  From the Big Apple to the Big Mango

  » It's all been there done that on the Cannes Lion advertising award circuit for Kantapon Metheekul. The young creative executive has won many awards, been featured in several publications and has illustrated for a handful of high street and luxury fashion brands -- but that's not his true calling. As someone who loved to draw since he was five, it was only natural that Kantapon's veins throbbed to become a full-time artist -- to draw his own creations and not what others briefed him to. After three years of working for advertising agencies, he packed his bags and headed to New York to become an artist.

  A tribute to unsung heroes

  » Yes. Finally an Akshay Kumar movie that you really cannot afford to miss. Loosely based on a true story almost lost in the sands of time that went by largely unreported, Airlift brings to life that believable kind of heroism only classics like Schindler's List have artfully managed to depict. Regardless of how true to historical details the movie is, its story of Indian refugees trapped in Kuwait after Saddam Hussein's troops attacked the country in 1990 packs an unforgettable punch.
