Aishwarya Rai is the ‘hero’ of Raavan

It’s one of the most awaited films of the year, and our readers are already aware that the stars of the film have gone through very tough situations during the filming of Raavan. In fact, Aishwarya Rai recently revealed in Cannes how grueling and physically demanding shooting for Raavan was. No wonder that according to the two Raavans of the film it is Ash who is the real ‘hero’.

Well it’s understood that Abhishek Bachchan, besotted by his beautiful wife, can say something like this; but south superstar Vikram too is of the same opinion.

As we’ve learnt, right from the start Junior B and Vikram called Ash the hero of the film, as she was doubling up for both the Hindi and Tamil versions and thus had maximum number of physically strenuous sequences amidst the rugged hills, swampy forests, and muddy rivers.

The lady did it all with full gusto. Literally, she is a ‘hero’ that way!

Kia Brings Back the Hamsters for New Soul Ad Campaign

PRESS RELEASE: KIA MOTORS AMERICA BREAKS NEW SOUL AD CAMPAIGN AND BRINGS BACK HAMSTERS BY POPULAR DEMAND

Game-Changing Kia Halo Vehicle Still Stands Apart From Competition

* 2010 Soul urban passenger vehicle rolls in clever, hip hop style spot

* Pop culture Hamsters compare Soul’s style and creature comforts to other boxy rides

IRVINE, Calif., May 26, 2010 – Kia Motors America (KMA) today officially released a new advertising campaign, titled "This or That," for the 2010 Kia Soul. "This or That" is the rebirth of the initial Kia Soul award winning advertising campaign created by David&Goliath, KMA’s advertising agency of record, and brings back the loveable Hamsters due to popular demand. Soul is a unique and highly personalizable urban passenger vehicle and the new spot builds on its creative theme in the style of a music video set to the classic hip hop track "The Choice is Yours" by notable 90’s hip hop group Black Sheep. The new campaign launches today on cable TV networks Comedy Central, Fuse, MTV, MTV2 and Spike and runs through July. Beginning May 28 it will appear in movie theaters across the country as well as have a presence online at Pandora, Facebook, Social Vibe’s PetVille, KMA’s Kia.com. and a YouTube contest.

"Given the success and popularity of the hamsters in the initial Soul launch with a spot that won Nielsen’s Automotive Ad of the Year, it made sense to bring them back for a new campaign," said Michael Sprague, vice president, marketing of KMA. "We know the Soul target audience is digitally savvy and that they viewed the first commercial multiple times online, so the newest experience is rich with details in the hamster world and integrated Soul content for them to discover during repeat viewings."

"Hamstar™" logoed clothing, as seen in the spot, will soon be available for purchase by fans at www.hamstarclothing.com (check soon for details).

Cruising through an urban landscape behind the wheel of an Alien Green Kia Soul, the hamsters in "This or That" cleverly compare Soul’s unique styling and plethora of personalizable creature comforts to other boxy rides – represented by toasters, washing machines and cardboard boxes – while rapping the title song’s lyrics, "You can get with this, or you can get with that."

A recipient of "Best Family Cars for 2010" by Edmunds.com and Parents Magazine, "Best Hatchback of 2010" by Cars.com, "2010 Top Cars for Families" by Motherproof.com, and 2010 "Top 10 Coolest New Cars Under $18,000" from Kelley Blue Book’s kbb.com, Soul is available in four trims, Soul, Soul+, Soul! (exclaim) and Soul sport, as well as four special editions, including the recently unveiled special-edition Ghost Soul. Other special-edition Soul vehicles include Ignition Soul, Denim Soul and Shadow Dragon Soul. Pricing for the versatile five-door begins under $14,000.

Soul stands out from the crowd with modern, unique styling aimed toward the young and young-at-heart and offers a unique combination of style, value and personalization options. An available Audio Upgrade Package includes speaker lights that can pulse to the beat of the music or add mood lighting to the interior cabin, enhancing the overall personal lounge feeling. The Soul+ offers funky black cloth seats with "glowing" Soul logo inserts while the Soul! trim comes with a distinctive sand-black interior with houndstooth-patterned inserts, and the Soul sport presents a bold red-black interior trim with red-trimmed cloth seats and metal-finish interior accents.

Hyundai launches i45 "Driven by obsession" campaign in Australia

Hyundai Motor Company Australia has launched a campaign for its new mid-sized sedan i45, with its ads featuring water droplet technology that creates shapes from cascading water.

The TV ad shows individual water droplets falling and creating shapes as they hit the car. One of the key images is a massive sword being “thrust” into the i45.
The “Driven by Obsession” campaign, created by Innocean Worldwide in partnership with Disciple, includes television, cinema, print, online, point of sale and outdoor.

Tim Brown, Disciple creative partner, said: “We’d seen graphic waterfalls technology at trade shows and felt that using it was a beautiful and captivating way to tell our story.”

Innocean took over the car maker’s creative account in April last year.

According to the Federal Chamber of Automotive Industries April 2010 VFACTS report, Hyundai’s vehicle sales in the year to the end of April rose 65.4 per cent, compared the same 2009 YTD period.

This was compared to the overall car market which was up 20.3 per cent during that same period.

Gorkha League chief Madan Tamang killed, Darjeeling tense

By IANS - Friday, May 21st, 2010 12:20 pm

Darjeeling, May 21 (IANS) Gorkha leader Madan Tamang, president of the Akhil Bharatiya Gorkha League (ABGL), was Friday stabbed to death allegedly by Gorkha Janamukti Morcha (GJM) supporters in this West Bengal town, police said. News of the death led to a spontaneous shutdown in the region.

