Actress Nisha Yadav aka Ameesha Yadav who shot to fame with her film on corruption inspired by Anna Hazare’s struggle against corruption, celebrated her birthday on Thursday in Mumbai with street kids. She went to a home for orphans and street kids in the morning and sponsored a party for the little brats who were surprised at the gifts that Nisha brought them. “Normally on my birthday, my friends would give me gifts. This year, I decided to give some under privileged kids some gifts on my birthday. I am happy that the kids enjoyed the party, including the special lunch that we arranged for them,” says Nisha who turned 22 on Thursday.

Nisha who is currently shooting for a Tamil film has also been signed on for two more Bollywood movies. She recently completed shooting for a Punjabi music video and is also part of a reality show which goes on air next week. “I am shooting almost five days a week,” she says adding that she is thankful for the support that she has got from the south film industry, particularly Tamil directors and producers.

Well the culprits in this case have long fled the scene of crime and the cops for once can do nothing about it. The culprits in this case were a couple of pesky cockroaches and a mouse who kept on running between Dj Jenny D’s legs and feet while she was travelling in the first class compartment of a local train on the Western Railway in Mumbai. Dj Jenny D has mentioned this on the news blog she is the guest editor of:  Mumbaiwire.

According to Dj Jenny D, “I had gone to visit a very senior DJ who is also an instructor and had just recovered from a very serious ailment – at Colaba the southern-most tip of Mumbai on Tuesday evening. As it was the peak traffic hour, taking a taxi to the other side of town would mean getting stuck in the mad evening traffic for almost two hours. So we decided to travel by train and took a train from Churchgate. This is on the Western Railway. We had bought first class tickets and we boarded the train hoping for a peaceful journey. After the train crossed Dadar station, suddenly almost out of nowhere about 3 cockroaches and a small mouse popped up and kept on running beneath the seats. They were running between the feet of the commuters, some of whom were almost dozing off to sleep after a hard day’s work. We tried to shoo them away with a newspaper but without much success. The mouse and the cockroaches just kept coming back and running between our feet with sheer impunity.”

Dj Jenny D has decided to write an official complaint to the General Manager of the Western Railway. “I know nothing will come out of it and the mice, cockroaches and other pests will continue to hold sway over the local trains in Mumbai like the pickpockets, urchins and beggars who torment commuters, but yet I am doing my bit by making this issue public,” she says.

The film exposes the negative side of the upper communities who will even kill their own family members to save the so-called family honour.  Bhogal is known for his other controversial projects that deal with women’s issues like rape, marital rape, violence, sexual exploitation etc and this film is no different. It very boldly covers the subject in detail across two continents and cultures. Bhogal has spent a fortune on making the film and the 4 main songs are well picturised and shot in UK, India and Pakistan, he says.

The film is bound to raise eyebrows when it releases but Bhogal is non perturbad. “When I decided to make this film, I knew there would be some opposition to the subject. It is based on true stories and I am presenting the facts as they are,” he explains.

The super book though is not in a pristine condition. “Unfortunately, its cover is torn and the pages have faced the wear and tear of time. The pages have become brittle which is not surprising given the fact that the book was printed in 1841 and has seen the changes in the weather, atmospheric changes and pollution which has taken a great toll on this antique piece of literature which can almost be considered as a relic,” said Dj Jenny D, explaining that the book has original lithographic prints and designs which were used during that period. The owner of the book is trying to officially authenticate the actual age of the book by using a Carbon dating technique, but though has he has knocked on the doors of many laboratories they have all turned down his request. The Forensic and Chemical Laboratory at Kalina in suburban Mumbai which does such tests refused to test the book on the grounds that they only work on Government assignments (like murder cases or drug testing and identification in Narcotics cases) and cannot take on assignments from civilians, said Dj Jenny D.

The Bhabha Atomic Research Centre or BARC which is also equipped to test such samples also refused to entertain the book collector on some what similar grounds. His last recourse seems to be the Indian Institute of Science in Bangalore and he is hopeful that the IIS will help him.

If sources are to be be believed, Mumbai-based, 50-plus architect and graphics designer Shasshikant Bhomavat is penning down his memoaires. While this may not interest most people at first, the important issue that will probably make the whole of India take notice is the fact that Shasshi Bhomavat was the walking partner of none other than India’s biggest and richest entrepreneur and industrialist the late Dhirubhai Ambani.

