Hollywood’s brawn brigade...

They are the men who gave Hollywood its brawn. These are not your ordinary action heroes, they are action heroes on steroids (oops, that was Arnold Schwarzeneggertotally pun unintended!). Both were born in the month of July and while one brought a cyborg to life through the Terminator movie franchise, the other epitomised the underdog hero so well portrayed in the character Rocky Balboa in the Rocky franchise. Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sylvester Stallone’s immaculately chiseled bodies were synonymous with Hollywood action for good part of the 1980s and 1990s and their box office draw was simply unmatched.

The body building fanatic, Arnold started out from a small hamlet of Thal in Austria, and in Sylvestress Stallonetwo decades went through an in credible Hollywood tale, catapulting himself to the top of the pile of Hollywood pop action heroes. For a man with an accent and effectively zero acting background, Arnold’s achievement is as remarkable as it is unique. More so considering the fact that he is currently the Governor of the State of California, only the second actor after Ronald Reagan to be elected to that position. “The most perfectly developed man in the history of the world,” was how the Guinness Book of World Records described this man who started out as a bodybuilder, winning the Mr. Europe title followed by Mr. Universe title four times and the Mr. Olympia title seven (!) times, six times in succession from 1970-1975! Mr. Universe was his ticket to America where he chased his dream of becoming an actor. His breakthrough role came in Conan where he played the eponymous character – a role almost modelled after him! Then came the sci-fi Terminator, where his portrayal of the killing machine earned him box office success.

Once again, the Indian Left has proved its hidebound approach

“By allowing the aircraft carrier, India is violating its own policy of not allowing any warship carrying deadly weapons”, said CPIOnce again, the Indian Left has proved its hidebound approach secretary D Raja. His objection was more vehement because the ship belonged to America. But, he was wrong on this count also, as India has in the past, not only allowed more than 10 warships to dock on its shores but has also conducted joint naval exercises with American & European warships in Indian waters.

Moreover, with the crew of the American leviathan spending on an average approximately $1 million per day during the four day stay and an almost similar amount is being earned through repairs & maintenance, the Department of Revenue has no reason to complain. The Left parties need to grow up; stop nitpicking & concentrate on drafting better policy to take the nation ahead.
