Kangana Ranaut and Rajkummar Rao starrer Mental Hai Kya has been embroiled in controversies since the past few weeks. Reportedly, Indian Psychiatrist Society (IPS) had issues with the title of the film and also the film’s treatment of mental health conditions. However, now reportedly, CBFC has passed the film with a U/A certificate, but the title of the film will be changed.

Recently, Kangana Ranaut attended a meeting with the members of CBFC for Mental Hai Kya. Reportedly, the jury cleared the film with minor changes and almost without any cuts. However, the title of the film will be changed and Balaji Motion Pictures will announce it soon.


When a few weeks ago, the new motion poster of the film was released, producer Ekta Kapoor had written a disclaimer about the film on Twitter. She had tweeted, “DISCLAIMER :D film in no way marginalises d mental health community & d title of our film doesn’t intend 2 disregard any1 sentiments. It is sensitive towards d issue of mental illness. A fictional thriller dat encourages you 2 celebrate Ur uniqueness & embrace Ur individuality.”

Now let’s wait and watch what will be the new title of the movie.

Kangana Ranaut and Rajkummar Rao will be seen together on the big screen again after a gap of five years. The two starred together in 2014 release Queen. Mental Hai Kya is slated to release on 26th July 2019. Even because of its release date, the film had faced controversies as earlier, Hrithik Roshan starrer Super 30 was also slated to release on the same day. However, the later the makers of Super 30 shifted their film to 12th July.

Now Mental Hai Kya will be clashing with Diljit Dosanjh, Kriti Sanon, and Varun Sharma starrer Arjun Patiala. The trailer of Arjun Patiala has been released and it has received a good response. Reportedly, the Kangana and Rajkummar starrer was going to get a new release date because of the controversies.

Beyond logic: Exploring the power of clairvoyance and yoga

Beyond logic: Exploring the power of clairvoyance and yoga

Ashwini Guruji

The world of the spirit begins when logic ends. In 2011, I was invited by the prestigious Indian Medical Association (IMA) Mumbai to demonstrate clairvoyance and the power of yoga. It would suffice to say that the doctors while respectful did not believe in the accuracy of this ancient science. They gave clairvoyants of Dhyan Foundation randomly selected images of some sick and some healthy people. The clairvoyants in a matter of 10 minutes were able to not just identify the sick but also pinpoint the exact diseased area.

In the words of the IMA past-president Dr. Lele, “Your clairvoyant’s predictions by looking at the pictures of the subjects, which were provided by the IMA, are 80% accurate, which is good enough.” At the event there was also a yoga performance and the pulse of the practitioner was noted before and after the asanas. The pulse dropped by 15 counts. In fact, regarding the dropping of the pulse rate the IMA has even given a written validation that the pulse rate of a practitioner dropped by 15 counts after 50 minutes of strenuous asanas. They said, “We have today changed for the positive, our opinion on Yoga and a Yogi.” (The entire event is recorded and is available for viewing.) So what is clairvoyance? To understand this let us understand Creation.
