Nathan Redmond: 'It's difficult to post a TikTok video if you've lost 1-0' | David Hytner

The Covid-19 lockdown has given the midfielder the chance to show his acting skills outside the Southampton changing room

Nathan Redmond hustles towards the camera, suited up, fedora jauntily perched and when he starts to lip-sync, the voice is that of Carter – the character played by Chris Tucker in Rush Hour 3. It is the scene involving him, Master Yu and Mi and, for those who have not seen it, has Carter getting into a word-play tangle as he questions Yu and Mi. “Who are you? Yu. No, not me, you. Yes, I am Yu.” It goes from there.

EU referendum two months on: the 10 steps that led to Brexit

As the dust settles, hindsight makes the chain of events that culminated in UK’s vote to leave easier to discern

It is two months since British voters surprised themselves by deciding to end the UK’s 43-year relationship with the European Union – “independence day” to some and “the worst political decision since 1945” to others.

As stunned political leaderships on both sides of the Channel continue dithering about what to do next, it is worth looking back at the origins of a crisis the EU elite had not expected.

The Brexit debate needs more tolerance on both sides | Michael White

Bad sportsmanship is not confined to either camp. Let’s have more signs of mutual respect across the divide

I’m trying to cure this summer’s unattractive impulse before it turns into a bad habit. Whenever I see someone doing something stupid or self-harming like jumping an orange light on a bike or getting tattooed from neck to ankle, I want to shout: “Brexit voter.”

It’s not nice and it’s not fair. I’m trying to stop. As Theresa May’s divided cabinet meets to decide where to go next, ministers and demoralised Whitehall officials should refrain from recrimination too. The “phoney war” lull before the negotiation storm is about to end.

Unemployment due to Covid-19 is surely worth more than a footnote | Larry Elliott

bruh moment extreme (update on myself ig)

okay i haven't posted on this site in w e e k s
i think. i don't remember how to tell time.

but like here's a story for you guys. so i drew the four killjoys in danger days (like party poison, kobra kid, etc) and it looked sick and i wanted to upload at least one of the drawings on here cuz i think i mentioned it on here but never like followed up?? and yeah here's why: it was friday or something two weeks ago and i literally fainted from dehydration on my way up the stairs to get water. the IRONY is enough to kill a man.

it only lasted a split second but i hit my head on the kitchen floor because, well, i collapsed. and that was the day i would've uploaded crap on here but i felt so incredibly sick after that i just forgot. and i have been watching television like a maniac during quarantine, like i watched four movies back to back yesterday and i've been watching four shows at once and it's insane, but i love movies and fictional characters more than people in real life and all i gotta say is you watch one star wars movie, you watch all of them. so currently, half my life is TV.

the other half is a mixure of various things. one, i'm tryna exercise more because i'm stuck in my house. i had fitness at school which was cool because we had a track field at weight room and had a lot of stuff to do, but i've been slacking because now i don't. however, last week my mom and i decided to work out together so it's been fun. running three days a week on the trail outside the house. it's pretty cool mostly cuz i've got no endurance and need to build that up. second, i've been writing/drawing a comic and a bunch of other things, outlining and coloring it and stuff, and that's really fun and also takes forever. and third, i've been playing bass and learning electric guitar. i picked up guitar super fast so i can already play a ton of songs but i wanna be able to SHRED because that's super cool. and you can always improve, so there's that. that takes a lot of time, too, because i mess around and come up with riffs and i look up and it's been two hours instead of ten minutes. so i've been really enjoying myself.

and last thing, it's MOTHER'S DAY. and i love my mom like more than anything. she's so iconic. like. i can't even begin to express. we cleaned the kitchen for her while she was in the shower and like. mm. idk seeing my mom happy hits different. anyway. that's basically what i've been up to. i think i'll upload one of my drawings. if not today, it'll come eventually. so yeah. peace.

From Farida Jalal to Kirron Kher, here are six of our favourite onscreen mothers in Bollywood

Mother’s have been an important part of Hindi cinema. Over the years, the portrayal of mothers in Bollywood has been changing. Mothers are given much more importance in cinema than just being a character actor who has to nod to everything the husband or the child says. 

On the occasion of Mother’s Day, here’s looking at some of the most popular on-screen mothers. 

Rakhee 

Her dialogue “Mere Karan Arjun aayenge'' is not something that one will forget anytime soon. She played mother to actors Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan in the hit film Karan Arjun. While Rakhee has played varied roles in her illustrious career spanning over 50 years, when it came to being a mother onscreen she has been seen as a woman of principles including in films like Baazigar, Ram Lakhan, Soldier, Khalnayak and others. 

Farida Jalal 

Farida Jalal too has been part of the industry for almost fifty years and continues to impress people with her charm. While the actress has played different kinds of roles, her motherly onscreen figure is the one most remembered by people. From being Shah Rukh Khan’s mother in Duplicate to Kajol’s in Dilwale Dulhania Le Jaayenge, she is the kind of mother who is always ready to make sacrifices for her child. She is also popular for the savage yet emotional grandmother of Jiya from the television series Shararat

Kirron Kher

She is often cast as the loud Punjabi mother with a soft heart always caring and worrying about her child. From Dostana, to Hum Tum to Singh is King to Om Shanti Om she was the mother who could also make you laugh with her snarky comments. While she started her career in film in 1983, most of her hit films including Main Hoon Na and Rang De Basanti see her play the role of a mother. 

