Movie review of The statesvsJolly LLB2

Subhash Kapoor’s “Jolly LLB” from 2013 was a middling film saved by the comic timing of leading man Arshad Warsi and Saurabh Shukla, who played the amiable but eccentric judge. In “Jolly LLB 2”, Kapoor makes some cosmetic changes to the script and replaces his leading man, but thankfully keeps Shukla.

Warsi makes way for Akshay Kumar and Delhi replaces Lucknow as the setting, but the rest of story is rather predictable. For a film that is about the law, Kapoor plays surprisingly little attention to details of the legal process. Perhaps, he deliberately chose to do away with them in favour of introducing unnecessary drama to the plot.

Kumar plays Jolly, a bumbling lawyer and a lowly assistant to one of the city’s top legal eagles. His lack of scruples and his ambition to rise to the top results in the suicide of Hina (Sayani Gupta), a young, pregnant woman who is seeking justice for the custodial death of her husband. Wracked by guilt, Jolly turns over a new leaf and dedicates himself to prosecuting the corrupt police officer responsible for the murder.

In his quest for justice, Jolly goes to extreme lengths – rescuing a key witness from prison in Jammu and Kashmir, making deals with a police officer and even risking being disbarred. So loud are the theatrics in the film, and so absent is any semblance of a coherent storyline that we actually have the opposition lawyer sitting on a dharna (strike) when he doesn’t agree with the judge, and people walking in and out of the witness box without so much as a notice.

Even if you discount the factual inconsistencies, Kapoor’s tale doesn’t have much meat as an emotional film or a compelling courtroom drama given the needless detours the screenplay takes. Kumar’s deadpan humour and Shukla’s wonderful turn as the droll judge whose bumbling demeanour hides a tough interior provide some bright sparks, but the rest of the film doesn’t live up to these standards.

Annu Kapoor hams it up as a lawyer who hands out rate cards and charges clients even for the tea they drink in his office. Huma Qureshi, who plays Jolly’s wife, is in the film only to clap when her husband delivers his sermons in court.

The verdict, in this case, isn’t in Jolly’s favour.

Shah Rukh Khan's view about benefit of being graduated..

Feel sorry for actors who are not graduates; both Aryan-Suhana need to complete their graduation first - Shah Rukh Khan

Alike their father Shah Rukh Khan, his kids Aryan and Suhana are keen to be a part of Bollywood too. But daddy SRK feels that his children won't be getting any encouragement from him until they complete their graduation.

In an interaction with a leading daily, Khan spoke at length about the rumours around his kids' debut and what's his take on the same.

Aryan, SRK's eldest son, is a social media favourite. A lot of noise is there on him stepping into films. On this, Khan said, "In my home and family, there's minimum qualification to be an actor. If you aren't a graduate, I believe you can't be an actor. I'm really sorry for all the actors who are not graduates. It's not because I look down upon people who are not. But I am a graduate and I believe education has helped me beyond my limit."

Shah Rukh also spoke about daughter Suhana."My daughter is in the 11th but she has to graduate. She loves acting - on stage, TV, films or street - and, she is quite a good actor, at least for her age. So, I would like to encourage her. But the encouragement will happen only post graduation," said King Khan.

He added, "My son has never shown interest in acting. But, of late he has started showing interest in filmmaking and got into ULCA and USC (USA), which came to me as a tremendous surprise but a pleasant one. He has completed his first year, so there are three more years to go."shikharpath.blogspot.comSRK's BFF Karan Johar is adamant on the fact that Aryan will be launched by him. "I don't think they are being launched right now. But Karan means it both jokingly and seriously. Aryan does visit my film sets sometimes, and I am very proud. He came the other day just to learn about lighting; not to see his father act or learn about lightning in the first year. He sat with the cameraman without even asking me. He was there for two hours, just learning the techniques. He told me, 'Papa, it was no nice.' So he didn't visit as a producer or as a he's hero son or someone who wanted to learn acting. I feel, 'Let him learn the craft and then see if he has the same love for acting as I do,'" quo tied Khan, before signing off ..

CBSE class 10 board to come back from 2017-18

CBSE is likely to reintroduce board exam in class 10 from session 2017-18. It means those who are studying in class 9 this year, will have to sit in board examination next year. The comeback of board exam was being expected from the very first day when Mr. Prakash Javadekar took charge as HRD minister. Few weeks back, CABE (Central Advisory Board on Education) meeting was held and most of the stake holders supported the move. However, it was not in agenda of CABE meeting but a general consensus was built around it.

Mr. Javadekar, has confirmed the comeback of board examination today in an informal conversation with reporters after a meeting with the Rajasthan Education Minister. “We will implement it from the 2017-2018 session. Not this year or in the next two months. The final decisions will be announced soon, it is under final consideration,” Mr Javadekar said.

CBSE made the board examination optional in the year 2010 and it was made almost mandatory to sit in school based home examination in KVs and govt. schools. Board exam was being conducted only for those who were willing to go out of CBSE system. However, in both of the cases, CBSE was awarding same certification to board and home exams.

The worst part of this system is that CBSE was conducting board exam for 30 marks only and rest of the 70 marks were being awarded by schools. Many state boards were not ready to accept marks awarded by schools while taking admission in class 11. Thus the whole process was too much confusing and was inviting interrogative remarks.

What would Donald Trump's victory mean for PM Modi and India???

QShortly after Donald Trump's stunning victory in one of the most decisive electoral battles in recent American history, Prime Minister Narendra Modi congratulated the Republican leader for his spectacular win.

