wine cellar .

the value of theatrefolk vignette plays is clear on the page and on the stage .

number of refugees accepted into the u . s . falls below the rest of the world combined for the first time . . .

the researchers found that life satisfaction rose steadily the more people were paid . happiness rose with income too , but plateaued when people reached an annual salary of $ 75 , 000 . for those on more , happiness appeared to depend on other factors .

the ministry of utmost happiness takes us on a journey of many years – the story spooling outwards from the cramped neighbourhoods of old delhi into the burgeoning new metropolis and beyond , to the valley of kashmir and the forests of central india , where war is peace and peace is war , and where , from time to time , ‘normalcy’ is declared .

‘worth the 20 - year wait . . . the unmissable literary read of the summer’ time

all of the above , plus : behind the scenes footage plus commentary from the producer on the filmmaking process .

a survey of 1 , 000 americans found that happiness rose in line with salary , but only until people earned $ 75 , 000 a year , the equivalent of around £50 , 000 .

and what exactly do we mean by happiness ? that we laugh a lot , feel optimistic and secure in our lives , are serenely calm or deliriously hedonistic ? in a recent 2008 - 09 gallup poll of national happiness , the united states came fifth , and yet at the same time came 89th out of 151 in terms of ' least worry ' , and had the fifth - highest stress levels . it is hard to make sense of that : does happiness compensate for stress , or are they ineluctably conjoined ?

besides , is happiness a desirable goal ? that might seem obvious ( it was to the authors of the us declaration of independence ) — and it surely seems a better measure of human wealth than conventional economic indices of well - being , such as gross domestic product . but what if a happy nation is a selfish or a profligate one ? and who ' s to say that the inhabitants of aldous huxley ' s brave new world would not , blissed out by the drug soma , have rated high on the happiness scale ?

mesmerising maps reveal record - breaking temperatures across the world as the earth experiences ' one of the . . .

an absolute must - read for our times , even though it has its flaws . but some of the flaws arise only out of the sheer ambitiousness of the book - to tell intimate stories ( of the transgender and the graphic designer ) against a turbulent backdrop ranging from real - life events in delhi to those in gujarat , kashmir and the forests of the tribal belt . if nothing else , the beauty of some of the passages alone should be reason enough to read it .

but for those 20 years , an unbelievable number of really eminent and accomplished figures in the wine world were sort of drawn into the orbit of these bottles . i think they wanted to believe that the most expensive bottle of wine in the world must be the best bottle of wine in the world , must be the rarest bottle of wine in the world . i became increasingly , kind of voyeuristically interested in the question of you know , why do people spend these crazy amounts of money , not only on wine but on lots of things , and are they living a better life than me ?

now , the photographer who took the pictures for this project for some reason posed his dog in a lot of them , so that ' s why you ' re going to see this recurring character . which , i guess , you know , communicates to you that i did not think that one was really worth the price .

the close - knit relationship of four friends is seriously threatened when one of them undergoes a sudden change of life and sets out to get the others to follow suit .

' a great tempest of a novel . . . [ it ] will leave you awed by the heat of its anger and the depth of its compassion ' washington post

once put it , " maybe money does buy happiness after all " , there is a stronger case to be made here that better education , secure health provision , lowering of stress , and the nurturing of social and familial relationships offer a far greater dividend of smiles .

, they use the us data from the gallup survey to argue that income does continue to impact on our evaluation of ' life satisfaction ' as we enter the realm of the rich .

arundhati roy is the author of the god of small things , which won the booker prize in 1997 and was a bestseller in more than thirty languages worldwide .

they say money can ' t buy you happiness , but according to a new study £7 . 6million will bring you exactly that .

and i just wanted to finish by mentioning a very interesting study which came out earlier this year from some researchers at stanford and caltech . and they gave subjects the same wine , labeled with different price tags . a lot of people , you know , said that they liked the more expensive wine more — it was the same wine , but they thought it was a different one that was more expensive . but what was unexpected was that these researchers did mri brain imaging while the people were drinking the wine , and not only did they say they enjoyed the more expensively labeled wine more — their brain actually registered as experiencing more pleasure from the same wine when it was labeled with a higher price tag .

