india Music Review: Why Cheat India By Published On :: Mon, 14 Jan 2019 05:06:28 GMT <strong>EXPECTATIONS</strong> Music of an Emraan Hashmi has to be special. However, since <em>Why Cheat India</em> is more of a concept based film that deals with education nexus, one doesn't really have much of an idea around what to expect from the entire soundtrack. Multiple composers, lyricists and singers come together to create half a dozen songs for <em>Why Cheat India</em>. <img class="aligncenter wp-image-941751 size-full" title="Music Review: Why Cheat India" src="https://www.bollywoodhungama.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Music-review-–-Why-Cheat-India.jpg" alt="Music Review: Why Cheat India" width="720" height="405" /> <strong>MUSIC</strong> There is a surprise in store right at the beginning though with a Punjabi club number kick-starting the proceedings. This isn't something that one expected from <em>Why Cheat India</em> and hence a rollicking start like this is much welcome. An all-around Guru Randhawa show in terms of composition, lyrics and rendition, <strong><em>'Daaru Wargi'</em></strong> is a fun number that should find itself as a hot favourite amongst the DJs at the clubs and the dance floors. Chartbuster material. Punjabi mood continues in <em>Why Cheat India</em> with newcomer singer Prabhjee Kaur giving a good account of herself in her major Bollywood outing. A celebration number that is well composed by Krsna Solo, <strong><em>'Stupid Saiyaan'</em></strong> is as 'desi' as it comes and gets your foot tapping right away. Lyricist Kumaar delivers once again with this catchy number that should find good traction. Finally arrives a theme song in the form of <strong><em>'Kaamyaab'</em></strong>. An Agnee composition that has been put to words by Juhi Saklani, this one is a complete departure from what one had heard so far. Coming across as a non-film number, it is sung by Mohan Kannan who narrates the tale of a student who has to do well in life while taking the route of right education. Bappi Lahiri's chartbuster composition <em>'Dil Mein Ho Tum'</em> [<em>Satyameva Jayate</em>] is recreated by Rochak Kohli and he does a really good job with lyricist Manoj Muntashir who adds on to original words of Farooq Qaiser. A soothing number that makes the transition from 80s to the current times rather seamlessly, it is sung quite well by Armaan Malik who makes sure that the current generation would be enticed too with this romantic outing. It's the sound of the harmonium that kick-starts the proceedings for <strong><em>'Phir Mulaqat'</em></strong>. A love song which doesn't quite come across as a 'ghazal' outing that it is supposed to depict, this one could well have made an even better impression had it been picturised as a quintessential Emraan Hashmi number. Instead, a solo stage setting visually dilutes the impact that this Kunaal-Rangon composed number could have created. Kunaal writes the lyrics too and first Jubin Nautiyal and later a female singer who goes by the name RII. In fact she does even better. Last to arrive is Juhi Saklani written <strong><em>'Taiyaari'</em></strong> which is sung and composed by director Soumik Sen himself. This one in fact turns out to be a rather boring outing and comes across as a dull piece. It tries to narrate the plight of students who are studying hard to clear their entrance exams. However, it depresses more instead of making you really feel engaged with the kids. <strong>OVERALL</strong> Barring a couple of songs, the music of <em>Why Cheat India</em> works with a couple of these promising to be chartbusters as well. If the film does well at the Box Office, one can well expect the music to grow further as well. <strong>OUR PICK(S)</strong> <em>‘Daaru Wargi’</em>, <em>‘Dil Mein Ho Tum’</em>, <em>‘Phir Mulaqat’</em> (female version), <em>‘Stupid Saiyaan’</em> Full Article

