While she certainly needs a big break in some big banner film, right now the sultry siren Radhika Apte, who made the heads turn with her performance in Hunterrr and Badlapur recently, is looking for the much deserved break.
The actress is currently working on six-seven projects at a time (Tamil film Ula, Hindi films The Bright Day, Kaun Kitne Paani Mein, The Field, English venture Parched, Telugu film Lion and MTV International's untitled next)
It seems Radhika is quite worn-out with her hectic schedule and seeking for a break. She took a micro-blogging site to share about her state of mind. "I don't feel like working today .. And tomorrow .. And the day after .. I think I need a longer break," Radhika wrote.
Well, Radhika you indeed deserve a break!

It started with an infographic. Then more infographics. And some think pieces. And some brief TwitterRage. Over the last year and a half, women’s role in cinema, specifically Hollywood cinema, has become a lightning rod for discussion and debate, and more so than any time in the past, people are approaching film a little more critically in regards to how women are portrayed. The statistics are mind-numbingly bleak, with women representing a fraction of the work force behind the camera, from director to CEO to the best boy. Women in front of the camera rarely fair much better, with roles such as “beautiful and always understanding girlfriend/wife to the hilarious schlub” and “girl with cleavage that shoots guns in tight clothes”.

I n 2012–the year Indian cinema turned 100–it showed renewed vigour and youthfulness as if it were being reborn. A new generation of young and restless filmmakers, who caught attention of festival programmers worldwide, rewrote the rules of not only mainstream cinema but also challenged what Indians traditionally believed an “alternative film” or at times labeled as “art film” stood for.
We use the term ‘independent’ to denote the attitude rather than the economic mode of production. That’s why films that are backed by major studios and the government as well as films which have been funded in completely non-traditional ways co-exist in our list.
Any such list can’t claim to be authoritative and scientific; however, what we claim is that our listing isn’t arbitrary. We took into consideration factors such as selection at A-list festivals, popularity among festivals in general, awards, jury mentions, international reviews, international distribution and domestic release.

“Isn’t it unfortunate that you still don’t know where your heart lies?” says Shiv’s father to him. Shiv’s parents are worried about him. At twenty-three he is coddled and a little cocky, and totally aimless. But Shiv agrees with his father, so it’s perhaps not surprising that he sets off on what turns into a very personal and spiritual journey, a journey that shows the progress of his soul as he tries to figure out what his life means and what it is worth.
It’s a drastic step, and one that has consequences, both for Shiv (Sarang Sathaye), and for the family and friends he leaves behind, who miss him terribly and worry about him. But like the best of spiritual quests, the things we need are given and revealed only when we are ready for them. Along the way, Shiv meets people who change his life,...

Mohit Takalkar
Pune-based theatre director Mohit Takalkar’s debut feature The Bright Day will premiere today at the Toronto International Film Festival. Mohit tells us about his foray into filmmaking:
What is The Bright Day about?
The Bright Day speaks out the confusions and dilemmas that the young generation faces in the process of finding the path they want to tread. The film explores this journey through strong cinematic imagery. It is shot in different terrains of India – City, Desert, Banks of Ganges; thus depicting imagery and reflections of inner and outer world beautifully. The film also works on spiritual and experiential layers to deal with the complexity of mind. A film of chance encounters, shifting perspectives and unexpected insights, The Bright Day is an intensely personal cinematic experience that is also universal.
What was the starting point for the film?
The starting point for the film was my own life.

Mumbai has more movie-mad people than anywhere in the world: Cameron Bailey, Artistic Director, Tiff
From focusing on Mumbai in the festival’s ‘City to City’ programme to holding panel discussions on Bollywood and the Indian indies, Toronto International Film Festival will be a grand celebration of Indian cinema this year. From Ritwik Ghatak’s Meghe Dhaka Tara to Gauri Shinde’s English Vinglish, the festival promises something for everyone. Known for his fondness for Mumbai and Indian films, Tiff’s artistic director Cameron Bailey talks about the city, its emerging new-cinema as well as Bollywood:
What excites you about Mumbai as a city and the films that emerge out of it?
Mumbai has more movie-mad people than anywhere in the world. From the time I land at the airport to the time I leave, I encounter countless people who want to talk about their favourite films, their favourite stars and the gossip around both. People love movies in Mumbai, so on that level it feels like home.

Today the Toronto International Film Festival (Tiff) announced the much-anticipated line-up for the fourth edition of the City to City programme, a series designed as an “exploration of the urban experience, highlighting the best in emerging cinematic talent in a particular locale.” It’s been no secret that the spotlight this year would be placed squarely on Mumbai, as confirmed earlier this year by the festival’s Artistic Director, Cameron Bailey.
“Mumbai’s cinema today is entirely different from what it was even a few years ago. The rise of independent cinema has shifted the terrain, probing into previously taboo subjects and adopted styles that were earlier unpalatable to the Indian audience,” said Bailey. “Mumbai’s film industry is going through a significant change and a strong group of new filmmakers has emerged. They’re representing the evolution of their city in an interesting way. Toronto audiences are in for a treat this fall.
