Image
  Shatrughan Sinha is now standing on the other side of the law in Bihar. The actor turned MP from the political party BJP has been issued an  arrest warrant  on the charges of violating the model code. Sinha was holding a meeting in Bihar for the upcoming election last  year  for the candidate from Ramnagar. The FIR against the actor has been filed as his helicopter landed in the West Champaran district  at the village of Belwa Bahauri without the permission of the authorities. Nishant Kumar Tiwari, the superintendent of police has said that the arrest warrant was issued after an inquiry was set up and the report found the MP to be guilty. Shatrughan Sinha is on cloud nine these days after his daughter Sonakshi became a raging success with her debut film Dabaang opposite  Salman Khan .

HAL rally to hold Mohun Bagan........

BANGALORE: Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) rallied superbly to maintain their unbeaten record against  Mohun Bagan  in this season's I-League, holding the Kolkata side to a 1-1 draw in the 15th round at the Sree Kanteerava Stadium here on Sunday. On a turf, that is now a talking point with the visiting clubs due to its pathetic condition, both the teams played well in patches with the hosts coming up with a vastly improved performance in the second half to deny their fancied opponents. Though the second session saw more action at the goalmouth, it didn't result in any goals. Both the goals came in the first session and both resulted from booming long rangers. Bagan took the lead in the 31st minute when  Surkumar Singh  made full use of his hassle-free movement in the rival half. From about 25-30 yards, the  India  international got a clear view of the goal and unleashed a power-packed volley that crashed into the right corner of the goal guarded by  P Pramod . HAL  we

Salman moves on from Chulbul Pandey to Lovely Singh…

Image
Names like Rahul, Rohit, Rohan, Prem and Raj is no more used in Bollywood. Its an era of Chulbul Pandey and  Robin hood  Pandey. After Chulbul Pandey, Salman Khan will now be called as Lovely Singh. Salman Khan’s character in Bodyguard is called Lovely Singh. Apparently, they wanted it to be Chulbul Pandey, but  the star  did not want his trademark Dabangg name in it. Lovely Singh is also the name of a B-Town director who made Kya Love Story Hai. Be it Chulbul Pandey or Lovely Sigh, Salman will  be loved  by his fans in any forms and figure.

Maruti Suzuki SX4 Diesel Launched...

Image
Powered by the same 1.3 litre DDiS engine on the Swift, Dzire and the Ritz, the diesel version of the Maruti Suzuki SX4 will retail for 7.74 lakhs for the VDI and 8.62 lakhs for the ZDi version Most cars in the B and C segment in India today are being offered both in the petrol and diesel versions, not only to match the same on offer by their competitors, but more so because of the evolution of our discerning customers, who have come to realize the long-term benefits of owning an ‘oil burner’ . Offering higher efficiency in the form of power, torque and mileage it’s the diesel variants of our favourite hatchbacks and sedans that inspite digging deeper into our pockets on ‘pay day’, ultimately leave us with a smile on our faces. Many of the top selling sedans in the Indian market today are being offered with the diesel option, and though a majority of them are on offer by international car manufacturers like Fiat, Volkswagen, Hyundai and Toyota it’s the country’s largest passenger car

Katrina follows Salman’s footsteps

Image
Katrina  Kaif will be seen in ‘Main Krishna Hoon’ which is being  produced  by her long-term hairdresser Pomila Hunter. Her role in  the film  is going to be a cameo and will be seen in the second half of the flick. Katrina Kaif is said to have signed the film for free. Debutant producer Pomila confirms the news. This is not the first time that such a thing has happened in Bollywood. Earlier  Amitabh Bachchan  appeared in the Bhojpuri film ‘Ganga’ that was made by Deepak Sawant, the make-up man of Big B’s for 30years. And this time, Katrina Kaif’s turn to lend her helping hand to Pomila. Kat might not be with Salman Khan anymore, but in all likelihood it appears that the generosity of the superstar has rubbed onto the ex-of the hunk. So after doing a cameo in Shirish Kunder’s upcoming flick ‘Joker’ alongside the lead pair of the film Sonakshi Sinha and Akshay Kumar in ‘Joker’, she will be seen in ‘Main Krishna Hoon’ also.

SRK’s violent look in ‘Don 2′…

Image
Shah Rukh Khan’s much-hyped look in his upcoming film, Don 2 is no longer a secret.  While  the film’s publicists officially distributed SRK’s  pictures  from Don 2 on Sunday, fact is that his new look was leaked all over the Internet much earlier. Shah Rukh Khan looked ‘sorta’ disconcerting in graying beard and long hair neatly tucked under a black knit hairband at Videocon owner Venugopal Dhoot’s daughter’s  wedding  at Mahalaxmi Race Course in Mumbai. Don 2 is set to hit theaters on 23 December 2011

Why men are more intelligent than women........

Why men are more intelligent than women Why men are more intelligent than women Published on January 18, 2009 The answer is:  They aren’t. The orthodoxy in  intelligence  research for the second half of the 20th century had been that men and women had the same average intelligence, but men had greater variance in their distribution than women.  Most geniuses were men, and most imbeciles were men, they said, while most women were in the normal range.  This conclusion, however, was  manufactured  out of political expediency.  Not wanting to discover, or a priori denying, any  sex  differences in intelligence, psychometricians simply deleted from the standardized IQ tests any item on which the performance of men and women differed. More recently, however, especially since the turn of the millennium, there have been an increasing number of studies that cast doubt on this politically correct conclusion.  Studies with large representative national samples from Spain, Denmark, and the Unit
