The coronavirus pandemic has been harsh on all sections of society, but it has been harsher on various tribal communities. Ever since the pandemic began, a number of individuals and organisations have come forward to lend their helping hand to these communities. While some took the responsibility of supplying ration and food packets, others decided to provide them with necessary medicines.

Now, popular actress Malavika Mohanan has also joined the league to do her bit. She has started an initiative to provide education to children in tribal communities in Kerala. Talking to Instagram, she wrote, “This is something that has been very close to my heart since I first visited the tribal communities in Wayanad back in 2015. I want to help them get educated, empower them so that they can carve a better future for themselves and help their poverty-stricken families and community as they do not have access to even basic healthcare and education.”

She continued, “I am trying to raise these funds to educate children in these tribal areas of Wayanad, Kerala. There is a dire need for smartphones and laptops for students of the Odappallam High School, Wayanad, Kerala, who belong to the 22 tribal communities from around there. Because of the lockdown, the only way for them to continue their education is through online studies. With your donations, we will be able to provide at least 1 laptop and 1 smartphone for each tribal community, which will benefit 221 students in all. Our dream is to ensure each child gets one device to study, but we know that even these 2 devices shared by 10 children is a great start. I am grateful to you & appeal to your beautiful hearts to donate. Every rupee counts (sic).”

On the work front, Malavika Mohanan next stars in an untitled Tamil film, which Karthick Naren is directing. She has also signed Excel Entertainment’s Bollywood film Yudhra, co-starring Siddhant Chaturvedi.

Scarlett Johansson slams Oscars for snubbing 'Avengers: Endgame' for Best Picture and calls out lengthy award shows

Scarlett Johansson has once again voiced her frustration over the Oscars overlooking Avengers: Endgame for the Best Picture category. The actress, known for portraying Black Widow in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, expressed her disbelief during an interview. She questioned how a film as groundbreaking and successful as Endgame managed to receive only one nomination, for visual effects, at the 2020 Academy Awards.

“It was an impossible movie that shouldn’t have worked, yet it did, both as a film and as a cultural moment,” Johansson remarked. She pointed out that the film not only pushed creative boundaries but also became one of the highest-grossing movies of all time. Despite its global impact and critical acclaim, Endgame remained absent from major Oscar categories, including Best Picture.

Lois Lane confronts Superman as Lex Luthor invades the Fortress in the new trailer for James Gunn’s 'Superman'

James Gunn’s Superman is shaping up to be more than just another cape-and-costume affair. The latest trailer doesn’t just show off epic battles or a parade of DC heroes; instead, it throws us straight into a tense one-on-one between the Man of Steel and the woman who refuses to let him off the hook.

In this new version, Clark Kent, played by David Corenswet, is already known to Lois Lane as Superman. There’s no awkward glasses game here, just straight talk! And Lois isn’t starstruck. She’s sharp, sceptical, and not afraid to press him on the ethics of playing global policeman. Her questions about his involvement in a foreign conflict cut through the usual superhero fanfare. Was he saving lives, or stepping over a line?

Indian stand up star Shamik Chakrabarti makes hit UK debut at Soho Theatre

In his debut UK show – and first international performance – Indian stand-up comedian Shamik Chakrabarti took to the stage at Soho Theatre, London, with a deceptively low-key presence that quickly revealed a sharp wit beneath his ‘sensible nerd’ exterior.

The aptly titled Despite Appearances saw the bespectacled comic defy expectations. His softly spoken, academic demeanour gave way to punchlines filled with sly irony, sarcasm and culturally specific references that regularly caught the audience off guard.
