All the victims, including 18 foreigners, were hacked to death with machetes. Bangladesh has been on a heightened state of alert in the wake of the killings in Dhaka last Friday night and many Eid services in- cluded pleas from religious leaders for an end to the violence. “Allah, protect our country ... and protect our children from the evils of terrorism,” Mohammad Sadequl Islam, the local imam, told a gathering of around 5,000 devotees at Dhaka’s Mahakhali neigh- bourhood. Many of those who attended services in Dhaka could be seen weep- ing as clerics led prayers for a more peaceful and prosperous Bangladesh. The biggest service in the capital was at the Nation- al Eidgah Maidan where more than 50,000 people, including Bangladesh’s President Abdul Hamid, took part in prayers un- der a giant canopy.Police brought in scanners and sniffer dogs to check for bombs as crowds were forced to wait for up to an hour before being cleared to enter the grounds where the service was held. No one was allowed to bring in bags. Bangladesh has been reeling from a growing wave of attacks since the turn of the year, many of which have been claimed by the self-styled Islamic State group or an offshoot of the Al-Qaeda network. However Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina’s government has consis- tently denied internation- al jihadist networks have gained a foothold and have said the weekend attack in Dhaka was carried out by a local Islamist group. Bangladesh’s Information Minister Hasanul Haq Inu again portrayed the latest attack as being designed to topple Hasina.

QUOTE OF THE

DAYSultan is a hit: Sound and fury over Salman comment signifies nothingIt has just been a day but Salman Khan is back to set-ting the box office on fire . His Eid blockbuster Sul-tan has set cash registers ringing across India. Thou-sand-seater multiplexes are packed, distributors are beaming and trade analysts are feverishly speculat-ing on how many records the film will break. Chants of Bhai, Bhai are back outside cinemas. It is diffi-cult to imagine that same time last week, the pop-ular actor was under siege with waves of condem-nation attempting to bury his larger-than-life image in the wake of controversial comments comparing his post-shoot fatigue to a rape victim. Khan’s com-ments were dissected threadbare at 9pm television debates, anchors cried themselves hoarse invoking women’s rights and safety and the National Com-mission for Women summoned the actor. Social me-dia was flooded with comments of people disgusted with Khan, vowing to never watch his films. Think pieces on his toxic masculinity gathered thousands of ‘likes’ and commentators speculated on the end of his wild popular and often inexplicable popular-ity. But like any other episode of Facebook-fuelled outrage, many people seem to have lost their fire for women’s rights and are back at the theatres cheer-ing the same man they professed to hate a week ago. The film earned Rs 36.54 crore on its first day. Even at skyrocketing ticket prices, this means thou-sands of people watched Sultan notwithstanding the hand-wringing around rape culture a week ago. The apparent collective memory loss suggests two things. One, our responses to issues of social justice are often performances for the galleries instead of genuine introspection. In Salman’s case, thousands of us rushed to condemn him on social media but didn’t question the presence of the same patriarchy in our lives--we didn’t think of when we make casu-al sexist jokes, when we inadvertently make work-places unsafe for women, when we reduce women to their looks in engineering and scientific institutes and when we make it impossible for women to step out and enjoy public spaces. We bandied the word ‘rape culture’ about and berated Salman for further-ing it, but didn’t think about the WhatsApp forwards in our phones that are as offensive as Salman’s com-ments. We didn’t wonder if watching movies with the same violent language and actions will bolster a culture where sexual violence is seen as a legit-imate tool to silence women. But the second and more important take-away is that it never helps to put all the blame on individuals for prejudices in our society’s structures. Salman Khan was a prominent target and it is important to condemn his words but such critique will do little to smash patriarchy if the words don’t shape our actions. So the next time we condemn a celebrity bad boy, maybe we will spare some time to question the insidious everyday misog-yny and patriarchy that so many of us benefit from. Maybe we will think about making our public spac-es safer, calling out colleagues who leer or are sexist or complain against teachers who abuse or harass students. But more importantly, maybe we will start thinking of patriarchy as a structure that oppresses a vast section of women and non-binary, LGBT folks instead of individual acts.

