A concrete br- Page 8 Page 7 idge which cost a Romanian village $ 1,40,000 collapsed a day before its official inauguration at Scortoasa, Buzau county — an area known for its muddy volcanoes. Says Luminita Bacanu, head of the local council’s technical depart- ment, ‘‘We can’t speak about any design or execution fa- ult. We fear that a new volcano might have appeared in the area.’’ Local tradition in Buzau has it that the muddy volcanoes should not be disturbed because human interv- ention could provoke eruptions. Well, the bridge might have collapsed, but the volcanoes are still intact.
OF INDIA THANK GOD IT’S SUNDAY Photos: SUNIL KATARIA MANOJ KESHARWANI THE SHOLAY OF DHARMENDRA’S LIFE Arc lights, silver screen... but in reality, this actor’s life has not been cushioned by a filmi script. Today’s celluloid icon was once a rustic youngster who overcame paternal opposition to chase his dreams in tinsel town. Success has come to him only after years of rejection by showbiz and upheavals in his personal life. Yet, Bollywood’s original macho man is as ready for new challenges as he was in his heyday.

The wait is over and Kal Ho Naa Ho CHALEGI NAHI CHALEGI? has been released. The film promises to be one of the best love stories in recent times. So, is the well-packaged venture good enough? We have some views:
CHEENA SAINI: Simply marvellous — that’s how the film could well be described. The concept itself is great with an ideal mix of comedy and emotions. Karan Johar has done a good job. Shah Rukh is as good as always. Saif and Preity are good too. And yes, the songs are extremely good and very hummable. Maahi Ve is exceptionally good.
SACHIN RASTOGI: Everything about the film is just right — the story,performances and most important of all the ending, are beautifully handled. The title song is good and so are the others. Javed Akhtar has done a good job with the lyrics. Amongst the actors, Jaya is very different and likeable. Kal Ho, will appeal to all age-groups.
ARTI SHAH: The film is good. The best thing about it is the star-cast and, of course, the songs that are just amazing. Amongst the stars, Saif Ali Khan and Jaya Bachchan are tremendous. This is not to say that the others are any less. The story is extremely touching. A good film after a long time. It should definitely do well at the box-office.
HITESH BHATIA: Well, I think the movie is just about okay. Although the comedy is good, the film goes overboard with the sob-sob bit. The direction could have been a little better.The second half is quite slow but the ending is good. However, Preity Zinta is very good. It is just a one-time watch film for me.
