Halfway through Sandhya Suri’s engrossing police procedural Santosh, an older police officer (Sunita Rajwar) reminds a younger constable (Shahana Goswami) that when it comes to criminal cases, everyone — from the victim’s family to the detectives — is playing a role. One party lodges an accusation and the other delivers justice. Whether things are based in truth or reality counts less than one might think. The sentiment, hardly comforting to begin with, adopts a more sinister dimension later in the film, when the two women race against time to find the person who murdered a teenage girl in the Dalit community of a small town in northern India.
A few days after her parents reported her missing, Devika’s body was found in the well. The discovery of the girl (Nandani Tharu), whose swollen body contaminates the community water supply, sets off a storm of bad press for the local authorities.

Movies don’t always need to have a message. Themes are inherent to storytelling, but there are plenty of movies that can simply coast on vibes and star power, or which undermine their own messaging when it gets heavy-handed and preachy. The films that often get audiences really thinking are the ones that cushion that messaging in a mesmerizing story, which don’t tell you what to think but what to think about. Writer and director Sandhya Suri’s debut feature, “Santosh,” premiering at Cannes, is one such film.
“Santosh” is named after its lead character, Santosh Saini — a young widow unaccustomed to working but is now forced to by necessity, who inherits her husband’s profession due to a bizarre legal loophole (a real clause known as “appointment on compassionate ground”). Overnight, Santosh finds herself thrust into the local police force, where a murder investigation becomes a crash course...

Mumbai, March 29 (Ians) Hindi cinema has not written very many lead female characters who have careers, although to be fair to scriptwriters, many of the roles for women have been full of substance. And depth.
It is thoroughly interesting therefore to walk into a movie that is about the story of not one but three diligent friends who are working as cabin crew for the fictional Kohinoor Airlines.
Director Rajesh Krishnan helms a 122-minute joy ride in his heist comedy film Crew starring Tabu, Kareena Kapoor Khan and Kriti Sanon playing the leads.
Until their peaceful lives take a dramatic turn, all seems to be fine with the three rather glamorous women — Geetu (Tabu), Jasmine Kohli (Kapoor Khan) and Divya Rana (Sanon), who are a part of an airline crew aged between the 20s and the 40s — when they are unexpectedly caught in a difficult situation orchestrated by someone with ulterior motives.

A San Francisco Bay Area man who was named by Dish Network as the mastermind of a pirate streaming television operation says the satellite company has named the wrong person.
In a series of emails with The Desk on Tuesday, Danville resident Vaneet Sharma denied any involvement in the service, called Sharma Iptv, and said the lawsuit filed by Dish was the latest in a string of harassment involving the satellite company and a number of unknown co-conspirators.
Last week, Dish filed a civil complaint in federal court accusing Sharma of circumventing certain security protocols to access hundreds of channels available through its Sling TV streaming service. He allegedly resold access to those live channels through Sharma Iptv, an online service that cost $15 per month or $150 per year.

A Dish Network satellite dish.
Dish Network is suing a California man in federal court for allegedly pirating signals from it satellite and streaming television products, then re-selling them through a questionable Internet service.
Last week, attorneys representing Dish filed a civil complaint against Vaneet Sharma and his Astro Vast Solutions LLC, both based in the San Francisco suburb of Danville, after the company concluded that Sharma illegally redistributed channels that were obtained from Dish and its streaming service, Sling TV.
The channels were repackaged in a service called Sharma Iptv, which was promoted through fliers that Sharma allegedly distributed to Indian temples, restaurants and shops throughout the San Francisco Bay Area. The pamphlets said Sharma Iptv served up channels that offered pay-per-view programming and live sports from the National Football League (NFL), Major League Baseball (MLB), and the National Basketball Association (NBA) for as little as $15 per month.

Since launching on Netflix on July 15, Indian crime drama Kohrra has shot to the top of the streamer’s Indian rankings and had critics, audiences and industry figures including Karan Johar raving about the show.
In addition to describing it as an atmospheric murder mystery, local critics have praised the series for being an incisive portrait of contemporary Punjab, the northwestern Indian state where it is set.
The six-part series follows two cops – played by Suvinder Vicky and Barun Sobti – investigating the murder of an Nri (non-resident Indian) who lives in London but has travelled to India for an arranged marriage. After he’s found dead in a field, with the British friend who had accompanied him also missing, the cops start to unravel not just a murder case, but a complex web of family secrets, land-related power plays, childhood trauma and parental patriarchy.

There is no doubt that T20 cricket brings the exuberance and fearlessness of youngsters to the fore but the format has also shown that there is no substitute for the experience, which plays a vital role in tense match situations
In the ongoing Ipl 2023, the likes of M.S. Dhoni, Ishant Sharma, Mohit Sharma, and Piyush Chawla have proved that experiences cannot be brought from the market and they still have that hunger and desire to learn, re-invent and make an impact for their respective teams.
Many of them were almost forgotten stars before the start of the Ipl 2023, but the veterans have defied age and expectations and rewound the clock with their impressive outings in the field.

It has been nearly four years since M.S. Dhoni retired from international cricket, but the 41-year-old continues to deliver for his team Chennai Super Kings in Ipl with both bat and captaincy.

