Johor (Malaysia), Oct 25 (Ians) The Indian junior men’s hockey team returned to winning ways with a strong performance against Japan, winning 5-1 in their third game at the 10th Sultan of Johor Cup.
For India, it was captain Uttam Singh (3′), Rohit (12′), Johnson Purty (21′), Boby Singh Dhami (31′) and Amandeep Lakra (51′) who found the back of the net, while Ikumi Saeki (15′) scored the lone goal for Japan.
Having lost 4-5 to South Africa in their previous match, the Indian juniors maintained their chances of advancing to the next round by winning against Japan.
After a delayed start, India got out of the blocks very quickly, as captain Uttam Singh (3′) arrowed it home past the Japanese goalkeeper after a spell of domination. And even though Japan threatened with a couple of penalty corners right after, India’s defence weren’t allowing them any space.

Dil To Pagal Hai revolves around a simple belief, that someone, somewhere is made for you. A beautiful tale of soul-mates, the story revolves around three different characters and their beliefs about love. There’s Rahul (Shah Rukh Khan), who does not believe in love and the idea of soul-mates and doesn’t really understand how two people can fall in love, let alone be together forever.

Now this was totally unexpected but it is happening. Ram Leela, the promo of which has just been unveiled, was all set to enjoy a solo release in the coming festive season. However, the film would now have company, what with Kangna Ranaut's Rajjo all set to clash with the Sanjay Leela Bhansali's musical drama.
"Makers of Rajjo, M.H. Shah and U.A. Karande, were waiting for an apt time to bring the film. Though Kangna plays a prostitute in the film, it isn't a grim affair by any means. Instead, it is a colourful affair as well and joins Ram Leela in painting the screen red. Pun intended," informs the source who called to share the developments.
Apparently, quite some thought was given before 15th November was decided as the release date for Rajjo, which would incidentally arrive just 12 days after Kangna would be seen kicking...

Sholay is set to be released 37 years after its original release on August 15, 1975 to the day. Yes, on August 15th, 2012 Independence Day, the magic of Sholay will once again no doubt fill cinema halls with its all star cast of Dharmendra, Amitabh Bachchan, Sanjeev Kumar, Hema Malini, Jaya Bhaduri (Bachchan) and Amjad Khan.
Sholay, which when first released ran for 286 weeks straight and was ranked by IndiaTimes as one of the ‘Top 25 must see Bollywood films’ as well as being awarded ‘The Best Film of 50 Years’ in 2005 by Filmfare; and making BFI’S ‘Top Indian Films.’
Nobody can deny that Sholay was a hit and that the film has gone on to become a phenomenal success. However, rumours circulating seem to suggest that Mukhta Arts who previously had been working on turning Sholay 3D have removed themselves from the project due to the Sippy family (Owners of the Film) being involved in legal hassles.
