One of the most difficult aspects of being a working <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=mother&amp;sortorder=effectivedate">mother </a>is finding a balance between work and life. 
 
It gets even more frustrating when you don’t have a 9-5 job, but a business of your own that you need to monitor 24/7 while at the same time ensuring you are there for your kids whenever you need them (which can be all the time). 
 
So, the question we invariably end up asking is- how do these supermoms do it? 
 
On the occasion of <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=mother%27s+day&amp;sortorder=effectivedate">Mother’s Day</a>, Business Insider asked this very secret to three <keyword id="27779" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="working-moms">working moms</keyword> who also have start-ups of their own. 
Here’s what they had to say- 
 
 
Pranjali Indrayan, Co-founder &amp; Travel Designer, <keyword id="3353752" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="Tripoetic">Tripoetic</keyword> 
 
(Tripoetic is a travel-startup started by Pranjali and her husband where they both take on the responsibility for planning your entire trip. Right from deciding the itinerary to booking your hotels, tickets.) 
 
 
 
 “I am not sure if this is a difficult path. It is easier than having a job because I can control the work-life balance. On top of it, we are doing something we love to do, which is very fulfilling. It does get challenging at times but then no one ever said that <keyword id="107737" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="100" keywordseo="Entrepreneurship">entrepreneurship</keyword> is easy. 
 
The decision of starting Tripoetic with my husband was a planned one. It feels great that I can spend time with my 3 year old daughter and have a partner (my husband) who supports me in every way while I help him in running the travel business. We are always around each other, so decision making for Tripoetic and the home is not a problem. And since we are in it together it makes my life as a mother a little easy. 
 
However there are tough times too. When the work pressure is too much, I feel my daughter does not get enough attention. But even when I am working and she walks into the room with her smiling face asking me to play with her, I can never say no. ”

“Makeup has always been my passion. With an engineering background I worked in the IT Sector In Australia for a while but I always knew it at the back of my mind that it wasn't my calling. A series of fortunate events led me to realize that helping women feel and look beautiful gave me immense satisfaction and then there was no going back. So I followed my passion, gathered my knowledge and created SeaSoul. I took at as my social responsibility to share my insights on the harmful effects of chemicals used in existing skin products which led to numerous diseases and decided to go green and created a line of organic, skin friendly products. 
 
I would be kidding if I said it was easy. My two kids and SeaSoul are both a part of me and as a mother; it is in my nature to never neglect neither of my children. As my work involves a ton of travelling so time management is one of my biggest challenges. I counter it by striving to stay connected to Arhan and Myra whenever I am on tours. I have made arrangements to work from home so that I am there for both, the kids and the work, as much as possible.” 
 
 
Mohita Indrayan, Co-founder and CCO, <keyword id="3086730" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="612-League">612 League</keyword> 
 
(612 League is a Make in India label that focuses primarily on kidswear) 
 
 
 
“I chose this path of being a working mom because as an individual my work gives me immense satisfaction and happiness. I personally feel that the contentment I get from my work makes me a happier and willing mom. 
 
Plus, in today’s world you have teach by example and if I want my daughters to grow up to be strong, capable ,independent and happy women I have to first practise that in my own life. 
 
However, that said, managing work and being a mom is a challenging task as both the roles have their own set of demands on time and energy. When my girls were younger the main challenge was to make them understand why their mother wanted to work. Young kids expect their moms to be with them 24*7 and see a lot of such cases around them in their peer group. It took a lot of effort, reasoning and patience to make them understand, ofcourse giving examples of their play school teachers/educators who also stepped out of their homes to teach them helped a lot. 
 
With school going kids the main challenge today is to balance their activities, classes, concerts, matches, PTMs, exam schedules with work obligations. It gets quite demanding and there are occasions where one has to make an unhappy choice. But the key is to remain guilt free and see the larger picture though I agree it’s easier said than done.” 
 
Way to go, ladies!