Chennai, May 6 (Ians) Former India cricketer Sunil Gavaskar has suggested that Mumbai Indians skipper Rohit Sharma should take a break from the Indian Premier League (Ipl) 2023 and focus on preparations for next month’s World Test Championship Final instead.
On Saturday, against Chennai Super Kings at the M.A. Chidambaram Stadium, Sharma, who had scored a three-ball duck in his previous game against Punjab Kings at Mohali, decided to bat at number three, with Australia all-rounder Cameron Green opening the batting with Ishan Kishan.
But the plan backfired spectacularly as Green fell in the second over, while Kishan was dismissed in the third over. Rohit Sharma did not last long at number three, offering a simple catch to Ravindra Jadeja at backward point while trying to play a lap shot against Deepak Chahar.
In 10 matches of Ipl 2023, Sharma has scored just 184 runs at an average of 18.40 and strike-rate of 126.90, with...

Ipl 2023: We had an off-day as a batting unit, admits Rohit Sharma after Mi's six-wicket loss to Csk
Chennai, May 6 (Ians) After losing by six wickets to Chennai Super Kings (Csk) in match 49 of Indian Premier League (Ipl) 2023 at the M.A. Chidambaram Stadium on Saturday, Mumbai Indians skipper Rohit Sharma admitted that his side had an off-day with the bat.
Pushed into batting first, Mumbai’s innings never got going as they lost their top-three in Power-play. Barring Nehal Wadhera’s 64 off 50 balls, his maiden Ipl fifty and twin fifty-plus stands with Suryakumar Yadav and Tristan Stubbs, there was nothing of note as Mumbai ended up at 139/8, which Chennai chased down with 14 balls to spare.
“Everywhere, I guess. Our batters didn’t put up enough runs. We had an off-day as a batting unit,” said a dejected Rohit Sharma in the post-match presentation ceremony.

Coach Rajkumar Sharma spoke about the fearless and passionate attitude of Kohli in the latest episode of Rcb Bold Diaries where he narrated an incident from his junior days when Virat went against his mother and the coach’s advice to face players much older than him despite getting hit on the chest with the ball at the academy in West Delhi.

Hyderabad, May 5 (Ians) Kolkata Knight Riders skipper Nitish Rana stated that his logic behind giving Varun Chakaravarthy the final over, in which nine runs were needed to defend, came from him bowling much better than other spinners like the veteran Sunil Narine.
The pressure was on Chakaravarthy to defend nine runs off the final over with Abdul Samad and Bhuvneshwar Kumar at the crease. After conceding a single and leg-bye on the first two balls, the spinner had Samad mistiming a pull to deep mid-wicket and gave only one run off the last three balls to lead Kolkata to a five-run win.
“I had a doubt if I had to go with spinner/pacer (for the last over). But I just see who is bowling better on the day, whether it’s Sunny (Sunil Narine), Varun or Suyash. Whoever is bowling better, I try to give him the tough overs,...

Days before the Karnataka Assembly polls, where the name of Tipu Sultan keeps getting invoked by his right-wing critics, the makers of ‘Tipu’, the film, have announced that their feature will present a “different side” of the king of Mysuru.
Tipu Sultan, till the Bjp questioned the narrative, was known as a freedom fighter, an able administrator and the man who introduced India to rocketry. For some years now, the Bjp in Karnataka has made a political issue out of Tipu’s record of forced conversions, which is exactly what the film seeks to highlight.
The Bjp’s north-east strategist, adviser to the Manipur Chief Minister and well-known author and TV commentator Rajat Sethi has done the research for the film.
The film’s director, Pawan Sharma, said: “What we are taught in school about Tipu Sultan is gross misinformation. I stood absolutely shaken and disillusioned to know his reality as a bigoted king.

Ahmedabad, May 3 (Ians) Delhi Capitals held on their nerves and walked off with a crucial five-run win in an Ipl 2023 game against the Gujarat Titans and former India cricketer Parthiv Patel feels if skipper Hardik Pandya took a few risks, the home side could have ended the game in their favour.
The Capitals got off to a rough start with the bat but saw Aman Hakim Khan score 51 runs. Mohammed Shami ran through the Delhi top order and they were struggling at 23-5 before the lower middle order helped them put up a competent total of 130-8.
The Titans struggled as well with the bat and failed to chase the total down despite Hardik Pandya scoring 59 runs. Rahul Tewatia ensured some fireworks as he hit Anrich Nortje for three back-to-back sixes in the penultimate over and brought Gujarat back in the game. However, the experienced campaigner Ishant Sharma kept his...

Sonnet Club was launched by Sinha at the Birla School in Kamla Nagar and travelled to Ajmal Khan Park in Karol Bagh, Dcm Ground, Pgdav College, Rajdhani College and Piknic Hut before being based in the Sri Venkateswara College. Now, suddenly, the club is without a home and space for the current students to train and hone their cricketing skills.
“Yes, today was our last day of practice here. When management changes, some new people come in. Some of them are sports-minded, while some are not. We have been practising here for the last 22 years. Madam (principal of the college) then said to us that today, April 30, will be your last day here,” Devendra Sharma, the long-time coach at Sonnet Club, told Ians.
Sharma, who played 14 first-class matches for Delhi, was left wondering over the turn of events which has left Sonnet without a base now and clouds of uncertainty looming large over its future.