‘the ministry of utmost happiness is big , both in physical heft and in ideas . it features an unforgettable cast of characters from across india whose stories are told with generosity and compassion . the novel’s greatest feat is showing the ways in which religious belief , gender identity , and even our safety in the world , are not fixed—they have as much fluidity as roy’s astute plotting’ vulture

the researchers warn that the emotional strain of negative experiences , such as getting divorced or being ill , appear to be exacerbated by being poor . " more money does not necessarily buy more happiness , but less money is associated with emotional pain , " they write .

rocket science it is not . nevertheless , the booming discipline of ' happiness studies ' continues to excite controversy . questions abound over cause and effect — for example , are people happier when they marry , or do happy people marry ?

bottleneck of 700 , 000 migrants wait in libya to cross the . . .

around 62 per cent of those polled thought it was possible for money to bring you happiness – with one in 10 claiming they would need at least £50million to put a permanent smile on their face .

insightful and wonderfully written ! shows a different way of looking at some of the recent events and its implications . highly recommended .

kahneman and deaton distinguished between life satisfaction and joy by asking people to assess how happy they were on the previous day , and found that there was no difference between daily happiness levels of individuals making more than $ 75 , 000 per year .

‘this novel , in which many verses speak in the guise of prose , is alive . . . ministry is a book - world - being which would show us the nightmares of our waking hours , the canopies of our future , gather us into movements , console us when the catastrophes come , haunt us from the horizon’ wire

the study echoes university of illinois professor ed diener ' s global research on the same topic , the results of which were reported in july . according to the washington post , diener found that while the relationship between money and satisfaction is strong and universal , the relationship between wealth and positive emotion is more complex .

kahneman teamed up with angus deaton , an economist at princeton , to analyse 450 , 000 responses to a daily survey on happiness and life satisfaction run by gallup in 2008 and 2009 .

" . . . a key element of what many people consider happiness - - positive feelings - - is much more strongly affected by factors other than cold , hard cash , such as feeling respected , being in control of your life and having friends and family to rely on in a pinch . "

for starters , the overall quality of the pages and book is quite nice . it ' s a pleasure even to just turn pages .

not having enough money causes emotional pain and unhappiness , the researchers found . but the happiness tipping point is about $ 75 , 000 - more money than that doesn ' t make a person cheerier , though it can help people view their lives as successful or better .

since then roy has published five books of influential non - fiction essays that include the algebra of infinite justice ( 2001 ) , listening to grasshoppers ( 2009 ) , and broken republic ( 2011 ) . she has raised profound questions about war and peace , the definitions of “violence” and “non - violence” , about what we think of as “development” , “democracy” , “nationalism” , “patriotism” and indeed the idea of civilization itself .

benjamin wallace : now , that ' s about all the videotape that remains of an event that set off the longest - running mystery in the modern wine world . and the mystery existed because of a gentleman named hardy rodenstock . in 1985 , he announced to his friends in the wine world that he had made this incredible discovery . some workmen in paris had broken through a brick wall , and happened upon this hidden cache of wines — apparently the property of thomas jefferson . 1787 , 1784 . he wouldn ' t reveal the exact number of bottles , he would not reveal exactly where the building was and he would not reveal exactly who owned the building . the mystery persisted for about 20 years .

because most of us are , by definition , not relatively wealthy in our society , we probably feel a glow of self - righteous satisfaction from studies suggesting that there is a ' wealth threshold ' above which happiness no longer increases 1 , 2 . that fits with intuition : the super - rich do not always strike us as a particularly joyful bunch .

for all their ambiguities , happiness studies are closely monitored by politicians and policy - makers , not least because policies that make people happy seem likely to win votes . the question is what they will make of these findings . is it better to promote good life evaluation or emotional well - being ?

does this validate the anonymous quip that those who say money can ' t buy happiness don ' t know where to shop ? not exactly . kahneman and deaton argue that previous discussions on happiness have been muddied by a failure to distinguish a sense of emotional well - being from our life evaluation . the first refers to daily experience : how much we laugh , for example , and how relaxed we feel as we go about our life . the second is a more objective overview : how content we are with our family , job , house , insurance or credit rating . it is not hard to imagine the head of a big corporation feeling good about all this while never cracking a grin .

kahneman and deaton refrain from taking a position — and the richness and subtlety of their data advise against glib answers . as they imply , any society should wish to improve the lot of people who have poor emotional health and are gloomy about their prospects . but their results , while complicating the previous picture , surely suggest that income ( and dare one add , taxation levels ) should not be regarded as a relevant happiness dial for those who are well off .

