DIRECTION: Neeraj PathakCAST: Sunny Deol, Preity Zinta, Ameesha Patel,

Shreyas Talpade, Prakash Raj, Arshad VarsiDURATION: 2 hr 20 minsSTORY : A kind-hearted goon decides to get his wife backby making a film on their love story, while his arch nemesis tries to thwart his plans.REVIEW : To cut a long review short, this is Sunny Deol’s‘Dabangg’, but not half as entertaining. The first 10 minutes has some genuinely clever lines and funny moments, but after that it gets tiresome and overburdened with too much plot that the filmmakers have tried to pack together. The second half is where you get all the money shots, but that’s too late.The film would have been fun had the makers stuck to the interesting plot points and cut down the extra flab, of which there is a lot of, in the film.Sunny Deol’s dhai kilo ka haath from the 90s has become dhai ton ka haath in 2018, as he knocks down walls, bends thick iron rods as he beats the goons silly. He literally uses his fists like Thor uses his hammer. In fact, this movie shouldhave been listed in the superhero genre, because Sunny paaji is literally cast as hulk. The only superpower he lacks is flight. This one is best enjoyed sitting in the barber shop as it playson the television behind you.

Title: Born a CrimeAuthor: Trevor NoahGenre: MemoirPublishers: HachettePrice: 319 INRPages: 288 pagesReview: Born a Crime by Trevor Noah is a compilation of beautiful stories from the author's youth. He was born and raised in South Africa. Being born half white and half black, the birth of an "illegal" union, he is "born a crime". Noah's narration sketches his life with his single mother in SouthAfrica.Every story in the book starts with a small note on a topic,which engages the interest of the reader. The author deals with the horrors of post-apartheid South Africa in a matter-of-fact manner as he grew up facing them and he eventually began to see them as routine events. One would feel sorrythat a small child had to live with the burdensome knowledgeof the world being unfair and being full of terrible happenings. However, the book isn't just filled with tales of darknessand suffering. There is a lot of mischief and love in the pages as well. The author’s love and respect for his mother and the way she raised him is evident and one will enjoy seeing the world through his eyes. Trevor Noah grew up to be a comedian and his writing is both insightful and humorous.Born a Crime is an easy and pleasant read. While it touches heavy subjects like racism and cruelty, it views them from a practical lens. Despite suffering from the repercussions of apartheid, theauthor isn't jaded or stuck in the past and his perspectivebrings to fore a pleasurable narrative.

ARIES

It would be wise not to promise more than youcan deliver, especially earlier in the week, andparticularly if you’re hoping to impress some-one. With a very lively blend of energies show-ing up, you could genuinely offer your servicesonly to find that a task is beyond your abilities.If you’re honest about what you can do, yourreputation can remain intact.

The desire for something different could seeyou pursuing new adventures, and this mightencourage you to leave your comfort zone. Itcould even lead you to be a little reckless attimes. Think before you take a gamble or dosomething that you might come to regret later.You could be very optimistic and your hand tois bound to succeed.

You’ll be ready for adventures galore this week,but Monday could see you making a decisionthat turns out to be expensive unless you inves-tigate the details first. It’s all very well andgood to have a great idea, but think it throughbefore you dive in with abandon. You couldhave a romantic or fun time – or perhaps both!

There’s a major focus on your domestic sectorthis week and over the coming weeks that couldinspire change on the home front. However,don’t bite off more than you can chew at thestart of the week because it could prove expen-sive. You and a partner might be eager to makesome changes to your abode, but it could back-fire if it’s too ambitious.

The week ahead could be one of big stories, bigideas, and even bigger plans. Monday mightsee you diving in to help with a project thatturns out to be too much. Make sure you’re notthe only one chipping in and that others arethere to support you in your efforts. If not, youcan always say no.

Go easy with the money on Monday, especiallyif you’re buying gifts for the family or takingthem on a holiday outing. You have a naturallygenerous streak, which is a good thing, butreining in the spending just a little could saveyou a lot. Set yourself a limit and you couldfind that gift buying is much easier.

LIBRA

If you’re decorating your place for Thanksgivingor giving it a makeover in general, it would bebest not to be too ambitious. Keep things simpleand you can still make a great impression as youkeep the workload down to a minimum. Don’tbite off more than you can chew!

Having sobering Saturn and powerful Pluto inyour sign can encourage you to be even morepractical and down to earth. However, with amajor focus on a more spiritual sector of yourchart, you could also find yourself drawn tomake changes on the inside. Doing so can beeven more powerful than trying to alter yourimmediate circumstances.

