Oh Brother!
Taimur isn’t mostly a smil­
ing lad, grimacing and
mooning about, poor thing,
hauled about by his movie­
star mom and mercilessly
blinded by photographers’
flashes. Another day, another
shot, a more content cherub cling­
ing on to ano ther fam ous mother. Is
Sunny’s boy Noah or Asher—they
didn’t know, those who noted the
amazing likeness between the
two boys flanking us.

“I personally feel that, in an ideal world, any actor should be able to play
anybody and Art, in all forms, should be immune to political correctness.” —
SCARLETT JOHANSSON, who played an Asian character in Ghost in the Shell.


Blue Becomes Her
Don’t know if Kriti
Sanon—backlit beautifully
by an azure sky and striped
by a swing—is too chic to
go as a ‘small­town jou r­
nalist’ in a movie old­fash­
ionedly named Arjun
Patiala. We’ll judge her
acting skills on this one
though, hoping she’d make
use of the wholesomeness
that Diljit Dosanjh has
to proffer.
