Mission Mangal starring Akshay Kumar, Vidya Balan, Sonakshi Sinha, Taapsee Pannu, Sharman Joshi, Kirti Kulhari and Nithya Menen is undoubtedly one of the most awaited films of the film. The teaser of the film was launched a few days ago, and it has received an amazing response. Now, moviegoers have been waiting for the trailer and the makers have revealed that the trailer of the film will be out on 18th July 2019.

Akshay Kumar took to Twitter to share a new poster of Mission Mangal and revealed the trailer release date of the film. He tweeted, “Ek kahaani, jisne Indian space science ki paribhasha hi badal di!

Directed by Jagan Shakti, Mission Mangal is inspired by the true story of Mars Orbiter Mission also known as Mangalyaan. The film will mainly focus on the women behind the successful mission by ISRO.

The teaser of Mission Mangal, which was launched a few days ago, had impressed us a lot. In those 45 seconds, the makers made us eager to watch the film and we surely have high expectations from the trailer and the movie.

Mission Mangal is slated to release on 15th August 2019. It will be clashing with Batla House and Saaho. While the former stars John Abraham and Mrunal Thakur in the lead roles, the latter has Prabhas and Shraddha Kapoor in the lead roles. The trailer of Batla House has already been released and it has received a good response. Now we wait for the trailer of Mission Mangal and Saaho.

Last year, Akshay Kumar and John Abraham had clashed at the box office with their respective films, Gold and Satyameva Jayate. Both the films had done well at the box office. It will be interesting to see who will win the box office race this Independence Day.

K Anis Ahmed’s 'Carnivore' serves up satire, class war and moral rot

From the blood-soaked backstreets of Dhaka to the polished kitchens of Manhattan’s elite, K Anis Ahmed’s new novel Carnivore is as imaginative as it is provocative. A satirical thriller steeped in class tension, culinary obsession and primal survival, Carnivore follows Kash, a Bangladeshi immigrant-turned-chef who launches a high-end restaurant serving exotic meats – only to become embroiled in a sinister world of appetite and ambition.

But this is no simple tale of knives and recipes. Ahmed – a seasoned journalist, publisher, and president of PEN Bangladesh – brings a sharp eye to the grotesqueries of power and privilege. In this exclusive interview with Eastern Eye, he speaks about his passion for food, the moral murkiness of his characters, and why even the most ordinary people can spiral into extraordinary darkness.

Mahima Sharma brings bold new energy to cricket’s old guard

As the world prepares for the second edition of the World Championship of Legends (WCL), one of its most exciting franchises, the Meteora England Champions, is being led by a compelling force. Mahima Sharma is not just making her mark in cricket – she is quietly redefining leadership in a male-dominated industry.

In an industry long regarded as a boys’ club, Sharma brings a refreshingly unapologetic approach. She is strategic, deeply rooted in her love for the game, and proudly feminine. “Cricket has always felt like home to me,” she says. “I come from a culture where cricket is an emotion, and stepping into this role carries a great deal of responsibility. Growing up, I saw very few women leaders in cricket. To now find myself in this position 15 years later feels like coming full circle.”
