Malayalam superstar Prithviraj Sukumaran on Tuesday said the Hindi film industry post the 1990s has been pathbreaking in taking Indian cinema to the world, and regional language films will forever be indebted to it for showing the way.

Prithviraj, who has directed Malayalam cinema superstar Mohanlal in L2: Empuraan and also plays a prominent role in it, releasing this Thursday. Replying to a question on lessons that Hindi cinema, which is going through a dull phase, needed to learn from other industries, Prithviraj praised Bollywood and said every industry goes through different phases.

“There is a lot for everyone to learn from everywhere. I understand the conversation and praise around Malayalam cinema of late. But make no mistake it was not too long ago that we were sitting across tables in Kerala and thinking, ‘How is Hindi cinema doing this?’ “It was a time not too far back when maverick filmmakers like Anurag (Kashyap), Vikramaditya Motwane and Hansal Mehta burst onto the scene and started making content that made us think ‘wow’ .Yes, Malayalam cinema is going through a great phase, but these phases happen to every cinema periodically,” the actor-filmmaker said at a promotional event for Empuraan.

Prithviraj said he would not be surprised if, a couple of years later, people were once again praising films coming out of Bollywood. “But one thing that most aspirational about Hindi cinema post the 90s is how it has taken its cinema to the world. Hindi cinema has been absolutely pathbreaking in taking in taking Indian cinema to the world and in helping people around the world discover the content we create in this country. For all the regional languages, however much pan-Indian success we achieve, we will forever be indebted to Hindi cinema for having shown us the way,” he said.

Often, due to societal or family pressures, they do not receive the opportunity to nurture their abilities. He highlighted that the collaboration with the Government of India is focused on skill development to help young people discover and cultivate their potential. He advised the youth to first evaluate their interests before choosing a career path, as selecting a profession aligned with their passion will allow them to excel and succeed.

It is also important to note that the Indian Institute of Creative Skills (IICS), with support from the Government of India, is soon to be formally inaugurated. During this announcement, Ved Mani Tiwari, CEO of the National Skill Development Council (NSDC) and Managing Director of NSDC International (NSDCI), addressed the media, sharing that the institute’s mission is to uncover the inherent potential in every child across the country and present it to the world.

The highlight of the evening was the presence of celebrated choreographer-actor Ganesh Acharya, who graced the occasion alongside the young lead cast, Shushant Thamke and Jaanya Joshi. The event was filled with energy and excitement as the team interacted with the media, sharing their enthusiasm for the film, which is set for a grand theatrical release on March 21, 2025.

Ganesh Acharya at the event said, “While I was shooting for Pushpa 2: The Rule, director Shiv Hare approached me with the story of Pintu Ki Pappi. The moment I heard it, I found the concept incredibly unique and immediately agreed to be a part of it—on one condition: that my wife, Vidhi Acharya, would produce the film. As we developed the story further, we discovered that Shushant was the perfect fit for the role of Prashant, fondly called ‘Pintu,’ while Jaanya beautifully brought to life the character of Prerna, lovingly referred to as ‘Pappi.’ And that’s how we arrived at the title—Pintu Ki Pappi.”

These days, while the top banners of the industry are experimenting with something different in the film industry, there is no dearth of young makers who are trying to take cinema on a new positive path on their own. Now one more name has been added to this list, that of director Avinash Das, who came into the limelight with the film ‘Anarkali of Aara’, whose new film ‘In Galiyon Mein’ is in the news these days among a special class of audience and in social media. This film is a tribute by a son to his father, the famous writer Vasu Malviya. Vasu’s son Punarvasu has written the screenplay of this film and he has also written most of the songs of the film. I remember the sweetness of the songs of Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s hit film Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam, which is also present in the songs of this film. These songs make this film completely different from the common masala films of Mumbai. The opening tune of these songs has also been composed by Punarvasu. In my view, this film is a gift to the best Hindi literature.

Made under the banner of Yadunath Films, most of the shooting of this film has been done around Lucknow.

Story Plot

The story of the film revolves around three characters. This simple story of two narrow lanes, Ram and Rahim Gali, is a story of total brotherhood between Hindus and Muslims and the people of both the lanes playing Holi together on the day of Holi. In this lane, Hari Ram and Shabbo sell vegetables by putting up a hawker. Shabbo does not have parents, so Hari lives with his mother. In this lane, there is a tea and kebab shop of Mirza Sahib Javed Jafri, where all the people of Ram and Rahim Gali meet together. Mirza Sahib is a poet and gives the message of love to everyone. He sows the seeds of conflict and hatred among the people living in the lane. Netaji, who is contesting the MLA election from here, plans to show the match between India and Pakistan by installing a big screen in the lane so that he can cause a riot in Ram and Rahim Gali during the result of this match. Does this plan of Netaji succeed or not? No, come to ‘In Galiyon Mein’ to know this.

Overall

Javed Jafri, Ishtiaq Khan, Sushant Singh, Avantika Dasani, Vivan Shah, Rajiv Dhyani, Himanshu Bajpai are the main actors of this film but Javed Jafri is the backbone of the film, his excellent acting is top notch, if you are fond of great films, you like good songs and music and want to watch a film based on a story connected to the ground, then you must go to this lane, this film of less than two hours duration will keep you hooked from start to last seat, and not only UP but every state government should make this film tax free which gives the message of love between Hindus and Muslims in this Holi season.

3. Framing of Recruitment Regulations (RRs) for the post of Veterinary & Livestock Inspector
Due to necessity of posts in Veterinary Hospitals in NDMC and creation of the posts on regular basis, there is high demand to framing of Recruitment Regulations to fill up the post of regular basis for betterment of the Department and in the public interest.

Before 1994, the recruitment was made on the basis of Recruitment Rules approved by the Administrator which never notified in Official Gazette. Thereafter non-availability of notified Recruitment Rules, the post could not be filled up on regular basis.

Hence the Recruitment Rules have been framed in accordance with the extant instructions of the Departmental of Personnel & Training (DoP&T) while taking reference from the RRs of similar posts on the basis of other Government Organizations and with the Consultation of Advisor (Personnel). The Council approved the proposal for framing/amendment of RRs.
