11 directors come together

11 filmmakers from different parts of India have come together for a never-seen-before cinematic experience as they collaborate on one single film about one filmmaker.


What happens when ten disparate styles of filmmaking are fused together and structured to create a larger style and story?  X is a filmmaker’s journey through his past encounters with his 10 ex-girlfriends as he spends one surreal unforgettable night at a film festival after he meets a mysterious girl who intriguingly seems to have something to do with every woman in his life. Abhinav Shiv Tiwari (Oass), Anu Menon (London Paris New York), Hemant Gaba (Shuttlecock Boys), Pratim D. Gupta (Paanch Adhyay), Q (Gandu), Raja Sen (film critic), Rajshree Ojha (Aisha), Sandeep Mohan (Love, Wrinkle Free), Sudhish Kamath (Good Night Good Morning), Suparn Verma (Aatma) and Thiagarajan Kumararaja (Aaranya Kaandam) will write and direct individual segments as writer-director K (Rajat Kapoor) goes back in time as memories of his 10 ex-girlfriends haunt him over the course of one night. The filmmakers met in Mumbai last weekend to brainstorm and lock their individual segments after online interactions and exchange of over 300 mails for over six weeks. "What started out as just a random idea has blown into this big and brilliant exercise in collaboration of minds and exchange of ideas across genres," says Sudhish who was instrumental in getting the filmmakers together from everywhere - Mumbai, Delhi, Kolkata and Chennai. "In one film we are trying to mix these different textures that have made these directors win audiences from across the globe." 'X' is already into production (one of the segments has already been shot) and will come to a theatre near you later this year. Buy one filmmaker, get 10 free!

Jennifer Lawrence's Makeup-Free Look Was a Big Mistake

ll right. I'm gonna be brutally honest, here. After seeing Jennifer Lawrence's barely there makeup at the premiere of The Great Gatsby -- I really think choosing to go so light on the eyeliner and eye shadow this time around was a bad idea. Yes, I know she's young and fresh-faced and has a natural vibe going on and doesn't need a whole lot of makeup to look good. But in this case, especially given the formality of the event, she probably should've gone a bit heavier on the cosmetics. And I'll tell you why. Jen is gorgeous, but she also has a baby-faced appearance, so when she doesn't play up her eyes, she looks much younger than she actually is. Granted, for 30- and 40-somethings, this is generally a good thing. But in her case, at 22, she actually looks more like 15 when she chooses to go the minimal makeup (or makeup-free) route. She looks so much less sophisticated -- like she really didn't put any sort of effort in at all. Here's a photo of the...

"I think it's time for me to give back"- Madhuri Dixit

Whenever the subject of dance comes up, Madhuri Dixit is the reference point. Using her whole body language and rythm as an instrument to bring out the nuances of the mood, her spot on moves have inspired many cinema lovers. I was thrilled to bits when I heard that the star is in the process of launching an online dance academy. Dance With Madhuri Dixit, as the academy is aptly called, is conceptualised by RnM Moving Pictures Ltd, a company jointly owned by Madhuri and her husband, Dr Sriram Nene. The online format is her husband’s brainchild, she reveals. “Ram is extremely tech savvy. Before he joined medicine, he had a company that wrote software. He ideated the online tutorials and gave them a gaming format.” Her logic is simple. “I want everyone to experience the joy of dancing. Many don’t attend dance classes because they are shy of performing in front of others. Now, they can learn dancing in the privacy of their home. And don’t forget, dance is a good form of exercise, so t...
