17 Sep 2023

He also waved towards the camera.Indian speedster Mohammed Siraj tore apart Sri Lanka's batting line-up with a dream spell to end the first innings in 15.2 overs in the Asia Cup 2023 final.Mohammed Siraj lived up to his nickname of 'Miyan Magic' by producing a spell that will be remembered for many years to come.Siraj ran riots in the powerplay with his menacing pace dismantling the entire Sri Lankan batting set-up inside the powerplay. Jasprit Bumrah set the tone of the game by making his impact on the third ball of his first over. Kusal Perera pitches it in the middle and swings it away from the batter to find an edge which went straight into the hands of KL Rahul. Siraj followed it up with a maiden over to lay the perfect platform for a spell that left the entire stadium awe-struck. On the first ball of his second over, Siraj sent back Pathum Nissanka for 2. The second ball clicked 143 kmph and Samarawickrama decided to play it safe. The third delivery however swung sharply back into the right-handed batter pinned his legs right in front of the stumps and sent him back for a two-ball duck.Sri Lanka's match-winner against Pakistan, Charith Asalanka stepped in to keep Sri Lanka's innings from falling apart. Siraj baited him and lured him to play the drive shot, Asalanka took the bait and committed to his shot, he went a bit early and sent the ball straight to Ishan Kishan at covers. With hat-trick on his mind, he once again tried to go for the inswinging delivery to the newcomer Dhananjaya de Silva. A gentle push on the vacant side of the field sent the ball for a four. Siraj came back on the next delivery, found a faint edge and carried comfortably in the gloves of Rahul. Siraj completed an over which had four wickets, a moment which comes once in a blue moon in the ODI format. However, he wasn't done yet, nor was his 'Sui' celebration. He shattered the stumps by completely beating skipper Dausn Shanaka and sending him for a duck. This was the first time India took six wickets in the first 10 overs in an ODI match.Bumrah went out of the attack and Hardik Pandya came in to take his place alongside the fire-breathing Siraj. Sri Lanka managed to reach the 50-run mark in 14.1 overs. Pandya struck once again sending Pramod Madushan back for 1(6), he followed up on the next ball to send Matheesha Pathirana back for a golden duck and end Sri Lanka's innings in 15.2 overs leaving Sri Lanka thinking if their decision to bat first was right.Now, India is ready on the pitch to bat.

Prabhu Dheva, Ekta Kapoor team up for a film

4 Dec 2013

A successful actor, choreographer and now a director, Prabhu Dheva is eagerly awaiting the release of his next masala entertainer R... Rajkumar starring Shahid Kapoor and Sonakshi Sinha. And now, the director will be teaming up with Balaji Motion Pictures for a film.

Though the director has given his commitment to Ekta Kapoor, a script for the same is yet to be finalized. Also, the casting and other details are still being worked out. Tanuj Garg from Balaji Motion Pictures confirmed the story and the film is tentatively slated to go on floor in 2014.

Prabhu Dheva opts for Ajay over Akshay

6 May 2013

It was meant to be a grand reunion of the Rowdy Rathore club. Akshay Kumar, producer Sanjay Leela Bhansali and his partner Shabina Khan, and director Prabhu Dheva for the Hindi remake of the 2002 Tamil blockbuster Ramana . Sadly Prabhudheva had to opt out due to prior commitment leaving the Rowdy team with no choice but to get another director.

Says a source, "While shooting Rowdy Rathore the team had decided to reunite for another Tamil remake.

Ramana rights had been purchased by Sanjay Bhansali. And Prabhu was on board in principle. But then after Rowdy Rathore , he got exceedingly busy as a director with Ramaiya Vastavaiya , the film launching newcomer Girish Taurani followed by Rambo Rajkumar . After that Prabhu immediately goes into his film with Ajay Devgn." In fact the choice was between directing Akshay Kumar in the Ramana remake and Devgn in an untitled original film. However, Prabhu preferred to work with another actor. Also he has decided not to direct remakes of South Indian films.

Says Prabhu sorrowfully, "They asked me to do this film. I'd have loved to. It would have been a new experience for me. So far I've only directed out-and-out entertainers.

Ramana has strong social message. I'm at the moment completing Ramaiya Vastavaiya and Rambo Rajkumar . Both original scripts. In July, I start my film with Ajay Devgn and that too is an original script. Moreover isn't it good to work with new actors and a new team constantly? Repetition makes you stagnant." We hear Devgn has made it very clear that he wants Prabhu Dheva to do a full-on action entertainer. "My films also serve a social purpose. They're designed to be stress-busters. They make audiences forget their worries. Ajay Devgn's film too is a complete masala script, guaranteed to make everybody forget their worries," promises Prabhu Dheva.