New York, Apr 17 (AP) David Beckham's Inter Miami was found by Major League Soccer to have violated league budget rules with its signing of French midfielder Blaise Matuidi, and the team bought out the contract of Argentine midfielder Matías Pellegrini to get back in compliance. MLS said Friday that final results of the investigation, including sanctions, will be announced "in the near future." The league said Pellegrini is being loaned to Fort Lauderdale, the affiliate of Miami in the third tier United Soccer League's League One. That team is Miami's reserve side. The league announced its investigation on March 5. The 33-year-old Matuidi, a member of France's 2018 World Cup champions, joined Miami on Aug. 13 from Juventus. Miami said it used targeted allocation money. Each team was allowed two high-priced designated players whose budget charge could exceed the maximum, plus a third if there was a $150,000 payment to the league split among other teams, under roster rules announced by the league on March 1 last year. Ahead of its first season as an expansion team, Miami announced it signed Argentine Pellegrini as a young designated player from Argentina's Estudiantes on July 26, 2019; Mexican midfielder Rodolfo Pizarro as a designated player from Monterrey on Feb. 17, 2020; and Argentina forward Gonzalo Higuaín as a designated player from Juventus Sept. 18. Matuidi was not announced as a designated player. "Matuidi's compensation was above the compensation limit for a TAM player and he should have been classified as a designated player," MLS said in a statement. "As a result, Inter Miami violated the designated player limit as the team had three designated players in addition to Matuidi during 2020." Pellegrini will be ineligible to play for Miami this season. "We've been working with Matías, his representatives and MLS to reach an agreement, and at this time we believe this is the best option for all parties," Miami sporting director Chris Henderson said in a statement. "Matías is a talented young player with an exciting career ahead. He will remain with the organization as we work on finding an on-field opportunity and next steps for him." In its March 1, 2020, announcement, MLS said its rules for the season gave each team a salary budget of USD 4.9 million for the first 20 players on its roster, although teams were allowed to spread that budget over 18 players, and the league permitted a maximum USD 612,500 salary charge per player. Designated players carry the maximum budget charge even if above USD 612,500 (or USD 306,250 if signed in the summer transfer window). In addition, designated players 20 and younger count a maximum USD 150,000, and from ages 21-23 count a maximum USD 200,000 (USD 150,000 if signed in the summer). Each team could use USD 1,525,000 in general allocation money to "buy down" a player's salary budget charge, and USD 2.8 million in targeted allocation money to sign new players whose salary and acquisition costs were above the maximum salary charge or to convert a designated player to a non-designated player. Beckham, a former England captain and Manchester United star, is Miami's co-owner and president of soccer operations. Jorge Mas is the managing owner. Miami finished 10th among 14 teams in the Eastern Conference with seven wins, 13 losses and three draws, and it lost to Nashville 3-0 in the first round of the playoffs. Miami opens its second season Sunday against the visiting LA Galaxy. (AP) AH AH

