Perhaps better retitled the Deepika Padukone Film Festival of Thailand (she's in three of the seven films showing), some of the most popular movies from India's Tinseltown within the past three years will be showing at Paragon Cineplex from Aug 22-28. In this event hosted by MVP Entertainment, Zee Entertainment and Paragon Cineplex, the festival's opening will also see flash mob dances and interviews with Thai stuntmen who have worked in Bollywood.

Flash mob Shock!
Life, Onsiri Pravattiyagul, Published on 24/07/2013
» In olden days, classical musicians were the equivalent of modern-day pop stars _ even rock stars, in certain cases. Time seems to have added a patina of majesty and "high-mindedness" to the genre, though, and a contemporary version of a luminary like Mozart might prove far too much to swallow for the many who associate classical musicians with tuxedoes, austere expressions and cut-throat competitiveness.
