Son of Shashidhar Mukherjee, the famous Bollywood film producer of the 1950s, Shomu produced and directed films like Chaliya Babu, Patthar Ke Insaan, Lover Boy and Nanha Shikhari in the 1980s. He was also one of the owners of the famous Filmalya studio. The last film that he directed was Sangdhil Sanam in 1994.
The funeral will take place at Mumbai’s Santa Cruz crematorium at 2 pm, sources said.
Mukherji passed away on the eve of his son-in-law Ajay Devgan’s directorial debut U Me Aur Hum, casting a pall of gloom in the family.
Family sources said, the film, however, will be released as per the schedule.
Paris- The Olympics torch is alleged to have been put out by authorities due to the threat by Tibetans and those supporting the cause of Tibetans.
From a neutral point of view, I personally feel that the Chinese have been very cruel to the people of Tibet. I seriously do not see why the authorities dont see how the world sees it? Rather than taking a monopolist approach to make the decisions to this cause.
What China is doing is only cruelty and other countries like India, though trying to take a neutral stand, have to be biased to the Chinese side to avoid further political problems between them.
India seems to have enough problems already.
