Cool CoorgA light and intermittent rain started on the second day of our arrival. Even through rains, clear rays of peeping sun among flitting clouds created a mistily magical ambiance in this uncluttered hill station.

From the naive-small-town-girl to an aspiring-model to an arrogant-supermodel, she has done justice to the character of Meghana Mathur. The movie is like other 'relaistic' Bhandarkar movies where the truth and tragedy behi Continue reading
