IPTA’s 48th ICDC: Testament to teenage talent
An inter-collegiate short Hindustani (Hindi/Urdu) drama competition (ICDC), introduced by the Indian People’s Theatre Association (IPTA) 47 years ago, has captured the imagination of budding talent in Mumbai’s colleges.

The 48th edition took place, as usual, in September, attracting 23 entries from local educa...
2010 - The world was introduced to the Crawleys and their personnel. “Downton Abbey” took viewers by storm. I’m bed-ridden. I’m fighting a letter that more often than not, carries a death sentence.

Just like sports, movies have been around for a very long time. However, it’s hard to get interesting sports films, though film producers have started working with sports personalities to give the viewers an immersive experience in different games. Nonetheless, the success of a
sports movie depends on how well the actors can pass as athletes to make the movie realistic and interesting to watch.
Below are some of the greatest sports movies of all-time.

If you love movies, you’ll probably have favorites in every genre such as dramas, actions and maybe horrors if your taste reaches that far. However, most people rarely think of sports as a genre when choosing the movie to play. That’s mainly because most people don’t find sports

To find out, we looked at the performance of 2,911 narrative f...