MLS concludes Beckham's Miami broke league budget rules

<ul class="summary-list"><li>The Nuggets have what would be the <keyword id="11910343" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="60" keywordseo="nba" source="Orion">NBA</keyword>'s best scoring margin when <keyword id="12998647" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="60" keywordseo="nikola-jokic" source="Orion">Nikola Jokic</keyword> is on the court, but the worst in the league when he sits.</li><li>No other player in the NBA is carrying their team like Jokic.</li></ul>No player in the NBA may mean more to their team than Nikola Jokic does to the <keyword id="12998646" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="60" keywordseo="denver-nuggets" source="Orion">Denver Nuggets</keyword>.The reigning MVP is producing another stellar campaign, averaging 26 points, 14 rebounds, and 6 assists per game on a wildly efficient 61.2% effective field goal percentage, a stat that weighs three-pointers and two-pointers.While Jokic's per-game stats are impressive enough — no other player has ever produced his points, rebounds, and assists numbers while also shooting above 35% from three — there is an advanced metric that shows he may be the most valuable player in the league.<div type="image" title="Nikola Jokic flexes and celebrates during a game." height="1000" width="2000" msid="89027206" hostid="261"></div>According to the NBA's stats site, with Jokic on the floor, the Nuggets boast a 10.0 net rating, meaning they are outscoring opponents by 10 points per 100 possessions when he's on the court.If the Nuggets were able to sustain that number, it would be the best in the league — the Golden State Warriors currently lead the NBA with a net rating of 8.1.Unfortunately for the Nuggets, Jokic does not play entire games. On the season, the 23-20 Nuggets, who are currently 6th in the West, have a net rating of .8, meaning they are largely playing evenly with their opponents. But in those minutes that Jokic is on the bench, the Nuggets have a net rating of -12.3, meaning opponents are outscoring them at a rate of 12 points per 100 possessions.The 11-33 Detroit Pistons currently boast a -9.6 net rating, the worst in the NBA.So, the difference between Jokic playing for the Nuggets and sitting on the bench is the difference between playing like the best team in the league and the worst team.It's not unusual for teams to experience such splits when their star players sit but rarely are they so drastic.Here are some splits other teams experience when their star players sit:<ul><li>Kevin Durant, Brooklyn Nets: 4.5 net rating on the court, -1.0 net rating on the bench</li><li>LeBron James, Los Angeles Lakers: -.6 net rating on the court, -3.2 net rating on the bench</li><li>Stephen Curry, Golden State Warriors: 14.7 net rating on the court, -4.1 net rating on the bench</li><li>Joel Embiid, Philadelphia 76ers: 7.7 net rating on the court, -3.0 net rating on the bench</li><li>Giannis Antetokounmpo, Milwaukee Bucks: 9.2 net rating on the court, -3.7 net rating on the bench</li><li>Chris Paul, Phoenix Suns: 9.0 net rating on the court, 6.7 net rating on the bench</li><li>Ja Morant, Memphis Grizzlies: 1.5 net rating on the court, 4.6 net rating on the bench</li><li>Rudy Gobert, Utah Jazz: 12.9 net rating on the court, -.7 net rating on the bench</li><li>DeMar DeRozan, Chicago Bulls: 6.8 net rating on the court, -6.5 net rating on the bench</li></ul>On/off net rating splits aren't a foolproof method of evaluating a player's value. Basketball players don't go on the court by themselves — those net ratings can be subjected to numerous factors, including who else is on the court.But it's one way to look at how Jokic has propped up an injury-riddled roster. The Nuggets are still without Jamal Murray, their star guard who tore his ACL last April. They are also without Michael Porter Jr., the talented forward who many expected to have a breakout season after signing a $207 million extension with the Nuggets in the offseason.Without their second- and third-best scorers, the Nuggets rely on Jokic to carry the offense, and he's done so.This was evidenced Wednesday night when Jokic posted 49 points, 14 rebounds, and 10 assists to help the Nuggets beat the Clippers, 130-128. The Nuggets were a +15 with Jokic on the floor.<div type="image" title="Nikola Jokic screams after scoring a basket vs. the Clippers in 2022." height="1347" width="1796" msid="89027207" hostid="261"></div>Jokic has long been known as the best passing big man ever, but he also carries a gravity on the floor to help his teammates. In the final seconds of overtime on Wednesday, the Clippers sent a double-team at Jokic to make him give up the ball. Jokic delivered a gorgeous, on-target, cross-court pass to Aaron Gordon for the go-ahead three-pointer as the shot clock expired."I knew the ball was going to come to me because Jok makes the right play, the right pass, even in pressure situations," Gordon said after the game. "He put it on time and on target. All I had to do was catch and shoot."Even in losses, Jokic is impacting the game: during the Nuggets' 23-point loss to the Utah Jazz on Sunday, Jokic was a +5.With Kevin Durant injured and Stephen Curry going through a major shooting slump, the MVP race is as open as ever. The Nuggets may not be a top seed in the West, but if Jokic carries them to a playoff seed at all could give him a leg up to winning the honor again.

