Paa inspired by the Greeks

Progeria derives from a Greek word meaning premature ageing.

Bollywood shuns Australian racism and rightly so

Even while the Australian government is saying it’s not racism but straightout threat by junkies who will do anything for money to finance their nefarious needs, the first alarm in Bollywood was sounded when Amitabh Bachchan refused an honour bestowed by an Australian body. And now, all the filmmakers in B town have not only
