CinemaThe film is streaming on YouTube for seven days as part of the global online film festival.Sowmya RajendranAwake reminded me of William and Mary, a short story by Roald Dahl. A philosopher dies but his brain connected to one eye is kept alive, as part of a science experiment to which he had consented. His wife is at first upset with the arrangement, but slowly, she begins to enjoy the power she has over him, something she never had in their unequal marriage. It's a dark, disturbing and rewarding read. The premise for Awake, presently streaming on YouTube for seven days as part of the global online film festival on the 'We are One' channel, is more muted but evokes a similar disquiet. Directed by Atul Mongia, Awake is about a photographer named Sameera (an excellent Ishika Mohan Motwane) and her comatose husband Vikram. On the surface, Sameera appears to be a devout wife,...

Actress Swara Bhasker is undergoing action workshops with action directors to prepare for the role of a police officer in crime thriller series "Flesh".
An Eros Now's show, "Flesh" revolves around the global human trafficking industry and how a police officer takes matters onto herself.
"It's exciting and obviously intimidating as well. Brave and honest police officers are the real heroes of our society and it has been a real learning experience to know about the challenges and limitations within which cops in India operate," Swara said in a statement.
"I think that women in the forces - whether it's the armed forces or law enforcement agencies - are very special because as a society we expect men to be protectors and enforcers and women to be providers. So female police officers are actually stretching the limits of traditionally prescribed gender roles and I find that very inspiring," she added.

Break Ke Baad has a very young team. Right from the director Danish Aslam to the actors Imran Khan, Deepika Padukone, Shahana Goswami, Yudhishtir Urs as well as the crew members are all young. Naturally, the mood on the sets was always relaxed and happy.
In fact, on packing up, they organized a lot of parties as well. But here's the flip side. The director of the film Danish Aslam had made it a rule that no one would be allowed to go clubbing if an early-morning shoot was to follow.
That's not all. No one on the sets was allowed to use a cellphone. If someone's phone rang he/she would pay a fine, ranging from 500 to 5000 depending on the person's responsibility.
And the money collected would then be spent on weekend partying.
Watch this space because we have loads of interviews coming up all for Break Ke Baad!