Appreciating the "friendship" articulated by Trump towards India during his election campaigns, PM Modi said that the government looks forward to working with him closely "to take India-US bilateral ties to a new height".

And as far as India-US bilateral ties are concerned, here is an overview of what the President-elect thinks about India:

The good

When it comes to dealing with India's 'bad-neighbour- Pakistan, the Modi government would likely find one of its biggest allies in Trump. Trump, during his campaigning days, had talked about terrorism and Pakistan in particular on various occasions.

"When will Pakistan apologize to us for providing safe sanctuary to Osama Bin Laden for 6 years?! Some ally," he once tweeted.

In September, on an American radio show, Trump had called Pakistan "probably the most dangerous" country in the world today, adding that the only country that can "check" Pakistan is India.

Pakistan is "a serious problem" because they have nuclear weapons that work and "a lot of them", just like North Korea and its "mad man", Trump explained.

This sentiment is consistent with Prime Minister Modi's firm stand on Pakistan's support to state-sponsored terrorism. Since the Uri attack, the Prime Minister has taken up every opportunity on international platforms to name-and-shame Islamabad, for being a "safe haven to terrorists".

In wake of recent terror attacks and India's hard stance against Pakistan, Trump's views on the country might be welcome by the Modi government.

Trump's opinion on India has largely been positive. He recently attended an event organised by a Hindu group in the US, and proclaimed his love for India, saying, "I love Hindus". How that might go with the non-Hindu Indians is hard to say.

The bad

"I know the outer world exists... But at what point do you say, 'Hey, we have to take care of ourselves," The Washington Post had quoted Trump as saying.

This implies serious ramifications on free trade, immigration, outsourcing etc.

Just a few days ago, Trump claimed that the Americans are living through the "greatest jobs theft" in the history of the world, saying US companies were moving out jobs to countries like India, China, Mexico and Singapore.

Given that Trump has several times placed India in the same category as China, an economic competitor, India-US economic ties could be an area to watch out for, for increased stress points.

Trump had also proposed that American companies that use visas like the H1B be required to hire American workers before hiring foreigners.

Therefore, his accession to the White House would certainly be frowned upon by many.

With a promise to reduce the US corporate tax from 35 to 15 per cent, we can also expect American corporates head back to the US, upsetting Modi's flagship 'Make in India' .

His conservative approach is also obvious in his electoral slogans, 'Make America Great Again' and 'America First'.

How does Pakistan is reacting....????

I feel like laughing on Pakistani media. The most opposite news from world news across the globe, you will see in Pakistani news channel.

There all news from Pakistan are mainly based on only two point.

1. India as always blame Pakistan Baseless.
2. It was reaction on the atrocities going on PoK, and Baluchistan.

Following Data are taken form Pakistani media:

For the first Point:

Indian allegations over Uri sector attack are baseless: Nawaz Sharif.The Prime Minister termed the situation in Kashmir as extremely dangerous and told that kashmiris were extremely angry and would avenge the killings.“India will also have to answer for the baseless killings,” said Nawaz Sharif.

Federal Interior Minister Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan on Friday said that Pakistan cannot initiate any investigation of the Uri attack because India itself does not have any evidence for it.

“When Indians themselves have no proof, then what kind of action can Pakistan take? They have only leveled an accusaation, and that too only to defame Pakistan. And there can be no bigger proof than this [of their intentions],” said the interior minister.

For the Second Point:

The militant attack on an Indian army base in Uri may be a reaction to India's atrocities in Occupied Kashmir, Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif told reporters in London on Friday during a stopover in the UK on his return from New York.

"Pakistan was accused within 12 hours of the Uri attack. India placed blame on Pakistan immediately after the attack without any inquiry. No sensible person will accept this," he said.

All such blunders were seen in Pakistani news media. Moreover it was only here Prime minister Nawaz Sharif who was backing Pakistan most of Pakistan was silent on this matter as all of them knew that, IT WAS PAKISTAN ALL BEHIND ATTACKS ON URI ARMY BASE.

A wonderful poem dedicated to no tobacco day....by Shikhar Pathak of guru kripa divine grace public school (GKDGPS)

धूम्रपान का अंजाम 

आओ बच्चों तुम्हे  सुनाए  अच्छी एक कहानी ,

करके बुरी नक़ल  एक बालक  ने  की  थी नादानी। 

उसका बाप वकील एक था सिगरेट  का था आदि ,

काली बड़ी-बड़ी मुछे  थी वस्त्र  पहनता था खादी।।

लड़के ने बस स्वांग बनाया नकली मूंछ लगायी,

कोट-पैंट खादी  के  पहने झट सिगरेट जलाई। 

उसी  ढंग से नक़ल किया और कश -कश धुंआ उड़ाया ,

सिगरेट जली फक से चारो ओर उजाला छाया।।

लड़के को अभिमान हुआ यूँ सिगरेट जल जाने में ,

जली पैंट जल  उठा कोट असमर्थ मुक्ति पाने में।

कम्बल में लपेट के उसको एक व्यक्ति ने पटका ,

कुछ झुलसा कुछ जला लग गया मर जाने का खटका।।

बुरी नक़ल  से  सदा बचो यह हरदम ही दुखदाई हे ,

नक़ल करो अच्छे की वह तो हरदम ही सुखदाई हे।

शिखर पाठक। 

नयी  पोस्ट  के लिए बने रहिये 

धन्यवाद।