While no further information was available and Shasshi Bhomavat remained unreachable, it seems that Dhirubhai Ambani and Shasshi Bhomavat used to take a morning walk almost every day from Haji Ali to Worli. According to our sources, Shasshi writes in his book which is co-authored by an ex- senior business journalist with the Economic Times, “From 1982-1984 DA and I used to have a morning walk at Worli sea face, but the reality was that he used to walk  and I used to jog. Imagine his speed of walking while I was jogging he was ahead of me. And he used to cover the entire stretch of Worli seaface about 3 times,” Shasshi writes in his book. Shasshi used to run an advertising company with his office at Nariman Point in South Mumbai and Dhirubhai Ambani owned Mudra – now one of the biggest ad agencies and media setups in India. Apparently, Dhirubhai who was quite friendly with Shasshi, used to ask himi for info on the ad-industry in Mumbai and even offered him an opportunity to head Mudra at that time.

During this brisk daily walk, Dhirubhai did share a lot of family secrets including the lives and careers of his two sons. At times, he even vented out his frustration telling personal family secrets to Shasshikant Bhomavat. More details are not available at this stage but the book is supposed to be about 250-odd very informative pages and pregnant with top-secret family information including the Ambani brothers “friendships” with Bollywood personalities and actresses. We were not able to validate all the information but we tried to get in touch with Dj Jenny D who is working on an audio-visual project with Shasshi Bhomavat. When we asked her about this book, the otherwise outspoken and brash Dj Jenny D quipped, “I know that Shasshi is working on such a book but I have no more details as I am on a totally different project.” She refused to answer any further questions on the subject.

Another walking partner whom we managed to contact said that Dhirubhai was quite candid about his sons transgressions if we may call them so and shared a lot of intimate family issues with his 2-3 good friends. It seems that the entire Bollywood were friends with the young Ambani brothers  and they were the darlings of the ladies. We will have to wait and watch till the book comes out to bring you more details. And given the fact that the Ambanis’ are fiercely guarded about their personal lives it remains to be seen if the book is even allowed to be distributed in India. We just hope it doesn’t meet the fate that The Polyester Prince by Hamish MacDonald did?

We live in India this great democracy where the judicial system still works. We pride in our pillars of democracy. We pride in our free press. We pride in the fact that even a poor man “can” get justice in India. No man is guilty unless proven guilty. Even if ten guilty people get away free, not a single innocent man should be punished are the ideals on which our legal system functions. 

We must give Lalit Modi a chance to defend himself. He must get a chance to prepare his defense and answer all the allegations made against him. Unlike Shashi Tharoor, Lalit Modi is not a public servant or government servant. He was running a purely commercial establishment outfit geared to make maximum profits at all costs. 

Lalit Modi’s only guilt as of now is his indiscretion in giving out details on Twitter.  As IPL Commissioner, Lalit Modi should not have selectively given out the share holding pattern of one franchise on Twitter. He should have exercised discretion and prudence in this matter. He should not have let emotions get the better of him and his mental faculties. As far as all the wild allegations of match fixing, fraud, forgery, betting, money laundering, embezzlement, etc are concerned they are all just allegations. They need to be proven in a court of law by means of a fair trial. Lalit Modi must have an opportunity to speak up. 

In that sense, Lalit Modi’s plea for a few days to prepare his defense is fully justified. The BCCI should show that it is a purely professional body and does not go by mere wild allegations appearing in the media. Even Saddam Hussain got an opportunity to face trial. The BCCI should first show cause Lalit Modi or conduct an open enquiry into all the allegations, but asking him to step down or quit without any opportunity to be heard is surely unfair. 

In our judicial system, even murderers and rapists get several months to prepare their defense and then face trial. They get various opportunities to defend themselves through Revision Applications and Appeals. Why shouldn’t Lalit Modi be given a chance to speak up? Weren’t the BCCI bigwigs aware of what was going on. 

In that sense BCCI President Shashant Manohar must accept responsibility and also step down owing moral responsibility for all the mess. To say that Shashank Manohar and others were not really aware of what is going on within the IPL is sheer stupidity. They were all probably in the know of what was going on. They just turned a blind eye. 

