Music Review: Manikarnika - The Queen Of Jhansi

<strong>EXPECTATIONS</strong> <em>Manikarnika - The Queen of Jhansi</em> is a dream project of Kangana Ranaut and she has given more than a year into making this happen. While it is expected that the film would have the much required scale, canvas and grandeur that the subject necessitates, the same is expected from music as well which is put together by Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy and lyricist Prasoon Joshi. <img class="aligncenter wp-image-941752 size-full" title="Music Review: Manikarnika - The Queen Of Jhansi" src="https://www.bollywoodhungama.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Music-review-–-Manikarnika-The-Queen-of-Jhansi.jpg" alt="Music Review: Manikarnika - The Queen Of Jhansi" width="720" height="405" /> <strong>MUSIC</strong> Shankar Mahadevan is the lead singer for <strong><em>‘Bharat’</em></strong>, a patriotic number which is about bringing the country first before your own self. One wonders if the song is primarily for end credits roll since its theme and tonality suggests a sober conclusion to the war drama that Kangana is bringing on screen. The soundtrack in fact concludes with another version which has Prasoon Joshi narrating (and not singing) it for the audiences. Meanwhile, Shankar Mahadevan is back with <strong><em>'Vijayi Bhava'</em></strong>, yet another theme track which is about moving ahead in the right direction and aim for victory. This is the song that should well have been positioned right at the beginning of the album since it comes with just the right kind of passion and energy that one expects from <em>Manikarnika - The Queen of Jhansi</em>. Reminding of the kind of soundtrack that <em>Baahubali</em> series boasted of, <em>'Vijayi Bhava'</em> should make for a good impression if picturised well on screen. Next to arrive is <strong><em>'Bolo Kab Pratikar Karoge'</em></strong> which has Sukhwinder Singh at the helm of affairs. Yet another song which is high on energy and should arrive at a crucial juncture of the film's narrative when the protagonist is gearing up for the battle, it has a thump to it that should make an impression when experienced in theatres. For the first time in the soundtrack a female voice is heard, what with Pratibha Singh Baghel coming behind the mike for <strong><em>'Rajaji'</em></strong>. A romantic number that should play between Manikarnika and her beau, this one has a sweet sound to it and should bring on some light moments on screen. Pratibha does well as the voice of Kangana and she is joined by Ravi Mishra who arrives in the later part of the song. Yet again, one can't expect the song to emerge as a chartbuster here but should fit in well into the film's narrative. It is back to theme songs in <em>Manikarnika - The Queen of Jhansi</em>, what with Shankar Mahadevan coming up with <strong><em>'Shiv Tandav'</em></strong>. As is expected in a song belonging to this genre, this one too stays on to be strictly situational and one waits to see how it is picturised for the big screen experience. Rest assured, one can expect Kangana Ranaut in a fiery avtar here. A song about waiting for the love of your life to be back soon, <strong><em>'Tak Taki'</em></strong> is yet another song that is rendered by Pratibha Singh Baghel. This too is a situational number and at best should aid in taking the story forward. With a period feel to it, this one does well though in staying well within the mood and ambience of the era gone by. The soundtrack concludes with <strong><em>'Dankila'</em></strong> which has a horde of singers coming together in the form of Prajakta Shukre, Shrinidhi Ghatate, Siddharth Mahadevan and Arunaja. A celebration number that should be set in the happier times of Manikarnika's life, <em>'Dankila'</em> should have arrived much earlier in the film's soundtrack. This one has the right energy to it with a peppy feel. <strong>OVERALL</strong> The music of <em>Manikarnika - The Queen of Jhansi</em> is in line with what the film's subject and narrative warranted. Though one doesn't foresee any chartbusters here, the songs should do well to aid the film's narrative. <strong>OUR PICK(S)</strong> <em>‘Dankila’</em>, <em>‘Vijayi Bhava’</em>, <em>‘Rajaji’</em>

EXCLUSIVE: Writer Kanika Dhillon bags Shah Rukh Khan-Rajkumar Hirani's next!

Shah Rukh Khan’s last film, Zero, released in December 2018 after which he went on a long sabbatical. He has been reading scripts and even shortlisted a few of them. Meanwhile, the names of a lot of filmmakers did the rounds with whom the superstar was supposedly working with. However, of late, it has come to light that SRK is working with blockbuster filmmaker Rajkumar Hirani in his next directorial flick. Recently, while answering a fan question, he also let out a strong hint that he has indeed given his nod to Rajkumar Hirani’s flick. And naturally, it led to a lot of excitement among fans.