india US and India: The Best is (Still) Yet to Come By feedproxy.google.com Published On :: Tue, 27 Jan 2015 10:18:50 +0000 27 January 2015 Xenia Wickett @xeniawickett LinkedIn Former Head, US and the Americas Programme; Former Dean, The Queen Elizabeth II Academy for Leadership in International Affairs The US-India relationship is full of potential, but until there is a sustained commitment from the countries’ leaders, it will remain largely unrealized. 20150127ObamaModi.jpg Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and US President Barack Obama leave after speaking during the India-US Business Summit in New Delhi on 26 January 2015. Photo by Getty Images. On 26 January, President Barack Obama joined Prime Minister Narendra Modi as his guest at India’s Republic Day, in a reflection of the huge potential in the US-India relationship. The trip makes Obama the first US president to visit India twice while in office, and comes on the heels of Modi’s visit to Washington last autumn. Nevertheless, the heavily touted ‘transformation’ in bilateral affairs that these summits are supposed to herald is unlikely to materialize soon. Continued, active and deliberate effort by the two leaders could allow the relationship to jump forward, but given competing priorities, this moment seems destined to pass without the major advances many believe are possible.Since the 2005 breakthrough nuclear deal which brought India into the non-proliferation tent, the opportunities in the bilateral relationship have been loudly extolled. Notably, the countries lack historical closeness − during the Cold War, India led the Non-Aligned Movement but leaned towards the Soviet Union. This means that there is ample opportunity to progress in a number of key areas – but also is indicative of the challenges.DemocracyIt is often said that India is the largest democracy and the United States the oldest. President George W. Bush saw India as a valuable partner in promoting democracy around the region and the world. India’s loud, raucous political system should be a good example of a vibrant democracy. However, India, like China, holds strongly to the primacy of sovereignty and as such has no wish to lead others to build new political systems or to impose them.Economics and tradeIndia has a middle class that is, by some counts, larger than the entire US population. However, India’s regulatory system is complex, and its legal architecture slow and unpredictable. After recent Indian decisions such as the 2012 case where retroactive taxes were imposed on Vodafone, American businesses have been extremely wary. Tensions at a governmental level were also raised in America after India collapsed the WTO negotiations last July.SecurityMajor strides have been taken in military cooperation, and there is space for more. During Obama’s visit, the two leaders revitalized their Defence Framework, building on a 2005 agreement and subsequent progress led by then-US deputy secretary of defense Ash Carter. Carter’s likely confirmation as secretary of defense in the coming weeks is probably the brightest spot for the future bilateral agenda. But Indian acquisition processes do not align well with their American equivalents. And the US is resistant to providing blueprints to technology, which the Indians want, preferring to build at home and sell the equipment on. These misalignments make progress in this area difficult.GeopoliticsIndia wants to be considered a regional and global power, and America would dearly like to have India onside, particularly in light of China’s occasional muscle flexing. However, as illustrated by its uncritical stance towards Russia’s annexation of Crimea and its abstention from the 2011 UN Security Council resolution authorizing military action in Libya, India’s view on sovereignty and its historical non-aligned positioning mean that it too often fails to back up the US on divisive issues.EnvironmentThe environmental debates between India (as a representative of the developing world) and the US (representing the developed) have often been acrimonious, as the two sides take opposing views on where the principal responsibility lies in ensuring growth while limiting the environmental fallout. There are however opportunities in this arena to advance together through technology cooperation. India is the third-largest emitter of greenhouse gases (behind China and the US) and has significant and growing energy demands as it works to bring its people out of poverty. If the US and India could find a compromise similar to the recent agreement between the US and China, the impact could be significant both in environmental terms and in the demonstration effect to others.Unrealized potentialMost of these issues are central to President Obama’s legacy and integral to Modi’s goals of restoring growth to India and putting it at the centre of global geopolitics. They should dovetail well with both leaders’ agendas. But in each case, the challenges, including the institutional bureaucracies, are preventing real breakthroughs.If this bilateral relationship is to be transformed, Obama and Modi need to not just push their systems, but exert sustained pressure on them to overcome the long-standing obstacles. Unfortunately, given other agendas and historical legacies of distrust, such ongoing attention is unlikely. More likely, the relationship will continue to move ahead, but the huge potential will for now remain unrealized.To comment on this article, please contact Chatham House Feedback Full Article
india India Under Modi: A Superpower in the Making?

Christine Lagarde, the managing director of the International Monetary Fund (IMF), has referred to India as a ‘bright spot’ in the slowing global economy. According to them, growth equalled China’s last year at 7.3% and has now taken the lead as the world’s fastest growing economy. Yet some joke that India’s prospects look brighter the farther away you are.The panel will reflect on Modi’s two years in power and discuss what they think the government got wrong and what they got right. They will question whether India’s resurgence can be sustained into the future, and discuss what this actually means for the prospects of India’s 1.3 billion people, as well as the balance of power in Asia and beyond.This event is organized in association with the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy at the National University of Singapore.

india Review article: Understanding change and continuity in India’s foreign policy By feedproxy.google.com Published On :: Fri, 06 Jan 2017 10:22:18 +0000 6 January 2017 , Volume 93, Number 1 Aseema Sinha The field of Indian foreign policy is rich and wide ranging, offering new empirical material across a broad array of topics and relationships. This article reviews three recent books on the subject, with an eye towards evaluating change amid continuity in the pursuit of Indian foreign policy. This scholarship calls out for a new paradigm to understand India’s changing position and actions at global, regional and domestic levels. I argue that Indian foreign policy can and should be seen through the prism of an open border, interdependence framework, wherein both the domestic and global levels are analysed in a linked manner. While the literature surveyed here does not yet offer a new paradigm, some common findings suggest the need for new approaches. We also need to find and use new sources of data and seek ways to measure institutional effects in foreign policy. The task of measurement and theoretical modelling is made more challenging by the need to theorize the linkages across levels and to measure foreign policy variables in different countries simultaneously.
