Bollywood comes to town
Life, Parisa Pichitmarn, Published on 17/08/2016
» Want to try watching an Indian movie but don't quite know where to start? Now's your chance with the Indian Film Festival of Thailand, where you can relive Bollywood's biggest blockbusters for 150 baht per movie, as opposed to the 350 baht that the tickets usually cost on regular release. 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. Prangthong Jitcharoenkul, author of India Mee Arai Ja Bok, will also be sharing her experiences while studying in India.

Sexy, strong and superhuman
Life, Parisa Pichitmarn, Published on 27/08/2014
» Some thick people we know may give off the impression that they are using only 10% of their brains. It may be a long-time hoax and also the biggest controversy surrounding Luc Besson’s latest film, Lucy, but nevertheless, it serves as the main road map that drives the picture. Lucy, which hits Thai cinemas tomorrow, stars a strangely unprovocative Scarlett Johansson as the unapologetically invincible heroine.

Hey, tat's nice
Life, Parisa Pichitmarn, Published on 21/08/2014
» It's no surprise that the yakuza and all the culture that comes with them are the main inspiration for flamboyant fashion brand Anchavika. Those familiar with the local brand are more than likely aware that Anchavika is in no way a discreet luxury, with its trademark loud embroidery motifs and borderline over-the-top materials that bombard onlookers with an equal sense of admiration and bewilderment.

Thailand's sweetheart
Muse, Parisa Pichitmarn, Published on 15/03/2014
» With the sort of background she has, it’s hardly a question why Pimdao “Mutmee” Panichsamai is Generation Y’s most prominent nation-loving poster girl. As the young adult incarnation of all things Thai, be it a nickname, looks, mannerisms or musical abilities, Pimdao is the darling hand-chosen by entertainment doyens, admired by those that surround her and the kind of loving daughter and sister households wished they had.