With assertive Mars presently moving throughyour money zone and angling toward luckyJupiter on Monday, you might be tempted topick up the bill for all your friends, which couldbe a lot. Before you do, check to make sure thatyou really can afford it. If you can, great. Yourgenerosity will be rewarded. If you can’t, don’t.

You might feel as though you can rule theworld, but it’s better to aim a little lowerbecause you could attempt too much at thestart of the week. It might backfire if you takeon responsibilities only because doing so will getyou noticed and enhance your reputation. Onlydo what you can reasonably manage.

Migraine is a headache which is a result of specificchanges within the brain. Migraine can cause severehead pain that is often accompanied by sen

sitivity by light, noise or any kind of smell. However, not all kinds of headaches can be described as Migraine headaches. Migraine headaches are often accompanied with nausea and light sensitivity. Other sensory warnings may include flashes of light, blind spots and vomiting.The pain caused by Migraine can last for several hours and sometimes even days. Migraine may be caused by an abnormal activity causing a temporary alteration in the nerve signals and blood flow in the brain. However, an exact cause for the same is still unknown.There are various factors that contribute or trigger Migraine headaches. Some of these include allergies, fatigue and tiredness, lack of sleep, smoking, any kind of stress, skipping meals, dehydration, alcohol and certain types of medications and drugs.Other than a headache, other symptoms of Migraine are throbbing and pulsating pain in your head, increasing pain during any activity, pain limited to one side of the head, sensitivity to light and sometimes even temperature change.Migraines tend to begin during childhood, adolescence or early childhood. Somecommon risk factors that make you more prone to having

Migraine include family history, age, gender and hormonal changes. Study also shows that women are more prone to Migraine than most men.7 Main Causes of MigraineMigraine is often preceded or accompanied by sensory warning signs such as flashes of light, blind spots, tingling in the arms and legs, nausea, vomiting and increased sensitivity to light and sound.Migraine headaches result from a combination of blood vessel enlargement and the release of chemicals from nerve fibres that coil around those blood vessels.During the headache, an artery enlarges that is located on the outside of the skull just under the skin of the temple (temporal artery). This causes a release of chemicals that cause inflammation, pain and further enlargement of the artery.For a patient of migraine, it is very important to identify what triggers the pain to avoid future attacks. Following are some of the surprising triggers:Stress: Long and working stressful hours that lead to change in eating habits and sleeping hours are one of the

major causes of migraine. People who are overworked suffer from attacks more frequently than the rest. It is always advisable to take ample rest and sleep after a hard day at work. A hot bath and a cup of lemon tea will relax you down and will release the tiredness of the body. Always remember that the idea is to go to sleep with a light head.Weather: Roaming in the sun triggers a migraine attack quicker than anything else. Other than that, drops in barometric pressure, high temperatures and high humidity are some weather conditions that figure in the list of common culprits. Though avoiding the sun is the best way, but if you must go out then do not forget to use an umbrella. And if carrying an umbrella is too fussy for you, then, make it apoint to use a scarf to cover your head.Caffeine withdrawal: Recent studies suggest that people who are addicted to caffeine and reduce the amount of their daily intake to even two cups a day are prone to migraine attacks. The headache occurs several hours after caffeine consumption and is due to caffeine withdrawal. It is always advisable to bring the consumption down gradually and not at one go.Loud music: Listening to music on loud volumes for a really long time is one of the major causes of migraine attacks. The high decibels may lead to a thumping pain which lasts for around 72 hours or more. Keep it low to avoid an attack.Reactive hypoglycemia: High consumption of simple consumption like sugar and pasta can cause migraine. The body starts to produce extra insulin which breaks down the sugar. In return, it causes the blood sugar levels to drop very low. This rise and drop of blood sugar leads to severe headaches.An empty stomach: Going without food for hours leads to gastritis and headache. Skipping breakfast is a commonhabit and a bad one at that. Make sure to start your day with fruits and cereals and lots of water.PreventionThe foremost way to prevent Migraine is to identify what triggers it. You can maintain a diary of all the episodes of the headache and this can help you draw a pattern of what triggers it. Botox can help numb the pain area and provide relief. It can be used when other treatments fail to respond.- Try to keep your blood sugar levels normal. Have small meals throughout the day and avoid staying hungry for long durations of time.