there was one object that i could not get my hands on , and that was the 1947 cheval blanc . the ' 47 cheval blanc is probably the most mythologized wine of the 20th century . and cheval blanc is kind of an unusual wine for bordeaux in having a significant percentage of the cabernet franc grape . and 1947 was a legendary vintage , especially in the right bank of bordeaux . and just together , that vintage and that chateau took on this aura that eventually kind of gave it this cultish following . but it ' s 60 years old . there ' s not much of it left . what there is of it left you don ' t know if it ' s real — it ' s considered to be the most faked wine in the world . not that many people are looking to pop open their one remaining bottle for a journalist .

one of the most contested issues for those trying to measure happiness is its relationship to income . most people would agree that abject poverty is miserable , but it is not clear how the relationship plays out above that unfortunate state . whereas being female or married are all - or - nothing factors , income is quantitative : if being wealthy makes you happy , does being more wealthy make you more happy ?

it was stark and real in portrayal of characters , their motives and mystery of existence . it was not anything that brought one in touch with finer feelings of ecstasy and joy , but absolutely absorbing to experience the the world of people far removed from us , in nature , in situations and facts which never appeared in one ' s day to day interaction with people . i won ' t say it was depressing but it was very sad to realise that there is a reality in life which we ' ve never seen and made me feel safe where i am placed today . it ' s very different from the first book " god of small things " nevertheless i would recommend reading and creating the awareness within of the kind of lives different people have and then to find meaning in existence , one ' s purpose in life and striving to live for an all consuming cause . . about life , it ' s precious meaning and the ever sustainable emotions called love in every form , between humans , gods and animals . .

being a new gen kashmiri and this being the first book not in my academics to have been read by me , i can tell you , nothing right away . it ' s a feeling of numbness . just having finished it and realizing that every line in this book somehow resonates with my daily life , one way or the other , the murder of 4 locals this very morning to the shiraz cinema still used as an army bunker , the truth i live everyday and the tales of 90s i hear from elders , this book has it all . it makes you live through it with each turn of a page . at one point it just seems - - too morbid to be true but then it is . it is the truth people here have lived and we still do . this book is right in the feels while being real to every detail , even if at one point you go " nah this can ' t be ! " but then it is . . . i ' m not much of a book reader to review a book like they ' re meant to be usually so i ' m just trying to review the emotions this book portrays and i can tell you that every emotion in this book is not just an emotion you feel of some imaginary character unlike most of the books out there , it was once or is now someone ' s reality as well . that ' s what when you realise it makes you sad , and eventually numb with each turn of page . . .

the gallup poll surveyed more than 700 , 000 us residents , although kahneman and deaton jettison about one - quarter of the responses because they appear to be unreliable . from the rest , they deduce that income is more closely correlated with life evaluation than with emotional well - being , and that this correlation persists for all income levels , at least up to an annual income of around us $ 160 , 000 . although reported well - being also generally increases with income , this relationship reaches a plateau at an income of around $ 75 , 000 a year .

our biggest challenge thus far has been acquiring shooting locations that are affordable and that also adhere to the descriptions of our script . we want to make this film appear as professional and authentic as possible , so we need to film in convincing locations . we do not want this short to come across as a project created in a friends apartment with our grandfather ' s video camera . we are also struggling because of immediate financial cost . we need the money from this campaign , however we will not receive it for a substantial amount of time . therefore , it is important to us to receive these funds so that we can make this film as soon as possible with the best resources we can acquire . in addition , we hope to save some of the money we raise so that we can enter the film to various festivals when it is completed .

i am a huge fan of yvonne whittal ' s work . very few authors write them as " angsty " as she does . her character development is very solid for a category romance and adds depth to her stories . her heroes are in a league of their own ; feisty , hard - core alpha , yet delicious enough that i can ' t help wishing i were 20 years younger . her heroines are typically strong , intelligent women , but sometimes a little more forgiving than they should be . however this time , it was so overboard that it soured the last 15 pages of an otherwise really good book . the hero just blew it because of his reckless , false pride .

yvonne whittal was born and raised in south africa , the setting of most of her romances . she started writing stories at a young age , but didn ' t really get serious about writing until after she married and had children . she got many rejection letters from publishers , until a friend who loved romances gave her to encouragement to continue .
