Glamour & Cricket

Summary This episode guides us through the evolution of cricket as it slowly and steadily entered the world of glamour. Cricket and Bollywood began as two entirely different entities. The bond between them began to blossom with Tiger Pataudi, a Nawab with his own panache and extreme talent in cricket. Then, during the 80s, with the entry and exit of Sandeep Patil, the idea of glamour even threatened to overpower the spirit of the game. Today, however, there is a balanced amalgamation of one entity into the other, especially after the introduction of IPL, a cricket and business venture which saw Bollywood stars owning and actively supporting cricket teams both on and off the field. Cricketers too, though more involved in fashion and lifestyle and their respective public image, are still able to maintain focus on the game.

Cries from Syria

Cries from Syria

CRIES FROM SYRIA is a searing, comprehensive account of a brutal five-year conflict from the inside out, drawing on hundreds of hours of war footage from Syrian activists and citizen journalists, as well as testimony from child protesters, leaders of the revolution, human rights defenders, ordinary citizens, and high-ranking army generals who defected from the government. Their collective stories are a cry for attention and help from a world that little understands their reality or agrees on what to do about it. A documentary by Evgeny Afineevsky, director of the Oscar-nominated film WINTER ON FIRE, CRIES FROM SYRIA premiered at the 2017 Sundance Film Festival.