Nikola Jokic is staking a claim as the NBA's best player by single-handedly keeping the Nuggets afloat

New Delhi, Apr 7 () Two FIH Pro League ties involving the senior men's team, junior men's Asia Cup and senior women's Asian Champions Trophy are among a host of international hockey events, where India was scheduled to take part, that have been postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In a letter to Target Olympic Podium Scheme (TOPS) CEO Rajesh Rajagopalan, Hockey India informed about the postponement of the events which were a part of its Annual Calendar for Training and Competitions (ACTC). The junior women's Asia Cup (April 6-12 in Kakamigahara, Japan), senior women's team's tour of Germany and Netherlands (April 11 to April 17, April 18 to April 27), men's team's away Pro League matches against Germany and England (April 24 to May 5), junior men's Asia Cup (June 4 to 12, Dhaka), women's Asian Champions Trophy (June 14 to 21, Donghae, Korea) and UCD U-23 6-Nations Tournament involving junior women (June 14 to 27, Dublin) are the events which have been affected by the global pandemic. "The new dates for the above mentioned tournaments will be intimated to SAI once finalised and approved by the International Hockey Federation and the Asian Hockey Federation," Hockey India executive director RK Srivastava said in the letter. "The approved budget in the ACTC for the period up to 30 September 2020 would be utilised for foreign exposures/tournaments once the new scheduled is worked out post COVID-19 situation," he added.