Tamang, who led the anti-GJM front in the Darjeeling hills, was hit with a kukri (long knife used by Nepalis) at around 9.30 a.m., an official said.

“He was critically injured in the attack and died in the Darjeeling District Hospital,” Darjeeling police station inspector-in-charge Indrajit Thapa told IANS.

State Municipal Affairs Minister Ashok Bhattacharya said in Kolkata that GJM supporters had carried out the attack on Tamang.

“The GJM’s goons have committed the murder. GJM is a fascist party, which does not want any opposition in the hills. They are opposed to a democratic atmosphere prevailing in the hills,” he said.

“We are deeply concerned. The hills are very tense,” said Bhattacharya, who hails from Siliguri in Darjeeling district.

As news of Tamang’s killing spread, a spontaneous shutdown began in the three Darjeeling hill sub-divisions of Darjeeling, Kalimpong and Kurseong.

Vehicles in Darjeeling went off the roads, while shops and markets were closed.

Kites Review – “Hrithik Roshan and Bárbara Mori’s romance doesn’t help Kites fly”

Starring Hrithik Roshan and Bárbara Mori. In Hindi, English, and Spanish with English subtitles. Rating not available.

There has been much hype around Kites for its international crossover potential and for the reported sizzling chemistry between Bollywood heartthrob Hrithik Roshan and Mexican beauty Bárbara Mori. At the core of this film is a love story meant to bridge not only two cultures, but also the audiences of two film industries—and that love story just does not have enough oomph to make this film fly.

Watch the trailer for Kites.

Jay (Roshan) is a petty Las Vegas huckster who marries illegal immigrants for extra cash. The film begins with him shot and left for dead in Mexico. As he heals and makes his way back to Sin City, we learn of his love affair with Natasha (Mori), the fiancée of his wealthy girlfriend’s brother.

The difficulty in their relationship, aside from not having a common language, is that they are both marrying into a family of mobsters that rules Vegas. This is, apparently, an alternate Vegas, where the mobsters are all Indian and the police officers make fleeting appearances only when the mobsters have need of them.


Director Anurag Basu, whose last film was the edgy and very cosmopolitan Life in a Metro, has pulled together all the right elements: big budgets, high production values, stunning locales, the expected amount of dizzying stunts, car chases and things that blow up, and, of course, pretty people falling in love. And yet instead of being moved by the story, I was thinking more about the many illogical plot points in the film.

The dialogue of this film is a mixture of Hindi, English, and Spanish. And, as is more common in Bollywood, it melds multiple genres

2010 Hyundai Genesis Receives IIHS 'Top Safety Pick'

The 2010 Hyundai Genesis Sedan has recently been tested and awarded the ‘Top Safety Pick’ by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS). This award is earned by all vehicles who manage to achieve the institute’s top rating of “Good” for front, side, rollover and rear crash protection. A vehicle cannot achieve the ‘Top Safety Pick’ if it hasn’t got Electronic Stability Control (ESC) as standard.

The South Korean car company earned the ‘Top Safety Pick’ with the 2009 Hyundai Genesis Sedan as well, but this year the standards were raised even higher and a roof strength test was added to the procedures.

The new guidelines require the roof to withstand more than two times the strength of current federal requirements in order to properly maintain the vehicle’s integrity in a rollover accident. And Hyundai made the adjustments to the Genesis roof structure to improve protection.

"Genesis was designed to be one of the safest vehicles on the road and includes features such as ESC and Hyundai's first electronic active front head restraint system, which helps prevent whiplash," said Derek Joyce, manager of product planning, Hyundai Motor America.

Hyundai Moving Santa Fe Production to Kia West Point Plant

Hyundai Motor Co. is considering shifting some production from its factory in Alabama to a recently opened plant run by sister company Kia, Hyundai spokesman Robert Burns said.

Moving some production from Hyundai's Montgomery, Ala., plant to Kia Motor Co.'s West Point, Ga., facility could be a way to maximize the efficiency of both plants, Burns said.

Any final decision would come from the South Korean headquarters of Hyundai, which owns Kia, he said.

"They're evaluating options to make sure we fully utilize the capacity of U.S. production," Burns said.

Hyundai's Montgomery plant currently builds the Sonata sedan and the Santa Fe SUV. Kia's plant in West Point, which began production late last year, builds just the Sorento SUV.

Sales of both companies have risen sharply in the U.S. in the last year. Hyundai sales are up 20 percent year to date, while Kia sales have climbed 13 percent, according to Autodata Corp.

News of the possible shift was first reported by the trade publication Automotive News.

Busan: Hyundai Unveils All-New Avante (Elantra)

Hyundai has unveiled the 2011 Elantra (known as the Avante in South Korea) at the Busan Motor Show in its home country. This is the fifth generation of the popular compact car, Hyundai’s best-selling model worldwide, with over 6 million units sold since 1990.

Completely redesigned, the Elantra uses design cues from the new Accent, unveiled this month at the Auto China 2010 in Beijing, but also from the new Sonata. The new Elantra wears a "fluidic sculpture" design with four-door coupe styling, High Intensity Discharge headlights (HID) and LED taillights.

Interior pictures are yet to be released, but Hyundai says in the press release that the cabin offers "advanced features not found on other compacts." Equipment includes heated rear seats, ambient lighting, and a color TFT LCD information display.

Under the hood, the Elantra is powered by a 1.6-liter Gamma GDI (Gasoline Direct Injection) four-cylinder engine, developing 140 horsepower and 133 lb-ft of torque (167 Nm). The unit is paired with a six-speed automatic transmission. It’s the first time GDI technology and six-speed automatic are put together on a compact sedan in Korea. The direct injection and the automatic gearbox make the Elantra “10 percent more fuel efficient than its closest competitors,” according to Hyundai.
