Stars descend on Screen stage tonight

Stars descend on Screen stage tonight

When the countryâ€s most respected film awards completes 20 years, it calls for celebration. Which is what the Kamla Pasand 20th Annual Life OK Screen Awards on Tuesday evening promises to be.

At a glittering awards function at the MMRDA Grounds, Bandra-Kurla Complex, the best cinema of 2013 will be honoured amid a congregation of the finest talent in the industry, spiced up by a heady dose of glamour from the stars. The backdrop of the eveningâ€s stage theme will be gold â€" befitting the mood and the occasion.

The beautiful mix of glamour and talent was in fact a defining characteristic of the cinema of 2013 â€" a landmark year during which the industry threw its weight behind independent cinema, bringing it into the mainstream. So, if Karan Johar produced Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani, the first film of the year to up the box-office benchmark to Rs 200 crore, he also backed debut director Ritesh Batraâ€s international co-production, The Lunchbox.

And Disney UTV, which produced Chennai Express, also distributed Anand Gandhiâ€s experimental film Ship of Theseus and Hansal Mehtaâ€s gritty Shahid, a biopic on the slain human rights lawyer Shahid Azmi.

The nominations reflect this. So, the talented Rajkummar Rao who played the title role in Shahid, and Bollywood newbie Dhanush who was the obsessive lover in Raanjhanaa, will be up against awards night regulars Aamir Khan and Shah Rukh Khan for the Best Actor (Male) trophy. The healthy competition promises to change to camaraderie on stage â€" as Shah Rukh takes on the role of the host.

Deepika Padukone was the golden girl of 2013 â€" with back-to-back blockbusters in Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani, Race 2, Chennai Express and Goliyon Ki Rasleela â€" Ram-Leela. Still in a celebratory mood, she will move the party with not one, but four acts on awards night.

While Deepikaâ€s performance promises to send the glamour quotient soaring, the actor â€" with two nominations in the Best Actor (Female) category â€" will face stiff competition from the upcoming Shraddha Kapoor (Aashiqui 2), Nimrat Kaur (The Lunchbox) and Parineeti Chopra (Shuddh Desi Romance).

In the running in the popular category is Ranveer Singh, who demonstrated his versatility with two distinct roles in 2013 â€" as the charming thief in Lootera, and an over-the-top lover in Ram-Leela. At Screen Awards, he is likely to floor his audience with an elaborate tribute to Hindi cinemaâ€s comic actors.

The year also saw India produce action films that matched Hollywood: the sci-fi thriller Krrish 3, espionage thriller Madras Cafe and the third installment of the heist-caper series Dhoom. The Screen Awards will celebrate this with a live action act â€" a first for any awards night in India â€" directed by the action team of Dhoom 3, comprising Conrad E Palmisano and Sham Kaushal, and presented by actor Sonu Sood.

But as always, what will eventually reign on this night of glamour, glitz and larger-than-life entertainment, is talent and quality cinema.

As Irrfan, nominated in the Best Actor category for his performance in The Lunchbox, put i”: â€In 2013, there were many films I thoroughly enjoyed, such as Shahid, Ram-Leela and Raanjhanaa. The young talent

Sachin Pilot Appointed Rajasthan Congress Chief

Marking a generational shift in state politics, Union Minister Sachin Pilot was today appointed the Congress chief in Rajasthan where the party faced a rout in Assembly polls.

The 36-year-old Minister for Corporate Affairs is a close associate of party Vice President Rahul Gandhi and is the son of late Union Minister Rajesh Pilot and Rama Pilot, who was also MP for a term.

He replaces incumbent Chandrabhan, who was defeated in the Assembly polls.

Pilot's appointment as PCC chief comes a month after the party's poor performance in the desert state. Congress could secure just 21 out of the 200 Assembly seats, marking the ignominious defeat of the Ashok Gehlot-led Congress government.

Pilot has been given the party mantle just three months before the Lok Sabha elections. His appointment also comes at a time when the Congress faces an uphill task with Narendra Modi especially focusing on the state neighbouring Gujarat.

Rajasthan has 25 Lok Sabha seats.

Welcoming his appointment, AICC general secretary in-charge for Rajasthan Gurudas Kamat said it is an "excellent choice" and Pilot will give a "new direction" to the PCC.

Sources said that apart from Pilot, a number of other leaders were also in the race for the job including AICC general secretary C P Joshi, Union Minister Lalchand Kataria and party MP Mahesh Joshi.

With Pilot's appointment as PCC chief, an overhaul is expected in the party's state unit. The new CLP leader for Rajasthan would be chosen in a party meeting on Wednesday with party general secretary Kamath and Union Minister Ghulam Nabi Azad going to Jaipur as observers.

"It is an excellent choice. He is a young and dynamic leader, who has proved his popularity. He comes from a very good family with his father and mother having already served the citizenry of the state. I am sure he will give a clear direction to the PCC in Rajasthan," Kamath said.
