It is a dark day for freedom of expression
"It is a dark day for freedom of expression and creativity in the country,"
Mukesh Bhatt said, calling Nihalani a "stooge" of the government."I request
Congress, AAP and other political parties to stay out of my battle..The AAP and
Congress had earlier accused Punjab's ruling SAD-BJP alliance of exercising its
influence to "censor" the movie, a charge denied by the state government. I
speak only on my behalf," he said."I always wondered what it felt like to live
in North Korea.The petition, filed by Phantom Films, a production and
distribution company established by Anurag Kashyap, sought a direction from the
high court to the government and the Censor Board to hand over a copy of the
review committee's decision on the "objectionable" scenes and dialogues in the
film.Kashyap had yesterday hit out at Censor Board chief Pahlaj Nihalani,
calling him "oligarch" and "dictator".
It's my Rights vs the Censorship.
Kashyap had yesterday hit out at Censor Board chief Pahlaj Nihalani, calling him
"oligarch" and "dictator" and that it was like living in North Korea...,"
Kashyap posted on Twitter.The makers of the film are said to have been asked by
the Review Committee of Censor Board to remove all references to Punjab and make
89 cuts.The Shahid Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, Kareena Kapoor Khan and Diljit Dosanjh
starrer movie that delves into how the youth in Punjab have succumbed to drugs
has also unleashed political sparring prompting Kashyap to ask parties to stay
away from the censorship row.Amid the controversy over drug-themed Bollywood
film 'Udta Punjab', its producers moved the Bombay High Court today seeking a
copy of the order passed by Censor Board's Review Committee purportedly
suggesting cuts in the movie and removal of reference to Punjab in it. Punjab
goes to polls next year.
He got the support of several filmmakers, including
Karan Johar, Mahesh Bhatt, Ram Gopal Varma and Mukesh Bhatt.The textile manufacturers
"Bombay Velvet" director took to Twitter to vent his ire at Censor Board and
said there is no sense of freedom. The movie is slated for release on June
17.The petition said that producers have not yet been given a copy of the order
by the government or the Censor Board and that unless they had a copy of the
order in hand, how could they proceed in the matter to undertake the amendments
purportedly suggested by the Committee on May 3.The petition, filed through law
solicitor film Naik Naik and Co, is slated to come up for hearing before a bench
headed by Justice S C Dharmadhikari this afternoon. Ab to plane pakadney ki bhi
zaroorat nahin. Kashyap, however, said they are waiting for an "official letter"
from the Board on the issue

The designer feels that when opting
â€Brushed suede finishThis particular type of finish has a sheen and scattered
texture to it. When a wall is given this effect, the general appearance is of
some places where the colour is dark and other places where there is a lighter
play. If the theme is colonial, the upholstery selected cannot be purely
contemporary, a mix of contemporary and modern with contrast curtains is wise.
The faux finish uses a dark shade underneath, and a lighter one on top,
depending on the colour palette you use. A lot of factors depend on the type of
stone finish, like the ceiling height, ambience etc. There are a wide range of
finishes that one can choose from — Glass mosaic, mirror, laminate and many
more. City-based interior designer Rani Bharathan elaborates, "Textured paint
pitted finish can be used to brighten up any wall. But, what works best for your
personal space? Interior designers in the city speak about the type of finishes
that can be used, and the ways in which we can enhance a wall to tell a story.
Faux finishes can help spruce up any wall and turn it into a statement, be it
that drab corner that needed some colour infusion or the corridor that needed
brightness.
One can spot two colours — darker grey and a lighter one. If one
wants to indulge in a very expressive colour like gold and grey, Automobil
Headliner Fabrics factory with this finish one can find bits of gold popping
out.Textured paint pitted finishTextured paint pitted finish is a technique
where a combination of colours are used normally as a base and top colour. Ravi
Roshan, a designer explains, "When the statement wall is small, large blocks of
stone cannot be used as it will not lend the proper aesthetics. This is a
cheaper way to replicate a concrete wall effect.The interior walls of a home can
sometimes define the type of person living in it. Pitted basically means dots
similar to those one sees on a concrete wall. And if one wants to use a sofa to
decorate, the upholstery should be less dramatic,†she adds. A great way to
enhance this would be to add the delicate hues of a copper or bronze light with
a matte finish and a wooden table.â€Textured sand finishTextured sand finish is
achieved when sand particles and glue are mixed into paint.â€. The market now has
sand textured paint that can be used to obtain this particular affect.
