•  Movie Preview - Raat Gayi Baat Gayi 
Film about three married couples and provides a detailed insight into the modern day marriage. Rahul wakes up with a bad hangover after partying heavily the previous night, where he had come across a sexy young woman Sophia. They both got drunk and could feel sparks flying. But, sadly, Rahul couldn't remember what happened after that. Did they do 'that' which they might regret later...?
 
•  Movie Preview - Hum Sey Hai Jahaan 
Sameer Khanna (Mashhoor Amrohi), the central character in the movie, comes to Singapore and lands up the job of a recovery agent to Rosario (Jackie Shroff), who runs a chain of nightclubs. Sameer hatches a plan to abduct the daughter of a superstar Gyaneshwar Singh (Shezhad Khan) to get money in ransom.
 
•  Movie Review - Mr White Mr Black 
Suniel Shetty plays the henchman from Hoshiarpur who is after Arshad Warsi in Goa to bring him back to the village to take possession of a land bequeathed by his father. This he does in the pretext of safeguarding a spoilt heiress (Sandhya Mridul) from wickedness. It's not that the quality of the lead performers is bad: Shetty and Warsi are good; in fact, but for them, the movie wouldn't be half interesting.
 
•  Movie Review - Bhoothnath 
The right casting in any movie is usually considered to be half-the-battle won, but signing up mega-stars like Amitabh Bachan, a fairly cute kid (Aman Siddiqui) plus Shah Rukh Khan and Juhi Chawla and wasting their collective talent, crowd-pulling charisma and time is a huge crime. What really kills the film that is mainly targeted at the kids is the sudden turn in the second half towards heavy melodrama.
 
•  Profile - Amitabh Bachchan 
At 65, the Big B has more energy and enthusiasm than most men half his age. Advancing age has not stopped this powerhouse from having a thriving career which most aspiring actors would give an arm and leg for. In the meantime, his recently launched blog has his fans worshipping him online now. He enjoyed playing a friendly ghost in Bhoothnath which hit the silver screens on May 9.
 
•  Movie Happening - Dadasaheb Phalke Award for Rajesh Khanna 
April 30, 2008, was an unforgettable day in the life of former superstar Rajesh Khanna. It was the day he received the Dadasaheb Phalke Golden Actor Award. A visibly emotional Khanna declared the award as the 'ultimate crown' of his career spanning four decades. The actor, who has not been seen on the big screen for several years, has moved back to his bungalow 'Ashirwad' on Carter Road.
 
•  Movie Happening - Mallika courts trouble by her 'improper' attire 
Mallika Sherawat faces the wrath of Tamil Nadu's self-appointed 'moral brigade', the Hindu Makkal Katchi (HMK) who immediately filed a police complaint citing improper attire at a film function. Mallika follows close on the footsteps of actor Shriya Saran, who was also accused of dressing 'improperly' at a film function.
 
•  Music Review - Bhram 
Shaan kicks of the album with a youthful sounding number 'Jaane kaisa hai tu'. While the peppy quality is evident, it is also repetitive and you quickly move on to the next hoping for something different. 'I am a bad boy' has several singers - Suraj, Jagan, Earl D' Souza, Siddharth, Suhas, Sunaina and Khushboo. The number is definitely catchy and the rendition by these singers is note worthy.
 
•  Music Review - K for Kishore 
This is pure nostalgia and issued at this time, one suspects to cash in one of the TV shows of the same name. Of course there is nothing more pleasurable than hearing the king himself. Songs like 'Maana janaab ne pukara nahin' and 'Nakhrewali' make you smile while 'Mmain sitaron ka tarana' or 'Surma mera nirala' take you into the realm of pure fun entertainment.
 
•  Profile - Rekha Bhardwaj 
Rekha Bhardwaj arrived in Bollywood with the number Namak ishq ka in Omkara, composed by her husband Vishal Bhardwaj. She confesses that her husband has been her friend, philosopher, and guide.To those who believed that Rekha could perform only under the tutelage of Vishal, her answer was the title track in Aditya Chopra's Laaga Chunari Mein Daag.
 
•  Interview - Kalpana 
Kalpana is an upcoming singer whose three films got released on the eve of Holi. Her songs are already making waves among the listeners. Amongst these films is a film where she has done a playback for Rakhi Sawant and thus is facing some controversy. Her film 'Welcome' gave her a lot of appreciation and acceptance by the listeners.
 
•  Music Happening - Rahman launches Music Conservatory 
The world renowned music composer has always wanted to create a music conservatory which will be an amalgamation of music, culture and state-of-the-art technology. Rahman said that he wanted Hindustani and Carnatic musicians to be able to read western notations. This would help them understand both, Indian classical and western music while helping them adapt to music and musicians from all over the world.
