JP Dutta takes a break from war films

Mere the mention of renowned Bollywood filmmaker JP Dutta pops up in our head the images of his popular war movies such as Border (1997), LOC Kargil (2003) and more recently Paltan (2018). His 1997 film Border, starring an ensemble cast, is considered as one of the finest war movies ever made in Hindi cinema.

After sticking to the genre of war movies for close to two decades, the celebrated filmmaker has now decided to take a break from such films and focus on some other popular genres.


We hear that Dutta has already begun work on his next film which will not be a war movie. The director is presently writing a script for his next directorial. Some media outlets report that he has spent around eight days in Jodhpur, along with his team to work on the forthcoming venture.

If things fall into place, Dutta will roll the camera for his next untitled film by mid-2019. As of now, there is no information on the star cast of the project.

Bonnie Greer, playwright who never lost her edge, dies at 77

Bonnie Greer left Chicago's South Side wanting to be a lawyer, until a professor told her outright that he didn't think women belonged in law. She switched to theatre instead, studied under David Mamet in Chicago and Elia Kazan at New York's Actors Studio, and by the late 1970s was living in Manhattan's West Village. Then AIDS started taking her friends, one after another, and by 1986 she'd had enough. A production brought her to the Edinburgh Festival that year. She stayed in Britain for good, telling the Sunday Times two decades later that the move had saved her life — she needed, in her words, to "escape the shadow of death."

That's the Bonnie Greer most obituaries will lead with: American, Black, an outsider who came to Britain running from something. What's stranger, and more interesting, is what she became once she got here.