City-based interior designer Kate Jose explains, "This faux finish is pretty
straight forward, and it uses a satin texture. So, many people prefer to change
the walls to hues or different shades to add punch to the ambience.Stone
finishThe theme and interiors play a huge role in what stone finish you choose.â€
The designer feels that when opting for an earthy look, glass is not
recommended. A house with walls in just one solid colour tends to get a bit
boring and drab. When a particular type of roller and technique is used, the
bottom colour comes out well. City-based interior designer Soumitha Roy feels
that this finish is more natural, "When one uses this finish, which is
essentially earthy or cement, the element around it should be natural as well,
for example, a wooden table. Minimal is the way forward. A wall like this can be
enhanced with proper lighting as well, which endows it with a special hue. "But
a glass lamp can be used when the textured wall is white, giving it a
contemporary look. "In order to enhance the overall look, one or two vintage
pieces can be added for drama, but I can even visualise a few contemporary
pieces. Furniture around the statement wall should compliment the colours being
used. That is where faux finishes rule the roost, and give your walls an
identity and class. It depends on the type of brush you pick, and also the
stroke of the hand

A process in which additional fabric is sewn onto
"When one increases the intricacy of the style and surface development, it makes
it more difficult for a fast fashion house to copy it and mass produce such
pieces of intricacy,†she says about a similar sentiment that echoes in her own
line of hand embellished motifs, each with its own story, showcased at the New
York Fashion Week recently.Looks like runways are now the new gardens for this
is where the flowers are in full bloom!It’s no longer floral prints for
designers who are giving the flower power a new wholesale curtain
fabric twist. "Make it the centre of your outfit and work around it. To me,
the embroidered floral trend is a perfect combination of feminine meets edgy,â€
she says.Being dubbed as edgy, believe us when we say that there’s nothing this
trend hasn’t owned yet – from pinstriped and poplin shirts to luxe satin bomber
jackets, elaborate lehengas and capes, crisp kurtas, boyfriend jeans, leather
skirts, bags, loafers and belts even!
"Embroideries have been called the craft
of two hands and have always found their way in fashion across the globe since
ancient times. "I bought a suede skirt with bold floral embroidery a couple of
years ago because it looked unique. Since adding texture is another way to make
this trend stand out, how about pairing a black silk shirt with an A-line
embroidered, velvet mini? Want to go casual chic? Layer a shirt with floral
motifs under a suede shirt and polish the look with leather pants. They are
further notorious for making the garment special as the tradition of
handcrafting goes a long way,†says city-based designer Runa Ray, drawing upon
its history.According to Bengaluru-based fashion blogger Nilu Yuleena Thapa,
this is a classic. If it’s a top or kurta, then pair it with a bright colour
which contrasts with the colour of the applique to make it look visually
appealing,†says city-based stylist Nishka Guleria Naidu, deriving her aesthetic
from designers such as Alexander McQueen, Ralph Russo and Paolo Sebastian. And
in terms of styling, they follow a similar rule.
A process in which additional
fabric is sewn onto a design, creating a decorative 3D effect, floral appliqués
are now making a comeback too. Guess it’s time to sew up spring then!. In what’s
one step further from Gucci-inspired embroidered patches, this season, it’s time
to add a hint of spring to your wardrobe with floral embroidery and appliqués.
For a classic combination with a twist, marry a crisp white shirt with a pair of
embroidered high-waisted jeans.Your safest bet to dipping your toe in this trend
is an embroidered jacket. Now that this embellishment is becoming more
industrial and mass produced, Runa notes that designers are trying to fight fast
fashion houses – especially those that copy products off the runway. If your
jeans have appliqué detailing, opt for a neutral top and very edgy shoes to draw
attention downwards. "I see myself wearing a floral embroidered biker jacket
with skirts, denims, and even a simple dress that highlights the embroidery,â€
adds the blogger at Big Hair Loud Mouth. Its novelty and possibility to style in
many different ways is what makes the piece versatile