In the past two weeks, the Lakers have stumbled several times, losing to bad teams at a critical juncture of their season. There's little to suggest they can climb out of this slump and rally for the postseason over the next five weeks.Much of the attention, of course, has gone to LeBron James. Perhaps this fate would have been avoided if James hadn't injured his groin on Christmas and missed a month of the season, a stretch that saw the Lakers go 6-12, falling from fourth place in the West.It's natural for there to be questions about whether James, at 34, can still lead a team to a championship, and who he can recruit to help turn things around. Read more: <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/lakers-shutting-down-lebron-james-playoff-chase-2019-3">Some in the NBA world believe the Lakers should shut down LeBron James as the Lakers' playoff chase spirals</a>There has also been a great deal of focus on the Lakers' young core, namely Brandon Ingram, Kyle Kuzma, and Lonzo Ball. All three were heavily involved in Anthony Davis trade rumors during the season and seemed to let it affect their play.Read more: <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/anthony-davis-trade-saga-ugly-lakers-pelicans-2019-2">The aftermath of the Anthony Davis trade saga has turned ugly for the Lakers and the Pelicans</a>Their roles and performance were analyzed continuously, mainly because James has made no secret of his preference for veteran players, and these young players were thrown into the fire, asked to take on more prominent roles to lead the Lakers to the playoffs.However, one of the reasons the Lakers appear set to miss the postseason is something most saw coming since July - the bizarre free agent signings the Lakers made to fill out their roster.Shortly after landing LeBron James on July 1, the Lakers added JaVale McGee, Lance Stephenson, Rajon Rondo, Michael Beasley, and re-signed Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, all to one-year deals.The NBA world immediately questioned these signings. James has thrived with shooters and defenders around him. The Lakers' signings offered very little of that. Instead, they seemed poised to clog the paint and take the ball away from James. It certainly did not help that players like McGee, Stephenson, Rondo, and Beasley are NBA journeymen with questionable on-court value.Read more: <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/lakers-free-agency-signings-after-lebron-baffles-nba-2018-7">The Lakers baffled the NBA world with 4 moves immediately after landing LeBron James</a>The Lakers reasoned these signings by saying they wanted to surround James with more ball-handlers to ease the load on James. They wanted "tough" players with intangibles that could help win a playoff series. They argued that nobody could beat the Golden State Warriors by emulating them. The Lakers zigged where others zagged.<div class="KonaFilter image-container display-table"><div><div class="image on-image">Mark J. Terrill/APThe team the Lakers built around LeBron James didn't make much sense.</div></div></div>There was some reason for the premise. Perhaps it would be better to lighten the load on James in the regular season. The Lakers might not be a sweet-shooting team from deep, but with defense and a fast-paced offense (two things they largely achieved during the season), they could win enough games to make the playoffs.Even still, it was hard not to come back to questioning the construction of the roster. Former Cleveland Cavaliers GM <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/lebron-james-lakers-major-problems-season-david-griffin-2018-8">David Griffin might have said it best</a> when he argued that, if and when the Lakers made the playoffs, the players surrounding James wouldn't work. You want James to have the ball when it matters - he's the single best shot-creator in the game, Griffin said. The Lakers surrounded him with players who couldn't function well without the ball. The example Griffin used is James driving and kicking the ball for ... a Rajon Rondo jumper?James seemingly had input on the roster decisions, and he is not blameless. Team president Magic Johnson met with James when free agency began and spoke to him about potential signings. <a href="http://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/26137383/lebron-first-season-los-angeles-become-disaster">According to ESPN's Ramona Shelburne</a>, James wanted more ball-handlers and tough, veteran players. The Lakers also wanted one-year deals to preserve cap space for this summer.Perhaps the Venn diagram of these types of players was small. The Lakers might have had limited options.<div class="KonaFilter image-container display-table float_right"><div><div class="image on-image">Mark J. Terrill/APThe Lakers young players have generally played well.</div></div></div>Nonetheless, James and the young Lakers mostly did their jobs. Ball, Ingram, and Kuzma have all raised their scoring averages and overall field goal percentage (with declines in three-point percentage) this season. Ingram and Kuzma have increased their free throw rate, and both have shot better at the rim and in the paint.They've struggled at times figuring out their fit next to James. That's not surprising; young players often have growing pains, and both players' role changed dramatically with the presence of James.Over the last 11 games, Ingram has averaged 22 points, 6 rebounds, and 3 assists per game on 53% shooting, 45% from three. Kuzma has averaged nearly 20 points per game on 50% shooting over that stretch.The Lakers' on-off court net rating splits suggest they've been better with James, Ball, Ingram, and Kuzma on the floor, while they've been not so good with their free agency signings.<div class="KonaFilter image-container display-table click-to-enlarge"><div><div class="image on-image"><a title_source="via NBA.com/Stats" title_caption="" class="zoomin" href="https://static-ssl.businessinsider.com/image/5c7eb4b126289828320a1625-960/lakers on court.png"></a>via NBA.com/Stats</div></div></div>One offseason signing is looking worse and worse for the Lakers - signing Beasley for one year, $3.5 million. That's the same deal Brook Lopez got from the Milwaukee Bucks. Lopez was on the Lakers last season, and they let him walk in free agency.<div class="KonaFilter image-container display-table float_right"><div><div class="image on-image">Aaron Gash/APLetting Brook Lopez walk in free agency was a mistake by the Lakers.</div></div></div>This season, Lopez has been one of the best three-point shooters in the league, providing key spacing at the center position for the Bucks while also defending capably for one of the league's best defenses. The Lakers cut Beasley in February.Again, perhaps the Lakers didn't have tons of options for players on one-year deals. But JJ Redick re-signed with the Philadelphia 76ers for one year, $12.5 million - about the same deal the Lakers gave Caldwell-Pope.Maybe Lopez and Redick didn't want to sign with the Lakers. Could that have changed if the Lakers were offering better money than what both players, respectively, got from Milwaukee and Philadelphia? The Lakers could have topped both players' offers. The team might be in a better position today if they had.Injuries have played a part. James has said he hasn't had a season where so many key players have missed time. And it's true - injuries to Rondo and Ball (and of course, James) specifically, have hurt the Lakers chemistry.But every team has injuries and bad luck. The Lakers haven't been good enough to overcome them.Now the Lakers face an offseason with high stakes. They'll try hard to land another star to play with James. As things currently stand, the odds don't look good for landing the top free agents like Kevin Durant, Kyrie Irving, and Kawhi Leonard, based on reports and quotes from the players themselves.Will the Lakers overpay for Tier 2 free agents, like Tobias Harris, Khris Middleton, and more, merely to add talent?They'll also re-explore trades for Anthony Davis. The only problem is, outside of a likely lottery pick, their offer hasn't gotten better. Will the Pelicans change their stance on trading Davis?Striking out in both areas is a real possibility for the Lakers. If they do, the Lakers will have to get creative to turn things around, all while LeBron James' clock ticks.<ul class="read-more-links"><li>Read more from Scott Davis:</li><li><a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/lakers-record-no-playoffs-free-agency-2019-2" data-read-more-link="" data-e2e-name="read-more-link">The Lakers' nightmare scenario suddenly looks more possible than ever</a></li><li><a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/kyrie-irving-celtics-future-bleak-2019-3" data-read-more-link="" data-e2e-name="read-more-link">Kyrie Irving has reportedly become 'disengaged and detached' as the Celtics fall apart, and nobody knows what's going on</a></li><li><a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/top-2019-nba-draft-prospects-2019-3" data-read-more-link="" data-e2e-name="read-more-link">The top 30 prospects in the 2019 NBA Draft</a></li><li> </li></ul> <div class="margin-top"> <h3>NOW WATCH: <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/elon-musk-tesla-roadster-space-spacex-orbit-2019-2">Elon Musk sent a $100K Tesla Roadster to space a year ago.