We all agree that Kangana Ranaut is the Queen of Bollywood. The versatile actress has played a plethora of roles but her next

is really out of the box — she is playing Praful Patel. The first look of the film landed on Wednesday and the method ac-

tor is in her elements once again. But before we say more, here is Simran’s first look. The actress is being directed by H a n - sal Mehta (Aligarh) in the film.

The film is titled Simran and is allegedly inspired by the life of an NRI nurse in the US, Sand-eep Kaur. She was sent to prison last year for

robbing banks to pay off her gambling debts.While

Hansal has kept mum on wheth- er Simran deals with Sandeep’s life

or not, he has us confused with the first look of the film. In here, Kangana has been introduced as Praful Patel. So if Kangana is Praful, who is Simran? And while we are it,

why use the name of the former cabinet minister? Produced by Bhushan Kumar and Shailesh Singh, Simran is scripted by Apurva Asrani. The film will start shooting in August in the US. Kangana would be seen next in Vishal Bhardwaj’s Ran-goon, which also stars Shahid Kapoor and Saif Ali Khan.

Nine persons were ar-rested in ‘Great Grand Masti’ movie leak the after Crime branch con-ducted raids. Six cases were registered against them under the Copy-right Act. The Riteish Deshmukh-Aftab Shi-vdasani-Vivek Oberoi starrer was supposed to hit screens on July 22, almost 17 days from now. But like Udta Pun-

jab, the prints of the film were leaked online ahead of its release. The com-plete film, at 2 hours 14 minutes, has been leaked online and the prints can be found on many piracy sites from Monday. Pre-viously, Shahid Kapoor’s Udta Punjab also faced a similar fate. Less than a month after Udta Pun-jab’s leak this phenom-enon struck Bollywood again. This time the dam-ages are far greater. The

prints of Udta Punjab leaked two days before it hit screens whereas for Great Grand Masti the prints are out almost three weeks ahead of its release and it would defi-nitely prove detrimental to the film. But now, fol-lowing the leak, the team has decided to release the sex comedy ahead of time and will not hit theatres on July 15, one week before its original date.

Mani Ratnam, the ‘mas-ter of romance’, is back with his new film, Kaatru Veliyidai. The first poster of the film is out and like most of Mani Ratnam’s romances, looks beauti-ful.

Salman Khan re-established his stature as the superstar with Dabangg in 2012. And Sonakshi Sinha, who played his love interest, was part of the two installments we have seen so far. Reports now claim that Dabanng 3 may not feature Sonakshi at all. The actor has been dropped from the movie over an alleged friction with Salman Khan, SpotBoye report-ed on Thursday. As per the report, it all started when Sonakshi turned down Arbaaz Khan’s production Dolly Ki Doli which was offered to her by the Kick actor. Re-portedly, the two also had a showdown at Salman’s sister Arpita’s wedding in November 2014, and since then, they are not on talking terms. “Salman is not keen on working with Sonakshi. So, the producers are looking out for another actress. Nobody has been finalised yet,” the entertainment website quoted a source as saying. Sonakshi made her Bol-lywood debut with Dabangg, which not only earned her public recognition but also a Filmfare Award for Best Fe-male Debut.

also has a strong message in it. I want people to see it and take that message back home.” The film’s first look was revealed on Thursday, which shows Shroff wearing a turban and a mask. Beneath him, we see the expanse of a city. Asked why Indians cannot look beyond Shak-timaan or Krissh when it comes to Indian super-heroes, D’Souza said, “I want to create that. I want to create a superhero... which everyone will say that we have a superhero called A Flying Jatt.”

Kaatru Veliyidai stars Karthi and Aditi Rao Hydari

flying in the midst of love and romance. After Mani Ratnam’s highly success-ful OK Kanmani, this one also follows the genres of romance and family dra-ma. It will see Karthi play an air force pilot with Adi-ti as his lady love. The film will also feature popular RJ Balaji in a small role as

Karthi’s friend. With mu-sic by AR Rahman, Kaa-tru Veliyidai is produced by Mani Ratnam’s home banner Madras Talkies. Sri Thenandal Films has acquired its Tamil Nadu theatrical rights. It will si-multaneously be made in Tamil, Telugu and Mala-yalam.

