This number, Morgan Stanley said, is set to rise in the next few years as Indian households are still underinvested in equities. India's demographics, policy framework, investor education and modest positive real rates, it said, will fuel the 'equity cult' in India.

"Насыщенный" / Bodied

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Heses2X2hTE

Кино о том, как белый студент литературного факультета увлекся нигерской культурой и стал королем рэп–баттлов. Я–то думал, что это будет очередная банальная история про рождение новой звезды, а оказалось — смешная, легкая и очень бодрая сатира на политкорректные нравы. Здесь троллят воинствующих феминисток, ранимых гомосексуалистов, обиженных на весь мир азиатов, мамкиных гангстеров с их показушной маскулинностью и так далее. Эпизод с "добренькими" веганами, которые в случае чего тебя с говном сожрут, пересматривал два раза и ржал как конь.
Снято ярко, броско, с визуальными финтифлюшками в духе "Скотта Пилигрима" (режиссер Джозеф Кан — известный клипмейкер, так что он умеет сделать эффектно и красиво). Думаю, интересно будет даже тем, кто, как и я, к рэпу равнодушен, тем более что кино не только о нем. В сюжет вплетены культурологические рассуждения о силе слова, о смешении культур и творческой этике, а главный герой носит майки с Достоевским и Набоковым и в баттлах рифмует "без мазы" и "Иван Карамазов" (ну, или что–то вроде того). Тоже приятно. КП (7) / IMDB (7,1)

"Победители"

https://volga-kaspiy.ru/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/deputat-s-nagradoj-1.jpg

«День Победы превращается в клоунаду»: волгоградский депутат гулял по городу с боевым орденом на груди

9 мая в Волгограде состоялись торжественные мероприятия, посвященные празднованию 75–летия Победы в Великой Отечественной войне. Все они прошли в измененном формате и дистанционно для большинства горожан, но только не для первого заместителя Волгоградской городской Думы и председателя Волгоградского регионального совета сторонников партии «Единая Россия» Андрея Гимбатова.

В День Победы Андрей Петрович каким–то странным образом оказался в числе тех, на кого ограничительные меры из–за пандемии не распространяются. Так, он был замечен на Аллее Героев, у Дома Павлова и, наконец, в строю «Бессмертного полка», где также присутствовал Андрей Бочаров и Виталий Лихачев.

Одна деталь весьма смутила журналистов. Весь день на груди у Гимбатова красовался орден Красной Звезды, учрежденный для награждения за большие заслуги в деле обороны СССР как в военное, так и в мирное время, в обеспечении государственной безопасности. Награда носится на правой стороне груди, а не на левой, как у депутата. Таким образом ее носили до лета 1943 года.

Для справки. Награждение орденом Красной Звезды производилось:
За личное мужество и отвагу в боях, отличную организацию и умелое руководство боевыми действиями, способствовавшими успеху советских войск;
За успешные боевые действия воинских частей и соединений, в результате которых противнику был нанесён значительный урон;
За заслуги в обеспечении государственной безопасности и неприкосновенности государственной границы СССР;
За мужество и отвагу, проявленные при исполнении воинского или служебного долга, в условиях, сопряжённых с риском для жизни;
За образцовое выполнение специальных заданий командования и другие подвиги, совершённые в условиях мирного времени;
За большие заслуги в поддержании высокой боевой готовности войск, отличные показатели в боевой и политической подготовке, овладении новой боевой техникой и другие заслуги в укреплении оборонной мощи СССР;
За заслуги в развитии военной науки и техники, подготовке кадров для Вооружённых Сил СССР;
За заслуги в укреплении обороноспособности государств социалистического содружества.

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>

Yeh Saali Aashiqui

Yeh Saali Aashiqui is the story of love gone wrong. Sahil Mehra (Vardhan Puri) falls head over heels in love with Mittee Deora (Shivaleeka Oberoi) when they first meet in their classroom. Their love story hits a roadblock when he sees her flirting with another boy in the class. But Sahil forgives her when she asks him to give her one chance. One day, Mittee is caught copying in the examination hall and she feels, Sahil is responsible for her being caught. Hell hath no fury like a woman caught copying. She decides to teach Sahil a lesson. She accuses him of trying to rape her. Sahil is arrested but instead of being sent to prison, he is sent to a mental asylum as it is revealed that he had killed his own father in a fit of fury some years ago and so he is assumed to be of unsound mind. Sahil pleads innocence and maintains in court that Mittee is playing games with him but the court does not heed his pleas. What happens thereafter? Is Sahil able to avenge his humiliation? Even as Sahil is in the mental asylum, Mittee hooks up with a rich boy, Anuj (Ruslaan Mumtaz). Also, Sahil’s past catches up with him. What is that? Does Mittee marry Sahil or Anuj?
