Hyderabad, Nov 27 (Ians) An inspired second-half performance by Bharat powered the Bengaluru Bulls to yet another comeback victory in the Pro Kabaddi League (Pkl) Season 9 as they defeated Dabang Delhi K.C. 52-49 at the Gachibowli Indoor Stadium on Sunday.
Bharat’s superb haul of 23 points, the most by a raider in a single game this season, were supported by Vikash Kandola’s 10 as the Bulls took a valuable win.
Delhi’s Naveen registered a mere two points in the first half, but around him, everyone thrived. Ashu Malik and Vijay Malik ran riot through a porous Bulls defence racking up touchpoints with ease.
At the other end, Amit Hooda and Vishal were exemplary in containing Bharat and Vikash Kandola — the defence chiefly responsible for the huge gap in points.
The team from the capital city registered its first All-Out of the evening within eight minutes to go into a 13-7 lead.

It's an unsolved mystery in Hollywood why so many based-on-true-life polemical films end up so unremarkable. Often, the obligatory stats at the end credits about corporate negligence and paltry damage sums are more galling than anything in the actual movie. Bhopal: A Prayer for Rain, tracking the days leading up to the disastrous 1984 gas leak at a Union Carbide pesticide plant in central India, is, sadly, no exception. Writer/director Ravi Kumar manages a few nerve-racking sequences: repeated shots of deadly fluids splashing through pipes and turbines; fly-on-the-wall viewpoints of searing workplace injuries; and a devastating finale in which escaping toxic gas engulfs a shantytown wedding.

Movie Review: "Srimannarayana"; Actors: Balakrishna, Isha Chawla and Parvati Melton; Director: Ravi Kumar Chavali; Rating: ** - is all style, no substance.
Balakrishna is back with what he's best at doing - playing a never-aging hero, with two heroines by his side, and lots of bad guys to kick. Unfortunately, "Srimannarayana" has turned out to be a disastrous follow up to the super successful mythological film "Sri Ramarajyam", in which the protagonist was.

After Department where the Big B and Dutt don't have any scenes together, the two are expected to come together for an out-and-out action outing for director K. S. Ravi Kumar's film. Ravi Kumar has so far never done a Hindi film. The film has heavy duty action scenes for the Big B as well. When contacted, producer T. P. Aggarwal confirmed, "Yes, Sanjay Dutt is doing an action film directed by K. S. Ravi Kumar. We're also in talks with Mr. Bachchan for the film. It's Ravi Kumar's first film in Hindi. But it's an original subject. It's not a remake of one of his Tamil hits." What clinched the casting combination of the Dutt and the Big B was the director's formidable reputation.