The Lakers offseason signings that puzzled the NBA world came back to haunt them

<div class="image-container float_right"><div class="image"><a href="http://www.apimages.com/metadata/Index/76ers-Cavaliers-Basketball/b1f668f8a4b444d78700616a95f1b564/7/0">AP</a></div></div>After enduring <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/anthony-bennett-cavaliers-stats-2013-11">an epic cold streak</a> to start the year, No. 1 overall pick Anthony Bennett has been in and out of the rotation for the <keyword id="146674" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="60" keywordseo="Cleveland-Cavaliers">Cleveland Cavaliers</keyword>.
In his team's last 11 games Bennett has averaged just 7.5 minutes per game. He didn't play at all in four of those games. Overall he's averaging 2.4 points per game and shooting 24%.
It's one of the worst starts we've ever seen from a first-overall pick. By all accounts Bennett game into training camp out of shape (partly because of an offseason injury) and he has been playing catch up ever since.
His development has also been hindered by Cleveland's stated goal of making the playoffs this year. Bennett is young and raw, and he needs playing time to acclimate himself to the <keyword id="6361805" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="60" keywordseo="NBA">NBA</keyword> game. The Cavaliers can't give him that time because they're trying (futilely, perhaps) to win games in the short term.
It's a catch-22. Bennett can't get better unless he gets minutes. But can't get minutes unless he gets better. 
His shot chart is ... something. Red means below league average: 
<div class="image-container"><div class="image"><a href="http://stats.nba.com/playerShotchart.html?PlayerID=203461&amp;zone-mode=basic">NBA.com/Stats</a></div></div>
If Bennett is a bust, it's a disastrous development for the franchise.
Cleveland's post-LeBron rebuilding stage was supposed to be over this year. They just had four top-five picks in a row. They kept an asset (Anderson Varejao) that they could have traded for young talent, and they signed veteran free agents with playoff experience (Jarrett Jack).
But right now they're 6-12. Worse than that, they look haphazardly constructed, with redundancies at a number of positions.
Nearly four years after LeBron left, Cleveland could be on the verge of another rebuild - or at least a significant roster tweak.

In his latest tweet, film critic and analyst Taran Adarsh says: #GTPM is better in UAE, below the mark in USA-Canada &amp; UK, poor in Australia and disaster in NZ. Overseas total: $ 980,000 [Rs 6.12 crore]. 
 