Prints of the film were leaked online, weeks ahead of its previous release date which was July 12. The

Acoustic shock waves could speed up a muscle’s healing process, and help injured athletes return to training and competitions more quickly than with traditional treatments, a new study in rats suggests. Applying low-frequency shock waves in a ther-apy called Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (ESWT) is already a promising technique for in-juries like ligament and tendon damage. “To our knowledge, there are no experiments exploring the benefits of ESWT in muscle damage, one of the most common causes of injury in competitive sports,” said Angela Zissler, from the University of Salzburg in Austria. “By accelerating the muscle healing process, ESWT could get athletes back in the game faster after injury,” Zissler said. ESWT works by mechanically stimulating the tissue, which recruits stem cells to kick-start repairs. ”The detailed cellular and molecular processes activated

by ESWT have been unclear,” said Zissler.

Ringing Bells, the Noida-based firm that ran into controversy after announcing a Rs 251 phone five months back, today claimed it will start shipping the cheapest smartphone ever, from tomorrow. In February, the company announced the Freedom 251 phone which saw a mad rush of over 70 million peo-ple jostling to register but when the prototype was presented to media it turned out to be produced by another manufacturer with its logo covered. This led to protests from buyers and consequent inquiries by police and tax officials, forcing the company to stop sale of the product and offer refunds to those who had booked the phone. The Freedom 251 prototype touts a quad-core processor, a 4-inch screen and front and back cameras, priced at an astonishingly low rate of Rs 251. Ringing Bells Director Mohit Goel, who had last week stated that his company will soon start shipping 200,000 smartphones to buyers picked by lottery, today said deliveries will

MS dhoni’s 224 vs Australia: The day Australia were smashed to pulp

H.S. Agency| New Delhi

February 24, 2013, a his-toric day when swagger-ing MS Dhoni reduced the mighty Australians to nothingness, as he plundered 224 runs and took India out of the woods. Before this Test, in a span of 2 years, a whitewash in England and Australia despite boasting of an experienced line-up had put Captain Cool’s captaincy on the line. Gradually, he lost his Midas touch after a 1-2 drubbing, on home soil, against England. But isn’t it always dark just before the dawn? Kaustubh S. Mayekar takes us down memory lane and relives Dhoni’s best knock in the longest format. Aus-tralia won the toss, and unhesitatingly chose to bat first on a belter of a track. Captain Michael Clarke’s 130 put them in a commanding position,

but were eventually skit-tled out for 380, courte-sy Ravichandran Ash-win’s stunning seven-for. Against the might of the famed Indian batting or-der, 380 was certainly not enough. However, the young James Pat-tinson knocked over the top three batsmen, comprising Virender Sehwag, Murali Vijay and Cheteshwar Puja-ra, and reduced India to 105 for 3.

Eoin Morgan ended the game with a big six over midwicket as England beat Sri Lanka by eight wickets in their only Twenty20 game on Tues-day. England’s victory ensured it won every con-test — including the test and one-day series — and didn’t lose a game during Sri Lanka’s tour. England captain Morgan ended 47 not out as the home team easily chased down Sri Lanka’s 140 all out at the Rose Bowl after the tourists won the toss and chose to bat. England finished on 144-2 in 17.3 overs, with opener Jos Buttler’s 73 from 49 balls the key innings. Buttler and Morgan shared an

Along the way their songful, good-natured fans won admirers across the conti-nent, leaving the players determined to make sure that they will not have another six decades to wait for another overseas adventure. “We’ve had a taste of it now and we look forward to the future,”

After getting to her first Wimbledon semifinal since 2009, and first at any Grand Slam tournament since a year later, she was asked what she learned in recent times, while deal-ing with an energy-sap-ping disease and a series of earlier-than-usual exits from majors. “It’s hard to say just one lesson,” she began. “It’s easy to

be afraid; you have to let fear go. Another lesson is you just have to believe in yourself. You just have to. There’s no way around it. You’ve got to believe in yourself. No matter how things are stacked against you, you just have to, every time.” Williams never lost that belief, the self-confidence that she still could compete at the highest level, the certain-

ty that it made no sense to give up, to retire from the tour. “The good part is, I always felt like I had the game. This is always a plus, when you know you have the game,” said Williams, who owns sev-en Grand Slam titles, including five at the All England Club, but none since 2008. “So you just have to keep working un-til things fall into place.”
