To begin with, the track from the third season of Mismatched seamlessly made its way to the loyal audience of the Rohit Saraf and Prajakta Koli-fronted show, which has earned as much love for its narrative as it has for its music. Furthermore, with the upbeat, dance-worthy, and addictive number, the musicians have managed to grab the attention of listeners who are already in the mood to party. Rohit Saraf and Prajakta Koli Sure, the makers would have ascertained that the track fit the narrative like a hand in a glove, but, Gumshuda is also refreshingly individualistic. It is also how the duo first crafted the song before it caught the attention of ...

Crafting a world filled with love and music takes time. That probably explains why creator-director Anand Tiwari took four years to return with the second season of Bandish Bandits. Tell him that the gap between the two instalments of the Prime Video series was quite long, and he says it was intentional. “We took exactly the time that we took to make season one. We wanted to do it with as much responsibility as we did in season one. Bandish is a unique [narrative] because the story is of musicians, by musicians and for musicians. It gets consumed by everyone because we relate to the inter-personal dynamics, their dysfunctionality, loss, love and insecurities,” he begins. Anand Tiwari Starring Ritwik Bhowmik and Shreya Chaudhry, Bandish Bandits became a hit upon its première in 2020 as it...

Bandish Bandits season 2Director: Anand TiwariCast: Ritwik Bhowmik, Shreya Chaudhry, Sheeba Chaddha, Atul Kulkarni, Rajesh Tailang, Divya Dutta, Rohan Gurbaxani, Yashaswini DayamaEpisodes: 8   When there is a considerable gap between two seasons of a show, you run the risk of having lost connect with the audience.

Truth be told, I was initially not very keen on watching season 1, which released in the middle of the pandemic. But when you are working from home in a lockdown situation, you end up consuming more content than you intend to. Plus some friends who had watched it had praised the show, and it had the lure of veteran actors like Naseeruddin Shah and Atul Kulkarni. I watched sea...

Three men sued Sean “Diddy” Combs in New York on Thursday, claiming the hip-hop mogul drugged and raped them. The lawsuits, which were filed anonymously in a state court, add to a wave of sexual assault litigation against the rapper, producer and record executive as he also faces federal sex trafficking charges in New York.Thomas Giuffra, a New York attorney who filed Thursday’s lawsuits on the men’s behalf, said Combs used his power and wealth to take advantage of the accusers and then ensured their silence through threats and fear.“This is a long overdue opportunity for the victims to take the power back after carrying the burden of the assaults in silence for several years,” he said in a statement. “While a lawsuit will not undo the wrongs done to them, it enables the survivors to regai...