If the collection doesn’t pick up soon, Imran could be in trouble. Well, <keyword id="828519" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="80" keywordseo="Ek-Main-Aur-Ekk-Tu">Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu</keyword> (Shakun Batra’s directorial debut in 2012), his last movie opposite Bebo, did well at <keyword id="25892" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="100" keywordseo="box-office">box office</keyword> and grossed a total of $8.1 million in India and abroad. But the year 2013 hasn’t been exactly great and both his films, <keyword id="814061" type="ENTERTAINMENT" weightage="80" keywordseo="Matru-Ki-Bijlee-Ka-Mandola">Matru Ki Bijlee Ka Mandola</keyword> (a <keyword id="825824" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="80" keywordseo="political-satire">political satire</keyword>) and <keyword id="1717335" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="80" keywordseo="Once-Upon-A-Time-In-Mumbai-Dobaara">Once Upon A Time In Mumbai Dobaara</keyword> (a <keyword id="1952408" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="80" keywordseo="Gangster-flick">gangster flick</keyword>) failed to bomb the box office. In contrast, Bebo has done extremely well in Madhur Bhandarkar’s <keyword id="6439486" type="ENTERTAINMENT" weightage="80" keywordseo="heroine">Heroine</keyword> and <keyword id="125922" type="PERSON" weightage="80" keywordseo="Reema-Kagti">Reema Kagti</keyword>’s suspense thriller <keyword id="1952412" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="80" keywordseo="Talaash-The-Answer-Lies-Within">Talaash: The Answer Lies Within</keyword>. Starring <keyword id="6355923" type="PERSON" weightage="80" keywordseo="Aamir-Khan">Aamir Khan</keyword>, Rani Mukerji and Kareena Kapoor, <keyword id="861273" type="ENTERTAINMENT" weightage="80" keywordseo="Talaash">Talaash</keyword> also entered the <keyword id="925977" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="Rs-100-crore-club">Rs 100 crore club</keyword> and raked in a total of Rs 131.78 crore. 
 However, the <keyword id="1952416" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="Lukewarm-response">lukewarm response</keyword> to Gori Tere could be due to the over-used theme. Although Imran sparkles in his romedy (romance-comedy) role as a rich architect and Bebo looks pretty stunning in her desi avatar while she pursues her fiery zeal for social work, the ‘bridging’ between the ‘unlikely’ partners is kind of predictable nowadays. And strangely enough, this flick reminds you of an earlier hit (<keyword id="14521" type="ENTERTAINMENT" weightage="80" keywordseo="Jab-We-Met">Jab We Met</keyword>) where Bebo did it with equal spontaneity and spunk. Gori Tere is sweet and breezy, but the freshness of the <keyword id="1952417" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="80" keywordseo="Shahid-Kapoor-Bebo">Shahid Kapoor-Bebo</keyword> starrer is somewhat missing here and the sparks are not flying. In perspective, Adarsh has tweeted: #BusinessTalk: #RamLeela dominates, #GTPM dismal, #SSTG decent in mass circuits! 
 
And that brings us to the other movie of the week – Gadar director Anil Sharma’s Singh Saab The Great. Sunny Deol-starrer Singh Saab has moved ahead of Gori Tere and grossed around Rs 21.5 crore after four days. The response has been good in North India, especially in Punjab and Delhi, and single screens have seen good turnouts except in the East and the South. 
 In this <keyword id="1952421" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="Action-drama">action drama</keyword>, Sunny plays a collector of a small city in <keyword id="6357713" type="COMPANY" weightage="100" keywordseo="Uttar-Pradesh">Uttar Pradesh</keyword> and values his honesty and integrity more than anything else. He fights corruption and injustice to usher in the change that real-life politicos never stop mentioning. Overall, it features a contemporary and relevant theme that can impact the audience. <keyword id="1855052" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="100" keywordseo="SSTG">SSTG</keyword> [limited screens] is best in USA-Canada, but ordinary elsewhere. Overseas total: approx $400,000 [Rs. 2.50 crore], tweeted Adarsh. 
 Meanwhile, Bhansali’s Ram-Leela is catching up after some initial hiccups. Last week, the Lucknow bench of the <keyword id="48834" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="80" keywordseo="Allahabad-High-Court">Allahabad High Court</keyword> banned the screening of <keyword id="1942272" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="Goliyon-Ki-Raasleela-Ram-leela">Goliyon ki Raasleela Ram-Leela</keyword> in Uttar Pradesh. The court has, however, allowed the producer and director to run the film without using ‘Ram-Leela’ and ‘Raasleela’ in the title. In its ruling, the bench said, “We are only concerned with the use of word ‘Ram-Leela’ in the title of the film, which hurts the sentiments of billions of peoples not only in India but all over the world.” 
 
But in spite of the controversies, Ram-Leela continues to dominate and seems to have overtaken Krrish 3 in the global market. According to Adarsh, #Krrish3 affected by #RamLeela wave. Overseas total *after Weekend 4*: approx $8.5 million [Rs 53.07 crore]. Blockbuster! 
 
As of now (after the 26th day), Krrish 3 has grossed a total of Rs 263.20 crore. But the question is – can Ram-Leela overtake Krrish 3 and become the topmost earner? We need to wait and watch – picture abhi baki hai and the box office war is far from over.