Reema Lagoo

Best remembered for her role in Tu Tu Main Main, she has largely been seen in Bollywood films playing the emotional mother. She has played mother to most superstars in the late 80s and 90s. She was considered as a "new-age mother" in Hindi cinema. She was low on drama and was not too emotional either, perfectly maintaining the balance between the two. From Hum Saath Saath Hai to Hum Aapke Hai Kaun to Kal Ho Naa Ho, she is the kind of mother you just want to give a hug and say everything will be okay. 

 Jaya Bachchan 

How can an onscreen mother’s list be complete without Jaya Bachchan. She raised the bar for on-screen mothers with her performance in Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gham. The scene with Shah Rukh Khan’s entry in the film will be remembered for Jaya Bachchan’s sixth sense rather than the superstar’s entry. She then went on to ditch the saree and all the parampara and thali and was seen playing a bold single mother in Kal Ho Naa Ho

Ratna Pathak Shah

She will always be remembered dearly as Maya Sarabhai who could accept anything else but being middle class. When it comes to playing a mother in Bollywood, she has never been typecast and has shown variety in her characters. In Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na she was the protective and progressive mother to Imran Khan’s character who could not tolerate violence or any unjust activities. She once again played mother to Imran Khan in Ek Main Aur Ek Tu. She was a rich- sophisticated woman yet very different from her character Maya Sarabhai. Meanwhile, she played a middle-class mother to Taapsee Pannu in the film Thappad who worried more about “Log Kya Kahenge”.

Tomorrow X Together drops emotional teaser of 'Can't You See Me' track from The Dream Chapter: Eternity

The season of comebacks is here in the K-pop industry! Big Hit Entertainment's rookie group Tomorrow x Together is set for their second comeback this summer. The quartet will complete their trilogy with 'The Dream Chapter: Eternity'. 

The first teaser of their title track 'Can't You See Me' is here. More than one year after their debut, the boys are all grown up in this comeback. You hear them sing, "Can't you see me? / Like that magical day / Say believe me / Can't you see me?"

The five members are seen spending some good times together before everything falls apart. In the end, all of them stand outside a burning house as Soobin is seen screaming! It already looks like the MOAs are in for an emotional rollercoaster ride.

The concept trailer had similar emotions - a sense of losing your close friends over the course of time and lost feeling Soobin senses when he gets captured in the glass box.

The album is set to release on May 18, 2020. The group, which includes five members - Soobin, Yeonjun, Beomgyu, Taehyun, and Huening Kai, debuted on March 4, 2019, with the EP 'The Dream Chapter: Star' with lead single 'Crown'. This was followed by 'The Dream Chapter: Magic' with '9 and Three Quarters (Run Away)' as its lead single.

Not just that, they also made their Japanese debut on January 15, 2020, with the single 'Magic Hour'.

Music Review: PM Narendra Modi

<strong>EXPECTATIONS</strong> The film <em>PM Narendra Modi</em> is set for release this Friday and the soundtrack has been unveiled too. Given the fact that the film is a biopic, one expects patriotic flavour in this music of <em>PM Narendra Modi</em> which has multiple composers and lyricists collaborating to bring together half a dozen songs. <img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-968004" src="https://www.bollywoodhungama.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/PMNM.jpg" alt="" width="720" height="405" /> <strong>MUSIC</strong> Prasoon Joshi is the lyricist of the opening number <strong><em>'Saugandh Mujhe Iss Mitti Ki'</em></strong> that is composed by Shashi - Khushi and has Shashi Suman singing in a manner that is reminiscent of Sonu Nigam. He is joined by Sukhwinder Singh behind the mike and together they actually come up with a decent outing that reminds one of the kind of music that A.R. Rahman's <em>Lagaan</em> carried. <strong><em>'Namo Namo'</em></strong> has been a prominent slogan for last half a decade and that turns out to be the hook-line of the song. A rap number that is written and rendered by Parry G, this Hitesh Modak composed track is high on intensity and aims at being a power packed outing. Producer Sandip Ssingh too debuts as a singer with this theme song that has Lavaraj as the lyricist as well. Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy and Sameer's <strong><em>'Hindustani'</em></strong> was a huge hit when released back in time for Salman Khan and Sanjay Dutt's unreleased <em>Dus</em>. The song is presented in a new avtar with Parry G's rap kick-starting the proceedings and Sardaana writing added lyrics. This time around it is Shankar Mahadevan's son Siddharth Mahadevan who takes over the mantle and is joined by Shashi Suman as the singer. The overall impact is lacklustre though, as is the case with most of the recreations that are heard first. Shashi-Khushi and Sadaraa come together for <strong><em>'Fakeera'</em></strong> which turns out to be a rather dull outing. Very old fashioned and just not the kind of number that can be expected to make an impression amongst today's audiences, this Raja Hasan and Shashi Suman rendered track belongs to the quick-skip variety. The song which follows next turns out to be even duller, what with composer Hitesh Modak and lyricist Lavraj not really managing to entice any patriotic reactions. Based on Indian classical music, <strong><em>'Junoon'</em></strong> is sung by Javed Ali and though the singer does try, the ordinary tune and the arrangements that accompany it don't really help the cause. The soundtrack concludes with Suvarna Tiwari rendering <strong><em>'Ishwar Allah'</em></strong> which had featured in A.R. Rahman and Javed Akhtar's <em>1947 Earth</em>. Hitesh Modak recreates the song along with lyricist Lavraj and though the 'sur' is in synch with the mood of rest of the album, it doesn't quite entice you much to go for a repeat hearing. <strong>OVERALL</strong> Core situational and thematic. <strong>OUR PICK(S)</strong> <em>‘Saugandh Mujhe Iss Mitti Ki’</em>, <em>‘Namo Namo’</em>
