Renowned director Danny Boyle has chosen a short film called ‘Manjha’ to be part of his Blu-ray DVD release of Slumdog Millionaire.

‘Manjha’ is directed by Rahi Anil Barve who is currently busy preparing for his directorial debut with WhiteCloud Pictures.

His forthcoming venture is titled ‘Tumbad’ which is based on folk tales of Maharashtra with an underlay of horror.

Rahi is in all praises by the who’s who of the industry.

Anurag Kashyap who is the Creative Producer of Rahi’s film says, “Rahi Anil Barve is the most imaginative mind I have come across in this country so far. His imagination gives me a complex. When I met him the first time, it did not take me two seconds to say that lets do whatever you want to do which ever way you want to do it”.

Danny Boyle is also going ga-ga about this.

Danny said, “I'm delighted to include ‘Manjha’ on the Blu-ray DVD release of Slumdog Millionaire throughout the world. ‘Manjha’ is an extraordinary film. With little Resources it is visually stunning, emotionally captivating, surprising and gripping, it's everything a short film should be, and I look forward with great anticipation to the Director Rahi’s next project ‘Tumbad’.

AKSHAY KUMAR IS A KITE RUNNER

With the New Year party hangover still in the air, the festive mood is rejuvenated with Lohri and Makar Sankranti that marks the beginning of the harvest season all over India. People celebrate these festivals with their family and friends with bon fires, peanuts and rewari and also kite flying.

Our very own superstar Akshay Kumar was seen on the Roxy Cinema Terrace, marking the occasion, flying kites and promoting his latest movie- “Chandni Chowk to China”. Our stud is sure Jack and Master of all trades!!

There were some apparently not noticeable movie posters attached to the table where Akshay was observed helping the kids to get the kites ready and also flying one of his own! He sure looked super striking flying those kites!! Check it out!