While not much is known about the film and its subject, Bollywood Hungama has exclusively learnt that for this venture, Rajkumar Hirani and his frequent collaborator writer Abhijat Joshi have been joined by Kanika Dhillon. She has become quite well known of late thanks to her work in films like Manmarziyaan (2018), Kedarnath (2018), Judgmentall Hai Kya (2019) and the web film Guilty (2020). Interestingly, in the beginning of her career, she had extensively worked with SRK’s Red Chillies Entertainment. She worked as an assistant director on SRK’s 2007 blockbuster Om Shanti Om. She wrote the screenplay of Ra.One (2011) and additional screenplay of Always Kabhi Kabhi (2011). Rajkumar Hirani’s next hence marks Kanika’s reunion with Shah Rukh and Red Chillies Entertainment after almost 9 years.

A source close to the project says, “Kanika Dhillon has come on-board and she along with Rajkumar Hirani and Abhijat Joshi are busy scripting the film. Kanika is mainly scripting while Rajkumar and Abhijat are helping her with inputs. They are hoping to finish in a month or two. The film was to go on floors in August but due to the lockdown, it seems that the shoot will be pushed ahead.”

Rajkumar Hirani’s last film, Sanju, released in 2018 and was based on the controversial life of actor Sanjay Dutt. Starring Ranbir Kapoor, this flick emerged as the biggest hit of that year, earning Rs. 342.53 crores. Hirani, in fact, holds the envious record of not giving a single flop as a director. The source assures, “His film with Shah Rukh Khan too seems to be shaping up well, at the writing stage. And Rajkumar-Abhijat-Kanika collaboration has added a lot to the script and it’ll be something to watch out for.”

Affinity maturation, humanization, and co-crystallization of a rabbit anti-human ROR2 monoclonal antibody for therapeutic applications [Immunology]

Antibodies are widely used as cancer therapeutics, but their current use is limited by the low number of antigens restricted to cancer cells. A receptor tyrosine kinase, receptor tyrosine kinase-like orphan receptor 2 (ROR2), is normally expressed only during embryogenesis and is tightly down-regulated in postnatal healthy tissues. However, it is up-regulated in a diverse set of hematologic and solid malignancies, thus ROR2 represents a candidate antigen for antibody-based cancer therapy. Here we describe the affinity maturation and humanization of a rabbit mAb that binds human and mouse ROR2 but not human ROR1 or other human cell-surface antigens. Co-crystallization of the parental rabbit mAb in complex with the human ROR2 kringle domain (hROR2-Kr) guided affinity maturation by heavy-chain complementarity-determining region 3 (HCDR3)-focused mutagenesis and selection. The affinity-matured rabbit mAb was then humanized by complementarity-determining region (CDR) grafting and framework fine tuning and again co-crystallized with hROR2-Kr. We show that the affinity-matured and humanized mAb retains strong affinity and specificity to ROR2 and, following conversion to a T cell–engaging bispecific antibody, has potent cytotoxicity toward ROR2-expressing cells. We anticipate that this humanized affinity-matured mAb will find application for antibody-based cancer therapy of ROR2-expressing neoplasms.

Cell-specific expression of the transcriptional regulator RHAMM provides a timing mechanism that controls appropriate wound re-epithelialization [Glycobiology and Extracellular Matrices]

Prevention of aberrant cutaneous wound repair and appropriate regeneration of an intact and functional integument require the coordinated timing of fibroblast and keratinocyte migration. Here, we identified a mechanism whereby opposing cell-specific motogenic functions of a multifunctional intracellular and extracellular protein, the receptor for hyaluronan-mediated motility (RHAMM), coordinates fibroblast and keratinocyte migration speed and ensures appropriate timing of excisional wound closure. We found that, unlike in WT mice, in Rhamm-null mice, keratinocyte migration initiates prematurely in the excisional wounds, resulting in wounds that have re-surfaced before the formation of normal granulation tissue, leading to a defective epidermal architecture. We also noted aberrant keratinocyte and fibroblast migration in the Rhamm-null mice, indicating that RHAMM suppresses keratinocyte motility but increases fibroblast motility. This cell context–dependent effect resulted from cell-specific regulation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2) activation and expression of a RHAMM target gene encoding matrix metalloprotease 9 (MMP-9). In fibroblasts, RHAMM promoted ERK1/2 activation and MMP-9 expression, whereas in keratinocytes, RHAMM suppressed these activities. In keratinocytes, loss of RHAMM function or expression promoted epidermal growth factor receptor–regulated MMP-9 expression via ERK1/2, which resulted in cleavage of the ectodomain of the RHAMM partner protein CD44 and thereby increased keratinocyte motility. These results identify RHAMM as a key factor that integrates the timing of wound repair by controlling cell migration.
