The power of love

KATHMANDU: Love is powerful enough to transform a bad guy into a gentleman. Johnny Gentleman tells you how, and promises a full dose of entertainment from beginning till the end.
Johnny’s (Paul Shah) profession is to break into jails and help criminals escape. Then the bad guy falls in love with Shree (Aanchal Sharma), a handicraft teacher, at first sight.
Shree reciprocates his feeling, and Johnny leaves his profession. But their sweet love story gets a difficult turn as some unfortunate incidents unravel. This twist makes the movie more interesting as the film develops in the direction that is beyond expectation.
Shah has shed his earlier image of a lean and thin chocolate hero. With a well-built physique and matching get up — leather jacket, grunge pants and shades — he gives that irresistible aura of manliness.
Performance wise, he is at his best as he transforms into different moods through his facial expressions, be it romantic or serious scenes.
Sharma always looks cute and beautiful with simple make-up and curly hair. She is natural as a person with a helpful and loving nature.
The supporting actors are fair enough — Bikash Joshi as Johnny’s roommate always makes you laugh with his funny acting. And Santos S Giri, as police officer Acharya, is a surprise in the film. He is natural as a smart police officer.
The songs are pleasing to listen to and their respective videos are beautiful to watch. Among the five songs Jaba Jaba Timro Saath, sung by Anju Panta and Suresh Lama, is melodious and catchy.
Nitin Chand has directed an engaging flick that boasts of a unique story, right actors and a good synchronisation of incidents.
A must watch.

US trio win Nobel for finding Einstein’s gravitational waves

STOCKHOLM/LONDON:  Three US scientists won the 2017 Nobel prize for physics on Tuesday for opening up a new era of astronomy by detecting gravitational waves, ripples in space and time foreseen by Albert Einstein a century ago. The work of Rainer Weiss, Barry Barish and Kip Thorne crowned half a century of experimental efforts by scientists and engineers.Measuring gravitational waves offers a new way to observe the cosmos, helping scientists explore the nature of mysterious objects including black holes and neutron stars. It may also provide insight into the universe’s very earliest moments. The first detection of the waves created a scientific sensation when it was announced early last year and the teams involved in the discovery had been widely seen as favourites for Tuesday’s prize. “We now witness the dawn of a new field: gravitational wave astronomy,” Nils Martensson, acting chairman of the Nobel Committee for Physics, told reporters. “This will teach us about the ...

Liquid cats, crocodile bets and didgeridoos win Ig Nobel science prizes

CAMBRIDGE, MASSACHUSETTS:  Scientists taking on the deep questions of whether cats are liquid or solid, how holding a crocodile influences gambling and whether playing the didgeridoo can help cure snoring were honored Thursday at the Ig Nobel Prize spoof awards. The prizes are the brainchild of Marc Abrahams, editor of the Annals of Improbable Research, and are intended not to honor the best or worst in science, but rather to highlight research that encourages people to think in unusual ways. “We hope that this will get people back into the habits they probably had when they were kids of paying attention to odd things and holding out for a moment and deciding whether they are good or bad only after they have a chance to think,” Abrahams said in a phone interview. Some of the honorees tend towards the spurious: French researcher Marc-Antoine Fardin’s 2014 study “Can a Cat Be Both a Solid and a Liquid?” was inspired by internet photos of cats tucked into glasses, buckets...

Mexicans dig through collapsed buildings as quake kills 217

MEXICO CITY:  Police, firefighters and ordinary Mexicans dug frantically through the rubble of collapsed schools, homes and apartment buildings early Wednesday, looking for survivors of Mexico’s deadliest earthquake in decades as the number of confirmed fatalities stood at 217. Adding poignancy and a touch of the surreal, Tuesday’s magnitude-7.1 quake struck on the 32nd anniversary of the 1985 earthquake that killed thousands. Just hours earlier, people around Mexico had held earthquake drills to mark the date. One of the most desperate rescue efforts was at a primary and secondary school in southern Mexico City, where a wing of the three-story building collapsed into a massive pancake of concrete slabs. Journalists saw rescuers pull at least two small bodies from the rubble, covered in sheets. Volunteer rescue worker Dr. Pedro Serrano managed to crawl into the crevices of the tottering pile of rubble that had been Escuela Enrique Rebsamen. He made it into a classroom...
