Vin Diesel happy about the success of Avengers Infinity War

Actor Vin Diesel says being a producer allowed him to be more accountable for the overall film. “Being a producer allowed me to be more accountable for the overall picture. All of our characters shine so well,” Diesel said in a statement to IANS.

“That’s a testament to wanting everyone in the cast to shine, wanting the director to be the best. I like walking away from a film and everyone in the film being applauded for doing the best work,” he added.

Diesel has backed films like Fast & Furious, The Last Witch Hunter, xXx: Return of Xander Cage, Riddick and Hitman.

At the moment, the actor is happy about the success of Avengers: Infinity War. He is the voice of Groot from the universe of Guardians of the Galaxy. Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2 will air in India on Star Movies on Sunday.

Talking about Avengers: Infinity War, Diesel said: “It is a really good family to be a part of and I don’t think we ever lost our sense of family. The Marvel universe was so welcoming that we just came in and felt so grateful to be there.”

As Groot, Diesel just has one line to say: “I am Groot”. The actor says it is tricky to get the emotions right.

He said: “When I came into the recording booth although you would assume that there would be only three words in that recording booth ‘I am Groot’, but there was like a 50 page document on the left side of every page was ‘I am Groot’ five to ten times on the right side was a paragraph or a sentence about what he was really trying to say, and so the game quickly became taking what he was really trying to say and distilling it down.

“It was tricky not hard but tricky and fun and challenging.”

Emma Thompson: I was always paid less than my male counterparts

Emma Thompson says she was always paid less than her male colleagues. The 59-year-old actor-writer said women are still treated as “second-class citizens”. She also advocated to publish salaries to reveal the gender pay gap. “I was always paid less than my male counterparts. Publishing figures is the first step. “It’s a forensic way of looking at how women are second-class citizens, and I appreciate that because it’s not emotional. This is the fact: this person does the same work for less money, and that’s just wrong,” Thompson told Good Housekeeping magazine.

Dhadak review: There is no ‘dhak dhak’ in this Janhvi Kapoor and Ishaan Khatter starrer

Dhadak movie cast: Ishaan Khatter, Janhvi Kapoor, Ashutosh Rana, Kharaj Mukherjee, Aditya Kumar Dhadak movie director: Shashank Khaitan Dhadak movie rating: One and a half stars Remaking Sairat for mainstream Bollywood was always going to be a tough ask. The edges of that searing 2016 tale of love-in-the-time-of-caste were necessarily going to have to be blunted and softened, because too much ‘realism’ is hard for us to handle. There isn’t a filmmaker working in India who can match Sairat director Nagraj Manjule’s appetite for recreating raw slap-in-the-face directness for the screen: the only one who can match him is Sanal Sashidharan, and neither of them work, for obvious reasons, in Bollywood, where dirt needs to be proffered up in pretty ribbons. What I was expecting from this Karan Johar production, I got– a polish-up-the-muck aesthetic to make it palatable for mainstream audiences. What I didn’t get, was feeling. That sense of playfulness ...