If even if one per cent of the allegations against Lalit Modi are true, Lalit Modi could not have run the show with the active support of several BCCI and several others. To make Lalit Modi the fall guy would be hara kiri for the BCCI, because many of them would be signing their death warrants. A bitter and revengeful Lalit Modi is sure to hit out with the vengeance of a tornado. In that sense Shashank Manohar seems to be immature and wearing kid gloves. If he wants to save the good name of the BCCI and whatever equity is left of the IPL, he must follow the process of law. He must give Lalit Modi the time he wants – a few days will not harm anyone. The BCCI is considered as “state” in law and there is a standard procedure set out for such situations. The procedure must be followed. Asking Lalit Modi to arbitrarily quit may lay off the media pressure for a few days. But in the long run it will only harm the BCCI, IPL and cricket in India at large, because more harm will befall the BCCI.

Lalit Modi must get a fair trial. Lalit Modi must get justice. And justice must be seen to be done. We cannot get carried away by media hype. The BCCI must not let emotions rule it, but it should be governed by the rule of law. This entire scam was a result of non confirmation to SOP or standard operating procedure. The BCCI should in its rules have banned the use of public forums like Twitter for employees and officials to vent their spleen. The BCCI should have show caused Lalit Modi when he first tweeted and sent him an official memo or notice asking him to show cause why he should not be sacked for flouting the rule book.

Now freelance journalist and author Flynn Remedios is burning the midnight oil trying to get out Lalit Modi’s biography before the controversy dies down. Says Flynn Remedios, “For the last two weeks the media has gone to town and most news channels have dedicated almost or more than 60 per cent of their news telecast time to the IPL controversy or IPL gate. A lot of incorrect information or data is coming out in the media. The real controversy lies buried six feet under. There is much much more to IPLgate than meets the eye. Many more big names are involved. There is the match fixing and betting rackets and some prominent names will definitely come out. My books will reveal much more than what is being seen right now. Skeletons will tumble out of the closets, dressing rooms and drawers like bees coming out of a beehive.” 

Besides Lalit Modi’s biography, it is also learnt that Flynn Remedios is working on a film script on the IPL saga for a well-known film director and producer and another book titled IPL gate.

Asked how long it will take before the books can hit the book shelves of stores, Flynn quips, “Maybe a month, maybe two months. It depends on how fast my publishers can print it.”

Almost a forthnight later into the controversy as allegations of match fixing, match and performance outcome fixing, money laundering, fraud, cheating, bribery and what not continue to fly fast and free, Twitter continues to be the official media for the parties concerned.

 On Saturday Shashi Tharoor broke his silence in the virtual world when the tweeted that he would feel his resignation was worth it if the truth came out. This was followed by tweets by other personalities like Shah Rukh Khan, Shilpa Shetty and others.

Here’s a list of all the Tweets courtesy Times of India: 

IPL commissioner Lalit Modi, who is under intense pressure to resign from his post after I-T officials began probing IPL finances, on Saturday put out his message on Twitter saying he won’t resign.

Modi said, “People pressurising me to resign – I can tell you will not happen. Let them remove me then.”

“I am not the type to quit. Have faith. Did not create this to just walk away because xyz says what they feel like,” Modi declared.

“What we have done has been there for all of you to see for the past four years. No one can take that away,” he added on Twitter.

“Media is putting stories without verification goes to show how media can misuse there power. Don’t get influenced by all these baseless stories,” he wrote.

“Truth will prevail soon. Trial by media and no chance to present the facts is like the wild west. Wait and the facts will be delivered,” he said.

Tweeting about the IPL controversy, Bollywood icon Shah Rukh Khan, co-owner of Kolkata Knight Riders wrote, “IPL controversy: fast, furious & too much noise. Like the T20 itself. Hope it gets resolved as fast too for our friend Lalit & franchises.”

“Had a great time. Could not stay back as had a shoot in the morning. All of us smiled through a tinge of sadness,” Shah Rukh added.

Royal Challengers Bangalore’s Vijay Mallya tweeted that despite media bashing it was heart warming to witness applause by owners/ players for Lalit Modi at the awards for the fine job he has done.

“It was so nice to see Lalit smile despite all hell breaking loose in the media. You have to give it to him for making IPL what it is “, actress Preity Zinta, co-promoter of Kings XI Punjab, posted in her tweets.

Bollywood actress Shilpa Shetty of Rajasthan Royals said she supported full and fair investigations.

“Full and fair investigation of IPL will compel loud mouths to shut up by realizing the true value of sixth largest sporting event in world”, Shilpa said in her tweets.
